Chapter 270: Leaving the Mine
"Sodi, we've found it! I didn't expect there to be so many here... Li Qing sighed.
"That's right, I didn't expect to find it so soon." Suo Di looked at the star stones around him, leaned over, and took a closer look, "There's a hammer in the bag, bring it to me!" β
Li Qing quickly took out a special hammer from his backpack and handed it to Suodi.
"Bang Bang" went down a few times, and the pile of star stones in front of Suodi was broken.
He picked up a piece and looked at the lines on it, which were exactly the same as those in Yuan Ling's photo.
"Looks like that's it."
The amount that Yuan Ling needed was not much, but Li Qing and Suo Di still smashed a full backpack before stopping.
With the Star Stone in hand, there is no reason to stay here any longer, the next step is to find a way out.
It's not impossible to go back the way you came, but the road is too complicated, and Sodi thinks there should be another exit nearby.
So the two of them took their backpacks and began to move on in the cave.
The cave is large and has an irregular circular shape. After walking for a long time, they couldn't find any passages, but in the end, Sodi found that they had returned to the place where they had mined the Star Stone in the first place.
Li Qing was carrying a backpack full of stones, and he had no strength. He sat on the ground, gasped and said, "It's really not good, we can only go back the way we came... β
Suo Di frowned after hearing this, it stands to reason that there should be no exit here?
When they came, it was good to say that now they were carrying such heavy stones, and it would be very difficult for them to return the same way.
"You rest first, and I'll look for it." After dropping these words, Sodi disappeared into the darkness.
Li Qing held a backpack of stones and leaned against the rock wall to nap. They have been out for I don't know how many days, because they have been in the cave, and they can't tell the difference between day and night, and they haven't even closed their eyes for such a long time.
In addition, he was tired enough to carry a stone just now, and since Suodi let him rest, Li Qing certainly would not let go of this opportunity.
As soon as I closed my eyes, I fell asleep quickly...
In his sleep, Li Qing heard the sound of something hitting in a daze, but he was so sleepy that he thought he was dreaming and didn't get up.
"Bang bang!"
Suddenly, overhead, several loud noises rang out, and even the rocks under their feet shook.
Li Qing was shocked and tilted over, and then he opened his eyes from his sleep.
I saw that on the top of my head, I don't know when, a big hole appeared, and outside the hole, there was a red sky!
Countless gravel fell from the entrance of the cave, and Li Qing hurriedly escaped from this place in shock.
Only then did he realize that Sodi was standing aside.
"What's going on?" Li Qing asked in shock.
"You're sleeping too hard... Suo Di replied quietly.
Li Qing's face turned red suddenly, and he was simply in the dim cave, not obvious, "I'm too tired... Did you do this big hole? β
"There's no one else here but me," Suo Di said, "I couldn't find a way out after looking for a long time, so I had to drive one myself." β
"How did you do that?" Li Qing saw that this hole was very deep, and it was on the top of the cave, how could ordinary people do it!
"With the power of nerve impulses, it's not that hard." Suo Di said, and then raised his hand and threw something to Li Qing.
After Li Qing caught it, he found that it was the hammer they used to mine the Star Stone.
The material of this hammer Li Qing had never seen before, it was very hard, and it was specially used by the gods to mine stone.
At this time, the hammer in Li Qing's hand had become tattered and could not be used again. It seems that Sodi really used it to smash open the rock wall above.
Li Qing really admired Suodi, and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
"Okay, let's get ready to go up, go out from here, I guess I can go back before dark."
"Well, that's great."
After Li Qing finished speaking, he picked up his backpack and prepared to follow him up.
"You wait for me here first." After saying that, he took a leap and flew out of the hole.
The speed was too fast, and Li Qing only saw a blue electric wave flash from Suo Di's body, and he had already disappeared at the entrance of the cave.
Soon, a rope was lowered from the hole.
Then, Sodi leaned out of the hole and shouted "Come up!" below. β
Li Qing grabbed the rope, took one last look at the cave, and climbed up with great difficulty.
Outside the entrance to the cave, at the highest point of the mountains, there were rocks all over the place, and some low weeds grew between the crevices of the stones.
Li Qing stood on a large rock, and could see the valley where the farmer's courtyard was located in the distance.
This distance is much farther than he imagined.
At this time, the mountain range they were in was exactly two opposite directions to the cave where they had disembarked before.
"Shall we walk back from the top of the mountain?" Li Qing asked.
He also saw just now that the road to the top of the mountain is not easy to walk, there are large and small rocks and cliffs everywhere, and there are deep cracks between some rocks, and the road on the top of the mountain is windy and narrow, so it will be very dangerous to go on like this.
Suo Di hesitated for a moment, "If you go back, it's a little dangerous... He obviously noticed the problem as well, "Just go straight down and go to the bottom of the valley and go." β
"Straight down... Go down? How? "This mountain is very high, and I am afraid that it will not be fatal if I go down directly.
"I still have some ropes in my backpack, and with the ones I just used, the length is enough."
"You mean? We just grabbed the rope and climbed down? β
"Yes, you wouldn't dare, would you?"
At this time, of course Li Qing would not admit that he was timid.
"Of course I dare, just do it!"
Sodi smiled, "Okay, I'll go get ready, you can stay here." β
With that, Sodi put away the rest of the rope and walked towards the edge of the mountain, where he soon disappeared behind a pile of rubble.
It was supposed to be early afternoon, but it was very windy, so Li Qing put down his backpack and leaned against a leeward rock, waiting for the ground.
Time passed minute by minute, Suodi had not come back, Li Qing was a little bored, so he got up and planned to go around.
As a result, before he could take a few steps, he heard a low bark of "snoring" around him.
Li Qing immediately stopped in fright, looking around vigilantly.
He was familiar with this kind of sound, and in the past, at home, his favorite program was about animals, and the tone of this voice was obviously the sound that animals would make when they were ready to attack.
Is there a beast of prey in this mountain?
Li Qing thought of this, goosebumps all over his body rose, and now he didn't have any weapons and equipment on him, let alone dealing with a beast, even a dog, he couldn't do it.
It's over, are you going to call for a land?
As a result, before Li Qing could speak, the low barking suddenly disappeared.
Li Qing was startled, and paid attention to the surrounding movement as he retreated.
Suddenly, a white streak flashed through the crack in the stone on the left.
What animal? It will be so fast!
Li Qing clenched his teeth, hurriedly returned to the leeward rock, leaned against it, and did not dare to make a soundγγγγγγ
