Volume 1 Flying in the Sky Chapter 34 Not "It"
Kong Ling had a green vine on his shoulder, and his expression was serious, "No one is calling you." Gu Xin, you may really be hallucinating! ”
Gu Xin asked him rhetorically, "You didn't hear anything just now?" ”
Kong Ling shook his head.
Gu Xin's expression gradually became solemn. He couldn't have heard it wrong, someone did call his name just now!
But apart from Kong Ling, there was no one else around at all!
Kong Ling patted Gu Xin on the shoulder, "The smell of emerald green vines will affect the spirit, I'll send you back first." The path to the cave is too complicated, and you may get lost when you go back alone. ”
"I'm not poisoned, do you think I'm hallucinating?" Gu Xin's eyes were extremely clear and clear, Kong Ling took a closer look at it, and it really didn't look like he had been poisoned.
"Why do you keep hearing someone call you?" Kong Ling was very strange, he didn't hear Gu Xin's shouts at all, and it was quiet in the cave all the way.
Gu Xin's heart felt that something was wrong, in fact, since he first entered the vine forest cave, he felt that the environment here was very strange.
But for now, Gu Xin still guessed, "I suspect that someone is following us!" This man is very strong, and it is too dark in the cave for us to see him. ”
Kong Ling became nervous, "Someone is following us?" Who? ”
Gu Xin explained helplessly, "A few days ago, I provoked a few disciples of the Sword Academy. Outside, they were afraid of me and didn't dare to retaliate, but now that they have entered the cave and see that only me and you are in a team, they may have moved their hearts and minds to take the opportunity to retaliate. ”
Gu Xin said that he naturally beat Zhou Bao in Qiaoting. Outside, Zhou Bao didn't dare to provoke him, but the environment of the vine forest cave was secret, and Zhou Bao might want to take the opportunity to take revenge on Gu Xin.
Gu Xin suspected that he had heard someone calling his name continuously, and it was Zhou Bao's people who were making trouble.
Kong Ling nervously observed the surroundings, "We are taking the big exam now, and if someone is really following him, he won't dare to do it!" The Sword Academy will not allow disciples to fight with each other during the big exam! ”
Gu Xin shook his head, "Before entering the cave before, the sword academy teacher with a scumbag on his face said that we were not allowed to cheat in the cave. What do you think is cheating? Entrained with emerald green vines? The teacher's words actually wanted to remind us that there was a situation in the cave where they robbed each other of the green vines! ”
"Since they are robbing each other, there will definitely be a fight, and the Sword Academy only reminded it, rather than the teacher directly stopping it, which means that the Sword Academy has also acquiesced, and there will be a fight between the disciples in the vine forest cave."
"If someone is following us, whether it's the one I've provoked or not, then I'm guessing he's going to find an opportunity. Maybe he followed us just to rob us of the green vines we picked! Hole tells you to be careful, and watch out for the surroundings when picking green vines! ”
Kong Ling couldn't help but say, "It's you who should be careful...... My strength is stronger than yours, unless someone from the Yuan Spirit Realm makes a move, I don't have to be afraid of the fourfold base at all. ”
Gu Xin nodded, Kong Ling's strength is still relatively strong.
Gu Xin held the golden stone.
I listened with bated breath for a while.
The cavern was dead silent, and he didn't hear anything other than the sound of his own heartbeat.
The voice that shouted Gu Xin's name just now sounded like it was coming from behind him at first glance, but behind him was obviously a stone wall of a cave, so it was impossible for it to come from the stone.
Or is there a fork in the road behind the rock wall? That person shouted "Gu Xin" on the fork in the road?
"Let's move on, be careful." Gu Xin said.
Kong Ling snorted.
took Gu Xin and continued to move deeper into the cave.
Although the two of them have now walked deeply, the cave as a whole is still a steep downward slope. Gu Xin estimated that the distance from here to the ground in a straight line may exceed a kilometer! The vine forest cave is worthy of the underground river of Mirror Lake, and this depth alone is very amazing!
"Gu Xin, can you still hold on?"
"No problem, just keep walking."
Along the way, the two saw more than a dozen emerald green vines, but unfortunately there was no juice at all, they were more than a dozen ordinary emerald green vines, and there was no value in picking.
Ignoring these ordinary verdant vines, the two of them continued to go deeper for more than an hour, feeling that the terrain of the cave began to flatten out, and it seemed that they had finally reached the maximum depth.
The whole cave began to extend horizontally, and the branches and forks became more and more numerous.
Kong Ling had an extra piece of paper in his hand at this time, and a large number of brief marks were drawn on it, recording the choices made by the two when they walked through the fork in the road, so that they could ensure that they could find the right route as soon as they returned.
"This is basically the deepest depth of the Tenglin Cave, that is, the place where the Mirror Lake Dark River mainly flowed in the past, if this is the starting point, then the end point is one hundred and sixty kilometers away, on the side of the main water area of the Baoyun River."
"Therefore, the main body of the entire vine forest cave is almost 160 kilometers long, and it is buried more than 2,000 meters underground." In front, the light emitted by the golden stone shines on a stone stele, and there are four inscriptions on the stele, vine forest cave. Kong Ling was talking to Gu Xin while resting next to the stone stele, he was also a little tired after walking for so long.
Gu Xin was extremely speechless, "Is there anything wrong with our Sword Academy, let's take a test and let us take the test in a place more than 2,000 meters underground." ”
Kong Ling patted the stele with his hand, "Heh, I can't come if I usually think about it!" You see, seeing this kind of monument means that we have entered the core area of the vine forest cave, and there are many green vines inside! ”
Kong Ling's expression was slightly excited, in his eyes, the green vine was not just the test results, but also the money!
"Say Gu Xin. I didn't see how good you were! I can hold it up when I get here! Kong Ling smiled.
Gu Xin looked left and right, Kong Ling said this, he was in a Yuan Spirit Realm, of course he could hold on, and he didn't even feel tired.
Gu Xin asked, "We have been walking for so long since we left the Great Cave, and we haven't met any other disciples of the Sword Academy, Kong Ling, is this situation normal?" ”
Kong Ling was stunned, Gu Xin didn't mention him and really didn't pay attention, it had been so long since the two of them left the cave, and they hadn't even met a single disciple of the Sword Academy.
Kong Ling pondered, "According to my previous experience of entering the vine forest cave, I can't meet a few people in a day. However, at that time, the vine forest cave was open normally, and you needed to apply to enter, and there were few people inside. ”
"It's normal that I haven't seen anyone for two or three hours. Don't look at the stele here, in fact, there are many of this stele in the cave, and there is nothing special about this location. ”
Kong Ling walked to the back of the monument, "Come and see, there are numbers behind this monument, which were left by the teacher of the Sword Academy, so that we can find our way." The number of this tablet is 13. ”
Gu Xin walked over and took a look, and there was really a vague number thirteen behind the stone tablet.
Seeing this number, Gu Xin was also a lot more relieved, at least it represented that Kong Ling was not lost. After walking for so long, he didn't meet any other Sword Academy disciples, and Gu Xin thought that Kong Ling had already gotten lost.
Kong Ling rested by the stone tablet for two or three minutes, and seeing that Gu Xin was almost resting, he touched his clothes and found a flat animal skin water bag, "Are you thirsty?" Two bites? ”
"Wine?"
"Water."
"Then I'm not thirsty."
Kong Ling poured himself into two mouthfuls, and gradually became full of momentum, "Let's go, rest well, let's get rich!" The emerald ivy is here! Pick one and sell one, this trip is less to say earn a few hundred taels! ”
Gu Xin shook his head when he heard this, he was really a little curious, why did Kong Ling insist on selling the green vine for money.
Since Kong Ling is Mu Yuanxin, and his realm is stuck at the peak of the quadruple base, he is almost a foot in the door, so the green vines picked this time should be used up by himself in Gu Xin's opinion. Maybe with these emerald green vines, Kong Ling will be able to break through to the Yuan Spirit Realm! Breaking through to the Yuan Spirit Realm is not more important than selling a few hundred taels of silver?
What's more, even if you want to make money, the Yuan Spirit Realm is faster than the peak of the Quadruple Base to make money!
The two of them did not linger with the golden stone in their hands, left the No. 13 stone tablet, and continued to explore the cave.
There is no fork in the road in front of the No. 13 stele, there is only a narrow stone wall crack, the two of them pass through the gap one after the other, and soon, the afterglow of the golden light stone in their hands is blocked by the crack, and the small cave space where the No. 13 stele stands, returns to silence and darkness.
The No. 13 stele lost the light of the golden stone and stood alone on the ground.
Slowly.
It's gone.
It's not the kind that disappears in the blink of an eye, it's not the kind of illusion that disappears in an instant. Rather, slowly. It's gone.
After entering the core area marked by the digital stone tablet, the forks in the road began to become more numerous, and the number of emerald vines growing in the corresponding cave also increased significantly, and soon after, the two even found a small cave with water, which was full of emerald green vines, and there were eight of them, all full of juice!
Kong Ling happily plucked eight emerald green vines, and together with the one he picked earlier, he tied them into a bundle with the golden spider silk given by the Sword Academy, and carried them on his shoulders.
In Kong Ling's eyes, this was a rare piece of good luck, which immediately stimulated his desire to pick more verdant vines.
Gu Xin didn't think so, what rare good luck was not his "Heavenly Blessing" that had an impact. Because he knows that he has the blessing of "Heavenly Blessing, Blessing Qitian", Gu Xin knows very well that Kong Ling is definitely going to have a bumper harvest!
Sure enough, after the two of them left the small cave with water, they only walked a few steps, and they met a bunch of green vines!
A whole neat stone wall, creeping like hair, overgrown with thick arms, leafless emerald green vines! At a glance, there are one or two dozen emerald green vines full of juice!
"It's gone!!"
Kong Ling was excited, pulled out a knife, pounced on it, and frantically began to harvest the green vines. Gu Xin watched from the side, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Not to mention, I walked for most of the day before I picked a green vine, and now all of a sudden, I saw a whole stone wall overgrown! It's a real pleasure.
Ten minutes later.
Kong Ling carried twenty-four emerald green vines on his shoulders, his thin fingers were so thin, and his thick arms were so thick, and he walked to Gu Xin's side excitedly.
"Gu Xin, I haven't had such good luck in my life!" Kong Ling was so happy that he didn't bother to wipe the knife that cut the green vines, and directly inserted it into the scabbard.
Gu Xin looked at a large bundle of emerald green vines on Kong Ling's shoulder, and couldn't help but miss his previous life for a while. In my previous life, I could just find a magic weapon that could store things, and I could directly put all the green vines into it, where would I need Kong Ling to carry it so hard in person.
In other words, is this world a magic weapon without storage? There should be...... I heard that it is quite expensive, and even Gu Xin has such a prominent family background, and the family has never bought one to use.
"Kong Ling, are you okay?" Gu Xin looked at Kong Ling and suddenly asked.
"What's okay with me?" Kong Ling's expression was very excited.
Gu Xin pointed at Kong Ling's eyes, "Your eyes are a little red." Is it that the Yuan Force of the Yuan Heart can't keep up, and the poisonous gas of the green vine can't be dissolved? ”
Kong Ling's excited expression calmed down a little, and then waved his hand indifferently, "It's still early, it's only been a long time since I came in, I used to go into the cave and stay for a full day before going out!" I don't go to the rest point of the Great Cave. Besides, even you can hold it, how can I not hold it! ”
Gu Xin was helpless, of course he could hold on, he was the Yuan Spirit Realm!
At this time, Gu Xin did not intend to hide his true realm from Kong Ling.
He just left a layer of calculation in his heart - earlier, he had heard his name called out twice in succession. Gu Xin guessed that it was possible that Zhou Bao's people were secretly following him! I want to take the opportunity to take revenge on Qiao Ting for beating him in public a few days ago!
So hide your true realm now, maybe at a critical moment, there will be a surprise effect!
Kong Ling held the golden stone in one hand and tugged on Gu Xin's sleeve with the other, "Let's go, what are you doing in a daze, let's be lucky now, hurry up and continue to look for it!" If luck passes, you won't be able to find the green vine! ”
Gu Xin smiled, Kong Ling, you can rest assured, as long as I am here, there will definitely be more green vines......
"Gu Xin!"
Gu Xin instantly took out the Thunder Crying Stone that he had been holding in the palm of his hand.
In an instant, Yuan Li instantly activated the Thunder Crying Stone, and a bright silver light suddenly illuminated the entire cave!
Gu Xin's stern gaze swept around, and the ground was full of waste vines left by Kong Ling's picking of green vines just now. But beyond that, it's empty, nothing!
Gu Xin, once again heard someone calling his name!
Kong Ling beside him was taken aback, the light that erupted from the Thunder Crying Stone pierced his eyes, and he quickly covered his eyes with his arms, "Gu Xin, what are you doing?!" ”
After a few seconds, the light of the Thunder Crying Stone dimmed.
Gu Xin sneered, "He Fangxiao is small, hide in the corner of the pimple and call your grandfather and my name." You think you can scare me? If you have a kind, get out of here, and let me see which one of them wants to trouble me! ”
Kong Ling hurriedly lowered his arm, stood nervously beside Gu Xin, and also watched the surroundings with him, "Gu Xin, did you hear someone calling you again?" ”
"Hmm."
Kong Ling pulled out the knife that had just been inserted, "Dog, dare not do it!" What kind of hero is it to track and play yin! There's a kind of you standing up and fighting me! If you win, Lao Tzu will give you all the green vines! ”
Gu Xin glanced at Kong Ling and blocked him without a trace. If you really want to fight, just let Kong Ling run directly.
Don't look at Gu Xin, who has just broken through the Yuan Spirit, and he is still a miscellaneous Yuan Heart, relying on his rich combat experience, his true strength should be regarded as the top in the Yuan Spirit! Kong Ling, a quadruple base, really can't help him much!
"Come out!"
"Don't hide! If you have the guts, come out! Kong Ling roared loudly.
Minutes and seconds passed.
There was silence all around, except for the echo. No matter how you look at it, there is not half a figure around.
Five more minutes passed, and there was still no unusual sound. This complete silence even gave the two of them an intuition that there was indeed no one around.
Kong Ling turned his head with a complicated expression, "Gu Xin, you should really be hallucinating." The toxins of the emerald ivy are hard to prevent! This toxin affects the human spirit, and there is a possibility of auditory hallucinations! ”
Kong Ling's eyes looked towards the dark cave, and his eyes struggled for a moment, "I think I'll send you back to the big cave to rest first, you can pick the green vines at any time, send you back, I'll come here here and pick it slowly!" There are a lot of green vines here! ”
Gu Xin frowned.
Back to the Great Cave?
Although the smell of the emerald vines in this place was very sweet and greasy, and the toxins in the air were very strong, Gu Xin could guarantee that he was not hallucinating because of the toxins of the emerald green vines.
Gu Xin suddenly asked, "Kong Ling, are you sure that in the vine forest cave, there are only green vines, and there are absolutely no other creatures?" ”
Kong Ling shook his head, "Definitely not!" Tell me, what can survive under the influence of the toxins of the emerald ivy for a long time? The concentration of toxins in the depths of the vine forest cave can't even hold the teachers of the Sword Academy! ”
Gu Xin thought about it, and this is indeed the reason.
"Let's continue picking the green vines, I'm not hallucinating." Gu Xindao.
Since he was sure that there were no other creatures in the vine forest cave, only emerald vines, on the premise that Gu Xin was sure that he was not hallucinating, there was no need to go back to the big cave.
He wanted to see which turtle disciple in the Sword Courtyard was hiding around and calling his name coldly!
Kong Ling was very serious, "Are you sure you won't go back?" ”
"Not going back."
"Where...... I can't drag you back either. ”
Kong Ling hesitated for a while and decided to continue to take Gu Xin to pick green vines.
