Text Chapter 281 A slight discovery
"Huh?" Qin Que, who was about to take a step, suddenly looked stunned, his brows furrowed slightly, just at this moment, the rune that had not moved had a reaction, and in an instant, there was no sense in his mind, and that rune had been erased.
"Something finally appeared? There are three monks in the late stage of the sea who are looking at the door, and it is unlikely that other monks will enter here, but I don't know if they really happened to come to their own place, or if the indigenous demon beasts here appeared. ”
While Qin Que was thinking in his heart, his gaze and divine sense also swept towards the fork in the road where the rune had disappeared. The fork in the road is twists and turns, and in a ghost place like the Zhou Mountains, the divine sense is even more useless, it is better to see farther with the eyes, and what happened in the depths of the fork in the road is not known at all.
I didn't plan to investigate in person, until I had to do it, Qin Que didn't want to fight with others, not to mention the three late Bihai monks who were not opponents, they were indigenous demon beasts, and Qin Que didn't want to. Sandpiper and clam compete for the benefit of the fisherman, Qin Que doesn't want to become a sandpiper clam himself, now that there is a movement on a fork in the road, he can find another safe way to leave.
"Huh?" Just as he was about to take a step, Qin Que suddenly struck again, and in the midst of the divine thoughts, another rune aura disappeared.
Thinking of those ant beasts and mosquito beasts, especially the cracked insects he encountered not long ago, Qin Que felt a pang in his heart, and this time he didn't even glance at it, and immediately jumped into it along a fork in the road in the opposite direction to where the two runes were.
The disappearance of the two runes just now was just a head, and in Qin Que's divine thoughts, one rune after another lost their connection, and in less than a quarter of an hour, except for a few runes that were casually thrown out when he was running just now, the twenty or so runes left before were all erased.
Qin Que, who was walking along a strange fork in the road, showed a trace of doubt on his face, how could this kind of thing happen, even if it was a demon beast, even if it was a large group of demon insects and the like, it was unlikely that they would rush over from more than twenty forks at the same time, could it be that they had identified themselves as a target? If this was the case, there should have been demon insects and demon beasts chasing after him at this moment, but the runes that had just been arranged did not react at all.
Gradually, Qin Que's pace slowed down, and he listened attentively, in this kind of place, the eyes and divine sense are not enough, but the ears are more effective. Listening for a while, he still didn't hear the slightest movement in the passage when he came, and the dozen or so runes in the divine mind sense were safe and sound.
Qin Que, who shook his head, stepped forward again, and did not go deeper into the passage again, but returned to the way he came. This kind of strange thing must be clarified after all to be relieved.
Returning along the road he had just walked, Qin Que's expression became a little strange, and after a while, he stood in front of the cave where he meditated not long ago, looking at a rune that he threw down when he left in the hole, although it was still there, it was far from the strength it should have, and after looking at it for a while, Qin Que looked at the surrounding mountain walls that were as hard as iron, revealing a trace of sudden muttering: "It was not a demon beast or a monk who wiped it out, but was consumed by the natural power of this place?"
All of Qin Que's runes are done casually, and the runes have no power except for a trace of divine thought that can be sensed by Qin Que, but then they can do it casually, which is also a means for the monks of the Sea Realm, if it flows naturally, the yuan power is enough to maintain the runes for more than a few months, and now it is only a moment's work, and the breath of this rune in front of him has been weakened by one-tenth, calculating the time, the time it takes to completely dissipate is not about half an hour.
found that he had a false alarm, Qin Que was not happy because of this, on the contrary, he felt more dignified in the depths of his heart.
Along the way before, any of the demon beasts encountered were more than a step stronger than their counterparts in the Buzhou Mountain Range, and a few fourth-grade golden bats made several monks in the late stage of Bihai a little embarrassed to deal with.
Originally, it was found that the three monks had to make a lot of preparations, and Qin Que was very afraid of the demon beasts that might be encountered in this cave passage, even if Qin Que's strength was far superior to that of the same level, he also knew that he was still inferior to the guys in the late stage of Bihai. The original plan was not to contact the demon beasts here, and after sensing their traces in advance with the runes he arranged at any time, he chose a safe path to avoid them first, but now he found that his runes were far less useful than he originally thought, and if he could only hold on for more than half an hour, it was far from enough to satisfy Qin Que.
According to Qin Que's strong divine thoughts, he could have sensed runes more than ten miles away, but with a buffer of more than ten miles, he found traces of demon beasts, even if it was a fast demon beast, Qin Que had enough time to choose a retreat to dodge first. But now in this cave passage, Qin Que needs to be on guard from time to time, and needs to find a way out one by one, it would be good for Qin Que to walk within a radius of more than ten miles in two hours, calculate the distance, maybe there was really a time when the demon beast found a rune to erase it, I am afraid that it is two or three miles behind him or even closer, this little distance is not very useful, but it is better than nothing.
What worries Qin Que the most is not when he is looking for a way out of the cave passage, but when he rests and recovers. Today's Qin Que is already a cultivator above the sea, but he doesn't have the strength to stay awake all the time, and he still needs to spend a lot of time meditating and recovering every day, not only the true yuan, but also the mind. If you are injured, or even slightly injured, it is not uncommon for a single meditation to take several hours or even days, and in that case, a rune of just two hours is even more inappropriate. If it happened to be at that time, but it was besieged by the indigenous demon beasts that suddenly appeared, and the Xuanguang Spirit Wings were useless, I can't say what the situation would be.
In the future, it is best not to be careful, to be cautious and cautious, and not to be injured.
After thinking about it and waking up for a while, Qin Que took another step towards the depths of the passage, speaking of which, it is good to leave this cave passage as soon as possible, and cross the Heavenly Road to the southeast cultivation world as soon as possible, this is not a place where a monk who has just opened the sea for a long time can trespass at will.
Between the journeys, when encountering a fork in the road, do not forget to throw a few runes out, although most of the time can not be of great use, can manage a point is a point, talk is better than nothing.
One by one, the runes disappeared behind him, and Qin Que also probed deeper into the passage step by step, without finding demon beasts or encountering monks, but three days had passed, calculating the distance, Qin Que had walked at least hundreds of miles, and still did not find the exit of the passage he wanted most.
This cave passage is far more complicated than any one that has been walked before, in the past three days, Qin Que has explored no less than hundreds of forks in the road, in Qin Que's own words, this ghost place is a termite cave thousands of times larger, extremely complicated. Some of the forks in the road were dead ends, and there was only a stone wall blocking the way at the end, and some of them were linked together, and after turning for a long time, Qin Que found that he had actually walked to the place he had been on the first day.
The complicated forks and the continuous passages give Qin Que the feeling that they are very similar to the termite caves he saw when he was a child.
However, in the past three days, Qin Que has not found nothing, for example, here in front of Qin Que at this moment.
It is still a dead end, unlike most other dead ends, there is a black vertical hole at the end, the entrance is not large, only half a foot in size, the hole is gradually widened under the hole, but the thickest part is only three feet square, it looks like a deep well. When I raised my eyes and looked in, I couldn't see the water in the well, only a little faint green light flashed, the green light was faint, Qin Que couldn't see the depth, as long as the divine sense entered the well, there was a bone-chilling cold, a hundred times colder than the coldest ice, even if it was above the sea, even if it was a small success in refining the fire, in an instant, Qin Que couldn't help but fight a cold war.
This is not the first one, this is the seventh bite that Qin Que has encountered in more than half a day. Such a strange thing, Qin Que didn't think to provoke it, just like the previous six times, but his divine sense swept away, and he sensed that general coldness, Qin Que immediately withdrew his divine sense and turned around and left. After three days, Qin Que had already discovered that the chill in the well would not poke out of the wellhead to invade him, as long as his divine consciousness did not enter the well, he would not be able to detect the chill at all, as if they were sealed under the wellhead.
For this deep well, for the flashing green light in the well, and the cold of unknown origin, Qin Que was not uninterested, and Qin Que also thought about it more than once, guessing whether there was some innate cold spirit in the well or some powerful ice demon beast. But if things continue like this, even if it takes another ten or twenty days, Qin Que will not be interested in spending more time exploring it.
Buzhou Mountain Range was not a place where monks in the early days of the sea could wander around, such a strange deep well, such a strange green cold, whether it was a natural spirit or a demon beast, Qin Que didn't think that such a spirit thing could be withstood by himself now.
Until just now, Qin Que had just walked out of this fork in the road leading to the well's dead end, when he suddenly noticed that the aura of a rune he had thrown down earlier had suddenly disappeared.
Instead of being worn out by the innate power here as before, this rune was only arranged for a little more than a quarter of an hour.
"Demon beasts, monks?"
A trace of vigilance flashed in his heart, and Qin Que immediately flashed into a fork in the opposite road, but after three days of fruitless searching, Qin Que did not flee directly as originally planned, and at a bend in the depths of this fork in the road, Qin Que stopped his body and released a wisp of divine consciousness to sweep out.
He didn't let Qin Que wait too long, and a trace of movement suddenly flashed in his consciousness, but this movement was extremely fast, and it disappeared and flew past in an instant, Qin Que only sensed that it was not a monk, but a small beast with a big palm, and the direction of the little beast was the fork in the road leading to a deep well that he had just come out.
"Huh?" Qin Que didn't act rashly, he stayed in this place for a long time, and only after he didn't notice anything more appearing, did he step out.
It is true that Qin Que is afraid of demon beasts, and the same is true for third-grade demon beasts, but it is for swarms of cracked insects or ant beasts and mosquito beasts, or strange guys, if there is only one, even if it is above the fourth grade or even close to the fifth grade, Qin Que is not afraid, otherwise, the original Qin Que would not have chosen to enter the heavenly path to cross the Buzhou Mountain Range. However, if he had just come in three days ago, even if he encountered such a demon beast, even if he didn't notice how strong the other party was, Qin Que would not want to provoke him. It's just that after three days of fruitless searching, there are more suffocated Qin Que, and now he suddenly found a demon beast that was not too strong, and he suddenly had some thoughts.
The Qingwu Flying Sword was in front of him, several layers of spirit armor to protect him, and Qin Que stepped into the fork in the road again.
Until I went to the deepest part, I saw traces of demon beasts. Qin Que didn't suspect that his induction just now was wrong, so there was only one explanation, the palm-sized demon beast had entered this deep well.
Squinting his eyes again, he poked his gaze out and looked down into the deep well, just like before, except for a flickering green light, Qin Que couldn't see anything.
"Could it be that this is the lair of the demon beast?"
After a few glances, Qin Que didn't do more, and then turned around and retreated.
Out of the passage did not go far, Qin Que sat down at the nearest fork in the road and urged the Aoki Sentence Divine Technique, and after a bit of investigation, the true yuan did not lose much, and Qin Que's mind was only a little tired at the moment, not to the point of deliberately recovering. The reason for this is just to stare at the exit of the fork in the road from afar.
If you are familiar with this cave passage, no one can compare to the indigenous demon beasts here, and seeing a demon beast in three days is still a demon beast that you can deal with, so that Qin Que, who has been unable to find the exit of the passage, has a little hope, and maybe he can follow an indigenous demon beast to find the right path.
It didn't take half an hour for the slightly tired mind to recover to perfection, Qin Que Shen thought about it, summoned Ah Er in the Yin Corpse Ring, and asked him to go over there to replace the runes that were about to disappear to sentry, and he still sat cross-legged on the ground and did not get up, staring closely at the exit of the passage without relaxing for a moment.
It's a pity that things didn't go as expected, and after waiting for several hours, there was no movement in that passage, and the unknown demon beast that had entered it before did not come out, and there was no second demon beast to enter again.
Qin Que, who was a little disappointed, got up and walked into the fork in the road again, and walked to the side of the deep well. Waving his hand and throwing out a formation disc to urge the cage around, Qin Que looked ruthless, and at the same time, the Yang Fire True Yuan in his body was agitated, and at the same time, he released his divine sense and entered the deep well.
Not surprisingly, as soon as his divine consciousness entered the well, he immediately sensed a chill to his bones. Qin Que did not retract his divine sense as before, but still urged his divine sense to look down, but to see what was strange in the depths of this deep well, and what those flashing green rays were.
After a few zhang, Qin Que had to admit that he had no ability to probe deeper in the well at all, this chill was not like the cold winter that made him stiff, but it went straight into the meridians of the sea and even the divine soul, only by completely urging the yang fire true yuan in the body could he resist the cold, but after a moment's effort, the loss of the true yuan was actually more than the cost of a battle, if it was just the loss of the true yuan, it would be nothing. What made Qin Que depressed and had to stop was that his divine consciousness was a few feet below and he couldn't go any further, as if even his divine sense was frozen.
"Your sister, what the hell is this place, such a cold place, the monks of the Sea Reclamation Realm will be frozen to death if they go down, that little demon beast must not have shown the breath of ice just now, how can a demon beast that is not an ice line withstand such a cold, is it that the native is so strong?"
Qin Que, who had withdrawn his divine sense, shouted a few times with some resentment, and then glanced at the deep well that did not react, Qin Que was about to get up and put away the array plate, but suddenly stopped his movements, and reached out and took out a fresh spirit grass and silk vine from his arms.
In an instant, Aoki's sentence was urged, no longer the rolling yang fire true yuan, but the pure wood line spirit yuan, with the influx of spirit yuan, the silk vine began to grow in an instant, and the tea kung fu was dozens of zhang, but the spirit grass that was born in this way did not have the spirit of the spirit that it should have, but Qin Que was not originally for cultivating the spirit grass, and after a while, he raised his hand and threw one end of the silk vine into the deep well.
"Hehe, sure enough, it's a lot easier than just now. I haven't seen the little guy for so long, and I don't know how it's now. The next time I go back to the Southwest Xiuzhen World, it's time to see the little guy. The Divine Consciousness went down with the Silk Vine, and Qin Que showed a trace of joy on his face, but this joy did not last long, and the Divine Consciousness had not yet reached the location of the previous exploration, and Qin Que found that the Silk Vine attached to the Divine Sense had already been wiped out by the chill in the deep well and the breath of the living creatures.
"Eh, it's still not as good as the young spirit talent, if the little guy is here, with his supernatural means, he will definitely be able to find a suitable thing to explore it. Even if the entire cave passage is clearly explored, it should not be a difficult task. ”
After a few sighs, Qin Que completely extinguished the idea of exploring the depths of the wellhead, and saw the bone-chilling cold, let alone have any intention of going down in person.
Put away the array plate and turned around and went out, Qin Que didn't just wait here for the rabbit, and after throwing a few runes near the exit, he left Ah Er in the place where he was just sitting cross-legged, Qin Que stepped into the passage where the little demon beast came out before, since nothing was found here, Qin Que could only try his luck over there, anyway, it was a fork in the road that had not been explored, and maybe there could be any unexpected discoveries.
Going all the way down this fork in the road, Qin Que really made a discovery. In fact, it is not a new discovery, it is only because he has just seen the little demon beast that Qin Que began to pay attention to the traces that appeared from time to time along the fork in the road, and he had been speculating about what these traces occasionally appeared on the mountain wall were left behind, and at this time, Qin Que found that many of them were very similar to the traces of small animals such as mice and squirrels and other small things. Immediately, Qin Que remembered that he had seen similar traces in the forks in the road near several other deep wells, but he didn't pay much attention to it at that time. Looking back now, it is very likely that these traces were left by the little demon beast just now.
Whether it is as he guessed, Qin Que can't be sure, but at least there is one more trace that can be used as a marker, how can Qin Que go all the way down to see what he will find.
