Chapter 22: Unexpected Footsteps
In the bedroom, Wen Ming took the spars he had dug in the past few days and put them on his body, plus the ones he dug today, a total of 88 pieces, put some in his sleeves, put some in his arms, and put some more in the bag on his belt, and it was finished, and it didn't look bloated in several places.
He didn't put it in a bag directly, not because he was afraid that someone would find out that he had brought a lot of hedrons, but because he didn't want to be affected when he moved.
Walking out of the room, no one from Jubei Island was there, although it was noon, but they didn't come up to eat, because it took a lot of time and physical strength up and down, so they all brought their lunch down when they went down in the morning, and ate lunch directly below.
Walking out of the hall, Wen Ming looked at the door, and there was the sound of Zhou Chengtai, Chenggong and others chatting and laughing at dinner, and the main content of the conversation was that Kuatong Qinghong's cultivation had made great progress.
Thinking of Tong Qinghong, Wen Ming secretly regretted that he didn't meet him alone.
What he wanted was to take Tong Qinghong hostage and force Tong Huan to let him go.
Originally, this kind of hostage-taking behavior was something he disdained to do, but in the past few days, it seemed that this was the best way, and slowly his disdain gradually dissipated, and he began to actually want to act.
It's a pity that after the first day of meeting, not only Tong Qinghong, but even Tong Tong rarely went out of that door, and the only time they met the two came out, it was Zhou and Cheng who were by their side together.
If he had a weapon, with only physical strength and combat experience, he could defeat either of Zhou and Cheng without too much effort, and with enough time and in this narrow underground space, it was not impossible to defeat the two.
But without weapons, it would take him a while to defeat one person, and with a slight delay, Tong Huan would be able to drive him out.
Therefore, the idea of taking hostages has not been implemented.
However, if you want to catch Yang Youhe, there is a chance, Yang Youhe will come alone and chat with the people of Jubei Island, but Yang Youhe's weight is not enough to force Tong Huan and them to risk the possibility of the spar mine leaking and let him go.
So Wen Ming had no choice but to give up this idea in the end.
With a pity in his heart, Wen Ming walked out lightly, Tong Huan where they ate - there should be a small restaurant listening to the sound in the comparison of the inner place, and it is not facing the corridor, so although the door outside is not closed, they and Wen Ming can't see each other.
Quietly leaving and walking out, I remember that I arrived at the triangular intersection leading to the residential area, the spar mine, and the passage out, Wen Ming did not hesitate to turn left and enter the passage out.
Most of the passage has a steep slope, and when you want to get out, it's like climbing a mountain, but it's not a problem for him at all.
When he came down, he walked slowly with the people of Jubei Island, walked for about a quarter of an hour, but when he went up, it only took him a minute, this is still in order to control the footsteps as much as possible, not running too fast, if he runs with all his strength, even if there is no battle spirit, he can't reach the real maximum speed, it will only take more than half a minute.
After a while, Wen Ming stood under the entrance of the cave, and the iron chain was indeed locked at the fixed end of the ground.
However, he didn't come here to secretly leave, but to summon the flame creatures here.
He didn't do it, he didn't know how much movement he would make, or it was better to stay away from Tong Huan, as for why he chose this place instead of other places, such as in the pit below.
That's because he was afraid that the movement would be too loud at that time, and he would directly collapse the nearby passage, and it was not impossible for him to collapse the entire underground space if he was unlucky, and he, the initiator, would have to die below at that time.
And at the entrance of the cave, it is much better, this place is already very close to the ground, even if it collapses, he can use the power of the flame creatures to kill and run out, if he can directly make a way out, it would be better, when the time comes, he will go up first, let the flame creatures guard the entrance of the cave, and save talking nonsense with Tong Huan.
Elemental creatures will continue to weaken after leaving the kingdom of God, if they can't go back, the final result will inevitably be death, the stronger the longer they can hold on, and then the surrounding environment will also affect the survival time.
Wenming is a flame creature in the kingdom of the gods, if it is in a place where the flame energy is strong, such as volcanic magma, it can greatly slow down the rate of weakening, that is, it will prolong the survival time, but in the boundless sea, it will greatly shorten the survival time, according to the information and speculation he found, even if the most powerful fire-winged snake in the god country is summoned at this time, it can only live for a short period of seven or eight days, ten days, or a month.
It is worth mentioning that if the Firewing Snake is here, Wen Ming successfully returns to the Sunset Mountain Range and replenishes a lot of energy to the Kingdom of God, then he can use the location of the Firewing Snake as a spatial node to directly open a spatial channel and take it back to the Kingdom of God.
It's just that not to mention whether it is worth opening a spatial passage for the Firewing Snake, even if he is willing, the Firewing Snake can really live for a month, and can he return to the Sunset Mountain Range within a month?
As for the idea of taking the Firewing Serpent with him all the way or placing it not far away, it is simply not feasible, he will summon the flame creatures here, is to estimate the matter of Tong Huan and his group of elemental creatures and the kingdom of God, or even if they know, because they will keep the hedron mine secret, and will be afraid of his revenge, they will not reveal the matter of the flame creatures.
But to dare to wander around with fire creatures in other places would be too long.
So Wen Ming thought about it, or simply sacrifice a weaker flame creature directly, and even give it an order, after a day and a half, after he was completely far away, he let it sink to the bottom of the sea and commit suicide by itself, leaving no trace.
And this target Wen Ming has already chosen, that is, the big firebird that he encountered when he first entered the kingdom of God, who let it play tricks on him and the kitten at the beginning, and almost killed them, at this time it is time to repay the debt.
Looking at the boulder on his head, Wen Ming was about to start acting, but his face suddenly showed hesitation.
Carefully pressed his ear to the cave wall beneath the boulder, and after only two breaths, his face changed as he heard a voice from above.
There was a faint but significant sound of footsteps coming from his ears, and it was the footsteps of human walking, and Wen Ming was sure he had heard it correctly.
What made his face change color was the slight sound of footsteps, this island was not suitable for rest, but if a ship had to dock for some reason, it was not impossible for the people on board to rest on the island.
But the footsteps are very slight and unusual, when the boat is tired and goes to the island to rest, normally it should be a heavier walk, and relatively loud talking, but at this time the footsteps are slight, and the sound of talking is simply inaudible, I don't know because the sound is too quiet and does not directly touch the ground, can not be transmitted, or no one speaks.
In this case, what would be the purpose of the people above? (To be continued.) )
