Chapter 838 Seeing Ziyi Again

Latest website: I really didn’t expect that this border general who left no death information in the history books would eventually die in this dark cave.

After roughly understanding what might have happened here, Ji Han collected all the bones and armor of General Guo Xin around him and put them into his backpack, preparing to bury them properly after leaving.

Ji Han originally wanted to see if the general had left any magic weapons as funeral expenses, but after searching around, he only saw a rusty waist knife.

This thing probably has no other effect besides tetanus, so it's better to be buried with Guo Xin.

The sound of water rushing behind them could still be heard. For safety reasons, the four of them did not wait too long. After collecting the remains, they climbed up along the tunnel where Guo Xin came down.

I thought this must be a way out, but Eggplant behind me said while crawling:

"I'm afraid it's not that easy to get out. The water below is so turbulent that I didn't feel any airflow flowing in this tunnel. This may be a dead end."

This reminded everyone, but the other road just now went straight down, and there was still the sound of water coming from inside. It was definitely impossible to go there. Now, everyone can only bite the bullet and go up.

Just like this, we climbed diagonally upward for a hundred or two hundred meters, and finally a larger space appeared in front of us.

At first everyone thought they were coming out, but the surroundings were still dark.

The four of them did not see the way out. To the left was a huge crack in the mountain. In front of them were collapsed rocks. There were some bones underneath. Chen Ke stepped forward to check and confirmed that they were the clothing of Tubo soldiers.

Song Qian speculated:

"It seems that there should have been an exit here. Perhaps he was afraid that the Tubo soldiers would enter below, so Guo Xin set up a mechanism here. When the army was defeated and the city was broken, he escaped from here, and those who pursued him were used by him to prepare in advance. The good mechanism has been buried, but now we can't get out."

Ji Han tried to pick up the gravel, but as the stones slid, the space they occupied shrank further.

It seems that there is still a lot of rubble outside, and it is unrealistic to dig it out from here.

"Eggplant, can you use perspective to see how far it is from here to the outside?"

Eggplant rubbed his eyes and replied:

"There is definitely no hope here. There are enough rocks to bury us three or four times."

After speaking, he pointed to the crack in the mountain next to him:

"Try to go up from this side. I see that there doesn't seem to be too many obstacles going up through the crack."

There was no other way at this time, so everyone had to enter the crack one by one. However, unexpectedly, this natural crack did not seem to be as narrow as imagined.

After walking a certain distance inside, two people can even walk side by side.

There were also many upward slopes on the right side of the crack. Eggplant pointed:

"It's right here. The mountain wall above shouldn't be thick. Are you looking for a way out? Or if it doesn't work, just blast it."

Ji Han's use of devil's tentacles was very convenient in a place like this. He climbed up in a few steps. Although the rock above his head still didn't feel empty when he knocked it, it shouldn't be very far from the ground from an angle.

Ji Han climbed up a short distance and came to a gentle slope. He raised his hand to test the thickness of the stones here, but he touched a row of orderly stones.

"Is this? A trace of man-made construction?"

The eggplant below asked:

"Ji Han, is there a way? If not, I'll try to shoot him a few times."

"Wait a minute, I'll try again."

In this kind of terrain, Eggplant wouldn't have a good way to use the power of the Destroyer. Thinking of Ji Han, he pressed the middle finger of his right hand against the stone wall above his head, and then charged up a blow.

There was a crisp sound of "click", and a large amount of gravel popped out, and the four of them finally saw the light. Ji Han was afraid of burying himself, so he hurriedly slid down. Fortunately, the gravel stopped soon.

And the broken place also leaked out the long-lost light.

Ji Han took the lead

Climbing up, I could see that the fallen stones were all artificially processed, and there must be some man-made building on them.

Could it be those city walls?

But after walking so far just now, he should have already walked out of Stone City. Thinking about Ji Han, he got in first.

The surrounding ground was barely paved with those stones to form a complete flat ground.

But as soon as he raised his head, before he could fully observe his surroundings, a cold blade touched his neck.

Isn't it? Is there anyone else up there?

Relying on the protection of [definitely next time], Ji Han looked back with doubts on his face, only to see a face that was equally doubtful as his own.

"Huh? Why is it you?"

The one who spoke was the Taoist priest in purple who had left before. At this moment, he was holding a short knife and pressing it on his neck.

Seeing that it was Ji Han, he quickly put away his dagger and stretched out his hand to pull Ji Han out of the hole.

"Didn't you leave? Why are you here?"

"It's not just me."

As Ji Han spoke, he turned around and shouted into the cave:

"Come up here, it's an old acquaintance."

Under the surprised gaze of the purple-robed Taoist priest, Song Qian, Eggplant and Chen Ke also climbed up.

After getting out of the ground and adapting to the long-lost light, everyone realized that they had actually climbed onto the shabby Taoist temple on the ridge outside Stone City.

Although it looks relatively dilapidated from the outside, once you climb up, you will find that although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.

I don’t know if it was cleaned by the purple-clad Taoist priests. Although it is a bit deserted, it looks basically clean.

Looking at the four Ji Han people who appeared from here for some reason, the purple-clothed Taoist priest looked puzzled and seemed a little worried:

"Why didn't you leave? I thought you had already left!"

Ji Han spread his hands and said:

"This is a long story. We should have been gone for a long time. Why are you still here?"

Recalling the strange behavior of this guy when he saw him just now, when he saw someone crawling out from here, his first reaction was to put a knife on the other person's neck. Even if he was a little scared, it wouldn't be like this.

"Four of you, I don't have time to have fun with you right now. If you want to survive, get out of here quickly!"

After the purple-clothed Taoist priest finished speaking, he frowned and looked beyond the ridge.

Neither Ji Han nor the four of them knew what was happening outside, and they were teleported here before they could even arrive in the real world.

As shown in the time and space compass, there is a large natural grassland outside, and in the distance is a canyon composed of two high mountains.

Recalling the scene seen from the time and space compass, the only difference between the two is that there is no weird crack in the center of the grassland.

Seeing the purple-robed Taoist looking down, Ji Han and the other four were a little confused.

"Are you waiting for someone?"
