In fact, with Chu Yang's methods, it was not difficult to discover this hidden passage.

As long as he opens his spiritual consciousness, there will be no secrets in any terrain in his eyes.

But he had been using his spiritual consciousness to clear the way while marching, and he was already very sleepy mentally.

When exploring this cave, my sharp eyes were enough to see clearly what was going on in the cave, so there was no need to use my spiritual consciousness to push from the entrance to the bottom of the cave, which also delayed some time.

Fortunately, although it took some time, he finally discovered the hidden crack.

He cheered up and immediately went sideways into the crack.

After walking a few dozen meters into the crack, the crack gradually became wider.

After walking another hundred meters, the crack turned into a spacious passage.

Chu Yang soon found footprints on the ground again, which proved that he had found the right path.

The sound coming from the fork in the road was also very clear. It was the sound of running water.

Is there an underground river in the crack?

Chu Yang was a little stunned.

He was still wondering why the mysterious man who entered the cave before found such a secret fork in the road.

Now it seems that the sound of water must have attracted his attention.

If you pass by slowly or take a rest nearby, it is easy to find the faint sound of water coming from the silent cave.

Water is a good thing and a necessary consumable for human beings.

In order to avoid the herd of animals, the intelligence team only successfully approached the water source once in the past few days. The drinking water was not enough, and it was in urgent need of replenishment.

Chu Yang followed the passage and finally discovered the underground river a few miles away.

The size of the underground river is actually like a small stream, and the water is not fast.

However, because there happened to be a large height difference in the river ahead, a small waterfall was formed.

The movement produced by the waterfall is a bit loud, and the sound can be transmitted far along the narrow cracks. This is why Chu Yang can detect the sound of water.

Deep in the complicated underground cave, Chu Yang could no longer tell the direction clearly, nor did he know the direction of the underground river.

He hesitated for a moment by the underground river, which way should he go?

The upper reaches of the underground river? Or downstream?

There are obviously two directions in front of us that we can continue to move forward, and we can even wade directly from the river.

After pondering for a long time, Chu Yang decided to return to the cave entrance to discuss with Gu Qi and others.

So more than half an hour later, Chu Yang came to the cave entrance again.

"Underground river?"

Gucci and others were a little surprised, now they can replenish their water bladders.

Although it takes a lot of time to go deep underground, it is a necessary task after all.

Gu Qi ordered a dozen witch-blood warriors and asked them to bring water bags and prepare to go to the bottom of the cave to get water.

Su Hai suddenly thought of something and stopped everyone again: "Have you ever thought about where this underground river leads to?"

Gucci was also stunned: "Where do you think this underground river should lead?"

"There are two larger water sources nearby, one is the Black Dragon Pond in the north, and the other is the Bird's Mouth Spring in the south..."

Su Hai pondered for a while: "Could the source of this underground river be the Black Dragon Pool? And the direction it goes to should be the Bird's Beak Spring, right?"

"possible……"

Gu Qi tilted his head and recalled the situation of Black Dragon Pond and Bird's Mouth Spring, and then said: "What's the use of knowing its source and destination? Can we still walk from this underground river to Bird's Mouth Spring? "

"Why not? I think the water in Bird's Mouth Spring comes from this underground river. Otherwise, how could there be so much mountain spring water, and it eventually flows all the way to Green Lake Village..."

"Even if this underground river leads to the Bird's Mouth Spring, it doesn't make sense to us. The spring on the Bird's Mouth Spring is not big. It's impossible for people to get out of the spring like the water, right?"

"The spring is not big, but we can dig it bigger. When I was a ghost cultivator, wasn't it very simple to dig a hole in the mountain?"

Su Hai glanced at Chu Yang, and a strange smile appeared on his face: "Brother Chu's hammer is so powerful, it shouldn't be a problem to cut mountains and rocks, right?"

"Well..."

Gu Qi hesitated for a moment: "Just widening a short passage in the rock should not be a problem, but... will this underground river pass smoothly all the way? What if it encounters a narrow crack on the way? We can’t let Brother Chu dig all the way, right?”

Su Haidao: "We can explore the road first. What if this road is really passable? Wouldn't it save us a lot of time and make our march much safer?"

Gu Qi hesitated for a moment: "I am afraid that such an exploration will have to go a long way and delay many days. If this road is blocked, it will also delay our schedule."

Su Hai sighed: "Our trip has already been delayed. The beast tide is so huge. We travel day and night, and the daily travel time is only four hours. If we go all the way like this, even if it goes smoothly, we will arrive at Lujiao Village. I don’t even know how many days have passed…”

"I think we can take a gamble. Maybe this underground river can actually lead directly to the Bird's Mouth Spring."

The other scouts and team leaders also started talking.

"With this kind of marching speed, we will definitely be unable to catch up. It's okay to try walking down the underground river."

"If the underground river is passable, our marching speed will definitely be many times faster than hiding during the day and traveling at night, crossing mountains and ridges, and we don't have to avoid beasts, find water sources, and take detours everywhere..."

"That's right, but the straight-line distance from here to the Bird's Mouth Spring is more than 100 miles. Even if the terrain is flat and there is no need to take detours, it will probably take a day or two. If the route is a little tortuous... We also have to prepare enough food and torches."

"This is easy. Let's gather the torches and food first, let a small team go to explore the way first, and the others stay Here, prepare the food and torches. "

"No need to be so troublesome."

Chu Yang also spoke: "If it's just pure exploration, I can do it alone, and I don't need to prepare anything. We can set off now."

Su Hai quickly replied: "I will go with you. If there are any forks on the road or uncertain routes, I should be more familiar with them than you."

"I will go with you. If the exit of the underground river is really at the Bird's Mouth Spring, I am more familiar with the situation there."

A witch blood warrior named Pita also stepped forward.

Chu Yang thought for a while and immediately nodded and said: "Okay, then you can follow me, and the others will rest here for a few days. "
