She had a feeling that the driver didn't push them into this abyss for their money, but to feed the monsters inside the ice pot. After Tang Zhenghe, Tang Zhengyu, and the girl were rescued, Chu Hao started to observe the walls around the ice lake.2
He saw that not only was it not covered with moss, but instead, there were some black smudges on it. It seemed to be left behind by some kind of monster that shed its skin and left it on the wall.
Chu Hao found a key in the middle of the lake. The key was floating above the water with a chain below it. However, this ice lake was a thousand feet deep and even Chu Hao didn't dare to jump in.
After the four of them sat around the fire and warmed up, they began to look for a way to escape.
However, as time passed, weird sounds came out from the bottom of the lake like the laughter of some people. The sounds came to their ears again and again in an attempt to break the defense line in their hearts, but Chu Hao immediately covered his ears after hearing it. At the same time, he signaled to the three of them.
Their backpacks had been stolen by the driver. Under such circumstances, there was no way for them to escape, much less get fed.
"We have to move. We can't just sit there and wait for death. Otherwise, as time passes, we will just become a corpse. The reason why we came here will disappear."
As soon as Chu Hao said this, Tang Zhengyu immediately jumped up. He looked at Chu Hao and asked, "Have you observed this strange terrain before?"
Chu Hao then shook his head and looked at Tang Zheng Yu and asked: "Could it be that you found something else?" "If you look closely, you will see that the hole above your head is connected to the key in the middle of the lake, especially when the light is shining in. The key is very obvious, as if indicating that we should go and get the key, but if there is a chain underneath, then it would mean that they are trying to hide something!"
"For example, the way we escaped." Tang Zhenghe added on at the side. If one was calm enough and was smart enough, he might be able to notice that something was wrong. However, if a normal person fell into the ice lake, how could they maintain their calm enough?
The person who designed this lake had used this day to create such an ingenious trap to trap all those who had fallen into the lake one after another!
Tang Zhengyu looked at Tang Zheng and suddenly laughed, "I didn't think that your brain would move so fast!"
"Other than this, there is another doubt. This lakeside and this canyon can't be made from nature. Even if it's a beep, it can't be hidden in the most crucial place."
"Where?" He took off his shirt and suddenly swam to the center of the lake, only to see him pulling the key, shaking it towards the three people on the shore, and then releasing it. In the next second, the key was pulled up like a string, and stood up straight.
This is the most crucial part. According to common sense, even if this key was made of a unique metal, it would still be impossible for it to have such a strange shape in this sort of natural Gorge. Furthermore, the surrounding walls were all artificially constructed.
He put his hand on the wall and revealed a smile that said, "If I were the designer, since I wanted to hide the exit of this ice pot, then I would do something very reasonable to confuse everyone's eyes. In the place where it is the least likely for it to be the exit, it is more likely that he would be the exit." After Tang Zhenghe finished speaking, he suddenly kicked on an extremely wet wall and Chu Hao quickly ran over to help.
With Chu Hao's immense strength, the wall was soon kicked down by him, but in reality, although the skin on the wall fell off, the things that came out were still hard stones. Seeing this, Chu Hao still didn't give up and continued to kick the stones off as the soil became more and more wet.
Chu Hao also felt that the exit was about to appear, but before they could react, a huge current was gushing out from the entrance.
Seeing this, Tang Zhenghe and Chu Hao immediately pulled that woman to swim to the center of the lake. The four people held onto the iron chain, but who said that the chain kept rushing out?
Although the key was not the key to escape, it was still an essential element to escape. This was because the designer had chosen to use it to hide from others, which meant that if they were discovered, they would be destined to help them escape.
The box was moved out for them. The surrounding scene was still the same mountain peak where they were taken by the driver. Their backpacks were also piled on the side, as Tang Zhenghe expected.
The four quickly cleaned up before opening the box with the key. There was not a single trace of rust on the heavy iron chains, but the scouring of time had left an uneven mark on its body.
Tang Zhenghe quickly opened the box and found another small box. However, they found the key to that small box at the bottom of the big box.
The waterproofing system of this box was well-designed. Until now, there were no traces of water entering the water. The other jade pendant in the small box was completely different from the one Tang Zhenghe had obtained.
However, there was a letter underneath the jade pendant. Tang Zhenghe quickly took a look and saw that it was written by his cousin. As for the words on it, he was 100% sure that it was his cousin.
However, the trustworthy content caused the three of them 'faces to change. It recorded the history of Tang Zhenghe's development of the formula for immortality from the moment he discovered the existence of Witch Clan to the moment he developed the formula for immortality. Moreover, with just a glance at the formula, Chu Hao had mentally excluded it because this formula was not feasible at all, but the line at the bottom of the letter caught their attention.
"Sacred Maiden of the Witch Clan needs this kind of immortal formula. He wants to be an elder, not a Holy Maiden who is being restricted by others. I have to escape this damn place as soon as possible, if not I would be captured by him and studied into this method to live forever!"
