Chapter Fifty-Nine: There Is No Way Forward
The book continued from the above, and the last book said that the sudden change made Li Tianxin shudder, they didn't expect Huan Ting to appear in front of them in disheveled clothes and covered in blood, and Du Zhen seemed to be crazy, holding a dagger and trying to stab Huan Ting. After everyone rescued Huan Ting, who was frightened, carefully checked Du Zhen's strange appearance. According to Zhao Nimei's experience, it seems that she has fallen into some kind of soul dementoring technique, and because she can't find the source of the spell, Zhao Nimei can only use spirit runes to control it and then make plans. Just when everyone was at a loss, Zhao Nimei suddenly exclaimed, this crystal coffin hanging in front of them, in it, there was no physical body. So it led out, the shallow hole was deeply suspicious and there was no way, and it turned back and detoured a few times.
"I really didn't notice this detail just now because of the suddenness of the incident." Wei Jinhong carefully looked at the giant crystal coffin in front of him.
"Yes, on the porch just now, I only saw the side of the coffin, and with the blue light, I really couldn't see anything strange inside." Zhao Nimei touched her chin thoughtfully.
"Then what to do now, Huan Ting looks like this, I guess I can't ask why." Hongying had a bitter face, she looked at Huan Ting who was trembling in her arms, and was a little anxious.
"I think let's not make any extraneous branches, let's take Huan Ting and Du Zhen to the cave." Zhao Nimei always felt that this coffin was unlucky, and it was better to go straight than to take risks.
"Okay." The people spoke in unison, packed up their things, and did not linger any longer. Zhao Nimei was still at the front of the line, Li Tianxin and Hong Ying were holding the frightened Huan Ting, and Wei Jinhong was carrying Du Yuan, who was bound by the spirit rune, to the end.
The people who were hoping for it all frowned when they arrived at the door of the cave,
"Damn, how could it be a dead end." Zhao Nimei, who was at the front of the team, couldn't help but scold.
"I didn't expect this cave to be so shallow, it's not so much a cave as a big cave."
"And how are we going to get out of here?" Hongying sat Huan Ting on the raised stone beside her, and she looked back in the direction of the crystal coffin. "Let's go in the direction of the corridor, there is no road here."
Li Tianxin took out the Gathering Fire Spirit Stone from her waist and took a clear picture of this shallow hole, at first glance, there was nothing peculiar, and when she took the soil on the cave and rubbed it carefully in her hand, she suddenly said. "The soil is moist."
Zhao Nimei also walked over, and he also took some soil and put it in his hand. "These are new soil, this cave should have been damaged and blocked."
"What's going on?" Everyone looked at Huan Ting, who was sitting on the stone with dull eyes.
"Hey, the answer to this question is only known to Huan Ting. But she shouldn't be able to say anything about her current appearance, right? Zhao Nimei sighed.
"Huan Ting, are you feeling better?" Hongying bent down and looked at Huan Ting in an attempt to wake her up. "I'm Hongying, do you remember what happened just now?"
Huan Ting slowly focused her eyes on Hongying's face, and she muttered to herself. “... There are youkai... There are a lot of youkai... They... It's going to kill us... Kill us.... Ahh
Huan Ting suddenly pushed Hongying in front of her to the ground without warning, and then ran wildly in the direction of the crystal coffin, even the clothes on her body were thrown off.
"Not good!" Zhao Nimei hurriedly chased after her, for fear that something would happen.
After Tianxin picked up Hongying, he also chased after him. Hongying looked at their backs, and felt more and more self-reproachful in her heart, she picked up Huan Ting's clothes that had fallen on the ground just now, and shook the soil on them.
"Don't blame yourself too much, everything has a cause and effect, and it is not something that one person can decide." Wei Jinhong, who was carrying Du Zhen on his back, signaled to Hongying not to keep worrying about what he had just done. The two looked at each other and smiled, and walked over as well.
"Catch her, she's going to fall!" Li Tianxin exclaimed.
"When did this girl have such good physical strength!" Zhao Nimei flew and threw Huan Ting directly to the ground, and with the few gravels that fell down, Zhao Nimei couldn't help but sigh. "Obediently, if it weren't for Lao Tzu's neat hands and feet, this would fall, but it would be an abyss!"
"But... Okay..."Li Tianxin ran out of breath, she smiled slightly, and stretched out a thumbs up to Zhao Nimei.
In the end, everyone who had no way out returned to the front of this crystal coffin again. Huan Ting, who was controlled, never got better, she was almost crazy and pulled her hair, Tianxin and Hongying couldn't control Huan Ting at all, where is this still the usual soft and weak eldest lady, the whole female madman. Zhao Nimei simply wrote another spirit rune and pasted it cleanly on Huan Ting's head, which made everyone stop.
"What kind of broken game is this, do you want the lives of our outer disciples?" Hongying sat down on the ground, and she was annoyed. "Do you want to have a good time, what is this, good people are crazy?"
Zhao Nimei was speechless for a while, he didn't expect things to develop like this, in the group competition in previous years, although there were some missing arms and legs, but it was true that there were not so many lives like this year, he didn't know what happened to this little Wuxiangfeng, why it was so strange.
"Hongying, don't talk nonsense." After Wei Jinhong put Du Zhen next to Huan Ting, he looked around, trying to find another way out. "Will there be any other way out?"
"It's not in heaven, is it?" Hongying negative airway. "We're trapped in this place where birds don't poop now, and even if we use beacons, they won't be able to see them."
"Why don't I go back to the porch just now and explore the way." Zhao Nimei proposed, after all, he is also their senior, and in terms of seniority, he should also find a way.
"No, it's very strange to look here, you act alone, I'm afraid something will happen." Wei Jinhong stopped Zhao Nimei. "If we have to investigate, we'd better act together."
Zhao Nimei knew that what Wei Jinhong said was reasonable, but it was not a way to stay like this.
"I don't know what time it is, it's dark!" Hongying picked up the hose and took a sip of it indignantly.
"Do you think that this coffin is like a door?" After thinking about it, Li Tian suddenly said to them.
"Door?" Everyone was startled at first, and then they all looked at the crystal coffin, carefully trying to find out what flaws.
"You mean?" Zhao Nimei seemed to understand what Tianxin meant.
"You see, Huan Ting and Du Zhen came out of this crystal coffin just now, let's assume it." Li Tianxin paced. "Suppose that at that time, after Huan Ting broke up with Hongying, she ran to the depths of the cave, and then Du Zhen also left. The two groped all the way, and they must have reached the starting point of the chain just now, and they also saw Feige. After some consideration, the two decided to continue to walk forward, and the moment they stepped on the Flying Pavilion, like us, they also fell into the roundabout corridor just now, the two of them may have collided by mistake, or they were in a hurry, and found the right route and arrived at the crystal coffin where we are at the moment. According to the logic of ordinary people, they must have thought that the shallow hole just now was the next road, so they would inevitably choose the obvious shallow hole instead of entering this strange crystal coffin. ”
"That's right." Wei Jinhong nodded.
"But from the fact that we investigated the shallow cave, we can judge that Huan Ting and they must have encountered some trouble when they got there, and then caused the cave to collapse, thus blocking the place." Li Tianxin continued.
"In that case, the moist new soil will be gone." Zhao Nimei was thoughtful.
"As for why they got into this crystal coffin, it may be a coincidence." Li Tianxin touched his chin and looked at Huan Ting and Du Zhen who were bound by spirit runes on the side.
"Serendipity?" Zhao Nimei raised her eyebrows. "You mean, there's a mechanism here?"
"Whether there is a mechanism or not, I don't know. But it must have happened that they had to enter this coffin, otherwise, who would drill into the coffin, could it be a dedication of love, chatting with the dead, and relieving boredom? Li Tianxin spread his hands. But there's one thing I want to know in particular. ”
"What?" Wei Jinhong also followed Tianxin's words, adding the picture at that time in his mind, Huanting The problems they might have encountered before.
"I'm not sure if Du Zhen was controlled by the soul before entering the coffin, or after entering the coffin." Tianxin has some concerns. "If something happens to them after entering this coffin, then what price will we pay in the face of this only way out?"
"You mean, we're going to go into this coffin?" Hongying didn't understand until now.
"There's no way out right now, what else can I do but here?" Li Tianxin shook his head helplessly.
"Then I'll go in first and explore the way." Wei Jinhong thought about it and made up his mind.
"Tsk, just now you said that you want to act together, and you are slapped in the face?" Zhao Nimei naturally would not let go of this opportunity for revenge, and he looked at Wei Jinhong with the corners of his mouth slanted.
"Tianxin, what do you say?"
"Do you have any rope left?" Li Tianxin replied to the question.
"Also, I put it all away later, thinking about how it might be used." Wei Jinhong took out most of the rope that was cut by Li Tianxin just now from the trap.
"I have that here." Zhao Nimei also took out her own one and handed it to Li Tianxin.
Tianxin tied the rope and formed another one, and she tied the rope around everyone's waist. "I'll go in in a moment to make sure there's no danger, I'll pull the rope, and then Hongying will come in again, and so on."
"Why did you go in first?" Hongying was a little worried about Li Tianxin, after all, her skills were slightly inferior compared to the others.
"If after a while, I enter this coffin and I am also hit by the soul magic, and I am also the one with the weakest attack power, you can completely control me. So our order is me, you, Jin Hong, Zhao Nimei, and those two incapable people. Tianxin looked at Hongying and them with a smile, a little tragic.
