C72 (1/2)

We're at the end of the line, so we can't tell what's in front of us. The conversation in front didn't last long. I heard a slightly hoarse voice say something in a low voice. Boss Li bellowed, ”Put on your mask!” There was a loud rumble in front of me, and a cold wind blew through both sides of my body. Tiny golden grains streaked across the side of my face.

The golden particle was only the size of a speck of dust, and the light from the flashlight reflected off its bright colors.

I was impressed. It had to be said that wearing a mask was the right decision.

As we continued to climb, there was a sudden clanging sound behind us. I was stunned, but when I looked back, I saw that the entrance had been blocked off by a stone wall.

There was no sign of panic in front of him. Elder Li shouted, ”There's more explosives! ”Don't be afraid!”

This voice was extremely stable. Outside this passage was a huge sealed cave. There were eight square stones stacked on top of each other on all four sides. In the middle was a piece of jade with a very high permeability. I was unable to identify this piece of jade due to my lack of research. Someone beside me took a deep breath and said in a low voice, ”The Emperor's Emerald!”

Honestly speaking, if we were to take this piece of jade out to sell, our reward this time would be completely sufficient. Even if everyone present were to share it, they would each receive a huge amount of money. The price of the jade was not low, and the emperor's jade was like its name as well. As he walked in, he could see that the jade was shaped like a drop of water, with a layer of water on top of it.

No one moved to touch it, only the old man who had called out his name earlier squatted down and examined it closely. It was as if the jade was casually thrown to the ground. The angle was off.

I looked at them with great interest before shifting my gaze to the two overlapping stone pillars at the side. Suddenly, he heard someone behind him take a deep breath, and whispered in grief, ”Who threw it on the ground so casually?”

Ah? I was stunned. Old Li said, ”What's wrong?” What did you lose? ”

I turned my head and saw the old man who was squatting on the ground. At this moment, he had already stood up and said sorrowfully, ”This emerald is excellent, I wonder which idiot actually threw it on the ground!”

”Are you sure you didn't place something similar to a Formation Aperture? How could it be lost? ”

”No!” I don't know if it's a Formation Aperture or not, but come take a look yourself! There was a thin, dark line in this place that made it look like something else. But as soon as I saw it, I knew it had been thrown out. The outside layer is fine, but the inside layer is cracked! ” He spat on the ground angrily and said, ”Don't let laozi know which bastard did it. Otherwise, laozi will throw rocks at him and kill him!”

I was sweating profusely and the old man gave way after a while. However, we won't take anything else from here, so we can only make him feel regret and not rage.

Old Li said, ”Alright, there shouldn't be anything here. These stones should be of some use. Should we head back now or take a look?”

”Let's take a look!”

”It's not good enough to go back as soon as I got here.”

”I've finished reading it, but my heart is itchy from watching it.”

Elder Li said, ”Should we continue our exploration here or something? Go out? ”

Elder Li cleared his throat and said, ”Continue exploring here. Otherwise, we won't be able to get out.”

I was stunned for a moment. The crowd had already parted to form a path. Elder Li walked out naturally and said, ”Don't pretend to be stupid.” I don't believe you didn't see it. Four lines and eight columns. This was Xianyang gossip. If this thing is not broken, we won't be able to get out. ”

”I had you!” Elder Li patted Grandpa Li's shoulder and almost pushed him to the ground.

”Besides, the road is right there! Shall we go back soon? ”

Elder Li coughed twice. His eyes narrowed, and his expression became extremely solemn.

”So we keep going in here?” There is no road here. ”

”Gossip, nine palaces gossip.” At the end of the day, it's all because of the Mirage Armor Technique. ” Grandpa Li rolled his eyes at Elder Li and said, ”Even though there are only eight stones here, it's still a Wonder Gate Escape Armor.”

”According to the rumors,” Elder Li looked at me, ”Five thousand years ago during the Yellow Emperor's era, it was four thousand three hundred and twenty rounds. When Jiang Taisui was reduced to seventy-two. ”When it comes to Zhang Liang, there are only eighteen matches left. He can be considered a complete prodigal son!”

After he finished speaking, he shifted his gaze away and looked at Elder Li. The latter said impatiently, ”Why are you getting more and more long-winded? If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have asked you! ”Where is the road? If worst comes to worst, I'll just return home!”

Hearing that, Elder Li unexpectedly sneered, his hands covering his chest as he said: ”Come! You go! If you can walk to the end, I'll admire you! ”

”You make it sound like who can't!” Elder Li turned around and walked to the side. I was stunned for a moment. I clearly saw that he was walking towards the stone wall, but he didn't seem to feel anything as he walked straight towards the stone wall. Before he walked out of the circle wrapped in stones, he turned around and walked another three to five steps before stopping.

Elder Li scoffed again, ”Aren't you capable of being a thief? Let me see you walk over there. ”

”We'll leave then!” Elder Li said, ”At worst, this daddy will just leave like this!”

Before he could finish his words, he walked straight towards the stone wall. This time, when he walked out of the stone circle, he exclaimed in confusion, ”What's going on!”

Elder Li said, ”Didn't you notice? ”These are three sets of rings.” Talking! I don't understand! ”

”Bold!” Elder Li said, ”Do you think that only the inner circle is not the outer circle? I will tell you that in this closed stone room, no matter where you go, you will always be in the formation. ”

I don't know why, but I only feel that his hands are sometimes on the stone walls, sometimes right next to the huge rock. He has clearly walked to the front of the stone path, yet his hands seem to be searching in the air, moving through the air.

”Understood?” Elder Li rolled his eyes again, ”When you were at the other side, you thought that you were walking along the stone wall! Before we saw you, you were supporting us from left to right, and we couldn't even touch your whole body! ”

Elder Li had already walked around in a circle. After hearing what was said, he walked back to the circle and said depressingly, ”Then what should we do?” Entering the circle was actually quite direct. He practically stepped into it. After entering, he was stunned for a moment before saying, ”I clearly saw that I was standing beside Xiao Hong and Xiao Jin just now. ”Why are you here?”

”Bullshit, who are you calling Little Red?!”
