"At first, the temperature of the extremely cold water gushing out of the spring was only more than ten degrees below zero. But every time the excavation deepened by one mile, the water temperature would drop by one degree. When the ground was dug thirty or forty miles deep, the water temperature had dropped to close to minus five degrees.
Ten degrees, even spiritual level cultivators cannot withstand this kind of temperature for a long time. Only earth level experts and above can continue digging, but how many earth level experts can we summon to dig?"
Alexander smiled bitterly and said: "We have dug to the deepest depth of 60 miles underground, which is about 30,000 meters, but we still only see springs and no underground rivers. If we dig another 40 miles to reach a depth of 50,000 meters, it is estimated that the water temperature will drop to
It is more than 100 degrees below zero. Even earth-level powerhouses cannot bear this temperature. Heaven-level powerhouses are required. First, regardless of how many miles they have to dig to reach the truth of the underground river..."
Alexander joked: "Can your Tianlong Empire hire heaven-level experts to be excavation workers?"
Don't be kidding. In an ordinary empire, even a low-level heavenly person would be regarded as a strong protector of the country and worshiped properly. How could a strong protector of the country be allowed to work as a miner? According to Alexander, the people of Crazy Lion City
Except for Hunwu City, no empire on the Qinglong Continent is qualified to dig into the underground river.
Zheng Feng didn't expect that this underground river was hidden so deep, and even if it was tens of thousands of meters deep underground, it would still have an impact on the cities on the surface. I'm afraid there really is a treasure, otherwise it would never be so weird. Knowing that
There is a heavy treasure under the city, but there is no ability to dig it out. This is as painful for the Wild Lion City as guarding the treasure but not having the key, seeing it but not getting it!
Zheng Feng suggested: "Then let's wait for the next full moon night. It won't be many days anyway, and the ghost girl is likely to appear again. Do you find anything special when you see it?"
In addition to seeing the ghost girl late at night and early in the morning, all the witnesses actually have another thing in common about the time, that is, they all saw the ghost girl from the 14th to the 16th of the month. These three days are the nights of the full moon of the month.
There have always been rumors among the people that the night of the full moon is the most yin-filled time of the month, especially on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. When the full moon hangs in the night sky, even mortals may see demons and ghosts appearing!
"Inside the palace, or outside the palace?" Alexander asked. Apparently he also noticed that the ghost girl haunted the three nights when the yin was the strongest, but he could not tell where she would appear next.
Zheng Feng responded without hesitation: "Inside the palace!"
Alexander asked strangely: "Looking at your tone, how can you be so sure? You know, it appears on the canal quite a few times."
Zheng Feng shrugged and said: "Intuition."
Alexander was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly, but he didn't object. I don't know why, but Zheng Feng's intuition seemed to be correct. Zheng Feng didn't say it out loud. In fact, this was not intuition at all, but Alice's prediction.
In it, the full moon, stone bridge, pavilion, lake, ice, shadow, Alexander, arrows, blood...
He doesn't intend to change the process, he just wants to change the result!
"There is still a week until the next full moon night. Are there any records about the history of Crazy Lion City here? The more detailed the better! Maybe we can find some clues about the underground river from the history of this ancient city." Zheng
Feng said, in fact, he said this for Taiwei.
After learning about the strange underground river, Taiwei was extremely excited. She wanted to dig deep into the ground to explore it herself. In her words, there must be a treasure hidden under such natural danger. For treasures
, the resistance of the tail is no different from that of other dragons, it has always been negative...
Alexander thought for a while and said: "There should be documents about this in the palace library. I will order people to submit those documents tomorrow. Do you really want to go on?"
"We don't rule out this possibility. Don't you want to know what is buried under this city?" Zheng Feng asked back. Since the Mad Lion Empire has also sent people to explore, the degree of danger should not be too great. If
If you really can't bear it, you can just go back when the time comes.
Seeing that Zheng Feng had made up his mind, Alexander stopped trying to dissuade him. Besides, he had always been very curious about the underground river under the city, but he had been unable to explore it due to lack of strength before.
The next day, Alexander ordered people to move all the books and documents about the history of Wild Lion City in the palace library to the Ice Lake Palace. Stacks of books piled up into mountains of books, covering the palace hall.
More than half the area.
It seems that with so many documents, Zheng Feng and Alexander alone must be too busy. In the end, Taiwei and Youyou also joined in. Youyou is okay, they are all in human form anyway, and they look relatively good to outsiders.
It was easy to accept. But when Alexander saw Zheng Feng’s magical eggshell flying out and flipping through the book with his slender tail, it felt so weird...
Most areas of Crazy Lion City are still under reconstruction. There is nothing interesting to see. The little girl did not make any noise to go out. She stayed quietly in the palace and accompanied Zheng Feng to read the documents that slowly filled half of the hall.
Two days later, the palace maid Changtong reported: "Your Highness Prince Yu, there are four guests outside the palace asking to see you. They seem to be looking for someone."
Alexander put down the book in his hand and said, "Invite them in."
When the chief maid led Zhang Deshuai and four others to the Ice Lake Palace, Zheng Feng and Alexander were not surprised. They had already expected that these people would definitely come to ask for someone, so why let that little brat Gu Shinan follow them.
"Your Highness, the guests have arrived."
Alexander waved his hand to the chief maid and said: "Yes."
The head maid bowed and retreated. Nie Longhen, a familiar guy, immediately smiled and said: "We meet again, and you two run really fast."
Alexander smiled and said: "I have something to deal with urgently."
Zhang Deshuai scanned the hall, and there were almost books all over the floor. Among the piles of books, he saw Zheng Feng, Alexander, Alice, Youyou, and even an egg using its tail to flip through books. But there was no one they were looking for, so he asked: "
Where is Xiaonan?"
Zheng Feng responded: "Practice in the courtyard."
"That little brat is actively practicing?" Nie Longhen asked in surprise. Based on his knowledge of the brat, this was almost impossible.
Alexander and Zheng Feng looked at each other and showed a playful smile at the same time. According to common sense, it is indeed not an easy task for that kid who thinks highly of himself to take the initiative to practice. But since that kid was dropped by Alice in an instant
'Later, he became much more honest.
Perhaps he was stimulated by Alice, and the special environment of Crazy Lion City was indeed more suitable for him to practice, so even if no one forced him, he began to work hard and consciously go to the ice lake to practice every day, hoping that one day he could
Get your dignity back from Alice, at least you won't be beaten again...
Alexander and Zheng Feng smiled and did not explain. They just led the way and led Zhang Deshuai and his party to the courtyard. When Nie Longhen saw Gu Shinan sitting quietly in the pavilion, he was stunned and said with a smile: "This little
Po boy, he didn’t take the initiative to practice in front of the master, but he became so active after leaving the city. Could it be that he wanted to show off to someone, right?"
As he said that, he glanced at Alice inadvertently, and his smile looked a little wretched. Gu Shinan, who was meditating, suddenly frowned because he felt a nasty breath appearing nearby, which made him
He couldn't calm down. This smell was both annoying and familiar. If I was right, it must be that bastard named Nie!
Gu Shinan slowly opened his eyes, and immediately saw everyone on the aisle. In addition to Zhang Deshuai, Li Heying, there was also a guy who exuded a disgusting aura. He was showing the same wretched smile as usual, which was particularly dazzling.
.
"Nie, why are you here?" Gu Shinan said in a bad tone. Seeing Nie Longhen early in the morning was definitely not a good thing for him.
"We have already left a mark on you. Do you think you can escape our tracking? A brat is a brat, don't be naive!" Nie Longhen said with a smile. If he doesn't even have this method, what will happen to the master?
Maybe you can feel free to let them take this little kid out.
