Except for Lao Hei, the Blue-Eyed Rat King, Zhu Yingtai and Qin Da successfully reached the bottom of the cave, the rest of them were trapped on the climbing ropes. It must be said that it was a huge joke.
This joke is a little too big...
Liu Shiba tried to use a walkie-talkie to contact Zhu Yingtai at the bottom of the cave, and found that the situation was extremely dangerous.
Zhu Yingtai stood at the bottom of the cave and could not see anyone on the rope...
Cao Xiong said angrily on the walkie-talkie:
"When you tested the depth of the cave just now, didn't you find anything special?
If the terrain moves, we will definitely be able to feel it. You feel that something is activated, can I see it?"
Cao Xiong went on to explain:
"You are sliding down vertically. Even if there are other passages here, you will not fall into them by mistake. Think about it..."
Liu Shiba frowned and replied:
"Old Cao, will the original hole disappear after I come down?"
Cao Xiong was shocked when he heard this and said:
"It's possible. The hole may be active. After it moved, you and Zhu Yingtai missed it and went straight to a deeper place."
Liu Shiba heard this and responded via walkie-talkie:
"Lao Cao, do you think it's possible? If you miss it, there is only one climbing rope. How do you explain it?
Zhu Yingtai is below and can see the rope, but he can’t see anyone on it..."
Cao Xiong said strangely:
"We all climbed back a little to see what would happen. Hanging up there for a long time would be too much for our physical strength."
Liu Shiba and his party all knew that something strange had happened at this moment, and began to climb up with great effort.
After climbing for a while, Zheng Weida and Ailian Hu should have returned to the entrance.
But the strange thing is that not only did the two of them not see the light of a hand-cranked flashlight placed at the entrance, but even the section of stone wall with sculptures and symbols engraved on it disappeared.
The top of the cave is as endless as the bottom...
Liu Shiba and his party are really on the verge of tears. Are they going to hang here and die?
No way to heaven and no way to earth?
Liu Shiba took the walkie-talkie and shouted angrily:
"Don't panic. Only by calming down can the problem be solved."
Everyone who entered the ancient tomb basically had a walkie-talkie, and they could all hear Liu Shiba's voice at this moment. The strange thing was that no one could be seen.
Liu Shiba was really confused at this moment. He was almost at the bottom of the cave, why did he suddenly become like this?
What's the mystery behind this Zhenzi chess game?
Why are the passages up and down endless?
After thinking about it, Liu Shiba's heart lit up and he said to himself:
"Suppression? Are you really suppressing some kind of ghost? The layout here shouldn't be to prevent people from coming in, but to prevent something from escaping?"
In other words, everything here is simply not designed for people coming in?
Liu Shiba used a miner's lamp to illuminate the dark surroundings. Except for the gloomy air, it was still a stone wall.
Although he climbed a long distance, he seemed to be still where he was.
At this time, Cao Xiong said helplessly:
"Keep climbing up and see if you can go back first?"
"Um!"
Liu Shiba responded without any objection or insistence!
It might as well let the people above try it...
At this time, above Liu Shiba, there were Ning Min'er, Cao Xiong, Ai Lianhu, Lu Xiaolin, Zheng Weida, plus seven living dead.
A total of thirteen people were trapped in mid-air, unable to move up or down...
The cave is still quiet, everyone seems very silent...
Liu Shiba felt something bad in his heart. He clearly felt that no matter whether he was going up or down, the distance he climbed not only exceeded the normal depth of the cave, but even exceeded the length of the climbing rope.
The longest climbing rope is only 200 meters...
However, more than ten minutes later, the group was still climbing upwards, as if they had climbed into another space and were in a huge abyss.
The group of people was panting. No matter how high they climbed, there was no end and there was always darkness.
Liu Shiba bit his lip and frowned!
He has been climbing in the cave for several hours, and his physical fitness has seriously declined!
Strictly speaking, Liu Shiba is an ordinary person. He has only practiced some martial arts and is stronger than ordinary people. He is not even as good as Cao Xiong and Zheng Weida who have eaten Tai Sui in human form.
It's not that Liu Shiba doesn't want to eat the human form Tai Sui, or that he finds it disgusting, it's mainly that Liu Shiba wants to wait for a suitable opportunity before taking it, such as when he breaks through the fourth-level school captain to the fifth-level.
It must be a huge hurdle for a fourth-grade captain to break through to the fifth grade!
If, when you make a breakthrough, you have the help of Tai Sui in human form, all the things you have learned in the ten cultivations can be forcibly raised to a great level, and the benefits to you will be huge.
Therefore, it is unwise to eat Tai Sui now!
However, if you continue to waste it like this, you will sooner or later die of suffocation here.
Cao Xiong's voice came from the walkie-talkie:
"Eighteen, can you still hold on?"
Liu Shiba gritted his teeth and replied:
"I can still hold on! By the way, Lao Cao, did you find anything special when you climbed down?
How did we suddenly get lost here? It’s a bit incredible..."
Cao Xiongsi said calmly:
"Don't worry, think about your father, what would he do if he encountered such an emergency?
There must be some strange mechanism or formation here, let’s not be anxious and just think about it more calmly.”
"Hiss, hiss!"
The walkie-talkie on Liu Shiba's waist rang again!
"Captain, a Da Qin soldier and I climbed up for a long time without reaching the end, but we found many strange characters on the cave wall."
Liu Shiba pressed the call button and responded calmly:
"Why, you also found something wrong?"
Zheng Weida smiled bitterly and said:
“We climbed up normally, but after passing a section full of sculptures and symbols, the color of the surrounding stone walls seemed to suddenly change.
Then, no matter how high or low you climb, there seems to be no end."
Liu Shiba thought for a moment and replied:
"It seems that there is indeed something strange here, and it is in that area with strange symbols."
Then, Liu Shiba pressed the call button again and shouted:
"Old Cao, what do you think is weird in this cave?"
Although Liu Shiba and his group couldn't see each other, they all had their walkie-talkies on and nervously listened to the conversation between Liu Shiba and Cao Xiong.
Cao Xiong thought for a while before answering firmly:
"If the old man's prediction is correct, he should have encountered a situation similar to the legendary ghost hitting the wall.
In fact, there is not such a large area for so many of us to separate in this Zhenziqi cave.
To put it simply, it was because I was fascinated by myself. But! This place is definitely not a ghost building a wall. According to the old man's idea, it is very likely that someone has set up a weird Feng Shui array in this straight hole, such as Qimen Dunjia.
"
Of course Liu Shiba was familiar with the superstitious sayings such as ghosts breaking into walls.
But he didn't believe it, and he had never encountered it before. He didn't expect that he would encounter it in this ghost place.
Liu Shiba asked curiously:
"Old Cao, don't fool me. Is Qimen Dunjia also a method used by Feng Shui masters? Aren't Feng Shui masters only able to set up Feng Shui formations?"
Cao Xiong rolled his eyes when he heard this and said disdainfully:
"Eighteen, why don't you touch Captain Jin? You haven't even heard of Qimen Dunjia? Are you sure you are really Chinese?"
Liu Shiba grinned and said:
“Just say what you say, don’t say anything, just take out the trash!”
"Jie Jie Jie!"
Cao Xiong laughed strangely a few times, and the laughter came out through the walkie-talkie, sending chills down everyone's spines. They instantly felt like there was a cold wind and felt bad all over...
Then, Cao Xiong smiled mysteriously:
"During the Three Kingdoms period of China, wasn't there a famous Zhuge Wolong?
He is actually also a Feng Shui master, and he practices the art of Qimen Dunjia..."
Liu Shiba was stunned and said:
"Zhuge Liang?"
Cao Xiong smiled sinisterly and said:
"That's right! The famous Eight Formations were created by Zhuge Liang!"
After a pause, Cao Xiong added:
"The art of Qimen Dunjia can be said to be a secret art of China, and it can also be said to be the only destiny theory that can control the opponent.
In ancient China, it was called imperial science, and its secrets were extremely secretive and were not allowed to be leaked to outsiders.
If ordinary people steal it, the person who discovers it will be beheaded, so it can be said to be the secret among secrets.
Due to the terrifying nature of Qi Men Dun Jia, the master only taught it to his disciples orally from generation to generation, so there are very few people who understand Qi Men Dun Jia."
When Liu Shiba heard this, he was confused and said:
"So, which of the ten ancient practices in the world does the Qi Men Dun Jia technique belong to?"
Cao Xiong smiled proudly and said:
"Of course it belongs to Feng Shui!"
Liu Shiba's eyes lit up and he said:
"As long as it belongs to the Feng Shui sect, then the Qimen Dunjia technique in this cave will definitely be able to break..."
Cao Xiong laughed and said:
"As it should be..."
