The entire stone cave was shaking violently, and Xiaozhi, who lost his center of gravity, fell rapidly.
Holding the lightbulb Pikachu in one hand, looking at the falling gravel around him, Xiaozhi had an idea.
He immediately planned to quickly shuttle between the falling gravel, repeatedly using his strength, in an attempt to climb back to the upper rock ground.
This is Pikachu's classic move.
clatter...!
Just after reaching the first step, Xiaozhi's feet just exerted force, and the whole person fell quickly along with the gravel under his feet.
Xiaozhi: "..."
After all, it is difficult for humans to imitate Pokémon's movements.
Boom boom...!!
In an instant, countless boulders covered them, and countless smoke and dust rose randomly, completely engulfing the figures of Xiaozhi and Pikachu.
"Cheba!!"
At the edge of the collapse, the forest lizards that were not affected screamed anxiously.
That big snake, kill it next time!
Just when the forest lizard was about to jump in to rescue it, its exhaustion of physical strength, excessive blood loss, and the triple damage caused by the poisonous effect finally made it fall to the ground, unable to move...
...
Stone Cave, three levels underground.
This is also the lowest level of this underground cave.
The collapse just now seemed to have caused a chain reaction, and Xiaozhi fell directly to the bottom.
Da da...!
When the collapse came to an end, Xiaozhi slowly stood up from the pile of rubble on the edge, pushed away the rubble around his body, and smoke filled the air.
"Ahem, are you okay, Pikachu...?"
"Pica...!"
Pikachu shook his head and shook the dust off his face. It was nothing serious.
Although it could use lightning to escape, it was immediately caught by Xiaozhi's tail and fell down together while being protected in his arms.
Fortunately, the moment Xiaozhi landed, he rolled towards the edge and was not hit by the huge rocks in the central area.
"Pica...!"
Seeing that the surroundings were extremely dark, Pikachu once again used his flash trick to illuminate everything.
"Didn't the forest lizard come down?"
Xiaozhi looked around. When the collapse occurred, the forest lizard was still some distance away from them. It seemed that it had stayed on top.
Countless boulders fell in front of him, stacked up into a thick rock wall.
"Well, at this scale, it would be troublesome even for Bi Diao to use the rock-breaking technique..."
Looking at the completely sealed cracked ceiling above, Xiaozhi couldn't help but frown.
If you forcefully use the rock breaking technique, the entire cave might collapse together...
"Forget it, let's find another way up."
In the end, Xiaozhi could only turn around and look for the stairs that existed in the cave itself.
As for the status of the forest lizard... With the previous movement, it is estimated that Xiaogang, Xiaolan and the others will come over, and the forest lizard should not be in any danger.
"Pickup..."
Under the guidance of Pikachu's flash technique, Xiaozhi began to explore the lowest level of the underground...
It seems that because the location is too deep, the air here has a depressing atmosphere.
The surroundings were so dark and eerie that even Pikachu's flash couldn't illuminate it, making people's hair stand on end.
In fact, it's just a bit hypoxic...
...
After walking for a while, Xiaozhi came to the dead end rock wall. It seemed that he had reached the end of the cave.
"Pica...!"
Just when Xiaozhi was about to go back the same way and look for other exits, Pikachu next to him suddenly called out.
Xiaozhi: "?"
Following the guidance of Pikachu's Flash Technique, he discovered that there was an entrance path hidden on the side of the rock wall, which was probably only large enough to allow half a human to enter.
The surface is covered with a lot of rattan gravel. If you don't examine it carefully, you can't notice it at all.
"What is this place...?"
Xiaozhi became interested and watched Pikachu get in first, and he quickly followed the pace.
Since a human can't get in...then you can still pass through the path by turning sideways and squeezing.
At the beginning it was extremely narrow, and then I became enlightened. After taking dozens of steps, I suddenly became enlightened.
After Xiaozhi and Pikachu walked more than ten meters forward, the space in front of them suddenly became wider.
Inside the path, there is actually an unusually large stone wall room. Even the ceiling rock wall above is a full ten meters high.
There are even strange luminous algae plants attached to the surrounding rock walls.
"Pickup..."
Pikachu dissipated his flash spell and revealed his chubby posture again.
The surrounding light has not disappeared, and the stone chamber seems to have its own lights, filled with light red light.
"What the hell is this place...?!"
Xiaozhi was stunned. He didn't expect that there was such a place hidden at the bottom of this dark stone cave.
There are neat stone steps at the front, which does not look like any natural terrain.
More like a place created by someone...?
Xiaozhi calmed down for a moment, and he had already noticed a stone door in the deepest part of this large stone room, on top of the stepped stone platform.
It looks more like a place where ancient people performed sacrifices and worshiped gods.
Xiaozhi and Pikachu looked at each other, immediately held their breath, carefully walked up the stairs and entered the stone door.
Inside the stone gate, there is another stone room.
It is still full of strange glowing plants and does not require flash lighting, but the space is much smaller.
The room was empty, nothing special.
Only on the rock wall directly in front is a strange rock mural carved with numerous pattern details and a simple and abstract painting style, occupying almost the entire wall.
What surprised Xiaozhi the most was that there was still one person standing in the mural stone room at this moment.
With his back to him, the man was looking at the mural in front of him and touching his chin, as if he was deep in thought.
He is tall and tall, wearing a purple and black casual suit. The coat is left open at the chest, revealing a red tie.
She has short silver hair with a slightly protruding corner on the top of her head.
Noticing someone entering the stone room, the tall man slowly turned around, and Xiaozhi finally saw the man's complete appearance.
This is an extremely handsome-looking man, with eyes as deep as steel, and an aristocratic aura surrounding him that makes it difficult to look away.
"Mr. Da Che?!"
Xiaozhi blurted out, but the next moment he realized that the man in front of him was somewhat different from Da Che he met in the Kanto region.
Thinking of this, Xiaozhi also had the answer in his heart, and asked in a deep voice:
"Are you...the league champion, Mr. Daigo?"
If this strange stone chamber and ancient murals can attract a league champion to come and explore... then it would make sense.
"Haha, I'm retired, I'm not a league champion."
Daigo chuckled lightly, his voice was low and magnetic, and then his eyes fell on Xiaozhi and Pikachu.
"If I guessed correctly, should you be Xiaozhi from Zhenxin Town? I didn't expect to meet you here..."
