Chapter 433 Huang Jing Lingshi Cave ([-])
433 Chapter 433 Topaz Lingshi Cave ([-])

Zhang Qiling and the girl were walking against the wind in the wind tunnel. The inside of the cave was a simple straight tube shape. There were no decorations on the surrounding stone walls except for wave-like patterns. The cave was not very long. It was faintly visible as soon as they entered the cave. You can see the "next door" that the little boy in front of you said.

Soon we arrived at the door. The door was one person high and two people wide. It had an irregular and strange shape. It felt like a white honeycomb-like substance formed after something had calcified. The outlet for the wind was right at the door. in the middle of the upper half, and the shape of the air outlet is exactly the shape of a shell key.

Zhang Qiling saw that the girl was a little hesitant when she picked up the shell in her hand, but after a moment she stuffed it into the wind tunnel. There was a "clacking" sound and the wind stopped.

The girl raised her spiritual stone pistol and aimed it at the shell. The spiritual blood hit the shell, and the stone door gradually rose upwards.

As soon as they entered, the two people first pushed away the white mist in front of them. The space they saw was like a dragon palace under the sea, with all kinds of corals, aquatic plants, shells, conches, pearls and strange rocks...

Zhang Qiling looked around, but didn't see anywhere that looked like an entrance to the next level.

I moved closer to my brother, covered my mouth with my hand and whispered to him: "It looks like this is a seafood. Look, the pearls here are as big as basketballs, and the shell is bigger than our double bed. I must be guarding this place." The one who shuts me down is not too small, have you found the door or the entrance?"

Zhang Qiling shook his head, and the girl said to him again: "Brother, you have good marksmanship, just hold the gun." As he said that, the spirit stone pistol was stuffed into his hand.

At this moment, a dark red phantom whizzed past in front of our eyes. I widened my eyes to look at it. I felt that the thing seemed soft, huge, and seemed to be very long. I asked: "Brother, you're here, right?" Zhang Qiling pulled the girl towards him.

"Swish, swish, swish" the dark red phantom flashed left and right, passing in front of our eyes. It felt like it was teasing us. After a few times, the surroundings suddenly returned to calm, but the dangerous atmosphere seemed to be getting stronger. I couldn't help but cover my nose and said: "This guy smells like the sea."

Suddenly a thick jet of black smoke poured out from all directions. In the blink of an eye, the black smoke filled the air, and the place suddenly became invisible. The extreme darkness made people feel very oppressive. I knew that my brother was always holding me. wrist, which made me feel less scared.

This smoke has no smell and feels wet, which makes you feel suffocated when you breathe. After it adheres to the skin, it will pile up layer by layer. When the thickness reaches a certain level, you will feel that it is a somewhat sticky liquid. , I already vaguely know what species this guy is.

But at this moment, something cold and smelling of sea suddenly covered my mouth tightly, and it quickly wrapped around my neck. I couldn't make a sound under the tight grip. The thing wrapped around my body, arms, legs and feet with lightning speed, like a rice dumpling, and rolled up my whole body and feet off the ground. It got tighter and tighter, and I couldn't struggle at all. It pulled me away from my brother.

The girl's little hand suddenly tightened on his, as if something had attacked her. He wanted to pull her into his arms, but when he was pulling her into his arms, he was hit by something cold and slippery. After forcibly separating the two, he reached out to grab the girl again, but she was completely pulled away by the thing.

The thing came so quietly that he was caught off guard. Before he could react, he was quickly wrapped around something. The thing was very strong. He felt that it seemed to be a water creature covered with suckers. It's hard to get rid of his tentacles, so what should I do with my own girl?

Zhang Qiling shouted twice: "Girl, girl." But no one responded to him. It was obvious that the girl was not only arrested but also silenced.

Zhang Qiling calmed down and felt where the girl was, but he couldn't feel it at all. Not to mention how anxious he was, Mou tried his best to fight against the tentacle. At this moment, a woman suddenly said: "Stop struggling, it's just a human being." If you want to break free from my shackles, you need to practice for thousands of years."

The surrounding black mist began to split from the middle and swirl to both sides. A charming and alluring woman in dark red clothes fell from the sky. If she hadn't spoken, he wouldn't have been able to tell when she came to him.

After the woman stood still, the surrounding black mist also dissipated. Zhang Qiling saw that what was wrapped around him was an extremely thick octopus leg extending from nowhere to his side. He thought to himself that it was indeed a seafood.

He glared angrily at the seductive woman in front of him, but the woman didn't care how cold his eyes were, and said in a pretentious manner: "Hey, little brother, you are so handsome."

After saying that, he walked up to Zhang Qiling, looked him up and down, and even poked his strong arms and chest and said, "Such a strong body, he must be in good shape."

As he spoke, he raised his fingers and touched his face teasingly and said, "Don't look at me like that, people will be scared."

She looked at Zhang Qiling's reaction, then she shyly pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Brother, you are so calm. It seems that you are not an ordinary human being. In fact, your cold eyes are so charming. You are such a good man. I am really impressed. People like it.”

Zhang Qiling asked directly: "Where is the girl?"

The woman held Zhang Qiling's shoulders, came close to his face and said, "Don't you want to get to know me? Why are you asking that undeveloped little girl? I'm so feminine, don't you like it?"

Zhang Qiling's eyes flashed with cold light, and he said as coldly as a ten thousand-year-old iceberg: "Where is the girl?"

The woman made a disappointed expression and sighed: "Brother, you are so boring. You have such a beautiful woman like me in front of you but you are indifferent. If you insist on finding that kid, well, then you can do it yourself." Find it."

Following the woman's wave of her hand, a huge pool appeared in front of her. There were eight dragons surrounding the pool. The dragon's mouth should be the water outlet. The pool was filled with all kinds of huge shells. The woman said to Zhang Qiling: "You Come and guess which shell your little girl is in. The method is up to you. It's best to find it quickly. The pool will be filled in as long as it takes to burn incense, but the shell will have been submerged before that." She said and sat down. Arriving inside the shell that was larger than a double bed, she waved her hand and an octagonal incense burner with a stick of incense appeared beside the sink. The eight faucets immediately began to fill with water, and she put on a leisurely and lazy posture to watch the excitement.Zhang Qiling glanced at the incense and then turned to look at the shells in the pool. By visual inspection, there were at least hundreds of them, and more than half of them must be able to hide the next person.

After finding the girl, there is still time to rescue the girl from the shell. The stick of incense that the monster mentioned is the ancient timing method, which is about 30 minutes. If the girl is hidden in a small shell that can hide her, eight If you fill all the faucets with water at the same time, it may not even take a quarter of an hour, and both people and shells will be submerged in the water. In fact, the usable time is only 10 minutes at most. If dozens of people are found and turned on, the time is simply not enough. , and over time, even if the girl is not submerged in water, she will lack oxygen in the sealed shell.

He first jumped into the pool and tried to touch a shell that could hide a human-sized shell. He felt it carefully with his two long fingers of his right hand as if it were a mechanism. While he was touching, he thought about other ways to quickly find the girl. The simplest, quickest and most useful thing is to contact the girl as soon as possible. As long as the girl can respond to him, he can find the shell where she is in an instant.

After I was dragged away, I began to feel uneasy and fearful. In the darkness, the thing quickly put me down and let go of me. I tried calling for my brother, but no one paid attention to me. I stretched out my hand to touch Looking around, he found that he was trapped in a small space where his body could only be balled up.

After a while, I vaguely heard some voices, but I couldn't hear them clearly. Then I heard the sound of rumbling water. After a while, I felt a cool swishing sensation under my body. I immediately realized that I seemed to It's already soaked in water.

I groped around in this small space and found that this thing is a structure with upper and lower halves buckled together. This is a seafood area, so this small space is obviously a shell. If something like a shell is closed, it is still difficult to open. You should use a knife to pry it open.

So I took a knife out of my bag and tried to pry it in the middle of the seam of the shell. However, the shell seemed to be glued together with strong glue, and the seam fit tightly. The inner side was extremely smooth, and the knife kept slipping. I poked for a long time, but I didn't even take off the shell skin.

I tried to make a sound with the handle of the knife, but the sound of the water was like the roar of a monster, and the sound of my knock was completely covered.

The air in the shell was getting less and less, and it started to feel suffocating. It was obvious that I couldn't deal with it any more. I closed my eyes and thought about it. My brother and I actually have many ways to sense each other. We must find a way to confront him. talk.

I put my hand on my heart and released my spiritual power to sense my brother. I quickly found his location, but I had never used this method to talk to him. I only tried it. The other hand continued to tap the shell with the knife, a two-pronged approach.

Zhang Qiling was anxious. He activated the spiritual objects he wore to enhance his senses and searched for the girl's signal. He firmly believed that the girl would definitely contact him as long as she was conscious.

Sure enough, when he tried to enhance his hearing, he seemed to hear some knocking sounds, but they were not very clear. He closed his eyes and shouted in his heart: "Girl, girl, girl..."

Suddenly, there was a warm current on the ring finger of his left hand. He opened his eyes and saw a circle of pale golden light surrounding his finger, and a ring in the shape of a rabbit head vaguely appeared. He continued to call the girl, and the ring was The light flashed brighter and brighter, and he knew that the girl was also sensing him. Until the entire ring was clearly visible, Zhang Qiling heard the call of "Brother, brother."

Zhang Qiling immediately asked in her mind: "Is the girl okay? Where are you?"

The girl said happily: "I'm fine. I seem to be in a shell, but I can't open it. I seemed to have heard voices before the sound of running water, but I couldn't hear clearly."

Zhang Qiling asked, "What's the size and shape of the shell?" He heard the sound of the girl putting down a knife, and then she seemed to be groping inside the shell.

After a while, the girl said: "I can only curl up sideways. My upper body can barely rotate. The inside is very smooth. The two ends of the opening have larger arcs and the middle is flatter. It looks like a slightly long shell."

Zhang Qiling started searching in the pool based on the clues given by the girl. If the shells were bigger than the thin and curled-up girl, the range would be reduced a lot. The girl said that she could vaguely hear the voice just now, and the shells would be a bit bigger. Sound insulation, then there is only one such shell near you.

Zhang Qiling walked quickly to the target shell and found that his and the girl's tokens started to flash again. The closer his hand was to the shell, the brighter the light and the flashing more frequently. It should be this one.

It was a slightly oblate shell with brown spots and orange-red fine lines on the surface. Zhang Qiling tapped it with the handle of the knife. Soon there was a similar knocking sound inside the shell in response. He reminded the girl in his heart to go deeper. , the shell seemed to move slightly, and then the girl tapped again in response.

Zhang Qiling raised the unicorn gold knife and struck it horizontally. The tip of the knife was inserted into the gap in the shell. He was afraid of hitting the girl and held on to the handle of the knife. He strictly controlled his strength and pried open a gap in the shell. When his fingers could reach in, he put down the knife and used Use your hands to break open the shell.

The girl lay curled up on her side and looked at him with expectant eyes. The shell was completely opened. Zhang Qiling and the girl stretched out their arms to each other at the same time. The two hugged each other. Zhang Qiling picked up the girl and comforted her in his arms.

Just listen to the woman clapped her hands and said coquettishly: "I found it so quickly, much faster than I expected."

Only then did the girl notice the existence of the woman, turned around and looked over, and said angrily: "Brother, this is what this damn octopus did, right?"

Zhang Qiling said "Yes", and the girl pulled him to indicate that he wanted to come down. After the girl got down to the ground and stood firm, she touched the whip on her waist with her little hand and patted it twice. The dragon scale whip swung towards the person. The woman flew over.
