Hao Ying seemed to have some kind of authority and could stay outside the cage for as long as she wanted. She did not leave until nightfall.
It was only when she heard that she was going to search for I Ching hexagrams on the Internet that she hurriedly left, picked up her food box and left in a hurry.
No electronic communication equipment could be used near the cage, including the personal terminal installed in the skull cavity. If she wanted to check information online, she had to leave the cage.
Looking at Hao Ying's back, Chu Di suddenly remembered something. He just forgot to ask her how many days she had been in solitary confinement.
Principal Hao didn't say how many days he would be detained, three days?
But after he thought about it, he was relieved. What about three days? What about five days? Someone brought food and it didn't delay the practice. It was not a bad day.
But now that Hao Ying leaves, I will have no one to talk to, so I'll just practice my fists and kicks.
You can't leave your hands with boxing, you have to practice it whenever you have time.
Practicing boxing means practicing the boxing techniques you know in sequence.
Chu Di has a sequence for practicing boxing, which is to follow the order of Tai Chi, Liang Yi, Three Talents, Four Symbols, Five Elements, Liuhe, Seven Stars, Bagua, and Nine Palaces. After finishing these, there are other miscellaneous styles.
The previous several boxing techniques were all smooth and natural, like clouds and flowing water, but when it came to the Baguazhang part, something went wrong.
What's going on? The Baguazhang's footwork is called the mud step, which emphasizes taking root under the feet and making every step. To put it bluntly, the soles of the feet don't leave the ground and they walk along with friction.
It is said that during the Qing Dynasty, those famous Bagua masters with strong inner strength would sink the entire soles of their feet into the soil when walking in this way, which was equivalent to walking in the soil.
Chu Di had no internal strength, so the soles of his feet would not sink into the soil, but at least the uppers of his shoes would be in contact with the turf. This time, he felt something was wrong with the ground under his feet.
Just like the strip that was neither gold nor wood that was pulled out from under the body before going to bed in the morning, there seemed to be such protrusions everywhere on the ground inside the cage.
It's not that you can't walk on muddy steps with this kind of protrusion, but I feel a little strange, where did so many strips of neither gold nor wood come from in this cage?
As he became suspicious, he stopped punching and wanted to see what these strips were.
In the darkness of night, his inability to see close things was greatly improved. Moreover, his eyesight also had another characteristic, that is, the further he looked into a dark place, the clearer he could see, even at close range.
When he pulled out another strip from the soil, he understood what it was.
Where are these wooden and metal bars? It’s actually a bone, and it’s a thigh bone! A human thigh bone!
This confinement room is not a cemetery. How could there be so many human bones?
As he was thinking, he dug out and examined each one. He found that they were all bones, all human bones. There were bones from all parts of the body. If you added them all together, there wouldn't be dozens of human bones.
This is wrong!
Chu Di was not afraid. He could see ghosts, so why should he be afraid of a pile of withered bones?
But he couldn't help but think more, why are so many dead people buried in this place? And also, how did these people die?
He dug out hundreds of dead bones and spread them on the ground. Some of them had begun to glow with faint phosphorescence.
He examined the bones one by one, trying to find out the cause of death of these people, but suddenly he saw some words engraved on a shoulder blade.
What is engraved on it is: "Zhiyun Military Academy, a huge thief who deceives the world, seeks wealth and kills, a wolf, a worm, a tiger and a leopard"
The sixteen characters were carved on the bones with finger strength, which shows that the person who carved the words had very strong finger strength.
You must know that the bones of humans and mammals are usually very hard. Even if you use ordinary tools, it is not easy to carve deep marks on them. However, these sixteen characters are written in one go and are definitely not carved repeatedly.
From this point of view, the person who carved the words should have arrived here later than the deceased on this shoulder blade, and since the person who wrote the words like this, I am afraid he will not end up well.
Thinking of this, Chu Di's heart began to beat. I will kill myself for the sake of money. What about me? Could I be the target of a plot?
I don't have much wealth, but I do have a lot of enviable things, such as the Dugu Nine Swords and the Universal Divine Sword.
He guessed that since this man had carved words on one shoulder blade, he might not have carved only this one, so he continued to search for other shoulder blades, and sure enough he found another one with words carved on it.
There are also sixteen words engraved on this shoulder blade: "It's called confinement, but it's actually a prison. Once you enter, you will never escape."
When he saw these sixteen words, his heart immediately dropped.
Could it be that Zhiyun Military Academy took the initiative to invite me to enroll in order to kill me?
When I thought of this, I immediately became filled with anger. Zhiyun Military Academy, did I provoke you?
Even though he was angry, he still kept calm. Now that he discovered the conspiracy, he would try to escape.
Although his life is inherently precarious, he cannot be easily tricked to death.
There is no need to think about the metal cage net. It is definitely not something that ordinary swords can destroy. Just look at this finger strength expert who has written "doomed", so there is no need to think about destroying the metal cage net.
So, is it okay to dig a tunnel?
These bones are ready-made digging tools. Although the efficiency is low, as long as you keep digging, you will be able to dig out a passage sooner or later. The key is where to put the excavated soil.
If there is no suitable place to hide the soil, Hao Ying will be discovered by Hao Ying who delivers food at dawn.
And this Hao Ying, could she be the one plotting her own martial arts?
Just because her surname is Hao, she should have a certain relationship with Principal Hao.
I am a new student specially recruited by Principal Hao. It is also Principal Hao's decision to confine myself. In this case, Principal Hao is no longer reliable.
At this moment, he did not start digging immediately. He wanted to think clearly about all the keys to the problem, and then think about how to get out of trouble.
The most important point is that if you can get out of trouble by digging a tunnel, wouldn’t the person who carved the words on the bones have thought of it?
If he had ever thought about it, there should be a ready-made tunnel here. Even if it couldn't be dug out, he should dig out a section of it.
With this thought, he began to walk around in the cage, taking two steps and stamping his feet to feel if there were any holes underneath.
One hundred square meters is not a large area. He tested repeatedly and finally found a place in the southwest corner of the metal cage.
Stamping his feet on the ground here, the feeling he felt was different from other areas. He followed the feeling and moved while stomping his feet. Suddenly, his foot was in the air, and a piece of floating soil under his feet suddenly collapsed, and the person with him fell down.
Just as imagined, this was a tunnel that was abandoned halfway. It was only dug to a depth of more than 3 meters, but it could no longer be dug.
The reason has also been found. Three meters below the surface, there is a layer of metal woven mesh that is the same as the outside. The entire metal cage is integrated and cube-shaped.
What should I do? Am I going to follow in the footsteps of these people and be trapped here alive?
Chu Di couldn't help but despair, and even didn't bother to climb to the surface again.
When I was in despair, I suddenly felt something strange behind me. I turned around suddenly and saw a ghost clinging to the wall of the tunnel.
