Volume 1 Chapter 45: The Secret of the Stone

After learning that the stone was soft, I didn't continue to suspect that there was something wrong with the stones on the mountain wall, but I just thought it was strange.

It was this preconceived notion that made me wonder about these stones for a long time, but they were even more terrifying than they looked.

Yes, at that time, I saw that the hole that Dawu had dug earlier had disappeared, and the stone wall next to the stone gate had returned to its original state, and the rubble seemed to have filled in the pit we had dug by itself.

The reason why I felt that something was wrong just now was that the pit was slowly recovering, but because it wasn't particularly fast, if I didn't keep staring at it, I would hardly notice it.

But now that the whole pit has been filled, I have finally discovered this strange phenomenon.

At this time, I also reacted, the stone wall that appeared out of thin air was not something soft, let alone built by someone, but these special stones were glued together by themselves and formed a stone wall on their own.

These inanimate stones seemed extremely strange to me at the moment, and I was encased in this strangeness.

After a long time, I recovered from the shock and complicated emotions, sat on the ground, and said in despair: "Dawu, don't dig it, it's useless...."

Dawu was still digging hard with his back to me, not noticing my strangeness, he replied casually: "What's useless? Third Master Qiu, it's almost dug through, you pay attention to lighting candles, if you extinguish it, you can say it quickly. ”

I smiled bitterly, directly extinguished the candle, and said again: "Dawu, you stop for a while, listen to me..."

At this time, Dawu finally stopped what he was doing, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and asked with some complaint: "Third master, we can't stop anymore, we have been delayed a lot of time when we first came down, and the second master doesn't know where it is now, we have to leave here quickly to find the second master." ”

I didn't answer Dawu, just pointed to him where the earliest pit was dug on the opposite side, Dawu glanced at it, obviously hadn't reacted yet, and asked me what was wrong.

"You're the most digging.... What about the pit? ”

Suddenly, Da Wu froze in place, looking at it in a daze, I knew that he had reacted.

Dawu stood there for a long time without moving, his eyes did not blink, I didn't bother him, anyway, he couldn't get out, and then he was in a daze or sleeping, it won't be long before we starved to death and died of thirst here, and after a few years, it will also become the same as the woman and human skeleton we saw before.

"Third Master.... This, what's going on? Why is the pit gone? ”

"Hehe, that's why I said there's no need to dig it, we'll never be able to dig through here, these stones seem to have the ability to heal themselves, you dig them up, it won't take long for them to heal again..... The wall that suddenly appeared behind us was glued together by the rubble I had piled up, so it's no wonder I didn't notice it at the time. ”

Dawu threw away the sapper shovel in his hand and sat down next to me, his face fading.

"What the hell is this place, broken stones can still glue themselves, this trip to Wulong Mountain is to see all the strange things..... If you want me to say that this six-fingered clan is really powerful, where did they find these secret techniques and secret objects? ”

In Xiangxi, witchcraft and Gu art have been passed down from generation to generation from a very early dynasty. And the Six-Fingered Clan has always lived deep in the mountains of Xiangxi, and they are so rich that it can be said that it is easy to invite wizards and Gu magicians outside.

There are many of them, and all kinds of secret techniques will appear in this mountain, and they use all these secret techniques on how to hide the clan site, and once we ordinary people enter here, we will unknowingly enter the trap.

Irritability and despair make me jealous and irritable, and I can't get out of this place even if I want to break my head, I really don't want to die in this place.

There are strange stones all around us, blocking all our way out, and no matter how much we dig it, it will always heal.

For a long time, neither of us spoke again, and I never gave up thinking of a way out. Since there is a stone gate here, there must be a way to get out, otherwise what is the meaning of its existence?

But in fact, this stone gate is not necessarily a clue, what if this was once a large cave here, and this stone door is only the only thing that these strange stones are not healing and swallowed by the way?

Thinking of this, I frowned, I haven't seen the process of these stones regluing themselves with my own eyes now.

I shoveled a few pieces of gravel down and set them aside, all the while watching how it ended up sticking back together.

The process was not slow, and the two pieces of gravel were gradually drawn together like magnets under my gaze. As they came together, they gradually stuck together, like some kind of fluid.

In this way, the full fusion fills the gaps between them, and then a large stone is formed.

To be honest, as I watched the two pieces of gravel gradually glue together, my worldview was refreshed, and I seriously suspected that it wasn't stone at all. If it's really a stone, why does it look so soft when it is glued together?

If I have a chance to get out of here alive, I must bring a stone and take it to the relevant departments when I go out of the mountain in the future, and this must not shock the society?

Immediately afterward, I tried to place half of the candle between two pieces of rubble, and found that the stone would wrap the candle directly and reglue it together.

"Oh my day, is this okay?" Dawu also observed this scene with me, he raised his eyebrows and looked at the surrounding mountain walls and said, "Third Master, will there be other things in the walls around here, but they are all swallowed up by these things?" ”

"It's not impossible .... This stone gate stands here, but these stones cannot engulf it, indicating that these strange stones are also taboo. Maybe the location we are in now turned out to be a cavern, just like the one we found earlier with a burial pit, but now there is only one stone door standing here. ”

I immediately had a new idea, since these stones can't swallow the stone gate standing here, can we use this stone gate to prevent these stones from healing again, and then continue digging tunnels to get out of here?

According to my estimation, this stone gate should be granite, and it is almost impossible for me and Dawu to get a piece of it, and it is difficult for granite to be broken without professional tools.

"Third master, we can use a knife to scrape the stone powder on this stone gate, and then dig a pit while sprinkling the stone powder on these stones, will they not be able to stick together?"
