Chapter 1154: A Last Resort

"Dang!"

Fengyun pulled the knife out of its scabbard, raised it high, and slashed at the ground, and in an instant, sparks flew in all directions, making a sound of metal striking.

But when he saw the place where the blade was slashing, his brow immediately furrowed.

Although the stone was shattered, it was only a shallow cut, and not even a toothpick could be placed.

Judging from the depth of the hole in the stone, if you want to dig out the treasure, the depth of the excavation must at least exceed the depth of the hole, and you don't know how long it will take to achieve the goal based on the damage of the knife to the stone.

"Splitting stones with a knife won't work. ”

Fengyun looked at the shallow cut on the stone and made a judgment.

Although there was an element of temptation when he used a knife to chop stones this time, he did not use all his strength, nor did he urge the knife intent, otherwise the destructive force should be much greater, but it is still not advisable to rely on brute force to obtain treasure.

Whether it is using all your strength or urging the sword intent, without exception, it will increase the burden of Fengyun, and it is not a little bit more than that.

In other words, if Fengyun does this, it will definitely be difficult to last.

If the stone wasn't so hard, Fengyun wouldn't mind giving it a try, but the question was, what if he ran out of energy and still couldn't split the stone and see the treasure?

Of course, this problem is not difficult to solve, and when the situation recovers, just continue, at most it will take some more time.

However, there is one question that cannot be ignored, and that is whether doing so will cause damage to the treasure.

Actually, this is not the most serious problem, the most serious problem is that Fengyun can't confirm whether the treasure is still there.

If the treasure is still there, everything is easy to say, but what if the treasure is gone?

Exhausted and tired, he finally broke the terrible hard stone, but there was nothing, wouldn't it be a big injustice.

"It seems that if we want to get the treasure, we need to think of other ways. ”

Fengyun looked at Miao Piao and put forward his own opinion.

"I agree, the stone is too hard and brute force really won't work. ”

Miao Piao nodded immediately, obviously agreeing with Fengyun's statement.

"But how can we get the treasure out of it without brute force?"

Fengyun and Miao Piao glanced at each other, and both looked at each other's frowns.

But it has come to this point, and it is unlikely that they will choose to give up.

Over the next period of time, they tried a lot of methods, such as looking for ways to dig under the stone without destroying it.

They would make this choice based on their judgment that the stone on which the treasure grows is too hard, too hard to be abnormal.

Stone is a common thing, whether it is Fengyun or Miao Piao, I have seen a lot, but without exception, compared with the stone that has grown treasures, it is too far away.

After all, there are many types of stones, and there are differences in the hardness of different types of stones, but if the difference is so big, it is not normal.

Therefore, Fengyun and Miao Piao have reason to suspect that the stone that has grown treasures is abnormal, and it is very likely that it will become so hard because it has grown over treasures.

If this guess is correct, then they still have a better chance of finding the treasure, because they can choose to avoid the area where the treasure grows.

The area occupied by the treasure is only a part of the entire cave, and if you dig down from other places, even if the stone is affected by the treasure and becomes hard, it will definitely not be so perverted.

"Damn it!"

But Fengyun and Miao Piao had just put their ideas into action, and they had tasted failure.

Although their guess could not be said to be wrong, avoiding the stone where the treasure had grown, the hardness of the stone did decrease, but they did not expect that the decline would be so small, only about 30%.

The decline of thirty percent seems to be not small, but it depends on who it is, and compared with the stone land that has grown more than treasures, it is still too low.

The two of them were not reconciled, and they tried every part of the cave, although they found a rule, the farther away from the stone field where the treasure grew, the harder the stone would be, which also confirmed Fengyun's inference, but it was useless.

The distance is far from the stone field that is longer than the treasure, and the hardness of the stone has dropped a lot, but this has also greatly increased the distance of excavation, not to mention that the decline in the hardness of the stone is not particularly large, and thirty percent is already the limit.

The attempt failed, but Fengyun and Miao drifted down not without any gains, on the contrary, their gains were very large, at least solving a very big puzzle in their hearts - why did the head of the floating water tribe lead the clansmen and the invading enemies to fight to the death.

At first, Fengyun thought that the leader of the floating water tribe was sacrificing his life and wealth and attaching too much importance to treasures, but now he knew that they were forced to make such a choice.

When Fengyun and Miao drifted around the cave to test the hardness of the rock in order to find a good excavation point, they found many traces, almost all over the entire cave.

The two of them didn't notice it at first, first, those traces were relatively inconspicuous, and second, their attention was focused on the place where the treasure had grown.

Through these traces, Fengyun and Miao Piao immediately came to the conclusion that there were other people who had the same thoughts as them, and they had gone to do it before them.

Who were the people who tried before them?

After discovering such traces, this question ran out of Fengyun and Miao Piao's heads on its own, but the answer is not difficult to guess.

After Fengyun found out that the imprints of those tests were relatively new, the answer was already on the horizon for him.

It's the head of the floating tribe, and that's the answer Fengyun came up with.

From this, it is not difficult to imagine the process.

One day, the head of the floating tribe came to the cave to check the growth of the treasures, only to find that the treasures were gone.

The situation at that time should be the same as Fengyun and Miao Piao found that the treasures were missing, and tried every means to find them, but the result was that they tried all kinds of methods, but they were not able to succeed.

At this time, an even worse situation arises, and the robbers somehow know the situation of the treasure and want to snatch it from the tribe.

What's worse is that the leaders of the floating water tribe can't do it even if they want to hand over the treasure in exchange for peace.

Even if they tell the truth, the enemy will never believe it, and in the end they can only fight to the death, trying to defeat the enemy, only to end up losing both.
