Chapter 113: The road ahead is in a slight confusion, explaining the reason to me (Part 1)

When I heard this, I was also worried about this child. Don’t have any accidents? This is not an ordinary place. A messy white dragon locked under the Qianlongyuan. What’s going on with this Longquan Cave? I asked Qu Ling: “Why is this cave called Longquan Cave? Is it a name given by the locals?”

Qu Ling shook his head: "You can tell at a glance that there is a stone tablet at the entrance of the cave. It is of unknown age, with the three words "Longquan Cave". This mountain belly cave may have existed since ancient times. Later, muds and stones washed down from the mountain torrents blocked the entrance of the cave, and last year the entrance of the cave was washed away by the mountain torrents. The situation inside is said to be very complicated, with bottomless roads, and underground rivers."

"Wouldn't it be too dangerous to go in like this? Do you need my help?" I heard that this was the case, and I was worried about Qu Ling. It would be okay if it was just a general cave exploration, but there might be other dangers in this place. It would be difficult for an ordinary person to detect and deal with Qu Ling. Although I didn't come for this, since I encountered it, there was no reason not to help her.

Qu Ling: "I know it's a bit rash when I enter the hole like this, but there's no way. If Ding Ding is in the hole, it's a little more dangerous. Are you willing to help me? I'm really embarrassed to let you take this risk too."

"Don't be embarrassed to me, they are all friends. And you also know my identity. I may be a member of the special operation team of the special department and have received special training. Otherwise, you wait for me outside the cave and I will go in and take a look?" I said this with my intention. I didn't plan to run into the cave to search for the gods, but planned to go into the cave to search for the gods and see if there are anyone inside. Of course, this is not convenient for Qu Ling, an ordinary person, to be by his side.

Qu Ling: "Why are you so embarrassed to take risks for me when I have a family matter? I know that your identity is special, but we have discipline. Even if you meet you members of the special operations team in the future, you are not allowed to talk about tasks and your identity. Otherwise, you can accompany me in. It's better to have two people take care of each other. I know you have a lot of skills."

One thing I suddenly remembered was my recent situation. My recent situation has not been very good. Except for the fact that there is no problem with the protection skills of the Golden Dragon Locking Jade Pillar, the soul and energy have always been weak, and it is difficult to cast some spells. In this case, it is very dangerous to wander the Yin Shen to an unknown place. I should accompany her into the cave. If I can't find a child, I will find a way back or ask another expert for help. When I encounter this, I temporarily put the matter of finding Bailong aside and accompany Qu Ling to find Ding Ding first. If there is a mortal here, I can't call Bailong.

We two entered Longquan Cave one by one. Qu Ling was quite prepared and kept buckle the rope around her waist and walked for a while. She gave me a metal triangle ring buckle, which meant that I would also buckle the rope. I smiled and said I didn't need it. I really didn't need it. My body protection skills are not afraid of ordinary harm, and my vagina can see clearly in the dark.

What is the most important thing about cave exploration? The most important ones are two: one is not to get lost, and the other is to always pay attention to lighting. Although it is not convenient for me to travel to Yin God, my spiritual consciousness is still beyond ordinary people. The possibility of getting lost in the cave is very small, and I don’t worry about lighting conditions with my vagina, so I feel at ease with Qu Ling. A few steps inside the entrance of the cave, I saw the stone tablet, which was more than half a person high, lying on one side of the cave wall, with three engravings of Longquan Cave written in seal script on it.

At the beginning, the cave was like a corridor, extending forward in a winding and twists and turns, and the ground under our feet was also very flat. Gradually, the scene changed, and the surrounding cave walls began to change into strange shapes, with large and small pores, and various stalactites were hung above them. In ancient times, it should have been an underground river channel. With the changes in the movement of the mountain, it became a cave like today. After about a few hundred meters of distance, the rope was approaching the end, and we suddenly realized that we had walked into a hall in the belly of the mountain!

The world is so wonderful! Who would have thought that there would be such a big hole in the mountains? It is at least dozens of meters high and two basketball courts are in a circle. The surrounding rocks are in various shapes. Some look like silkworms sprinkle silk, and some are like white dragons circling the pillars. Looking into the distance, there is a shape like layers of terraces in the different colors of the rock formations. The flashlight in Qu Ling's hand almost does not reach the end. Under the light, various stalactites hang out colorful lights, which are the reflection of mica crystal contained in the rock. This scenery is so beautiful, like a dream. If we were not looking for missing children, we would definitely stop here to enjoy it.

"Qu Ling, you shine the light over there, it's where you just shined, and there are words on the cave wall!"

My eyes were sharp and I found a relatively flat white surface on the wall of the cave not far away, with several lines of regular black dots. When I got closer, I found that it was a poem written by someone with a brush. Perhaps due to the age of time and the fumigation of water vapor, some of the handwriting was blurred and unrecognizable, but I still saw the last signature clearly - Xu Xiake.

Xu Xiake, whose name is Hongzu, his courtesy name is Zhenzhi, and his pseudonym is Xiake. He is a child of a family of Gengdu, who is studious and well-versed in books, and is particularly proficient in geography and anime. He has traveled to most of China, leaving behind a 600,000-word masterpiece "The Travels of Xu Xiake" in Ming Dynasty. He was an outstanding traveler, geographer and writer in the Ming Dynasty in China. When he saw the poem on the cave wall, he knew that someone had come here six hundred years ago, and the famous Xu Xiake came. Looking up, there were smoke traces on the stalactites nearby. It seemed that the ancients were raising pine and bright torches when they came here. Qu Ling had words on the cave wall and thought she had found some clues, but when I explained it, she was a little disappointed. Now it is not the time to nostalgia, so it is more important to find someone.

Nowadays, people are traveling in caves. Roads and bridges have been paved and handrails have been installed, and lights are all over the way. However, it is quite dangerous to climb up and down with bare hands in an undeveloped cave. It is absolutely not possible to be free from the ropes. Otherwise, you will not know where to slide to and worry about your life. Looking around in the hall, we found three forks of roads. One is on the right, extending parallel, and the depth is not known where to lead. One is in front, and the obliquely downward is getting narrower and narrower, and you can hear the sound of water flow. There is also the rear left, circling upward, surrounded by stalagmites and stalactites, which is very beautiful!

Where to go? Qu Ling and I looked at each other and walked upwards into the most beautiful entrance. This is probably a mentality judgment. If a child walks in, he is most likely to climb into such a cave. After climbing up for a while, he actually walked into another empty hall on the mountain belly. This hall is smaller than the previous one, but the space is the size of a building. When he walks here, Qu Ling tightens his waist, and the last rope reaches the end! At this time, he only heard a "dang" sound, just like the morning bell ringing in the temple, echoing in the mountain belly for a long time.

What's going on? My head hit the stone bell! A huge rock hangs down right above the hall. This rock is different from ordinary stalactites. The surface is smooth and symmetrical, like an upside-down hill. The lowest point of the rock is only one person above the ground, and my head can just touch it. I hit it one head and made a strange bell. When the bell rings, I feel that the entire surface of the rock is trembling - such a large upside-down stone mountain is actually a completely hollow natural stone bell!

A practitioner like me who has a keen spiritual consciousness and has natural yin eyes, how could he use his head to hit the stone bell? Because I was distracted, when I walked here, I suddenly felt something nearby. Of course, this thing is not a stone or cave, but a kind of spiritual consciousness fluctuation. I don’t know what it is, but in short, it is a form of life nearby. When the stone bell rings, Qu Ling was also startled and asked quickly: "Shi Ye, what's wrong with you? Is your head okay?" I didn't answer her words because I was stunned when I looked ahead.

I saw a woman in white in the air in the cave ahead, and she appeared in the air at the same time as the bell rang. Her facial features were dignified and beautiful, like a fairy in the painting, with a respectful expression and a wave of light in her eyes. I didn't see it clearly for a moment. I just felt that her skin was very white, but not the kind of miserable whiteness that was not visible to the sun, but the purity and softness of the white clouds. There was no wind around, but her clothes were automatically in the air.

As soon as she appeared, she saw me, nodded to me in the air, and said, "Who rings the stone bell and calls me?... It turns out it's Shi Zhenren!... I've been waiting for you for a year, where is the young master?"

How could a woman in white appear? Listen to her tone and know me! She said she had been waiting for me here for a year. Could it be that she was that white dragon? How could she transform into a woman? And the young master she said was definitely not me, most of them were Feng Junzi. I didn't know how to answer for a moment, and Qu Ling pushed me next to me: "Shi Ye, why are you stupid? Look at what you do there? There is nothing."

I came back to my senses and asked Qu Ling: "Did you see something? Have you heard anything?"

Qu Ling: "Don't scare me, there are no one in this black cave!... Have you found anything? Have you heard Ding Ding's voice?"

As soon as she spoke, I realized that the woman in front of me was not a human, nor was she an ordinary form. Qu Ling could not see or hear. I didn't want to scare her when talking to the air. I could only point to Qu Ling at the woman and shake her head, meaning that there were ordinary people here, so we should not communicate in this way, so as not to shock the world!

The woman didn't know whether I was thinking or not. When she saw my gesture, she showed confusion. Then she waved her hand and heard Qu Ling exclaim. Qu Ling's right hand kept holding the light lamp tightly, holding her left hand on the rope around her waist. At this time, her hand suddenly shook and the light lamp fell to the ground and broke, not knowing where it rolled down. The surroundings suddenly became dark. In her eyes, it was pitch black and could not see her five fingers.

"It's broken, it's over! I've been very careful. How could I lose the light? Look for it quickly, otherwise we can't get out! Shi Ye, I'm too stupid, I'm so sorry." Qu Ling's voice was almost crying. No wonder everyone knew what it means to lose lighting in the depths of the cave? Even if there were ropes to guide the way, in this cave full of obstacles and traps, a mistake could be injured or even killed, and it was difficult to walk back in the dark. This was not Qu Ling's fault, it was clearly the intentional one in the white just now.

"Why do you do this? It's not good?" I said to the woman in white.

The woman replied in the air: "Sister Luxue once told me that after transformation, it is best not to meet ordinary people with illusions."

Qu Ling also replied from the side: "I didn't mean it, sorry, I really didn't mean it, what should we do?"

I said to the woman in white again: "She can't see you, there is no need for you."

Qu Ling: "Who can't see me? We can't see anything, how can we get out? Follow me, we crawl out bit by bit by bit, touching the rope."

God! The more you say these three families, the more you are talking, and you can’t figure out who is talking to whom. It’s better to persuade Qu Ling first. I quickly grabbed one of her arms in the dark and advised: “Don’t worry, you can’t see, I can see it. I’ll send you out now and find a way to find that child again…I will come again, let’s go first.”

This was for Qu Ling, and for the woman in white. Qu Ling calmed down a lot when she heard this, and grabbed me tightly as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw: "Can you see it? Can you see it in the darkness? This is great, I almost thought I had implicated you."

I thought to myself: It's not the first time you have implicated me, but this time I don't blame you. I took her hand and walked back. It was really inconvenient to walk in the darkness. She just took two steps and let out a whimper and twisted her foot. At this time, I heard the woman in white say behind me, "Are you here to find a child? I know where he is, come with me." After that, he waved his hand and floated in the other direction.

Qu Ling couldn't hear her words, but just squatted on the ground and said, "I'm really useless. I can't leave anymore, what should I do?"
