Chapter 32: The Underground Cave

Ding Qin barely stabilized his figure when he was about halfway down. At this time, his eyes were already pitch black, and the light above them could not be shot down at all.

It was a moment before he landed. Due to the high position of the fall, Ding Qin only felt that his legs were sore.

Fortunately, although the impact was strong, it did not hurt him. However, hearing a few screams around him, Ding Qin could know that some of the people who fell at the same time must have been injured.

When he was about to find out the tinder to ignite the fire, Ding Qin couldn't help but be surprised.

The spiritual power in one's body is flowing outward at an uncontrolled rate! Judging from the current situation, within a few breaths, all the spiritual power reserves in one's body will be exhausted.

For a spiritual cultivator, without a reserve of spiritual power is like a gun without bullets. Although it is said that spiritual power can be recovered through rest and cultivation, after all, it is impossible to have such a time now that the great enemy is present.

"Don't resist, let it go. Just as Ding Qin was trying to find a way to close his meridian exits, the bone soul suddenly reminded him in the sea of knowledge.

"Why?" Ding Qin was puzzled and asked the bone soul.

Bone Soul said, "If I don't feel wrong, this phenomenon of spiritual power outflow is caused by an ancient formation. This formation is a defensive formation that is used to protect certain special locations. The more you resist, the more active the formation becomes, and when your meridians confront each other with the formation, often the meridians are fragile. At this time, the meridians will be injured. ”

Not long after the bone soul finished speaking, several shouts of "ahh After that, there was a humane, "My spiritual power has been sucked away!"

"Everyone, pay attention, don't care about the spiritual power, if you are sucked away, you can suck it away. The Lone Star Cave Master's voice sounded again, and it was clear that she might have sensed the mystery in the cave as well.

"Snort......" As the first flame ignited in the hands of the Lone Star Cave Master, a faint light began to appear in the cave. Compared to the darkness just now, the firelight made the cave a lot more vibrant.

Ding Qin took a look at it by the light of the fire. On the side of the Lone Star Cave Master, everyone had fallen into the cave, and on Feng Lei's side, including Feng Lei and himself, there were thirteen people who had fallen into the cave.

They didn't know exactly how high the hole was. Looking up, there was no light at all.

The Lone Star Cave Master lit the fire in his hand to a small torch, and then distributed it to the people who came with him, and the light in the cave gradually became full.

Only then was Ding Qin able to see the whole picture of the entire cave.

The whole cave is more like a long passage, and they are standing in the middle of the hole. Looking up, the top of the cave is about more than a foot high, but it has been closed, and I don't know when it was sealed.

Walking to the side, he touched the wall of the cave. The material is extremely smooth, and when the fingers touch it, a cool breath comes from the fingertips, giving people an inexplicable sense of quietness.

The Lone Star Cave Master was also more curious about the environment here, so he walked to Ding Qin's side and observed the cave wall here.

In the light of the torch in her hand, the walls of the cave reflected a dark blue light.

"I've never seen this material before. The Lone Star Cave Master's vigilance against Ding Qin seemed to have eased a lot, and he took the initiative to speak.

Ding Qin was about to say that he hadn't seen it either, but he heard the hint of the bone soul in the sea of knowledge. After a moment's thought, he said, "It's not a special material, it's just a special way to use it." Using the best magnetite as the base, after refining at high temperature, a thin layer of sand is sprinkled on the surface, and this state can be formed when the sand melts. ”

Although Ding Qin repeated the words of the bone soul, the admiration for the bone soul in his heart has reached a new level.

From the Nine Heavens Xuantie, to the Chen family and the Sanxiang Soul Scatter on the Five Poison Island, to this special construction method, this old guy really looks like an encyclopedia.

However, compared to Ding Qin's surprise at the bone soul, the Lone Star Cave Master's surprise at Ding Qin was obviously even worse. Through the mask, Ding Qin could see the Lone Star Cave Master's mouth open wide. After a long time, she spoke, "Do you know that, what is your origin?"

Ding Qin smiled and shook his head. He didn't want to make his identity too clear, because that would probably cause him more trouble in the rest of his journey.

Because he is still a fugitive from Kaiyuan City. Zhao Shi's pursuit of himself is impossible to stop in a short period of time. But who knows that there may be a relationship between the people met on the road and Zhao Shi?

"Don't say it. The Lone Star Cave Master sighed lightly and turned to the people behind him, "Let's check, everyone checks, who is injured." We heal first. ”

Ding Qin also walked towards Feng Lei, "Vice General Feng, our people will also check." ”

Soon, the number of wounded had results. Due to the high cultivation level of the Lone Star Cave Master, there were no external injuries when they fell, and only 2 people were slightly injured in their meridians when they resisted the outflow of spiritual power, while Ding Qin's side was the opposite.

Five people suffered contusions to their lower limbs as they fell to the ground, but none suffered damage to their meridians.

"We have medicine for musculoskeletal injuries. The Lone Star Cave Master said and threw two vials to Ding Qin, "Red for external use, white for internal use." If there is no fracture, no strenuous activities will be carried out, and the pain can generally be relieved in half an hour, the swelling can be reduced within a day, and it can be healed within three days. ”

Ding Qin took it, briefly expressed his gratitude, and began to use it for those wounded soldiers. He didn't really know much about medicine himself, but out of a sense of responsibility, he temporarily assumed the role of this doctor.

After the treatment was completed, the bone soul said in the sea of knowledge, "Tell them, say that the poison that Chen used just now, you know the solution." ”

If it weren't for the bone soul saying this, maybe Ding Qin would have forgotten about the poisonous gas just now. Because after the poisonous mist dissipated, including himself, he did inhale a lot. But now, none of these people showed symptoms of poisoning.

"Are you sure?" Ding Qin asked the bone soul.

There was no hesitation in the Bone Soul's tone, "Of course I'm sure." Chen Zhi used Bone Erosion, a poison that works in the body after inhalation, but it does not come out. ”

Ding Qin hadn't heard of the poison that wouldn't come out, "So what is the function of this poison?"

The bone soul smiled, "This poison is interesting." It specializes in breaking down human bones, and the longer it takes, the more the bones are broken down, so the more fragile they become. Even in the end, the bones are not enough to support the weight of the muscles, and after a little movement, there will be multiple fractures on the body. ”

"And this poison? It's really weird. Ding Qin muttered, "This is also the poison on the Five Poison Island?"

Bone Soul said, "Sort of." This poison first appeared on the Five Poison Island, but it was not an invention on the Five Poison Island, and no one knew about it. However, this poison once easily killed an eldest son of the Chen family on the Five Poison Island. ”

Ding Qin thought for a moment, "Then how can this poison be cured, and how can I convince them to listen to me?"

Bone Soul said, "In this environment now, it is more troublesome to solve. There is no spiritual power, and there are no good medicinal materials, so I can't help it. However, after we get out, as soon as our spiritual power recovers, I can solve it using a formation. ”

Ding Qin smiled bitterly and didn't pay attention to his bones and souls. The Lone Star Cave Master was very sensitive to the change in Ding Qin's expression and asked Ding Qin, "What's wrong?"

Ding Qin said, "It's nothing. The poison that Chen Zhi used on us just now is called Eroding Bone Powder, and after poisoning, the bone in the body will be gradually destroyed. But in this environment, we don't have spiritual power, and it is too difficult to detoxify. ”

"You actually know about the Bone Erosion Scatter?" the Lone Star Cave Master's tone was a little surprised, "Chen Zhi said, that is their family's unique antidote. ”

A unique antidote? Referring to the poison killing of the bone soul just now, Ding Qin couldn't help but think of the internal disputes in the family.

Soon, Ding Qin came back to his senses, "Well, I know. Fortunately, it is slow to work and has limited effect on bone mass in the short term. ”

He looked around again, "Looks like we should find an exit first." ”

The Lone Star Cave Master did not refute. She raised the torch in her hand, stared at the flame for a moment, and said, "The fire is somewhat offset. This shows that there is still air circulation in the cave. If there is air circulation, it means that there should be an outlet. We should look for it. ”

Ding Qin nodded and glanced at Feng Lei. Feng Lei immediately ordered the soldiers, "Get up, put the wounded on your back, and let's see if we can get out." ”

The Lone Star Cave Master exhaled slowly and said, "Ah San." You are responsible for the pioneer pathfinder, the distance from us must not be less than ten meters, and if there is an unexpected situation, you must immediately give us a signal. ”

Ah San answered, and immediately stepped forward with the torch, keeping a distance of more than ten meters from the team.

"Xiao Feng, you are responsible for the broken back, including Ding Qin behind them. Again, it should not be lower than 10 meters. When there is a situation, send a signal in time. ”

Xiao Feng, like Ah San, quickly took his place according to the instructions of the Lone Star Cave Master.

"The rest of the people are divided into three groups. The middle group walked with me, and the other two groups followed me on the left and right wings. The Lone Star Cave Master's instructions were very clear, and Gavon Lei also showed an incredulous expression.

He hesitated for a moment, and finally asked, "May I ask the cave master, who was a soldier before?"

"Soldier?" the Lone Star Cave Master was visibly surprised by this question. Soon, she shook her head, "No. I was born in Lone Star Cave since I was a child, and I have no intersection with the military at all. ”

"That's weird. Feng Lei said, "It's not a soldier, but your arrangements are all in accordance with the tactics of soldiers." ”

"It's not strange. We are in the Lone Star Cave, and everyone has to start learning these things when they reach adulthood. The content handed down by our ancestors cannot be left unlearned. ”

The more she said that this was a natural learning, the heavier Feng Lei's doubts became, and she couldn't help but look at Ding Qin. Ding Qin was also a little puzzled, but he changed the topic and asked the Lone Star Cave Master, "Cave Master, I don't even know, what kind of cave is your Lone Star Cave?"
