"What are you doing?" Bai Ke asked urgently.

"Why are you so nervous, I won't kill him." Lu Yan's impatient voice came, followed by Kong Yan's weak voice, "I'm fine." ”

Xiang Qingwu heard the synchronized footsteps of the two, and guessed that it should be Lu Yan who helped Kong Yan up.

"Tell me, where is the exit?" Lu Yan asked a little anxiously, presumably a little impatient, after all, he has been walking in such a claustrophobic space, and he will inevitably be impetuous.

Kong Yan coughed violently a few more times, and said slowly, "Now we can't see the situation around us clearly, we can only rely on you." ”

Lu Yan snorted twice and said, "I see, you took a fancy to my eyes from the beginning, right?" ”

Kong Yan smiled, noncommittal, and only continued, "Have you seen anything strange around you, or something strange?" ”

Lu Yan looked around, shook his head and said, "I didn't see anything, but I knew that about twenty meters in front of us was a dead end, which meant that we had no other way out."

When Xiang Qingwu heard this, he stepped forward and said, "No, there is still a road over there." ”

Lu Yan asked unconvinced, "Why, don't believe me?" Are your eyes better or mine? ”

Xiang Qingwu chuckled, "I can't see it, but I can hear it." ”

"And what did you hear?"

Xiang Qingwu listened carefully for a while, and said affirmatively, "The sound of the wind, and the sound of running water." ”

Lu Yan disagreed, "Okay, even if there is wind and water over there, what about it?" Could it be that we can still pass through the wall, or that you can punch through the stone wall? ”

Kong Yan followed the voice and looked in the direction of Xiang Qingwu, and asked seriously, "What does Miss Xiang think?" ”

Xiang Qingwu stepped forward, thought for a while, nodded and said, "It should be possible." ”

"What? I'm kidding, are you serious? Lu Yan couldn't cry or laugh, thinking that these two people were not on the same channel as him, "I said do you know, it's a stone wall, not a wooden door, you think you are King Kong?" ”

Xiang Qingwu turned his head and frowned, "Who is King Kong?" ”

Lu Yan stroked his forehead, looking like he was loveless, so he said helplessly, "Forget it, I can't tell you clearly, young lady, come on, come on, don't you want to break through the stone wall, come with me." ”

Xiang Qingwu felt that his arm was being pulled by someone, it should be Lu Yan, and then he heard Lu Yan babbling, "Come here, I'll let you touch it to see how hard this place is, if you can break it with one punch, I won't call you young sister in the future, can I call you dad or not?" ”

Bai Ke walked in the middle with Xu Lin on his back, he couldn't help but laugh out loud when he heard Lu Yan's words, this laugh didn't hold Xu Lin, and he fell directly to the ground.

"Damn, what are you laughing at, what's so funny?" Lu Yan said angrily, he didn't understand what was ridiculous about what he said.

Bai Ke covered his mouth and forced a smile, waved his hand and said, "No, I didn't laugh, really." ”

"Can I not see if you are smiling or not, sick!" Lu Yan turned around angrily and left, remembering Bai Ke in his heart.

Kong Yan listened to the bickering between the two, smiled helplessly, and groped forward.

Xiang Qingwu raised her eyebrows, she carefully recalled what Lu Yan had just said, and suddenly something flashed in her mind, she suddenly felt that her cheeks were hot, and a wave of shame welled up in her heart, and she immediately shook off Lu Yan's arm quietly, changed the topic and asked, "How long is it?" ”

Lu Yan is only eighteen or nineteen years old, although it is said that today's children are precocious, but Lu Yan has been working hard for a bite of food since he was a child, how can he still have the heart to think about those men and women, he scratched the yellow hair on his head, pointed to the front and said, "Oh, it's here, you touch it." ”

Bai Ke's smile that he tried to hold back couldn't help but overflow again.

Lu Yan turned his head and glared at Bai Ke viciously, although he didn't understand the reason for his laughter, he always felt that it was not a good thing!

Kong Yan coughed lightly to hide the corners of his mouth that rose wildly, "How is Xulin?" ”

Only then did Bai Ke remember that Xu Lin was still thrown on the ground by himself, and hurriedly groped for Xu Lin to carry it again.

Xiang Qingwu was concentrating on tapping on the stone wall in front of him at the moment, and there was a hollow sound from inside the wall, which meant that the stone wall was hollow, but even so, it was not easy to get over.

"How? Can't you? Lu Yan raised his chin with an expression of "I already knew it was like this".

Kong Yan groped his way over, he held his chest with dull pain, gasped and asked, "How is it?" ”

Xiang Qingwu took two steps back, shook his head and said, "This stone wall is stronger than I imagined, if you want to break it, I'm afraid it won't be done overnight." ”

Kong Yan frowned, lowered his head and pondered, "Could it be that I guessed wrong?" But no, this is where they last stayed, and there is no reason for them to waste their remaining manpower and material resources in a hopeless place, there must be something that I haven't thought of yet. ”

Lu Yan leaned against the stone wall, shaking his legs and said impatiently, "I said that Kong is sick, but I came to this place because I believed you, if you play tricks on me, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people." ”

Hearing the three words "sick seedling", Bai Ke immediately became angry, "If you don't want to come, no one will force you, Kong Yan is a human being, not a god, you don't have a mouth there, you have the ability to come!" ”

"You're sick, if I can find a way, I'm still following you, I'll have slipped away alone, I see you've been picking things since just now, do you want to deliberately get along with me?" Lu Yan was not easy to mess with, he immediately exploded, relying on his ability to see in the dark, he kicked Bai Ke's stomach without saying a word.

Bai Ke screamed in pain, and suddenly covered his stomach and became angry, "You kid dare to beat me!" ”

"I'm going to hit you, what's the matter? If you have the ability, you can beat me too! Lu Yan fled to the side quickly, looking at Bai Ke who was waving his fists indiscriminately, and felt very funny, as if he was watching a clown jumping beam.

Kong Yan stroked his forehead helplessly, took a step forward and just kicked something on his foot, he lowered his head and touched it a few times, touched a smooth head, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, he could only fight to help the person up, "Miss Xiang, can you hear anything on the other side except for the sound of wind and water?" ”

Xiang Qingwu sat cross-legged in front of the stone wall, perhaps because she had no skin, so she was particularly sensitive to changes in the temperature and humidity of the air, she raised her eyes to look at Kong Yan's position when she heard this, "There is also a sound of fine chains." ”

"The sound of chains?" Kong Yan lowered his head and pondered, but before he could come up with a reason, he was interrupted by Xiang Qingwu.

"Why do you know so much?" Xiang Qingwu looked at him with burning eyes.

Kong Yan laughed, "Guess." As he spoke, he helped Xu Lin to sit down cross-legged, perhaps because of where this action was involved, he covered his mouth and coughed heavily, and said with a wry smile, "Miss Xiang will suspect that this is normal, I won't mind." ”

The corners of Xiang Qingwu's mouth twitched, and he sneered, "Don't be sentimental, you are just using each other to me." ”

Kong Yan still had a light smile on his face, he calmed his breath and said slowly, "Presumably Miss Xiang also saw the handwriting left by her predecessors, I also accidentally saw the manual at the beginning, but unfortunately it was later taken away by Ding Xiaoyun, from that manual, I guess that the previous group of people should have found an exit to leave the Seven Islands, but most of them have died in the process of fighting for the fish talisman." At first, they should have suspected that the exit was on the stone wall by the river, so they did not hesitate to use a lot of manpower and material resources to build the plank road, but why did the plank road end after only half of the plank road was built? Judging from the half of the plank road, the project was not hasty when it was stopped. So I guess they must have found a better way to leave, so they left half of the fortifications abandoned. In the end, it was because Ding Xiuyun's people had found a large number of human bones in this tunnel, and judging from the way the bones died, they should have been killed by random arrows from behind, and the direction of the deceased was this side. ”

After saying too many words at one time, Kong Yan's breath became weaker, and his eyes began to be a little trance-like, and the whole person was like a dying old man.

Xiang Qingwu was puzzled and asked, "Since Ding Xiuyun already knows that this is the exit from the Seven Islands, why doesn't she directly let people chisel open the stone wall, even if it doesn't work for one day, she will definitely be able to chisel through it after a hundred days and thousands of days, why do she still cling to the fish talisman?" What exactly is the fish charm used for? And what is the guide? ”

Kong Yan shook his head, "I don't know, the strange thing is that the person who wrote the manual doesn't seem to have any doubts about the existence of the fish talisman, as if he already knows that there is a door in front of him, and all he has to do is to get the key to open the door, so from beginning to end, the source of the fish talisman is all mentioned in one stroke, and as for the guide, it has never been mentioned." ”

"That's strange, if Ding Xiaoyun only knew so many things because of the manual left by Fang Yuan, then how did Qi Shuhang know?" Xiang Qingwu first learned the word guide from Qi Shuhang's mouth.

Kong Yan paused for a moment and said, "Does Miss Xiang remember the inscription on the stone tablet?" ”

Xiang Qingwu recalled for a moment and muttered, "Seven-day sacrifice...... The only way to lead... i.e. in the form of a unicorn...... Annihilation"

Kong Yan nodded, "Due to the erosion of the years, many words in the inscription have been completely blurred, maybe the predecessors relied on the original inscription to get the information of leaving the Seven Islands, so I have always felt that every word on this inscription has its specific meaning." For example, the 'Seven Days Festival' is likely to refer to the flood that occurs on the seventh day after the contractor arrives on Shichiejima, and countless contractors will die on the seventh day, for example, the 'Lu Yin' is likely to be the guide who can guide us out of this place and reach the other side, and there is the 'unicorn body', cough cough cough...... Perhaps only when we unravel the meaning of the words on the stone tablet can we truly find the secret of Shiiju Island and get the ultimate salvation. ”

There was scolding and scolding, beating and fighting, the two finally died down, and they each sat in one place to rest exhausted, Lu Yan was impatient to listen to those long speeches, covering the wounds of his mouth, and asked dissatisfiedly, "I said that you have been muttering and muttering for so long, have you thought of a way to get out?" ”

"Eh, what about the little monk? Why are people gone? Bai Ke exclaimed, his hands touched the ground for a long time and he didn't find Xu Lin, and he suddenly became anxious.

Lu Yan glanced at Xu Lin beside Kong Yan, and deliberately teased Bai Ke, "Don't look for it, the person is gone." ”

Bai Ke's face suddenly turned pale, "How is it possible, there is no one else here, I-"

"Here." Kong Yan said softly.

Bai Ke breathed a sigh of relief and waved his fist in the direction of Lu Yan to demonstrate.

Lu Yan sneered, pulled the wound at the corner of his mouth, and immediately the anger in his eyes increased again.
