The stone door opened completely on its own, and with Qin Jiyan's force, the two of them fell directly in...
"Bah..." The stone door opened and then closed again, blocking out the only ray of sunlight.
There was a long and narrow passage in the stone gate. Qin Jiyan fell in with Gu Qiancheng in his arms and rolled twice on the ground before he stopped. The mud clothes he was wearing had long ago disappeared.
Gu Qiancheng was protected by Qin Jiyan, and his skin was not even scratched. However, Qin Jiyan injured a piece of his elbow, but it was not serious.
The two of them got up from the ground in embarrassment. After sorting themselves out for a while, Qin Jiyan took Gu Qiancheng's hand and walked forward, "Let's go to the front and have a look." There is obviously air circulation in this passage, and there is definitely a way out ahead.
"I hope we can go out this time." Gu Qiancheng wiped his face casually to wipe away the dirt on his face.
It was very dark in the passage. After walking for a long time without seeing any light, it seemed that the road was very long. If they met someone who was not determined, they might go back. After all, they were not sure at all whether they could
Get out alive.
Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng didn't know how long they had been walking. Anyway, Gu Qiancheng felt hungry. They were still in the passage...
"We've been walking for at least three hours, right?" Gu Qiancheng made a bold guess, and Qin Jiyan responded, "Absolutely."
"This road is really long. I can't walk out even for three Jinchen." After walking for a long time without seeing the light of day, it is inevitable to feel a little impatient in the dark world. Gu Qiancheng is glad that Qin Jiyan is by her side, otherwise
She will definitely go crazy.
"It's possible that we have been going in circles." Qin Jiyan has a good sense of direction, but on a single, dark road with only one road, no matter how good the sense of direction is, it is useless.
Qin Jiyan's guess was correct. They were indeed going in a circle, going back and forth in a short section of the road in a zigzag pattern.
Obviously there is only a few steps between the two places, but because of the zigzag design, the two of them kept going around...
However, even if they knew that they were going in a circle, they could only go downstairs. There was no other way for them to go except this way.
Gu Qiancheng and Qin Jiyan walked forward resignedly. After walking for about an hour, they finally saw a glimmer of light.
"There's light!" Gu Qiancheng couldn't help but cheer.
Qin Jiyan was more stable than Gu Qiancheng, but at this moment he couldn't help but raise his lips and quicken his pace...
Not long after, the two came to the light, but what they saw was not an exit, but a shining cave.
In the middle of the cave is a huge pool with white smoke emitting and transparent crystals hanging everywhere. The sun shines in from the hole on the top of the mountain and falls on the crystal. The light refracted by the crystal shines into every corner of the cave.
"There's water!" Although she didn't find a way out, Gu Qiancheng's eyes lit up when she saw the water source, "Let's see if this water is drinkable." She was really thirsty to death.
"I'll try it first." Qin Jiyan patted Gu Qiancheng's hand and motioned for her to stand where she was and not move.
Qin Jiyan stepped forward, squatted by the pool, and lightly touched the water with his left hand. The cold touch was refreshing. His Highness Qin took a mouthful with his hand, and the sweet taste slid down his throat. People couldn't help but praise: Good water.
!
"You can drink." Qin Jiyan waved to Gu Qiancheng, motioning for her to come over.
"Finally we have water to drink." Gu Qiancheng hurriedly ran over, squatted by the pool, and scooped water with his hands. His movements were fast but not vulgar.
The two drank heavily, finally quenching their thirst for the past few days. Gu Qiancheng sat down at Qin Jiyan's feet with satisfaction, "I feel like I'm finally alive."
Yes, alive!
"It'll be fine if you come back alive." Qin Jiyan lowered his eyes and his eyes fell on the wound on Gu Qiancheng's head, with a flash of heartache in his eyes.
Because there was no medicine, although the injury on Gu Qiancheng's head healed, it left a scar. Although it was not obvious because of his hair, he still felt heartbroken every time he saw Qin Jiyan.
The two of them took a short rest by the pool and prepared to get up. But before that, they tore off a piece of clothing and washed their faces, hands and feet with water. As for taking a bath?
Let's forget it. If they can't get out, they still expect the water to quench their thirst. It's not worth it if it gets dirty.
After a little cleaning, the two of them searched for it in the cave.
Considering that there was sunlight coming in from above, Qin Jiyan tried to see if he could break the roof, but... I don't know how the cave was designed, and Qin Jiyan couldn't do it even after trying several times.
When Qin Jiyan was trying to break through the cave and get out, Gu Qiancheng was also looking for a way out, "I discovered that there is a waterway here." There is a waterway next to the pool, and the water in the pool follows this waterway all the way to the north of the cave.
flow away...
The two of them walked along the waterway to a corner of the cave. Qin Jiyan violently hit the cave wall, and then...
They saw a huge two-headed snake coiled on the other side of the cave wall. The two-headed snake was spitting at them fiercely, its long body stretched out, and its huge snake head swam towards them...
Not far from it, there was an extremely dazzling flower blooming on the ground. The flower had only two petals, one red and one blue, intertwined with each other. It was indescribably beautiful.
"I, have we arrived at the snake's base camp?" Gu Qiancheng swallowed his saliva and quietly hid behind Qin Jiyan.
This two-headed snake looked so evil and seemed not to let them go.
"It seems so. Just hide behind me." Qin Jiyan patted Gu Qiancheng's hand and told her to hide quickly.
Gu Qiancheng knew what he was capable of, so he didn't show off at this time and hid in the corner obediently.
Qin Jiyan did not take the initiative to attack the two-headed snake, but took a tentative step back. When he found that the snake did not shrink back when he stepped back, he knew that he could not be good today.
They could withdraw, but the snake would not let them go, and they could not reason with a beast, so they had to take action...
Just as Qin Jiyan thought, when he broke the cave wall and broke into the cave, the two-headed snake had no intention of letting him and Gu Qiancheng go.
The two-headed snake slowly unfolded its body at first, and when it pulled out its tail, it suddenly accelerated and rushed towards Qin Jiyan like lightning...
"Pfft..." With a sound, the two-headed snake opened its mouth and bit Qin Jiyan. At the same time, it flicked the snake's tail and rolled it towards Qin Jiyan.
Qin Jiyan was on guard for a long time. He jumped up slightly and jumped behind the two-headed snake, which was next to the red and blue flower.
The two-headed snake turned around suddenly and saw Qin Jiyan standing next to the flower. It did not attack immediately, but stood there and did not dare to move...
What's going on?
Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng were stunned at the same time, but Gu Qiancheng didn't dare to move at all. She was afraid that the two-headed snake would target her. As for Qin Jiyan?
Glancing at the flowers beside him, Qin Jiyan looked at the two-headed snake thoughtfully.
