Chapter 8: Trapped in a Cave
Just as Luo Ningxin was trying her best to run forward, she saw the pale Xia Lanzhi also get up from the ground. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info saw Xia Lanzhi take out two pieces of yellow paper and throw them, and then rushed towards the stone cave with two layers of yellow light covers.
At this time, with the rolling and tumbling of the dark clouds overhead, the wind and shock waves still hit the surrounding peaks one by one. Mountains are collapsing far and near, and the valley is almost covered with flying rocks. There was a cloud of smoke and dust in all directions, and it was almost impossible to see anything beyond three feet.
Soon after Luo Ningxin rushed into the stone cave, he couldn't see the scene outside clearly. She only heard the man with the sword scream "ah", and then a water-green figure rushed towards the mouth of the stone cave.
Luo Ningxin hurriedly flicked his body back and stuck it to the stone wall at the innermost end of the stone cave. The aqua green figure stopped, it was Xia Lanzhi. At this time, the two layers of protective light shields on Xia Lanzhi's body were all gone, there was no blood on his face, and there were large blood stains on the placket of his chest.
"You ......" Luo Ning was about to say something, when there was another earth-shattering explosion, and a huge dark brown thing slashed against the mouth of the stone cave. Then there was a deafening roar, as if something had hit the top of the cave.
The earth shook and trembled, and the solid stone cave shook violently, and countless dust, sand and stones fell from the natural cracks formed by the staggered large stones at the top of the stone cave. The whole cave was pitch black.
Luo Ning's heart was already terrified to the extreme at this time, thinking to herself, could it be that this stone cave was about to collapse? What was smashed on the top of the stone cave just now, no matter how she thought about it, she felt that it was a huge mountain or even an entire mountain peak, which just pressed down on the stone cave. And how a stone cave can stand up to a huge mountain!
I don't know how long it took, but the cave finally held up and stopped shaking. Luo Ning, who had a dry mouth and a cold sweat behind him, relaxed slightly. Then she heard a long breath in the darkness and seemed to sit on the ground.
"Damn!" Luo Ningxin finally couldn't help but scold.
Luo Ningxin, who had escaped, was a little calmer at this time. She found that the stone cave was not completely sealed and buried, and there was a faint beam of light more than an inch long in the corner of the top of the stone cave. Although there was only a short line, Luo Ningxin felt that he was not isolated from the world, at least he had a glimmer of hope that he could leave here.
Luo Ningxin, who had relaxed a little, looked at Xia Lanzhi with the help of this faint light. I saw Xia Lanzhi sitting cross-legged on the ground, her face was pale, and there was hardly a trace of blood.
Luo Ningxin saw Xia Lanzhi quickly take out a delicate vial from a palm-sized black leather bag, pour out two off-white, translucent, fingernail-sized pills, and put them in his mouth.
Then Xia Lanzhi pinched each hand in a posture similar to an orchid finger, put the back of his hands on his knees, palms facing up, and began to meditate motionlessly with his eyes closed. It looks like he has escaped the catastrophe, survived his life, and seized every opportunity to recover his strength.
Luo Ning saw that Xia Lanzhi looked confident, and felt that she must have a way to get out of here. If nothing else, if she had been bombarding the mountain wall with that little fiery snake, it would have been much more efficient and useful than digging a passage with a dagger.
At this time, the shaking of the ground outside continued, but because the stone cave was buried by the mountain, those movements seemed a little distant. And Xia Lanzhi seems to be deaf and unaware. Luo Ning understood that Xia Lanzhi was too seriously injured and might need to take pills to recover for a while, so he didn't come forward to disturb.
Luo Ningxin listened to the movement outside in horror, and at the same time hoped that Xia Lanzhi would open her eyes as soon as possible and say a few words to her. The movement outside ended abruptly after a stick of incense. The world soon fell silent again, but the entrance to the stone cave was still tightly sealed.
Luo Ningxin, who was a little more down-to-earth, carefully checked the injuries on his body and found that there were no injuries to his muscles and bones, but only a few places where blood flowed. Luo Ningxin only had one herb at hand to help stop the bleeding. She mashed the herbs with stones, put herself on her back, and hastily bandaged them.
Luo Ningxin repaired for a while and found that Xia Lanzhi had not yet opened his eyes.
Luo Ning thought that it was better to ask for others than for himself, and instead of waiting for Xia Lanzhi to finish meditating, he should first try to dig the mountain covering the entrance of the cave with a dagger. The mountain was mixed with dirt, not all stones, and perhaps she could dig a way out by herself with the sharpness of her dagger.
Just when Luo Ning's heart was tossed for a long time and he couldn't dig a big hole, Xia Lanzhi suddenly spoke: "I didn't expect the two of us to be so fateful. Don't worry, although I am seriously injured and my cultivation has fallen greatly, there should be a way to take you out of here. ”
"You opened your eyes!" Luo Ning said happily.
Xia Lanzhi said: "I'm sorry, although this landslide has nothing to do with me, but you are trapped here today, more or less always attributed to me. ”
Luo Ning said curiously: "Didn't you live in a wooden house, how did you get here?"
Xia Lanzhi said: "My opponent came to the door. I was seriously wounded, my cultivation was greatly reduced, and there were few means left to fight the enemy, so I naturally wanted to escape. Her tone was heavy, as if she had something else on her mind.
Luo Ning sighed slightly and said, "Count me unlucky." But...... Do you really have a way to take me out? This mountain wall is very hard, and I have been digging for a long time without much success, but it is about to break my dagger! I thought that if you bombarded the crack at the top with a fiery snake and flew up with me, we would be able to get out!" he said, his eyes flashing wide, looking at Xia Lanzhi expectantly.
Xia Lanzhi smiled bitterly: "You little girl is clever. The solution you said did work, and it was about the same as what I came up with. But now I don't have much of the Fire Serpent Talisman left, and if I use a spell to attack, I am now seriously injured, unable to use the True Yuan, and the meridians are also severely damaged, so it is impossible to mobilize spiritual power. You can wait for me to recuperate for a while, and then find a way to get out when my injuries and cultivation have recovered a bit. Besides, it's fine if those two people die or leave. If they are only injured and stay outside, we will only be dead if we rush out!"
"Who are those two people?, why do you have to kill you and me?" Luo Ning asked in his heart.
Xia Lanzhi said: "I don't know these two people either. At first, I thought they had inadvertently seen me alone, and they wanted to kill people and take treasures. But I didn't expect them to get my essence blood and make it into a treasure to find me, which shows that it was no accident that I met them!
"You know, even if I was seriously injured in the battle a few days ago and lost my essence blood, it will not be possible to make a treasure that can search for my natal treasure in a day or two. Moreover, the materials for refining the natal treasure are extremely precious, and they are by no means affordable for a mid-foundation building cultivator. If they hadn't been sure that I had something in me that they couldn't get, how could I have spent so much money!"
