Chapter 247: Making Secret Stones

The so-called ghost cave is nothing more than the entrance to the eye of fire, and when Yingzheng was in Lishan, he didn't know how many times he entered.

But when standing at the door of the ghost cave in front of him, Yingzheng's feeling was really different.

Because in this ghost cave, it is a place that the ghost cave people have carefully built to make dense stones, and it is also the place where the ghost hands in front of them are proud.

At this time, I saw the eight ghost hands guarding the door of the ghost cave take two steps forward at the same time, leaned over and said, "See the patriarch."

Wu Chan bowed his head lightly and said, "You don't need to be polite. The one next to this patriarch is the Great Qin Monarch I mentioned yesterday, and this time, he is here to ask for our help."

The eight ghost hands turned around at the same time, and they also bowed their heads and saluted, "I've seen King Qin."

"Ying Zheng has seen all the seniors." Ying Zheng hurriedly returned the salute, his expression and tone were quite respectful.

Wu Chan took a few steps closer and said to one of the ghost hands at the head, "Uncle Thumb, are you ready?"

Thumb??

It's a kind of interesting name.

The ghost hand, known as Thumb, said, "Everything is ready to go."

"Hmm." Wu Chan nodded, turned his head and said to Ying Zheng, "This ghost hand is the leader here, nicknamed Thumb, and he is fully responsible for the safety of King Qin this time."

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, then looked at his thumb, and said again, "Ying Zheng has seen the thumb senior."

"Hehe, King Qin is polite, just call my thumb." Thumb smiled very casually.

It seems that the name of the elite person is not very important.

"Then since there are no outsiders, you are also called widows, oh, just call me Yingzheng." Ying Zheng said.

"Me?" Wu Chan looked at Ying Zheng, and didn't seem to understand too much.

"Hehe, now in Daqin, I am a self-proclaimed, and the widow has replaced my character with it." Ying Zheng explained.

"Oh." Wu Chan grinned, "The essence of the people to learn the Huaxia language, originally to communicate with you conveniently, because there are too many people of all races in the city, sometimes it is also used as a code language, since Daqin has changed the rules, then the essence will naturally follow, and in the future, we will all call ourselves me."

"Yes, Patriarch." Zhehuai, and the eight ghost hands responded in unison.

"Okay, now that we're ready, let's go now." After Wu Chan gave the order, he turned his head to Ying Zheng and said, "Brother Ying, you will follow Uncle Thumb and walk at the end, and he will explain this way to you."

Brother Ying?

Ying Zhengchang is so big, it is the first time that someone calls him that.

However, it feels very comfortable, and it also invisibly shortens the distance between the two people.

"Okay, where are you going?" Ying Zheng asked.

"I'm ......," Uzen seemed to try to use the title, "next to you, of course."

"Hehe, okay." Ying Zheng replied with a smile.

"Let's put on the ice silk cloak first." Uzen said as he took his package off his shoulder and opened it.

Ying Zheng also opened his package, and the ice silk clothes presented in front of him were indeed the same as its name, white as snow and cold as ice.

In the extreme silkiness of the tentacles, there is also a slight chill.

Clothes, pants, shoes, gloves, head coverings, you name it.

The most interesting thing is the hood, which seems to have two grease stains on the eye area, which should be used to watch the road.

Ying Zheng put the hood on his head, tried it, and looked at the outside through these two oil stains, which were quite blurry, but not so much that he couldn't see things at all, as if the oil stains were specially prepared.

"Huh." Wu Chan covered his mouth and smiled, "I haven't seen anyone who doesn't put on clothes first, but wears a hood first."

Ying Zheng quickly took off his hood and muttered, "Didn't I try to see it?"

"Alright, let's put it on." Wu Chan urged while wearing an ice silk robe.

Ying Zheng responded, and then put the ice silk suit

Wear it on your own one by one

body.

"This dress is mainly used to keep out the heat, right?" Ying Zheng asked.

"Of course, but it's usually only used when the ghost hands are working with lava, and we'll probably get close this time, so it's best to be fully armed." Uzen said.

After a while, everyone was dressed, everyone lit a torch, and began to enter the ghost cave one after another.

said that it was a ghost cave, but in fact it was just a name, and it was not so scary, and Ying Zheng did not have the slightest worry in his heart, after all, sitting in Candle Jiuyou's stomach had already swam in the red stream, and he could still be afraid of the heat in front of him?

However, it is better to be obedient, and whatever Wu Chan says, he will do as he is.

By the light of the fire, Ying Zheng carefully observed this ghost cave.

I saw that this ghost cave is quite strange, in the position of waist with people, there seems to be a dividing line, the cave is divided into two layers, the rock layer above is lighter in color, belongs to the color of normal rock, and there are traces of artificial polishing.

The rock formations below are dark in color, and there are wave-like stripes on the ground, as if they have been washed by the current.

Ying Zheng opened his mouth, and was about to ask something, but he held back.

"Most of the ghost caves are washed out of magma, so in terms of structure, they may be different from ordinary caves." The thumb on the side seemed to see Ying Zheng's doubts and explained to him.

"No wonder it's weird in this hole." Ying Zheng said.

"Well, getting the magma to flow from the eye of the fire to the designated location is the hardest step in the whole process." Thumb said.

Come to think of it, it is not easy to build dams and canals for rivers, let alone the scorching magma.

After passing through a straight section, the direction of the cave begins to descend and twists and turns.

After a while, everyone came to a cave with a larger space.

And this place turned out to be a rather busy scene, and some ghost hands were working here.

In the middle, there is a large box, which seems to be wrapped in cotton, and the material inside is not visible.

In a clearing next to it, some people seemed to be spinning, and some people seemed to be feeding ice Gu.

"This place is a temporary space for feeding ice Gu." Uzen said.

"Can I see what the Ice Gu looks like?" Ying Zheng's tone was full of curiosity.

"You can see them, but you can't touch them." Wu Chan admonished.

"yes, okay." Ying Zheng nodded and said.

Wu Chan and Thumb took Ying Zheng to the ghost hand who was feeding the ice Gu.

In front of this ghost hand was a rather simple wooden box, which was still covered with a thick layer of cotton, and on top of the cotton, there were several snow-white things lying lazily, which looked similar to silkworms, but they were larger than the size of silkworms.

"This is the Ice Gu?" Through the hood, it was a little difficult to see, so Ying Zheng simply took off the hood and leaned down to observe it carefully.

"That's right, this is Ice Gu." Thumb said, "In the entire world, there are probably only ice Gu that can only be found in the essence."

Wu Chan probably also wanted to breathe, so he also took off his hood and said, "Don't talk about ice Gu, even if it is an ordinary Gu, there are fewer and fewer in the world. This Ice Gu is cold all over, it can survive in magma, and the sap it spits out, if it is smeared on ordinary rocks, can not be afraid of the high temperature of magma."

Of course, Ying Zheng understands this, Ji Fa said that the abilities of Ice Gu and Candle Jiuyou are very similar.

"That's why we've been using this method to carry the lava and make the pipes to transport the lava." Thumb also took off the hood and added.

Ying Zheng said thoughtfully, "It doesn't sound difficult, but the process must be complicated, right?"

"Well, it's a little more complicated, but when you're proficient, you don't feel like anything." Thumb said.

There is no rush to this point, because

For Ying Zheng to see it in a while, he looked at the leaves placed next to the Ice Gu and asked, "This Ice Gu

What do you eat? Do you eat only leaves?"

"Hehe, this ice Gu, as long as it's green, it can eat anything, it's not much different from cattle and sheep." Thumb said.

"And will they spit into a cocoon?" Ying Zheng asked.

"It's okay to spin silk, but it won't form calluses, and it won't change its posture." Thumb said.

"Oh." Ying Zheng's gaze was still staring at the Ice Gu, "That's still not the same as silkworms."

"Of course, Gu is Gu, silkworm is silkworm." Wu Chan pouted and said, "Wolves and dogs also look alike, but they are not the same after all."

What he said made Ying Zheng unable to refute it.

"You must be very, good, for this unique thing, don't ask, don't ask."

Wu Chan grinned and said, "Actually, even if you tell you, it's useless, and you can't support it."

Ying Zheng shrugged his shoulders and said, "Of course I know this, so from the beginning, I borrowed a ghost hand from you, not this ice Gu."

Thumb frowned, looking at Wuzen with a puzzled expression, but he didn't say anything.

Wu Chan also looked at his thumb at the same time and said, "It depends on whether Uncle Thumb wants to go or not."

"To China?" Thumb asked.

"Well, King Qin needs a few ghost hands to go to Huaxia with him, and make a secret stone in the fire eye there." Uzen said, "Uncle Thumb, do you want to go by yourself, or do you want to send other ghost hands?"

Thumb pondered for a moment and said, "This matter needs to be discussed with the brothers before making a decision."

"Okay, let's move on." Uchan put the hood on his head again.

"Yes." Thumb turned to the other ghost hands and said, "Keep going."

Ying Zheng looked at the hood in his hand, but he didn't put it on immediately, and followed Wu Chan into a hole at the other end.

"Why don't you put it on?" Wu Chan asked with some concern.

"Well, I'd like to take a closer look at the environment." Ying Zheng dared to say that it was because it was really uncomfortable.

"There's a real ghost cave ahead, so if you can't stand the heat, put it on." Uzen said.

"Well, I remember."

The group continued in the direction of the Eye of Fire, and the passage here was much smoother than the one they had come before.

After a while, the crowd came to a rectangular open area.

In the middle, there are two rock pools made of rock, and wisps of heat can be seen rising from them.

On the side, several ghost hands are working together to turn an axle connected to a mechanism behind the rock pool.

Underneath each pool, there are four tiny crevices from which fiery red magma is slowly flowing into the specially made pipes below.

At the end of the pipe were square, hollow stones, and the magma that flowed down was flowing into the stones.

It can be seen that this stone must have served as a mold, and when the magma inside cools, it will condense into dense stone.

Ying Zheng had imagined the process of making secret stones more than once, and the scene in front of him was basically not much different from his guess.

"They're making secret stone?" Ying Zheng asked.

"Not bad." Thumb said, "This is the place where the secret stone is forged, if the King of Qin has any opinion, please give me some advice."
