007 Escape through the Secret Passage
Luo Yao trembled with fright, knowing that something was going on, he hurriedly summoned all the monks in Qingchuan City to find the whereabouts of his sister and Wang Baoyu.
It's not that the sisters are ruthless, they haven't seen their sister for many days, Luo Yao also feels deep remorse, but she hates Wang Baoyu even more in her heart.
The two of them who were still in the underground cave didn't know that there was a commotion above, and they were still looking for an exit to leave. After three days of walking along the dark river, Wang Baoyu was disappointed, and the river fell down a hole and flowed deeper into the ground.
How can they get out, the two of them are out of line for a while, and the rat meat is also eaten, and they never meet another weevil-nosed rat again.
"Baoyu, if it doesn't work, go back, and see if you can open the entrance when you came. Luo Qian suggested.
"No, even if it's opened, the cliff won't be easy to go up, so we'll look around and look around. ”
Wang Baoyu didn't want to see the plague god Luo Yao again, her sister was lost, she must have arranged personnel there, and it was hard to guarantee that she would be killed as soon as she went up.
"Well, you have a lot of ideas, I listen to you. Luo Qian smiled, and the little bird followed Wang Baoyu like a human to continue to move forward.
Plans to find a way out along the Dark River fail, and the two men begin to walk between stalagmites and stone pillars in search of an exit, but the situation gets worse and the two men soon get lost.
"Alas, if only we could hunt demon beasts again, we could continue to cultivate here. Luo Qian said.
"I always live underground, I will get sick, but I still have to find a way to get out. ”
Wang Baoyu took Luo Qian and continued to walk forward, and after turning a stone pillar, he suddenly found that there were a few black and round things on the ground.
"Qian'er, do you know this thing?" Wang Baoyu picked up one, like an iron ball, which was quite weighty, and took it under his nose and smelled it, but it didn't taste much.
Luo Qian took a closer look, and her face changed greatly, "This is the feces of an iron beetle!"
It's disgusting, Wang Baoyu lost it casually, Luo Qian said nervously: "Baoyu, go quickly, the iron beetle is a second-level demon beast, we can't beat it." ”
"Don't worry, I don't feel a red flag, the iron beetle may not be here. ”
Only then did Luo Qian relax, followed by a man who could predict the danger and ensure safety, Wang Baoyu asked again: "What are the characteristics of the iron beetle?"
"Can drill the ground, can fly, likes to eat iron and stone, the carapace is strong, the monk in the foundation building period can be broken, there are two chelas on the head, and it is very aggressive. ”
Can you drill into the ground? Wang Baoyu's eyes lit up, since he didn't feel the danger, it meant that the iron beetle had already left, and he might leave a passage.
Along the direction of the scattered feces, Wang Baoyu took Luo Qian and continued to walk forward, and after a while, a small waterhole appeared in front of him, the water surface was as black as ink, and at a glance, it was bottomless.
"This is molten iron, and there is also a medicine garden in the city, which is used to cultivate the Soul Condensing Tree. Luo Qian said.
"It's good that there's no danger. Wang Baoyu replied casually.
"Baoyu, I found something good. Luo Qian suddenly became excited, walked over quickly and picked three black lacquer jujube core-shaped things on a bush of withered bushes by the waterhole, and held them in her hands excitedly.
"What is this?"
"Soul Fruit, it's very rare, I've only eaten one when I've grown so big. Luo Qian said.
"What's the use?"
"It can strengthen the divine sense, especially the soul core, and it is all thanks to it that I can break through to the fifth layer. ”
"I don't have a soul core, you can keep it!" Wang Baoyu was not interested, this kind of fruit, no matter how you look at it, it will not be delicious.
"Baoyu, we haven't eaten for three days, the Soul Strengthening Fruit is non-toxic, even if we replenish our physical strength. Luo Qian handed over one with a coquettish tone.
I don't know when I can find the exit, survival is the top priority, Wang Baoyu frowned and took it and put it in his mouth.
"Don't chew, swallow it directly, and refine it with true qi. Luo Qian hurriedly admonished.
Swallowing the dates, Wang Baoyu swallowed it, Luo Qian also ate one, and put the other one away carefully.
The two of them sat down cross-legged on the spot, refining the Soul Enhancement Fruit first, and then speaking, this thing was really strange, and after swallowing it in their stomachs, the true qi immediately surrounded it uncontrollably.
Wang Baoyu calmed down, feeling the changes in his body, I don't know how long it took, the soul fruit seemed to have disappeared, but there was a burst of tightness between his eyebrows, and there was a tingling sensation.
This feeling lasted for a full hour before it gradually subsided, and the true qi refined the soul strengthening fruit, and returned to the dantian, Wang Baoyu tentatively guided the air flow, passing through the middle channel and the second pulse of Rendu, everything was normal.
When he opened his eyes, Luo Qian was looking at him with an incredible look.
"Qianqian, what's wrong again?" Wang Baoyu rubbed his face, he hadn't washed it for a few days, and it might be very dirty.
"Don't move!" Luo Qian said, leaning her face closer, and finally confirmed: "Baoyu, it's so strange, you seem to have a soul core." ”
The soul core is the symbol of the monk, and for Wang Baoyu, it means a lot, as long as the monks can't see that he is a mortal, then they can save a lot of trouble, and they don't have to be on guard against being knocked down and bled at all times.
"Great, with this sign, I am not afraid that the monk will think about eating me. ”
"The soul core is not too clear!" Luo Qian said, and took out another soul fruit, "Baoyu, try another one!"
Without hesitation, Wang Baoyu swallowed it immediately, meditated cross-legged again, and felt the same as last time, with a tight and stinging pain between his eyebrows, which lasted for a longer time.
"This time it feels a little clearer, it's still like a fake. Luo Qian was a little disappointed.
"It's better than nothing!" Wang Baoyu smiled relaxedly, now that he had reached the fourth layer of the Peiyuan Period, except for Luo Yao and others, who could easily distinguish the authenticity from the fake.
Swallowing two soul strengthening fruits, Wang Baoyu felt much better and his mind was clearer, and the two of them were looking for an exit nearby.
The hard work paid off, and under a stone pillar, the feces of an iron beetle were found, and a deep hole was found, which was round and smooth, as if it was deliberately created.
"Qianqian, this may reach the surface, let's get in. ”
Instead of being trapped here, it is better to give it a bold try, Luo Qian nodded, and Wang Baoyu let her follow behind and burrow into the hole.
The cave was very smooth and narrow, barely passing alone, Wang Baoyu struggled to climb forward, and Luo Qian simply grabbed his shoes, lest he be left behind.
Twisting and turning, I don't know how long I climbed, Wang Baoyu felt a cool breeze, and hope ignited in his heart.
Finally, he saw a few shining stars, chasing the direction of the stars, and the two of them escaped from the underground cave along the passage opened by the iron beetle!
Wang Baoyu saw the night sky of the other world for the first time, the stars were clear and bright, dotted with the sky, two moons, one bright and one dark, hanging obliquely in the sky, thanks to the moonlight and starlight, the surroundings were not dark, and even the lines on the blades of grass could be faintly seen.
At this time, the two of them were ragged and gray-faced, but the happiness of getting out of danger made them snuggle together and sit down with a smile.
"Qianqian, why are there two moons?"
"Could it be that there is a moon in your world?" Luo Qian asked at a loss.
