Where to go, that's the question.

According to Hua Duxiu's estimate, the Bairimen covers a large area, and there are always thousands of acres sprinkled with foreign flowers, Ding Qiqi burned down half of the Bairimen, they were in the center of the fire point, from here to each direction, not to walk one or two miles I am afraid that I will not be able to get out of the warning range of the Bairimen.

It's almost the same everywhere you look here, and when you roll this fall, your sense of direction is messed up.

Where are you going?

Ding Qiqi said: "Xiaohua, if we don't follow this underground river, maybe we can find an exit." ”

Hua Duxiu shook his head: "It's better to say goodbye, in case it ends up merging into a bigger underground river, let's go deeper and deeper, farther and farther from the ground, wouldn't we be completely trapped here?"

Ding Qiqi said: "Then how do you say to go?" ”

Hua Duxiu said: "There is wind here, and if there is wind, there should be a place to connect with the ground, let's go along the direction of the wind." ”

Ding Qiqi was overjoyed: "Okay, good, Xiaohua, you are so smart!"

Hua Duxiu said: "There is another problem, the Bairi Gate is built on the slope of the Vale, and normally speaking, the wind blows from the valley to the hillside during the day, which is called the valley wind, and at night, the wind blows from the hillside to the valley, which is called the mountain wind. Shall we go upwind or downwind?"

Ding Qiqi was completely out of ideas: "How do you know so much?

Hua Duxiu said: "The downwind direction must be deep in the river valley, we still have to find a way to get out of the Vale when we get off the ground, it is better to go upwind, maybe we will leave the valley directly while walking." ”

Ding Qiqi said happily: "Okay, okay, listen to you, let's go quickly." ”

Hua Duxiu judged the wind, Ding Qiqi lit it with a fireball, and the two of them cautiously walked in the direction of the upwind outlet.

In the dark underground cave, there are round stalactites everywhere, and there are many bamboo-like stone milk pillars connected up and down, which has a strange feeling under the firelight.

It's still very cold here, and it's extremely quiet, and you can only hear the slight sound of the wind. Walking in this underground cave, all people's thoughts will be infinitely magnified, and even the slightest messy fantasy will instantly turn into a huge horror, which makes people tremble all over.

Ding Qiqi was a little scared, holding Hua Duxiu's arm and walking forward cautiously, Hua Duxiu was bold, carefully felt the wind, and led Ding Qiqi to go farther and farther in the direction of the wind.

Sure enough, the further upwind they went, the higher the terrain was, and it was not surprising that they should be heading in the direction of the cliffs of the river valley.

Not to mention that Hua Duxiu and the two were exploring in the underground cave, above the ground, Venerable Lingxi led many masters to completely quell the monstrous fire, and the people of Bairimen were exploring everywhere, looking for traces of Hongmen's disciples.

Venerable Lingxi was a middle-aged man who was not very tall and had a very decent appearance, and at this moment his face was very ugly, standing under the collapsed twin towers, without saying a word.

From time to time, someone rushed over to report: "Hall Master, no trace of the enemy has been found in the north direction!"

"Hall Master, no trace of the enemy has been found in the western direction!"

"......"

There were people in all directions, but all of them were in vain, and they didn't even find the figure of a Hongmen disciple.

An old man frowned and said, "Lingxi, what can you find?"

Venerable Lingxi's eyes moved, and he said respectfully: "Senior Uncle, when the fire was not extinguished before, there was indeed a fire magician who was making waves here, and I could sense his breath not long ago. They should be two people, and the other person does not have infinite true qi in him, and he is not a cultivator. ”

It's just that at this moment, the breath of the two of them completely disappeared, as if they had disappeared out of thin air. Even if they are hiding at my feet at the moment, even if they are completely shielded from the breath, I can sense one or two. ”

"But I couldn't sense anything, except for the remnants of the ruins that had previously fueled the breath of fire. ”

The old man said, "Did they disappear out of thin air?" or could they go up to heaven and earth?"

Venerable Lingxi turned his head and asked, "Has the pit been dug up, and what have you found?"

A dozen disciples were working hard to clear the long and narrow pit, and one of them said:

"Hall Master, Elder, the pit has been completely buried by the collapsed tower, and most of it has been cleared, and there is no trace of the enemy, and no human corpses have been found. ”

The old man shook his head: "It is impossible for them to die here, even if they die, there will be breath left on the corpse in such a short period of time." ”

"Dig, get this pit out completely. I don't believe in the people who can fly into the sky, they will definitely not be able to escape from such a tight surrounding, they can only hide underground!"

Venerable Lingxi said, "Senior Uncle, I didn't sense the breath of an earth magician, and it is unlikely that I want to escape from the ground. ”

The old man said: "When all the possibilities do not happen, the option that cannot happen may be the truth." ”

Venerable Lingxi nodded: "Uncle Shi is right, everyone, step up and clean up the pit ruins!"

The disciples of the White Sun Gate were busy digging pits on the ground, but Hua Duxiu and the others walked farther and farther, and they had already left the position under the twin towers.

The further they went, the tighter the wind became, but the surrounding cave became narrower and narrower, and they seemed to have reached the edge of the cave.

Finally, they found the source of the outlet.

This is a narrow cave more than two feet deep, one end of the cave is connected to the karst cave where Hua Duxiu and the two walked, and the other end is a black hole with rocky canine teeth.

There is no end in sight to this black hole, and the strange rocks are craggy, and you can barely climb into it.

That's where the wind blows.

However, the underground river does not flow from this side, but from a long distance behind it in the other direction.

Ding Qiqi was happy and sad: "Xiaohua, why is there no light on that end? Don't you say that the wind is blowing in from the outside?"

Hua Duxiu scratched her head: "Probably the other end of the black hole is still a cave, let's go up for a while?"

Ding Qiqi said: "You have to think about it, if you can't find the exit after getting in, we won't even have water to drink." ”

Hua Duxiu said: "Then it's better to go in when you're full, it's really not good...... Let's just come back the same way we came. ”

Ding Qiqi glanced at Hua Duxiu and sighed: "That's it." ”

The two returned to the underground river, holding a few sips of water in their hands.

Under the light of the fireball, this underground river is incomparably clear, the water is sweet and soft, and the entrance is cold, but it is very delicious.

And there is no living creature in the water, it is like the blood vessels of a mountain, constantly flowing in the depths of the earth.

After taking a few sips, Hua Duxiu's hands were cold, her lips were purple from the cold, and she felt even colder.

Alas, the temperature is low, the wind is cold, and this water is even colder, which is fatal.

The two of them got up and came back to the tuyere.

Hua Duxiu said: "Give me a light, I'll climb in first." ”

Ding Qiqi said: "Okay, you belong to the pangolin, you climb first!"

Hua Duxiu was too lazy to care, and after a flame flew into the illuminated stone cave, Hua Duxiu took the lead in climbing in.

The two of them crawled forward in the cramped stone cave, and after climbing for a long time, the front suddenly opened up, and it was actually a wide cave.

Relying on the light of the fireball, it can be seen that there are traces of artificial repair in this cave, and it should be that someone has repaired it on the basis of the natural cave.

The place where the two of them are located is a naturally formed hole above the rock cave, and there are traces of earth and stone blocking around the hole, but because the years are too long, and it is a wind outlet, the soil and stones are blown more and more by the strong wind, and the hole is getting bigger and bigger, until it becomes what it is now.

Hua Duxiu turned around and whispered: "Qiqi, it seems that the following has been artificially excavated, can't we go down?"

Ding Qiqi's voice came from behind him: "...... This hellish place is so deeply hidden, maybe it's the secret treasure of the White Sun Gate. ”

Hua Duxiu's heart moved, a secret treasure place?

Ding Qiqi said again: "Haven't you always wanted to lead some sheep, let's go down and see, if there is any gold and silver treasure, I will allow you to go a few, and I will burn the rest of them into muddy soup and seep into the ground!"

Hua Duxiu: "...... Sister, take it easy, you almost burned me to death just now, why do you want to set it on fire again? Don't get excited, let's see what's inside. ”

Hua Duxiu softly smashed the earth and stone blocking the exit, cleared a hole that could accommodate people in and out, and then turned out.

After the two of them landed, they were on guard, and Ding Qiqi Wuji's true qi spread in all directions, carefully probing the surrounding space.

The cave is very wide, but it is not very high, less than a foot high, which makes people feel very oppressive.

There is nothing empty here, but the ground is very flat, and it looks like it has been repaired by man, and it is by no means a natural formation.

The hole they jumped into was almost overhead, and the hole was knocked open by Hua Duxiu, and now it looked black, and the wind from the cave blew into it with a melodious whistling sound.

Hua Duxiu whispered: "Qiqi, how is it, is there anyone here?"

Ding Qiqi shook his head: "I didn't notice the appearance of someone, let's go ahead and take a look." ”

Hua Duxiu said, "Okay." ”

The two of them slowly advanced in the oppressive cave, neither of them daring to speak, and each of them carefully probed.

Suddenly, Ding Qiqi's eyes changed and stopped there.
