Chapter 271: Accidental Discovery
After a brief deliberation and preparation, the prodigal son took the lead and slipped through the square hole that the dumb man had slammed into. When the prodigal son went in, he found that this natural passage that descended slightly was so narrow that it could barely allow one person to crawl through. After he cautiously advanced seventeen or eighteen meters, the passage became slightly better, at least he was able to stand up, and he no longer had to crawl so uncomfortably.
However, there are still strange rocks in it, and it is unusually messy, and from time to time you still have to move and clean up some stones before you can pass through with difficulty. Fortunately, there is no danger in this section, otherwise it would be really difficult to deal with, and you can only be passively attacked.
The prodigal son continued to move forward for more than twenty meters, and suddenly found a small cave hall at the end of the passage. It's just that this small cave hall is indeed too small, only four or five square in size, but it is indeed much wider than the narrow passage just now.
Not only that, but in the northwest corner of this small cave hall, he found a small hole that was suspected to be the entrance of the descending shaft.
After Xiao Qingfeng and Jingxin entered this small cave hall, with the light of the prodigal son's armor, they suddenly discovered the suspected cave entrance in the northwest corner. I saw that the entrance of the cave was half covered with a large stone, revealing only half the size of a washbasin.
Incredibly, not only was there a faint sound of shouting coming from below, but there was even some faint light at the entrance of the cave when the prodigal son deliberately turned off the armor lighting.
In order not to startle the snake, the three of them held their breath and faintly listened, deliberately listening quietly for a while, and found that there was nothing else that happened below except for some shouts that came from time to time.
At this time, Jing Xin was the first to whisper: "This should be the top cave that the Yichen Dao person said, how can there be someone, and it doesn't seem to be the movement of one or two people, what is the situation, it is too unbelievable." ”
Xiao Qingfeng said: "Yes, I can't figure it out even if I want to break my head now." It stands to reason that our wolf brother had conducted a special survey of this Dragon Protector Ridge more than once earlier, and did not find the slightest suspicious situation. And even the stone carving left by the predecessor of the Yichen Dao man we saw just now, it only said that there are only two exit passages in this chain hole. The passage we are now is definitely the one above, and it is certain that no one has entered or exited this passage in a short period of time. And the exit below, according to the senior, should be hidden at the bottom of the reservoir under the Wanzhang Cliff. When we were at Unicorn Peak just now, we clearly saw the reservoir, and the amount of water in it was still very large, and it was almost impossible for outsiders to enter and exit from anywhere. ”
Jing Xin said: "If you want me to see, let's touch one person quietly, and then talk about it, I don't think that the people below are defenseless, and they won't think that we will suddenly 'fall into the sky' anyway." ”
Xiao Qingfeng said: "In that case, I'll call Brother Turtle over first, let them stay here, and the three of us will go down together." It is conceivable that the characters lurking in this kind of place, even if they are not real demons and monsters, are by no means good. Since we have met, let's take them down and control them first, and we must not let them get rid of us
We escaped. After saying that, he sent a signal to the Mengshan Turtle and the two of them to come over quickly.
After the two arrived, Xiao Qingfeng briefly and clearly introduced the situation and immediately started to act. Xiao Qingfeng first carefully removed the large stone on the top of the cave entrance, revealing an expected circular opening.
Then the prodigal son used a miniature probe to take a general look at the shaft. It was found that this shaft was extremely similar to the second shaft just now, but the depth was almost twenty-six or seven meters, and nothing else was found.
Finally, the climbing rope was fixed on the big boulder just now, and the best meditation from the light body was the first to quietly climb down, and reached the lower end of the shaft for field reconnaissance.
When she was about to reach the bottom of the shaft, she carefully froze her body and extended the miniature probe into the cavern below.
It is really a large space below, about thirty or forty square meters on the whole, roughly in an east-west direction, and there are more than a dozen small caves on both sides. In addition, at the top of this space, there are three ceiling lamps with strong brightness.
Finally, on the ground on the west side, he found another entrance to what was suspected to be a shaft. Inside the shaft, there is even a metal ladder, with a small part of the upper part already protruding from the shaft entrance. It seems that this shaft should be the connecting channel between the upper and lower floors mentioned by the Yichen Dao man.
After carefully inspecting it twice, he truthfully reported the situation to Xiao Qingfeng above. After Xiao Qingfeng understood, due to the special situation below, he immediately decided to attack and control the top layer first. So the three of them rushed down, reached the ground below at great speed, and quickly found a corner to hide.
They kept an eye on the exit of the shaft in order to catch and control the bandits who had suddenly emerged from below, and when they arrived, they began to think of a way to carry out a surprise operation on the shaft.
At the same time, Jing Xin followed Xiao Qingfeng's instructions and sent a secret signal to the Mengshan turtle above.
But just then, suddenly there was a noise from the shaft below, as if someone had climbed up a ladder. Sure enough, after a while, a middle-aged strong man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist climbed up from below.
It's just that before this middle-aged strong man could react, Xiao Qingfeng came to him like a ghost. When this middle-aged strong man saw Xiao Qingfeng in front of him at first glance, he thought that he was dazzled, and he was stunned for a while.
By the time he had just reacted and wanted to shout loudly, Xiao Qingfeng had already hit several of his key points, making him suddenly lose any ability to resist, and he could only be at the mercy of others.
At the same time, the prodigal son didn't need Xiao Qingfeng's orders, so he jumped to the side of the cave in one step to guard it from coming out again.
Xiao Qingfeng had just taken this middle-aged strong man here, and the two brothers Mengshan Turtle and Little Taoist came down one after another. Seeing that Xiao Qingfeng had caught the live mouth, the little Taoist priest fluttered his triangular head, sneered and rushed over with a sliding step.
You must know that torture to extract confessions is a trick of other people's little Taoist priests, no matter how ruthless you are, as long as you fall into his hands
Even if it's bad luck. Even if you can withstand the torture of his broken bones, it will be difficult to endure the destruction of his heart-wrenching and vein-amputated pulse.
You know, this kid is a typical paranoid "sadist", he likes to enjoy the fun of others who can't survive or die, and the more tenacious and desperate others resist him, the more excited he is. Generally, the characters who have been "taken care of" by his hands will more or less let you leave some unforgettable "memorials" for a lifetime.
Sure enough, this middle-aged strong man, who seemed to be quite "heroic", was completely folded in the hands of the little Taoist priest in less than three or five minutes, and strongly expressed his "vow to die and serve your boss".
Fortunately, this kid has a little insight and sees the opportunity quickly, he didn't charge any heroes, and he just tried the real power of the little Taoist priest's methods, but he didn't leave any "regretful life" disability, which is also his "luck".
Xiao Qingfeng looked at it from the side, and he was also happy, and immediately stepped forward to take him to a relatively quiet corner with the little Taoist priest, and interrogated him concisely and clearly. In less than twenty minutes, Xiao Qingfeng basically figured out the general situation in the three-story cave of this chain cave.
During this period, due to the special situation, Xiao Qingfeng also specially asked Jingxin to call the lone wolf down and participated in most of the interrogations together. And the safe retreat guarantee work above will let the dumb at the top come down to take over to ensure that the retreat route is unimpeded.
Fortunately, Xiao Maitreya only injured the shin of his calf, an ordinary external injury, and there is actually no real problem for a real master like him.
Even if he was left alone in the Peach Blossom Cave, it should be more than enough, not to mention that there was a powerful barbaric goddess doll to help him. Unless the other party has any really powerful masters, with the skills of the two of them, there is absolutely no problem in simply guarding the Peach Blossom Cave.
After a brief interrogation, Rao is a lone wolf who has been well-informed for a long time, and he can't help but be a little dumbfounded and unbelievable. The lone wolf never thought that in the belly of this small Longling Mountain, there was the famous "Four Ghosts in Guanzhong".
You must know that these "four ghosts in Guanzhong" are really not trivial, they are all cultural relics felons who have been on the run for many years. And they have disappeared from the rivers and lakes for many years, who would have thought that today they got their information here again. What's more, the current chain cave should be the location of their current base camp.
This can really be regarded as: "If you have the intention to plant flowers but not to bloom, you have no intention to plant willows and willows." "Who would have thought that today's outdoor adventures in the pure sense of the word could unintentionally get such a big gain.
According to the situation explained by the middle-aged strong man, the lone wolf and Xiao Qingfeng urgently discussed, and asked the prodigal son to hold the middle-aged strong man at the entrance of the cave below for the time being. Try not to let the guards below come up again, if someone really does force up, then dispose of it as soon as he shows up, and never let him make any noise.
When this middle-aged strong man suddenly saw the special outfit of the prodigal son, he was stunned again, rubbing his eyes again and again, and a little doubtful of life.
In particular, when the prodigal son's cold mechanical arm was on his shoulder, instantly conjuring up a large flameblast gun, it startled him even more, and he was completely blindfolded.
