After using magic to hide the tent, Ryan and Baloo waved goodbye and headed to their destinations. This place is a mining-based town built around the mines in the canyon, so the entire town released
The drop is very large. The mine where Ryan and the others are going to collect flying stones is at the bottom of the canyon.
"This gap is really too high." Hermione sighed after standing on the mountain and looking at the bottom of the deep canyon. "I really don't know how those people in the past could endure this kind of situation where they could only see the sun for one or two hours a day.
Living?"
"Don't forget, the mine below was left by the collection of flying stone ore 700 years ago." Ryan said, pointing to the dirt road dug out of the cliff and the rails on the wooden bridge, "I think the people at that time
There are enough flying stones to easily go up and down the cliff, instead of going up and down the current simple railway or dirt road."
"You're right." Hermione said after carefully observing the remains of these roads and buildings in the valley. "Look at the buildings at the bottom. They should have been used by people in the beginning by using the original facilities in the mine.
The various minerals that were not mined when flying stones were mined were left over. But after the associated mines were mined, people naturally abandoned these mines and buildings. And the buildings currently in use are all in
Halfway up the canyon and above.”
"Then how do we go down?" asked the rose crystal hidden in Ryan's backpack. "We can only go down halfway up the mountain along the road. There is no way further down. How do you plan to go down to the bottom of the mine?
Are you going in there?"
"Of course we're going to fly down. The cornflower household broom I bought can definitely carry the three of us down together. And flying slower shouldn't be a problem for now." Ryan said, and from now on.
He took out a flying broom from his space pocket.
"Actually, it doesn't have to be so troublesome." Hermione looked a little embarrassed and said to Ryan. "I have now learned your magic that uses magic energy to form wings to fly. I can fly by myself."
"Sounds good." Ryan said a little strangely. "But why do I rarely see you practicing flying? You must know that flying, like swimming, does not require simply mastering theoretical knowledge to successfully fly. You also need to practice
It takes a certain amount of practice.”
"I have practiced." Hermione refuted Ryan's statement. "It's just that I haven't practiced in front of you. In order to practice, I went to Teacher Luo Zhen to learn how to use the wings to fly with the mercury lamp."
After the two of them stood on the edge of the cliff and stretched out their wings, Ryan realized why Hermione had avoided him to practice flying. After mobilizing the energy in her body, two masses of blood came out of Hermione's back. The blood seemed to have the power to fly.
Life slowly stretched outward with her back as the core, just like a tree growing continuously, and finally formed a pair of red skeleton-like wings.
After the wings were fully extended, they flapped slightly. As the wings flapped, clouds of black mist emerged from the blood-colored skeleton and began to spread along the skeleton, just like the skin of dragon wings.
The gap in the frame was completely filled. After fluttering her wings slightly, Hermione lifted her feet off the ground and flew up.
Ryan now understood why Hermione was unwilling to practice flying in front of him, because the wings were full of evil and dark power. Especially for women who love beauty, black
The red wings look really bad.
"These wings look pretty cool." As someone who has experienced the cultural baptism of the 21st century in his previous life, Ryan does not think there is anything unsightly about these wings. Instead, he feels they have a special sense of beauty.
"Really? That's great." Hermione felt Ryan's heartfelt praise through the soul connection between the two people, and her whole body suddenly became much happier. "Let's set off now, if we move quickly,
Maybe we can go back for lunch.”
After saying that, Hermione came to the edge of the cliff and cast the Disillusionment Curse on herself, then spread her wings and swooped down. Ryan and Rose Crystal also cast the Invisibility Curse on their bodies and followed Hermione to glide from the cliff.
And down.
This mine is at the bottom of the canyon. It took the three people some time to fly into the mine. This mine is a sinkhole. The entrance is not very big, but it is very deep. After they reached the bottom of the pit, the surrounding area was already
There was almost no light at all, and I could only vaguely look at the patch of sky above my head that was now only the size of a ping pong ball.
"It feels like the underground level we had in first grade. It's also deep underground." After her feet touched the ground, Hermione folded her wings and looked at the small patch of light above her head and sighed, "Unknowingly,
Yes, so much time has passed."
"Yes, it seems like everything just happened yesterday." Ryan folded his wings and sighed with emotion. Fortunately, the two of them had good dark vision after strengthening their bodies many times, at least at a distance of twenty or thirty meters.
You can still see clearly inside.
According to previous adventure experiences, it is best not to light up lights in such a dark and unknown place, otherwise it will easily become a target for enemies hiding in the dark. So in the darkness, the four people set off.
After descending to the bottom of the mine, Jill took the initiative to come out of Rose Crystal's body and volunteered to go to the front to explore the way. According to her, as a heroic spirit in such a complex environment, she is more suitable to act here, and at the same time she can
Being incorporeal at any time, she is more likely to survive even if she encounters a surprise attack.
After walking for a while, Ryan found that the surroundings were full of traces of human activities. For example, there were traces of digging with various metal tools on the stone walls, and some wooden support pillars that had begun to decay. There were even thick layers of wood on the ground.
Metal tracks covered with thick dust.
"Which direction are we going now?" Hermione said, holding the wand and looking a little confused, because the mines in this area are spread out in all directions, some are leftover from the earliest excavations and flights, and more are from later people digging other minerals.
Because of the rich mineral resources here, people have dug in this direction for hundreds of years, and now a cave system like a complex spider web is left underground.
Therefore, Hermione stopped when she came to the bifurcated road with exits up, down, left and right in front of her, not knowing which direction to go next.
"I have a way." Ryan said, taking out a palm-sized golden compass and tapping it with his wand. Soon the pointer in the center of the golden compass pointed to the entrance of a tunnel.
"Let's go this way." Ryan pointed to a tunnel to the left. "I asked Balu yesterday, and he told me that apart from flying stones, the only products produced in this place are various metal ores, and those
Ordinary metal ores will not have strong magic reactions. Therefore, we only need to use this compass to find the place with the strongest magic reaction in this area."
Under the guidance of the compass, the four people took only two hours to arrive at an open space beside an underground river. But they discovered that they were not the first to come here, because there was a group of kerosene lamps in the open space.
In the light, a not tall figure seemed to be packing something next to the light.
In this silent underground space, footsteps can travel very far. So when Ryan and the others walked to a place fifty or sixty meters away from the figure, they saw the man standing up and asking, "Who is there?"
"Relax, sir." From a distance, Ryan saw the man in front of him with a thicker beard than Principal Dumbledore, but his stature looked much shorter, giving the impression that he was a dwarf. "We
They are just tourists from afar who come here to visit the mine where flying stones were mined."
