Chapter 472 Water From the Sky River
There is a reason why Qu Jie could leave Li Ming alone on this planet and tell him the secret of the Tianhe Water.
One reason is that Qu Jie truly trusts Li Ming. After all, Li Ming knows Gabi and has a life-long friendship with Gabi. Moreover, after avenging Gabi, Li Ming also saved Ji Xin's life. These can basically gain Qu Jie's trust.
The second reason is that Qu Jie has enough confidence in the equipment on Scorpio.
The barrier seen now is only what Li Ming sees. There may be some hidden barriers that Li Ming has not discovered.
Of course, although Li Ming has some ideas about the Tianhe Water, he has not yet gambled his life for it.
He stared blankly at the mountain in front of him, and finally sighed helplessly, shook his head secretly, and whispered: "I, Li Ming, may not have the life to have such a thing."
"Heh...!"
With a low laugh, showing helplessness and unwillingness, he turned around and looked in the direction of Gabi's cemetery, ready to fly there.
Just as Li Ming was about to leave, he suddenly paused and stopped, frowning slightly, with a look of surprise on his face, and looking back at the mountain.
When Li Ming left the cave, he left Feilong in the stone platform. At first, Feilong did not find anything unusual, but just now, Li Ming still found something strange.
Looking at the entire mountain and the stalactites inside, and then to the groove on the stone platform, the entire process of the formation of Tianhe water is like a funnel, with energy light bodies emitted from the universe and the stars, and then filtered through the pool on the top of the mountain, and then the Tianhe water formed by stalactites dripped into the groove.
The whole process is ingenious and incredible, but the anomaly that Li Ming found was in the stone platform!
When the energy of the groove is full, the Tianhe water that drips again will penetrate into the stone platform through the gap at the edge of the groove, and flow from the inside of the stone platform to deeper underground.
This discovery was made by Feilong from the details inside the stone platform, and this also explains why the water of the Tianhe River will never overflow after the grooves on the stone platform are full, but disappear instead.
In fact, the water of the Tianhe River did not disappear, but each drop of it just reached the gap above the groove after overflowing, and then seeped into the ground again!
This faint detail was discovered by Feilong, and because it was too small, ordinary eyes could not detect it at all. Even Feilong, who had a strong spiritual consciousness, had to work hard to detect it.
After discovering this, Li Ming's expression became serious, and his eyes widened a little.
Feilong went underground along the inside of the stone platform.
The inside of the stone platform was full of gaps, but after years of Tianhe water flowing, these gaps had become smoother. After passing through the stone platform, there was a small gully underground. The overflowing Tianhe water turned into crystals after entering the gully, and rolled along the gully to the distance.
The gully was very small, only the thickness of a finger, but it was relatively smooth, like a small slide. At this time, the crystallized Tianhe water continued to roll along the gully to the depths.
Li Ming's flying dragon did not stop at all, and followed the crystal to fly quickly.
After all, this is a drop of Tianhe water, and Li Ming is naturally clear about its value.
This small gully leads to deeper underground, and it is getting farther and farther, and has left the bottom of the mountain. Li Ming moved and flew in the direction of the underground sensing.
Although the flying dragon can fly with the crystal of Tianhe water underground, it must keep a certain distance from Li Ming, so Li Ming is on the ground and the flying dragon is underground, just moving with the rolling crystal.
Leaving the mountain, entering the deep of the mountain range, a dense vegetation area several kilometers away.
Li Ming was flying, and his body suddenly stopped, his eyes opened wide and wide, his mouth opened, and he shouted directly: "Fuck?!"
His whole facial expression was completely stiff, and his dull eyes could not help but look at the bottom of his feet. He saw that the ground under Li Ming's feet was nothing unusual except for rocks of different sizes and a pile of plants that he couldn't name.
But deep underground, Feilong had passed through the tiny gully and reached the end, a cave more than ten meters long and wide, and in the middle of the cave, there was a small pool, but the water in this pool was not ordinary water, but the water of the Heavenly River!
So much Heavenly River water, that is not comparable to the small groove in the cave. Simply put, the groove is like a bowl of water, and this cave is like a lake. Not to mention that bowl, it would take a long time to fill it with a large oil barrel.
In such a situation, how could Li Ming not be surprised and stunned.
That kind of excitement, as if the cells of the whole body were beating, made Li Ming in an excited state.
"This... is simply a treasure!"
Li Ming whispered excitedly.
"No, I have to confirm it again!"
Li Ming even suspected that what Feilong sensed was not true. After talking to himself, he asked Feilong to explore again.
After the underground dragon flew for a while, it directly entered the pool. At this moment, it could really sense the energy in it, and Li Ming could also be sure that this was the water of the Tianhe River, there was no mistake!
Li Ming looked around excitedly, and his body quickly landed on the ground.
This area was flat, but it was surrounded by high mountains, which was equivalent to the middle area of each mountain in the mountain range.
There were rock fragments under his feet, and there were some black plants around from time to time. Li Ming looked at the environment in front of him in a daze. At this moment, Li Ming was able to calm down. If he wanted to get the Tianhe water underground, Li Ming had to enter the underground cave first.
Through Feilong's exploration of the cave, Li Ming basically mastered the environment of this cave.
The cave is not a completely closed space. There are sometimes some tiny holes on the cave wall. These holes are of different sizes. It is dark inside. No one knows how they are formed, and no one knows where they lead to.
The largest one is one foot long and wide, and the small ones are like ant holes, and there are many of them.
These caves are naturally impossible for Li Ming to enter, so he didn't care, but after looking at the surrounding environment, Li Ming showed hesitation.
At this time, the water of Tianhe is directly below the foot, but it is naturally not appropriate to dig a hole vertically like this, and it is not easy for Li Ming to dig rocks and dig holes in the mountain.
Thinking in his mind, Li Ming's figure is pulled up little by little, and he completely looks at the nearby terrain. There is a small mountain in front of Li Ming's position.
This mountain is located next to a big mountain. The mountain is connected to the mountain, but the mountain top is isolated, just relatively short. This small mountain is also the closest place to Li Ming. Looking at it with his eyes, his body has slowly floated over.
After arriving at the top of the mountain, Li Ming narrowed his eyes and scanned the situation of the mountain with his wisdom eyes. After confirming that there was no abnormality, Li Ming's figure slowly fell down.
There are no barriers at the bottom of the mountain and nearby, which is relatively hidden and safe, and closer to the target location. This is why Li Ming chose this place.
The location of the place has been confirmed, and the next step is how to dig.
Li Ming flew slowly around the mountain, only a few meters away from the mountain. He looked at it casually and thought about it. Before he could think of a solution, his eyes suddenly lit up.
There is a cave on the hillside of this mountain. This cave is relatively rough, as if it was forcibly dug by something. The cave is about two meters high and wide, not big, but enough for one person.
Looking at this cave with both eyes, consciousness has spread into it. The cave in front of him is winding and very deep. Li Ming's consciousness can't reach the bottom at once and can't explore the end.
Although this cave extends underground and has nothing to do with the location of Tianhe Water, digging from this cave will definitely be more hidden and save effort.
Thinking of this, Li Ming smiled slightly, and flew in.
After landing on the ground, Li Ming came to the cave. The cave wall was more than two meters high, and it felt like his head might be hit at any time. It was pitch black inside, without any light. Li Ming could only rely on his consciousness to move forward and lock his position.
He kept walking along the dark cave until he came to the deep underground of this small hill. Everything was within Li Ming's perception. After reaching a certain depth, Li Ming stopped and began to look around to determine the direction of the Tianhe water.
This cave is like a human intestine, winding back and forth and reaching deep inside. Li Ming's position is already very deep, although this is not the end of the cave.
