Is this the owner of the cave, the so-called "immortal"? At least he looks the same as a mortal after death. The dried skin is attached to the withered bones, and it has long been beyond recognition, let alone the Taoist bones.
The clothes he wore were wide and long-sleeved, and the style was indeed elegant. It was neither silk nor silk, but extremely smooth, with no material visible. But He Lingchuan stretched out his hand and tore it apart.
Why do everything here look like paper?
The young man stood up and walked around, discovering that the owner of the cave was really poor and had left nothing of value behind.
He returned to the futon and found that Dry Bones was sitting in a standard sitting posture, with his right hand clenched into a fist and his index finger pointing to the ground.
ground?
He pushed aside the thick dust and saw hundreds of words neatly engraved on the floor tiles, as if they were carved by his fingertips.
Is this a suicide note left by the owner during his lifetime? He must also know that no carrier can withstand a long time, so it would be more durable if simply carved on the black stone ground.
Unfortunately, although the handwriting was elegant, He Lingchuan could not understand most of them.
He thought for a while, covered the ground with paper, and then brushed ink and peeled it off. The inscription was successful. Just because he can't understand it doesn't mean that others can't understand it either. From now on, when he goes to Xiazhou or the capital, he can find some old scholars to come. Puzzle solving is also good.
He carefully put away the rubbing paper and was about to stand up when the sacred bone necklace suddenly became hot and almost burned him twice.
What do you mean, there is something else here?
He Lingchuan paused and looked around carefully again.
Everything is as usual, the dilapidated things are still as dilapidated, and the decadent things are still as decadent.
However, this time he noticed that the owner of the cave still had a black ring embedded in his left little finger, but it had been hidden under his sleeve before and was not discovered.
"Forgive me for being rude, junior." He Lingchuan saluted to the withered bones and then carefully took off the ring.
This was a black jade ring with a simple style and no decorations. However, he tried to put his spiritual thoughts into it and couldn't help but exclaimed.
This is a storage ring with a large content space, equivalent to a room measuring 17 to 18 square meters.
It is no exaggeration to say that the ring itself is priceless. In today's storage space, one or two cubic meters is very good. The one He Lingchuan is wearing can be basically filled with two low wooden coffee tables, so Normally, it can only store small valuables, and even food and water take up too much space.
Having this treasure is equivalent to carrying a small warehouse with you.
There are a lot of sundries placed in this space now, including a pile of jade slips. This kind of thing is only the length of the index finger and looks like a bookmark. In the immortal legends that He Lingchuan has heard, the probability of appearing is second only to magic weapons.
It sounds like this thing is a hard drive from the Immortal Era, which can store a large amount of information. But when he actually took it in his hand and checked it excitedly, he found that these jade slips were empty.
Yes, without the nourishment of spiritual energy, the contents stored in it will be lost. He Lingchuan was a little disappointed. He originally thought that there would be magical powers left by immortals in it.
Everything in the world probably cannot withstand the ravages of time. The same goes for immortals and caves.
He walked out of the small courtyard and walked around.
This "cave mansion" covers an area of about 700 to 800 square meters, with tall rocks and tall rocks. If there were vegetation and flowing water, the scenery would be very beautiful. Unfortunately, it is just a bare barren hilltop now.
Gray fog surged around the cave, and it was difficult to see what was outside the fog.
He Lingchuan climbed over the mountain, approached the gray fog, raised a branch and poked at it.
At first it was as light as nothing, but as it went in it became thicker and thicker. It felt a bit like poking a thick quilt with your finger, but in the end you couldn't get through it.
This is probably the boundary of the cave.
The visit to the Immortal Cave ended here, and he returned the same way. The short adventure was coming to an end, and He Lingchuan expressed that he was very disappointed. However, this place was first discovered by the spirit turtle, and then visited by the crocodile monster. He did not know which wave he was in.
Visitors, it only makes sense that the cave should be empty.
Just as he was about to walk out of this so-called "cave", the sacred bone necklace became hot again.
Is there anything valuable here?
He Lingchuan had no choice but to turn around and walk back.
After walking past it, the necklace became hot, as if it was in a hurry; the closer it got to the center of the cave, the calmer it became.
Finally, He Lingchuan walked to the edge of the dry pool: "Here?"
Only by standing here can the sacred bone necklace remain quiet.
What to do now?
There were only rocks and sand here, and not even a breath of wind. Everything was completely still except for himself.
He Lingchuan used a broken knife as a shovel and dug a few times into the soil. He found that the sandy soil was quite hard and an ordinary sword might not be able to cut through it.
It doesn't look like there's anything hidden underneath.
This method of digging the ground was too stupid. He Lingchuan thought for a moment and simply took off the sacred bone necklace and pressed it to the ground.
Didn’t you fall in love with this place? Then find your own way to get there.
He was also a little impatient, but he didn't expect the sacred bone necklace to sink when it hit the soil and sink like falling into the water.
He Lingchuan missed the mark and it disappeared under the surface.
"Hey!" He was surprised. If this thing couldn't float up on its own, he would be in big trouble!
Then I dug the ground for three feet, but there was no sign of the sacred bone necklace, not even a ready-made pit.
Fortunately, a few dozen breaths later, when He Lingchuan was extremely anxious, this thing appeared on its own, glowing red, and he didn't know what happened underground.
As soon as he picked up the necklace, he heard a dull sound.
Just like a person's spine being broken, or like a rattan breaking, the movement is magnified dozens of times.
Immediately afterwards, cracks began to appear on the ground, from few to many, from shallow to deep, and small pebbles began to fall from high places.
At this moment, He Lingchuan didn't know that the change must be related to the sacred bone necklace, so he ran out of the cave.
The ground was shaking so hard that it was almost impossible to stand.
Standing in front of the entrance and looking back for the last time, the immortal's house collapsed together with the cliff, falling into the endless gray mist.
He Lingchuan didn't dare to look any further and stepped out.
The vision dimmed, and there was another dark cave.
I heard a "click" and the coconut-sized shell at my feet shattered to the ground.
This noise also alarmed the other two creatures. Crocodile God and Wu Shaoyi looked over together: "What's going on?"
He Lingchuan returned his hand and pressed the stone wall, but it didn't move at all.
There was an entrance here just now, but now it's just a rock wall, solid.
"The cave seems to have disappeared."
The other two were a little surprised, and Crocodile God asked him: "What did you do?"
He Lingchuan lied without any guilt: "I didn't do anything, I just walked around and came out."
He also asked the crocodile monster: "What do you think the reason will be?"
"I don't know." Crocodile God didn't care. Anyway, it was empty and there was nothing inside.
Only He Lingchuan himself understood that the sacred bone necklace must have been tampered with in the cave.
Wu Shaoyi had difficulty moving and could only look at him eagerly: "Is it really a fairy cave?"
