Chapter 513 Going Deeper (02)

Many times, some things are always unexpected. Originally, they thought that they could meet with their own people when they got here, but when they got here, they found that this place was much bigger and more dangerous than they expected. It was difficult to get together, and even almost died. After fleeing several times, I finally had a chance to join the large army, but it was only after tossing that they discovered that their so-called large army was actually just a team composed of wounded left behind to stop the enemy Well, Liu Xiaotian has persisted here under pressure until now, and he has indeed paid a big price.

"Most of the wounded in our team, one-third of the seriously wounded, the rest can barely persist in fighting, and there are some natives left behind. They seem to be a lot of people, but in fact they have no combat effectiveness. It is okay to fight in positional warfare. It’s hard to cope, but it’s not enough if we charge forward.” Liu Xiaotian shook his head and sighed while speaking, he looked back at the wounded and continued in a low voice, “I’m afraid none of these people can get out by their own ability, unless we can find enough people Get them out, or..."

"I understand..." Si Xuanyi nodded, not allowing him to continue, "Don't worry, I will try my best to get them out of here. I brought you here, and I have the responsibility to bring you out."

Liu Xiaotian nodded, but he knew very well how difficult it was to leave this place, not to mention the sinister environment here, and the ghosts outside were enough for them to drink a pot.

After exchanging information with each other, they realized that the first batch of little devils entered the interior much earlier than they expected, and the number was also larger than they expected. There were at least thirty of them. In fact, finding a group of them The devils who were trapped in the cave when they attacked the enemy's camp were not trapped in different areas exactly as they expected, but a considerable part of them entered the interior through the sealing stone in the first period of time, plus the ones who rushed in after successive battles There are not a few of them, and some of them broke into the melee later. The total number of devils who entered this place was no less than 80 to [-] people. Maybe there was a problem with the number of devils they calculated before, but now it is not the time to delve into it. Regardless of how it was calculated before, how is it consumed?But in the end, the number of devils here is real. Although most of the devils here have been consumed up to now, a considerable part of them still broke in, and it was much earlier than they expected. That is to say, even now Even if the patriarch brought people in, it might not be able to prevent those little devils from destroying the interior.

"How big is this place? How come there are three floors inside and three floors outside, but you can't go to the end?" Zhao Chenggong wondered if they had entered a place that would never end.

Liu Xiaotian shook his head: "I don't know how far it is inside, but I haven't heard any movement inside so far. It can be seen that the depth inside is very deep, and there is no movement."

"It should be the last stretch..." Xiaolu said, "and it won't be too far away."

"How do you know?" Zhao Chenggong asked.

Xiaolu shook her head lightly, she didn't speak, she didn't seem to know what to say, maybe she didn't know at all, she just said it intuitively.

"Prepare three sets of combat supplies for us, we have to go in." Si Xuanyi said.

Liu Xiaotian nodded: "We have seized a lot of supplies. The previous time we wiped out an enemy team of more than a dozen people. They may have been responsible for transporting supplies, and the harvest was very fruitful."

"Gather the supplies from the team that was killed just now." Si Xuanyi said, "We don't know if there will be any little devils coming later, but you still have to guard this place, just in case."

"There should be some ghosts in the woods, but I don't know if they can get here." Liu Xiaotian said, "But you can rest assured that although our group has a lot of wounded, it shouldn't be a problem to guard this place."

"You are full of confidence..." Zhao Chenggong felt that he was a bit blindly optimistic.

"It's not about having confidence, it's about being able to hold on." Liu Xiaotian smiled wryly, "We have to wait for you to come out and transport us out."

This is a big truth. If something goes wrong with them inside, then Liu Xiaotian and his group will basically lose hope of leaving this place. People can come out of it smoothly. Now that the patriarchs are all inside, although the clansmen outside will not be scattered, it may not be so easy to expect them to take the initiative to come in. After all, this is their forbidden area. If you want to break through the taboo to this place It is quite difficult for the aborigines who have listed this place as a forbidden area for generations.

"Hmm..." Si Xuanyi patted Liu Xiaotian on the shoulder, "You did a good job, I'm all relying on you this time."

After this incident, apart from the mission, Si Xuanyi's biggest gain is that he discovered the talent Liu Xiaotian. If he could go back, he must dig this person to his side.

"It's useless to talk too much, and I can't guarantee it. I can only say that I will do my best." Liu Xiaotian said the truth again.

"Very good!" Si Xuanyi nodded, then greeted the others and prepared to leave.

Xiaolu still wanted to follow, but Si Xuanyi firmly disagreed, but it was not safe to stay here after all, after all, most of their combat power had already entered the interior, and it would be easier to protect her by going inside, as no one would be here. Knowing what would happen, if the devils gathered outside and rushed in, it would definitely be more dangerous than inside, so after thinking it over and over again, he agreed, but his plan was to quickly find the patriarch and Yin Lu, and take this By handing over the little girl, it can be regarded as a cure for my own worries, and I don't have to worry about the safety of this girl anymore.

In fact, they didn't have any idea about continuing to walk inside. After all, they didn't know what was going on inside, so they could only follow the direction Liu Xiaotian pointed out. After walking not far, they realized that the situation inside was far more extraordinary than they imagined. Unexpectedly, in front of them was a stone bridge. Except for the smooth surface, the stone bridge had different widths. The wide part was ten meters, and the narrow part was less than one meter. There were bottomless abyss on both sides. There is almost nothing to see in any direction other than the stone bridge under their feet. It is all endless darkness. Being in it feels like walking into an endless abyss, as if they are slowly leaving the world they know and entering a world they don't understand at all. Space.

"What's the matter with this place? Why is there only such a narrow bridge? If it is attacked by surprise..." Zhao Chenggong, who was walking on this bridge, felt trembling. Above, you can't see the head, the left, the front, the front, the front, and the left, and there are all bottomless cliffs, which feels different.

"It's not too deep...it's just an illusion caused by the darkness." Si Xuanyi said, "If there is enough light, this place won't be so mysterious."

Because the black ones can't see the situation below, they feel that it is bottomless. This really makes sense. Zhao Chenggong still felt uneasy, and he took out a bullet casing and threw it down, but they didn't hear any bullet casing hit. The sound of a hard object didn't even echo at all.

"Isn't it over yet?" Zhao Chenggong's face was a bit ugly. There are only two possibilities, either the end is not over, or the voice of the end cannot be heard, but no matter which possibility, it means that the place is deep enough for them It's hard to imagine, not only him and the others feel hairy all over, what the hell is this place?

"This was excavated on a natural stone beam. Of course, the stone beam cannot grow endlessly. It should be excavated with the help of this stone beam. I don't know where it will extend to." Ye Feng said.

"This kind of project is very difficult, so it shouldn't be too long." Si Xuanyi said.

"I hope it won't be too long..." With what happened just now, Zhao Chenggong didn't even dare to get close to the edge. In his view, the endless cliff was like a big black mouth, which would be swallowed if he got close.

"It can't be too short, otherwise we can't hear the voice inside." Ye Feng said.

Zhao Chenggong feels that this place is very similar to the giant tree in the mountain I went to before, and they all move in places where they can't step on the ground.

Si Xuanyi kept burning torches all night and threw away the leftovers. The light was somewhat brighter than before. He took a careful look at the stone beams of this generation. Although they seized a few flashlights and some flares, They put them away for use at critical moments, so the usual lighting equipment is mainly torches. When they came in, they took some spare torches from Liu Xiaotian and the others, so they were quite sufficient.

"There's really no sound at all..." The quietness of this place made Zhao Chenggong feel flustered.

"No sound means we are safe." Ye Feng squatted down and looked ahead carefully, "It seems that there is a fork in the road."

After walking forward not far, they found a fork in the road, and another stone beam extended in a different direction. If it wasn't for Ye Feng's good eyesight, they might not have seen it.

"This... damn... which way should we go?" Standing at the fork in the road, Zhao Chenggong didn't find the mark left by the old man, and there were no footprints to be found on the bare stone beam.

"This way..." Ye Feng knelt down and looked carefully at his feet, pointing in a direction.

"Are you sure?" Si Xuanyi asked, he couldn't see how Ye Feng made a judgment.

"There are some tiny marks..." Ye Feng said, "This side is smoother, it should be worn out after years of walking."

Si Xuanyi couldn't tell if this was the case, but he believed in Ye Feng, so he just nodded and said nothing.

"Your ancestors belonged to ants, right? They like digging holes so much." Zhao Chenggong said to Xiaolu.

Xiaolu ignored him, but looked in another direction thoughtfully, but looked at everything except the darkness.

"Let's go..." Si Xuanyi greeted Xiaolu.

A few people continued to move forward along the stone beam, but they encountered a fork in the road again in a short time. Ye Feng still checked the details to find the direction, but as time went by, there were more and more fork roads ahead, and soon they turned around with their heads covered. up.

"We basically don't have a sense of direction now, and we don't know where we are." Ye Feng was also confused, "I can't go on like this, I don't know where I will go."

"Is there any way... I can't see the front, back, left, and right, so I don't know if I'm going right. It's so strange. Why can't I see the marks left by Lao Tzu? Could it be that they didn't go here?" Zhao Chenggong squatted there Let's talk while resting.

"We didn't find any other way to go when we came in. Even if we realized something was wrong now, it's too late to go back? There's no way to go back at all." Si Xuanyi shook his head, "Let's use a flare, let's go first Let’s see what’s going on here.”

"I don't know if the height here is enough." Ye Feng took out a flare and hit it. If the height is not high enough, it will not be able to fly at all, and it may not explode somewhere. If the position is too low, the lighting effect will be poor or even It doesn't work.

Ye Feng's worries were not superfluous. The flare bounced off the roof of the cave and exploded about 20 meters above the sky. All of a sudden, the whole cave was illuminated. What was displayed in front of them was a very huge cave system. It is composed of this kind of stone beams under their feet. These stone beams intersect and overlap each other to form a huge spider web-like structure. They are in it, and they can't tell which side is the correct direction, and they can't even see They couldn't figure out where they came from, because they couldn't see the hole they came from before.

"Damn... what kind of place is this?" Zhao Chenggong was stunned. In fact, other people's expressions were no worse than his. This was completely beyond any situation they could think of. This situation has basically surpassed their tolerance range.

The flare gradually became smaller, and finally fell into the abyss under their feet. From the corner of their eyes, they saw the stone beams extending down like a stone forest below, like an underground stone forest. They couldn't see how deep it was below. .

"Trouble, which side should we go?" Zhao Chenggong finally figured out what kind of situation they were facing.

"We can't even see the edge now, which means that this place is big enough. If we can't see the entrance and exit, we can't determine the direction. If we can't determine the direction, we don't know how to choose the route. Even if we can choose us It is impossible for the flares to last to the end of the road."

"Let's look for it. It's impossible for the old man to leave nothing behind." Si Xuanyi was also quite helpless. Who would have thought that he would face such a situation again?Regardless of how to go from southeast to northwest?This is undoubtedly another huge problem before them.
