Chapter 228: There is no cave

That feeling, very unreal.

Yes, after all kinds of hardships and dangers, I finally set foot on the twin mountains.

And in fact, there is nothing abnormal about these two mountains, they are ordinary, and there is no trace of the immortal mountain blessed land in the book, but it can be clearly seen that the faces of the group of people next to them are obviously excited, Lei Zi, Ma Tianshun, since they hit the mountain, their eyes have revealed joy that cannot be concealed, and even the corners of Shao Yu's mouth at this time have a slight smile.

Probably he just thought that he had won, this fox immortal treasure is really like a spell, for hundreds of years, how many people have lost their lives or rewritten their lives for this?

I'm not the first, but I want to be the last.

The most difficult obstacles have long passed, and the road up the mountain, basically unimpeded, according to the clues in the mantra of the helper, this fox fairy treasure should be between the two mountains, and we go up to the halfway up the mountain, then according to the words of the sideways, this double mountain is one, far away, like an English letter 'm', just like this, about an hour or so, we have crossed a mountain, and at this time the sky has not yet darkened, but there is no road in front of us.

Shao Yu turned his head and asked An if he could see anything, and he didn't know if Dao An was lying on purpose, but after Dao An looked at the compass, he said to Shao Yu: "Nothing, this mountain is normal." ”

Shao Yu snorted coldly, and didn't say anything, just let Na Lei Zi and Ma Tianshun continue to explore the road in front, but seeing that we were about to go to another mountain, but we didn't find anything, the air in the woods was indeed a little humid, as I said before, there is a small stream flowing on this mountain, this stream also passes between these two mountains, and in one place it also converges into a small pool, in the dense forest, the smell of rotting grass is very strong, and the stuffy environment makes everyone's mood irritable.

"Big brother, there really isn't." Ma Tianshun said to Shao Yu stubbornly.

There is such a big place between the two mountains, half an hour is enough to cross, but we have been wandering here for nearly an hour, after walking back and forth, we still did not find anything unusual, and when Shao Yu heard Ma Tianshun's words, he was a little unable to sit still, in fact, except for me, no one knew in their hearts whether the legendary treasure existed, and Shao Yu was the same, I saw that he finally said coldly to Ma Tianshun in an irritable tone: "Keep looking." ”

"But............" Ma Tianshun said half of the words, so he didn't dare to continue, but what he wanted to say, our group all knew it, to say that we almost turned this place over, but still didn't find any treasure, Ma Tianshun began to doubt whether there was a treasure here, or rather, didn't we find the wrong place?

But these two results were unacceptable to Shao Yu, and he saw him shouting at Ma Tianshun: "But what? What's there? Be sure to be here, keep looking for me! ”

Since I recalled Shao Yu's past just now, Shao Yu's mood began to be abnormal, but at that time, everyone was exhausted, although Lei Zi and Ma Tianshun responded in a low voice, but they did not move, and Shao Yu walked to the side of the stream without saying a word and sat down, and began to bow his head and ponder.

Suddenly I feel that this person is really tired, everything has to be carefully calculated, maybe he thinks that nothing in this world can escape his calculations, but once he encounters an irresistible emergency, he is really out of line, and he doesn't want to give up, after all, he has paid too much effort for this fox fairy treasure, and we, while resting on the side, looked at him silently, time passed little by little, Shao Yu's expression became more and more uneasy, Even he couldn't predict whether this fox fairy treasure was here or not now, and this uneasy feeling slowly expanded, gradually eroding his heart.

After about ten minutes or so, Shao Yu finally couldn't sit still, only to see him lower his head, and then said to Ma Tianshun and Lei Zi: "You two, one to the east and the other to the west, even if you dig three feet into the ground before dark, you have to find something." ”

"Big brother, will it be us...... Are we in the wrong place? Ma Tianshun finally couldn't help it and said what was in his heart, and after Shao Yu heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows, and then shouted at Ma Tianshun: "How can you find the wrong place?!" Or are you incompetent! ”

"But there is no one!!" To say that Ma Tianshun is not a good stubble, although the loss of an arm has greatly reduced his arrogance and ability, but his surname has not changed because of this, after seeing Shao Yu say this, he also became anxious, only to see him shouted at Shao Yu: "I can't find it after walking a few times, this place is like a park, where is there anything abnormal?" ”

I watched them infighting very calmly, and there was no surprise in my heart, to say that the relationship between him and Ma Tianshun was not like me and Qian Zha paper, which is also the most obvious difference between friends and interests, although interests can make the two extremely close at ordinary times, but at a critical moment, the potential insecurity in this relationship is exposed.

"You!" Seeing Ma Tianshun arguing with him, Shao Yu's face became even more ugly, only to see him rub the ground and stand up, then take two steps back and shout at Ma Tianshun: "You dare to ......?" ”

As soon as Shao Yu's words came out, he was suddenly stunned, only to see him reach out and touch his head, it turned out that there were water droplets falling on his head, but he wanted to know where the water came from in this dense forest, so Shao Yu looked up, this look didn't matter, Shao Yu's eyes were suddenly attracted by the scene above his head.

You must know that we were halfway up a mountain, and not far away was a slightly steep mountain wall full of trees, and Shao Yu's eyes were looking straight at the mountain wall.

I saw that something was wrong, so I looked up too, and saw that the mountain wall was full of trees, and among these trees, there were two pine trees growing at an angle, and there was a stream flowing down the cliff above the pine trees, and the water droplets on Shao Yu's head just now were dripping from the branches and leaves of this pine tree.

Pine tree...... Drop?

After seeing this scene, my heart was also shocked, and I suddenly remembered a sentence in the treasure hunting formula: 'The rime is like a Buddha, and the ancient cave is not a cave.' ’

The 'ancient cave' in these two sentences naturally refers to the treasure, but what about the fog pine?

I know that the so-called 'rime' is not the name of a tree, but a natural phenomenon, this natural phenomenon is commonly known as 'tree hanging', is a very beautiful phenomenon, this phenomenon mostly occurs after the fog, the water molecules in the fog are frozen by the cold air on the branches of the tree so that it is full of frost, look at it from a distance, as if the tree is full of crystal-like leaves, speaking of which was relatively common in previous years, but because of the climate, in recent years in the city has not been seen again.

I looked at the pine tree, thoughtfully, thinking that the stream on the mountain washed this pine tree, although it is autumn so it can't freeze, but you must know that the temperature difference between the day and night here is very large, and it will take less than two months, this tree will definitely be white, this is not rime, what is this?

It seems that Shao Yu and I thought about it together, but after he looked at it for a while, he didn't get angry with Ma Tianshun, I saw him say in a somewhat excited tone, Let's go up the mountain.

To say that Shao Yu is their leader after all, Ma Tianshun, who has a strange surname, has already regretted it in his heart after he roared just now, and at this time, seeing that Shao Yu did not have a seizure, where would he dare to collide again? So he hurriedly told Lei Zi to take out the climbing equipment and distribute it to everyone, and we climbed to the cliff of the pine tree.

Sure enough, this time we finally got it right.

When we were about five meters away from the pine tree, we saw the thunder in front of us shouting, "There's a hole here!" ”

After hearing this, our hearts all chuckled, and we looked at it, only to see that Lei Zi tore off a bunch of green vines, and sure enough, on the halfway up the mountainside, a cave with a diameter of about two meters was exposed, this cave is expected to have existed for a long time, and the outside is surrounded by a layer of bryophytes and vines, and it took a lot of effort for Lei Zi to clean up the outside of the cave, and Shao Yu saw this cave, his face suddenly showed joy, and he hurriedly said to Lei Zi: "Quick, go in and have a look, see what's going on inside!" ”

Lei Zi nodded, then took out a mountaineering lamp from his backpack with his backhand, squatted at the entrance of the cave and shone it in, then turned his head to us and said, "It's very deep, I can't recruit the head, what should I do?" ”

It's all come to this point, where can Shao Yu take care of anything? I saw him say to the thunder: "Go in, how is the air quality?" ”

Lei Zi was bold, and after taking a few steps into the cave, he turned back and shouted, "It's okay, come on." ”

Hearing him say this, we climbed into the cave in turn, fortunately the equipment is complete, so the lighting is not a problem, Shao Yu entered the second inside, followed by me and Dao'an, and finally Ma Tianshun was at the bottom, and in fact, the cave is not crowded, don't worry about hitting your head, as Lei Zi said, the air here is enough to breathe, obviously there should be ventilation, but it is unusually damp, and full of musty smell, and there is darkness in front of you that you can't see the end.

We just groped our way forward in the dark cave, this feeling was like drilling a cellar, I had a slight phobia of tightness, in this kind of place I couldn't help but suppress it, but Shao Yu and his gang didn't react at all, it was obvious that they had long adapted to this underground environment, you must know that their Golden Witch Sect's lair was not much different from this cave to some extent, in other words, they should have been used to this rat-like life for a long time.

In this way, we touched the cave wall and walked forward, according to the time, we should have reached the center of this mountain, and the treasure of the fox fairy should be in front of us.

At that time, my mood was conflicted, I looked at Shao Yu directly, thinking to myself if I really saw the legendary dragon vein or treasure later, then what should I do? Should I attack Shao Yu when he was happy and bite him on the neck, or should I shout and expect the foxes to help?

But when I thought of the word fox, I began to wonder again, knowing that we had entered this cave, and that the treasure should be close at hand, but why had I not seen any shadow of a fox until now? Not to mention a fox, I didn't even smell the slightest scratch!

This is indeed too unreasonable, in such an important place, how could those foxes not be in control?

With this doubt, we continued to grope forward, when exploring this cave, I could obviously find that Shao Yu's body was trembling slightly, every time he walked a while, he told the thunder in front of him, if he found something strange to report immediately, it seems that he is really becoming less and less calm, but no wonder, to know that this treasure is his life's pursuit, and it is all of it, before such an important thing is about to be achieved, who will be calm?

However, something we didn't expect happened again.

After about twenty minutes, this tortuous cave seemed to be castrated lower and lower, and after walking for a while, it actually came to the end, after hearing the report of Lei Zi in front of him, Shao Yu was obviously startled, only to see him hurriedly said: "What is ahead?" ”

I only heard Lei Zi in front of me say: "There is nothing, there is ...... Ah, there is a way!! ”

When he got there, he heard a click, which seemed to be the sound of a tree branch breaking, and at the same time as this sound appeared, a light suddenly appeared in front of our eyes.

We were stunned in our hearts, we must know that this light is not an artificial light, nor is it a legendary jewel, but a sunshine, and when the light enters this cave, a gust of wind blows, which makes me feel a burst of joy in my heart after walking in this depressed cave for a long time, but at the same time, all kinds of puzzles and doubts came out again.

It was clearly a hole leading to the outside, but how did we get out like this? What about the treasure? What about the dragon vein?

After seeing this situation, Shao Yu was more anxious than me, only to see that he kept urging Lei Zi to explore the way, and that Lei Zi had to go forward according to his words, I only heard him outside the cave beckoning us to go out, and Shao Yu followed closely and walked out, and when I followed him to the entrance of the cave, I was completely shocked.

Yes, we had really come to the outside of the cave, which had traversed the entire mountain and finally opened at the foot of the mountain, and the sight before me was a vast grassland with no end in sight.

The wind gently stirred the fertile weeds, which swayed in the wind, and above the horizon was a red sun about to set, and above the head, there were white clouds in the sky.

Other than that, nothing.

This scene, really shocked all the people, we walked out of the cave one after another, and all of them were speechless, at this moment, we all knew it, it seems that we are really looking for the wrong place, or rather, this fox fairy treasure should not exist in the world, although we came here according to the treasure hunting formula, but still found nothing. And that Shao Yu looked at everything in front of him in a daze, this grassland is vast, but where is the treasure he wants in his heart?

He couldn't calm down anymore, and there were even tears in his eyes, only to see him looking at the scenery in front of him in disbelief, and then whispering something in the innermost, what he said, none of us could hear clearly, but we understood that his heart seemed to be about to collapse.

In fact, he himself is also a victim of this treasure, if Shao Yonglin was not moved by this treasure, then his current life will be different, although poor, but at ease, but because of this treasure, so that Shao Yu went to the other extreme, the emptiness of the soul made him more and more sick, the treasure is all he has, but God loves to play tricks on people, just when he immediately thought that he was going to get this treasure, the reality in front of him made him fall from the mountain to the trough in an instant.

How can he accept this? Even I was in a pang of pain in my heart at the time, the mantra of the helper itself was a joke and I could still accept it, but I didn't expect that even the treasure was a joke, so what are these generations of grievances in our shamanism? Is it also a joke?

Seeing that the hope of finding Qingdan is slim again, for some reason, there is not much sadness in my heart, but there is a trace of relief in my heart, even I don't know what this is, is it related to my previous dream? Could it be that Su Yidan wanted to tell me something in that dream?

But anyway, we seem to have really failed this time, not only me, but also Shao Yu, who has been trying his best to set up a big deception, he has lost more completely than me.

In this way, after a while, Shao Yu stayed like a clay man at a loss, and at that time, I sighed, and then slowly walked forward, and said to Shao Yu: "Forget it, there is no treasure here." ”

"No treasure?!" I saw that Shao Yu slowly turned his head, his expression became very hideous, perhaps it was because he didn't dare to face his own failure, so that he suddenly shouted at me hoarsely: "How is it possible! How can there be no treasure here?! ”

As he spoke, he looked at Ma Tianshun and Lei Zi, and the two of them were full of disappointment and frustration at this time, and they didn't look at him, Dao An stood behind me without saying a word, and the more Shao Yu roared, the more it proved his weakness, so I sighed to him: "Accept the reality, you failed." ”

"Am I failing? How could I fail! I saw that Shao Yu's eyes were bloodshot and yelled at me: "How could I be wrong? And you, what qualifications do you have to count me down?! Don't forget, I'm the orthodox Manchu shaman, and you're just a big god!! ”

I shook my head helplessly, it seems that he has really collapsed, so much so that he even talked about the source of the previous generation's entanglement, in fact, there is really no difference between Manchus and Han people in my heart, just like a shaman and a great god, in my heart this is almost the same, why do you care so much?
