Chapter 455: Cave!

Even at Hu Ming's speed, about four hours had passed since he climbed to the top of the cliff.

After waiting for about an hour, Xiaohua followed up from behind.

After sitting down on the edge of the cliff and resting briefly for a while, Hu Ming and Xiaohua stood up, fixed the specially customized super-extended climbing rope they had brought, and lowered it.

The people below have been waiting for a long time.

Using hanging ropes, the workers below hoisted all the equipment up through a pulley.

It is worth mentioning...Hu Ming and Xiaohua knew Wu Xie's pipit physique. From the beginning, they did not expect Wu Xie to be able to climb up on his own...

At this time, Wu Xie was still hanging in the air at a third of the way, and he didn't know how many times he had taken a break!

"...Holy shit...these two people must have done this on purpose, right?

Wu Xie's eyes twitched as he looked at the metal basket parked next to him. He had ten thousand words in his heart, mmp, he must say them today!

Then... Wu Xie pinched his nose, and lay down obediently in the empty space reserved for him inside the basket, lying down like a salted fish.

To be honest, his limbs were already sore right now.

If it weren't for this life-saving basket, he would most likely have muscle weakness and hang here all night, right?

Half an hour later, Hu Ming and Xiaohua had pulled up all Wu Xie's additional equipment.

It is worth mentioning that this metal basket is actually a special piece of equipment prepared by Xiaohua.

The whole thing is roughly a metal cavity similar to the shape of a human rib, enough to accommodate three people lying on it side by side.

This thing is called "bag" by Xiaohua, and it will be the residence of several people for the next few days.

This thing was actually invented by the Fenlan people and is a professional equipment used by bird photographers to shoot eagles on cliffs.

With this thing, people can use a sleeping bag to live on the cliff for several months without landing.

There are too many holes in this cliff!

None of the three of them knew which hole it was, so they had to use stupid methods to find it one by one.

This is destined to be an extremely time-consuming task. If you are unlucky, it is expected to take a week or two.

And this cliff is too high. It is not practical to go back and forth from the top of the cliff to the bottom of the mountain every time. It is a waste of time and energy, so this thing is of great use.

"Uncle Ming, Xiaohua, you must want to see my joke on purpose, right?"

Wu Xie lay motionless on the bag, with his eyes closed and his hands on his chest, feeling extremely peaceful.

He didn't want to open his eyes and see these two idiots who were deliberately trying to tease him.

Hu Ming and Xiao Hua looked at each other and smiled.

Isn't this a matter of course?

Isn’t it normal to find some fun in a boring job?

At this time, the sky has turned late and the sun is setting in the west. Watching the sunset from the top of the towering mountain has a unique flavor.

Here is the real decision. It is almost impossible to find a place to stand on the top of the mountain, which is full of low bushes and gravel.

The three of them sat side by side on the edge of the cliff, with their feet dangling in the air. Below them was an abyss, with snow-capped mountains right in front of them.

For safety reasons, the three of them hung down seven more auxiliary ropes to secure the bag.

Tonight, we will start living on the bag.

The next day, with the sunrise, the three of them woke up leisurely, had a simple breakfast, and then began a preliminary investigation and search.

Huo Xiangu was driving to the lake in Banai Village. In addition, Huo Xiangu was old and needed to stop many times to rest along the way.

Calculating the time, there are still about two days before they arrive at their destination.

It is worth mentioning that originally, according to Xiaohua's plan, Fatty originally belonged to their action team for Wu Xie.

But Fatty Ya really misses Yuncai so much that he will act with the little brother and the others no matter what.…

For the next two days, the three of them lived like a gecko, or the Qiang herb collectors who lived here in the past.

The hard life forced Wu Xie to grow from a rock climbing rookie to a rock climbing expert.

It can only be said that practice is the truth. No matter how rich the theory is, it is not worthy of being called a veteran.

The three of them crawled on the cliff relying on safety ropes, exploring each cave on the cliff one by one from top to bottom.

Most of these caves are not deep and are mostly natural mountain cracks.

In particular, most of the caves are actually only about an arm's length deep, so it is impossible for the three of them to be looking for them.

Among them, in some caves that can accommodate humans, the three of them also found many skeletons, and the ancient hair buns of some skeletons were still vaguely visible.

But most of them have been pecked to pieces by birds foraging at high altitudes.

These are the alchemists who came here in the ancient times to seek the way to immortality and came here with all their might, seeking the way to become immortals.

Fortunately, perhaps because the three of them had pretty good luck, Hu Ming and the others found their destination in the afternoon of the next day.

The cave where a whole volume of silk scrolls from the Warring States Period was produced.

There are obvious traces of artificial reinforcement in the cave.

The cave is very deep, and the dark cave cannot be seen at a glance. At the entrance of the cave, there is a skeleton sitting cross-legged.

Judging from the remaining clothing and other traces around him, it can be inferred that he was one of the people who carried out "the largest tomb robbery in history" that year.

A little deeper, in a cave that is half a person tall and one meter wide, sit cross-legged these two mummies who look like door gods.

The mummy was wearing an iron suit, and it was impossible to judge its specific age of life from its appearance.

This kind of iron clothing is actually a kind of blessing for folk cultivation. This kind of custom existed in the ancient Sichuan and Shu Dynasties.

It means restraining one's various desires, thereby sublimating the spirit to an indescribable and mysterious realm, which the ancients called near immortality.

"It's a pity that immortals don't exist at all. These people have overcome all kinds of difficulties, pains, and desires to come here just to get closer to the sky and the fairyland they imagined in their hearts."

"But in the end it was all in vain."

The searchlight shone on the two mummies, and Hu Ming sighed softly.

"We have been working in the air all day, and the physical exertion is too great. I'm afraid now is not a good time to explore."

"According to Grandma Huo's information, there is a great terror in the depths of this cave. Back then, people from the Nine Sects encountered strange things here and suffered heavy casualties. In the end, the passage was reinforced and sealed with cement."

Xiaohua looked at the dark cave that could not even be illuminated by light, her eyes filled with deep fear.

At that time, it was the first event for the nine sects to work together. Many experts from the nine sects and even the heads of the sects who had achieved great fame participated.

Even so, that time also caused the Nine Sects to bleed a lot, and a large number of good players stayed here, which indirectly led to the current decline of the Nine Sects.
