"With you, the captain of the city guard, it's much safer than staying in a deserted village." "Yes!" Luo Junman's answer sounded louder than just now!

Snow Eagle walked a few steps, turned around and said, "Is there any news of them?" “

Luo Junman and Cui'er glanced at each other, and then whispered, "No." ”

"Hmm." Xue Ying turned around and walked in the direction of the stable, and Cui'er behind him suddenly shouted to him: "City Lord! ”

Snow Eagle turned her head, and Cui'er looked at him with a sincere expression and said, "You don't have to worry. "With the son with her, the young lady will be safe and sound, and she will always come back when the matter is done."

I shouted towards a hole in the heights, "Yun Chu, are you in there?" ”

I could hear his response from afar, so I sat down patiently and waited for him to come out.

This is our third day in the underworld.

From the Shao family's confined lake to diving through the secret passage and arriving at the stone room, it took most of the day just to be in the stone room.

Yun Chu found some materials to ignite in the clutter in the corner of the stone house, and the two of us first dried our soaked clothes, and then, at my strong request, rested on the spot for about two hours.

I had a plan that if I walked for hours on the only passage in that stone chamber and didn't get anything, I might as well consider going back the way I came.

According to Yun Chu's personality, of course, my thoughts can only be hidden in my heart, and they cannot be revealed until the critical moment.

He also had a plan in mind about this trip, although the two of them had different ideas, but after resting, they began to explore the passage for the time being.

Along the way, I didn't bother to carefully observe the condition of the stone walls in the passage, and my mind was all about returning along the same path. The Shao family has not seen us for most of the day, whether to find a reasonable excuse to make up a reason for their disappearance, or simply find a place to hide in the backyard of the Shao family. Wait for dark and go out overnight?

I've thought about both assumptions. Along the way, Yun Chu and I barely spoke.

It's not the first time I've walked through the underground passages, and I've gone through countless passages under the ground of Qingcangyan, and after several twists and turns, I can't count the passages I have walked through.

If you want to say that people who come down for the first time, they will inevitably have fear, but we have already seen such a big battle, and I am used to it.

To know. Compared with that time when I fell off a cliff, collapsed, and my companion died, the journey I walked with Yun Chu now seemed too calm.

The passage is long. It was a meandering journey, stopping for a few rests until we were where we are now.

This place is strange, there are countless small grottoes scattered large and small. There were more than a hundred, and I stood there and counted them carefully.

I once went into a grotto, and to my disappointment, it wasn't like the underground grottoes I'd seen before, and there were some collections and stuff like that.

Because I'm already clear. The traces of this underground project are very man-made, and I am sorry that we came here with such effort if we didn't find anything.

But no, not one cave, not two, I had explored a dozen of them, and I lost interest in the stone caves that filled the mountain walls.

As far as I could, I explored the grottoes in the lower part of the rock face.

The high places are naturally left to Yun Chu, who has made outstanding achievements.

The caves on the ground floor were handed over to me, and he patiently went to inspect the rows of caves on the upper floors one by one.

It wasn't until he found out somewhere, and by chance something new came to discover, and finally it was no longer nothing, but when he took me up, I frowned and looked at the petroglyphs illuminated by the torches on the stone wall, and I really couldn't understand what was drawn on them.

I think it's a Buddha statue, but the lines of clothing on it don't look like the places of interest I saw before I crossed over.

For example, Longmen Grottoes, such as Yungang Grottoes.

So I observed for a long time, and finally I was not interested in asking for it.

If he's interested, let him take a good look at it, I'll keep my lower body in situ, and I don't know the next round of conditions, I always feel that it's most important to rest well and keep some energy!

Yun Chu's interest was completely attracted by the carvings in the grottoes on the rock wall, and each of the grottoes he explored took a long time.

This person is used to by the young master, but I began to worry about one of the strictest problems.

Now we are in the underground project, the passage comes out, it is such a large stone wall, no matter how precious the stone wall is, no matter how rich the information on it, our time is still very limited.

If a man wants to eat, he must not stay here with all his food.

I saw Yun Chu's high spirit, it was difficult to say this disappointing words, but I secretly made up my mind in my heart that when he finished exploring the current cave, I would pull him and continue to go down no matter what.

Can't be dragged down by this rock wall.

After staying in place for another half an hour, Yun Chu finally came down from the grotto and landed gently in front of me.

I didn't bother to praise his good skills, so without saying a word, I untied the burden I was carrying and spread it out on the ground for him to see.

"Here, here," I said, fiddling with the bag of snacks on my baggage, "that's all we have for our rations, and you don't have much on you." ”

"So, I can't stay here any longer." "No matter how beautiful the mural is, you have to hurry to the next location, as long as you find a source of food, you will have no problem staying for a few more days."

After saying it in one breath, I raised my head and looked at him without blinking, ready for him to decide if he couldn't decide again, I planned to take the hand of my son and drag him away directly!

Sometimes you need some violence, don't you?!

Yun Chu smiled when he heard this, looked at me, and said meaningfully: "It's a little fascinating." ”

A somewhat sorry expression appeared on his face, and the corners of his mouth pulled up: "Xiao Ling'er, these murals, I seem to be familiar with them." ”

"When I first saw it, I didn't think about it for a while, but after looking at it for most of the day, I finally had some eyebrows."

"Huh?!" Hearing him say this, my interest also rose, and I stood up and patted the dust on it, and looked up at him. "You said eyebrows, can you explain to me the meaning of the painting on it?"

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "But that's not what you mean?" "What do you mean?!" I asked. "These murals have been seen in the silver country before. It's just a little different from here. "The climate in the southwest is humid and warm, and these carvings have been around for some time. So the eroded Yan zhòng, so I couldn't think of it all of a sudden. "The murals of the silver country are in a snow cave in the high mountains, the climate is cold, and they are frozen all year round, and the integrity of the murals is much better." "I see." I sighed and said, "But you're not sure what it means, isn't it in vain?" “

Yun Chu raised his hand and knocked on the door of my head. Laughing: "For you, for me definitely not, it's always useful." ”

"You're still selling it, young master. While we can all walk, hurry up and don't delay. ”

I reluctantly crouched down and began to sort out the baggage I had just opened, the most important thing. The first thing to do is, of course, to confirm the number of pills.

"There's one bigger problem." I frowned, "So far, no herbs have been found here. ”

"Hurry up to the next location, you have to calculate the time to take the pills."

"Yun Chu, this underground project. There's another exit, right?! I suddenly remembered this question, "Again, in the end, I can only use the same method of diving as before, and then go back through the secret passage." ”

"Yes." Yun Chu replied quickly, in a very confident tone, and I breathed a sigh.

Immediately afterward, he said, "But I'm not sure!" "What?" I almost jumped three feet high, "Big brother, are you kidding me?" "Not sure?!" "According to the map I've seen, there should be more than one exit marked on it, but you also know that it's very old, and the southwest has just passed a big earthquake, so I'm not sure the number of exits, but it will definitely not be a dead end, you can rest assured."

"Emma!" My heart was throbbing.

All at once it was thrown into the clouds, and all at once it landed again.

With such a person, the heart function is not strong, I'm afraid I'm going to burp!

"Let's go." Yun Chu took my hand and walked forward along the passage on the other side.

We walked for a short time, and this time the passage gradually opened up.

I glanced at Yun Chu happily and said, "Does it indicate that the exit is about to arrive?" ”

He smiled silently and glanced at me, "What if not?!" ”

"Are you crow's mouth? Would I like to go out earlier? ”

I bumped him on the arm as I walked: "The person who sent the letter to Snow Eagle is no big problem, you said I gave so many clues, if he can't do it again, I'm sorry for my trust." ”

"Yun Chu," I looked up at his good-looking side face and said proudly, "You know what? I also wrote a long booklet on the construction of the southwest region, and I also came up with a lot of ideas for him. ”

"I wasn't idle when I was in Xiyuan, so I can get a full score for this homework."

"How did I not know?" Yun Chu glanced sideways at me, expressing surprise, but there was a smile in his eyes that could not be hidden.

"Originally, I wanted to impress you, your apprentice and I, I have long and capable, but people always have to leave a sense of mystery, anyway, you have to remember one thing."

"What's the matter?"

"If the southwest region is well governed in a few years, most of it is due to my blessing."

"You have to be proud of me, proud of having such a disciple."

"I'll bring glory to you."

"Are you sure you're not saying the opposite?"

In the distance, I heard the sound of the waterfall in my ears, and I stopped my steps, grabbed Yun Chu and said, "There is an underground river ahead?" ”

"According to the indication on the map, there are many underground rivers in the southwest area, and it is not surprising to encounter one."

With some expectations in mind, along the route, the passage became more and more open.

As soon as I stepped out of the passage, I was stunned when I saw the scene outside!
