Chapter 1265: The Use of Crystals
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When the black light soared into the sky, everyone’s hearts tightened. Even Xiaoxiao was extremely worried when she saw it. Even though she knew that nothing would happen to the two children, they were still her own flesh and blood.
“What’s going on?”
“They’ve been attacked. It all depends on whether Little Treasure is smart or not.”
Yan Kuan was not worried at all. However, it was better to shout at the person who had the intention to set up this formation back then. It was impossible to do something like this without some ability.
Yan Kuan’s words made Shen Xiaoxiao more and more worried. At this moment, everyone’s eyes were looking at the cave entrance from before. However, at this moment, Yan Kuan said to Jiang He, “Take them all down and seal off all the mountain paths immediately.”
Jiang He naturally knew Yan Kuan’s identity. When he heard the Black Emperor’s orders, he immediately nodded and said, “Yes, I almost forgot. This black gas is being released. Everyone, go down the mountain immediately. Colonel, immediately notify the base to retreat ten miles.”
When the Colonel heard this, he forgot that these words were actually said by that Assistant Zhou. Instead, he was sighing over why it was so powerful. Was the impact of this black gas so great? They actually had to retreat 10 meters. However, it was not normal for such a huge gust of gas to appear out of nowhere. If there was anything that could be justified, what would happen to the pair of young people who had just entered?
“Master Jiang He, what about the pair of young people who went in? How about this? You guys go down first. I’ll go look for them.”
He did not expect that this Colonel was actually not bad. He actually thought of others in such a dangerous situation.
“There’s no need for that, Colonel. They should come out immediately. We’ll wait here. You guys should hurry down and take a look.”
Hearing this, everyone fell silent. Those who could go down alone were definitely not ordinary people, so they really didn’t need to worry too much.
However, the Colonel still walked over and said to Shen Xiaoxiao, “Assistant Fang, why don’t you come down with me? It’s too dangerous here.”
“It’s alright. My body is fine. You should bring your soldiers and the others down first.”
A few soldiers were still waiting by the side. While not far away, there were three other professors waiting on the spot. This was not the time to put on a brave front. Moreover, he could tell that this side’s physical fitness was not weak. In fact, it was even better than the others. He really did not need to worry.
Thinking of this, Lin Qiang nodded at Shen Xiaoxiao, then brought the obviously unwilling Ye Xie down the mountain.
At this time, Ye Xie absolutely did not dare to say that he would stay. He simply did not have the ability. Even if he was powerful, the temperature here was really bone-piercing. It was not something that ordinary people could endure.
On the other hand, the two assistants looked ordinary, but they were willing to stay. This was strange.
Jiang He seemed to have been prepared, but his explanation was to Lin Qiang. After all, Lin Qiang was the highest official here.
“They have magical artifacts and warm jade on them. They can withstand it. Don’t worry.”
No wonder. So they had magical artifacts.
They walked down the mountain one after another. At this time, Da Bao and Little Treasure, who were in the cave, were as shocked as the people outside when they saw the black gas soaring into the sky.
“D*mn it, if I find out who did this, I will skin him alive.”
Little Treasure was absolutely furious at this moment. He had been hunting geese all day, yet he had been pecked by geese. He did not know who made this thing, and thought it was Seven Star Stakes. However, just as he found the last stake… A flaw appeared on the side. He subconsciously used a talisman to strike, and the other two stakes appeared. Moreover, they were the kind of stakes that could be removed with a light touch. This way… The black gas under the two stakes naturally began to leak out.
This was a chain of events. His calculations were really good. Previously, he had thought of choosing a time to seal this place, but now it seemed that he had to get rid of this place.
“It seems that the person who set up this formation back then had calculated that the later generations definitely wouldn’t have the ability to deal with this sudden black gas. This is because as long as one of the holes is opened, then there will be a second, a third, it will open automatically, then a fourth, a fifth… until the ninth one is opened, then all the formations will be opened. At that time, not to mention a radius of a hundred miles, the entire city, and even the entire provincial capital, there might even be more slowly affected.”
“Ah? So perverted? They’re too scheming. Seriously, what should we do now? Should we just wait for it to emit black gas?”
“Of course not. We need to find something to temporarily seal this place. Then, we’ll go back and prepare. We have to pull out the remaining seven stakes within three days.”
“Then what do we need to seal this place? Do you have it with you?”
Da Bao looked at Little Treasure. Little Treasure lowered his head and thought for a moment. Then, he looked at Xiao Xue. Xiao Xue was frightened by Little Treasure’s gaze. Then, she said directly, “Little Treasure, what are you doing?”
Little Treasure was originally frowning. At this moment, he suddenly smiled and said to Da Bao, “I have an idea.”
“Da Bao, take out the white crystal from your storage bag.”
There was a white crystal in Da Bao’s storage bag that Shen Xiaoxiao had given them for protection. If they didn’t use it now, it would really be a waste.
Da Bao had always trusted Little Treasure unconditionally, so when he said he wanted to use the crystal, she naturally took it out and handed it to Little Treasure
Little Treasure took out his own crystal and placed it in his palm. This time, there were two crystals. Little Treasure held the two crystals and muttered to himself before throwing them toward the two holes.
What Da Bao didn’t expect was that once the two crystals were shot out, the black gas from the hole instantly cut off the source. Not only did the two white lights instantly block the two holes, but the surroundings were also illuminated brightly.
“It’s effective as expected. However, there are still seven holes. Moreover, it won’t work just by blocking the holes. We still have to think of a way to truly eliminate the holes.”
“But we can’t all use these crystals, right? So we have to think of a way. Besides, when Mom gave us these two crystals, Dad didn’t even know.”
“Don’t worry about it. Let’s go up first and think of a way. Have you recorded everything?”
“Don’t worry, I know what you mean. I’ve recorded everything before, but of course I haven’t recorded anything after that. I’m not stupid.”
“Okay, that’s good. Let’s go up.”
..
“You gave them crystals?”
Sure enough, Yan Kuan began to interrogate Shen Xiaoxiao. Shen Xiaoxiao smiled embarrassedly and said to Yan Kuan, “Wasn’t I afraid that they would be in some kind of danger? Moreover, it’s two white crystals, the lowest grade. It’s nothing, right?”
“You, Xiaoxiao. I told you, these things can’t appear outside. Fortunately, it’s used at this time. No one knows. Once people find out, what will you do? Moreover, since this formation can be set up, there must be a solution. Although many years have passed, this time it has been seen by Little Treasure. Perhaps this is a test for him. Therefore, you and I can not interfere rashly.”
How could Shen Xiaoxiao not know what Yan Kuan meant? However, because she knew, she was even more anxious. Since this was the case, the crystal had already been given. What should she do?
“But the crystal has already been used.”
“I know it has been used. I’m warning you. You must not do it again, understand?”
“I understand, I understand.”
Yan Kuan would naturally not be willing to attack Shen Xiaoxiao. However, did Little Treasure think that he could seal the entrance of the cave like that? Of course not. He was burying future trouble for himself. It seemed that Little Treasure was still too inexperienced.
“Let’s go. We need to step back. They’re coming out. We can’t let them find out who we are.”
“Oh, okay. Let’s go!”
