463 Chapter 463 Siguniang Mountain (23)
Zhang Rishan looked at the stone pink leather bag and asked: "Clan leader, what is this?"

Seeing that my brother had no reaction, I said to him: "Please find more pockets. These need to be packed separately. They will be used soon."

Zhang Rishan looked at Zhang Qiling again, and Zhang Qiling said to him: "Tell everyone, I found it."

Zhang Rishan immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I'll get ready right now."

After saying that, Zhang Rishan walked away. Zhang Qiling pulled the girl and asked her to be close to him. With his other hand, he held the strap of the stone-pink leather bag that had been pierced by the knife. They walked back to the resting area together. He squatted down half-crouched, while He poked the bag on the ground and asked the girl to sit down on the ground next to him.

We waited here for a short while. Everyone stopped searching and took a break. Brother Bai Hao and sister Liyue also came back from the side where they were guarding the bad guy.

As she walked, Sister Liyue rummaged through her bag to find several small, dense cloth bags she had brought with her. Zhang Rishan also collected some various storage bags from everyone and placed them around us.

Zhang Rishan put down the small bag and immediately helped his brother hold the stone pink leather bag in place to fix it. Sister Liyue had also opened a small cloth bag to face the hole in the leather bag.

When my brother saw that they were all ready to pack the stone powder, he stood up and bent down. He placed one hand on the bag and held the handle of the knife tightly with the other hand and slowly twitched out of the bag. Soon the tip of the long knife pierced the bag. After retreating into the leather bag, the stone powder flowed out smoothly, like a trickle. After a while, a small bag of stone powder was filled.

The leather bag was a little soft. Zhang Rishan hugged the stone pink leather bag firmly and said to Zhang Qiling: "Chief, leave it to me." He took it.

Sister Liyue tied up the newly packed small bag, and Zhang Rishan continued to pour powder into the bag. He filled a few more bags one after another and gave them to Zhang Qiling. Zhang Qiling took two bags and squatted next to the girl. He got down, stuffed a packet of powder into the girl's small bag, and hung the other packet on the buckle outside the girl's small bag.

Li Yue took the bag of small stone powder and said, "Eighth Master, take one, and Fifth Master will give it to you."

Qi Tiezui opened the zipper, reached into his pocket, pinched it, twirled the stone powder with his fingers and asked, "Where will the stone powder made by Qilin be used?"

Bai Hao said to him: "Looking at the environment, this is obviously to prevent others."

Qi Tiezui said: "Those?" He looked around and suddenly realized: "Yes, yes, where there is such a stone, the branches of this tree are very honest. Those branches are afraid of this stone. So, the entrance of the cave is really there." Is it wrapped in the tree?"

Bai Hao said cheerfully: "That's not true, but this tree brother is not very friendly to us, so we have to make some preparations in advance."

Li Yue said: "These small bags are full and put on the body for later use. I will cover these with leather cloth later."

Bai Hao looked at the leather cloth with two holes in it and touched the hole on the upper part, and said with a pity on his face: "The texture of this piece of leather is not bad, the top layer is yellow cowhide, full-grain leather, it is a pity that it is torn. , but you can still take it back and renovate it, right Xiaoxun."

I was looking at the piece of leather cloth eagerly. When he heard what he said, I smiled and said, "Yes, it can be modified. You can put it away for me when you use it."

Bai Hao smiled and said, "I'll keep it for you. I'm still in the mood to play. It's good that I didn't scare that kid."

I pouted and raised my eyebrows and said, "I could tell something was wrong with him as soon as he came over. I had been on guard for a long time, so why did he scare me? But he is indeed very strong and very fast. I'm just a little surprised. Also, why do I just want to play? This is a hobby. You also said that such good materials should not be wasted. You can still make a lot of things. I am saving resources. "

Bai Hao still smiled and said: "Okay, what our Xiaoxun said is so reasonable."

I raised my head and said with a smile, "Of course."

Qi Tiezui asked Zhang Qiling: "Clan leader, we have to prepare for evacuation and have to get things from under the base. Will the time be a little tight?"

Zhang Qiling didn't respond. Bai Hao said: "Let's clean the entrance of the cave first and go in to explore the situation inside. Don't go too deep. Just make sure it's safe to hide inside for the time being. As for the box, The mechanism of the box must be activated before it can be opened, so he and I went to the base to get the things. After you evacuate first, when the evacuation is almost complete, we will open the box, grab the things and rush over as soon as possible. "

I know what Brother Bai Hao said makes sense, but I'm still confused. Bai Hao patted me and said, "We're only a few steps away. Are you still worried about our speed?"

Zhang Rishan said: "That's it. Then I will take people to clean out the entrance of the cave first."

Bai Hao said to him: "I'll tell you the location."

As they spoke, the two brought some brothers over, smeared their bodies with stone powder, and took a few spare stone powder packets. They lit torches and went to the entrance with the tools.

My brother must have agreed with what Brother Bai Hao said, so I had no choice but to acquiesce to this plan of action, leaned on my brother's arm and stood still.

In front of the big tree, Bai Hao patted some stone powder on his hand, stretched out his hand towards the slender branches and pressed them up. Those snake-like branches began to "slither" away like a snake encountering a realgar. Bai Hao said: "Just deal with these small ones like this." He raised his hand and moved it in the air a few times and said: "The entrance is in this area. The depth is not yet clear. Let's clean it up until we can see it."

Some people around said "I understand", some said "Okay", and some said: "Master Bai, leave it to us."

They also imitated Bai Hao, patting the stone powder on their hands and pressing it on the branches. After a while, most of the branches were driven back. Those branches retreated layer by layer, and they could vaguely see what was hidden inside. It was a very dark area.However, the branches that were wrapped inside became thicker and thicker. The branches close to the black hole were almost as thick as an arm. Bai Hao applied stone powder and touched it, but the big guy didn't react at all. Maybe it was because it was too big and wrapped tightly with too many turns. , feeling that the thick branch was not afraid of the stone powder, so he took the long knife he just pulled out of his bag and slashed it at the branch.

There was a "bang" sound, and the knife got stuck on the branch. Qi Tiezui, who was resting on the side, looked at it with great interest. He also said "Ouch" with all his strength, "This knife is fine. It's not broken, but it's broken in half."

Bai Hao looked close to the edge of the knife. He bent his fingers and tapped on a branch nearby. He chuckled and said, "This tree is pretty hard."

Bai Hao pulled out the knife and saw that the metal on the blade had been cracked. Someone next to him said: "We didn't even cut the saw just now. If Master Bai changes to a weapon that can cut iron like mud, this thing will It can be cut off with just one knife."

Bai Hao replied rudely: "Don't tell me, I can definitely change to a better knife, but this is fine, give it to me."

The man handed over the stone powder, Bai Hao grabbed a small handful and said to them: "You guys stand back."

Several people stepped back one after another. Bai Hao sprinkled stone powder on the cut edge of the branch. The stone powder fell and landed on the fracture. The branch began to tremble. Bai Hao also stepped back a few steps and saw that the branch kept trembling, and many surrounding branches also began to tremble. They were all shaken by this wave of vibration and began to relax.

Just listen to Zhang Rishan shout: "Be careful."

The branch cut by the knife suddenly broke in front of him, and many surrounding branches bounced up like rubber bands that had been tightened and suddenly broke, fluttering around. Some people in front of the tree jumped away, and some immediately bent down and lowered their heads. Yes, some were surprised and sighed.

Now the entrance of the cave was almost exposed to everyone, with only a few sporadic poles still hanging in front of the entrance. Brother Bai Hao looked inside and asked Zhang Qiling to go over and take a look.

My brother was always looking over there. When I called him, I felt his arms tightening and he was about to get up, but my little head was still pressed on his arms. I turned my head towards him to see if he meant to go over and take a look myself. I twisted around, rested my chin on his arm and said to him: "Go ahead, be careful."

He winked at me and said "yes" softly, took a bag of stone powder and got up and walked over.

They said something in front of the tree, cleared the hole a little, and then lined up to go in.

I looked at the entrance of the cave and felt like I had been waiting for a long time. Finally, I saw my brother walking out of the cave. However, he did not come over but walked directly to the box with Bai Hao. Zhang Rishan trotted over and told us to evacuate into the cave.

Qi Tiezui asked him curiously: "What's going on there?"

Zhang Rishan looked hesitant and said: "Well, it's safer than this."

Qi Tie's face dropped and he said, "Isn't it the same as if you didn't say anything?"

Zhang Rishan added: "You will know later. Why are you asking so many questions? Hurry up."

Zhang Rishan picked up Qi Tiezui's things and dragged him away. Sister Liyue was ready to leave at any time early in the morning. She took my hand and said to me, "Let's go so they can get their things back quickly."

I obediently followed Sister Liyue towards the entrance of the big tree, but I kept turning my head to look at them under the amber monster egg. My brother's attention was already focused on the box. He was ready to take action at any time. Brother Bai Hao Wave to us, meaning "go, go, go."

Sister Liyue and I walked to the tree hole. This was also a hole that could be passed through by one person at a time. There were still a few people lined up at the hole, waiting to go in.

Soon it was our turn to go in. I knew I couldn't delay, but I was so torn in my heart that I always wanted to see them okay before I felt at ease.

Sister Liyue knew my temperament, so she pulled me and got in. The short section at the beginning of the hole was straight, slightly sloping downwards. There was a turn about ten meters away, and there was a corner after the turn. At the opening of the hole that opened downward, the person in front was pulling the rope to climb down. I looked at the entrance of the tree hole, and my heart was pounding. After a while, I heard changes outside.

Bai Hao saw that Liyue and Xiaoxun had entered the cave. After waiting for a while, he said to Zhang Qiling, "They should be around the corner."

Zhang Qiling held the carved stone box with his left hand and lifted it slightly, and reached under the box with his right hand. There was a metal wire connected to the center of the bottom of the box. The metal wire went straight to the center of the base below, which is also the one that affects the mechanism. The wire that connects the metal wire to the bottom of the stone box is hidden in a groove in the center of the bottom of the stone box. He needs to turn his palm upwards, and then use his long two fingers to insert the groove into the inside of the stone box to unlock it. .

Bai Hao clenched his dagger and said to him, "Let's begin."

Zhang Qiling immediately inserted his fingers into the groove in the center of the stone box. It seemed that he was motionless, but his fingers twisted left and right in the center of the stone box, avoiding the overlapping fine details inside the box. Like dark threads of silk.

His fingertips hooked and probed, avoiding the extremely fine threads around him. His fingertips were slightly separated and clamped the buckle hanging the metal wire. He gently clamped it, and followed the metal wire like a piano. There was a crisp sound like a string breaking. Zhang Qiling used two fingers to twist open the metal buckle in the stone box. The silk thread popped out instantly, but was instantly caught by Zhang Qiling's slender fingers and pulled to his fingertips.

Zhang Qiling held the box, clamped the metal wire tightly and carefully prepared to get up and run. He shouted to Bai Hao: "Run!"

Zhang Qiling let go of the clamped metal wire, and there was a sudden "clacking" and "rumbling" sound all around. The gravel that had just fallen on the ground began to roll restlessly, and the branches that had been driven away began to "squeak" like tentacles. They came back from all directions.
