Chapter 363: It's Too Evil
As for what exactly this reason is, they still need to explore it slowly in the future.
Perhaps, the secret of this has something to do with the subject about the nature of the world that Master gave him.
"Make bold assumptions, be careful to verify, as long as we are still exploring, these secrets will be known sooner or later, let's go in and see."
As he spoke, Jiang Bai took the lead in entering the ruins.
Albedo smiled.
As Jiang Bai said, as long as he is alive, he will always complete the tasks assigned to him by his master.
It doesn't matter if it's 10 years, 100 years, or 1,000
He'll always figure out the secrets.
Jiang Bai took Albedo to the place where Hu Tao had encountered the corpse puppet, and the former mausoleum had completely collapsed, completely revealing the bottomless underground cracks below.
Standing on the edge of the crack, looking at the huge underground canyon whose length and width are unknown, Jiang Bai sighed:
"I just fell down last time, got lost in it, couldn't find my way back, and found the palace by mistake, and I really won't be able to find it again."
Albedo wasn't worried, "It's okay, I brought a finger compass and looked for it in one direction and one direction, as long as I was willing to take the time, I could always find it." ”
The last thing he lacks is time.
"That's right, but I can't stay in there for long."
Born as a part-time worker in the Afterlife Hall, even if he has no business to run, but if he doesn't show up for too long, his hall master will be angry.
"Well, so am I." Albedo, who had Klee to take care of, was deeply touched.
If Klee hadn't been able to find him for too long, I don't know what I'd be worried about.
"We can explore in three days, one direction at a time, and we can even map down the places we have explored, so that we can find our way back."
"No problem." Jiang Bai took out the Quartet Warp Instrument, and the usual Quartet Warp Instrument was a compass that indicated the direction.
For the sake of safety, Jiang Bai compared his Quartet Sutra with Albedo's compass, and was relieved after confirming that the north was in the same direction.
Jiang Bai pointed to the west, "Let's go in this direction first, I feel that it should be in this direction." ”
"Hmm."
The two of them hung a lumen stone for lighting around their waists and took out a pen and paper.
The crack was wide, and the two of them flew against the stone wall on one side as they drew the suggested map.
There is the light of the lumenstone, but there is no need to worry about getting scattered.
I don't know how long I flew, Jiang Bai landed on a rock to rest, and shouted at Albedo, "Did you find anything over there?" ”
"Nope. I feel like we've gotten at least five thousand meters. ”
What is the concept of 5 kilometers? If you walk, you should walk for at least an hour.
At such a distance, this Grand Canyon has not yet reached the end.
"I don't feel right, I shouldn't have flown this far last time."
Jiang Bai flew with Hu Tao last time, even with the assistance of the wind element, he couldn't keep it at a height all the time, and he had already fallen below the canyon after gliding at such a distance.
"That could be that we're going in the wrong direction." Albedo's response came from afar.
Because of the distance, Jiang Bai could no longer see Albedo's figure clearly, and could only see the light emitted by the lumen stone on his waist, like a large firefly.
"Take a break, we'll finish this exploration and then turn around."
"Okay."
This huge underground crack is not all the same width, some places are wide, some places are narrow, and it is very irregular.
The two of them spent three days exploring both ends of the underground crack, and they didn't see a shadow of the palace at all.
It's as if that palace never existed.
"This is too evil, isn't it?" Jiang Bai was puzzled.
Why is such a big palace gone?
He took out the photos he took with Hu Tao in the palace, the photos are still there, and the pictures in them are real, but the palace is gone!
Albedo was also puzzled, but the existence of leylines was not inexplicable.
He proposes a hypothesis:
"Is it possible that the palace you saw was just a brief projection of the leylines, and when the leyline fluctuations subsided, that projection disappeared......"
Jiang Bai scratched his hair and was very irritable.
The leylines of the earth, the leylines are really omnipotent!
He could be sure that the voice was coming at him, and maybe the palace was also influenced by him to appear there, but could that voice control the leylines?
Or was it used to get that palace out in some other way?
"It seems that there is no chance to find that place, so I can only put it aside for the time being." Albedo was not too discouraged.
It's normal to encounter difficulties, after all, the search for secrets is not easy.
The two of them sat by the fire at the bottom of the canyon, the temperature in the canyon was relatively low, and Albedo fiddled with the flames to make the fire burn stronger.
"There should be a silver-white ancient tree around here, I saw a big spider living near the silver-white ancient tree before, this spider tastes very good, I will catch one and give you a taste."
Hearing that the taste was very good, Jiang Bai's eyes lit up after rubbing it.
"Then I'll wait!"
After resting for a while, Albedo stepped into the darkness, and soon brought back a large spider as tall as a man.
Although normal spiders have little meat and are difficult to use as food, when a spider is large enough, there is no such problem as not having meat.
Looking at the spider legs that were as thick as thighs, Jiang Bai knew that he was blessed.
After a simple treatment of the large spider that has lost its vitality, the spider hair is removed, and Albedo uses gardenia and lemongrass to tie the large spider tightly, smear it with white nutmeg, and put it on the fire to slowly smoke.
After about an hour or two of smoking, the tempting fragrance entered his nasal cavity, and Jiang Bai felt that his saliva secretion was extremely fast, and he was about to lose control.
"Are you ready to eat?"
"It tastes better if you smoke it for a while."
Albedo chuckled, the warm light of the fire reflected on his face, extra gentle.
He hadn't eaten this spider for a long time, and the last time he ate it was when he was studying underground with his master.
He tore off a spider leg and handed it to Jiang Bai, "You taste it first." ”
Jiang Bai is not afraid of being hot, so he takes the spider leg and starts gnawing.
Tearing off a piece of meat and putting it in his mouth, Jiang Bai's eyes lit up.
The flesh of this spider is very peculiar, the meat is very tender, not fishy or woody, and the color is lemongrass and white cardamom, which is simply fragrant.
He decided to wait until he went back and grabbed a few and brought them back to the hall to open everyone's eyes.
Especially to be in front of Hu Tao.
Looking at the big spider that was still being smoked, Jiang Bai was thinking about what to leave to his hall master.
If you go back to the block, you can still eat it hot.
After another half an hour of smoking, the spider finally reached its best condition.
The two sat by the fire and gnawed on the spider's legs, sharing this rare delicacy, which was a little cold and extremely warm underground.
