Following Sheng Shiyao's fingers, he found that he was pointing to the dark place of the deep pool, looked back at him suspiciously, and gradually sniffed out something from his expression. A light suddenly flashed in his mind, just now Zhou Tong said, if the military advisor becomes a thousand-year-old monster, then the Khitan King will become a thousand-year-old demon, is it ...... Could it be that the Khitan king has become...... Lake monsters?

This...... It's too weird to talk nonsense.

But thinking back to the giant shape of the monster at the entrance of the cave, it is not impossible. Moreover, it had been deduced before that Liu Yue and the three of them might have been sent to the boulder by the military advisor who had mutated into monsters, what prompted him to do so? The lake monster was at the bottom of the deep pool, and he couldn't possibly not know. Or rather, this place is their nest in itself.

Did the military advisor send the three of them to the boulder as sacrifices to the lake monster, that is, his Khitan king?

But I still felt unreasonable, and said to Sheng Shiyao hesitantly: "Isn't the lake monster itself existing? The painting in the ancient building depicts a whirlpool, which later led us to deduce that the cause of the villagers' deaths was the contamination of the water by the lake monster. And you see that the water in this pool is all black water, and this must be the base camp of the lake monster, so that inference is correct. Judging from time or logic, the Khitan King could not have been a lake monster. ”

Sheng Shiyao fell into deep thought again, and after a long time, he said quietly: "Maybe." The entanglement was finally over, I sighed in my heart, just relieved, but I heard him say again: "There is another possibility, the original lake monster was killed, and then the Khitan king became a monster in the deep pool, otherwise it is impossible to explain where he went, and why didn't the military advisor leave this cave and still set up a formation inside." ”

Feeling powerless, I said to him helplessly: "Don't you think you're too? Why do you have to analyze the results, whether it is a military advisor who may mutate into a monster, or a lake monster in the deep pool, they are all dead now, so it doesn't matter where the Khitan King went, what matters is how we get out of this ghost place. ”

Sheng Shiyao fell silent, and just when I thought he wouldn't speak again, I suddenly heard him whisper as if to himself: "Maybe it's important." I shook my head and sighed, dead brain, I usually see him indifferent, I didn't think he was such a dead person.

After that, they didn't discuss it again, no matter what the truth was, they had reached a dead end. Even if the monster in the lake is really the Khitan King, it only means that this nation is truly extinct today. If it's true, I was also involved in this historic moment, and I was an accomplice in the extermination.

Next, we discussed the plan and counted the materials around us. Liu Yue frowned so much that she was about to turn into a Sichuan character after seeing my coat surrounded by Sheng Shiyao, she kicked Zhou Tong and asked him to take off his pants for Sheng Shiyao to wear, Zhou Tong said bitterly: "I have already contributed a coat, mainly ...... The main thing is that I don't have underwear inside, and you want me to run naked when my pants are off? In the end, not only did his face turn red, but Liu Yue also looked embarrassed, turned his head to call Liuzi, but choked after only calling his name.

I looked at Liuzi, and his pants were torn and uncovered, all of them were holes that had been bitten by Tibetan mastiffs before, and the strips of cloth hung there, so embarrassed. Liuzi's black eyes are quite innocent, which means that he is like this, do you want him to pick up his pants? I couldn't help but want to laugh, it seems that Sheng Shiyao has to wrap around my coat until I go out.

In the end, Liu Yue still has a way, I don't know where she found the needle and thread from the baggage, and actually cut and sewed the coat on her body into men's pants, and waited for Sheng Shiyao to change and come over, although it didn't match Zhou Tong's top, but at least it was a lot better than wearing a women's jacket. Then my jacket was discarded on the ground by Liu Yue, sighed and picked it up silently, wanting to wear it, but I couldn't pass my own level, so I folded it up and put it in the baggage.

Due to the lack of water, we didn't have time to stay here to rest, and when the clothing problem was solved, we helped each other to find a way out. The area around the deep pool, in fact, is clear at a glance, completely closed, and the only passage is the road we walked into.

But we still didn't let go of any corner and searched again and again, because walking back means re-entering the maze, although Sheng Shiyao has been able to break the formation, but from here to the entrance of the cave is not close, when we come in, except for the time wasted being trapped in the maze, we have at least walked for a day or so. It would take more than a day to take a boat from the mouth of the cave to the village, and we only had half a bottle of clean water left, and each person drank an average sip of two or three mouthfuls, which would last for a few days.

It is always said that there is no endless way, but each of us understands that we have reached the end of the world, and if we can't find a way out, we will inevitably be trapped here.

Sheng Shiyao made an absolutely encouraging judgment, saying that this place must be connected to the outside, otherwise it would be impossible for the lake monster to enter the deep pool from the green lake outside. This really gave hope to all of us, and everyone did not give up looking for something suspicious, but I was worried, because I guessed that the biggest possibility that the lake monster could enter the deep pool was that there was a waterway under the pool leading to the outer lake, but the water in this pool was so black that Sheng Shiyao couldn't soak in it for a while, let alone us?

I didn't say anything about this worry, for fear that it would affect everyone's morale, but morale will gradually disappear with the passage of time and the fruitless search. From each other's eyes, they saw despair, and everyone's eyes were fixed on Sheng Shiyao, he was unmoved, always staring at the compass and compass in his hand, and kept proofreading.

I don't know how much Feng Shui can help us at this time, but I can only hope that fortune can be biased in our favor, and finally Sheng Shiyao pointed to a certain direction and said to me: "Xiaoxiao, you dig three feet into that stone wall with the shadow moon to see." ”

Whether it was useful or not, I immediately stepped forward to execute it, but fortunately, Shadow Moon was sharp enough that cutting a stone wall would not be a problem. But after digging three feet, it was still a stone, and I looked back at him and waited for him to give instructions. He pointed to my feet again and said, "Dig down and see." "I dug three feet deep below, and was about to report the situation, when I suddenly felt that something was wrong, it felt as if the material inside was harder than the previous stone, so I dug the hole bigger, and at this time Sheng Shiyao had already walked to my side and shone a flashlight into it to investigate.

"Dig up this rock wall." Sheng Shiyao gave an order.

Zhou Tong and the others also came around, and found a sharp stone to help me dig it up together. Soon the hole was dug to a square meter in size, revealing the harder stone inside. It was indeed a different stone, because it was black all over, and it was more delicate to the touch than the stone that had just been dug up, Zhou Tong said curiously: "Brother Yao, this seems to be a magnet." ”

Sheng Shiyao looked at it carefully with a flashlight, and then said: "Dig it out, it is it that changes the magnetic field of this cave." Only by destroying it can the orientation be accurate. By the distance we had traveled, it was about the distance from the mountain to the village, which was their dwelling place and where all their people were buried, and this nest would certainly not be far away. So as long as we set the correct direction, we can rely on Shadow Moon to dig a way out. ”

Listening to his analysis, everyone was excited, and immediately accelerated the process to dig out the huge magnet, and after it was completely excavated, it was found that the stone was more than two meters high, no wonder the magnetism was so strong. I have to thank Shadow Moon again, it is really indestructible, no matter how hard the stone is, it is brittle, I cut the magnet into small pieces, and then Zhou Tong held the magnet and sent it out from the passage in and back.

Soon Sheng Shiyao discerned the correct direction, and we began to dig the cave, the process was hard, but as long as there is hope for everything, no one will want to give up. It may be that there is no end to the road, and after digging two meters into it, it was found that the stone wall was empty behind it, and a push was forced, revealing a regular cave. Sheng Shiyao took the lead, we followed closely, and after walking for less than half an hour, there was a fork in the left and right, Sheng Shiyao only observed it slightly, and then walked to the left.

After 100 meters, we saw the light and the entrance of the cave was in sight. I don't know how to describe that feeling, it's like a person who has lost the light for too long and sees the dawn of hope. If it weren't for Sheng Shiyao leading the way and walking steadily, I think I would definitely be unable to help but run. The entrance to the cave suddenly became smaller, but the distance was closer, and it could be seen that the entrance could be passed by at least one person.

Sheng Shiyao gestured for us to stop, he was the first to drill out of the hole, and two seconds later he was outside and said, "Come out." "We went out one by one, and when I saw the scene in front of me, I couldn't help but marvel that this hole was actually the secret place that Sheng Shiyao and I had discovered in the village before.

He didn't miscalculate the direction or distance, and we arrived here on foot. Liu Yue and the others came for the first time, their faces were surprised, and Zhou Tong sighed: "I really didn't expect that there are still villages here, but why don't you see people." ”

I just wanted to explain, but Liu Yue had already spoken: "No one, don't you see that this is a dead village?" Zhou Tong was stunned, "No one?" The village looks very neat, but the structure of the houses is different from the outside. ”

I smiled secretly, of course my heart was different, this was a house with a number of years, if it hadn't been built with stones, it would have been dilapidated a long time ago. Turning his head, he saw Sheng Shiyao's face dark, and asked, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? "Seeing him look like that now, you know that things are not good, so my instinct is to think badly.

He shook his head slightly, "There's nothing wrong with it, it's just that we're running out of time, let's go." ”

Zhou Tong, who was originally gearing up to explore the way, heard the instruction, and turned back blankly and asked, "Brother Yao, don't you go into this village to take a look?" Liu Yue said angrily: "Are you a pig brain, this is the village that Brother Yao mentioned before, and all the people in it have already died." Liuzi laughed sullenly, Zhou Tong scratched the back of his head, and looked at those ancient buildings again, with a lot of regret in his eyes.
