It was too hot in the valley, and Si Haochen didn't dare to let Lieyan run away.
The mountain on the opposite side looked not far away. A whole morning had passed, and they had only walked about half of the distance. During this period, the two of them went into the space to rest once, and then replaced Mo Ying and came out to replace Lie Yan.
The sky was always gloomy. At noon, Mingruo planned to go into the space to rest for a while before leaving. Suddenly, it started pouring rain, and the two of them hurriedly hid in the space.
"Although it's uncomfortable when the rain hits me, it's definitely not as hot as before." Mingruo said while wiping the rain off her face.
"Yeah." Si Haochen nodded. In fact, driving in the rain is much more comfortable than driving in the sun. "Do you have the raincoat you made last time with you?"
"I brought it with me." Mingruo's eyes suddenly lit up. He put on his raincoat and was on his way. It doesn't matter even if he gets a little wet. It's convenient to take a bath and dry clothes in the space, so it doesn't matter.
Mingruo took out the raincoat sewn from the same silk yarn from the closet. After the two of them put it on, they took out the rested flame and continued on their way.
The rain did have a cooling effect, and Lieyan ran much faster. But when the rain fell on his face, it was actually warm, and there was still a slight steam rising from the ground. Mingruo felt that they had changed from the small grilled fish yesterday.
They became two small steamed buns. The mountain hiding the treasure must be an active volcano...
After thinking wildly, he finally arrived at the foot of the mountain. Mingruo wiped the rain off his face and carefully observed the direction of the mountains. There were several cave entrances that were either naturally formed or artificially drilled.
According to the map, only one of these caves leads to the heart of the mountain. Some of the other caves have traps inside, and some are simply mazes. If you walk in, you will get lost in the intricate tunnels.
Si Haochen looked around along the mountain wall and selected the entrance of the cave they wanted to go through.
Si Haochen's lips curved into a slight smile: "Are you ready?"
Mingruo put the flames into the space and took another deep breath: "Let's go."
When the two walked into the cave, they felt hot at first. Later, a faint smell of sulfur filled the air, and the surrounding mountain walls became a little hot. Mingruo subconsciously used the phantom ice beads in space to cool himself down, but Si
What should Haochen do?
"You go into the space, I will take you along this way." Mingruo clenched the luminous pearl in his hand for illumination.
Although this dark cave was a bit scary, Si Haochen had no protective measures and he would probably be roasted if he walked further inside.
"No." Si Haochen rejected Mingruo's proposal without hesitation. This cave was full of unknowns for them, and there was absolutely no way he would let Mingruo leave alone.
What should I do...
Si Haochen held Ming Ruo's cold little hand, and an idea suddenly came to his mind: "Where is the magic ice bead given by Jun Che?"
Mingruo slapped his forehead and took out the "gift" from his senior brother before leaving from his "sleeve pocket". Si Haochen had the blessing of internal power and could directly touch the magic ice bead. He picked up the shallow bead from the warm jade box with his fingers.
The blue beads with ice cracks instantly made the entire cave feel cooler.
Ming Ruo was about to cry with joy. My senior brother is definitely my dear senior brother. The things he gives me every time are of great use.
Si Haochen held the Magic Ice Pearl, and Mingruo held the Night Pearl. It was much easier for the two of them to travel in the dark cave. After about a quarter of an hour, a bright light appeared in front of them. Mingruo was a little suspicious, maybe he had walked out of the mountain.
?
The two of them approached the light source, and the corners of Mingruo's eyes and mouth twitched. This must be too scary - the location they were in was about three stories high, and below was the slowly flowing magma. There were seven tall stone pillars.
A suspension bridge woven with iron chains was erected, leading to the opposite side.
Mingruo firmly believed that if there were no magic ice beads, if they stayed on the bridge for a few minutes, they would be roasted to a crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, just a handful of barbecue ingredients away from the grilled lamb chops. Although they had magic ice beads,
To cool down, she didn't dare to walk on this suspension bridge.
Mingruo was roaring in his heart: This design is so anti-human. Even the set crews of fantasy adventure blockbusters would not dare to do this.
"Ruo'er, get a strong rope from the space." Si Haochen said in a deep voice.
"Okay." Mingruo took out a finger-thick beef tendon rope, "Do you think this is okay?"
"Okay, get on my back."
Ming Ruo obediently lay on Si Haochen's back, looking at the lava flowing slowly under the suspension bridge, her legs really weakened.
Just in case, Si Haochen tied the two people together with a rope. No one knows how long this suspension bridge has been here, and whether it will become weak due to being baked by the magma every day. Si Haochen started to practice Qinggong.
, only borrowing a little strength from the suspension bridge, he quickly passed the suspension bridge and went to the other side.
There were five more tunnels on the opposite side. Si Haochen chose the rightmost one as shown on the map and walked in. The further he walked in, the burning feeling gradually lessened.
Finally, they came to a huge cave that was particularly spacious and bright. Mingruo visually estimated that the cave was as high as ten stories and as big as four football fields. There were some large and small holes and gaps on the top of the cave, allowing light to leak in.
.
It is evening now, and the fiery red sunset is reflected in the lake in the middle of the cave, like a pool of sparkling golden water flowing. There are some moss and low shrubs growing around the lake, and many caves are dug around the mountain wall, which look like warehouses.
Also like a beehive.
Mingruo and Si Haochen chose a row of almost vertical caves and looked at each cave from bottom to top. Some were empty, while others had some wood or stones piled inside.
When they came to the large cave at the top, there were many shiny black tree trunks stacked inside. Each root was as thick as the mouth of a wooden basin, and the rings were dense and delicate.
A flash of difference flashed across Si Haochen's eyes. How could there be so many thick iron nanmu here! Iron nanmu is different from other woods. It gets harder as it ages. Especially these ones, which look like dark wood and are stronger and more durable.
"Ruo'er, put these wood away." Si Haochen's heart was surging at this time. These iron nanmu trees can completely build an indestructible navy, which can even sail to Zhongzhou.
"Ah? These pieces of wood seem to be a little special..." Mingruo touched the wood in front of him curiously, and found that it had a metallic texture.
"This is iron nanmu, which is the material your fifth brother used to build his flat ship warship." Si Haochen continued, "Besides, the wood is much better than his flat ship."
"Could these woods be the so-called treasures..." It took Fifth Brother's grandfather thirty years to gather the iron nanmu needed for a building ship, which shows how rare this wood is.
However, there is still a big gap between this and the treasure Mingruo thought...
"Iron nanmu is a material even rarer than gold and silver." Si Haochen looked at the little girl's disappointed face and continued, "I need it very much."
Upon hearing that it was something her boyfriend needed, Mingruo quickly put all the iron nanmu in the cave into the space.
