276 Traveling Together (M)
The underground passage has been found, and the next step is to enter the underground passage to find the source of the demonic energy, and completely eliminate this root, so that the demonic energy will not spread outward and harm more people.
This time, even if the specific task reward is still not announced, Lin Xi can guess that one of them must be kindness value, and as for how much, it probably depends on the difficulty of the task and their completion.
But before thinking about that, it's better to solve the small problem at hand.
They did push away the boulder to reveal a large hole, yes, but the pitch black one couldn't see below at all, and it was just a hole with nothing for people to pass through, although the size was enough for two people to enter together, but if Edgeworth was too big to get down, it would be impossible to get down, so could it just jump like this?
Ouyang Qing originally wanted to throw a stone to see how deep the hole was, if it wasn't too deep, he would jump down first to see, and then let the others follow. But...... The stone was thrown as if it were sinking into the sea, and it did not make a sound of falling to the ground for a long time. In this way, no one dares to take this risk, after all, no one wants to fall to their death when they are in their eighties.
Lin Xi also tried to throw the fire talisman down, but only made everyone understand more and more that this hole was unfathomable, and they didn't dare to take risks, but didn't help much.
This situation is even more difficult than before finding the underpass, a group of people around a dark hole, you look at me and I look at you for a long time, and I haven't come up with any reliable solutions.
So when a voice sounded at first glance, everyone was startled, especially after knowing that sentence, they were all a little shocked to follow the reputation.
The person who spoke was Fahai standing in the corner, and he didn't say anything else, just "I'll jump and see, at most, I will drop one level, and then practice back." ”
Xu Xian next to him quickly reacted, frowned and shook his head: "This is not a way, if it is really dead, then what about after that?" Instead of trying to find a way, do you just give up the task? ”
Fahai pouted and said, "How do you know if this will work if you don't try, can't you think of any other way now?" ”
After speaking, he wanted to rush forward and jump into the hole, but before he could jump up, he was held down steadily, and when he looked at it puzzled, he happened to meet Lin Xi's calm eyes: "I'll come." ”
"Huh!?" Not only Fahai, but even Xu Xian's attention was attracted, and they all looked at her in amazement.
Lin Xi didn't want to say more, just turned his head to look at Wei Mei, with firmness and a hint of inquiry in his eyes. When she looked at it this way, she had to withdraw her original proposal to buy a resurrection/prop, and she knew that she had decided, so she bowed her head slightly.
For Lin Xi, as long as he has no opinion, it will be fine, so before the other people around her react and want to come up and persuade her, she has already pushed Fahai away and jumped into the hole.
Her jump was not entirely impulsive, but she carefully pondered the way to deal with it in her heart, so after jumping in, she did not resign herself to descending, but had an extra heart and tried to lift her strength to stretch her feet and step on the stone wall on the side to borrow her strength to carry light skills, so that her body could listen to her own command to rise and fall. In this way, even if the hole is not deep, it will not hinder, and if it is deep, it will not waste a life.
Fortunately, although this hole is not very wide, it can also allow her to perform light skills to maintain balance, so after falling, Lin Xi still has time to take out the fire talisman from her bag and throw it down to illuminate. However, this hole is still really deep, and it has been falling for so long and it still has no bottom, it seems that either they will give up the task, or they will rely on her and Ling Xiao to bring people down one by one...... It's really troublesome.
After falling for nearly ten minutes, Lin Xi vaguely saw the end of the cave by the light of the fire talisman, at first he was only hesitant, and then he dared to be sure that it was indeed a wooden board as big as the entrance of the cave, and the surrounding area was still pitch black.
But there's no need to make sure you're in the right place, open the map and you'll see the word underpass written in your current location, and now you have to think about how to get the people above to come down, preferably effortless and flattering.
So Lin Xi paid attention to the wooden board that was an abrupt existence, and there was not even a single extra stone in the open space next to it, this wooden board was not only abrupt but also strange, saying that it was okay but I was afraid that no one would believe it.
And the difficulty of this task seems to have come to an end, Lin Xi lit the fire charm and found the strange place after looking for a while, it was an obvious mechanism that could be dialed next to the wooden plank, thinking that she still couldn't be careless, she pulled out her sword and guarded carefully, and then reached out to dial the mechanism.
Almost in the next second, the wooden board began to rise slowly, and it was not until he could not see it that Lin Xi remembered to contact Ouyang Qing.
"How? You okay? As soon as it was connected, Ouyang Qing's somewhat anxious voice sounded in his ears.
Lin Xi smiled: "I'm fine, I've landed successfully, and I'm sure this is an underground passage...... By the way, there will be a plank that will be raised later, this should be a lifting mechanism for people to walk with, you can go up as many as you can, and then talk to me when you are ready. ”
"Huh?" Ouyang Qing paused slightly, and only after a moment did he react and said, "Okay, then keep talking first." ”
It seems that he has understood that the only person who can control the mechanism is her, who has already gone down, Lin Xi didn't say much, just stood quietly, and when Ouyang Qing spoke again, he turned the mechanism again, and unsurprisingly got the news that they were descending.
The entrance of the cave can accommodate two people, but if you don't move and only stand on the wooden board, you can stand three people, and the remaining seventeen people went down to this underground passage in six batches, and then the candles were lit and pulled, and those with torches and props were also lit, and in an instant this dark clearing became bright, and it was still as empty and empty as Lin Xi had seen before, but the fire was big enough to see the entrance to the passage that she couldn't see just now.
The others didn't know the specific situation of Lin Xi, so when they saw her standing here in a good manner, they felt that there was nothing wrong, and they all walked towards the passage with excitement or relief, but Wei Mei still frowned and walked over, and asked in a low voice: "Is it really okay?" ”
Did he think she had lost another life, but he had to hide it?
Lin Xi couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, then reached over to hold him, and replied in the same soft voice: "It's really okay, I flew down slowly with light skills." ”
The charm turned her head and looked at her carefully, making sure she didn't seem to be hiding it before nodding reassuringly, although death in the game is nothing, even if she was injured and resurrected from a previous fall, she would still be uncomfortable thinking about that situation. Just now he went to buy the resurrection/prop, and no matter what, he didn't want to see her take the risk with his own eyes.
