Facts have proved that Nan Tieshan's expectations were disappointed.

The gorilla, which was already in a violent state, seemed to still retain some basic judgment ability, so it just rushed over and swept it twice, sweeping away the pile of rocks covering the passage. Although the pile of rocks was

It has been piled there for a long time, and even traces of snow mixed with soil have accumulated on it. However, in front of the wild and powerful force, this pile of stones was piled up here for unknown reasons.

He was dispersed with almost no resistance.

However, I think even a mindless beast would have discovered the secret behind this pile of stones if it had rushed over and beaten it randomly.

When the strong man in black armor passed through the gap, it still took a lot of effort, because with his muscle type, it was still a little difficult to pass through the narrow passage without any hindrance.

However, in a hurry, Nan Tieshan, who was dragging his injured body, did not take into account these details. Within a few seconds after he threw himself into the dark passage behind the gap, the mess behind him

The stone was already falling down with loud noises.

But he still escaped from this disaster - although his eyesight was limited, he could still judge by feeling that this hidden passage was actually just a slit between cliffs. This may be because this section of road had not been opened for a long time.

People walk through it, and there is no natural impact. The snow in the cliff crevice is relatively deep, and people can’t even see their knees when walking up. It is almost impossible to pass by here immediately, but Nantieshan can

If you don’t believe it, the big stupid guy in the back is so strong that he can break the cliff apart.

"Come here if you can, hahaha!"

Covering the wound on his side, Nan Tieshan laughed loudly at the entrance of the slit, and then was grabbed by the back of his neck by the woman behind him, and dragged into the darkness of the passage under the roar of the giant ape.

"I didn't expect you to be able to fight back under such circumstances." Duan Qing's voice came from the darkness: "That's really good, boss."

"Of course, who is your boss..." As if he noticed something was wrong, Nan Tieshan stopped what he was saying and thought for a while with some doubts, then touched the rock wall and asked: "You

Are you okay?"

"It's okay, thank you for your concern, boss."

"Uh, um, um... forget it." The big man in black armor struggled for a while, but there was nothing strange about it: "Where does this road lead next?"

"If I remember correctly..." the woman in front of him replied: "We will enter a cave."

"Cave? Are there any caves on this mountain?"

"Falling Star Mountain is very big." The woman said without looking back, "It's much bigger than you think."

Nan Tieshan lowered his head, and then took out two small torches from his bag: "I have torches here. You two can take them and share them. It doesn't matter if you keep walking in the dark like this...

"

Buzz.

Before he finished speaking, the road ahead suddenly lit up - the hand covered by the black cloak was stretching forward, holding a stone on it, which was emitting a milky white light.

"No, we'll use this." Then, he heard the woman's reply.

The piercing roar was getting farther and farther away from them, and the road ahead was getting narrower and narrower. Nan Tieshan looked up and saw that the two cliffs were getting closer and closer in his sight.

The ray of light also became thinner and thinner, until it changed from the appearance of a sliver of sky to completely invisible.

When the darkness was completely shrouded, the light emitted by the unknown stone in front of Nantieshan became particularly clear. He squinted his eyes to observe the strange stone, and at the same time observed the man holding the stone tightly.

The hand, and... the appearance of some armor exposed under the hand, were inexplicably hung up.

"Heart."

Then, the woman's warning voice came from a short distance ahead. Nan Tieshan stretched out his hand and touched the cliffs that were close to his head. He slowly lowered his body and used his strong body to stand in the cave in distress.

Moving around.

Ten minutes later, they finally escaped from the tunnel-like cave.

"Huh, huh, I feel so uncomfortable." He gasped, the last one crawled out, and then lay on the ground holding his ribs: "Wait a minute, let me rest, by the way...

.bandage it.”

"Okay." After a period of silence, the milky white light source began to move forward slowly, gradually moving away from Nantieshan.

"The situation seems a little different..." Her voice came from the distance.

Since it is a cave, the temperature here is still higher than outside. This is very useful for Nan Tieshan who has calmed down from the strenuous exercise. However, even so, the cold that should be resisted still needs to be resisted, and the injuries that need to be treated still need to be treated.

So he moved his body with difficulty until he used stones to prop up his upper body before stopping with a gasp.

"Damn, when did you become so useless..." He cursed bitterly and began to treat the wound while observing the basic conditions of the area where he was.

He immediately noticed something unusual.

"These stones..." He fumbled and picked up a piece of gravel next to him, holding it in front of him in the dark and inspecting it: "It seems to be artificial..."

"Can't you shine a light first?"

The stone emitting milky white light moved back, and Duan Qing's voice responded: "Brother, you can see it in such a dark place..."

"Hey, look, look, this place... this place is not natural!" Nan Tieshan held the stone and shouted: "Look at the appearance of this stone, it is obviously processed, right?"

"Take a good look around you."

Nan Tieshan suddenly raised his head.

The irregular rock wall extended forward as far as he could see, but some parts of it already had some broken carving traces. In the distance illuminated by the milky white light, scattered gravels were large or scattered.

On the uneven ground, even looking at it from such a distance, Nan Tieshan could see that the initial appearance of the gravel was not left by any natural stones. But what was more obvious was that it was located next to him.

Nearby, there are some broken stone pillars on both sides of the passage. Some of the stone pillars have been broken into several sections, and some of them have almost only a piece of root left.

His back was now leaning on the stone base of a certain stone pillar.

"Where...where is this?" Nan Tieshan's voice trembled a little: "Are we still on the mountain?"

"I, where is your stone?" Duan Qing did not answer his question, but squatted in front of him: "It's the one you received at the foot of the mountain before."

"Ah? Oh, here it is, here it is." The man in black armor came back to his senses and took out the stone in his arms: "Fortunately I didn't throw it away before..."

"It seems that this is it." After checking the stone, Duan Qing looked around the silent cave: "It's surprising that the people in the pile of rocks didn't lie to you."

"Is this place the ruins they passed down?"

"Probably, but..." Duan Qing looked at the stone in his hand, and then looked at the front of the cave with serious man-made traces.

"Since it is true, then the problem...is even bigger."

*********************

According to Xue Ling Huan Bing, the stone in her hand is called "Yubaishi" and is a material needed for some kind of production. However, until now, she has not figured out what this stone can be used to make. However, after passing

Over this time, she has also discovered many other uses from the characteristics of this stone, and lighting is only one of the more practical ones.

However, after only a short period of time, this only function lost its effect.

As they explored deeper, bright lights began to appear in the cave. These soft light green lights were not produced by some artificial creation, but were placed and scattered in the cave, and some stones appeared everywhere.

Most of the light green stones have been broken into very small pieces, and only some of the slightly larger green stones are still telling the story of what happened here with their sharp and angular appearance. Duan Qing and Xueling Huanbing once

During this period, I briefly studied these light stones, and the conclusions I drew were extremely unprofessional.

"Do you see anything?"

"How is that possible? What do you think I am, an encyclopedia?" Duan Qing tilted his head: "But there is one thing I can be sure of..."

"These things are not jade."

"Emerald? Oh..." The woman in the black cloak rubbed her head: "You are one of those from the Emerald Forest..."

"That place has now become a scenic spot." Duan Qing said half-jokingly: "But with the current level of players, if you want to find out the use of those stones... I guess you will have to wait a hundred and eighty years.

Year."

"If we bring out that mage's diary..." the woman muttered to herself, then shook her head, freeing herself from unnecessary thoughts: "When I came here before, this place

not like this."

"Oh? Specifically, what are the differences?"

"I don't know, but..." The woman pointed to the surroundings: "Originally there was no light."

Duan Qing nodded solemnly, then turned around and asked, "Brother, when you bought that stone before, did the person who sold it to you have anything else?"

"Ah? Ah..." Nan Tieshan was obviously stunned for a moment, and then thought about it for a while: "...No, the person who gave it to me only said that this thing is a clue to the existence of a certain ruins on the mountain.

There’s nothing useful left… Oh, right!”

He patted his head: "He told me that this stone was also collected from someone else, and then he gave it to me because he thought I was a man..."

So people like you are easy to deceive... Duan Qing speculated maliciously, and then put on a smile again: "No matter what, they still didn't lie to you, that stone should be

From here..."

"What the hell!" Nan Tieshan angrily picked up a random piece of gravel from the ground: "This stuff is all over the floor, right? Just pick up a few pieces and sell them, we might all be rich, ha!"

He threw the stone down the passage, but after a long time, the sound of the stone falling was not heard.

"Huh?"

Duan Qing in front stopped: "Why did it take so long..."

"What's wrong?"

"The sound of that stone." Duan Qing stopped and then identified the direction: "The stone was thrown in this direction just now, right?"
