Liu Qi and Zhang Jie were holding bows and arrows, keeping a distance of about ten meters from Yang Fan, and followed him closely.
Yang Fan didn't pay much attention to the threat from Liu Qi and the others. Now that he had arrived at Qilin Cave, even if Liu Qi didn't regard him as a human being, he wouldn't kill him for no reason.
At present, the biggest threat still comes from Qilin Cave.
The surrounding black air had no special smell, nor was it tactile. This state reminded Yang Fan of the "turbid air" that appeared in the conscious space.
However, the ball in Yang Fan's body has not shown any abnormality so far. It is estimated that the black energy is not what it wants.
When he came to the cave, he felt more clearly how big the cave entrance was.
"Since it's called Qilin Cave, maybe it was really the habitat of Qilin in the past."
When standing at the entrance of the cave, Yang Fan clearly felt that the temperature inside the cave was much lower than outside.
From the outside, the cave is pitch black and nothing can be seen clearly, but when you come to the entrance of the cave and get up close, you will find that the cave is not completely dark.
After my eyes adapted to the dim light, I could see that the space inside the cave was very open, and I could vaguely see a stone path extending deep into the cave, and I didn't know where it led.
The cave is also filled with black mist evenly, everywhere, casting a layer of black gauze over the already dimly lit cave.
"The black energy should be coming from the Qilin Cave."
Liu Qi's urging voice came from behind.
In the past, Yang Fan would never have dared to set foot in such a strange and unpredictable cave, but now he could only bite the bullet and move on.
Finally, Yang Fan stepped into Qilin Cave.
Although there is a large space inside the cave, the ground is rugged, rocky, and undulating.
Huge alien beasts can easily pass through such ground, but for humans, it is much more troublesome.
What's more, in Yang Fan's current state, let alone escaping, it was very difficult to pass. He could only move forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
Liu Qi has not spoken since Yang Fan entered the Qilin Cave. It is also beneficial for Yang Fan to be slower, as he can fully attract the dangers lurking in the dark.
After passing through the initial rocky area, the light inside the cave became increasingly dimmer.
The good news is that there are finally a lot less rocks on the ground and it has become flat.
Yang Fan also breathed a sigh of relief and continued to move along the stone path.
After walking for less than a minute, Yang Fan's feet suddenly became empty and his body sank!
Fortunately, he reacted in time. Regardless of everything, he hurriedly fell backwards, leaned against a rock, and sat down on the ground.
Liu Qi from behind shouted in a low voice, "What tricks are you playing? Don't think I won't kill you!"
Yang Fan hurriedly explained, "Ahead...is a cliff!"
After saying that, Yang Fan lowered his head in horror and looked at his feet one step away.
There was no road ahead, only a pitch-black void. Due to the influence of light and black air, the color of the abyss and the ground were very close. In addition, most of his attention was on the embankment and he did not notice it.
That step just now almost caused me to fall from here!
Yang Fan turned his head and looked to both sides. There was no other way. His location was clearly at the end of Qilin Cave.
The spacious cave just now has no other passages, and the only stone path is only thirty or forty meters long, and it ends here.
"There is no way." Yang Fan said to the person behind him.
After a while, Liu Qi and Zhang Jie came to Yang Fan.
"Zhang Jie, I don't object to you giving him the ash pine gun, but now please put it away and keep an eye on him!"
Zhang Jie nodded and confiscated Yang Fan's ash pine gun. Yang Fan was unable to resist. Without the ash pine gun to support his injured leg, he could only sit on the ground.
With Yang Fan's lessons learned, Liu Qi and Zhang Jie naturally would not fall off the cliff. They stood by the cliff and looked down.
"It's impossible to see the end," Zhang Jie said, "It's simply impossible to achieve the second goal!"
Liu Qize frowned and looked down, "Not necessarily, maybe it's too dark."
At this moment, the familiar voice sounded again.
"You have entered Qilin Cave."
All three people heard this voice, whether it was Liu Qi, Zhang Jie, or Yang Fan, they all felt their hearts tightening.
No wonder the voice didn't appear when I entered Qilin Cave, and it wasn't prompted until now.
Because the previous cave was just a passage, and the cliff in front of them was the real Qilin Cave!
Liu Qi finally retracted his neck and muttered, "It turns out this is the Qilin Cave. It's very good. It complies with the principle of gradually increasing difficulty."
After that, he picked up a piece of gravel from the ground and threw it down the cliff.
Surprisingly, they heard an echo in less than a second.
"Let me tell you, it should be much shallower than expected." Liu Qi looked at Zhang Jie, "Zhang Jie, how long is the rope we collected?"
Zhang Jie thought for a while and said, "About fifteen meters."
Liu Qi shook his head, "Not enough... We use iron spider vine silk, which is twisted into multiple strands. If we divide one strand into four strands, it will be sixty meters long."
Zhang Jie frowned, "Is it not strong enough?"
Liu Qi thought for a while and said, "There is definitely no original explanation, but it should be enough. After all, the iron spider silk is very tough, and one strand is enough to bear the weight of one of us."
"Then who will go down first?" Zhang Jie asked.
If they let Yang Fan go down first, it would be completely out of their sight. But now they have no understanding of the situation below, and it would be too dangerous to go down rashly.
Liu Qi looked at Yang Fan and his eyes fell on his wrist screen.
"Hey, take a self-test." The wrist screen intelligently detects his own data. Liu Qi also has to let Yang Fan take a self-test to know his data.
Although Yang Fan was unwilling to do so, he could only do as he was told.
After seeing the results, Yang Fan was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reported the results.
Liu Qi couldn't help but sneer, "You are really a waste! But looking at your physique, you are pretty much the same."
Zhang Jie looked at Yang Fan in shock. Is this guy in such poor physical condition?
Yang Fan ignored the two people's reactions. What surprised him now was that his data had dropped?
He remembered that just after taking the spiritual meat of alien beasts, his strength reached 58, speed 54, and physical strength 42.
It makes sense that the speed was not measured. His leg was severely injured by Liu Qi, but his strength and stamina dropped by two points. What is the reason?
Why did these numbers drop?!
Liu Qi naturally didn't know what Yang Fan was thinking. He just thought for a moment, then took out a Tianxiang Fruit, handed it to Yang Fan, and said coldly, "Although the data is rubbish, I still don't trust it. Eat this."
Before Yang Fan could figure out the reason for the drop in data, he was shocked by Liu Qi's request and said angrily, "If there is a beast down there, I ate the Tianxiang Fruit and wouldn't even have a chance to resist! Besides, the Tianxiang Fruit might kill him directly.
I!"
Liu Qi sneered, "I didn't tell you to eat all of it, but half of it!"
"As for the dangers you may face, haha, do you think I would care about your life or death? Your value is to help us detect dangers."
"Eat quickly! Otherwise I will let you die here now!"
Seeing the cold light in Liu Qi's eyes, Yang Fan realized firsthand how shameless a person can be when he becomes vicious!
"Eat!" Liu Qi scolded.
People like Liu Qi would never show mercy. Yang Fan stared at Liu Qi, but he could only take the Tianxiang fruit and took a bite without saying a word.
When he bit into the Tianxiang fruit, the refreshing sweet fragrance overflowed, and the rich juice flowed out from the corners of his mouth.
After eating half of the fruit, Yang Fan angrily threw the other half of the Tianxiang Fruit to the bottom of the cliff, and then glared at Liu Qi, "It's done!"
He watched Yang Fan eat half of the Tianxiang Fruit with his own eyes, and did not care about Yang Fan. He said to Zhang Jie, "Take off the rope, tie it to him, and let him go."
The rope was originally twisted by hand, so it was very easy to untie it. Soon, Zhang Jie divided one rope into four.
He tugged hard to make sure that the single strand was also strong.
Arriving at Yang Fan's side, Zhang Jie tied the rope around him. At the same time, he thrust Yang Fan's gray pine gun into Yang Fan's hand, and then he and Liu Qize grabbed the other end.
Liu Qi looked at Yang Fan with a smile. Without saying a word, he put his foot on Yang Fan's lower back and kicked him off the cliff.
Yang Fan's body fell rapidly, but he was quickly grabbed by a force. His body swung back and forth several times along with the rope, and hit the cliff several times before stabilizing.
The people above were relaxing little by little, and Yang Fan's body was gradually declining.
At this time, Yang Fan felt that his body had begun to feel uncomfortable, his breathing was rapid, his heartbeat was racing, and his muscles were paralyzed.
"Liu Qi, don't let me leave alive!"
The humiliation along the way made Yang Fan see the most vicious part of human nature. He never thought that a person could be so bad.
Is it because I am too weak that people like Liu Qi can be killed wantonly?!
"No, my body is almost numb."
"If I can't escape from that guy, I will die in his hands sooner or later!"
"Now is the only chance... we must find a way to escape!"
