Chapter 131: The Secret of the Dry Well
"Ahem, cough, cough~"
"This wind and sand is too big!"
Lisao scolded and patted the dust on his body, leaned against the wall and exhaled deeply.
And Lichen next to him seemed to have something else thinking.
"The Secret Land of Huanhua."
This is the name that the little monk Ying Hui shouted out when the Liuyun Feizhou disintegrated.
What he meant was probably to let everyone meet in the 'Huanhua Secret Realm'.
Being able to shout this name at the moment when the big ship barrier collapsed showed that the little monk Ying Hui was still familiar with this place.
From the time he stepped on the Liuyun Flying Boat, Lichen guessed that nine times out of ten, the Landa Temple was hidden in the Xunhuang between the wilderness and the Kun wilderness.
I didn't expect to be guessed by myself.
"If 'Huanhua Secret Realm' is the name of the place, then how should we find it?" Outside the mountain wall, half of his head was exposed.
The wind was only much stronger than before, and even the gray fog was getting heavier.
Li Chen's brows furrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Master Ying Hui is probably familiar here, so he can say this name at the last moment. ”
"Moreover, there is a good chance that this 'Huanhua Secret Realm' is nearby."
Thinking of this, Lichen directly took out a beast control card and released Hai Dongqing.
Wow~
A clear chirp resounded through the sky.
The snow covered with only one wing, and it was already behind the mountain wall.
And for a moment, Lichen's mind showed a different appearance.
The wind is a burden for the Liuyun Flying Boat, but for Hai Dongqing, it can only make it fly faster and faster.
Soon it lit up from the dust, and sure enough, in the gray fog, Hai Dongqing saw farther.
Even three or four miles south of the stone wall, a few rare figures flashed by.
At that moment, Lichen didn't hesitate, quickly pulled up Lisao, and walked in that direction against the wind and dust.
Because it was getting late and the gray fog covered the sky, the two could only grope their way forward.
But what makes people feel even more strange is that just now I saw a figure walking by, but now there is nothing in front of me.
"Strange."
"Am I mistaken?"
Lichen subconsciously looked around.
It's still foggy, and it's not real.
So where did the figure you saw in the snow just come from?
Lichen thought carefully, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
I saw a clear footprint on the ground.
The Sundar has been covered in gray fog for a long time, and it is difficult for sunlight to shine in, so there is not much vegetation here.
But there is always a layer of fresh dust on the ground.
As long as you walk through, you will leave footprints.
Over time, new dust will cover the footprints again.
But at this moment, the footprints in front of me are unusually clear, which means that someone has indeed walked through here just now.
The two of them were overjoyed when they saw this, and hurriedly followed the traces on the ground and searched for it.
After about a cup of tea, the two stood in front of a dry well and looked at each other.
The footprints just now came to an abrupt end when they reached this point.
"Impossible, why did the footprints disappear all of a sudden?" Lisao circled around the dry well and made sure there was no trace of it.
He couldn't help but touch his bald head with a puzzled face: "Could it be that he went to heaven?" ”
Lichen looked at the dry well and thought thoughtfully.
The edge of this dry well is more than three feet above the ground, and the whole body is made of hard rock.
Suddenly, his heart moved, and he immediately chuckled: "It is unlikely to go to the sky, but it is very possible to go to the ground." ”
"Down to the ground?"
Lisao was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked towards the bottom of the well, but only saw a black patch.
"Senior brother, what do you mean...... They went to the bottom of the well? ”
Lichen nodded, and in Lisao's puzzled gaze, he stretched out a finger and rubbed it lightly on the edge of the well.
Just a thin layer of dust on your fingertips.
What does this mean?
It shows that there are people wiping it down often, or people passing by it often.
Lisao was stunned when he heard this: "Living under the well?!" ”
Lichen nodded, and explained without curiosity: "Just now, we walked all the way, and the surrounding wasteland was full of weeds. ”
"Didn't even see half a house.
On the contrary, we have only walked a few miles, but we have seen three dry wells. ”
"Every once in a while, you can see a dry well.
The point is, every dry well here is similar to the one in front of you. ”
"The most curious thing is that dry wells are supposed to be used to draw water before they dry up.
However, above the wellheads, there were no water tools such as wheels.
There is no trace of any use on the edge of the well. ”
"And it's strange that these wells are piling up again."
Lisao subconsciously groped for a while, and then nodded.
"Since it's a well, it should have been used before the water dried up.
However, there is no trace of any use of these dry wells in front of him. ”
"Suspicious indeed."
Lichen pointed to the gray mist in the sky and speculated: "On the other hand, the dust here is very large, and if you build a house on the ground, it will inevitably be invaded by dust. ”
"But if you live underground, then it makes sense."
Lisao nodded, and suddenly realized: "It is worthy of being a senior brother." ”
"So nine times out of ten, they're living in the well."
"But how are we going to get in?"
"Just jump?"
Hearing this, Lichen shook his head, raised an arm, and the next moment a group of second-generation blood-winged demon mosquitoes swarmed into the dry well.
After about a few breaths, Lichen received feedback.
Sure enough, it was just as I guessed!
Don't hesitate at the moment, jump straight down.
After a few seconds of free fall, Lichen's feet were stunned and he had stepped on the bottom of the well.
From the bottom of the well to the mouth of the well, the ground under his feet is hard, and it is obvious that the well itself is camouflaged.
Directly in front of him, there was a passage more than one person high, and at the end of the passage a surging light could be seen.
Seeing this, Lichen's eyes lit up, and there was really something else here.
At the moment, he let go of the bottom of the well, stood sideways in the passage, and motioned for Lisao to jump down.
only listened to the muffled sound of 'winter', and Lisao successfully landed.
The two of them walked along the passage, one after the other.
After walking some distance, the two came to the other side of the passage.
Lichen looked in along the passage, and there was a long and narrow staircase in front of him.
Descending the steps, the scene in front of them surprised the two.
Rows of buildings, crowds of people.
There was a lot of traffic in the past, and even the noisy sound of selling.
What a thriving scene!
The two looked at each other and looked at each other.
Originally, I thought that there was darkness and silence at the bottom of the well, but now there is not only no gloom and dead silence, but four walls, emitting surging fluorescence.
It's underground, but it's brighter than the outside world.
Li Chen curiously took a closer look, and it turned out that there was a layer of white moss growing on the stone wall, and all the light was emitted by this moss.
