章節 918: Climbing

In knee-deep snow, Shangguan Hong raised his head and looked at the entrance of the dark cave, waves of horror flooding through him. "I think that this is it. Maybe it has frozen over."

A couple of years ago, Shangguan Hong accidentally learned a secret from Madam Meng. There was a secret passage from the stone castle that connected vertically to a river at the bottom of the cliff. It served the purpose of providing access to water in an emergency.

During the past two days, Shangguan Hong had searched more than half of the river valley until he finally found it. The entrance was about ten to twelve meters above the frozen surface of the river. It didn't seem large, but it was actually larger than a regular water tank. The perfectly round shape seemed to be suggesting that it was a man-made cave.

In order to find it, Shangguan Hong had raised his head so frequently that he felt like his neck was about to break off.
