Chapter 67: The Path of the Skeleton (2)

Last time, the three of us climbed into the pile of skulls, only to find that the tunnel ahead was sealed with cement. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

Tie Ying saw it and said: "This cement wall looks like it was temporarily watered urgently, it seems to be to block something, let's go down and have a look." ”

The three of us slowly climbed down from the pile of skulls and came to the concrete wall. Sure enough, Tie Ying was right, the construction of the entire cement wall looked very rough, and we saw that many skeletons were also poured with cement, and the whole body was wrapped in the cement wall.

Kuanzi took the shovel and slapped it on the cement wall a few times, and the shovel was knocked by him with a bang, but the cement wall did not move.

Kuanzi saw it and said: "Come on, I see that the thickness of this cement wall is at least five or six meters." And I guess it's getting harder the further you go inside, so let's stop being busy and turn around and go back. With the little explosives we have left, it's impossible to blow it up. ”

Hiroko has always been the demolition expert in our team, and now that he has said so, it seems that it is really out of play.

Tie Ying was unwilling to give up and asked, "What if we blow it up from the side." ”

Kuanzi tried to knock twice on the wall of the tunnel with a shovel, only to hear the "ding" sound twice, Kuanzi shook his head and said, "The stones here are fucking harder than cement." The little explosives we brought with us are enough to blow up a small hole to play with. ”

In desperation, the three of us had to turn around and climb back to the skull pile, ready to go back the way we came.

As we climbed to the top of the skull pile, we suddenly heard several knocks overhead.

It was a faint voice, but it was heard by all three of us.

In this strange tunnel, this sound is heard for no reason, and it sounds very scary.

I said, "This can't fucking be the legendary ghost knocking on the door?" ”

I glanced up at Aoi behind Tie Ying, only to see that she had fallen asleep floating in the air at some point. She had a red thread tied to her, and the other end of the red thread was firmly tied to the backpack behind Tie Ying, so that as soon as Tie Ying left, she also moved.

I hurriedly walked over and reached out to wake up Aoi.

Xiao Kui opened her eyes slowly and faintly, and said, "Master, what's the matter!" ”

I said, "Don't sleep, help us hear where this sound is coming from!" ”

At this moment, there was another sound of "bang, bang, bang" above our heads.

I asked Aoi, "Did you hear that?" ”

Xiao Aoi nodded and said, "Heard?" Bang, bang, bang. ”

I said, "Can you see where this sound is coming from?" ”

Aoi said, "I'll give it a try." As she spoke, she pinched a finger in her hand, closed her eyes, and after a while she said, "Oh, we have a room above our heads, and it's so dark in this room。。。。。。 There was a woman in the corner。。。。。。 This woman looks so scary。。。。。。 Hmph, I don't want to look any further. She opened her eyes as she spoke.

I asked, "What! What do you see? ”

"There was a very dark room above our heads, and there was a very ugly woman locked in it, and the sound was made by her constantly tapping the ground with a stone. ”

I listened and said, "Can you go up and ask who she is?" ”

Xiao Kui listened and said: "Xiao Kui's cultivation is limited, and now only three people can see my appearance, hear my voice, and communicate with me. No one else can see me, they can't hear me. ”

Hiroko and I couldn't help but go crazy when we heard this.

At this time, I heard the knocking sound again.

Tie Ying listened carefully and said, "This is Morse code!" As she spoke, she grabbed a white bone and recorded it on the mountain wall at the top of the tunnel.

The sound of this knocking was intermittent, and it took almost half an hour for Tie Ying to crack the Morse code. I only heard her read: "I'm Xiumei, come back quickly!" ”

When Kuanzi and I heard this, we couldn't help but be stunned. We entered the Nine Palaces Fortress this time to cooperate with the black-clothed messenger to rescue Aunt Mei. I didn't expect to find her by mistake this time.

Tie Ying immediately picked up the shovel and slapped the cave wall above his head, making a sound of "clang" of different lengths.

Soon, the sound coming from overhead became noticeably quicker. I can imagine the excitement and excitement in Aunt Mei's heart when I heard my Morse signal respond.

To be honest, I don't understand this thing either. So it can't help. While Tie Ying and Aunt Mei were communicating in Morse code, I sat on the pile of skulls, leaned against the wall and closed my eyes. To be honest, I haven't been able to get a good rest since I entered the fortress, which makes me feel physically and mentally exhausted. As soon as I leaned my head against the wall, I quickly fell asleep.

I don't know how long I slept, but I was shaken awake.

When I opened my eyes, I saw Tie Ying sitting in front of me.

When she saw that I was awake, she smiled, took out a white pill from her bag, handed it to me and said, "Eat it, our Tie family's ancestral secret recipe is very useful for anti-fatigue." ”

I took the pill and swallowed it in one gulp, only to feel that my mouth and tongue were full of relish, and a cool feeling rushed to my brain, and I instantly became a lot more sober.

At this time, I only heard Kuanzi say: "Iron probe, what about mine!" ”

Tie Ying smiled and handed a pill to Kuanzi as well.

Kuanzi opened her big mouth, swallowed it instantly, and said, "This smell is really refreshing." ”

Tie Ying ate one himself.

Kuanzi said: "Iron probe, there is such a good thing, why don't you take it out earlier." ”

Tie Ying said: "I forgot to bring it before, although I remembered it this time, but I prepared too hastily and only brought a little." You can't eat too much of this stuff, otherwise it will cause harm to the body. ”

At this time, I only heard Kuanzi say: "The explosives are all loaded, let's withdraw quickly." ”

Immediately, the three of us quickly retreated to a safe distance. I saw Kuanzi press the detonator, and there was a "boom" sound, and the tunnel was suddenly surrounded by smoke and dust from the explosion.

When the smoke cleared, we looked ahead and were dumbfounded, only to see that the top of the tunnel had only been blown off by us and a few rocks had fallen off.

In order to blow up the top of the tunnel this time, we used all but a few pieces of explosives for emergency use. I didn't expect the rock formation at the top of this tunnel to be so hard, and it couldn't be blown through with so much explosives.

Kuanzi was unwilling to see it, and was about to climb up the pile of skeletons to check.

Tie Ying grabbed him and said, "Wait, what's sparking on that pile of skeletons?" ”

Hiroko and I listened and took a closer look.

It turned out that part of the skull pile had been blown up by explosives. We thought that this skull pile was full of skeletons, but we didn't expect that there was something else under this skull pile.

We shone the flashlight to the place Tie Ying was pointing, and saw that it was a green rectangular wooden box with a few large black letters written on the box. At this moment, the wooden box was blown up by the explosion just now, and it was burning non-stop.

Kuanzi only glanced at the wooden box and shouted, "It's not good, quickly withdraw." The pile under the skeleton was full of military explosives. ”

In fact, there is no need to shout widely, when the bright light of the flashlight hits the wooden box, Tie Ying took my hand and turned his head and ran.

As soon as the three of us ran out of more than ten meters, we only saw a sudden light behind us, and then we heard a "boom", and at this moment we only felt that the ground was shaking.

In an instant, the three of us were knocked to the ground by the blast wave of the explosion.

I looked back and saw countless skeleton boulders being swept into the air by the blast wave of the explosion, smashing at the three of us.

I thought to myself, this time the three of us are really going to explain this.

At that moment, I only felt a light in my eyes, and suddenly, the three of us were surrounded by a transparent ball. The three of us were in the middle of this ball, and we saw that those boulders, after smashing the ball, were directly bounced off by the ball.

I turned my head to see Aoi floating in the air, looking at the three of us with a grin.

It turned out that at the critical moment, she conjured this ball to protect the three of us.

This time, the lives of the three of us can be said to have been saved by her.

Kuanzi said: "Little girl, you have made a great contribution this time. After we go out, Uncle will invite you to a big dinner, buy you beautiful clothes, fun toys, whatever you want, Uncle will buy you anything. ”

Xiao Kui smiled and said, "Okay! Don't lie to me! ”

Tie Ying and I looked at each other and said to Xiao Kui, "Thank you!" ”

Xiaokui said: "No, it's what I should do to protect my master." ”

I can't get enough of what is good in my heart. Ya has Xiaokui, no matter what swords, mountains and fires, bullets and rain in the future, brother doesn't have to be afraid.

Xiao Kui seemed to read my thoughts, and she said, "Master, I can't come out to save you every time." ”

I only heard her continue: "Cultivators, since they want to jump out of the Five Elements and Three Realms, they will be free from the suffering of the cycle of life and death. You shouldn't use magic to affect everything in the world, as the so-called people have their own lives, and life and death are something that everyone can't escape. Some people are just born and may die before they can see the world at a glance. Some people live a long life. This is all due to the different karma of each person in the previous life, and God has arranged it. We shouldn't change it at will. These are all things that you taught me before, master. ”

I listened and said, "When have I ever said such a thing!" ”

Xiao Aoi thought for a while and said, "About a thousand years ago! In fact, as long as the master cultivates with me, he will be able to protect himself well in the future. ”

When I heard her mention monasticism, my head hurt again.

After a while, the smoke from the explosion cleared, and I saw a huge hole being blown out of the top of the tunnel.

Above the entrance to the cave, there seemed to be a man waving to us.
