Chapter 80: Collapse
(Thank you 'Beneath the Road' for your great support.) )
Ding Qi sighed when he saw Li Hao, who died tragically.
Ding Qi had long guessed that there must be many dangers in this underground palace, so he was careful everywhere when he was exploring. Before, Ding Qi found out that Li Hao, who was not far away, actually found the mechanism and opened it rashly, so he thought of stopping him, but after all, it was a step too late.
Looking at Li Hao, who was pierced in the skull nearby, the charming girl who was searching for a box not far away, her face was already pale. Seeing this, Ding Qi grinned at her.
This charming girl, the words 'coward' that she gave to Ding Qi before, can't say it anymore no matter what.
The people of the Qingyun Sect also discovered the situation on Ding Qi's side. In fact, the scene where Li Hao was pierced through the head by a crossbow arrow and died was seen by several disciples of the Qingyun Sect on the spot, but these people from the Qingyun Sect were all stunned.
Not long after, the high-ranking members of the Qingyun Sect stood next to Li Hao's corpse, their faces extremely unsightly.
Ding Qi stood not far from the top of the Qingyun Sect, listening to their conversation. From the conversation, these people finally realized that this exploration trip would not be as easy as they originally expected.
However, just when these high-level leaders of the Qingyun Sect were talking about something with a bad face, Ding Qi's eyes suddenly widened, and he took his attention away from these people, with a solemn look on his face.
Ding Qi looked towards the first hall, and his face suddenly changed.
At the same time as Ding Qi's face changed, the entire hall suddenly burst into flames. Especially in the first hall, the noise was even louder, as if something had collapsed.
When Ding Qi heard the sudden noise, he seemed to have a premonition that something was happening.
Under such a loud noise, the energy of everyone in the Qingyun Sect was attracted, and they turned their heads to look in the direction of the first hall. For a while, he couldn't even care about Li Hao's shooting.
The people of the Qingyun Sect quickly figured out what was going on with the loud noise coming from the first hall.
Now most of the people from the Qingyun Sect appeared in the first hall, looking at the scene in front of them, their faces showing panic. Ding Qi looked at the scene in the hall and frowned slightly.
The original large hall is now only a small part of the hall, and the rest of the place is all buried by earth and rock. This huge hall has actually collapsed.
That's not all, though.
Thinking of this, Ding Qi looked towards the passage into the dungeon. The part that was supposed to be a passage is now completely gone. The places where the roads in and out of the underground palace have been sealed by mountains and rocks.
Judging from the collapse at the scene, this collapse basically started from the passage in and out of the underground palace. This damaged most of the hall, and more of it was affected.
Ding Qi knew that this passage in and out of the underground palace was deep and long, and they were now at least dozens of feet deep underground. In the case of the collapse of the passage, it is simply impossible to dig through.
In other words, the Qingyun Sect was no longer able to get out of this dungeon at all, and they had been completely sealed in the dungeon they were in now.
"This is the mechanism that Li Hao inadvertently opened...... It is a chain mechanism. Thinking of something, Ding Qi had a wry smile on his face.
Thinking back to what happened during this time, Ding Qi realized that what Li Hao opened was a chain mechanism at all. The crossbow arrow that shot Li Hao was actually just the first mechanism. Now, after Li Hao was shot, the follow-up mechanism had been activated at that time, and finally collapsed the entire passage in and out of this underground palace.
Ding Qi was not the only one who had the same thoughts, from the muttering of several high-ranking members of the Qingyun Sect that he heard, these people were also aware of the connection.
But even if they were aware of it, they wouldn't be able to change the situation. They are trapped in this dungeon, and if they can't get out, no matter how rich they have here, they will eventually die here.
The people of the Qingyun Sect knew this very well, and when they thought that they would eventually be trapped and killed under the underground palace, everyone's faces showed panicked looks.
"Ladies and gentlemen, there is no need to panic yet. ”
Just when everyone in the Qingyun Sect fell into a panic, suddenly a person said loudly.
This person attracted everyone's attention at once.
It was Zuo Yang who made the sound.
At this time, Zuo Yang's face was not good-looking, but he still paused, and then said: "Actually, you should be able to see it." This underground palace has been sealed for at least a hundred years, but have you noticed that after such a long period of sealing, the air in this underground palace now does not have the slightest sense of turbidity when breathing. ”
After Zuo Yang's reminder, others suddenly realized this problem. After understanding the consciousness in Zuo Yang's words, many people showed a clear expression, and their originally panicked faces quickly showed joy.
The left head glanced at the people under the door, and then said, "It seems that many people have already understood what I just realized. Since the air in this dungeon is so smooth, this place will not be just an entrance. As long as we can find other exits in the dungeon, we can get out of here. ”
"But for this reason, we must also explore this underground palace more carefully, so that we can find another entrance. Next, Zuo Yang continued.
The people who didn't realize what Zuo Yang meant just now, after hearing Zuo Zhangmen's explanation, finally understood, and the panic on their faces gradually disappeared, and they finally relaxed.
With what the left boss said just now, the panic that had spread among the people of the Qingyun Sect because of the collapse of the passage finally converged again.
Next, under the arrangement of Elder Guan, he went back to re-explore the second hall.
Although there are also people who have doubts about what Zuo Yang just said, but no one really said these doubts, and they finally chose to do what they were told like everyone else. After all, what Zuo Yang just said was their only hope.
In the absence of other ways, if you do what Zuo Yang said, maybe you can really get them out of the underground palace.
Ding Qi naturally couldn't really fully believe what Zuo Yang said before, when he returned to the second hall, he looked at the completely collapsed passage, and then looked above his head and frowned.
"If I really can't find another exit, then I can only chisel open this underground palace and get out from the inside. For others, this is impossible, but for me ....... Thinking of this, Ding Qi shook his head.
Thinking of the brocade silk that cut stones, as simple as cutting tofu, Ding Qi grinned.
He decided that if the worst happened, and the people of the Qingyun Sect really didn't find another exit in the end, he would use the brocade silk in his hand to dig a passage to the ground and go out of the underground palace.
