Chapter 60: Exploring the Cave
In the eerie space, everything is silent.
A man and a beast floated high in the sky, if it weren't for the company of this stone golem beast that couldn't speak, Xu Tian at this moment didn't dare to guarantee whether he could stay awake in such an environment.
"Hey, that's ......"
Xu Tian, who was looking around, suddenly lit up, and then flew quickly in one direction.
"Sure enough, it's a mountain gate!"
What came into view was a pitch-black cave, and it was said that the mountain gate had somewhat elevated the identity of this cave.
The stone puppet beast was obviously able to understand Xu Tian's words, and reached out to pat the somewhat funny forehead "speechlessly", and then clubbed its head and slammed into the torso of the ancient wood on the side.
Xu Tianlao's face turned red, and he reached out to grab the stone puppet beast and dragged it towards the cave.
It was getting dark now, and sleeping outside was obviously not as safe and comfortable as this cave, and the cave did not seem to be a natural formation, there were several stone steps at the entrance of the cave, and there was a crooked stone tablet at the entrance of the cave, although the handwriting on the stone tablet was eroded by wind and rain and it was difficult to legible.
After standing still at the entrance of the cave for a moment, not sensing the danger, Xu Tian motioned for the stone puppet beast to go ahead.
The stone puppet beast reached out and touched the smooth skull, stretched out the palm of only three fingers in a very humane way, and pointed to the associated seven-colored stone crystal on Xu Tian's chest, which seemed to say: "Let Lao Tzu explore the way, why do you have to return the stone crystal before Lao Tzu to me first, right?"
"Here you go!" Xu Tian took out the stone crystal from his arms and threw it at the stone puppet beast, but at this time, a scene that shocked Xu Tian happened.
When the companion stone crystal touched the body surface of the stone golem beast, a layer of waves appeared on the surface of the latter's body, and then the stone crystal merged into the body of the stone golem beast under Xu Tian's stunned gaze.
And then, the stone golem beast patted its belly, but the associated seven-colored stone crystal that had just entered the stone golem beast's body resurfaced, and the stone golem beast handed the emerging stone crystal to Xu Tian.
"You mean I let me swallow it?" Xu Tian looked at the performance of the stone puppet beast with a shocked expression, and at this moment, the latter, who was holding a piece of broken stone, pointed to the seven-colored stone crystal in Xu Tian's hand, and then followed Xu Tian's example, put the broken stone into his "mouth" and swallowed it.
Looking at the seven-colored stone crystal that still had some residual warmth in his hand, Xu Tian's stomach began to churn, and he handed it to his mouth several times and moved it away.
He could be sure that this stone crystal was not some kind of poison, which he could still see as a five-rank pill master.
It's just that swallowing this thing is still taken out of the body of the little guy in front of him, and he inevitably has some diaphragms in his heart.
Finally, with his eyes closed and a bitter face, he finally swallowed it, and then took out some water and food in the Qiankun bag to suppress the urge to vomit.
And at this time, the stone puppet beast that was about to enter the cave did pause, turned its head, and "looked" at Xu Tian's Qiankun bag, and his whole body began to tremble with excitement, Xu Tian, who was still rinsing his mouth, suddenly felt a cold body, and then a black shadow rushed over and snatched the Qiankun bag in his hand.
When he came back to his senses, he found that the stone golem in the distance was trying its best to break the bag, as if looking for something.
"Little one, what are you looking for?"
Xu Tian quietly came over, licked his face and asked, "This Qiankun bag can't be opened with brute force, it needs a soul... That is, mental power, do you understand mental power?"
The stone puppet beast stopped the movement in his hand, pointed at Xu Tian, and then gestured for a while, and then handed over the Qiankun bag in his hand.
"Little guy, IQ is not low!"
Xu Tian sighed in his heart, and then took out some of the water, food, pills, and medicinal materials in the Qiankun bag, and placed them in front of the stone puppet beast one by one.
Originally, he thought that the stone golem beast would be interested in the elixir or the spirit grass elixir, but to his surprise, the stone golem beast was not interested in these at all, but pointed to the Qiankun bag and motioned Xu Tian to continue to take out the contents inside.
Helplessly, Xu Tian took out all the same things in the Qiankun bag with curiosity, knowing that when he took out an inconspicuous blue square stone, the stone puppet beast snatched it and stuffed the blue stone into his body.
Xu Tian knew that the blue stone was unintentionally picked up by him at the end of the Buddha Mountain, and that the stone was no different from other stones as a whole, the only difference was that it was blue all over, and it was for this reason that he put the stone away.
Unexpectedly, the stone golem was so interested in this stone.
However, he didn't speak the language of the stone golem, so he couldn't get any other useful information, otherwise he would have to find out what the blue stone was.
After getting what he wanted, the stone puppet beast was not interested in the Qiankun bag, and touched the stone on its stomach, as if it was a little unfed.
Xu Tian finished packing up the Qiankun bag, patted the stone puppet beast's head with a wry smile, and said, "Let's go, it's time to get down to business!"
As he spoke, he bowed his mouth towards the dark cave, and then the stone golem reluctantly walked towards the stone cave first.
Although he lost a blue stone block that he didn't know value, he was able to make this stone golem beast so obedient, and he didn't think it was too much of a loss, and he always felt that the value of the seven-colored stone crystal swallowed in his stomach should not be too low.
The moment he entered the stone cave, Xu Tian felt a cold aura, which was a bit like the nest where the python lived, giving people a particularly terrifying feeling.
After walking about five or six steps, Xu Tian lit the torch in his hand, and with the help of the firelight, he saw that there was a curved staircase in front of him, similar to a staircase on the earth, and every dozen steps would encounter a bend.
One man and one beast, I don't know how many such stairs I have walked, when a bright light appeared, Xu Tian was overjoyed, and the dark path finally came to the core of the cave.
After walking a few steps, when he walked out of the staircase pipe, he saw a huge stone chamber, it is not right to say that it is a stone chamber, this is like a huge grotto, at least seven or eight meters high, about a hemispherical shape with a diameter of about tens of meters, and directly opposite is a tomb-like round stone pile.
In front of the stone pile is a stone tablet as high as one person, and when you are close to it, you can see that there are several quaint characters engraved on it.
Wutu Great Realm Teleporter.
"Portal?"
Xu Tian circled around the stone pile a few times, he knew the word teleportation, he had watched some TV series and movies before, and there would be some teleportation arrays on it, presumably these stone piles in front of him should be used for teleportation.
In addition to this portal, there is a stone house on the left and right of the portal, a freshwater lake behind it, and two skeletons that have been dead for an unknown amount of time.
The two skeletons were far apart, one of them should be a man in size, and he had a short blade stuck in his body, and the short blade went straight into the heart.
The other skeleton should be a woman, although there are no swords or anything like that, but the skull is indeed nearly half missing.
It seems that these two people should have fought before they were born, and in the end, they both fell here.
After observing the man's skull for a long time, Xu Tian noticed that there was an uncorrupted token on his waist, and cautiously picked up the token with a extinguished torch, and after seeing the words engraved on it, Xu Tian gasped.
Closing the visual distance, the token was engraved with the words "Patrol Angel".
