Heaven's Formula

After reaching an agreement, the investigation team quickly moved into action.Li climbed up to the roof, set up the antenna, and used the audio device to tell Jinxia what he had heard, hoping that the rear would be ready for support. Afterwards, the group left the inn quietly and rushed 260 miles away overnight. Baili Town.
In the afternoon of the next day, Li and the others arrived at their destination—this is also the advantage of the Quan Yao team. As long as Wu Lie is sure that there is no one around, Shan Hui can carry Li and Jiulin to run wildly in the countryside at a far speed. Better than a galloping horse.
Everyone did not enter the town, but went directly to the camp of the Black Gate Sect.
It is about ten miles away from Baili Town. According to common sense, no matter whether they turn back the same way or go east to Huangtu Town, it is impossible to avoid the sight of passers-by on the road.Looking to the south, there are lush jungles and towering mountains. Due to the steepness of the mountains, you can even see a touch of gray on the top of the mountains.
Shan Hui circled around the abandoned camp and said with certainty, "The residual smell is still obvious. They didn't go east or west, but went south directly into the forest area."
"It seems to be so." Li frowned.As far as common sense is concerned, the south is a dead end, so naturally no one would consider them going there, so for the caravan, the Black Gate Sect would have disappeared in place. "Ulie, take a step first and look for their possible direction from the sky, and we will follow the scent behind."
"Understood, leave it to me!" Ulie spread his wings and flew towards the continuous mountains.
……
However, the development of the situation was beyond Li's expectation.
The smell suddenly faded after entering the mountain forest, and basically disappeared when it got close to the mountain wall, and it was difficult to provide effective clues.
After Wu Lie spun twice in a radius of [-] miles, he didn't get anything, so he could only return in vain.
At this moment, Li finally gave birth to a creepy feeling.
5 people actually evaporated out of thin air!
"How is this possible?" Shan Hui showed an unimaginable expression, "The progress in the mountains is much slower than that outside. If they walked four or five days ago, it should be impossible to climb any mountains."
"No, even if they can turn over, they can't avoid Ulie's detection." Li calmed down and reconsidered the fact, "The broken branches and fallen bushes in the forest can prove that the Heimen Cult has indeed come here If they had the trick of changing people out of thin air, they wouldn't have migrated all the way to Baili Town. Similarly, if they took so much pains to cross Suzhou, Leizhou and Ganzhou, if they just deliberately killed these 5 people, It's too uneconomical. What's more, there is Miss Luo in the team, it's impossible to sit and watch them—"
When she said this, she suddenly paused.
"By the way, Luo Qingqing is also in the team! If it's her, maybe she will leave some clues so that we won't be thrown away."
"It's possible." Shan Hui agreed, "But I didn't find anything special along the way. As for Master Luo's smell, it must be very different from when I left Jinxia."
"Let me think about it." Li pondered for a moment, then had a guess in his mind, "...No matter what, let's try it first."
She raised her tail and conceived the prototype of the shock technique sky thunder in her mind.
The long white tail is like an amplifier, spreading out her thoughts, causing ripples in the surrounding air.At this moment, she felt that the flow of Qi changed from chaotic to orderly, concentrating on a point not far away.
The spell was unsuccessful, but Li found a ring made of copper wire on a branch thirty steps away.
"This is..." Ulie probed curiously.
"The copper wire pendant produced by Jinxia, but it has been disassembled and re-tied." Li's heart suddenly became clear, "Luo Qingqing is reminding us of the whereabouts of the Heimen sect in this way!"
Feeling the resonance of spells and medicines is a compulsory course for alchemists when performing spells, but only alchemists who have been trained by Jinxia can connect the shock technique with the copper wire pendant.
The detection range of qi is much wider than that of the naked eye.
In this way, even if the clues are hidden in some extremely secret places, there is no need to worry that it will be difficult for Jin Xia's followers to find out.
As for the followers of the Black Gate Sect, it was impossible to keep an eye on Luo Qingqing's entire movements.
This is undoubtedly an excellent one-way road sign!
Chapter 727 The Underground Mechanism
"This copper ring is hung on a branch pointing to the southwest. Could it be that the Heimen sect went to the bottom of the big stone wall?" Jiulin took off her hat and exposed her long ears, "But there is no road to the mountains at all. , can’t squeeze [-] refugees.”
"Maybe there are caves or other places where you can hide." Shan Hui said, "This kind of terrain is indeed easy to isolate the smell, and the Black Gate Sect has not made it clear that the world is located in Baiyao Mountain."
If everything is just a hoax, then there is no reason to hesitate.
With Jinxia's current strength, it is more than enough to deal with a few emissaries of the Heimen Sect.
Half an hour later, Li followed the guidance of the copper wire pendant to the bottom of a mountain peak. The last small bundle of copper wire was pressed under the rock, and in front of it was a towering and steep rock wall.
"There is no way to go." Li squeezed the copper wire in his hand - it can be seen that its length is shorter than the previous copper wire bundle, which shows that even if Luo gently disassembled a pendant into several parts To use, but also to the point of being sold out.
"I don't think the boss is looking for the wrong place." Shan Hui sniffed, "The smell here is not too characteristic, but there is indeed a faint smell of the camp on the rock wall."
The four looked at each other, and the same answer popped up in their hearts.
"Secret door".
This kind of institution is generally seen in the mansions of noble families, but it doesn't mean that it won't appear in the suburbs.
If someone is trying to hide something, it is also reasonable to place a secret door in a rock wall.
"Let me find it." Jiulin volunteered.
"What are you going to do?" Li asked.
"I can ask the flowers and vines on the rocks to help." The rabbit demon replied while pressing his hand on the stone wall, "My Qi will spread along with their roots and promote their inward elongation. If there is a cavity, this area The expansion of the flowers and plants will be much faster, so that I can know where the secret door is."
Having said that, in practice it is not that simple to operate.There are a lot of moss and plants clinging to the steep rocks, and they consume a lot of energy. It took the four of them two full days near the rock wall before Jiulin noticed something strange in an inconspicuous bush.
If you just look at it from the outside, this lush area is no different from other plants in the mountains and plains, and it doesn't look like it was camouflaged the day after tomorrow.
Obviously, there are alchemists who are good at exchanging spells in the Black Gate Sect, and after the large army passed through the secret door, they closed the area again.
After that it's easy.
After resting for half a day, Jiulin poured all her energy into the bushes here, and the roots of the plants expanded wildly under the night, squeezing out a small gap in the rock cover that served as the dragon-breaking stone.When the stone shattered, a gloomy cold wind blew out from the dark hole, which also lifted everyone's expressions!
The inside of this mountain wall is indeed hollow!
The four of them immediately turned into animal forms and got through the broken "secret door".
After her eyes got used to the dim light environment in the cave, Li couldn't help being taken aback—this place was not as humid and claustrophobic as she had imagined.On the contrary, the surrounding scene does not look like a normal cave at all. The stone pillars support an empty underground space. The ground under the feet is smooth and smooth, as if it has been deliberately polished, and even bumps are rarely seen.
Before going far, something even more bizarre happened.
A square hole appeared in front of the four of them.It is about three feet wide, and there are steps extending downward, each step is the same size, and the corners are vertical, very regular.
"Is this... the headquarters of the Heimen Sect?" Shan Hui said cautiously.
No wonder he thinks so.
Even the stairs have to be repaired so neatly, the people who live here must be very particular.
The person who has the ability and status to do this in the mountains, everyone can guess that only King Yong is.
A more exaggerated idea popped up in Li's mind.
The place of King Yong's burial has always been a mystery. Both the Heimen Sect and the Qixing Privy Council are rumored to be looking for the whereabouts of the real tomb.
Although there is still a long distance from this place to the depths of Baiyao Mountain, who can guarantee that King Yong will be buried deep in the mountain?
The blood sacrifice of 5 people, the unfathomable evil, the revived King Yong, Luo Weiwei who fell into the hands of the enemy... one after another, bad omens entered the fox demon's mind.
"We have to hurry up." She couldn't help but said eagerly.
The expected large-scale sacrifice did not appear, and the underground space was also orderly, but it was not so empty, and they soon came to an end.
In addition, this place is no longer pitch black, and a few dim lights above the head are like starlight, providing illumination for barely seeing things.
At the end of the burrow is a row of houses with small transparent windows. This design is almost superfluous in the underground.The sun outside can't shine here at all, so what's the use of windows?
But Shanhui was attracted by these rooms.
"No mistake, the Black Gate Sect must have been here!" He took a deep breath, "The smell here is stronger than outside, we have found the right place!"
"But what about the [-] refugees?" Li also smelled the smell, but she couldn't understand it at all. These houses can only accommodate a few hundred people at most, and the holes in the ground can only accommodate about [-] people. How do you hide people so tightly?
At this moment, a string of green lights suddenly lit up in the room!
A woman's voice also came from above the head——
"This is a special train to the escape tower. Since you are passing through the exposure area, please wear protective clothing to avoid accidents. Once you are finished wearing it, we will start automatically without you needing to do anything. Please note that this train does not Accept the stopover, please make sure you have obtained the escape qualification, otherwise the legal problems brought about will be borne by the passengers themselves."
The four looked at each other.
"Who are you?" Li raised his head and asked, "Come out!"
Shanhui showed his fangs.
But the woman did not answer them, but repeated the words.
"Master Li, look there!" Jiulin pointed to the place where the green light was lit.
Under the soft light, four sets of white clothes were hung on the wall of the room at some point.
Is that the protective clothing the woman mentioned?
This kind of clothing with clothes and pants connected together is very different from Jinxia City's gown and short lining, but Li seems to have seen a similar design in Xia Fan's study.
She bit her lip and walked over to take off her clothes.
Undoubtedly, the woman did not intend to take her questioning seriously.I am afraid that the other party will not answer anything before putting on the protective clothing.
Although it was the first time he saw such clothes, Li did not encounter any difficulties in wearing them.There are illustrations where the clothes are hung to describe the wearing process in detail, and she only needs to follow the gourd to draw the gourd.
Chapter 728 Depths of the Mountains
"Master Li... Is this really something that the Heimen sect can do?" Wulie picked up his clothes and compared them to his chest.
The other two followed suit.
The four pieces of clothes are actually different in size, and they can just match their body shapes.
In other words, since entering the house, someone has noticed their whereabouts, and "intimately" prepared perfectly fitting clothes for them.
If the Heimen Cult had this ability, how could it have been silent for a hundred years?
"I guess, this is a bridge." Li had already put the protective suit on himself.
"Bridge?" Shanhui asked puzzled.
"This woman's voice has not changed from the beginning." Even in such an incredible situation, the fox demon still did not miss some details.She noticed that when the woman kept repeating the words, even the tone and pauses were kept exactly the same, which is basically impossible for normal people.
Since the audio instrument can convert electricity into sound, there may also be a mechanism that continuously supplies current to make the sound appear repeatedly.Li heard that Xia Fan had described many magical effects of the shock technique, and his understanding of electricity was second only to Mo Yun. Even if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he had already left an impression in his mind.She realized that this woman might not be a living person, but a shock organ that repeatedly stated words.
Her only role is to guide the people who come here to the escape tower.
As for whether it was the Black Gate Sect or the scouting team, it made no difference to her.
This is a bridge that anyone can cross.
After listening to Li's conjecture, the three of them couldn't help showing a look of surprise.
"It makes sense." Tengu thought thoughtfully, "That's why the Heimen Sect didn't assign people to stay in this place... because they can't control the bridge itself at all."
"But it also shows that the other party doesn't care about outsiders passing through the bridge. The key is the end of the bridge." Li had already considered it clearly, "There are many hiding places in this room. Once we reach the so-called escape tower, we will immediately Get smaller and wait for the opportunity to act."
After speaking, she put a transparent helmet on top of her head, and then rotated the metal ring on her wrist according to the schematic diagram.
There was only a soft bang, and the baggy clothes suddenly tightened to fit her figure.
Li let out a soft cry, and subconsciously covered his chest.
Who designed this dress?
It's too embarrassing to be like this!
Although her whole body was tightly wrapped, the clothes that fit her perfectly outlined her figure. If there was another layer of curtains, wouldn't it be equivalent to not wearing anything at all?
"Shanhui!"
"Boss, I didn't see anything!" Tengu had consciously covered his eyes.
At the same time, a gentle breeze blew from the helmet, which made Li calm down quickly.I have to say that although this suit is much tighter, it doesn't feel restrictive at all, and the movements of hands and feet are completely unimpeded, just like another layer of skin.The person who designed it is definitely not for some bad taste, but it can indeed achieve the best balance between sports and protection.
"Okay, put on your protective clothing quickly, too," Li urged.
When the four of them were fully dressed, the door of the room was also closed.
"The liveness test confirmed that the car starts." The woman's voice finally changed.
Afterwards, Li only felt his body shake slightly, and the scene by the window suddenly changed—the other side was no longer a wall, but a mass of darkness.
"What should I do now?" Jiulin leaned against the corner of the room, a little uneasy.
Even though they were wearing helmets, the four of them had no communication barriers. The transparent barrier in front of them didn't seem to hinder the sound. Whether it was external noise or whispered words, they could hear them clearly.
"You should just wait."
Li Neng felt that there was a strong Qi here, as if it enveloped the entire room. If the bridge itself could move, there must be some kind of mechanism converting the Qi into power.
A quarter of an hour later, a bright light suddenly flashed outside the window!
Although it is a hundred times weaker than sunlight, it is particularly eye-catching in the boundless darkness.
The light is fleeting, only a few breaths back and forth.
But everyone saw the momentary scene outside the window.
