C3178 Searching(3)
Faang Cheng's words made everyone's eyes light up. It seemed like they could see the hope of finding traces of human life.
"Cave, underground? That's very reliable! I remember that... I think I've seen an old science fiction movie. It said that people would choose to live underground because the weather was turning colder. The temperature underground is suitable for humans to survive."
Yuan Yue immediately said excitedly.
"That's right. It's possible to live in a cave or underground. The environment in a cave might be colder, but the advantage is that it is naturally formed. In the future, it won't need to be repaired, and it can be used. As for living underground, the initial preparation will be very complicated and difficult. I wonder what choice the leader made!"
Faang Cheng continued.
"Then we should focus on finding caves or the entrance to the underground."
Chu Xian said excitedly.
"The main point should be in the cave. If they decide to build an underground city, then the entrance will definitely not be exposed to the snow that is growing thicker and thicker. Instead, they should choose a cave as the entrance to their underground city. In this way, the entrance can be kept open all year round, and they don't need to worry about being buried by the snow. They can also use the cave as a transitional place to let them adapt to two different temperatures and environments."
Li Changting used common sense to say his thoughts.
"Yes, that's reasonable. That is the cave, the key point we are looking for is in the cave."
Fu Ling nodded and looked around excitedly. But after looking for a long time, she helplessly retracted her gaze and looked at everyone.
"Looking at the environment … It doesn't look like there is a cave."
The surroundings were flat and there was only white snow. There was no small hill, where did the cave come from!
"Yes …"
Faang Cheng also felt that there was no mountain in his sight. He also scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Let's look around first, maybe … there is some kind of mystery hidden somewhere!"
Faang Cheng pointed in front.
The others also knew that this was the only way, so they all nodded and followed Faang Cheng.
The world was covered in white snow. No matter how far they walked, everyone felt that they had not walked at all. Without a reference, their concept of distance and time seemed to be blurred.
After walking for a long time, Faang Cheng felt that it would take more than two hours. He stopped and did not plan to go any further. He had agreed with everyone to meet up after four hours. It had been more than two hours, they could use the Spirit Power to return, but it was time to go back.
"Wait a minute!"
Suddenly, Yuan Yue called out to everyone.
Faang Cheng, Li Changting, Chu Xiao and Fu Ling turned their heads to look at Yuan Yue, their eyes filled with doubt.
"I think I smell something."
Yuan Yue closed her eyes and did not say a word. She carefully used her nose to smell it and after a while, she opened her eyes.
"It's sulfur. There is the smell of sulfur here. Although it's very light, it's true."
Yuan Yue said excitedly. They had been walking here for so long, other than the smell of the new snow, they had never smelled anything else.
"Sulfur? Really? Why didn't I smell anything?"
Chu Xiao tried to smell it a few times but he did not smell anything. Instead, he inhaled a breath of cold air and sneezed a few times.
"You guys should not be able to smell it. Even Faang Cheng might not be able to smell it. We have been using sulfur to smelt insects and kill insects for years, so we are very familiar and sensitive to this smell. We can even smell a little bit of it."
As Yuan Yue spoke, she looked in a direction.
"It should be over there."
She pointed forward and said.
"Sulfur … Sulfur, why is there the smell of sulfur here?"
Faang Cheng lowered his head and thought to himself. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly raised his head.
"Hot spring!"
"It's a hot spring!"
At the same time, Yuan Yue also thought of this possibility and shouted out in unison.
"There should be someone in a place with a hot spring. If we find the hot spring, it would be equivalent to finding someone."
Chu Xian also said excitedly.
"Then what do we do now? Time is almost up, should we go back … or continue to walk forward!"
Fu Ling looked ahead and then looked behind her, hesitantly said.
"Let's go back first. We have agreed to go back in four hours, so we have to follow the agreement. Otherwise, they might think that something has happened to us and come out to find us again. We might miss them."
Faang Cheng still insisted on going back first and then said about finding the hot spring.
"Yes, that's right. Then we will remember this location first and use the Spirit Power to mark it. Then we will go back and come back together with everyone …"
Before Chu Xian could finish speaking, Faang Cheng had already turned his head to look in another direction. It seemed that he had confirmed something first, and then he shouted towards that direction.
"Is it Senior Gu King?"
His voice carried a strong Spirit Power, penetrating through the distance and reaching a very far place.
"Is it Faang Cheng? It's us!"
From a place far away, Gu King’s strong and powerful voice could be heard.
"It's really Senior Gu King. They have also found this place."
Fu Ling smiled and said.
"I think so. I can ask about the smell of sulfur, there is no reason that the ancestor can't smell it. I think they also followed the smell of sulfur and chased after us."
Yuan Yue nodded. She felt that this smell of sulfur must be an important clue. If they followed this clue, they would definitely be able to find something important.
"Brother, Senior Gu King, are you guys?"
Just as Faang Cheng was talking to the Gu King and the others, Lee Zhaowen's voice suddenly came from another direction. It seemed that he had heard Faang Cheng and the Gu King shouting at each other through the Spiritual Power, so he joined in.
"Zhaowen, why are you here too?"
Faang Cheng asked loudly.
"I found a problem and need to verify it in time. What about you guys? Did you also find some clues?"
Lee Zhaowen asked loudly.
"Yes, we should all be coming in the same direction. It seems that the clue that we found is pointing to something. It seems that this thing is the important clue that we found what we want!"
Faang Cheng said.
