Chapter 289: Escape from the Stone Gate
The four walls of the passage were smooth, there was no light around them, he couldn't see anything clearly, he couldn't grasp anything, and Liang Cheng could only feel himself falling rapidly in the passage, like swallowed food, down the tortuous and long esophagus. I don't know where the passage leads, but the next second awaits us in a safe open space, or rows of deadly wooden thorns.
The unknown is often frightening, but isn't Liang Cheng living in all kinds of unknowns today? The unknown made Liang Cheng accustomed to sudden crises, the unknown made Liang Cheng full of hope for the future, the unknown made Liang Cheng forget his fear, and the unknown also brought Liang Cheng one surprise after another.
The sound of the wind from the hollow passage kept whistling in his ears, and Liang Cheng's nose was also cold and sore by the cold wind that kept hitting him. Then, the slope of the passage gradually becomes gentle. Liang Cheng couldn't tell how long he had slipped and even Liang Cheng couldn't detect the existence of Zhao Youyi.
Zhao Youyu didn't make a sound, he became a part of the darkness as if he was completely integrated into the darkness.
Zhao Youyu is a very unusual person, and the longer you get along with him, the more you can find that he has a fierce temperament that is by no means different from any ordinary person. His super-level fighting style and his superhuman calmness in the face of danger. There is a very strong intuition that has been telling Liang Cheng that Zhao Youyu is definitely not an ordinary person, and everything about him seems to be inextricably linked to Liang Cheng's father.
Liang Cheng thought of the silver dagger again, and Zhao Youyu seemed to be very sensitive to Liang Cheng's father's dagger. And what is the relationship between Liang Cheng's father and him, have they met before? To be honest, Liang Cheng was not very impressed with his father, because Liang Cheng knew almost zero about them when his father and mother went out all the year round.
Don't think about it, Liang Cheng said to himself. The more in-depth he thought, the more curious Liang Cheng became about this matter, and in Liang Cheng's mind, there were only a few fragments of broken memories, and the intense swelling pain from the depths of his mind made Liang Cheng even more unbearable. Liang Cheng can only quietly face this unknown, looking forward to the mystery that this mystery may solve in the future. All Liang Cheng can do is wait and live well.
With the last violent impact, Liang Cheng stopped in a clearing. Liang Cheng opened his eyes weakly, and the dark passage switched into a dark rock like a transition. Liang Cheng took a soft breath, then slowly turned his head to the side.
It looks like a huge karst cave around, and layers of huge rocks build up this dim cave, and at the top of the cave there seems to be a lot of fluorescent fluorite, like stars in the night sky with a faint light. At the top of the cave hangs clusters of inverted cones of varying lengths, some of which have fallen to the ground, forming a spectacular column that supports the entire cavern like a load-bearing column.
At this time, a slight sigh sounded beside the cave wall not far away, and a person slowly sat up from the ground. The man looked around, then slowly stood up again. At this time, the man noticed Liang Cheng and walked towards Liang Cheng.
"Liang Cheng." It was Chen Qi's voice.
The confused and dreamy feeling gradually subsided, and only then did I feel the dryness and fatigue of my eyes and the numbness from my body. Chen Qi walked to Liang Cheng's side and helped Liang Cheng up, he looked around Liang Cheng, and then asked, "Where did Zhao Youyu go?" ”
Liang Cheng also looked around, and Zhao Youyan was gone. Obviously, Zhao Youyu fell along the passage with Liang Cheng, how could he disappear out of thin air. Puzzlement and doubts kept tinkering in Liang Cheng's heart, Liang Cheng looked back at the dark passage behind him, but he couldn't see through anything.
Liang Cheng shook his head gently: "I don't know. ”
Chen Qi seemed to be thinking about something, and after a while, he looked at the passage he had slipped down and said, "Since it is the door of life and the door of death, the destination leads to the same place, and there is no mechanism. ”
"Maybe the person who built the cave forgot to arrange the mechanism?" Liang Cheng said guessingly.
Chen Qi shook his head: "I don't know, I just feel very confused." “
It's really confusing. Liang Cheng thought that the existence of this cave was already incredible, according to Zhao Youyi's previous analysis, this seemingly ordinary cave was full of contradictions, obviously used to place the carvings and decorations but everywhere hidden hatred, obviously a secret room that connects to the outside world and is convenient for outsiders to enter, but there are design mechanisms everywhere to prevent outsiders from entering. What is the existence of this secret room of a huge combination of contradictions, and is it forced to build by a giant python as Zhao Youyu said? Also, how did the python enslave humans at that time?
One mystery after another kept pouring towards Liang Cheng. Suddenly, Chen Qi gently pushed my back, interrupting Liang Cheng's thinking: "It's not a way to stay like this, let's keep walking." “
Liang Cheng nodded. Since there was no flashlight, Liang Cheng could only walk slowly in the cave in the dark. This is a naturally formed karst cave, the roof of the cave is submerged in darkness due to the visual distance, like a huge night sky, and occasionally a few scattered fluorites are seen illuminating a small area around it, forming independent lone stars. It didn't take long for Liang Cheng's eyes to get used to the darkness, and in the darkness he could faintly see the outline of something nearby.
Chen Qi walked side by side with Liang Cheng with a weapon. Because there was not much light in the cave, it was difficult to fill the ammunition in a short time once the magazines were empty, so Liang Cheng had prepared several magazines in advance and put them in his close-fitting clothes before he left. I gripped the dagger at my waist tightly, watching everything around me with alarm.
The road came to an end. A huge cliff-like cave wall stood in front of Liang Cheng, and when he looked around, it was full of stones. Liang Cheng stopped in front of the cave wall. "There's no way out." Liang Cheng said softly.
Chen Qi looked around and said, "There is a rumor, there should be a way." “
Hearing Chen Qi say this, Liang Chengcai noticed the sound of the wind in his ears. The sound of the wind was very small, and I don't know where it came from, in the quiet darkness like an empty and gentle cry of a grieving soul, bleak and gloomy. Liang Cheng listened carefully to this ethereal voice, and his heart began to tremble with this cold voice. The voice rises and falls, sometimes like a calm sob, sometimes like a howling fury.
Chen Qi kept pacing in place, as if looking for the source of this sound. After a long time, Chen Qi slowly looked up at the upper end of the stone wall.
