The space inside is indeed not small, but you can see the whole thing at a glance thanks to the still dark sky.
It was just an empty cave with no deer, not even the shadow of the snow deer.
After chasing them all here, the duck they got flew away. Of course, Cheng Siqing refused to give up just like that. He wondered if there might be other entrances in the cave, and the snow deer got into other entrances.
The vision was too dark, so Cheng Siqing could only explore along the cave wall a little bit.
After the sky darkened completely, Cheng Siqing actually found another cave entrance that was as wide as one person.
Cheng Siqing got in directly.
He walked along the entrance of the cave for about two sticks of incense. The cave gradually became shorter and shorter. Cheng Siqing could only lie down and crawl in slowly.
The space in the cave was already very small, and there was no room for Cheng Siqing to turn around. He thought for a while, and simply continued to crawl forward. After crawling for about half an hour, the cave became smaller and smaller, and the rocks were squeezed on Cheng Siqing's back, almost
Can't climb any further.
It would be impossible for a snow deer to get through such a small cave. Thinking of this, Cheng Siqing slowly backed away.
But just after taking two steps back, a faint light came from the other end of the cave. It didn't look very far away.
It seems there is another exit not far ahead.
The space in the cave is too small and I can no longer turn around. Instead of retreating out, I might as well try to see if I can get out through the entrance of the cave in front.
After all, I have been climbing for so long. If I step back, it will take at least an hour and it will be even more difficult.
Fortunately, although Cheng Siqing was tall, he was very thin due to poverty. He moved forward almost on his belly like a snake, and he slowly passed through the narrow cave.
Seeing that bright light right in front of you.
Cheng Siqing moved faster. At this time, he was already tired and hungry.
He knew in his heart that there was no hope of catching that snow deer anymore. He just wanted to go out early and pick up the two prey he had caught before and left them on the roadside.
The gaps between the rocks became narrower and narrower, and the hard stone walls wore away his clothes and scratched his skin.
The light shone brighter and brighter, becoming more and more dazzling. Cheng Siqing's eyes were so shaken that he could not open his eyes. It was definitely not the light from outside.
It's already night now, it can't be sunlight, and the moonlight won't be so dazzling.
Cheng Siqing moved forward while thinking about crawling towards the dazzling light.
After a while, he felt his whole body relax, and the space in the cave became larger again, and it was actually as big as a room.
The dazzling thing was right in front of his eyes, and Cheng Siqing couldn't believe his eyes.
There are piles of gold piled in the cave, and the dazzling light is caused by the gold.
Cheng Siqing slowly got up from the ground, rubbed his eyes in disbelief, raised his hand again, and bit the back of his hand hard.
The pain made him burst into tears instantly!
The salty blood spread in his mouth, and Cheng Siqing finally believed that he was not dreaming.
He has never seen so much money. With this money, the children will not have to worry about food and clothing!
"I am rich! I will be a rich man from now on!"
Cheng Siqing cried and laughed and threw himself on the hills made of gold and started shouting.
The joy and excitement of seeing a large amount of gold made Cheng Siqing forget his hunger and fatigue for a while. He rolled from one pile of gold mountains to another, almost like a madman who had lost his mind.
Soon, Cheng Siqing was surprised to find that there was more than one such cave, but a series of caves, like the houses of a wealthy family, connected one after another.
Each cave was filled with various types of jewelry. This discovery made Cheng Siqing almost burst into tears.
Even if this wealth were given to his family for ten lifetimes, they would probably not be able to use it up.
After more than an hour, Cheng Siqing slowly calmed down due to excessive hunger and thirst.
He walked forward from cave to cave to see if there was an exit. He began to think about what jewelry to take out.
It was definitely impossible to take them all away, so he could only pick up some valuable ones and take them away.
As long as he doesn't tell anyone the secret of this cave, he can come here for the rest of his life to get endless wealth.
Cheng Siqing counted and found that there were a total of twelve caves here, ten of which were filled with different jewelry. The other two caves were actually filled with a strange purple flower bulb. Those flower bulbs were beautiful and had petals.
It's like being carved out of crystal.
There is no doubt that the flowers Cheng Siqing saw were amethyst flowers.
The strange thing is that there is a stone bed in the middle of the flowers, and there is a silk book in the middle of the stone bed.
There is no pattern on the cover of the book, just three large characters in block letters.
Cheng Siqing didn't know much about literacy, but he happened to know these three characters. This silk book was called "The Art of Immortality".
Is there really a way to immortality in the world?
Cheng Siqing was stunned for a moment, and after a while he became as ecstatic as if he had just woken up from a dream.
If what is recorded in this book is really the art of immortality, and if there is wealth here that cannot be used up in ten lifetimes, then wouldn't he be happier than a god?
Cheng Siqing picked up the silk book from the stone bed and slowly opened it.
Various immortality techniques are written in the silk script, most of which are evil methods and require a large amount of human life to be exchanged.
Turning to the end, Cheng Siqing saw that the last method in the silk book required relatively fewer lives, but the method was the most vicious.
People say that tigers are poisonous and do not eat their children, but the method is to use the life of your own son to prolong your life for a hundred years.
As for a hundred years later, the life of the descendants can be extended through the same bloodline.
Grandson, great-grandson, great-great-grandson...
Because before the first renewal of life a hundred years ago, those who wanted to live forever had to transform themselves into hermaphrodites, neither yin nor yang. Only in this way could they avoid the pursuit of the underworld.
Hearing this, I glanced at Cheng Qiao with some confusion. A bitter and charming smile appeared on his face, and he softly uttered two words: "Self-gong!"
Precisely because he has become an intersex person who is neither yin nor yang, every time he renews his life after a hundred years, he only needs to be a direct descendant.
After reading it, Cheng Siqing threw the book "The Art of Immortality" back. Immortality was indeed tempting, but he was not interested in the magic in it.
No matter which technique is used, if you want to avoid the pursuit and thunder of the underworld and live forever, you must first transform yourself into a hermaphrodite.
Cheng Siqing does not want to become an intersex person.
"The Art of Immortality" not only records various immortality techniques, but also records the amethyst flowers growing in caves.
As long as you pick off the petals after the amethyst flower blooms into a flower ball and take it, you can keep your appearance forever, but that's it. When you get old, you have to die.
Therefore, amethyst flowers are also the key to immortality.
At that time, Cheng Siqing felt that if he had money and kept his appearance, he would already be very profitable. He was not greedy.
