Chapter 925: Warehouse
Wu Song understood what he meant, "I don't know, at that time, I just asked about the previous mine owner, the Jin Wu Sect, and I didn't ask too much about this salt mine."
This person doesn't look like he was killed, and there is no sign of a hand in this place, so I think the reason for the abandonment of the salt mine must have nothing to do with the dead man. ”
They surveyed around the bones again, but still found no useful clues.
Then, they continued on their way.
According to the instructions on the map, this salt mine is divided into three layers, one layer deeper than the other. The deepest layer is located 200 meters below the ground.
Wu Song: The place where they are going is the deepest layer.
Wu Song believes that the corresponding place is the ancient ruins, so it should be in the deepest place.
They walked along the mine road, and the middle mine road did not turn to the side. After walking for about half an hour, the three of them suddenly saw a light not far ahead.
The three of them glanced at each other, they had walked in the mine for such a long time, and they all relied on the flames that Wu Song had turned into with the phoenix chirping to illuminate them.
They believed that the lights installed in the salt mine itself must have been destroyed long ago.
So, the light in front must have been made by someone.
The three of them were secretly on guard, slowed down, and walked forward.
Soon, they came to an underground space. The place is supposed to be an underground warehouse in the salt mine, surrounded by wooden chests, some of which are uncovered, and which contain blocks of salt.
This place is supposed to be used for temporary stacking of mined salt.
The light they saw before was a torch stuck in a wooden box in the center of the warehouse.
The three of them came to the torch and looked around, but there was no one in sight.
Gangfeng was a little puzzled, "This torch looks new, it hasn't been burning for long, it should be someone here." ”
Wu Song looked around and frowned, "Everyone be careful, there is something strange here." ”
Before Wu Song's words fell, more than 20 people jumped out from behind the wooden box next to him, surrounding Wu Song and the three of them.
"Hahahaha," one of them let out a smug laugh, "Brother Wu Song, don't come unharmed." ”
The person at the head was the thin man who had some holidays with Wu Song before.
Wu Song looked at him coldly, "It's you, it seems that those righteous colleagues are still light, and they should really beat you to the point that you can't walk." ”
The thin man's face was dusty and bruised, from being beaten by others on it before.
Wu Song's words hit him in the sore spot, and the thin man was furious, "You bastard, if it weren't for you, how would I be so embarrassed, everyone go up together and kill them!"
The people around picked up their steel knives and rushed towards Wu Song.
The three of them showed their magic skills and fought with these people.
Wu Song ran the Celestial Elephant Fist and punched a person in the chest. The man's body flew out like a broken sack and fell to the ground several meters away.
The other picked up the steel knife and slashed at Wu Song's back.
Wu Song's right foot turned, and his body turned in a half circle. The steel knife grazed Wu Song's body and slashed down, Wu Song waited for the steel knife to fall to the lowest place, and his right fist swung out like lightning, smashing Huang Long and hitting the man's face.
Listening to a series of clicking sounds, a large amount of blood flowed from the man's face, and the whole person fell on his back.
The third man was about to pick up the steel knife when he heard a thud, and a piece of rubble fell from the top of his head, knocking the man to the ground.
It turned out that Gao Tian launched the exercise, and his palms sent out two palm winds, hitting the top of the man's head, breaking the stone wall there.
Gao Tian was surrounded by four people, his palms flew up, and the blazing palm wind slapped out, hitting the four people like a gust of wind.
The clothes of the four people burned in the blink of an eye, and the four of them couldn't help but let out a miserable cry, rolling on the ground, trying to extinguish the flames on their bodies.
The thin man took a few people and besieged Gangfeng.
The wind was running the exercises, and a fierce wind blew around the body. As long as those people are close to the strong wind, they will be carried by this strong wind.
Gangfeng saw the opportunity and slapped it out, and a strong wind hit one of them with fierce force.
It was as if the man had been punched so hard that he flew out, blood spurting out of his mouth, and he couldn't see if he would survive.
The others saw that the three of them were so brave, and they were afraid in their hearts.
The thin man was the most clever, and when he saw that the momentum was not good, he didn't care about the others, so he turned around and ran towards another exit.
Gao Tian hated a treacherous person like a thin man the most, and when he saw that he was going to escape, his palms came out together, sending out a fierce palm wind.
The thin man saw the wind coming from the sky, and with a turn of his left heel, the whole person turned to the side like a spinning top.
The wind of the high heavens flew past the thin man and hit a stone wall not far away.
This palm wind is extremely fierce, even if it is a hard stone wall, it is also unbearable.
I heard a loud bang, and a large piece of the stone wall shattered. A cloud of gas suddenly burst out of the broken stone wall, and in the blink of an eye, it diffused.
Wu Song suddenly smelled a pungent smell, and his head was dizzy.
The gas was poisonous, Wu Song shouted, "Cover your mouth and nose and get out of here quickly." ”
The wind over there had also detected the poisonous gas, and the wind around the body was even faster, blowing away the poisonous gas that was surging over.
Gao Tian, on the other hand, was a moment late, had already inhaled the poisonous gas, his body was shaking, and he was about to fall.
Wu Song ran to his side, put Gao Tian on his back, and ran towards the exit.
The strong wind emitted a gust of wind and blew away the poisonous gas, and followed Wu Song's side.
Half of the rest of the people had fallen to the ground at this time, and they didn't know what to do. The other half, barely able to control themselves, is running towards another exit.
In the process of salt mine formation, a special gas accumulates in the salt mine. When this gas is inhaled by the human body, it can suffocate people for a short time.
If a person falls, if there is no one to save him, then he will surely die.
Wu Song and the others inadvertently released such a gas, which led to the current anomaly.
But fortunately, Wu Song has a thousand scriptures and is not afraid of gas erosion.
Wu Song and the others came to the exit smoothly and entered another mine road.
They rushed out for three miles in one go, and it was estimated that they had reached a safe place before they stopped.
Gao Tian had already fainted, and after Wu Song's pulse, he knew that he was just suffocating and fainting, and other than that, there was nothing else.
He injected a trace of Yuan Force into Gao Tian, and soon, Gao Tian woke up.
The trio then continued to the lowest floor.
With a map in hand, they easily know where they are and then find their route.
They were on the second floor at this time, not far from the third.
Along the way, they didn't meet anyone else. To get from the second floor to the third floor, you need to walk through a tunnel and then reach a gondola, after which you can land on the gondola and go to the third floor.
The three of them crossed the mine and came to the gondola. When they got there, they realized that something was wrong.
The hanging basket is a cage-like thing with a radius of four or five meters, and the person who wants to go down enters the hanging basket, and then the person next to him activates the mechanism, and the hanging basket will land.
And now, Wu Song and the others found that the hanging basket was gone, and they only saw a thick iron chain on the vertical beam.
It is estimated that after the salt mine was abandoned, the hanging basket fell into disrepair and had fallen.
Wu Song stood on the edge of the pit where the gondola had landed, and looked down.
It was so dark in the pit that you couldn't see what was inside. According to the map markings, the crater is about 50 meters deep.
Gangfeng stood beside Wu Song, "What should we do next?"
Wu Song was a little helpless, "It seems that we can only climb down." ”
Wu Song removed three torches from a nearby wooden shelf, lit them, and divided them among the other two.
Ready together, the three of them entered the hole.
The pit is artificially excavated, and the surface is very smooth. Moreover, the surface of the pit wall has been seeping water out for many years, and the surface is covered with slippery moss, which cannot be grasped by simply using your hands.
Wu Song turned into a Yuanli long sword in his hand and pierced into the stone wall to fix his body.
Gangfeng took out a small knife that he carried with him, and like Wu Song, inserted it into the stone wall to fix his body.
Gao Tian launched the exercises, and a blazing breath was generated on his hands. The moss and water stains on the stone wall were burned dry in an instant. In this way, it will no longer affect the climbing of the high heavens.
The three of them climbed down the hole, and the beginning was very smooth.
After climbing down more than 30 meters, the three of them suddenly heard a hissing sound nearby.
The sound was like the whisper of a ghost, and it made people break out in a cold sweat when they heard it.
Wu Song looked around, trying to know what was making that sound.
The crater was huge, and the three of them stayed on one side of the pit wall, and the light of the torches could only illuminate part of it, so the rest of the world could not be seen.
Wu Song launched the phoenix scream, turned into a ball of flame in his hand, and threw it out with all his might.
The flames flew to the opposite pit wall and slammed into the pit wall, exploding in a cloud of sparks.
Under the reflection of the sparks, the three of them saw a gruesome scene. On the opposite side of the pit wall, there were long black snakes crawling.
The kind of hissing they heard was the sound of the long snakes spitting out letters.
The serpents were in a commotion when they were lit by the fire. Wu Song and the three of them saw them, and they also saw Wu Song and the three of them.
The long snakes wriggled and swam towards Wu Song from both sides.
"You guys go away! I'll stop them!" Wu Song shouted.
He erupted a stream of flame from his mouth and swept across the serpents that struck.
Blazing flames swept over the long snakes, and immediately the sound of burnt flesh rang out.
The hissing died down for a moment, but then the voice revived.
The long snakes that were burned by the flames had their skin peeled open from the flesh on their bodies. However, those damaged skin are coming off at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.
The injured snake quickly finished molting, and from the dead skin, a new body was born.
Wu Song secretly said that it was not good, these long snakes were more difficult to deal with than he imagined.
