Handbook of Survival in the World of Cultivating Immortals

Chapter 163 52: ​​So be it
Change comes from all directions.

What touched Lu Liang most directly was that the patrols in charge of young people in the settlements were constantly changing their routes and shrinking in scope. All these changes happened too fast and too frequently.

Although most people are aware of the problem, under the system of the Yuanning settlement, they are not allowed to make any speeches—orders and instructions from high-level officials are the only criterion for action.

Tang Zhan also communicated with Lu Liang about this, but they had no way to change the status quo.When you can't change, you can only accept it, and then wait and see.

Walking on this familiar yet unfamiliar road with Tang Zhan at his side, Lu Liang didn't worry about anything.The destination I am going to this time is the "bedroom", which is the place where I woke up from my dream. After three years, when I walked in again, I was already in a different mood.

Recalling her own experience, Lu Liang once again lamented how quickly time passed, and she couldn't help but tighten the handle of the lamp in her hand.

The darkness without light, the indescribable mixed smell... It's a bad enough experience no matter how you think about it.

But when he thought about the sachet that was now in his Qiankun bag, Lu Liang was eager to find some clues to prove his conjecture.

I have not had the opportunity to come to the "bedroom" again for three years. One is because I don't know the way at all, and the patrols follow Tang Zhan; prohibited by the rules.

This time, Lu Liang had the opportunity to follow because the Great Elder directly assigned Tang Zhan the task of collecting "Liuhuo".

Tang Zhan stopped in front of a wall, and Lu Liang also stopped, looking around in the dim light, this is a dead end in the maze.He hadn't noticed it when he left the "bedroom" before, but three years later, Lu Liang figured out one thing—the maze is really a huge maze with an extremely complicated internal structure.

Lu Liang just watched Tang Zhan stretch out his hand to grope on the wall, and then pressed down on certain depressions in a certain order. When Tang Zhan raised his slender fingers again, the wall began to tremble slightly at the same time. , There was a gap in the middle, and then the gap became bigger and bigger, and the wall was separated from the middle to the two sides by two thick stone blocks with smooth cross-sections. The door has been opened, and the two people saw darkness.

At this time, the pine nut curled up on Tang Zhan's shoulder and sleeping with his tail in his arms suddenly smacked his mouth a few times in a low voice, as if talking in sleep, Lu Liang's eyes were involuntarily attracted by it.

Probably the reason why he came to the "bedroom" again after so long was finally no longer alone. Before the stone door was closed, Tang Zhan first broke the silence, shook the lantern in his hand to Lu Liang, and said in a relaxed tone: "Okay, now we can go down."

"Ah."

There must be a lantern to provide light before going to the "bedroom", so both of them carried a lantern in their hands.Ever since Lu Liang learned and mastered the trick of using "flowing fire" to light a lamp, she and Tang Zhan played a game of competing who could light the lamp faster.

Just like before, Lu Liang and Tang Zhan gripped the lantern's pole at the same time.The two silently counted three times in their hearts at the same time, and then simultaneously raised the other free hand to pinch the formula, and the "flowing fire" floating in the air gathered in their respective lanterns, and the light was lit up almost at the same time.

That was a time difference that was almost indistinguishable to the naked eye. Tang Zhan left Lu Liang far behind at the beginning, but now the speed of lighting the lamps between the two is almost the same.After seeing this result, the two looked at each other and smiled, then walked down the stairs side by side.
