The environment on the first floor is darker and damper than the second, and there is an unpleasant, pungent stench everywhere that seems to be the excrement of those mysterious creatures. In addition, a lot of rotting bones can be seen.

Since this place is home to many different kinds of creatures, cannibalism is inevitable. After all, food is indispensable to survive in such a ghostly place.

As Zhao He said, because of the blood smeared, the road was very safe, and nothing attacked him. However, even so, Jiang Lai did not let his guard down.

Looking at the map engraved on the stone slab, Jiang Lai silently estimated, if nothing else, about fifty meters ahead, the crack should be visible.

After a while, the crack mentioned by Zhao He finally appeared in Jiang Lai's sight. Looking closely, the crack is about 20 centimeters wide, very narrow, although I don't know where this crack leads, but standing in front of the crack, I can vaguely feel the breeze coming from inside.

Seeing this, Jiang Lai was overjoyed, it seems that Zhao He is right, this crack does lead to the ground, otherwise, there will be no air circulation.

However, just as Jiang Lai was about to burrow into the crack to escape from this ghost place, a sudden change occurred, and a slight vibration suddenly came from all directions, and then, the vibration sound became stronger and stronger, like rolling thunder, boom, boom, and pieces of rubble fell from the top of the passage.

Faced with this sudden change, Jiang Lai was secretly shocked, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly drilled into the crack.

"Whew!"

Suddenly, a sound of breaking the air hit, and the corner of his eyes swept away, his face couldn't help but change slightly, and he immediately pulled back from the crack.

"Boom!"

The next moment, only a dull loud noise was heard, and a man-high boulder slammed into the crack, sealing the entire crack.

At the same time, in the surrounding passages, a large group of snow-white monsters emerged, with long limbs, burly and strong, and an ugly and hideous face, exactly the same as the white-haired monsters that Jiang Lai had killed before.

Seeing dozens of white-haired monsters rushing towards him, Jiang Lai retreated, but his back had already hit the mountain wall, and there was nowhere to escape.

"Damn!" he scolded secretly, his two thick eyebrows raised slightly, and his sharpness was revealed. Zhao He reminded him that the blood smeared on his body could avoid most living things, but not all, who would have thought that it would fail at this most critical moment.

"Taiyi Eight Style, Flying Frost Style!"

With a cold drink, Jiang Lai's eyes condensed slightly, and the majestic spiritual power surged out without reservation, instantly turning into a thick mist that filled the surroundings, enveloping the group of white-haired monsters that were rapidly approaching.

Immediately afterwards, the mist gradually condensed into patches of frost and snow, which spread all around, and the temperature in the air dropped suddenly.

When the bodies of the white-haired monsters came into contact with the frost and snow, their movements immediately became sluggish, as if they were frozen. However, the effects of those frosts and snow did not last long, and in just a few seconds, the white-haired monster's movements began to slowly recover.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiang Lai flew up, stepped on the shoulders of those white-haired monsters, and quickly rushed towards the rear. In the blink of an eye, he was behind the white-haired monster.

At this time, the bodies of the white-haired monsters had recovered freely, and one by one they let out a piercing strange cry, and pursued frantically behind. At this critical juncture, Jiang Lai didn't dare to delay for a moment, and the speed was pushed to the extreme, like a gust of wind, galloping through the passage.

Right now, his only choice was to return to the second layer and then renegotiate with Zhao He.

While thinking about it, there was a sudden burst of miserable wails behind him. Jiang Lai stopped suddenly, turned his head to look, and found that those white-haired monsters had not caught up, listening to the screams one after another, the group of white-haired monsters seemed to have been attacked.

"Good chance!" he said secretly, not daring to look into it, but turned back to the second floor. It wasn't clear what attack the white-haired monster had been, but he wasn't interested in knowing. For the sake of your own life, it is the best policy.

"Whew!"

Taking a few breaths, Jiang Lai's mind gradually calmed down, and then walked towards the stone room where Zhao He lived. After a while, he slowly stopped, looked at the boulder used to block the entrance to the stone chamber not far away, and frowned unconsciously.

The boulder was moved aside, and the stone chamber was not sealed, with Zhao He's caution, even if he went out, the stone chamber would be sealed, so as not to find out about the existence of this stone chamber.

When he got closer, he glanced in, and saw that it was empty, and there was no one.

"Where have you gone?"

Jiang Lai muttered to himself and waited in the stone chamber for a while, but he didn't see Zhao He come back.

After more than two hours, Jiang Lai couldn't sit still, Zhao He hadn't appeared for so long, could it be that something had happened? Thinking of this, he stood up and prepared to go out to investigate the situation.

But at this time, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be some marks under the mattress made of animal skins in the corner. He stepped forward and lifted the hide, only to see that the ground was engraved with zigzag lines, and many words were marked.

After a few glances, his face gradually turned cold, and his inky black eyes were filled with a hint of calmness.

No wonder I haven't seen Zhao He come back for so long, it turns out that this guy has fled!

The map on the ground is the road map of the first layer, and Zhao He has actually made it a long time ago, but he didn't tell himself. There were a lot of markings on the map, and he seemed to be planning his escape route, and everything was clearly planned.

However, he was slow to do so because he couldn't think of a way to get around the ancient relic.

"Humph!"

Jiang Lai sneered, and it wasn't until this moment that he understood Zhao He's calculations. The other party did not intend to help him at all, but to use him to attract attention so that he could have a chance to escape.

In the place where the crack is located, there is a group of white-haired monsters, although the blood given to him by Zhao He can avoid the attacks of some unknown creatures, but the smell of blood can attract the attention of white-haired monsters. If you guessed correctly, the group of white-haired monsters probably took him as prey, so they poured out of the nest.

However, this is not Zhao He's ultimate goal, if he wants to escape, he must lure away the ancient relics, and those white-haired monsters are the bait.

Because of this, when he fled just now, he heard a scream from behind, which was probably the ancient relics preyding.

"It's a good calculation. Jiang muttered to himself, a cold smile on the corner of his mouth.

Thinking about it, Zhao He told him so many secrets, how could he let him leave alive. I only blamed myself for being too careless and didn't penetrate his mind.
