The king's mainland talent plunder

Chapter 170 Footprints
After a full meal of meat, more than half of the deer was left uneaten. Zheng Qing and Jia Luo only chose the hind legs to roast, and they didn't have any fresh-keeping means in hand. If they were left overnight, it would definitely attract flies or other carnivores.

Considering that he would eat it tomorrow, Zheng Qing cut off all four legs of the deer, and then roasted them by the fire, and threw the rest of the body near the river.

After making all the preparations, Zheng Qing and Jia Luo returned to the tent to rest.

When they woke up the next day, they were surprised to find that uneven human footprints were distributed on the bottom three steps of the Proverbs Corridor. These black footprints were the same size, and they could be speculated to be the footprints of the same person.

Zheng Qing immediately raised his vigilance, "There are other people in Thousand Cave City."

Jia Luo's brows were already knit together, and she frowned tightly, staring at the footprints on the steps in silence.

Relying on his own experience, Zheng Qing even guessed: "Looking at the footprints, such a large footprint cannot be a woman's footprint. The ratio of a person's height to a footprint is about 1:7. This footprint looks about About 41 yards, the height is estimated to be about 178 centimeters."

Hearing Zheng Qing's calculation, Jia Luo had never heard of it before. She looked at Zheng Qing with a puzzled face, and her eyes kept showing doubts, "Xiao Ming, why haven't I heard of your calculation?"

"It's okay if I haven't heard of it. Although there will definitely be errors, as long as he is not a bigfoot, the result will be almost the same." Zheng Qing has not verified the accuracy of this method, but he is still willing to believe it.

Hearing Zheng Qing's words, Jia Luo didn't think about it. The important thing now is to find this person, not to think about whether this method is reliable or not.

Jia Luo said, "Let's find this person first."

After listening to Jia Luo's words, Zheng Qing stared at those footprints and fell into deep thought.

Last night they sat on the first step and set up a pile of flames. After the branches were burned clean, they formed a pile of charred black charcoal, but the black charcoal did not cover a large area. Charcoal places come up.

But the other party didn't, it looked like he intentionally created footprints here, and then told Zheng Qing and Jia Luo that he was in Thousand Caves City.

Although he didn't know the origin of the other party, nor did he know the good and evil of the other party, but at least so far that person was in the dark, and he was not afraid of the two of them.

At this moment, the other party might be spying on them in some hidden place.

Deliberately leaving footprints to tell Zheng Qing and Jia Luo that he was here. Zheng Qing didn't know the purpose of this behavior, but finding such a person is probably not an easy task. The other party must have made sufficient preparations.

The above are all Zheng Qing's conjectures, but they are by no means unreasonable. Faced with this situation, it is better to think of the worst.

Zheng Qing shook his head and said, "No, let's go find the heavenly book near the sculpture, and leave him alone."

"Don't care about him?" Jia Luo didn't understand what Zheng Qing meant.

Is it really safe to let an unknown person stay nearby and watch you?

Zheng Qing said: "Don't worry, we are all high-level heroes, what else in the world can threaten us?"

The level of strength that has been neglected by him made Jia Luo settle down.Indeed, as Zheng Qing said, with her full rank and Zheng Qing's full attribute bonus, there is almost nothing that can threaten them in the King's Continent.Jia Luo nodded and said, "That's true."

Jia Luo followed Zheng Qing, and after washing together, he took out the cooked venison leg that was roasted last night, and after a brief reheating, it was breakfast for the day.

After breakfast, the two started worrying again.

There is a way to walk under the Proverbs Cloister. Under the edge of the Proverbs Cloister, there is a small platform that can accommodate one person to walk. The original intention of the design is to facilitate the comprehensive cleaning of the Proverbs Cloister, so they can stand there to inspect the Proverbs Cloister bottom of.

But these two 30-meter-high sculptures are simple sculptures, and there is nothing to climb nearby. What should I do?
"How about...I'll pave a way with bows and arrows." Jia Luo said, "Although it's disrespectful to the builder of Thousand Cave City and the previous city lord, this is the only way."

Zheng Qing asked: "Is this really possible?"

Jia Luo nodded and said, "It's just a sculpture, not a real person, so let's do what we want."

After speaking, Jia Luo bowed and apologized to the two sculptures, then pulled up the longbow, controlled the strength in his hand, and shot arrows at the sculptures.

The arrows were inserted into the sculpture one by one. Zheng Qing stepped forward and pulled it twice. The arrows were inserted very deep, and the arrows themselves were also very strong, fully able to bear the weight of a person.

After paving the way for climbing, Zheng Qing started to climb immediately.

At this time, Jia Luo reminded: "Xiao Ming, be careful."

Zheng Qing smiled: "It's okay, I can't fall to my death at this height."

"But... I will feel bad too."

Zheng Qing smiled and nodded, "Okay."

Under Jia Luo's gaze, Zheng Qing climbed up the huge sculpture three times, five times and two times, and stood on the arrow with both hands and feet.

Zheng Qing checked the piece in front of him, and then moved to the right. If these arrows are ignored, Zheng Qing, who is climbing against the sculpture at the moment, looks somewhat similar to Spiderman.

Holding the arrow, Zheng Qing carefully inspected every detail of the sculpture. Jia Luo kept shooting arrows, paving a path for Zheng Qing to climb on the sculpture.

After more than one or two hours, Zheng Qing finally stood on the palm of the statue of the builder of Thousand Cave City, holding a huge stone book on the palm. Zheng Qing guessed that the prototype of this stone book was the Book of Heaven.

"Could it be that the mechanism is hidden in the stone book?" Zheng Qing asked in his heart.

He stood forward, groping on the stone book with both hands, trying to find signs of some mechanism just like he did in Yuzhi Square.

But after 10 minutes, this stone book still disappointed Zheng Qing.

Nothing at all.

Not even a crack.

It seems that this stone book is carved from a complete boulder, and the appearance of one piece does not look like a place where organs are hidden.

Zheng Qing sighed helplessly, and then searched the sculpture's hands again, but the result was the same, nothing was found.

It took another hour or two, and the entire sculpture had been carefully searched by Zheng Qing. The final result told Jia Luo that it was just an ordinary sculpture.Not to mention the mechanisms, except for the arrows shot by Jia Luo and the cracks shot by the arrows, there are no other cracks on the sculpture, not even a speck of moss.
