Chapter Seventy-Four: Cave Heaven

Chi Zheng began to determine that his body was indeed dehumanized, which was not too hungry from his stomach, he was in good spirits just by drinking some water, and he did not poop for several days.

This is certainly not constipation......

Every day, once he finished casting the "Leaping Rock" spell, he meditated cross-legged to recover the spell, and then cast the "Leaping Rock" spell again, searching for the pangolin all over the mountains.

In just a few days, counting the "Rock Jumping" spell cast before, the total has reached more than a dozen times.

The tolerance for hunger is beyond the limits of normal human beings.

On the afternoon of this day, Chi Zheng once again noticed the fragments of Hedao jade on the pangolin's body, and the Qingfeng sword was immediately unsheathed, blasting through the stone wall and leaping forward.

But this time, he only chased a few feet before he lost the trace of the pangolin, but to his surprise, there was a hole in the broken mountain wall.

"What is this?"

There is a hole in the top of the head, and the light is repeated through the light, and the smoke rises in the hot spring of the cave, making the temperature in the cave much higher than the outside.

He was amazed not by this natural hot spring, but by the side of the hot spring, there were obvious traces of artificially carved tunnels.

Chi Zheng strolled over and touched it, it was different from the cave he had carved out with the Qingfeng Sword, the carving marks of this cave were very rough, and it was not smooth and tidy, but in fact, if it wasn't for magic, it would not have been possible to do that level with manpower alone.

There are also steps winding down the tunnel, Chi Zheng followed the steps down, and found that the cave may be attached to the mountain wall, just because the stone wall on the left side has been carved out many holes along the order, which allows the light from the outside world to come in, so that the whole cave will not be dark.

He hadn't walked long on the steps before a cave appeared in front of him.

It is said that it is a cave house, because there are four words engraved on the stone plaque on the cave house, "Nine Xiao Cave Heaven".

"Fortunately, it's not a 'water curtain cave'......"

Chi Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.

But he was soon amazed, why was there a cave in the wall of this mountain? Who made it? Is there anyone in it?

Thinking of this, Chi Zheng immediately raised his vigilance, the Qingfeng Sword was suspended behind him, and the Qingfeng Sword spell that flashed with a strong light had not yet expired, in fact, even if it was invalid, with today's Qingfeng Sword was not an ordinary soldier, splitting stones may be exaggerated, but it is really not difficult to cut gold and iron.

Walking in cautiously, Chi Zheng only saw that in the cave, there were stone seats and stone beds, and there were also stone tables and stone stoves, which were obviously signs of being available for living.

But the so-called master, with his back crossed against the stone bed, his clothes had long since rotted, and his body had turned into dry bones.

There is a smell of dust in the cave, and it should be that no one has been here for a long time.

In addition to this, there is a stone bookcase next to it, which is full of books, and I don't know if I can see it.

Chi Zheng looked east and west, except for the dry bones on the stone bed, he didn't see the second person in this burrow, but on the right, there was still a cave, he walked over quickly, and the spiraling steps did not know where they led, without hesitation, Chi Zheng wanted to take advantage of the fact that the spell had not yet expired, and quickly went down.

This time, it didn't take long for him to see the exit after two circles.

The cliff of this mountain wall is particularly high, and this exit is not to the end, but is overgrown with vines hanging down, and it seems that the normal way is to grasp these vines and climb up slowly.

But Chi Zheng looked down and looked down, good guy, it is a hundred zhang high, and the bottom is a strange rock, it is difficult for mortals to pass, let alone climb a hundred zhang high vines. Most importantly, the exit is obscured by vines and weeds, making it difficult to detect anomalies from a distance.

found the exit, and Chi Zheng returned the same way.

The owner of the cave was dead, and it was impossible for Chi Zheng to ask any more questions, so he pondered for a moment, just in case, and cast the "Tongyu" spell.

I searched back and forth again, and made sure there was nothing sneaky.

It's a clean place, except for the bones, which are an eyesore.

Compared with the bones, Chi Zheng's attention was on the stone table.

On the surface of this stone table, four items are placed.

A dusty whisk, a yellowed booklet, a handicap, a short-necked, bulging-bellied bronze jug, and a palm-sized, oddly shaped key.

He walked over and picked up the yellowed booklet, shaking off the dust, and feeling that the paper of the booklet had become brittle and dry, as if it would crush with a little force.

Turning the first page, it was even more glued together, and Chi Zheng carefully tore the first page.

The paper inside is fine, it is not yellowed without contact with the air, and the ink is still clear.

"The first time people who are destined, I am Du Hong, and the Taoist number is Xuansuizi......"

It's not the cheats that Chi Zheng imagined, this is actually a suicide note left by the owner of this place.

"It turned out that he was also a cultivator...... Yes, it's not a cultivator, what are you doing sitting in this burrow where there are no cockroaches?"

Chi Zheng opened it with interest and found that the owner of the suicide note basically wrote in ancient vernacular, which he could understand at a glance, and there was no reading disorder.

Du Hong, the owner of this suicide note, first told his deeds, saying that he was a scholar who studied the books of sages and sages, hoping to become an official one day.

One night, Du Hong suddenly had a dream, in the dream he was a monk in his previous life, but he could call the wind and rain to drive the clouds, but after all, there was no hope of becoming an immortal before he died, and before he died, he stored what he had learned all his life there, hoping to come back in the next life.

After waking up from the dream, Du Hong was addicted to the magic spells that called the wind and rain in the dream, and no longer had the heart to study, so he left the country to try to find the cave in the dream.

This search is decades!

By the time he finally found it, he was already dying, and Rao was like this, through what he had learned from his previous life, he still had some magical powers.

Unfortunately, it's still too late, too late.

In this life, because what he learned was too late, it was impossible to solve the mystery in the womb in the next life, so he lamented that the path of cultivation was extinct.

However, Du Hong's path of cultivation was cut off, but he didn't want to let what he had learned really be interrupted, so he kept all kinds of scriptures, Taoist collections, and secret tips that he had summarized and kept them for those who were destined to do so.

On the bookcase next to it, there are dense books, all of which are summaries of his later years.

In addition to this, Du Hong also left three items for the destined people.

The first is the dust, the dust is called Taiyi dust, it looks very ordinary in appearance, but it is actually very ordinary, Du Hong hopes that people who are destined to hold Taiyi dust, never forget to sweep away the evil obstacles and demons in their hearts, and do it firmly seek the Tao.

Of course, Du Hong also emphasized in his suicide note that this Taiyi dust whisk can drive away mosquitoes, sweep away dust, and even scratch his back, which is an indispensable treasure in summer.

When Chi Zheng saw this, he was shocked, he said that he played a Taoist priest, and he always felt that something was missing, and he never remembered what was missing.
