I was leisurely tugging at the cloud rope at the other end of the pillar.

"You'd be quicker." Chen Yuqing looked at the boiling magma underneath and raised his head and shouted.

When the voice came, I couldn't hold back a smile and glanced at Yun Chu beside me.

"Oh, my hands are tired," I replied, pulling the rope and moving little by little towards myself.

Yun Chu leaned against the craggy stone wall beside me, raised his hand from time to time to lazily help me pull it, and when he saw that I was very weak, he couldn't help but bury his head in my ear and whispered: "You're really, slow-ah." ”

"That's it, I have more than enough heart but not enough strength, isn't it already pulling hard?" I looked up and loosened the rope in my hand, and the one hanging outside the cave fell sharply and couldn't help but scream.

"Ahh This is the third time, so you guys have to work hard. “

Finally coming up from the bottom, Chen Yuqing sat down as soon as he touched the ground at the entrance of the cave, and looked at me breathlessly.

"Mission accomplished." I said a flat sentence and began to untie the rope on Chen Yuqing's body.

The knot that connected the Feiyun Rope was made by Yun Chu himself, and the material used was his silver-white robe.

I decided that I had to find this clothing after I went back, why did I have to pester Yun Chu to ask for one, this clothing can save my life at a critical moment, I can afford to hang such a big man as Chen Yuqing, it is too tough!

"Xiao Ling'er, do you still have the medicine I prepared last time?" Yun Chu glanced at Chen Yuqing, who was sitting paralyzed on the side, and saw that my subordinates kept interrupting and forked.

"You have prepared so many medicines, which one are you asking now?" I lowered the knot and tilted my head to look at him, "Trauma medicine?" “

"No, it's the bottle that was made with spirits as medicine the night before departure."

Yun Chu had been to the town with me before leaving, and when he passed by the tavern, he specially bought one of the strongest local liquors, and the night after he returned, he directly mixed the herbs and made a small bottle of medicine for me to carry.

I searched through the small pile of things I had brought with me, and found the little white porcelain vase that looked at it with some uncertainty. Then he handed it to him and said, "Is this what you said?" “

Yun Chu opened the cork of the bottle, approached it, frowned and sniffed.

"It's so choking." From so far away, I could smell the pungent smell of wine, and I was busy reaching out to fan the wind to dispel the smell.

Originally, it was a strong wine, but later I didn't know what medicine Yun Chu added to it, which made the smell of this bottle of wine more and more choking.

"What do you want this wine for?" I looked at Yun Chu nervously, I was really afraid that he would pour it down.

Although Chen Yuqing is out of danger, and now Yun Chu's strength seems to have recovered at least thirty percent, and there should be no problem continuing to hurry, as long as he doesn't encounter a particularly bad situation again.

But I haven't forgotten what Chen Yuqing said when I took care of me at the bottom of the cliff.

So seeing Yun Chu begging for such a strong medicine. My instincts began to tense, and my eyes were fixed on the white porcelain vase in his hand.

Yun Chu was a little amused by the fact that I was facing a great enemy, and he hesitated. He walked over first, patted me on the shoulder and said, "It's not me who wants to use this medicine myself." ”

"What were you going to send it for?" I grabbed the vial in his hand with one hand and began to wrestle to get it back, and I regretted giving it to him without thinking about it.

"I think I told you, the night before I left."

"Nope. But you told me about the time you were on the fire in the sand, and we were counting the medicines we had with us. ”

Looking back, I scratched my scalp and struggled to remember: "By the way, I remember you told me that you said that this medicine is used to deal with unclean things that may be encountered in the cave." ”

"That's right." Yun Chu smiled at me and agreed. "Finally remembered?"

"I said it was going to be used to deal with the unclean things in the cave," Yun Chu raised his hand lightly, and his white fingertips gently pinched my cheek.

He nudged my body. I turned my head sideways, the back of my neck just within the range he could look down.

"But," Yun Chu carefully examined my injuries, but stopped talking halfway through.

I said excitedly: "How do you look at it again, didn't you confirm that there was no problem just now?" ”

It occurred to me that possibility. Immediately, he covered his neck with his hand and hurriedly shouted, "Do you want to use this medicine on me?" Don't, put so many spirits. It hurts to death. ”

Yun Chu smiled at me, and the one on the ground came to the spirit, echoing and comforting me: "Little girl, you are called self-inflicted." ”

Chen Yuqing smiled at me proudly: "You gave him the medicine yourself, and now it's just right to heal you." ”

"Don't be afraid, what is the pain, if you leave a scar, you may not be able to get married." Although Chen Yuqing's hands and feet are not dexterous, he will not change his true colors as soon as he escapes, and he is so fast that I can't even interject.

"You can't get married." I put my hands on my neck and looked at him angrily, "I knew I wouldn't have pulled you up just now." ”

"Of course I can't get married," Chen Yuqing looked at me strangely, "I've never heard of a man marrying a man, of course a man marries a wife." ”

He laughed.

I looked at the white porcelain vase in Yun Chu's hand, and felt that he was getting closer to me again, so I had to take a step back and try to make my eyes look pitiful.

I looked at him pitifully and whispered, "If you leave a scar, you can leave a scar, I'm not happy to use this medicine." ”

"How can you do it without medicine," Yun Chu insisted, and showed a triumphant smile in an instant, "However, who said that this medicine is for you." ”

...... "ah" sounded like killing a pig, and several stones on the roof of the cave fell.

Chen Yuqing finally managed to move his hands and feet, and looked at Yun Chu with a flushed face and said, "Young master, you ......"

"He didn't do much," I smiled and watched Yun Chu prick him with needles and medicine, "It's you, you can be regarded as self-inflicted." ”

"Wait, didn't you say you were going to use it on the unclean stuff in the cave? Where is me. ”

"Very self-aware, you are the unclean thing, look at the ashes of your body."

…… Passing through this new passage along the way, Yun Chu's expression was always very solemn, and he didn't see the relaxed laughter just now.

I followed him, raised my hand and touched his elbow and asked, "Do you notice anything wrong with the road now?" ”

Chen Yuqing, who was taking the lead, also turned his head and looked at Yun Chu inquiringly: "Young master, what's wrong." ”

Yun Chu shook his head with a deep look and said, "It's not wrong, I think this road should be the road to the destination." ”

My heart sank. I stopped and looked around the passage, but in my eyes, it was no different from where I had been in the past few days.

I questioned Yun Chu's words, but he didn't explain, and then we continued to walk forward for a while.

Yun Chu suddenly stopped, he tapped the stone layer of the cave wall with his knuckles, looked at me and said to Chen Yuqing, "Don't you notice that this voice is a little different? ”

"Indeed," I also reached out and tapped on the rock wall, and immediately came to the same conclusion as Yun Chu, the sound did not at all look like the sound of striking on the rock. It's so dull, and the rock wall feels a little weird to the touch.

I hesitated to scratch it with my fingers, and I was able to scrape off a layer of gray-white fine powder.

"What is this?" I dipped my index finger in a puff and took it to my nose and sniffed it. There was an indescribable smell, and after carefully distinguishing it, I whispered, "Is it rice noodles?" ”

My conclusions are somewhat uncertain.

"This is ......" Chen Yuqing also concocted the same method, scraped off some powder and sniffed it, "No." This is not flour, to be precise, this should be aged glutinous rice flour. ”

Glutinous rice flour? Chen Yuqing suddenly shouted: "This is rammed earth, it is rammed earth mixed with glutinous rice juice." ”

His eyes sparkled, "That's right, we've reached our true destination." ”

"Above the rammed earth layer, there should be a mechanism."

Let's put it this way. It is indeed close to the heart of the treasure area.

The practice of mixing the rammed earth layer with glutinous rice juice is handed down by the predecessors, and Chen Yuqing took the martyred jade pavilion to rob the tomb in the Bering Mountain area, which is for him. Of course it's familiar.

For a while, we were all a little eager to try close to the truth, and this line of work was not in vain.

But the excitement passed, and the next problem lay ahead.

Yun Chu quickly spoke: "Our current position is at the bottom of this rammed earth layer. This means that there must be a mechanism on top of us. ”

Look at the current state of the team, three people. One is me who has no skills, one is Yun Chu who has recovered three successes, and the other is Chen Yuqing, who has just had enough of the pain of needle pricking and does not know how many successes he has recovered.

The composition of such a team is much weaker than when it first entered Cangyan.

We don't know what the mechanism is yet, but there may be traps waiting for us to jump.

"Let's vote for the three of you, the opinion of the two of you is that you should stay put, wait for a day or two of cultivation to at least restore your strength and then go safely, or strike while the iron is hot now and directly find a breakthrough in the upper echelons."

"You have to think about it, because at least it's safe here."

"Yes, the people who come are all going for the treasure, and there is no reason to come to the rammed earth layer underground to find trouble."

"No one is so idle."

After a short conversation, the three of us voted.

With the back of my hand and looking around at the other two, I couldn't help but laugh, so to be able to get along for so long, in the final analysis, there are still commonalities.

"Let's go!" The back of the hand represents the immediate departure.

"I guess the entrance is not far away," Yun Chu whispered, because he was now closer to the central target, so he spoke softer, and only Chen Yuqing, who was very close, could barely hear clearly.

"Since the predecessors were able to open such a road, the exit must not be far away." Chen Yuqing agreed with Yun Chu's judgment.

I followed them silently until the end of the passage.

"The exit should be around here." Yun Chu raised his hand and gently brushed the top of the cave, and there was indeed a seemingly unstable soil layer on the northeast corner, and the color was darker than the one next to it.

"This is it," Yun Chu whispered, "Before you break it, you'd better be prepared, I can't predict what the situation will be when you go out." “
