481 Chapter 481 Siguniang Mountain (41)

"Crack, click, click... click, click... click, click..."

The ice around us and under our feet was making such noises, and the sound echoed in the quiet and echoing ice cave. The ears were filled with this heart-wrenching sound, which was so painful that it made one’s scalp burn. tingling.

I was already extremely nervous by the sound. I pinched my fingers as if they had grown on the ground. I didn’t dare to move my body at all. I had been doing this for a short period of time and felt that my body was numb. It's a bit stiff, we are all in this still state now.

Bai Hao and I have been staring at the main trunk of one of the spiritual blood silk trees in the spiritual power network wall I set up in front of us.

I asked him softly: "Brother Bai Hao, do you feel that our current angle is a bit crooked?"

The main trunk of the big tree with twisted spiritual blood threads is extremely straight. Originally, the angle where it intersected with the ice surface was a standard 90-degree right angle, but at this moment, the angle has obviously changed. One side is more and the other is less. We are gradually moving towards an acute angle. The direction is tilted.

Bai Hao squinted his eyes and looked at the tree trunk, paused, sighed slightly and said: "The angle has gone too far, and the ice surface has been breaking. Just now, I was worried that it would become like this. Judging from the current situation, it has already developed. It’s as worrying as it is, and it’s quite pessimistic.”

When he said this, I felt a little drumbeat in my heart, and I asked him: "Then... how long can this last?"

Bai Hao raised the corner of his mouth and softly said "ha", and said in a helpless voice: "It's only a matter of minutes before we fall. Please hold on to my brother and don't let go."

My heart suddenly trembled, and I whispered "Ah" softly. In order to prevent him from making too big movements, my two small hands slowly reached to the corners of his clothes, and then I grabbed a large handful of clothes without any ceremony. Fabric in hand.

Seeing this, Bai Hao squinted his eyes and asked me softly, "Are you scared?"

I said "yes" with certainty, and said to myself that I am not that good at water. If I were asked to dive in a clear water, I would have to bite the bullet and panic, let alone this water area now. After all, it was a nightmare, so how could I not be afraid?

Brother Bai Hao gently stroked my head to comfort me. He pursed his lips and looked at me and said, "The height of the ice layer from the water below is almost two meters. If you include the thickness of the ice surface, it is as high as a two-story duplex." .

To leave here, you can pull a rope, balance your body, and go down slowly one by one. You should not be injured, and then quickly move away from the area where the ice is about to break. It will not take long to evacuate, but the premise is that the following is the most Better is flat ground.

As long as the water source is deep enough, just use this as a three-meter diving platform to jump directly. However, the water source must be clear and there must be no debris. "

I listened to him attentively, hesitating and trying to say something, but Brother Bai Hao said it clearly, clearly, and made sense. For a moment, I didn’t know what to ask. I had to listen first.

Brother Bai Hao also made an analogy: "We are now trapped on the deck of a ship that has tilted in the sea. We should indeed leave here before the ship breaks and sinks, but it is not a last resort. , you can’t jump off easily yet.”

I opened my mouth slightly and said "Uh" in a daze, "Are you trying to tell me that no matter whether you escape in advance or let nature take its course, as long as you fail to grasp the opportunity to escape, you will definitely be in danger?" no?"

Bai Hao nodded and said, "The water is so filthy now, and there are so many poisonous things floating in it. If I jump in, I won't know what I stepped on.

This water should have a temperature below zero. There are ice surfaces that are about to break nearby. There seems to be no other ice surface suitable for living around. Once you get down there, you will only be able to soak in the water. This is to isolate the poison as much as possible. , it turns back into a lake of clear and non-toxic water. The low temperature of the water will also cause the blood to flow from the periphery of the body to the center, causing the human body to have symptoms of muscle atrophy. Think about it, people cannot control their bodies and have been soaked in water without water. What will happen in the water on the shore? "

I said, "Even if you don't freeze to death, your body will lose power if your body's heat is exhausted, your physical energy will gradually be exhausted, and you will eventually sink and drown."

Bai Hao said: "Even if we can pull each other to float on the water, the time we can wait for is limited. If a person is soaking in this kind of water with several degrees below zero, unless he is in good health, there will be more than ten people. It’s about 10 minutes until the body can’t bear it anymore, and it’s about 3 minutes if it’s worse when you’re not used to the cold water and the shock doesn’t recover.”

I said and then said: "After entering the water, I found a suitable place nearby to log in. There is no heating here, and it will freeze into popsicles in a short time. But we don't have to wait until then, they won't let us wait too long. , if it really takes too long, we will definitely be notified."

Bai Hao said: "This is not what I am most worried about. I am thinking that if we go down, we must master the balance one by one. The ice surface should break and collapse in the process, so what is left on the ice and what is still under the ice If you don’t run away, what do you think will happen?”

I naturally thought of this situation and said: "But it's okay to stay here. Sooner or later we have to go down, and sooner or later the ice will collapse. We can only adapt to changes."

You put it like that, I'm really worried that if they happen to turn back, it would be worse if this place collapses just after they get here. We have made preparations to go down, but they are unprepared. I think they are still a little far away from us. It's far away, and there doesn't seem to be any sign of turning back. Why don't we do it first. "

Bai Hao looked at me with doubt on his face and said, "Do it? How do you want to do it?"

I leaned close to him and whispered: "The ice will definitely collapse. If it collapses on its own, it may break into pieces, and we will have no place to stay. The broken ice may also scratch people, so we must take action in advance to make the ice surface relatively intact." Just a little, enough for us to wait here." Bai Hao said, "You want to fix the ice surface?"

I kept my mosquito voice and said to him: "I have arranged so many spiritual silk trees, and I will use some spiritual power to extend the roots below, and set up a net bag-like barrier under the ice to cover them. This should prevent the ice from falling." The damage is so serious that even if it breaks into pieces, it still remains in my pocket. It won't fall apart. If I drop it and put it in some water again, it will slowly freeze again, right?

The ice also has a certain thickness. It is cushioned below us, and there is a spiritual network to support the shock absorption. We just need to master the balance and fall steadily and naturally, so as not to make them feel weird. "

Seeing that I was getting more confident as I talked, Bai Hao gently patted the top of my head and said, "You little guy, that's fine. Then let's do it."

I now had a countermeasure, and my mood suddenly brightened. I smiled, and I was very confident in making gestures to release spiritual power. I quietly made a plan of the distribution of spiritual blood silk trees in front of me, and circled the plan like a painting. I walked out of our location, extended the roots of the surrounding spiritual blood silk trees to our feet and wove them into a network, and started doing what I envisioned step by step.

I quickly arranged it, and also outlined the isolation belt of the underwater channel. I used tree roots to circle a hollow mesh channel that could connect to the channel that could sense their spiritual power. After a while, just like blowing that Plant a long balloon to expand the central space of the tree root network channel, and inject a spiritual channel filled with water. When my brother and the others tell me the direction of the hole, we can leave here and go to the next stop.

After Zhang Qiling scanned the entire stone chamber, he found several small bottles containing trace amounts of spiritual flowers. They were all solidified mixed pastes containing various substances, and Li Yue collected them.

During the search, Zhang Qiling discovered that some spiritual threads had penetrated under the stone table and gathered in the center under the stone table. The spiritual threads were constantly rotating around the ground.

Li Yue said: "Is there something else in here? It doesn't feel like there is a spiritual flower."

As soon as they finished speaking, the expressions of Li Yue and Zhang Qiling changed. Li Yue said, "What is that, Ling...the color of Lingsi..."

I saw some black smoke-like things coming out from the cracks in the stone bricks on the ground. It was entangled with the red and gold spiritual threads. The originally bright red and gold colors also became dim at this moment. The silk threads became increasingly turbid due to the black smoke.

Li Yue said: "This seems to be Jian's corpse poison. Could it be that the mechanism was turned on just now and it was leaked?"

Zhang Qiling stared at Lingsi and Heiyan wondering what he was thinking, but his expression became extremely serious. Li Yue even felt that his face was a little pale, and the surrounding atmosphere instantly became very depressing.

After being stunned for a moment, Li Yue tried to call him twice, but Zhang Qiling just stared at the spiritual thread and black smoke, as if waiting for something.

The two people stood in front of the stone table and stared at the changes in the spiritual threads and gas. At the same time, the dragon scales on both of their bodies flickered, and strands of pale golden spiritual threads flew towards the group of spiritual threads under the stone table.

When the pale golden spirit thread that just flew over touched the red spirit blood thread, the number of spirit blood threads in the spirit thread group suddenly increased suddenly, and the light emitted by the spirit thread group in front of him became dazzling again, and the state of black smoke was produced. There was a sudden change, from green smoke to smoke, and gradually turned gray visible to the naked eye.

The black smoke changed from dark gray to light gray. The light gray smoke ball was mixed with light gold and red stars, and then the spiritual thread group continued to change the black poisonous smoke that was still leaking.

Zhang Qiling saw that the girl's spiritual blood could indeed decompose the toxins in the corpse poison, but it felt that it was not completely detoxified, and some of it was fused together. It might just be because of the ratio of blood and toxins. He knew that the girl could detoxify this kind of poison. Poison is a good thing for the girl, but it also shows that her worries are indeed correct.

Liyue called him again: "Zhang Qiling?"

Only then did Zhang Qiling let out an obvious sigh of relief. He knelt down and reached under the spiritual silk mass to touch the stone seal facing him.

After a moment he said: "Open it."

Li Yue and him each grabbed one side of the stone slab and began to lift it up, but they didn't know how much black poisonous smoke was still underneath, so they lifted it very carefully.

Lifting up the slate, they seemed to have reached a consensus in an instant. They just opened a small gap and then paused. Black smoke began to come out from the gap in the slate, but as soon as the black poisonous smoke came out, it was ejected. The silk ball was intercepted and blocked the entrance of the cave. The spiritual silk gathered the purified gray smoke into a whole ball, and squeezed the smoke ball into the hole along the seams of the stone slabs, and soon they all rushed in.

Zhang Qiling glanced at Li Yue, meaning "let go", and buckled the slate again.

Li Yue said: "This is a good idea. Wait a little longer. Ten minutes should be enough."

Zhang Qiling stood up and leaned against the stone table, folded his arms and closed his eyes, as if he was planning to rest for a while. Li Yue took a deep breath helplessly and leaned aside to wait.
