chapter364Zhu Lian is missing"We just discovered——" "It turned out that the whole mountain under his feet was hollow, like an anthill, the soil was loose, and he couldn't help but move too much. ”"And our battle with the Black-winged Ant was so big that we unwittingly shook the already unstable ground under our feet, and engulfed our people in an instant."
Xia Zheng took a deep breath and said, "The speed at which the clods of soil crumble is so fast that even foundation building cultivators have some difficulty reacting.And there was something strange in the anthill, as if there was a force coming from the ground and dragging people down, making it even more difficult for people to escape. ”"By the time I get out, there will only be two or three out of ten people left with me this time."
Hearing this, Su Ziyi and the others were silent."
After the ground moved, we arranged for people to search and rescue.But until we had dug nearly six or seven feet down into the earth and dug out all the holes below, we found no one, as if they had just disappeared. ”"Did you find anything else?"
Zhu Lian interjected."
Nope."
Xia Zheng shook his head with a serious face and said, "There is nothing, not even a trace of struggle."
Divine probing was unimpeded, but until I probed to the end, I didn't find anyone. ”"And-" Xia Zheng raised his head and looked at Zhu Lian, "Elder Qiao Yun also disappeared at the same time.Although her cultivation is not high, she is also a foundation building cultivator, no matter how slow her reaction is, she should have escaped from the ground with those magic weapons on her body. ”"But, no."
At this time, Zhu Lian really didn't know what to say."
In the days that followed, I divided the rest of the people into several groups to find people, and at the same time contacted the friendly forces in the same city of Adari, and the soldiers divided into two ways to find people and search for the Red Turban Army, but not only did we not find anything, but we lost some people.""
And this time, everyone is losing one team at a time, even if I want to find someone to understand the situation, I have nowhere to find it."
Xia Zheng smashed the wall with his fist hatefully, and the roots of his teeth gurgled.Seeing this, Su Ziyi remembered that Xia Zheng's apprentice Cui Yu was also missing."
Anyway, take us around."
Su Ziyi said.There is no basis for what he said, and before he saw the scene, Su Ziyi didn't know what this matter was like.And after Xia Zheng heard his words, he only looked at him deeply, then turned his head and walked out: "Let's go." ”Fifty miles of travel is not too far for a foundation building cultivator of Edgeworth, and it will be less than a cup of tea.It was also Edgeworth standing in mid-air, and Su Ziyi and Zhu Lian found that Xia Zheng was not exaggerating, but was a little conservative.That's more than the confines of a mountain!
Su Ziyi looked at it, and in the surrounding ten miles of area, the ground was collapsing downward, and the trees and stones were inserted crookedly on it, and from time to time they fell down because the land below could not support it, making a sneering sound.The larger area directly turned out the yellow mud, which was fluffy and soft, and it didn't feel strong when you looked at it.And in the midst of these yellow muds, countless holes the size of one zhang are spread all over the ground like big black mouths, waiting for the prey to come to the door.Su Ziyi probed his divine sense.Although it was not as good as Xia Zheng, Su Ziyi's divine sense quickly bottomed out.And as soon as it came to the end, Su Ziyi's complexion changed, and Zhu Lian next to him saw this and asked, "How?"
”Su Ziyi shook his head."
Isn't there anything unusual anywhere else besides here?"
Su Ziyi raised his head and looked at Xia Zheng: "Is there a possibility that someone has set up a formation here and transferred all the people out?"
”He had completely calmed down now, because only in this way could he possibly find Bian Qing and Su Yulang."
Nope."
Xia Zheng glanced at him: "We considered this possibility from the beginning, so we went to hunt down the people of the Red Turban Army."
But in the end, none of our people found any traces of the formation nearby, you know, the formation that can transfer so many people away in an instant is definitely not simple, it is impossible not to leave a trace. ”Truly.After this possibility was ruled out, Su Ziyi had no other thoughts for the time being.His high sword was in the air, watching the sect disciples wearing different robes shuttling through the various cave entrances, searching step by step in vain, trying to find a little clue from the thick earth.He controlled the flying sword and went down: "I'll go down and take a look." ”He said lightly.As soon as he landed, Su Ziyi's whole person sank down, and the soil directly covered the upper of his shoes, which shows how soft the soil here is.And behind him, Zhu Lian also came down, and like him, after discovering the situation here, his eyebrows couldn't help but wrinkle.Su Ziyi chose a path casually and broke into the "anthill".This time, Zhu Lian did not follow him, but chose another path.Su Ziyi didn't put this matter at ease, but continued to walk down.The hole does not lead directly to the bottom, but is zigzag, hidden in the ground like a twisted rope.The surrounding soil is the same as that at the entrance of the cave, and it is a pit when you step on it, and in some places it even collapses half of it, which is obviously very fragile.In addition to this, this hole is indeed as strange as Xia Zheng said.Su Ziyi could feel that there was an invisible hand—no, maybe it should be said that countless hands were sticking towards him from all directions, and they were densely popping up from his face to his clothes, leaving no gaps, and secretly dragging people to the bottom of the cave.The bottom of the cave?
Why?
Following these invisible forces, Su Ziyi walked in that direction as the other party hoped.The further he walked, the stronger and denser these forces became, and even made Su Ziyi feel a slight feeling of suffocation.It seems that all the secrets are hidden at the bottom of this hole.Su Ziyi's eyes shimmered.And just as he was steadily advancing, he was about to reach the bottom of the cave, but a strange movement in his consciousness suddenly woke him up.He kicked his legs back, and the place where he had just stood collapsed.Su Ziyi didn't look at it, he rushed towards the road he came from at a faster and more violent speed, and behind him, the roof of the cave that was not very strong also fell all the way down, and when Su Ziyi came out of the hole, the entire hole was buried.As soon as he got out of the cave, Su Ziyi turned into another cave, which was the one Zhu Lian had just gone.This time, Su Ziyi's movements were light, for fear of collapsing the hole and burying himself inside.By the time he reached his target, a man had come ahead of him, staring at the empty ground in disbelief.It's Xia Zheng.Hearing the movement, Xia Zheng looked back and looked at Su Ziyi with wide eyes, not knowing whether to ask or mutter: "Did you find out?"
Suddenly—my brother was gone. ”Su Ziyi saw that the person was already stunned, and he didn't plan to ask, so he walked over with his legs raised.This hole is the same as the one Su Ziyi went to before, the ground soil is loose, and it is easy for people to leave traces.Although there were three people's footprints on the ground here, they were all interrupted here, and the ground in front of them was flat and there was nothing.There are only him and Xia Zheng here.But the footprints were three people.Zhu Lian was gone, and suddenly he disappeared."
It's the same as Cui Yu."
At this time, Xia Zheng on the side spoke up.Su Ziyi turned his head to look, and saw that the person had already woken up, and said with a tired face: "Inexplicably, I lost all traces, and I didn't even have a clue." ”"It's as if something is blocking our eyes from seeing what's really going on."!
Xia Zheng's words reminded Su Ziyi of what happened to him in the mine outside Shuiyun Town.He looked up and couldn't help but wonder if it was the same situation here.They and even Bian Qing and Su Yulang were actually just trapped in an illusion set up by an ancient power?
As soon as this idea came to his mind, Su Ziyi couldn't stop thinking about it, and the more he thought about it, the more it made sense.He couldn't wait to tell Xia Zheng about his guess, of course, his previous opportunities were hidden by him, and he only said that he had seen it from a book.And Xia Zheng didn't have any other thoughts at this time, when he heard Su Ziyi say this, he was a little unimpressed, but the more he listened, the more he felt that it made sense.Although the ancient period was very far away from them, everyone knew how powerful the ancient cultivators really were and how unattainable the power they possessed, just looking at the true intentions in the mound, it was enough to get a glimpse."
If so, then what are we going to do?"
Xia Zheng asked, and Su Ziyi was stuck.Although he woke up from it last time, and even got a great opportunity, he didn't know what was going on, and naturally he didn't know how to break the current situation.Suddenly, the situation was deadlocked."
So be it."
In the end, it was Xia Zheng who opened his mouth first.At this moment, his eyes were sharp, and he had obviously returned to the proud Xia Zheng of the past: "Since this has happened again and again, it is inevitable that it will not happen next time."
So you might as well let me try it here and see if I can go in and bring people out, while you look at the situation here, and if things don't go right, contact the sect. ”"No, I'll come."
Su Ziyi categorically refused, he was very worried about Bian Qing and Su Yulang, how could he give up like this if he found a clue at this moment?
It's just that to Xia Zheng, this can't be said directly, so Su Ziyi only said: "You are more familiar with the sect than me."
And your cultivation is higher than mine, and your power in the sect is stronger than mine, and it is more shocking to stay outside, so I came. ”Xia Zheng glanced at him deeply, obviously seeing through his intentions, but Su Ziyi looked at him without fear, showing how firm his determination was.In the end, Xia Zheng took a step back: "Okay, you can come." ”
