Chapter 237: God's Footprints
The inside of the cave is not as dark as Gong Qianbai and others imagined, but bright as the light of the morning, and if you look closely, you will find that the stone wall at the top of the cave is inlaid with a layer of glowing spars, and countless spars are connected into a belt of light like the Milky Way.
"Luxury! With so much sunstone, they must have gotten a sunstone mine, which is worth a lot of money when it's a big slapp, and so many sunstones are simply rich enough to rival the country! Gong Qianbai sighed.
When Kang Xiaojian heard this, his eyes lit up and he asked, "How about we cut it off?" ”
Gong Qianbai shook his head: "It's not the time yet, it's important to escape!" Next time, you're welcome! ”
"Okay!" Kang Xiaojian replied disappointedly. Gong Qianbai was angry and funny when he saw his greedy appearance, and with a wave of the Jiuli Holy Halberd, he knocked down two fist-sized stones and handed them to Kang Xiaojian.
"Take it! When the torch is lit! ”
Kang Xiaojian happily took these two sunstones, which were brighter than the night pearls, and stuffed them into his arms, and his mood was finally much better.
"Stop them!"
Dozens of guards brandished weapons to block the road, and Gong Qianbai turned their beaters on their backs with just one palm, stepped over them and continued to move forward.
"There's a fork in the road ahead, which way are we going?" Gong Qianbai turned around and asked Chu Liyan.
Chu Liyan glanced at it, pointed to the left and said, "Judging from the traces around the entrance of the cave, there are few people passing on the left, and there are often people on the right!" ”
"Then go to the left!"
Gong Qianbai said without hesitation, now they are running for their lives, of course they have to go to a place where there are few people.
However, after running fifty or sixty steps, I encountered a fork in the road again.
"There are more people on the left and fewer people on the right!" Chu Liyan glanced at it and said.
"Then go to the right!"
Gong Qianbai led the three of them forward again. Maybe they chose the right road, and no one stopped them along the way, so they kept running and running, crossing more than a dozen forks in the road in a row, running tens of thousands of steps, and the sunstone belt above their heads had long since disappeared, relying only on the two pieces of light that Kang Xiaojian was holding in his hand.
"Stop for a moment!" Chu Liyan called out to Gong Qianbai and said to the three of them, "I don't think it's right, from the time we ran more than 7,000 steps, not only did the sunstone on our heads disappear, but there were also few traces of people passing on the road, this should not be an entrance, I think it's more like a forbidden place!" There may be unknown dangers in front of us, we have to think clearly before moving forward, and it may be too late to quit now! ”
Dhara Shang thought for a moment and said, "This cave seems to be natural, at least not artificially dug; The volume of his interior is very large, and I feel that the entire Helan Mountain may be full of this kind of cave, so there are many people living here, as far as I know, there are thousands of people. We've been running for so long, there's no reason why they can't spot us, and if we return, we're likely to face thousands of people, and that's something you have to think about! ”
"That's right!" Gong Qianbai said, "It's impossible to go back now, I know other ways!" Even if it is a forbidden place, with our strength, we may not be able to break through, and maybe we can break a way! ”
Kang Xiaojian raised his hand: "I agree with Little Cypress!" ”
Chu Liyan sighed: "Then keep going!" ”
After walking another 1,000 steps or so, the terrain of the cave became more and more complicated, and the road under his feet became more and more difficult to walk, and it was completely impossible to run as fast as at the beginning, so the four people had to move forward cautiously under the leadership of Gong Qianbai. After walking another 1,000 steps like this, Gong Qianbai surprised everyone to stop.
"What's wrong? I found an exit? Chu Liyan asked.
Gong Qianbai nodded: "Most likely, I smelled the fragrance of flowers and plants!" ”
"Only when there is sunshine can there be flowers and plants, great, we have finally found an exit!"
Several people were excited and happy, the fatigue on their bodies was reduced a lot, and the pace under their feet became brisker.
continued to walk forward, and after walking dozens of steps, it was still as dark as ink ahead, which made everyone have a trace of doubt in their hearts. Even Gong Qianbai had self-doubt:
"Could it be that I'm hallucinating? But the fragrance of the flowers and plants is indeed getting closer and closer, and I even feel that they are nearby, but how come there is not even a glimmer of light, and even the air here shows no sign of circulation? ”
"Let's find out if the entrance to the cave is sealed by stones! Since the cave has extended here, as long as we look carefully, I believe that there will always be discoveries! Chu Liyan cheered everyone up.
Kang Xiaojian also nodded: "Ah Yan is right!" Let's look around! There are only two sunstones, I use one for Brother Dhara and I, and one for the two of you, let's find one side and see if we can find something! ”
That's it. The four of them divided into two groups and began to search, and every crack in the stone wall was the target of their exploration, and even the suspicious places under their feet were picked up by them.
"You two come!"
Kang Xiaojian and Tuo Luoshang suddenly heard Gong Qianbai's voice, the two looked at each other, and they both felt a little bad in their hearts, and walked to the place where Gong Qianbai and Chu Liyan were in confusion.
On the ground, a small lush green grass is quietly sitting there, the blades of the grass are full and crystalline, more vigorous than the flowers and plants facing the morning sun outside.
Kang Xiaojian looked around in disbelief and exclaimed, "Hell! How could such grass grow in such a dark place? And still grow so vigorous? ”
Chu Liyan asked Dharashang: "This grass grows very strangely, at least the Central Plains have never heard of it; Brother Dhara knows such grass? ”
Dhara Shang shook his head and said, "I have never seen it, I have never heard of it!" ”
Everyone looked at Gong Qianbai again, and now only he could know about this grass. If you can know the origin of this grass, this is also a clue, maybe you can find the exit.
At this time, Gong Qianbai was staring at the grass thoughtfully, and he couldn't see the joy and sorrow on his face at all.
"Ahba? Do you remember something? Chu Liyan asked softly.
"I do know this grass!" Gong Qianbai's eyes are deep, as if he has seen a distant starry sky, giving people an ethereal feeling.
"What do you think of this grass growing in a place?"
Hearing this, the three of them each looked down and said in unison: "It's like a footprint!" ”
"That's right! It's footprints! Footprints of God! Gong Qianbai said in a heavy tone.
"Footprints of God? Is there really a god in this world? ”
"Absolutely!" Gong Qianbai said angrily, "It's just that we can't see it anymore, because all the gods in the world suddenly disappeared thousands of years ago, and there are still some relics of gods in the world...... The place we are in is probably just one! ”
