Crossing the wilderness to survive, starting with a broken kitchen knife
Chapter 199: Digging a Tunnel, Black Snake
Soon, Zhang Shi finally dug out a passage that was large enough for him to pass through. He climbed up cautiously, for fear of disturbing some unknown creature. After all, he was in a completely unknown environment, so there was nothing wrong with being cautious.
When he climbed out of the hole completely, he found himself in a spacious space. There were obvious traces of artificial chiseling inside, but it was not new. It looked like it had been abandoned for a long time.
Zhang Shi took out the oil lamp and used the light to suddenly find a person lying in front of him. Zhang Shi took a closer look and immediately recognized the golden armor. Just in case, Zhang Shi took off the opponent's helmet and confirmed that the opponent was Zhao Feng. Then he relaxed and checked on him.
Judging from the conditions of this sealed cave, Zhao Feng should have been staying here since he was swallowed by the earth beast and has always been in a coma.
Zhang Shi shook his head vigorously, took out a bottle of pure water and fed it to him, and then woke up Zhao Feng. After waking up, Zhao Feng observed the situation around him and then sighed heavily.
"Stone, let's meet again in the underworld!"
Zhang Shi had a dark look on his face, and then told him all about his experience after waking up. He also asked about Zhao Feng's situation and learned that he had indeed been in a coma and knew nothing about everything. Reluctantly, the two of them ate some food and drank some water, then took this space as the starting point and began to dig upward without any goal.
The excavation lasted several hours, with the two men taking turns working to maintain their strength. Both Zhang Shi and Zhao Feng understood that they must find a way to the outside world as soon as possible, otherwise even if they have enough food and water, they will be in trouble due to lack of air.
As they dug deeper, they discovered that the underground space was far more complex than they imagined. They have been digging upward for a long time, but there has been nothing but dirt above, and there has been no progress.
Suddenly, Zhang Shi dug something hard. He stopped the shovel in his hand and carefully dug up the soil around it. It was a huge circular stone slab with an eye-like symbol in the middle, surrounded by many small patterns, which looked like some kind of ritual or sacrificial scene.
"Brother Feng, look at this pattern, does it look familiar?" Zhang Shi pointed at the pattern and said to Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng took a closer look, and after examining it carefully, he said in surprise: "This...isn't this the pattern we have seen in the history books? But why does it appear here?"
Zhang Shi nodded, and an ominous premonition surged in his heart. The history book was vaguely related to the secrets of the City of Fog, and was probably inextricably linked to the earth beasts and the changes in the entire city.
"It seems that we are getting closer to the truth." Zhang Shi said in a deep voice, "However, this also means that we may face greater dangers."
Zhao Feng took a deep breath and said firmly: "No matter what is ahead, we are done. We have to find a way out. I will kill anyone who dares to stop me!"
The two continued to dig, but this time they were more cautious, for fear of touching any mechanism or trap. As time passed, they finally dug into what seemed to be an exit. It was a narrow passage, and the entrance of the passage was sealed by a huge stone slab. Zhang Shi noticed that the material of the stone slab was exactly the same as the buildings in the City of Fog, so he was very careful.
Zhang Shi and Zhao Feng worked together to push the stone slab away, and a burst of fresh air poured in from the entrance of the passage, refreshing their spirits. They knew that this passage was probably leading to the outside world.
The two walked carefully along the passage. Both sides of the passage were lined with various strange plants and rocks, and the air was filled with a mysterious and ancient atmosphere. Zhang Shi's eyes lit up. Plants represented hope. It seemed that the road ahead was correct.
They walked for a long time and finally saw a glimmer of light ahead. When they walked out of the passage, they found themselves in a huge underground palace. The top of the palace stands high, as if reaching into the sky. The palace is filled with various precious cultural relics and works of art, each of which exudes an ancient and mysterious atmosphere.
Zhang Shi and Zhao Feng looked at everything in front of them in surprise. They were surprised to find that the architectural style and materials of the palace were exactly the same as the city lord's palace. The two decided to search carefully in the palace. If their teammates could successfully escape, there was a high probability that they would find this place. They hoped that they could find clues to solve all the mysteries here.
However, just as they were about to enter the depths of the palace, a low roar came from a corner of the palace. The sound was deafening and made their hearts tighten.
Zhang Shi and Zhao Feng looked at each other, and each could read the tension and vigilance in each other's eyes. A low roar echoed in the palace, as if something huge was preparing to move in the darkness.
"Be careful, it may be dangerous." Zhang Shi reminded Zhao Feng in a low voice, and at the same time clenched Lao Duan in his hand, ready to deal with possible attacks at any time.
Zhao Feng also nodded, grasped the battle ax tightly, and followed closely. The two of them moved cautiously towards the direction of the sound, trying not to make any noise.
As they went deeper, the light in the palace gradually became dim. Zhang Shi took out an oil lamp and tried to illuminate the road ahead. However, the light was insignificant in the huge palace and could only illuminate a small area under their feet.
Suddenly, a huge figure jumped out of the darkness and headed straight for Zhang Shi. Zhang Shi had quick eyes and quick hands, and quickly rolled to one side to avoid the attack. However, the figure did not stop and continued to rush towards Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng reacted quickly and raised his battle ax to meet him. The huge figure collided with the battle ax, making a deafening roar. Only then did Zhang Shi see clearly that it turned out to be a large black snake, much larger than any snake creature they had ever seen.
"Why is this monster so big and scary?" Zhao Feng said in surprise, with a hint of shock in his voice.
Zhang Shi didn't answer. He focused on the black snake in front of him. This snake has no eyes, which is obviously due to the degeneration of its organs caused by living underground for a long time, but it also means that its perception is more acute in other aspects, and they must deal with it carefully.
The black snake attacked again, Zhang Shi struck down with a shadow slash, forcing the snake back, but all the sword energy was blocked by its scales, but it did not cause any harm to it.
Zhang Shi frowned and realized that the black snake was of a high level, so he prepared to find the right moment to fight in close quarters. With Lao Duan's sharpness, he should be able to cause damage to it.
At this moment, a low chanting sound suddenly came from a corner of the palace. The sound seemed to have some kind of magic power, making the black snake's movements slow down. Zhang Shi and Zhao Feng seized the opportunity and quickly launched a counterattack.
Zhang Shi even took the lead and flashed to the back of the black snake, cutting it into two pieces with one slash of his knife.
