Don't pretend, anchor, I've seen you touch the golden talisman!

"Old Wang! Third child! Lulu? Uncle Feng?"

Lin Yi took a few steps back, looking for the whereabouts of the others, but found nothing.

Among the surrounding mica crystals from top to bottom, the figures of the other four people were looming, and some were very close at hand, as if they were only separated from him by a layer of glass. When he pressed his hand up, he found that they were just not there. It's just a silhouette that I know where it came from.

He tried hard to recall the situation when he came in just now.

Behind them were Wang Qiang, Qian Sheng, Bai Lu and Lao Feng walking at the back.

After the few of them experienced the flash of light entering the cave, they have been traveling along the long and narrow passage in the mine.

From the beginning to now, I walked for about ten minutes and came to a conclusion:

These mines are connected to each other.

If you want to know where they got separated from, you can only go back first and look for any forks.

Lin Yi took out the carbon rod and made a "sugar four corners" mark on the ground.

At this moment, his actions were also seen by others.

"Old Lin, Old Lin!"

Wang Qiang slapped the mica wall, trying to attract Lin Yi's attention. In the end, he found that it was all in vain. He immediately changed his mind and began to move towards the surrounding mica walls, dancing and jumping up and down. He took out anything that could attract attention from his backpack, Waving around, his hands kept making "sign language" that they could understand.

It's a pity that they don't have access to modern lighting equipment now, so they can only use candles and fire sticks to illuminate.

Under such conditions, the brightness was already limited, and coupled with the reflection from the surrounding mica, his figure was even more blurry.

This approach doesn't work either.

Lin Yi left a mark and started walking back along the way he came.

In his impression, there was indeed only one main road connecting large and small mines. When he walked back, he realized that this was not the case at all.

The few people following him were all staring at each other at the figure of the person in front. They thought they had been following the right person. In fact, what they were following was just the shadow cast by the mica.

By the time they realize the problem, they have already fallen behind.

Those difficult-to-detect forks in the road caught people off guard. Judging from the current situation, it meant that the few of them might have dispersed to other mines.

How far away it is is unclear.

However, with Wang Qiang's loud voice, he has not heard his shouts so far. It seems that it is impossible to establish contact through sound.

Standing at the fork in the road, Lin Yi stopped and began to think about the surrounding mica walls.

This kind of maze is the most difficult to navigate. You can't find any reference objects. The light and reflected images are always interfering with your judgment.

The only way to escape quickly now is to smash open the outer wall of the mica mine and create a direct way to the outside.

This simple and crude method is the most efficient method at the moment.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi pulled out his sword and approached the mica wall.

The texture of mica is very brittle, like a wafer, so cutting it with a knife is overkill.

But as soon as the tip of his knife penetrated the mica layer, he realized something was wrong.

There seems to be a kind of liquid in this mica interlayer. After being squeezed, it will move around, and after the tip of the knife leaves, it flows back.

At this time, he suddenly realized that mica itself did not seem to have that strong reflective ability. After all, it was an almost transparent mineral like crystal.

At first, he thought it was because there were too many mica in the mica mine and they overlapped, which enhanced its reflective ability. Now it seems that the liquid in the middle of the mica sheets played a role.

What will it be?

Lin Yi stopped, retracted the sword, took out the needle bag from his bag, pulled out a silver needle, concentrated his strength on his fingers, and twisted the silver needle into the mica layer bit by bit. The silver needle pierced the mica and came into contact with the liquid inside, and the needle tip instantly turned black.

poisonous!

Judging from the speed at which the silver needle changes color, it is still highly poisonous.

Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately took out a mask and put it on his face, and then took out his goggles and put them on.

Then the silver needle was taken out of the hole bit by bit, and at the same time, the hole was blocked and smoothed with the yellow mud under his feet.

Hold the silver needle in front of your eyes and examine it carefully.

It doesn't matter if you don't read it, you can't help but take a breath after reading it.

What came out of the needle tip was actually mercury!

No wonder when they first entered the mica mine, the light reflected back from the strong flashlight was enough to blind them.

There is mercury sandwiched in these mica layers, which are condenser mirrors.

Why is there mercury in the gaps between mica sheets?

At the same time, Bai Lu and Lao Feng were also looking for a way out.

Lao Feng was so frightened by the mechanism box that he almost lost his life. Bai Lu helped him enter the mine all the way.

After realizing that they were lost, the two began to study this strange mica layer.

"To be honest, girl, I have traveled all over the world for so many years, and I have always walked on the ground. This is the first time I have gone underground. I didn't expect that the underground is more dangerous than the top."

Bai Lu held the candle and stretched out her hand to touch the stone wall, not missing any clues. She also kept chatting with Old Feng, for fear of getting lost again.

"You are an old-timer, you are well-informed, and you have been in the world for so long. What storms and waves have you not seen?"

"Don't compliment me. I'm telling the truth. I won't even mention the things I've experienced before. Just like this maze hole. If I didn't follow you in, even if you told me there were gold bricks buried here, I wouldn't. Step into this place."

"That's because you live a clear life. Money can only be earned if you have the life to spend it.

If you have life to earn but no life to spend, it is just paper. "

As Bai Lu said this, she didn't stop at all. She took out a gold needle and scratched it in along the gaps between the mica.

At the same time, she also discovered the liquid in the middle of the mica pieces.

Bai Lu frowned and pulled out the golden needle from the gap. There was a small silver bead hanging on the tip of the needle.

"Girl, don't move, I'll take a look."

Old Feng stepped forward, took the golden needle, and dripped the liquid on it onto the ring he wore on his left hand.

This gold ring is Lao Feng’s treasure.

The ring is hollow, and the ring close to the finger is sandwiched between the ring outside.

There is a kind of powder hidden in the interlayer. As long as the ring is twisted, the powder can be poured into the wine cup without anyone noticing. As for the effect of this powder, it depends on the willingness of the wearer.

There is a five-petal plum blossom-shaped decoration on the outer layer of the ring. A sharp thorn can pop out from the flower core and pierce the artery. It is difficult for gods to find it.

The plum blossom petals are made of filigree sterling silver. Each of the five petals has its own function, one of which is for testing poison.

I don’t know if I have any intention of harming others.

He must be wary of others.

Lao Feng carefully dropped the liquid on the plum blossom petals, and the whole plum blossom changed color instantly. (End of chapter)
