When we were all at our wits' end, we suddenly heard from our cousin that there was a way. Everyone cheered up and the room suddenly became quiet. All of our attention was focused on our cousin.

I saw my cousin turning to Old Yuan and saying: "I'm afraid I'm going to trouble Brother Yuan this time. If you want to enter Zhang Liangchen's space, I'm afraid I can only ask for help from Senior Xuan Heng and the others. Last time you said that the general came from the bottom of the water."

The water inlet hole successfully entered Zhang Liangchen's space, so to rescue Professor Shan, they may need their help."

Old man Yuan lowered his head and thought for a while, nodded and said: "I can tell my senior Xuan Heng about this, because Zhang Liangchen is also a threat to them. Although this kind of proactive attack is risky, it will not affect Xuan Heng."

Even the seniors have to do it."

This is indeed a good method, in its current form, because only Xuan Heng and the others can enter that space.

Because the matter was urgent, Old Yuan went to the crater at midnight that day, because almost every night late at night, Xuan Heng and the others would come up and take a walk nearby.

I couldn't help but think that if I met Xuan Heng and the others by chance in the middle of the night, I would be scared to death. Their special look really made them look like lonely ghosts.

Old Yuan has been there for decades and has long been accustomed to this. Besides Xuan Heng, everyone inside knows Old Yuan. For them, Old Yuan is their "lifeline" because of Old Yuan.

They can survive with fresh urine, so they are very good to Old Man Yuan.

Although there are sometimes some obstacles in oral communication, over time, some simple conversations can still be communicated without any problem.

Sometimes, when Xuan Heng went to deliver urine, he would say hello and chat with other people in the crater. To Old Yuan, those people were like his old friends, not at all.

horrible.

We originally wanted to go with him, but Old Yuan refused. We can also understand that in fact, those people were afraid and unwilling to meet anyone else except Old Yuan. Therefore, Old Yuan could only go alone.

.

But no one slept, waiting for news from Old Man Yuan.

Late at night in early autumn, it was already freezing cold. We sat around Mr. Chen's room under the dim light, anxiously waiting for the news that Mr. Yuan brought back.

Old Yuan has been gone for half an hour, but he still hasn't come back, but we are not too worried because the crater is right behind the yard, so close, so there should be no problem. Maybe Old Yuan chatted with them for a while.

During the day, Old Yuan was afraid that he could not explain clearly, so he wrote down the whole story.

But when a full hour passed and we still didn't see old Yuan come back, we got a little nervous. We all wanted to go to the crater to have a look, but we felt it was a bit inappropriate to go there rashly. And we forgot to ask Yuan.

Old man, how long does it take him to see Xuan Heng and the others every time? Therefore, we don't know if it is normal for Old Yuan to go for so long, so we decided to wait and see.

But when there was still no movement after more than two hours, all of us felt that something was wrong. We discussed it for a while and prepared to go to the crater to have a look, in case something happened to Old Yuan.

Everyone took out their flashlights and packed their self-defense weapons. Just as they were about to go out, they suddenly heard footsteps outside - it was Old Man Yuan who was back.

The door was pushed open with a bang. Under the dim light, we saw Old Yuan staggering into the room and falling to the ground. Everyone was shocked and rushed to help him. Everyone kept asking

He said: "Are you okay? What happened?"

Old Yuan was helped up by us, panting heavily, and sat down on the chair in shock. Everyone found that he was not injured, and they relaxed a little.

"Brother Yuan, what's going on? Don't be anxious, speak slowly." The cousin poured a glass of water for Old Man Yuan and comforted him. Old Man Yuan took the water handed over by Crazy Six and drank a few gulps.

mouth, and then came back for a while before slowly recovering.

He took a few more breaths, calmed down his emotions a little, and then said: "It's not good, something happened to my senior Xuan Heng and the others."

After hearing what Old Yuan said, all of us were stunned because we had never imagined that Xuan Heng and the others would have an accident. After all, they have lived here for more than three hundred years, and there are all kinds of dangers.

, they should have experienced it all, and even if Zhang Liangchen attacked them, it would not have a great impact on them. What surprise would they have?

Just listen to Old Man Yuan continue to talk: "Tonight, when I went to the crater, I whistled a few times. This is our agreement. If there are a few of them nearby and they hear such whistles,

You knew I was coming.

I have said before that we usually have a fixed meeting time of about two weeks. I usually don’t go there at night, but there are sometimes exceptions. For example, in winter, there will be scientific and technical personnel who come to inspect the area.

, they usually live here with Brother Chen. If they come, I will immediately notify Senior Xuan Heng and them that night and ask them not to go out for a walk at midnight, so as not to be discovered by those technical personnel.

.

Because I heard Brother Chen say that researchers from the Institute of Astronomy will come out at midnight to use star positioning and do some measurements. In such unexpected situations, we will notify them in advance.

If no one shows up after I blow the whistle, it means that none of them happened to be out for a walk. How should I notify them at this time?

Then I will walk into the crater, crawl under a stone, and then play a piccolo under the stone - there is a pangolin's nest, and that nest leads to the space where senior Xuan Heng is.

So when the piccolo is played there, they can hear it in space.

Senior Xuan Heng, as well as the Ming Dynasty vassal king Zhu Leting, their skin and physique have undergone tremendous changes, so they can hardly sleep, so they will definitely hear the sound of the flute, and then they will come out to see me.

But what is certain is that we cannot open the entrance no matter what from the outside, and the entrance into the space can only be opened from the inside.

According to senior Xuan Heng, it turned out that the cave entrance could be opened from the outside through the special cry of the 'Monkey Eagle', but after they escaped in, they completely locked the special secret door from the inside, so they

It can no longer be opened from the outside.

But tonight, when I arrived at the crater, I whistled a few times. After a while, there was no response. I waited for a while and whistled a few more times, but still no response.

In the end, I had no other choice, so I went under the stone, took out the piccolo, and started playing under the stone, intermittently, for more than ten minutes, but there was still no movement. I felt an ominous feeling at that time.

I had a hunch, because in the past, as long as I blew a few times, the hole would soon open, and then senior Xuan Heng would come out.

Why did it take so long to get no response this time?

When I was wondering, suddenly I heard a creaking sound, and through the moonlight, I saw the entrance of the cave slowly opening. I felt relieved and felt that senior Xuan Heng had finally heard me.

The sound of the flute came out.

But the strange thing is that although the cave entrance was opened, no one came out!

I approached the entrance of the cave and looked inside. There was a faint light coming out of it, and the light was slightly blue. I knew that the light should be emitted by the stones in the space.

I shouted several times at the entrance of the cave, but there was no response. I shouted twice more, but still no one came out. The nerves I had just relaxed suddenly became tense again.

I suddenly felt that the situation tonight seemed very abnormal. Could it be that something happened to Senior Xuan Heng and the others? I was extremely anxious, because for me, Senior Xuan Heng’s safety was more important than my own life and death. We

This old ancestor has been protected by several generations for two to three hundred years. If something unexpected happens during my protection, how can I see my ancestors?

So, I was anxious and went in through the hole. For ordinary people, it is very dangerous to enter that hole, but I knew that if I entered the hole for a short time, it should not be a big problem, because every time fresh urine is produced before

, I will take that kind of decoction - you have all seen it, and that kind of decoction can temporarily resist the strange energy in the cave.

But this was my first time entering the cave. For decades, I had only peeked in from the entrance of the cave. But once I entered, I was completely stunned by the scene inside.

When I first got in, I didn't feel that there was much space inside, but that it was just a narrow corridor, and that corridor was a slope with steps, which could only accommodate one person walking down. In front of it was a slightly narrow corridor.

After the blue light walked downwards for about dozens of meters, the space in front suddenly became clear, and the light emitted by the stone was also surprisingly bright, illuminating the inside like daylight.

What's even more shocking is that it's like entering another world. The space inside is very vast, and there are even plants and flowers. Looking up, you can barely see the top, but you can see dozens of meters away, and there are also

It may not be the end, but it may just be a corner. I never thought that the space below could be so vast.

But I quickly came to my senses and suddenly realized how come no one could be seen in this space? I knew this was not a place where I could stay for a long time, so after trying to calm myself down, I started searching in the space, and I

Shouting while searching.

What makes me feel strange is that if we are in a cave or a relatively closed space, there will be a big echo when shouting, but when I shout in that space, there is no echo at all.

It feels the same when shouting outside. Do you think it’s strange?

To my disappointment, after searching for a long time, I still couldn't find anyone. After I walked far in, and turned a corner, suddenly a large river appeared in front of me, and next to the river.

, there was a glowing stone, and I suddenly realized that it should be the underground river leading to Zhang Liangchen’s space. The general entered Zhang Liangchen’s space through the water inlet at the bottom of the river. Just as I was about to walk towards the river

When, something unexpected happened——

I don't know where, a shrill cry came from: "Run, run, kid." I was stunned for a moment, and then I immediately realized that it was the voice of my senior Xuan Heng, but he only shouted

After a loud bang, there was suddenly no sound. Suddenly I felt a strong fear and ran out.

Fortunately, my legs and feet were still flexible, but I could hear a rushing sound in the river, as if something was chasing it out of the water, and I became even more panicked. When I crawled to the entrance of the cave out of breath, I found that
Chapter completed!
