The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 980 What is the truth
With Sai Li's rich knowledge and the monk's superior physical fitness, Lin Tianci can live in any plane without worrying about eating and drinking.

"Let's not talk about eating mushrooms. I'm bringing some food. You should tell me if there is any way to let us go out."

Brother Lin interrupted Sally's science popularization, because if she was allowed to continue, she would probably tell all the historical materials and common sense of the Underdark Region.

"Let's see if there is a hole or something nearby. You must be in a very deep place underground. I don't recommend you go into the water and continue to float along the groundwater. The ghost knows where you will go. That can only be regarded as a last resort. .”

As he said that, the sapphire brooch in Brother Lin's hand flicked, and the sapphire brooch floated up by itself:
"I looked around. Judging from the traces of this cave, it should have been dug by the ancient elves. There may be some other passages hidden."

The sapphire brooch that Sally gave had a lot of detection and detection capabilities attached to it, which was much better than Lin Tianci, who only had divine thoughts and detection talismans.

Since Sai Li wanted to walk around, Brother Lin simply returned to the campfire.

The complexions of the other three people have improved a lot at this time, and the large amount of heat taken away by soaking in the water has also returned to normal under the heating of the campfire. In addition, the wet clothes are slowly drying, which is indeed much more comfortable than when they just got out of the water .

When Lin Tianci came over, Laventan had just introduced Celie in the sapphire brooch to Michelia and Marshall. The girl always thought that Celie was a 'little person' living in the sapphire brooch.

Saying so suddenly has a bit of a fairy tale.

Seeing Lin Tianci come back from a stroll, Michelia nodded to him in thanks:

"Thanks to Mr. Lin for your help, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

Lin Tianci was about to wave his hand and say a few polite words, only to hear Michelia add another sentence:
"Excuse me, are you married? I'm still single."

"..."

What on earth is this girl thinking?
Brother Lin's luck comes very suddenly every time, this time...

He made an exception.

"I'm sorry, Miss Michelia, I already have a girl I like, and I'll go back after I finish my business here."

Michelia picked up a piece of mushroom crumbs and threw it into the bonfire, muttering with empty eyes:

"Why is it that every time I fall in love with the owner..."

He looked like he had been severely hit, even if he almost died just now, it was not as hurtful as Brother Lin's words.

Little Fatty Marshall leaned over to the side of Lin Tianci who was a bit confused and said in a low voice:

"Ms. Michelia has been in love three times, and she blew it up within a week of all of them. Later, she was introduced to blind dates 11 times, and 10 of them were in the middle of the conversation. The man ran away."

"Another time?"

"After another blind date ended, that person went directly to another city by car and never came back."

This is too miserable...

Michelia is not ugly, she is a very heroic girl, so it is not so difficult to find a partner, right?
When it came to gossip, Laventan also seemed very interested, and she also came over and said:
"I heard that it was because Michelia was naturally expressionless, and many people felt particularly stressed when she was with her, so it didn't work. I remember Grandpa Macaulay said that she is 30 years old this year, no wonder don't worry. "

thirty?

As far as appearance is concerned, Michelia looks only a year or two older than Lin Tianci. Maybe it is because she is born with facial paralysis and less expression, so she basically has no wrinkles?

Having said that, in terms of the average life expectancy of the residents of the multiverse world, there are really a small number of people who are not married at the age of 30. After all, the level of productivity here cannot be compared with the earth in the previous life. In the 21st century, there are many old people who are 80 to [-] years old. Anyone who can live past sixty here is considered a long life.

So people who are not married at the age of 30 must be in a hurry...

But Lin Tianci didn't want to sacrifice himself, he still had at least a thousand years to live, and it wouldn't be too late to get married in a few hundred years.

In order to ease the embarrassment and change the subject, he simply said to everyone:
"Are you hungry? I've got sandwiches here."

I heard that the college selection will last a whole day, and sometimes it will last two days. After all, it is quite time-consuming to walk up from the ground step by step, and you may encounter monsters. Everyone also brought some food.

Brother Lin’s Dimensional Pocket has a lot of food prepared by Butler Macaulay, from sandwiches that can be eaten at any time, to fresh vegetables, fruits and even meat. Even if little brother Lin wants to cook a hot pot, he can provide it here.

Because the living space is really limited, the local meat in the Agnostic Realm is a very scarce resource, and there are not many places to engage in animal husbandry, so the sandwiches Lin Tianci brought out were only a thin slice of ham, which seemed Especially shabby.

This is not bad. I am afraid that many poorer families have never eaten meat. The closest taste is mushrooms.

Lin Tianci distributed the sandwiches for everyone to fill their stomachs. At this time, Sai Li floated back with the sapphire brooch.

And there is good news.

–‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

The hollow where Lin Tianci and the others are located is about four meters high from the top to the floor, and the area is more than 100 square meters, which is not too big.And most of the open space is occupied by mushrooms of various colors, and the view is actually not good.

However, Sai Li's sapphire brooch could ignore this level of cover, and she just wandered around the mushroom pile for a couple of times before discovering something.

A...should be a door, right?

Lin Tianci was not sure, because he had never seen such a weird door.

It is hidden among a large number of mushrooms, clinging to the ground, it is more like a sewer manhole cover than a door.Its overall circular diameter is about one meter, the whole body is made of metal, and there is no sign of decay.

Under the guidance of Sai Li, Lin Tianci hung up the thick layer of moss and mushrooms nearby with Qingyun, and the exposed metal part is still as clean as new, without any scars left by the years.

There is no doubt that this is something left by the ancient elves. At present, only their metallurgical technology can produce metal products that will not decay for thousands of years, and will still shine as long as the dust is wiped off.

The more definite evidence is that this circular metal plate is also engraved with a tree-like engraving, surrounded by a circular frame, densely engraved with many unknown runes.

This is the World Tree, the most important belief among the ancient elves, and none of them.

Lin Tianci has seen this kind of belief symbol belonging to the ancient elves several times, and he can recognize it without Saili reminding him.

"As far as I can judge, this may be an emergency passage entrance arranged in the mine. The ancient elves are indeed conceited and arrogant, but they are very considerate about safety. This is because they think that every elf is unique and belongs to the same family. Life is also put in the first consideration, and the evolution of this habit has caused the elves to always be xenophobic and not very accepting of outsiders..."

"Please get to the point."

"Okay, well, the point is that although the mines of the ancient elves are strong, they have also anticipated how to escape in case of an emergency, so the layout of the emergency passages has been designed at the beginning of the mine excavation, you see The world tree on this round metal plate is not only a symbol of their belief, but also represents different meanings such as 'channel' and 'connection' in the ancient elf language, so you can also see it in many ancient elves I saw something similar on the teleportation array."

"So it's safe down here?"

"Not only is it safe, it is very likely that this part of the emergency passage will lead directly to the surface or other underground shelters. In any case, it is much more reliable than waiting for rescue here."

Just looking at the spectacular scene of the collapse before, one can guess that the surface is now a mess, and even a large part of the surface may fall off.

Lin Tianci and the others are currently in a hollow that has not been detected by the locals at all. It is not feasible to wait for rescue here. After excluding the original route and returning, the only thing left is to continue to float forward along the underground water veins. Who knows where it will go.

Their current location is already extremely deep underground, maybe two or three kilometers away from the surface.

In the desperate situation, it seems that there is no choice at all.

Lin Tianci looked back at Michelia, who also heard Saili's words. Although she didn't quite understand the words in the words, such as ancient elves, she could also hear that it might be a safe zone below, so when Brother Lin nodded when he looked over, expressing his agreement to walk this road together.

"Then how to open it?"

As soon as the words fell, the sapphire brooch made a series of beautiful singing tones. Immediately afterwards, Lin Tianci saw that the round metal plate that was inlaid on the ground was so firm that there was no gap at all. It gradually faded and finally disappeared, revealing A hole with a diameter of one meter.

"Many things in the ancient elves are voice-activated, and most of the facilities can be opened by saying 'open the door' in the ancient elf language."

Lin Tianci looked into the cave, and what Sai Li said just now seemed to activate the original layout inside. The opening of the cave just opened was indeed pitch black, but soon a soft golden light lit up below.

Visually, the height from the entrance to the bottom of the cave is less than four meters, and there is lighting, and Saili said that it may be an emergency passage left by the ancient elves, so it should be relatively safe.

"I'll go down and have a look first, and you can come down when I'm okay."

As he said that, Lin Tianci jumped down from the entrance of the cave, stepped on the cave wall with a little help, and landed lightly on the ground.

Traces of artificial modification can be clearly seen here. Both sides of the walls are full of regular and orderly decorative patterns. The entire tunnel is a very standard square. For the time being, no traps or monsters have been seen, but the tunnel is in the There was a turn about 30 meters ahead, and Lin Tianci could not see further.

"Be careful not to touch the patterns on the wall. Although the ancient elves generally don't arrange rolling stones in emergency passages, no one can say for sure. They were just like you monks back then. They were all idle and painful."

What nonsense are you talking about!
