Chapter 103: There is no cave
Suddenly, Qin Shan shuddered violently: "Could it be that this is still an illusion?"
Except for the town, everything outside is no different from what I saw in the illusion before, the same mountains, the same grass and trees, the same blue sky and white clouds.
The only difference is that a variety of voices are heard.
But if there are so many birds and beasts around, why can't there be a single bird in the sky? and the town should have been occupied by wild beasts after being uninhabited for so long.
But the whole town is quiet and clean on the road leading to the outside.
As soon as Qin Shan thought of this, all the sounds disappeared in an instant, and the surroundings became a dead silence, as if everything was just an illusion just now, which made his scalp tingle for a while.
If coming out of the illusion is still an illusion, it will be terrible.
"Shallow, take a look at the other side of the mountain. ”
Qin Shan said his concerns, watched Qianqian turn into red light and left, and also jumped to the ground and walked towards the tallest house in the town.
The house looked like a temple, and if there was any clue, it would be there.
"Dazun Temple?"
Qin Shan looked at the plaque on the lintel and frowned, no matter how he recalled, he couldn't remember that there was a record of "Dazun" in the ancient books and historical legends he had seen.
The plaques and houses are intact, indistinguishable from the other houses in the town, as if they have not been eroded by the passage of time.
Raise your feet and step into the courtyard, inside is the paved ground with a turning head, a stone table and a stone bench in one corner, and a rectangular stone incense burner in the middle of the courtyard.
Walking into the temple, on the altar is a stone statue more than three meters high, with big ears, clear facial features, and momentum.
In addition, there is a long table for placing sacrifices, three bowing futons, nothing else, the four walls are also empty, there are no historical allusions, no inscriptions, no accounts related to this "great honor".
Qin Shan didn't give up, and after beating a round everywhere, he couldn't find anything abnormal.
Sighing, he went out and searched for another round of other mansions, but still found no record related to this town.
The red shadow flashed, fell to his shoulder, and said in a solemn tone: "As you expected, this place is really still an illusion, no matter how I fly, the distance from the mountain has not changed at all, and I haven't seen any animals." ”
Qin Shan was not surprised, he just nodded with a calm face.
In the next two hours, Qin Shan ran all over the town, including every shop on the street, looking for a way to leave, and he also went in and out everywhere, not letting go of any clues.
The more I look for them, the more discouraged I become, everything is so normal that it can't be normal anymore, and I can't even find the various clues that were regular in the previous illusion.
It's real, as real as the outside world.
Finally, Qin Shan's gaze turned back to the Great Venerable Temple again.
Looking at the statue on the altar, Qin Shan took a deep breath, jumped on the platform, twisted left and right, but did not move at all, as if he had taken root on the platform.
Pushing, pulling, and turning, there was no movement, jumping on the shoulder of the stone statue, poking and touching the eyes, nose and ears for a while, but there was still no movement, and he couldn't help but take out the axe in annoyance, and slashed the axe on the neck of the stone statue.
"Bang~"
Sparks flew and only a thumb-sized mark was made.
"What stone, so hard?"
Qin Shan looked at the axe, this was a magic weapon left by Daoguang Zhenren, ordinary stones were broken casually, and this stone statue was only split so little.
"Since you're trapped here, you're the only thing in human form, so let's break it first. ”
Qin Shan was crazy, and he slashed down one by one, and the sound was endless.
Qianqian had never seen Qin Shan like this, he fell on his shoulder, chirping his little head and rubbing his cheek: "You calm down......"
"How do I calm down?"
Qin Shan stopped his movements and shouted: "We've been in here for so long, there are only one illusion after another, we can't get out, we're going to die here, we'll never see our parents again, and we'll never see the Crane King again......"
With a roar, he raised his axe again and slashed down.
"Bang ......"
After a series of hundreds of axes, the stone statue was finally overwhelmed, and the head fell to the ground, and a small hole appeared on the front of the neck, like a throat pipe.
Splitting off the head of the stone statue, Qin Shan vented most of his anger, jumped off the desk below, and looked at the head of the stone statue on the ground in a daze.
Shallowly landed on the broken neck of the stone statue, and looked at the small hole again: "Qin Mountain, it seems to be empty inside." ”
"Empty?"
Qin Shan walked back to the stone statue and struck it heavily on its belly.
"Knock ......"
There is an echo inside the stone statue, and it does sound hollow.
Qin Shan's eyes lit up, and he raised his axe and slashed again.
Hundreds of axes were slashed out, the stone statue shattered, and a hole less than a meter large appeared in front of him.
There are stairs under the entrance of the cave, which are so dark that you can't see the bottom, and you don't know how deep it extends.
, took out a strong flashlight and shone it down, only to see that it was a spiral staircase, which kept rotating downward, as if there was no end.
"Shallow, let's go down. ”
Qin Shan sighed, this is the only clue, if there is no exit below, it is really possible to be trapped here forever.
Going all the way, Qin Shan didn't dare to go too fast, irradiated everywhere to prevent accidents, calculated the number of steps and looked at the watch to calculate the time.
It was even more dead and silent here, and even his own heartbeat could be heard, and he walked nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine steps, and finally a door appeared in front of him.
The door is a stone door, with no pattern and no logo, just a stone of the same material as the stone statue.
"This should be an exit, right?" Qin Shan didn't rush to study the stone gate, but took a look around.
It's small, with stone walls other than doors and stairs, and nothing unusual is visible.
I put my ear to the door and listened for a while, but I couldn't hear anything.
Taking a deep breath, Qin Shan's luck was really yuan, and he pushed towards the stone gate hard.
There was a rumbling sound, and the stone door slid open to the side, and a curtain of light appeared in front of him.
The light curtain has no temperature, is not dazzling, and does not feel dangerous.
Putting away the flashlight and taking the axe in his hand, Qin Shan turned his face and rubbed it shallowly, and walked towards the light curtain.
One step out, Qin Shan and Qianqian felt bursts of rich aura constantly washing them over, just taking a deep breath, Dantian Zhenyuan rolled non-stop, a light spirit rushed straight to his mind, and the whole person was a little fluttering.
"Is it finally out?"
Qin Shan turned his head to look at it, and was stunned to find that there was nothing behind him, no light curtain, no stone gate, no stairs, and there was an empty space behind him.
Just like when they came in from below the Extreme Sky Peak.
This is a stone chamber of about twenty or thirty square meters, the four walls are empty, and only there is a bead with a diameter of one inch under the foot.
The beads were yellowish-white, with no reflection, if it weren't for the fact that it was the only thing in the entire cave, Qin Shan and Qianqian might not have noticed it.
As soon as he bent down and picked up the beads, Qin Shan's face was full of strangeness.
"What's wrong?" asked shallow and confused.
"I feel connected to this bead. ”
Qin Shan was puzzled and took the beads in front of him, looking left and right to see nothing unusual, but the feeling of being closely connected to the beads in his heart was still clear.
Shallow tilted his head and thought for a moment, and said, "You use your divine sense to probe." ”
Qin Shan nodded, released his divine sense and leaned towards the beads, his face was even more strange, and his eyes were full of shock: "This ...... This is where we were just now. ”
There is a huge space in the beads, a big mountain, two hills, a plain in front, and a small town is located not far from the foot of the mountain.
Qin Shan was very familiar with this town, and it was exactly what had just driven him crazy.
Such a small bead actually sealed such a huge space, and trapped himself and Qianqian for so long. If he hadn't smashed the only humanoid stone statue by mistake, he would have been trapped inside forever with Shallow Asa.
And now this bead seems to have become his own, and the moment his divine sense penetrates, he already knows how to use it.
"Developed ......"
Qin Shan's face blossomed with joy, and the previous anger had turned into joy.
With this bead, no matter how many alien beasts and spirit birds can be carried with you, even with a million troops.
