Chapter 1339: Digging a Hole
"Until I have a certain understanding of the surroundings, I decided not to leave the Hanging Island. ”
This is the decision made by Fengyun after some observation. But it also means that he will have nothing to do.
But Fengyun still found something to do.
He continued to observe his neighbors, who, in fact, were not suitable, the nearest hanging island to him was ten miles away, but they were the most likely to provide him with useful information at the moment.
In addition to observation, Fengyun also tries to dig a hole on the hanging island.
He didn't do it out of boredom, but for a purpose, he wanted to understand the composition of the Hanging Islands, so as to solve a puzzle in his mind, that is, why so many Hanging Islands were suspended in the air, and he didn't think that they did it out of thin air.
They're all stone, and they're very heavy.
Even if he didn't find out the reason for the suspension of the Hanging Island, there would be no loss for him, not to mention that he had a more important purpose of digging a hole.
He wanted to hide. His instincts told him that the environment he was in was not safe, and that he had always had a sense of crisis since he appeared in this strange space, but he didn't know where the threat was coming from yet.
Past experience has taught us that it is much safer to be able to hide in the face of danger than to be exposed.
"Huh?"
As soon as he started digging, Fengyun's eyes couldn't help but widen.
He was shocked to find that the seemingly inconspicuous hanging islands were unexpectedly hard, and this also solved a puzzle in his heart, that is, why all the hanging islands he saw showed no traces of passivity.
This once puzzled him, if the environment he was in now was really dangerous, there was no reason why the various creatures and cannibal barbarians who stayed on the hanging island should not do something to reduce the danger.
Digging a hole and hiding is a good way to avoid risks.
Fengyun didn't think that he was the only one who could come up with the method of digging a hole, but he didn't find any traces of excavation on any of the hanging islands.
Now he finally knew the answer, it wasn't that the creatures and cannibal barbarians didn't want to do it, but they simply couldn't.
The stone that made up the Hanging Island was so hard that Fengyun secretly reached out with a claw to grab it, leaving no trace.
Fengyun knew exactly how sharp his claws were after he turned into a Jiao, at least in the process of hunting other creatures and cannibal barbarians, none of them could be torn apart by his claws.
The most common situation is that as long as he grabs lightly, the prey will immediately open the skin and flesh, and even be directly cut into several pieces by his claws, which is really much sharper than a knife.
His claws were helpless against the stones that made up the Hanging Island, and it was not surprising that other creatures and cannibalistic barbarians could not.
However, Fengyun did not give up the idea of digging a hole on the hanging island where he is now, because compared to other creatures and cannibal barbarians, he has a sharp weapon that they do not have, and that is sword intent.
How terrifying the sword intent is, Fengyun is very clear, especially when he is sucked into the bones, and the power of the sword intent has been greatly increased, he doesn't believe it, he will have no way to take the stone under his feet.
Fengyun spurred the sword intent and dug into the spot he had chosen, between two stones jutting out of the ground.
Although the gap between the two stones is not very large, it is better to conceal it. If you can be careful when digging, and you can put some effort into the opening of the hole, it will be difficult to detect.
Coupled with his state, it is a slender strip, and the hole does not need to be large, which is undoubtedly a very ideal position.
"Huh?"
When Fengyun used his sword intent to dig, Fengyun's eyes once again showed a look of surprise.
It's not that the stone is too strong, and it's particularly laborious to dig with the knife, but on the contrary, it's too easy.
Although it can't be said to be like digging tofu, Fengyun does feel very relaxed, if you have to make an analogy, it should be similar to digging rotten wood, almost without much effort, and it is easy to dig down.
If it weren't for the fact that Fengyun had used his claws to catch the place where the knife intent had dug up, Fengyun would even have to suspect that the place he was digging now was completely different from the place where the Hanging Island was located.
"Maybe it's the sword intent that just restrains the Hanging Island, right?"
Fengyun couldn't figure out why this was happening, even if he knew the destructive power of the knife intent, it was too exaggerated.
He wasn't a man who liked to drill the horns, so he put it aside for the time being and began to concentrate on digging holes.
However, due to the surprisingly good excavation effect of the knife intent, Fengyun modified the previous excavation plan, specifically abandoning the digging between the two protruding stones, and instead cutting them down along with the ground and using them as a lid.
When the cave was dug and he hid in it, he covered it with it, and even if someone landed on the hanging island and searched for it, he might not be able to find out that there was a problem.
The excavation went well, and it didn't take long for Fengyun to dig a hole in the ground, as long as he didn't let himself return to his original form, with his current size, it should be relatively spacious to stay in it.
However, he still faced a problem, and that was what to do with the excavated rocks.
If they are piled directly on the Hanging Island, it is equivalent to setting up a sign to tell the people who come to the Hanging Island that there is something wrong with it, which is obviously what Fengyun does not want to see.
But he couldn't help but deal with this problem.
After some thought, he came up with an unavoidable solution, and threw the excavated stone underneath, but he still had an extra eye when he threw it.
Instead of dropping directly from the Hanging Island where he is, he throws it into the distance, so that the stones that fall will not fall underneath the Hanging Island, making it less likely to be discovered.
It's a pity that he is far away from the other hanging islands, otherwise he could have framed them.
Having disposed of the stone, Fengyun worked on the stone that served as the lid, and in addition to making it fit more with the ground and minimizing flaws, he also dug some hidden holes in it.
These small holes were intended for him to observe, and he didn't want to enter the cave and be ignorant of what was going on outside.
I don't know if it's a coincidence, but after Fengyun did everything, he found that the sky was darkening, and it was darkening at a speed many times faster than normal.
At the same time, the sense of crisis he had been feeling suddenly became stronger.
