Chapter 222: The Melon Eaters and the Dungeon
On the cliff, a large group of Shennongjia savages stood in a row and looked at Ning Tao who was going into the dark cave. That picture is like a group of onlookers holding stones and sticks who don't know the truth.
"Hoho, Hoho..." The Shennongjia savage who kicked Ning Tao away waved his arms, and the voice that came out of its mouth seemed to be a sentence, but except for themselves, the whole world probably couldn't find it. No one can understand.
"Hahaha!"
"Hohohoho!"
"Yo-ho... yo-yo!"
There was a lot of laughter and yelling like a folk song, they seemed to be amused by the words of the hero compatriot. As for Ning Tao, he has disappeared into the darkness where he can't see his fingers.
Everyone probably has a dream of flying, but if they really fly, it will definitely not feel good.
The wind whistled in his ears, and the gravity of the earth was like a huge rock tied to his feet, leading Ning Tao to fall into the dark abyss. In the first few seconds, Ning Tao's heart was full of fear, his mind went blank, and he didn't know what to do.
But just when the fear climbed to the limit and was about to collapse, the huge pill in Ning Tao's Niwan Palace suddenly trembled, and the spiritual energy field spread in his body instantly, and he was there He calmed down for a moment.
Ordinary people would definitely die if they encountered this kind of situation, but he was a born middleman between good and evil, the owner of the Tianwai clinic, how could he die like this! The survival ability of ordinary practitioners is much stronger than that of ordinary practitioners, let alone a special practitioner like him who only emerges once every two thousand years!
Spiritual power poured into both feet, Ning Tao's legs bent up at the same time, and then kicked suddenly in the void, his body suddenly had an upward movement. Although he couldn't get rid of the gravity, the speed of falling down slowed down a little. Then he kicked again, then slowed down, and kicked again...
There was a ladder under his feet, and when he reached the seventh step, Ning Tao's body was suspended in the void for a while. Although that time was only a little over a second, it was enough for him to open his small medicine box.
After that, his body fell down again violently.
Ning Tao reached into the small medicine box, grabbed the herb-picking rope that lived inside, poured spiritual power into it, and threw it out to the right side of his body with a wave of his hand.
The medicinal rope is a magic weapon of the Tianwai Clinic. It is just a rope in the hands of others, but it is a magical magic weapon in the hands of Ning Tao.
call!
spiritual activation,
One end of the medicinal rope flew out like a spear and continued to extend. Ning Tao quickly twisted his arm twice, wrapping the rope around his arm. As soon as he finished this action, there was a vibration from the other end of the rope. Although he couldn't see it, he knew that the hardened rope had been stuck into the rock!
A second later, his body was suddenly pulled away from the trajectory of the straight fall, and hit a cliff. The right arm wrapped with the rope was almost dislocated under that tug, the fabric of the clothes was shredded instantly, and a layer of skin on the arm was worn off. The hot tingling sensation spread from his arms to his whole body, and he bent his legs enduring the severe pain. At that moment, his legs kicked on a mountain wall, and then his body hit the mountain wall with a bang.
The herb-picking rope fell off, and his spiritual power couldn't keep its end hard for long. However, it is not necessary anymore. Just when the medicinal rope fell off and his body fell again, his left hand had already grasped the edge of a rock and fixed it on the mountain wall.
A rock fell from under his feet and fell, and a few seconds later he heard a dull thud.
It's almost over.
Ning Tao breathed a long sigh of relief. He was not in a hurry to get off the mountain wall. Instead, he took a rest and used special spiritual power to heal the injury on his right arm. The pain in the right arm disappeared quickly, and some mobility was restored. After that, he used his right hand and mouth to make a noose for the medicinal rope, and put it on the rock edge that was buckled by his left hand. Afterwards, he grabbed the medicinal rope and slid down.
With his feet on the ground, Ning Tao relaxed. His body and soul seemed to be emptied in an instant. He sat down on the ground and lay down.
"If those savages attack me again, I won't show mercy!" Ning Tao looked up at the oval sky above his head, recalling the experience just now, with lingering fears in his heart. On flat ground, he could still open the blood lock to escape, but during the rapid fall, even if he opened the blood lock, he couldn't get in, because he opened the blood lock a second ago, and he fell down a second later. This time, if he hadn't made sufficient preparations in advance and brought the medicinal rope, he would really be buried in this dark cave.
After resting for a few minutes, Ning Tao got up from the ground. He grabbed one end of the herb-picking rope, poured spiritual power into it and shook it, and the herbal-picking rope was quickly retracted and returned to his hand. He put the medicinal rope into the small medicine box and closed the lid.
Looking down from the forest with a little light just now, I can’t see my fingers here, but this place is actually not as dark as I imagined. There is no dense fog on the top of the head, and there is a faint light shining down, and I can vaguely see the blurred scenery around me. . The few minutes of rest just now allowed his eyes to adapt to the dark environment here. He can see farther, and he can vaguely see a stone three meters away.
Ning Tao saw many stones, oval in shape, stretching out into the darkness like eggs. He listened attentively, and could vaguely hear the sound of running water, but it was far from the waterfall he imagined.
"Could it be that this burrow is in the shape of an urn, with a big mouth and a big bottom? The small waterfall seen above is flowing against the rock, far away from me?" Ning Tao guessed in his heart, and he walked towards the distance He walked to the nearest oval stone.
One-third of the oval-shaped stone is buried in the soil, and the exposed two-thirds are about one meter high. Ning Tao took out his mobile phone, woke up the screen, and used the weak light of the screen to illuminate. He soon discovered that this oval-shaped stone was not natural, it had been polished, and there were some unreadable characters on it, or runes.
Ning Tao took a picture of the stone, and then walked towards another oval-shaped stone. When he got to the second stone and observed it, he was surprised to find that the second stone was exactly the same as the first stone in terms of height, diameter, and even the degree of polishing, but the words or runes carved on it were different.
After taking pictures, Ning Tao continued to walk forward.
The oval-shaped stones were left behind by him, and his heart became more and more surprised and confused. Every oval stone he has seen is the same size, material, and even the same degree of polishing. Ma Tongtong said that the civilization of the Yinyue people disappeared during the Warring States period. At that time, the tools used by people were still fragile bronzes, and there were no tools to carve and polish such stone eggs, let alone make so many of the same size. Stone eggs.
"Could it be industrialized production? If so, then you must have seen a ghost. During the Warring States Period, if the Yinyue people had such productivity, would it be easy for them to conquer the world?" Ning Tao couldn't bear it. Live to guess.
Continue to walk forward, there is no sound around, only the sound of his footsteps is transmitted to the distance, but no echo is transmitted back. One stone after another appeared in his sight and was left behind by him, but he had lost interest in taking pictures. Suddenly he remembered something, he stopped, opened the small medicine box, took out the soil-seeking inkstone, and poured 30 milliliters of ink into the soil-seeking inkstone. The ink pointed to a direction on the side, and he changed direction and continued on.
Not far away, a vague silhouette appeared in front of him, boxy and square.
"City? Is it a city of Yinyue?" Ning Tao became excited and walked over quickly. While walking, he awakened the state of sight and smell of the eyes and nose, and at the same time activated the flashlight function of the phone.
It was indeed a town. Although the beam of the mobile phone's flashlight could only illuminate part of it, it could be judged from its outline that it was not large in scale, about the same as a town. A city wall was built around it, but it was not very high, only about five or six meters. The building behind the city wall can be vaguely judged to be a cuboid building, a bit like a shrunken version of a modern building.
The ink ripples in the earth-seeking inkstone continued to point to the town.
Ning Tao walked over quickly and came to a city gate. The city gate has collapsed, and the buildings behind the city gate have also collapsed a lot. There were a few plants on the streets and buildings that didn't need light. They looked like bryophytes, but they weren't the kind he'd picked in the forest above.
Ning Tao stepped through the collapsed city gate and walked forward in the direction guided by the Xun Tu Yan.
The streets are paved with stone slabs, and in some places there are even dents stepped on by people, and there are huge footprints of Shennongjia savages. The doors of some cuboid buildings were open, but the rooms were empty of furniture, pottery, nothing. It gives the impression that all the people and their belongings in this place have suddenly disappeared and gone to another time and space, so that only the city made of stone remains.
Suddenly, the beam of the mobile phone flashlight illuminated a strange crack. It is about one meter wide and one meter deep, extending tens of meters forward. Its edges are full of jagged gaps, some stones are cracked, some are crumbled, and some have obvious signs of burning.
Ning Tao walked tens of meters along the crack, and when he reached the corner of the street, his feet could no longer move.
At the corner of the street stands a three-storey stone building, which is made of very strong large stones, but it is such a stone building that is comparable to a European castle, and the crack actually splits it alive. A one-meter-wide crack was left in the middle!
Ning Tao was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses, and said to himself: "It's impossible for lightning to strike this place, but if it wasn't lightning, could it be someone who struck it?"
He couldn't help but look back at the crack of tens of meters on the street, and he was horrified. If someone really split it, how powerful that person would be!
Could it be a fairy?
