Hu Bing stepped back a few feet, out of the danger zone around the whirlpool. She took a deep breath, calmed down her chaotic thoughts, and said in her heart: "Since you are here, you must fulfill your obligations well, don't think about those illusory things, speculation can never be linked to reality, as long as you do your best, there will be no regrets." ”

On this day, Hu Bing recorded the fluctuation frequency of more than 500 whirlpools, and finally stopped when it was time to go.

At this moment, Hu Bing was exhausted, his whole body's spiritual power was almost exhausted, and if he continued to consume it, he would fall into a state of running out of oil and running out. Although she had been using the spiritual barrier to protect herself throughout the whole process and had not suffered trauma, the continuous impact of the spiritual power torrent also made her feel sore, and there was no comfortable place in her body, and now she just wanted to lie down and rest. She knew that she would not be able to sustain herself any longer after falling into this state, so she could only choose to stop for the time being, rest for the night, and continue exploring tomorrow.

After Hu Bing made a good note of his position in the abyss at the moment, he lifted the last bit of spiritual power in the meridians, and used the Sky Controlling Technique to leap up and return to the high ground around the abyss. She lay down quietly on the high ground, lost herself in thought, and summed up the results of the day in her mind.

"After this day's record, it doesn't seem to be as bad as I thought it would be. Although the highest frequency was 32,000 teas, the lowest was only 5,300 teas, and the fluctuations in the middle were actually very drastic, and the gap was also very obvious, so it was not surprising that there were even vortex fluctuations similar to my own spiritual power fluctuations. ”

Hu Bing suddenly calmed down when she thought of this, and no longer felt worried, the fatigue accumulated from a day's hard work made her spirit gradually dissipate, and her eyelids began to open and close, and it was difficult to stay awake anymore. Although the White Fox Clan never had to sleep, at this moment Hu Bing had to fall into a deep sleep. Just a moment later, she was asleep.

When he woke up again, it was already the early morning of the second day, Hu Bing rubbed his eyes, shook his head slightly, and sighed: "Acting in this dangerous environment is really a huge loss of body and mind, this is the first time in my life that I fell asleep because of tiredness, fortunately I have explored most of this abyss yesterday, otherwise I may not have enough energy to complete the journey." ”

Hu Bing knew that he had to make a quick decision, and the longer he stopped, the more sleepy he would become, and while he still had enough energy and physical strength, he should complete the remaining tasks as soon as possible.

Hu Bing locked on the high ground yesterday's last foothold, and once again used his Sky Command Technique to enter the fog barrier, and came to a place in the depths of the abyss.

After Hu Bing stood still, he confirmed his position with his inner eye, and only after finding that the surrounding area was no different from the scene in his memory, did he start to walk forward.

Three more hours of exploration and recording followed, until Hu Bing came to a corner near the end of the abyss. After seeing the scene in front of her, a trace of timidity suddenly rose in her heart, and she no longer dared to move forward.

There, she saw dozens of space-time vortices next to each other, no more than five zhang away from each other, almost overlapping each other, like beasts with open jaws waiting for their prey to approach.

The airflow in this space has not stopped rioting for a moment, and the space has long been unstable, and it seems to have reached a critical point

As long as the force increased by one more point, this small heaven and earth within a radius of one mile would immediately shatter and turn into a huge space-time rift that could devour everything.

Then the boundless calamity will come, and the entire desolation, and even the small villages around the abyss, will be affected, and the power of this rift in time and space will be shattered and destroyed inch by inch, until it will be reduced to a void.

Hu Bing stood in place, looking at the incomparably terrifying scene in front of him, even if he had the courage to move forward, he didn't dare to take a step forward. Because she knew that if she acted recklessly and unfortunately lost her life, the important information she wrote down would never be conveyed to Li Mengluan and them, and all the efforts she made would end up being nothing more than a bamboo basket, which was an irresponsible choice for herself or others.

"This space is too dangerous for me to set foot in, and I must not afford to lose my life here. Although it is a pity that I have not been able to explore the abyss completely, the footprints have been covered, and the harvest is not small. The next most important task is to convey this information in my mind to Mengluan and Qingling, and it seems that I have to stop here today. ”

After the decision was made, Hu Bing immediately rose into the sky and left the abyss.

After leaving the abyss, Hu Bing found that he still had many questions unanswered, and if he went back like this, it would be difficult to provide the clearest and most comprehensive information to Li Mengluan and others. Instead of immediately setting out on the way back, she decided to seek help from the inhabitants around the abyss, hoping to learn more about the truth she did not know.

Hu Bing then began to search around the abyss, and eventually came to a small village only five miles away from the abyss.

In such a very remote place, Hu Bing didn't have to worry about her identity being seen through, so she didn't use any way to hide her identity, but chose to swagger into the village.

Seeing a stranger coming to the village, a female villager dressed in plain cloth immediately greeted her and asked with a kind smile, "May I ask if this distinguished guest wants to spend the night?"

Hu Bing shook his head lightly and said politely: "I'm not here to stay overnight, I just want to ask you people here for some news about the abyss, I don't know if it's okay." ”

"Abyss?" The moment she heard these two words, the female villager's expression suddenly darkened, and her brows frowned slightly, as if she recalled some sad past.

Hu Bing saw that the female villagers showed an embarrassed expression, so he said: "If it's inconvenient, it doesn't matter, I can go to other nearby villages to investigate, and I don't need to trouble you." ”

"You wait here for a while, I'll talk to the village chief. The female villager was silent for a moment before speaking to Hu Bing.

"No problem, you go, I'll stay here and wait for your news. Hu Bing bowed his head and smiled.

"Thank you for your understanding, I'm really sorry. ”

"Why do you want to apologize, it's obvious that I took the initiative to trouble you, just go. ”

"Thank you!" After glancing at Hu Bing with grateful eyes, the female villager turned around and trotted towards the center of the village.

Hu Bing looked at her back, looked up to the sky and sighed, and said in his heart: "I didn't expect them to have a knot in their hearts for the abyss, hoping that the village chief."

It is better to be accommodating, otherwise this trip will be tantamount to wasting time in vain, and it is really not worth it. ”

After a while, the female villager rushed back and said to Hu Bing: "The village chief has agreed, and I invite you to talk to him, and I will take you there." ”

Hu Bing breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Excellency, for your help." ”

With that, he followed the female villager into the middle of the village and came to the front of a large thatched hut.

At this time, a man who was not confused was standing in front of the thatched hut and waiting, and when he saw Hu Bing, he hurriedly greeted her warmly.

"Chen Gaoyun, the head of Xiachenjia Village, welcomes your guests. ”

Seeing this, Hu Bing hurriedly stepped forward and responded: "In Xia Hu Bing, I have seen the village chief. ”

"You're welcome, come into the house. With that, Chen Gaoyun took Hu Bing into the room, and the two sat down on the wooden chairs in the hall.

"Do you need tea?" I'll ask someone to bring it up. Chen Gaoyun asked politely.

"No, I just want to ask the village chief a few questions, and when I get the answers, I'll leave immediately, because I still have urgent business to do, so I won't stay here. Hu Bing replied.

"I heard from Juan'er that you want to inquire about the abyss?"

"It is that I am very curious about the great changes that have taken place in the abyss, and I want to know something from those of you who live near the abyss. Hu Bing casually made up an excuse.

"If you ask, I promise to answer everything. Chen Gaoyun said.

"Does the village chief know when the fog in this abyss appeared, who laid this fog barrier, and what is the reason for it?"

Hu Bing asked three questions in one breath, each of which hit the nail on the head, pointing to the core of the abyss's changes.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Gaoyun said, "Actually, I don't know who planted this fog barrier, let alone the reason for its existence. However, according to the few words left by the ancestors, it can probably be judged that this fog barrier has existed since a hundred years ago. ”

"Understood. But when did those whirlpools in the fog barrier come out, and does the village chief know the function of these space-time whirlpools?" Hu Bing asked again.

"Soon after the fog barrier was raised, these whirlpools should have popped up, and I don't know exactly when. The vortex seems to be a tunnel connecting to another dimension, and I can't give an exact answer as to where it leads. But it's probably a way to get to the bottom of the abyss. ”

Hearing Chen Gaoyun's words, Hu Bing was slightly stunned and asked, "Where did the underground village chief get this news?"

Chen Gaoyun sighed at this time, and said in a deep voice: "In fact, every ten years, the abyss will open a huge 'time and space gate', anyone can go to an underground danger during the time when the 'time and space gate' opens, many explorers say that there are many treasures hidden underground, and if you get any of them, you can turn into a rich man with a lot of money." As a result, many of the young people in our village have participated in these underground expeditions in recent decades. However, the other side of the 'Gate of Time and Space' seems to be extremely dangerous, and ten of the people who go to explore have never returned. My two sons all died there, and none of them came back..."
