Chapter 111

"I didn't bring it either." Yi Xingchen said.

"Then, what should I do? We can't find the exit without lights. What about the corpses on the ground? Will they bring scythes? No, the corpses on the ground are all clothes, pants, shoes and thrown off. They are all naked. Where can there be scythes? What should I do?" Tang Xiaoqi said anxiously.

Yi Xingchen said: "The little Taoist priest who just killed him may have a fire scythe on his body."

"Okay, let's look for it quickly. Where is his body? It should be nearby."

Tang Xiaoqi said, squatting down, then she remembered that her body was still tied to Yi Xingchen, and quickly said, "You can untie me quickly."

Yi Xingchen quickly untied her belt, and Tang Xiaoqi left Yi Xingchen's upper body and couldn't help but breathe a few breaths. Thinking of the moment when he jumped out of the cave before, she was extremely desperate, thinking that she would really fall to death this time, but she didn't expect that Yi Xingchen could actually grab an iron chain in the air. She suddenly remembered the words Yi Xingchen said before, "With me there, there is no problem." As expected, that's true.

She was in a good mood when she escaped from death and temporarily forgot about the piles of corpses around her. She couldn't help but hug Yi Xingchen and said, "Brother Gua'er, you are really capable. How did you know that there will be an iron chain in the cave?"

Yi Xingchen couldn't help but be proud of his ability to tell fortunes. Of course, it was also very satisfying to show off before the beauty, and said that this could relieve both parties' tension and pressure. He laughed and said, "I have calculated the hexagram, which is the small hexagram of Leishan. The moving line is in the fifth line. There is a sentence in the fifth line of this hexagram, "There is a sentence in the cave, ", ", Gong Yi, take that in the cave." That is, Wang Gong used an arrow tied with a rope to shoot birds and obtained prey from the cave. From this sentence, I thought that there might be a rope in the cave. I was not sure at that time, so I could only take a chance to gamble. I didn't expect that I really bet right, and I calculated that we have a lot of life, hehe."

"It's not that we have a lot of life, but that's your fortune teller. I said you are the most capable, and you can calculate it. It's so amazing. It's great to save our lives. "Tang Xiaoqi hugged him happily and smiled.

"Don't be happy first, let's find the scythe quickly. It smells too smelly to find the outlet here, so we can't breathe. If this continues, we will not starve to death and will be fumed to death. It's better to leave quickly."

Tang Xiaoqi agreed repeatedly, squatted down, and the two began to grop on the ground. Soon, Tang Xiaoqi touched a body wearing clothes. She said happily: "I found it, this should be the clothes I was wearing."

Yi Xingchen followed her voice and touched the ground. It was indeed a corpse. Judging from his figure, it was the little Taoist priest. However, when he fell from such a high place, he had already broken all his internal organs and bones all over his body. Fortunately, his clothes would not be broken.

Yi Xingchen groped on his shattered corpse and screamed in surprise: "There is a fire sickle!"

Yi Xingchen has been in the Tang Dynasty for a while and is already very familiar with this ancient ignition device. It is a small box filled with a cylinder. He took it out and handed it to Tang Xiaoqi and said, "Please take it, I will make a torch first. You can wait for a while to ignite the fire. Remember, there must be a hill made of hundreds of corpses under us. I can only use their bones to make torches. If you see it at that time, don't be scared to throw away the scythe, then we won't be able to find it."

Yi Xingchen knew that Tang Xiaoqi was timid and had to say this before. If he really lost the fire sickle and couldn't find it, he would be really crying.

Tang Xiaoqi was so scared that she was trembling when she thought of the corpses around her. However, after escaping from death, she became more bold and said, "I understand, I won't throw it away, don't worry."

Yi Xingchen squatted down, took off the clothes of the little Taoist priest, then took off the fabric of his clothes wrapped around his hands, and touched a leg bone on the ground that had been rotten to only white bones. He prayed for his love and borrowed the bones and asked for forgiveness of the deceased. Then he broke the leg bones and hung the clothes on it.

Then, Yi Xingchen said to Tang Xiaoqi: "You can flint. I remind you again that after the light is lit, don't be afraid to see the corpse. Never remove the scythe."

Tang Xiaoqi nodded again, plucking the courage to ignite the torch in his hand. He tried not to look around. In fact, the small light could not shine so far. He could not see the corpse under his feet. He could only see the near his palm. He groped to the torch made of bones and clothes held in Yi Xingchen's hand, and lit the clothes hanging on it.

Yi Xingchen waited carefully for the fire to get bigger before he wrapped himself around the corpse, so that he would not burn it all soon.

He held the bone torch in one hand and pulled Tang Xiaoqi in the other, slowly walked down the pile of bones. The corpse thrown from the top of the cave was extremely heavy near the entrance of the cave, and the space below was still very large. After descending the corpse mountain, he reached the bottom of the empty cave.

When the two of them stepped on the solid rocky ground, they breathed a sigh of relief. After walking a few more steps forward, they hit the mountain wall.

Yi Xingchen and the others walked around the mountain wall for a while without finding any other exits. There were hard cliffs everywhere. They couldn't help but sink their hearts to the bottom.

Yi Xingchen decided to calm down first. He pulled Tang Xiaoqi to sit down on the ground and stomped out the flames on the remaining half of the clothes. There were relatively more tinder in the scythe just now, and it should be able to cause fire several times, so there is no need to rush to ignite the fire, and the fabric must be kept.

They sat against the mountain wall, and Tang Xiaoqi said desperately: "Brother Guaer, what should we do if there is no exit? Will we starve to death here or be fumigated here?"

Yi Xingchen laughed a few times and said, "Don't worry, didn't I say it? With your brother who is here, everything is fine."

His tone was very relaxed, and he was actually very nervous, but he didn't want to spread this emotion to the other party. Moreover, it would affect his thinking when he was nervous. He had to relax as much as possible in order to find a way to get out of the predicament.

After the two of them just walked around, he looked at it carefully and did not have any words. What should he do?

Previously, it was possible to infer from the hexagram that there would be an iron chain in the cave, so that he could escape his life. That was the inspiration obtained from the Yao Ci. Now that I want to escape from the predicament, I am afraid that I can only look for opportunities from the Yao Ci.

So he tried his best to calm himself down and rethink the verses and scriptures about the Little Guo Gua of Leishan. After searching in his mind, he suddenly remembered a sentence in the Little Guo Gua of Leishan: "The sound of birds left behind should not be up, but down, and it is auspicious."

Here we say, "Yixia, is the passage on the ground of this cave?"

Just now, the two of them just walked around the mountain wall and searched on the mountain wall. They did not find any passages. Will the passages be on the ground?

Since the words in the yao say it is good to give it a good fortune, you must find it.

Yi Xingchen said to Tang Xiaoqi excitedly: "Light the torch!"

Tang Xiaoqi was in despair. When she heard Yi Xingchen's words excitedly, she thought he had found a passage, so she agreed excitedly. She quickly took out the flint and lit the fire. After igniting the bone torch in Yi Xingchen's hand, Yi Xingchen pulled her with one hand, bent down and began to search slowly on the ground. Tang Xiaoqi and him were behind him, not knowing what he was looking for.

The ground of this cave is relatively flat, and the corpses are only concentrated in the middle of the three buildings. They are surrounded by mountain walls and are not covered by corpses. They searched along the areas without corpses.

However, the clothes in his hand had been burned out. He turned the ground several times, searching every inch of land, without any signs of mechanism or passage. He picked up another rib and poked it on the ground, hoping to hear the hole in the sound and find the hidden passage, but it also failed. All the sounds were similar, and there was no sign of any empty echo that indicated that there was a hidden passage below.

At this time, all the clothes in his hand were burned out.

Yi Xingchen threw away the last blackened leg bone in his hand in despair, and pulled Tang Xiaoqi to sit on the ground.

Tang Xiaoqi heard Yi Xingchen silently. You know that he had not discovered anything, nor had he any way to get out of trouble. His heart was extremely desperate. He held his knees and buried his head in his arms and started crying. He didn't expect that he had escaped from death before, and he thought he had escaped and saved. Unexpectedly, he was just delaying his death a little, and there was no way out, and he would still starve to death and die of thirst in this cave.

Yi Xingchen reached out to hug her slim waist, Tang Xiaoqi turned around and threw herself into his arms, hugging his neck tightly: "Are we going to die? Aren't you very accurate in fortune-telling? Then do it, what should we do?"

Yi Xingchen hugged her and reached out to pat her back gently, saying softly: "One thing is not two hexagrams. We have already calculated this matter, and it is a small mistake in Leishan. We can only find the answer from this hexagram, and we cannot start a different hexagram. If we call another hexagram, it will not work."

Tang Xiaoqing whimpered, "Then you should think about it from this hexagram quickly and think about whether there is any other way? I don't want to die yet, I still have a lot of delicious food that I haven't eaten."

Yi Xingchen couldn't help but burst into laughter. He was still thinking about eating at the moment, and he was really a foodie. He reached out to wipe away the tears on her face and said, "Don't worry, didn't I say it? With me here, everything is fine. Give me some time and I think about it."

Tang Xiaoqi nodded and let go of Yi Xingchen. She held his arm and pressed it against his shoulder, feeling that she would feel at ease in this way.

Previously, when the two of them jumped out of the cave, he hugged Yi Xingchen and leaned on his back. At that moment, the diaphragm of skin kinship between them had been broken, so his movement was still very natural. (To be continued)
