Chapter Forty-Eight: Revealed
"Don't worry!"
When Sima Jiu heard the news, he was immediately overjoyed.
He hurriedly withdrew his feet and turned to look at Nalan Lingyun.
"It seems that Sister Lingyun is the best, for the sake of my safety, she doesn't want me to be in danger."
Nalan Lingyun smiled faintly and said busily: "Brother Jiu, you think too much, I didn't mean that, really." ”
"Huh?"
Sima Jiu was speechless for a moment, and said in his heart: "That's not what you mean, what are you shouting?" Let this handsome guy be happy in vain, and praise you at a loss. ”
"Before leaving, Master gave me a medicine bottle, saying that I could use it when I took Baishan Yanlu."
As he spoke, Nalan Lingyun took out a medicine bottle from his satchel.
The medicine bottle is very special, it looks, it is exactly the same as the medicine bottle in the Ice and Fire Pool.
Sima Jiu's face was embarrassed, as if he had been ruthlessly abandoned, with an unhappy expression.
"Next!"
Sima Jiu took the medicine bottle in response and took a cursory look.
Not to mention, the flower and grass patterns engraved on the surface of the medicine bottle are really good.
The pattern of flowers and plants is fine and unique, and the pattern is integrated with the bottle body, which is a proper handicraft.
Although the medicine bottle was a good thing, Sima Jiu didn't have the heart to appreciate its beauty.
He turned to look at the medicine bottle on the crystal pillar in the Ice and Fire Pool.
Then, after his gaze fell on the stone pillar in front of him, he cautiously stretched out his foot again.
"Hopefully, this pillar will bear my weight."
Sima Jiu landed on the stone pillar, and when he was sure that the stone pillar would not shake and could bear his weight, he stabilized his body and stretched out his other foot.
Sima Jiu moved slowly, for fear of an accident.
Behind him, Li Jiancheng and the others watched his every move with bated breath.
Pull a hair and move the whole body, and everyone is shocked when he lands on a foot.
Every step of Sima Jiu made everyone worried, especially Sima Ruohua, who looked tense and uneasy.
Suddenly, the cave hall became unusually quiet, so quiet that even the sound of breathing seemed extremely abrupt, which made people panic.
Sima Jiu's two arms were both spread out, maintaining his balance, and step by step on the stone pillar in the ice and fire pool, approaching the crystal stone pillar in the center of the pool.
One-step.
Two steps.
Three steps.
......
Minutes and seconds passed.
Obviously, there is only a distance of more than three meters, but if it is placed in normal times, it will be walked in minutes.
However, at this time, it took Sima Jiu half an hour to settle on the ninth stone pillar.
Sima Jiu held the crystal stone pillar in the ice and fire pool, secretly overjoyed.
"It worked!"
"Just pick up the bottle, follow the same path, and return to the shore, and you're all right."
So, Sima Jiu reached out and wanted to take the medicine bottle on the crystal stone pillar.
At this moment, Nalan Lingyun suddenly reminded loudly: "That's right, Brother Jiu, there is one more thing." ”
"What's the matter?"
Sima Jiu couldn't turn around, so he stopped and waited for Nalan Lingyun to speak.
"Master said that Baishan Yanlu is extremely precious, and it takes nine months to produce a drop."
"So what?"
"So you have to be careful, be careful, don't waste it."
"I'm doing something, aren't you still at ease?"
Nalan Lingyun responded unabashedly: "It's a little ....... ”
Sima Jiu's face immediately sank, and he said angrily: "Okay, okay, don't worry, I know what to do." ”
As he spoke, Sima Jiu was ready to reach out for the medicine bottle.
Just as he touched the medicine bottle on the crystal pillar, suddenly, he seemed to realize something.
Then, he turned his head to look at the medicine bottle in his other hand and suddenly came to his senses.
"Baishan Yanlu is extremely precious and cannot be wasted, so this medicine bottle that Lingyun gave me is used to replace the medicine bottle I took away."
"As the so-called: cherries are delicious and difficult to plant, steamed buns are delicious and noodles are difficult to grind, Baishan Yanlu only produces a drop in nine months, and it is not easy to accumulate, if there is no container to hold Baishan Yanlu, in the future, there will be no Baishan Yanlu."
As soon as he thought of this, Sima Jiu knew what to do.
After he took away the medicine bottle that originally contained Baishan Yanlu, he carefully placed the empty medicine bottle given to him by Nalan Lingyun in the place where the original medicine bottle was.
After Sima Jiu confirmed that there was no problem, he slowly turned around, stepped on the stone pillar, and returned the same way.
There are seven steps left.
Six steps.
Five steps.
......
When Sima Jiu's feet landed on the shore, everyone's tense heartstrings were immediately relaxed, and they were relieved and happy.
However, at this moment, the mechanism in the cave hall was transmitted again.
"Won't you, again?"
In the Shuiyue Cave Mansion, it seems that as long as the sound of the mechanism transmission sounds, something unexpected will happen.
After Sima Jiu was tortured several times, yes, it was torture, and he had already developed a conditioned reflex to the sound of the mechanism's transmission.
This time, however, he was 'disappointed'.
A moment later, the mechanism that had originally locked Li Jiancheng, Sima Ruohua, and Nalan Lingyun was accompanied by a series of mechanism transmission sounds, and they quickly let go, and then retracted into the ground.
And the stone pillars in the ice and fire pools are also slowly hidden under the water.
Everything in the cave hall was restored to the way they had when they first entered the cave hall.
"Ninth brother, you succeeded!"
"That's, don't look at who's out of the way."
As he spoke, Sima Jiu took the medicine bottle and showed it off in front of him.
Seeing this, Li Jiancheng hurriedly stepped in front of Sima Jiu, staring at the medicine bottle in Sima Jiu's hand, his eyes lit up, and he was extremely excited.
"Here, what is contained in this should be Baishan Yanlu."
Sima Jiu handed the medicine bottle to Li Jiancheng.
"Uncle Brother is saved!"
"Thank you."
Li Jiancheng took the medicine bottle with an excited expression, and when he wanted to hug Sima Jiu to express his gratitude, Sima Jiu immediately stopped and said, "Don't, don't!" ”
"That...... Brother Jiancheng, there is a lot of danger in this Shuiyue Cave Mansion, let's go out first. ”
"Good!"
Subsequently, Li Jiancheng made a concise arrangement: "Let's exit this cave hall according to the original way, and then, act at the opportunity." ”
"Good!"
Although, after entering the Water Moon Cave Mansion, there were twists and turns all the way.
However, in the end, it was successfully obtained from Baishan Yanlu.
Because of this, everyone's mood was much more relaxed, and even the return journey was much smoother.
They left the cave hall, passed through several stone chambers one after another, and walked through the winding tunnels for a long time, and finally, a long-lost light appeared in front of them.
The light was very different from the light in the Water Moon Cave Mansion.
Obviously, that should be an export.
"Here, it seems, isn't the place where we came in?"
Sima Jiu glanced ahead, then looked back again, puzzled.
However, Sima Ruohua responded nonchalantly: "Whatever, as long as you can get out, it doesn't matter what way you go." ”
"Do you still want to go back?"
Sima Jiuyi couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the three-headed and six-armed machine man, as well as the terrifying stone pillars in the Ice and Fire Pool.
"Huh! Don't go back. ”
"Don't say anything, this time, I'll lead the way."
While speaking, Sima Jiu did not wait for everyone to respond, then crossed Li Jiancheng and walked quickly towards the light.
"This guy!"
Li Jiancheng shook his head angrily, saying that he was speechless about Sima Jiu's behavior.
Afterwards, he said to Nalan Lingyun and Sima Ruohua: "You go ahead, and my palace is behind." ”
"Good!"
Soon after.
"Don't ink, keep up."
Sima Jiu joked: "If you let Brother Feng Li wait for a long time, it will be very unfriendly. ”
When he had finished speaking, he ran out of the cave.
"It's so good that I finally made it out alive ......"
Sima Jiu had just run out of the cave, looking up at the sky, and before he could finish his exclamation, suddenly, a gentle voice came into his ears.
"You're out!"
