After an unknown amount of time, everyone finally moved a few stones.

Although not all the stones at the entrance of the cave have been moved away, there is enough space for one person to squeeze in.

Lin Congyun walked to the entrance of the cave and looked inside. It was pitch black and he could not see anything.

Now that the entrance to the cave has been dug, let's send these people back to the space first.

Of course, since he had promised to give them extra meals, he couldn't go back on his word, so he took out the food that he had taken from the imperial kitchen and gave it to Ergou, asking him to distribute it.

Back at the cave entrance, Lin Congyun took out a tinder, lit a torch, and threw it in.

Watching the torch continue to burn on the ground, Lin Congyun walked in carefully and picked up the torch.

Lin Congyun held a torch in one hand and supported the stone wall with the other, and walked slowly inside.

After walking a short distance, the light inside dimmed and the torchlight could only illuminate the small area under her feet.

She walked carefully, afraid that she would fall if she was not careful.

After walking for about an incense stick of time, Lin Congyun finally arrived at a relatively open place.

This place is like a natural cave, surrounded by stone walls and with a large pit in the middle. The pit is filled with black stones that emit a faint light under the light of torches.

“Is this Iron Stone?”

Lin Congyun looked at these stones and felt excited.

She squatted down and touched the stones with her hands. She felt that they were hard and much heavier than ordinary stones.

"Yes, this is Iron Stone."

Lin Congyun was sure that these were what she was looking for.

I don't know, can this cave be brought into the space?

She thought about it and decided to give it a try.

As soon as he thought about it, the cave and the iron rocks disappeared before his eyes.

Lin Congyun was filled with joy and was about to turn around and leave when suddenly, the ground shook violently.

"earthquake?"

Lin Congyun was startled and hurriedly held onto the stone wall, trying to steady himself. However, the vibration became more and more intense, as if the entire mountain was shaking.

"Oh no, this cave might collapse!"

Lin Congyun's heart suddenly tightened and he ran out quickly.

However, the vibration had made the passage in the cave extremely narrow, and she could only move her body with difficulty.

Just then, there was a loud noise, and a huge rock rolled down from above and hit her directly in front of her.

Lin Congyun was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat and quickly dodged to the side.

After the boulder rolled down, the vibration in the cave seemed to become even more violent.

Lin Congyun could only try his best to run towards the cave entrance.

I originally wanted to enter the space to hide, but when I saw the cave entrance was right in front of me, I thought if I came out of the space later, I might be trapped in the cave, so I might as well give it a try.

Lin Congyun's heart was beating wildly in his chest, and every vibration seemed to shake it out of his body.

She used up almost all her strength before she finally squeezed out of the narrow passage and stood outside the cave again.

She looked back and saw that the entire cave had been buried by boulders and soil, and she could no longer see what was inside.

Lin Congyun breathed in the fresh air in big gulps, and the panic in his heart gradually dissipated. Looking back, he saw that the whole mountain was shaking, and rocks kept rolling down the mountain, hitting the ground with a loud noise.

"It was a close call. I was almost buried in it."

Lin Congyun breathed a long sigh of relief, but couldn't help feeling a little scared.

If she hadn't run fast, she would probably have been buried in the cave by now.

Fortunately, Tieshi has been successfully brought into the space, which can be regarded as a major gain of this trip.

When she walked down the mountain, she found that the driver had disappeared. She thought that he must have been scared away by the earthquake.

Lin Congyun shook his head and didn't care too much.

She dusted herself off, turned and walked towards the village not far away.

This village should be Zhao Tianqian’s hometown. Let’s see if there is any ox cart and rent one to go back to Wanping County.

However, when she reached the entrance of the village, she found that the whole village was shrouded in panic.

The villagers ran around in panic, their faces full of fear.

The villagers shouted, "The mountain has collapsed!"

At this time, the villagers who were working in the fields all ran over, their faces full of fear.

A villager pulled the villager who had just been there and asked, "The mountain collapsed? That mountain collapsed?"

"That's the mountain!" said the villager, pointing to a peak not far away.

"That mountain? That's the sacred mountain of our village. How could it collapse?"

"I don't know. I was working at the bottom of the mountain just now, and suddenly I heard a loud noise. I looked up and saw that half of the mountain had collapsed, and the entire mountain was smoking!"

"Oh my God, what's going on?"

The villagers were talking about it, and each of them had a look of fear on their face.

The sacred mountain collapsed, which was undoubtedly a huge blow to them.

When Lin Congyun heard their discussion, he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

How did this mountain become their sacred mountain?

Because of the shock, the villagers did not notice that there was a stranger named Lin Congyun around them, and some people started talking about it.

"For so many years, if it weren't for the blessing of this sacred mountain, our village would have

How can we live in such peace and security? "

"Yes, yes, the sacred mountain must be angry. We must go and worship it quickly and pray for its forgiveness."

"Yes, yes, yes, go quickly..."

The villagers talked about it a lot, and soon some people began to organize themselves and prepare to go to the sacred mountain to worship.

Lin Congyun looked at their backs and couldn't help feeling a little confused.

Sacred mountain?

Is there anything special about this mountain?

Why do these villagers worship it as a sacred mountain?

Lin Congyun shook his head and decided not to bother with these matters.

She turned and walked out of the village, intending to find a ox cart to go to Wanping County.

However, she had not walked far when she suddenly heard the sound of hurried horse hooves.

She looked back and saw a group of people riding tall horses rushing towards this direction quickly.

Lin Congyun's heart tightened and he quickly hid in the bushes nearby, secretly observing these people.

Although these people were wearing ordinary people's clothes, they had murderous expressions on their faces and were obviously not ordinary people.

They soon arrived at the entrance of the village, dismounted and asked the villagers.

Lin Congyun was far away and couldn't hear clearly what they were saying.

However, when the villagers pointed in the direction of the so-called sacred mountain, Lin Congyun subconsciously reacted, could these people be sent by the second prince?

Lin Congyun felt uneasy in her heart. She stared at the horsemen, afraid that they would discover her.

After listening to the villagers' instructions, those people looked solemn, then jumped on their horses and galloped towards the sacred mountain.
