Chapter 118: The Bottom of the Cliff

Song Shiyin seized the time to breathe, and there was still a dull pain in the meridians, but as the aura gradually recovered, the pain was gradually decreasing.

Her eyes were closed, her legs crossed, and her whole body was immersed in it.

An hour later, Song Shiyin slowly exhaled a breath, her body felt full again, her aura returned, and she stood up.

Zhuo Guang was a little farther away from her at this time, and he could only see a figure slightly, and Song Shiyin walked in his direction.

There was not much snow at the bottom of the cliff, only a few parts were spread on the dead branches and leaves, and Song Shiyin stepped on it and made a creaking sound.

Zhuo Guang turned his head and saw that Song Shiyin's complexion was much better, nodded and said, "It's much better?"

"It's recovered, can Brother Zhuo gain anything?"

Zhuo Guang sighed and said, "No."

"We're all in this together."

Song Shiyin and Zhuo Guang began to look for a way out.

Her gaze followed the mountain in front of her all the way up, and there was no end in sight to the naked eye, only a small black dot far away.

Then she shifted her gaze downward, surrounded by a few dead trees, which looked old, their branches bent and drooping downward.

It's a barren place.

Song Shiyin walked around the mountain to the right, and during this time, several dead trees appeared one after another, which looked to be the same variety as the previous ones.

It's just that these dead branches can bear spiritual fruits? If not, where did Zhuo Guang get the spiritual fruit that Zhuo Guang gave her before?

Song Shiyin temporarily suppressed the doubts in her heart, and she walked forward, observing the surroundings until she finished a circle and met Zhuo Guang.

"It seems that there is only one way out?" Song Shiyin frowned, and said in an uncertain tone.

"So it seems to be the case for now." Zhuo Guang sighed and nodded.

Song Shiyin raised his head again, the mountain in front of him was snow-white, and there was no road where it could be seen by the naked eye, except for a piece of white snow, which was glowing ice.

Not to mention such a high height, whether the spiritual power of the two of them can hold up, the mountain is smooth and there is no place to stay, and the temperature is very cold, which is the most hindering to them.

"You said before, the way you came, where was that?" Song Shiyin thought for a moment and suddenly thought of this.

"Follow me."

Song Shiyin and Zhuo Guang walked forward one after the other, and the place Zhuo Guang said was not far away, behind a dead tree.

"There was a hole in the ground before, and when I came out, the exit disappeared in an instant." As he spoke, Zhuo Guang lifted the hem of his clothes and squatted down.

Song Shiyin stood beside him, looking down.

Zhuoguang swept away the surrounding leaves and dead branches with his hands, and the ground below was smooth and level.

"It doesn't look like there's a hole in the ground."

Zhuo Guang didn't speak, only swept away the surrounding leaves a little more, and Song Shiyin saw that it was abnormal.

In contrast, one side is flat, the other is uneven, one side is gray ink, the other side is tan, one side is hard and cold to the touch, and the other side is compacted earth.

Zhuo Guang moved all the surrounding leaves to the side, revealing a large clearing, so that he could see the edge of the hole.

The hole is not large, only the size of one person to pass through, and the edges are very regular and round, and the lines are smooth, which is obviously not naturally formed.

"This may be the only way we can get out." After thinking about it again and again, Song Shiyin gave a conclusion.

It was not realistic to climb directly into the snowy mountains, and this cave was the only clue they knew so far.

"Brother Zhuo, tell me about what happened when this cave disappeared."

Zhuo Guang got up and said, "I was injured at the time, I just wanted to leave quickly, and when I saw the light ahead, I kept walking forward."

"After I came out, I looked back and realized that this was actually a hole in the ground, and it was at this moment that a white light flashed at the entrance of the cave, and it disappeared in an instant, leaving only a flat land."

"The dead leaves on here must have only fallen in the past few days.

Hearing this, Song Shiyin frowned, it sounded like the closure of the cave was only because Zhuo Guang left.

So what should I do if I want to open it again?

In a flash of inspiration, Song Shiyin had a somewhat absurd idea.

Since leaving will be closed, will entering, will it be opened?

Just thinking about it, Song Shiyin walked slowly and stepped on the flat ground with both feet.

said that it was too late, and the moment she stepped on it, the ground began to tremble violently, Song Shiyin didn't react, her feet were unstable, and her whole body began to shake.

Zhuo Guang's pupils on the side shrank, and he quickly held Song Shiyin's arm, pulled it hard, and brought it to his side.

"Thank you." Song Shiyin didn't look back, her attention was on the trembling ground at this time.

The ground hummed, and the dead leaves fluttered on the side.

In the middle of the night, the gray inky flat ground disappeared, leaving only an empty hole.

"Let's go." Song Shiyin and Zhuo Guang glanced at each other, and both of them were a little incredulous in their eyes.

The hole opened like this?

But this is not the time to doubt, what is inside, what is there, you have to go in to find out.

Song Shiyin and Zhuo Guang approached the entrance of the cave, Zhuo Guang went down first, he jumped over, and with a bang, he successfully fell to the ground.

"Come down, there's nothing going on underground." Zhuoguang's voice rang out from below the entrance of the cave.

Song Shiyin's feet also landed smoothly.

This hole is not big, and the faint light that penetrates through the hole is enough to light up the entire hole.

Several walls were of the same material as the entrance to the ground, but in front of them, there was a pitch-black door.

Chain after chain was wrapped around the door, covering almost the entire door.

Song Shiyin got closer, and through the light, there was not the slightest pattern on the door, and the material was only the most ordinary wood, without the slightest aura.

As for this chain, Song Shiyin pinched it, just the fact that she held it up was enough to feel the weight.

"Brother Zhuo, when you came, did you have this door?" Song Shiyin turned his head and asked.

Zhuo Guang stood behind her, he thought for a moment, and said, "No."

"This cave is not the same as the one I came from."

As soon as he said this, Song Shiyin understood, they were afraid that they had entered a new place, and they didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse.

As soon as the chain was pulled, there was a clattering sound, and the chain fell to the ground with strength, and at the same time, the door slowly opened, revealing the dark space inside.

"Let's go." Zhuo Guang walked in first, followed by Song Shiyin.

This space was very dark, a little damp, and cold, and Song Shiyin couldn't help but tighten the clothes on his body.

"Brother Zhuo?" It was so dark that Song Shiyin couldn't see the people around her, so she screamed.

"I'm here." Zhuo Guang approached her, reached out, and gently tugged at her sleeve.

In such a dark environment, having a companion by his side made Song Shiyin's heart feel a lot more relaxed, and he was no longer so nervous.

With no light at all, making their movements very difficult, Zhuo Guang took out a fire talisman from the storage bag, and the talisman burned in the air, bringing a moment of light.

In front of them was a staircase, spiraling upward, built around the walls around them, and there was only one way.

Zhuo Guang pulled Song Shiyin and moved forward little by little, moving his steps.

"Be careful, you're going up." Zhuo Guang said.

Song Shiyin nodded, and then she remembered that she couldn't see her nodding at this time, so she answered again.

She lifted her right foot and probed the ground until she could touch the edge of the next staircase, and then she followed the direction and stepped on it.

The stairs are very wide, and the two of them can go up together and accommodate the bottom.

They ascended the stairs, winding and circling around the mountain.

I don't know how long I walked, and in the dark, time seemed to pass slowly.

Song Shiyin gasped slightly, adjusted his posture, and continued to slowly climb up as before.

I don't know if she was a little nervous, there was always an itching sensation coming from the back of her hand, Song Shiyin shook her hand a few times, but there was no relief.

She had no choice but to stretch out her left hand, but as soon as her hand covered her right hand, she sensed that something was wrong.

She has something on her right hand!

Song Shiyin's heart tightened and stopped.

"What's wrong?" Zhuoguang asked.

"There's a problem here."

As he spoke, Song Shiyin's fingertips swept through his wrist, little by little, towards the fingers, and the back of his hand began to itch.

And she finally touched the foreign object.

The appearance is soft and long, and with Song Shiyin's movements, there is also a feeling of squirming and crawling on his hands.

Song Shiyin guessed that it should be a reptile.

Instead of throwing the reptile down, she took out the fire charm from the storage bag with her left hand.

The flames burned, and both of them saw the situation at this time.

On the back of Song Shiyin's right hand, there is a white reptile, section by section, about the length and width of a thumb, lying quietly on it, with its body slightly undulating.

"It turned out to be a reptile." Song Shiyin was a little relieved.

But before she could take a breath, her pupils suddenly shrank, and her eyes widened in shock.

It's just because, when she said this, she turned her head to look at Zhuo Guang.

Zhuo Guang's body was already crawling with insects, except for his head, but he didn't realize it, and still looked at Song Shiyin worriedly.

"Brother Zhuo......

Song Shiyin wanted to say something, but he paused again.

She suddenly remembered that she could see Zhuo Guang, and Zhuo Guang couldn't see her, would her situation be different at this time?

Not necessarily.

Just thinking about it, Song Shiyin felt something strange at the spiritual root, she checked it silently, and found that there was a layer of pure white gas on it, and she was trying to enter.

The spiritual root is the foundation of a monk's cultivation, and if it is damaged, the consequences will be unimaginable.

In an instant, Song Shiyin realized that it was these reptiles who made the ghosts, but fortunately, her spiritual root was fake.

Song Shiyin took out a talisman again, she hadn't been able to identify it carefully before, but she could see it clearly at this time.

"This insect is a snow-like worm, it likes darkness and moisture, and it only appears in cold places, and the poisonous gas released can damage the spiritual root, and its weakness is also obvious, and it is afraid of fire."

"I don't know how many snow-like bugs there are here, we can't stay here for long." Song Shiyin said solemnly.

The insects had already crawled on them, and Song Shiyin's right hand was already red and swollen, corroded by poisonous gas.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuo Guang took Song Shiyin's arm with one hand, and kept throwing fire talismans into the air with the other.

With the light of this flame, Zhuo Guang pulled Song Shiyin up quickly.

The fire was the first to ignite above Song Shiyin's head, and the sporadic firelight fell, and the snow-like insects lying on her shoulders jumped down one after another because of fear.

In an instant, Song Shiyin felt a lot more relaxed.

The fire was scorching and crackling, and the air was filled with the smell of burning, masking the smell of poisonous gas.

Song Shiyin thought that they would be able to go all the way up smoothly like this, but they didn't expect an accident to happen suddenly.

The fire charm burned out.

The stairs up were too long, and the fire talismans they had prepared were exhausted, and the surroundings were once again plunged into complete darkness.

On the instep, through the boots, Song Shiyin could feel the snow-like insects wriggling and crawling.

"Thanks to Baozi's support, I have broken through from zero to a hehehehe, I will work hard!"
