Chapter 73 Asking for help
The moment he saw the introduction, Qi Sui's breathing became rapid and heavy.
I'm afraid no one on Canglan Star can resist the temptation of the word "supernatural". It is a supreme existence that stands at the highest point of the species and is comparable to the old gods.
Although Gu Xiyue did not understand the meaning of the white lotus, the instinctive desire and impulse of her body cells kept urging her to take the white lotus for herself.
"Qi Sui, our biggest problem now is how to transport so many resources out."
Gu Xiyue took a deep breath, suppressed the surging desire in her heart, and said softly: "It is definitely unrealistic to rely on only the two of us. The best way is to mark the location here, and then contact the army outside to come and move it."
"I don't care about other resources, but I want to take this white lotus away first!" Qi Sui said.
In his eyes, all the resources in the cave combined are not as important as that white lotus.
"Okay, you discovered this cave, and it's up to you to decide how to deal with Bai Lian." Gu Xiyue looked calm.
Although she wanted it very much, she was not the kind of person who would take it by force.
Not only this white lotus, but also all the resources in the cave, she had no intention of getting a share of it.
"Senior Sister, you have put in a lot of effort along the way. How can I let you go back empty-handed? After we go back, I will take some lotus seeds to send to you." Qi Sui said with a smile.
Although others didn't mention it, it's impossible for him to be completely ignorant of the ways of the world. Moreover, if this white lotus could be grown in the Goddess's Secret Realm, then the lotus seeds would be even less valuable to him.
"Thanks in advance then."
Gu Xiyue did not refuse. She really wanted it, but she was not willing to take advantage of others. She decided to exchange it for other property of equal value.
After simply finalizing the distribution of benefits, Qi Sui leaped in front of the white lotus, then carefully cleared the soil underneath, pulled it up along with its roots, and put it in his backpack.
This action was just to deceive others. In fact, after a pause of seven seconds, he successfully threw the white lotus into the secret realm.
He could deliver items into the secret realm without entering it himself, but he couldn't take items out without entering it himself.
If it weren't for Gu Xiyue being there, and if he wasn't worried about exposing the existence of the secret realm, he would have been able to pack up all the resources in the cave and take them away by himself.
And the moment the white lotus was taken away, the black plants spreading and growing around it grew wildly as if they had lost their oppression. In just a few breaths, they grew to Qi Sui's waist.
“It’s quite magical!”
Qi Sui looked at this scene in surprise.
However, he really disliked these black plants, and even felt that there was a foul odor in the wafting smell.
"This cave is a dead end. After we are done, let's go back the same way and meet up with Wu Qiong and the others." Gu Xiyue suggested.
"it is good!"
Qi Sui nodded, then showed hesitation and said, "Senior Sister, can you step aside for a moment? I want to make a few marks here so that I can bring people over to move them later."
Qi Sui was the one who determined the direction along the way, so after the two of them discussed going out to move the things, Qi Sui had to lead the way.
Gu Xiyue stared at him for a few seconds, then nodded and turned to walk deeper into the dark cave passage: "Okay, I'll wait for you outside!"
Seeing this, Qi Sui actually liked Gu Xiyue's understanding.
After using the "Detection" skill to confirm that the girl was more than a hundred meters away from the cave, he placed one hand on a piece of red ore, and then used his mental power to imagine covering all the resources in the cave.
Seven seconds later, the cave was completely looted.
"Phew—I feel relieved now!"
Qi Sui let out a long sigh.
Of course he should take it away directly if he has the ability. If he asks outsiders to come in and move it, who knows what kind of trouble will arise.
"Are all the markings done?" Gu Xiyue asked while standing in the dark.
"It's done. I'll contact someone to come in and move it later!"
"Well, if you need any help, just tell me." "Thank you!"
Qi Sui smiled and did not continue to dwell on this topic: "Let's go and meet up with Wu Qiong and the others."
boom--
Suddenly, a huge explosion sounded in the cave passage.
The terrifying release of energy caused the entire cave to shake. Even though they were far away, a large amount of soil was still shaken off from above their heads.
"Beep beep!"
The miniature watches worn by the two people rang at the same time.
It’s a distress signal sent by Wu Qiong!
"The explosion just now should be caused by a grenade!"
Gu Xiyue's pretty face was extremely serious, and she said, "Since Wu Qiong was able to take out all the grenades, they must have encountered big trouble."
My goodness, that woman even has grenades!
Qi Sui was secretly shocked.
He was not surprised that the group was in trouble. As early as when they separated, he smelled an unusual smell in the right passage, and Wu Qiong's energy dashboard also confirmed this.
"We have to hurry over and see if there's any chance to help." Gu Xiyue ran faster.
"Senior Sister, let me lead the way!"
Qi Sui rushed to the front.
The smell of gunpowder emitted by the grenade explosion was like a beacon in the dark, clearly pointing the direction of the road.
Ten minutes later, the two had arrived at the place where they had separated before.
There were clear gunshots coming from the right aisle.
Qi Sui and Gu Xiyue looked at each other and rushed in at the same time. Before they had run a few steps far, they saw several embarrassed figures crawling and tumbling to escape not far away.
Behind them, there were dense swarms of various creatures chasing them like a surging tide.
Seeing the two people intact, Wu Qiong's eyes burst into amazing hope for survival, and he hurriedly shouted: "Qi Sui, Gu Xiyue, come and help us, we can't hold on any longer."
Among the five people who went to the right passage, each of them suffered injuries to varying degrees.
Among them, Wang Hongling suffered the most tragically. One of his arms and one of his legs were torn off by some creature, and blood kept gushing out of the wound.
Another woman named Zhang Lingxin was also in a bad condition. Her right arm was torn off at the root. She fell into a semi-comatose state and could only walk with the support of others.
"Wow, that's really tragic!"
Qi Sui took out an alloy sword from his backpack, strode over, chopped off several reptiles that pounced on him, and gained some experience points.
Gu Xiyue also took Zhang Lingxin from Lei Hang and took her to quickly escape from the cave.
"Qi Sui, don't fight any longer. There is a very scary big guy inside. If we are caught up by it, we will all die!" Wu Qiong turned around and shouted.
Upon hearing this, Qi Sui had to give up the idea of using these monsters to gain experience. He held his sword in hand and protected several people behind him, and fled together.
With the addition of these two people, the speed of everyone's escape increased significantly, and they soon left the group of mysterious creatures far behind.
Only when the rustling sound could no longer be heard did everyone dare to stop and rest.
