I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

Chapter 448 Breaking through the wall
Mr. Mo said nothing and only looked at the camp guard faintly. Wei Ying quickly slapped him hard: "What's the point? Just tell me quickly!"

"My subordinates have heard before that if a miner encounters a large rock that cannot be bypassed, he can first burn it with fire, then pour cold water on it, and then dig it out again. This will achieve twice the result with half the effort."

Mr. Mo nodded, and Wei Ying immediately ordered everyone: "Stop now and go collect firewood from everywhere!"

Wei Cang turned to the guard camp and said, "If it is really effective, I will allow you to skip the promotion and go directly to the guard camp!"

The man was overjoyed, and regardless of the gravel on the ground, he knelt down heavily and kowtowed: "Thank you, Lord! Thank you, Commander!"

When Luo Qianhuai heard this, he saw the system put his right hand on the inside of the stone wall, and Yun Danfeng pressed it gently.

After the palm passed, the system turned around and walked towards the giant python that was shrinking and retreating, but still unwilling to do so.

Her eyes were calm and peaceful, and even when she looked at such a beast with a ferocious nature, she did not show the slightest emotion of disgust.

In other words, in the eyes of the system, the evil dragon that can easily swallow hundreds of people has been ignored as if it were a dead thing.

This giant python has lived for hundreds of years, and has long exceeded the upper limit of snake lifespan. It has also developed a certain degree of wisdom. It can be fully felt that the originally quite weak food in front of it has undergone a qualitative change and turned into a quite powerful creature. The existence of terror.

Although his body is still so small, it seems to contain endless energy, as if he can turn himself into powder with just a hand.

This possibility exists, but it obviously shouldn't be the case.

The python's limited IQ keeps making trade-offs between the two options.

Either it would swallow her, just like the weak creatures it had swallowed for hundreds of years.

Or run away and go all the way back to your safe and reliable lair under the dark, cold water.

The system didn't care about its thoughts. It took faster and faster steps. Then, amid the exclamations of Xing Xuan and others, it soared into the air and rushed straight to the face of the giant python.

Ana covered Jin Yanyu's eyes, fearing that she would see Luo Qianhuai being swallowed alive.

But at this moment, on the stone wall behind them, centered on the place where the system had previously struck, spiderweb-like cracks slowly appeared, making a heart-wrenching "crunching" sound, and countless stone chips rustled. And fall.

That huge piece of granite, which seemed indestructible and was still in trouble even if countless experts gathered together, simply cracked.

"This is..." Ana quickly picked up Jin Yanyu, pulled Xingxuan who was still in a daze, and quickly moved away from the stone wall before exclaiming in surprise.

"It's the eldest lady!" Xingxuan's tears flowed out: "She used her last strength to break the stone wall and leave us a way to survive!"

She turned her head and looked at the end of the corridor. Both the giant python and Luo Qianhuai had disappeared. She couldn't help but burst into tears. Without thinking, she broke away from Ana's wrist and rushed in along the corridor.

Cracks passed through the giant rock and soon appeared in front of everyone.

"Master, this place seems to be collapsing. Please go to a safe place immediately!" The camp guards quickly retreated and protected Master Mo.

"No need!" Mr. Mo's face showed joy. He didn't care at all about the danger of the boulder disintegrating. He walked on the stone chips to the stone wall and asked in a loud voice: "Yin Yin, it's you"

This sentence was interrupted by large and small stones scattered everywhere.

Mr. Mo, who had always been handsome and elegant, had gray-white stone powder everywhere on his face and body. But he didn't take it seriously at all, he just looked in through the hole that was as tall as a person in front of him.

Ana and Jin Yanyu were also in a mess, staring blankly at the people outside.

"Who are you?" Ana saw the men in black on both sides quickly gathered around the noble young master, holding swords in hand. He looked at himself and his junior sister warily. He couldn't help but smile bitterly, threw out the sword in his hand, and cupped his fists. asked. Wei Ying had already led more than a dozen battalion guards, and jumped in from the entrance of the cave first, surrounded the two of them, then carefully looked around, and then reported:

"Sir, it's safe for now!"

The camp guards then stepped forward and cleared away the stones that were piled up to half a person's height, leaving a passage for people to enter.

Mr. Mo couldn't wait any longer and stepped in immediately.

"Where is Mrs. Jing?" he asked.

When Jin Yanyu heard him mention Luo Qianhuai, he immediately felt a lot closer to her, and quickly said, "So this brother is here to find my Jing family sister, so he is one of his own!"

"So, you have seen her." Mr. Mo glanced at her lightly: "You are here just fine, but where is she?"

The aggravated tone and the unconscious intimidation amplified the guilt deep in Jin Yanyu's heart. She suddenly couldn't bear it any longer and burst into tears.

"Sister, sister, she broke the stone wall and lured away the evil dragon!"

She pointed at the dark, damp, smelly corridor ahead and cried.

Mr. Mo no longer cared about concealing his martial arts, and disappeared in front of her in a flash.

Wei Cang and Wei Ying didn't have time to think, and followed closely with dozens of personal guards. The battalion guards at the back also had a well-organized division of labor. Most of them followed along the road with various tools, while the other group responded outside the cave and took care of and interrogated the two survivors of the White Horse Gate.

Because Jin Yanyu seemed to be on good terms with Luo Qianhuai, the attitude of the camp guards was actually quite polite.

The system closely chased the giant python that suddenly lost its heart, passing through countless winding and winding corridors, and arrived at a pool at the bottom.

As the python sank into the water, it nodded slightly at her, probably to express its wish to see off the guests politely.

It's a pity that you have swallowed so many people in front of me.

Luo Qianhuai had no sympathy for this ferocious beast.

The system jumped into the water without hesitation.

The water in the pool was bone-chillingly cold, and the temperature was no different from the river where she jumped in the dead of winter.

But this time, Luo Qianhuai didn't complain at all. She just followed the system, all the way down and then down again, and swam for about a hundred meters until she saw the bottom of the pool.

A clear line of sight unimpeded by the darkness seemed extremely unfriendly at this time.

Everything he saw made Luo Qianhuai feel a great sense of discomfort in his heart: layers of white bones covered the entire bottom of the pond. At a glance, there were more than a thousand of them.

Among the bones, there are also many moss-covered gold and jade objects, all of which look like sacrifices in shape.

The thick snake body, which is more than 100 meters long, is currently entrenched in the northeast corner of the bottom of the pool, closing its eyes and trying to sleep. As if it suddenly felt something strange in the water, it opened its eyes in surprise and saw Luo Qianhuai.

The giant python obviously didn't expect that after he had given in so much, the other party still refused to let go and actually chased him all the way into the lair.

What is intolerable is unbearable. It raised its head high, opened its big mouth, and flapped its back cheeks, roaring silently at her. The rushing water turned into a vortex, wrapping Luo Qianhuai into it.

The next moment, an invisible force spread out from the system.
