Chapter 174: Ten Holes
Snowflakes covered us like a torrential rain, but I and the Wheel King had our own ways to protect ourselves, so I only felt the biting cold, which didn't affect me much.
We stood on the endless snow, and here was the Long White Mountain.
The road leading to the front is followed by a rugged mountain peak, not to mention sparsely populated, you can't even feel the slightest anger, let alone find the legendary man?
After all, in this environment, it is very difficult for any creature to survive, and I feel a little uneasy in my heart, could it be that the old guy has died here?
As one of the two most powerful people in the Heavenly Master Cave, naturally he wouldn't die so easily, right?
I comforted myself and walked with the Wheel towards the mountain in front of me.
"Can you feel his presence?" I asked casually.
As expected, the Wheel King shook his head and said, "The existence of this Long White Mountain is too mysterious, we need to take it step by step"
"There shouldn't be much time left outside," I nodded.
If we can't find Liu Daoyang's brother in the shortest possible time, then it will be a foregone conclusion that the lives of the world will be ruined
"It's Haldan, why did you agree to him regardless of the rules?"
We quickly crossed a hill, still not finding anything, so I asked.
"This is also a last resort, I will explain it to the Yin Si Temple"
The Wheel King didn't want to mention this, and said lightly.
I nodded in understanding, and an abyss suddenly appeared in my sight.
The abyss was just between two mountains, and there was nothing to be seen below, and it almost made us fall on our heads because of the snow.
"Go down or go over?" I asked the Wheel King for his opinion and asked.
"Go down and see, it's better to kill by mistake than to let go"
The Wheel King said, and then floated down into thin air.
I smiled and nodded, just as I had thought, and then used the dust to move a little bit down the abyss.
There was a cold wind swishing from the soles of our feet, and we were able to see the environment in the abyss after we landed smoothly.
The stone walls on both sides are complete, with five holes respectively, and the cold wind blows out from here, and it is impossible to see the inside, and it seems to lead to the inner part of the snow-capped mountain.
"One side?" I asked.
With his permission, I walked to the first hole on the left.
There were exactly ten holes, five of us, and perhaps unknown dangers awaited us, but time was pressed and we had to split up.
When I walked to the first hole, I didn't find anything inside, and I could see a flowing underground river all the way down, and there was no road to go after that.
I didn't go down to look at it, but went into the second hole, and found that it was the same as the first, as if someone had dug a hole to check the direction of the underground river.
I sighed and continued to the third opening, trying to find something different from the previous two.
Sure enough, in this third mouth, there are two more openings, and there are two yellow talismans posted on the top of the cave outside the mouth, and I recognized it at a glance as the "Demon Sealing Talisman" recorded in the "Five Reforms and Nine Days and Half a Grain of Doumi Treasure", and my heart suddenly became excited.
Since this kind of thing has appeared here, it must indicate that the younger brother of the head of the Heavenly Master Cave has appeared here, and everything is starting to have a clue again.
I approached the small hole on the left, and found the slightest animal roar coming from inside, which made me pause, and instead of going inside, I retreated and walked to another hole.
Moving deeper, after a while, the roar of animals was still heard, and it seemed that there was indeed something extraordinary inside.
Otherwise, why would that person be allowed to use such a high-level demon sealing talisman?
The fourth cave is hollow, and the only thing notable is that there is a human skull inside.
The skull was carved with jerky symbols, and I didn't have anything like that in my head, so out of curiosity, I reached out and grabbed it.
As soon as one hand touched it, the hollow eye socket of the skull suddenly glowed green, shooting out a crimson light and projecting it onto the wall.
I was startled, and then I looked, only to see that on the projected picture, I clearly saw an old man in a Taoist robe running in this snowy mountain, his eyes were very clear, but he was very fast, and he looked back from time to time during the run.
This guy's face is not clear, but I can realize that he may be the so-called brother of the head of the Heavenly Master Cave, but looking at his appearance, it seems that he is being chased?
The projection seemed to understand what I meant, and as soon as the camera turned, I saw dozens of Taoist priests wearing Heavenly Master Cave robes rushing out, and there were still these familiar faces inside.
One is the head of the Heavenly Master Cave, the other is the deputy head of the Heavenly Master Cave, and Xu Changtian's immature appearance is obviously a picture from a long time ago.
If that is the case, that guy has been here for an unknown number of years, could it be that he has become a corpse?
In short, this is still a useful piece of information, if you want to see people alive or die, you have come to this point, and giving up is the most unwise choice.
After the skull was projected, the red light vanished, and then the skull cracked a trail and became useless.
There was only one last opening left, so I walked out slowly, calmed down, and stepped inside.
Hopefully there won't be any bad news for me, and the best thing is that I see an old man lying there sleeping, and that would be better.
Entering the cave, the walls seemed to be polished, with some crooked murals carved into them, and I could probably make out that there were some people painted on them, and strange symbols were carved into the ground.
Walking inside, the walls were full of symbols that I couldn't read, and it looked very jerky, and there was nothing else that attracted me to find them.
For at the end of this cave is also where the underground river flows.
Could it be that the old man has some special habit of digging water in the ground?
I was stunned, maybe he was looking for something?
Yes, this long white mountain has been a long time, and the old man must have fled here for other purposes, not to mention that the head and deputy head of the Heavenly Master Cave had chased him, but he didn't tell us at that time, why is this?
If everyone wants to hide a secret, then asking about it is the wrong decision, because you will feel the powerlessness of the stone sinking into the sea.
I walked out of the cave and stood outside the cave where the Wheel King had entered, waiting for him to come out and make a decision, and to ask him if he had found anything good.
But I stood outside for a long time, and I didn't hear any news from the Wheel King, and I realized that maybe something was starting to go wrong.
