The material of this gas mask is made of a special silk made in an underground laboratory. It is as smooth as silk and has strong filtering and purifying effects, and can effectively resist various harmful gases.<
/p>
Long Qinghong put on a gas mask and the fresh air flowed into her nasal cavity. She was very surprised: "What kind of material technology is this? When did human technology reach this level?"
"Miss Long, please stop asking..." Shu Mo pulled her sleeves, "I will explain it to you when I have the chance."
Ye Xiaoying also came over at this time and said: "Instead of caring about these, it is better to look at the environment we are currently in. We don't know where this place is."
Just like what Mo Xiao had seen before, the environment here is harsh and the visibility is extremely low. The reason why everything is gray is because the yellow sand rolled up by the wind blocks the sky, making it difficult for light to penetrate, making the world between heaven and earth extremely dark.
There are only gravel and sand underfoot, and the sky is dark, making this place even more desolate.
The harsh environment and toxic air make this area like a restricted area for life. Apart from the sound of the howling wind, there is no life.
"Anyway, let's explore around first and see if we can find anything."
Mo Xiao glanced back, and the "wall" of Xuanyuan Secret Realm closed again, isolating the wind, sand and poisonous gas outside. Compared to the paradise behind them, the place where they were standing now was like hell.
Everyone stared at the wind and sand and walked forward. In fact, because of the limited field of vision and the similar environment underfoot, it didn't make much difference to choose any direction to move forward. In addition, the environment was harsh and unfamiliar, so a few people walked together as a group, with the shield of bells.
Protection, they walked quite easily.
"I scanned the nearby terrain, and I'm afraid this place is much larger than you imagined." After walking for about ten minutes, the mysterious pendant suddenly said, "Going this way, I found a place that looked like an artifact left by an intelligent creature.
Small stronghold."
"Is there any living things living in this environment?"
Several people were extremely surprised. Reyes even shook his head and said: "There is no water or food, and there are poisonous gases everywhere. Even an elemental creature like me can't survive in such an environment for a long time. It's really hard for me to imagine any creature."
able to survive.”
Patty looked at him: "Anyway, let's go take a look first."
Following the guidance of the mysterious pendant, the group of people accelerated their pace and moved forward. Although the wind and sand were strong, it was difficult to resist the progress of these extraordinary people. After walking for about dozens of minutes, they finally found the place pointed by the mysterious pendant. That was
A low cave.
The entrance to the cave is blocked by a hanging board, and several layers of filter-like structures are installed to prevent toxic gases from leaking in. Just from this simple structure, you can understand that the people who built the cave must be intelligent creatures. p>
It is incredible that life can exist in such an extremely harsh environment. It is incredible that surviving life can still possess intelligence, just like Reyes thought.
Patty checked the baffle and filter and said: "Judging from the anti-virus methods, it is definitely not a native species that has adapted to this environment. It should be an alien life form like us."
"We arrived here through the Xuanyuan Secret Realm, so how did the people here come?" Ye Xiaoying turned to look at Long Qinghong and asked, "Are you sure that no one from the Demon Spirit Alliance or the Four Spirit Beast Clan has come here before?
Passed?"
"Probably...no, I'm not sure if you ask me that."
Long Qinghong lowered his head and thought for a while, then said in an uncertain tone: "The earliest information about the Xuanyuan Secret Realm dates back to about seven thousand years ago. We have no records. The oldest living turtle has nothing to do with it.
We know very little about this. Senior Xing Luo is a person from that era, but his core was injured and his memory is incomplete. He doesn’t know as much as the old dirty turtle."
"Hey, what a pity." Ye Xiaoying shook her head regretfully.
While several people were talking, they were also carefully removing the baffle and filter cloth, trying to avoid damaging these items while clearing a passage for them to enter. If there are still people alive here, they will definitely need these things. After entering the cave, they re-sealed the entrance, took out their flashlights and slowly walked deeper. The cave was not deep, and disappointingly they found no living people inside.
But I found a lot of traces of people living there.
Several earthen pots made of clay were neatly placed aside, with several pieces of cured bacon and dried meat inside. There was a pile of burned firewood next to it, and there were some shabby pieces of cloth and pieces around the fire.
Leather, in the innermost part of the cave, there is also a floor paved with weeds. There are various signs that people lived here not long ago.
Shu Mo took out the bacon and tore off a shredded piece of meat, looked at it and threw it into his mouth.
"How is it? Is it delicious?" Mo Xiao asked jokingly after seeing it.
He is not worried at all. After all, Shu Mo is a monster and his resistance is naturally much stronger than that of humans. Even if it is expired food, eating too much will cause diarrhea. If you don't eat it to death, he can do whatever he wants. Making a fool of yourself is still considered serving the public.
.
"Well... the taste is okay, there is no peculiar smell." Shu Mo reported his feelings while chewing the shredded pork, "It would be nice if I had a glass of water."
"The shelf life of bacon can be a few years at most." Ye Xiaoying is an expert on food. After hearing Shu Mo's thoughts, she also tore off a small piece of shredded pork and tasted it. "It hasn't expired yet, at least it can be guaranteed to be within a few years."
Someone must have been here."
Long Qinghong glared at Shu Mo: "This may be emergency food left by others. Put the bacon back. Do you lack this food?"
Shu Mo didn't dare to neglect and did as he was told. Perhaps because of Long Qinghong's presence, this guy quietly didn't dare to do anything disobedient. He said and did what he said, just like a good baby. p>
Reyes suddenly raised his hand to everyone on the side and shouted softly: "Come and take a look, there is a hole leading below. This is a double-layer structure."
After hearing this, several people quickly gathered around. It was a hole about one meter in diameter. Mo Xiao pointed his flashlight down, looked at the height and jumped down. With a "dong" sound, he landed safely.
It is a square space of only a few square meters, with only a stone table with a few books and a charcoal pen on it, and nothing else.
Others also jumped down, but Reyes was almost stuck in the air because of his strong body. He swayed hard for a few times before coming down. He, who was always as steady as a mountain, rarely showed a trace of embarrassment.
There was a layer of dust on the stone table and books. After wiping off the dust, several people picked up the books and flipped through them. The words on them were specious and familiar, but they were not any known words.
Relying on the automatic translation of the language pack, Mo Xiao and others could barely identify a few damaged books in their hands. Unfortunately, due to the severe damage, they could only roughly deduce that these books were related to agricultural buildings. The information they wanted was not at all.
No.
At this moment, a piece of yellowed paper slipped out from one of the books. Several people picked it up and took a look. Their eyes suddenly froze.
