Seven Strings in Dreams
Chapter 88 Regaining Life
Monk and his men cleared the road outside in an orderly manner.
As long as there is no large-scale landslide, the problem will not be serious.
That means that you cannot use spiritual power or extraordinary means such as blasting.
Otherwise it will be counterproductive.
If this place collapses again, the difficulty of rescue will increase again.
Maybe people like Meng Xianyu and Amber who have magical weapons can continue to hold on, but Amber's subordinates will be in trouble.
Although these men are of little use, they are still human lives, and Monk will not give up on them easily.
It is not easy to train reliable subordinates.
Monk felt a little nervous, not because he was worried about Meng Xianyu and the others, but because he was worried about the three people who rushed in to rescue him.
Among these three people, only Elder Jiayu can be trusted, the other two are troublesome.
Zhuji seldom participates in actual combat, and he is always the object of everyone's protection. Fortunately, Yufan replaced him this time.
Yufan must have a lot of practical experience. Yufan's best skill is Qinggong. If anything happens, he can escape quickly, but if he meets an extremely powerful opponent, Yufan will not be able to defeat the opponent.
The terrain of the cave is complex, and Yufan has no advantage when he reaches the water prison.
What's most worrying is that Monk still doesn't know.
That is, Yufan has a grudge against Meng Xianyu and Elder Jiayu, which is very unfavorable for everyone to work together.
If Monk knew Yufan’s dissatisfaction, he would definitely go in by himself.
Among the three paths, Yufan's is the simplest.
As long as you are careful and calm, you will be able to distinguish between reality and illusion.
There are few signs of artificial repairs at the three entrances.
The general direction is downward.
The entrance was a bit difficult for Cong Heng. He was tall, but he chose the most difficult passage.
The passage that Congheng took was winding and twisted, and he ended up going back the same way as before.
Cong Heng gradually lost his patience, but he couldn't find a way to back out.
It is the most impatient person who is caught in a dilemma.
Cong Heng made a lot of marks, but it was of no avail. His side was simply a big maze.
Fortunately, we were just lost and there was no other danger.
As for Elder Jiayu’s passage, it is more like a cave than a passage.
Jiayu basically didn't walk much, and started crawling after entering.
Later he found that crawling was too slow and it was faster for him to slide down while lying down.
The downward slope was not steep, but it was winding and it took a long time to stop.
After Jiayu went down, he arrived at a relatively open place.
He felt that there should be water there, like a dry well.
But how could there be a dry well here?
Wells are dug vertically downwards; there is no reason to dig at an angle.
However, Jiayu still found some water stains and dried aquatic plants.
Even if that place was not the bottom of the well, at least there was water there before.
Jiayu did not leave in a hurry, but looked at it carefully.
He found a human skeleton in a secret place.
The human skeleton only shows the upper body, and the scapula is tied with an iron chain.
Jiayu would not suspect that Monk was deliberately hiding something from him.
Jiayu and Monk have been friends for many years, and of course he knows Monk's temper.
Gai Yu was not supposed to know the secrets passed down from generation to generation regarding the high priest.
Sometimes the less you know, the better.
People who have secrets cannot do whatever they want.
Jiayu doesn't care about these.
He also has secrets that he cannot tell.
Jiayu didn’t know who this half skeleton belonged to, but when a person dies, it’s like a light goes out.
Jiayu found a place to bury half of the bones.
There was nothing special around the corpse, just some crooked scratches on the wall.
Jiayu couldn't tell what was written.
He turned around twice but couldn't find a way out.
There are no passages around.
Jiayu suspected that he had chosen the wrong path.
But if he wants to return along the same route, someone from above will need to pull him up with a rope.
It is definitely impossible to transmit sound.
There seems to be a barrier in here.
Jiayu took out a dagger and knocked on the wall bit by bit.
His hard work paid off and he finally discovered that there was nothing behind one of the walls.
But Jiayu cannot easily use spiritual power to attack the stone wall.
He had no choice but to use the dagger to chisel the wall bit by bit.
I don’t know how long it took, but I finally felt there was hope.
Jiayu didn't dare to use spiritual power, but he could try his internal strength.
He used 10% of his internal strength and the dagger penetrated the last layer of the stone wall in one go.
He pulled out the dagger and a stream of water flowed out from the gap.
The water is very clear and exudes an enticing fragrance.
Jiayu dodged immediately.
This water is not right. There is definitely something wrong with this water.
If it were ordinary water, Jiayu wouldn't worry at all.
But this small stream of water seemed harmless, yet it made him feel the great danger.
This is not an illusion.
Jiayu hid in the farthest place, rummaged through his storage bag, and found nothing suitable.
This is how to do!
Jiayu carefully took out a water bag and collected a few drops of water.
The water bag was burned out immediately.
Jiayu threw away the broken water bag.
He took out another exquisite medicine bottle.
Jiayu took out the elixir.
This medicine bottle is also a magical tool. It has a large space inside, which is about ten times the size of an ordinary medicine bottle.
An ordinary porcelain bottle can usually only hold ten pills at most.
From the outside, there is nothing special about his magic weapon.
However, it can hold hundreds of pills and can best preserve the medicinal properties of the pills. There will be no problem if different pills are placed together.
Ever since Jiayu obtained this magical weapon, he basically put all the pills he had with him into it.
If it weren't for the last resort today, he wouldn't be willing to do anything with it.
Jiayu still has a few teleportation talismans on him, which are his last life-saving things.
But before he left, he still wanted to know what the water flowing out of the cracks was.
Why does it make him feel so scared?
He didn't have time to feel sorry for the pills and threw them into the storage bag casually.
There was more and more water, and the gap became bigger and bigger.
The corpse that Jiayu had just buried was submerged in water.
There wasn't much space left around Jiayu.
The water was increasing.
Jiayu began to activate the teleportation spell.
These talismans were all made by Monk and are stained with Monk's blood.
When Monk made the talisman, he used blood sacrifice to enhance the effect of the talisman.
The spell behind the bloodstain has three times the effect of a normal spell.
Monk felt it the moment the spell was activated.
Monk immediately stopped everyone.
Monk: "Everyone stop, put down what you are holding, and step back!"
Everyone quickly dropped what they were holding and retreated behind Monk.
Monk: "Keep retreating, retreat to that woods! No one is allowed to come here without my order!"
Everyone responded and quickly stepped back.
It’s not that they didn’t fight alongside Monk, but they knew that staying would only cause more trouble.
All the subordinates retreated into the woods, and they watched Monk standing there alone from a distance.
Monk could sense the movement of the spell, but he didn't know who was pushing it or what kind of spell it was.
If it was a spell with extremely destructive power, half of the mountain would probably collapse.
If that were the case, Monk would have only one last resort.
A living sacrifice, using one's own lifespan as the price and the blood of one's heart as the medium, to summon those who were buried under the mountain.
It was worth it that Monk sacrificed himself to save so many people.
What's more, Monk may not necessarily die.
If the person Monk summons is already dead, then he can only summon the dead soul.
It doesn't cost that much to summon the souls of the dead, you just need to nurture them afterwards.
But if one wants to summon the soul and body intact, the cost is immeasurable.
The key is that after being summoned, a certain amount of life will be drawn from Monk's body and added to the person who is summoned back.
This move cannot be used easily, it is one of the secret skills of the high priest.
The high priest is revered by thousands of people and has the power of incense. Even if they have to sacrifice themselves for the world, that is their fate and what they should do.
Monk was ready to sacrifice himself.
If there were large-scale casualties, he would sacrifice his own life in exchange for the lives of his people.
He won't die immediately, he will age instantly.
At that time, he would make good arrangements for the next high priest to take over, and then find a valley where no one knew him to spend the rest of his life.
Monk knew that what he was about to do would make Ulan hate him for the rest of his life.
Maybe this is destiny!
After he is gone, his good brothers will help him take care of his wife and daughter.
Monk has no worries and no regrets.
Things were not as bad as Monk thought.
Jiayu only used the teleportation talisman, but there seemed to be something suppressing their spiritual power underground.
Jiayu's spiritual power was suppressed to only about 20%.
It is too difficult for Jiayu to activate the teleportation talisman with his current ability.
He tried his best to speed up the talisman, but it was only half burned after half a day.
He could only stop and move a few stones from the surrounding area and step on them, then he leaned against the stone wall.
Only then did Jiayu understand why the corpse was half a body.
I'm afraid there's no way to escape this corrosive water.
Even the water bag was burned, so what does my flesh and blood matter?
Jiayu stepped on the stone, leaned against the stone wall, and continued to activate the remaining half of the talisman.
As long as he has breath left, he can survive.
He didn't want to stay in this dark cave forever like that unknown skeleton.
He didn't want to be without someone to collect his body.
Jiayu always thought that he was used to life and death, but he didn't expect that at the last moment he realized that he didn't want to die at all.
Even ants try to survive, how can he die so easily!
Even if he becomes disabled, he will leave here.
Jiayu: "Senior, I understand your suffering today! If you are still alive in heaven, please bless Jiayu to break out of the cage and be reborn, considering that Jiayu buried your body! Ah!"
