Honeybee 2-47: Sinkhole
The three of them slowly lurked under the sinkhole, and they got farther and farther away from the entrance of the cave, and their vision slowly began to become lighter and darker.
It turns out that the inside of this sinkhole is not as bad as expected, it is close to the sea, and the green vegetation in the Qiu forest area on the ground is still relatively humid and cool. Although the light is getting worse and worse due to the dive, you can still see the rock wall around this large crater crawling with vegetation. If you are an ordinary person, with a little training, you can climb up and down along the vegetation on the rock wall.
It's located on the coast, so the heat and humidity make the area hot. But when I went down to this sinkhole, it slowly cooled down, and the temperature became lower the further I went.
Based on the experience of the previous dives of the Onijuku, they have been sinking for almost 2 hours. According to the ghost house, it won't be long before you reach a platform where you can rest for a while.
Sure enough, the three of them soon came to this platform, and they had already turned on the emergency light source they carried with them, which was the light source rod that they had studied when they were diving and exploring in the Vermilion Bird Country. This is a light-emitting stick that can be attached to clothes, but because of the capabilities of the Technology Development Bureau, these light-emitting sticks can last for 24 hours, but the light range does not exceed 7 or 8 meters. At least it's good for the environment here, at least the three of them can see each other clearly.
But when they looked up, it was already pitch black overhead, and they couldn't see the top anymore. And it's already a little chilly here, and it seems that it's deep underground.
Mijun asked softly, "How deep is this?"
Onijuku replied with a sneer, "No one in the Suzaku Kingdom has ever been able to dive to the end...... You ask me, how do I know?"
Sijun thought for a moment and said, "Now these two hours have caused us to lose a lot of qi. I have a way to speed up the process. ”
Silas's "expanded" state of this kind of diving operation is not as good as Onijuku and Sijun, it is already almost to the limit, tired and panting, she said, "It's only 2 hours...... I'm dying...... What else can be done...... Can you do it in the end?"
Sijun said, "Let's jump down directly......"
"No! We've had Praetorian Volunteer Warriors try before, but they're gone...... Even if you can control yourself with 'expansion'...... But in the dark, who can guarantee that the next second will be able to reach the end? and it is impossible to keep the qi open to protect themselves...... So they jumped off and basically died......"
Obviously, thinking of this, the ghost is a little sad and blames himself.
But Sijun said, "It's simple. Let's rest here for a while and wait for Silas to recover a little. Then I'll be the first one, and you guys will follow me, and you'll be separated from each other as long as you can see the glowing rod on me. As soon as I have any other reactions, you can just follow suit. ”
Onisu exclaimed, "You jumped the first one, don't you want to die?"
"Death?huh...... I don't want it...... I want to live well. I'm thinking, since King Chen is one step ahead of us, it seems that he has also found a way to go down. They can all go down, why can't we?"
"You're such a madman......... You people in the Blue Dragon Kingdom are all crazy......"
Sijun sneered, "Lord Ghost, I don't want to die, and I can't die." The first one I jumped naturally came up with the idea. ”
Onijuku and Silas were surprised, "You already have a way?"
Sijun nodded and said confidently, "Hmm...... So we don't have much time, so let's take a break and recover a little. Especially Silas, you ......."
The three of them sat in silence, quickly adjusting their breath.
After more than ten minutes, Sijun stood up and walked to the edge of the small platform. Onisu and Silas looked at him, and Silas had only recovered a small part of his anger at the moment, but seeing Sijun's actions, he knew that it was time.
Each of the three of them brought 10 glowing sticks, and each took out one and stuck it to their clothes. Sijun took out another 5 from his bag and looked back at the two of them. At this time, they already have a tacit understanding, and they understand each other's meaning.
Mikun nodded at them, and they responded in response. You're ready.
So Sijun pinched a glowing rod and threw it towards the middle of the sinkhole. The glowing rod quickly falls downward, illuminating the surrounding area as it falls. Then he pinched and lit up all four at the same time, and threw them around, and they fell rapidly, and the place where they fell was even brighter.
But as they fell, the light grew farther and farther away, and they were about to disappear. At this time, Sijun jumped down directly, but he didn't use qi as an assist, and fell directly into free fall.
Silas was taken aback, but Onijuku understood what he was doing. I see, this method works, why didn't you think of it back then?
So Onisu took Silas to the platform and watched him fall. There is a glowing rod glued to his body, and he can see it clearly. But as Sijun fell, the glowing rod gradually moved away, and when it was almost out of sight, Onisu jumped down with Silas.
It just so happened that Onisu and Silas could vaguely see the figure of Sijun, and Sijun could vaguely see the light of the falling glowing rod below. In this way, the three of them once again quickly dived into the depths of the sinkhole.
I don't know how long it took, but I felt that the falling speed was very fast, and the reaction wind and cut on my face still hurt a little. And the wind became colder and colder, and the blow cut on the face was like a knife cut, and slowly the face began to be paralyzed and unconscious.
Just when he was about to lose his support, Sijun saw that the light below had been kept at a certain distance, but the light suddenly stopped, and quickly got closer and closer to him. Sijun understood that the 5 glowing rods he had lost were in the end, so he immediately urged the state of "expansion", and many air masses were born under his feet to slow down his falling speed.
Seeing that Mikun had changed, the two of them hurriedly used the same method.
Finally, the three of them landed safely underground.
Ghost Su also wanted to can't help but praise Xia Sijun, this kid has really grown a lot, and his mind is easy to use. Over the years, no one in Suzaku Country has thought of using this method.
However, a few people eased up, and the 5 glowing rods around and 3 on the clothes of the three people were enough to illuminate the place in the dark.
The three of them moved slowly, observing their surroundings. Silas stepped on something as she moved. She looked down and saw that it was a human skull. She hurriedly took a few steps back.
Onijuku and Mikun also immediately came up.
Sijun looked around, found several skeletons, and said to the ghost, "This must be the Praetorian Guard soldier you said about diving into the sinkhole before......
Onisu sighed, "Hey...... They are all warriors...... If you had used this method earlier, it wouldn't have ......."
Then Silas shouted, "Look over here! There's a tunnel." ”
