Chapter 863: Ill-intentioned
Lan Zhi's message was very brief, but it made several people silent for a while.
The silence was not due to shock, because the situation was actually within their consideration.
Regardless of whether those masters of the Spirit Snake Cave were outside the Spirit Snake Cave or inside the Spirit Snake Cave, for Lan Zhi and those who wanted to go deep into the Spirit Snake Cave, they would encounter each other sooner or later, so it was only a matter of time before they were defeated.
It's just that no one would have thought beforehand that they would encounter such a formidable enemy so early.
Chu Feng was silent for a moment before Chu Zi'er muttered, "Master......"
Chu Feng shook his head before he said, "You still have to go for reinforcements, you all leave, it's enough for me here." ”
Bing Zhiqi finally spoke: "I'll go too." ”
Chu Feng couldn't ask Bing Zhiqi well, so he could only look at Lijuan, but Lijuan sneered twice, and said a little annoyedly: "Do you want me to go?"
Chu Feng could only laugh twice, and said to Chu Zi'er: "Zi'er......"
Chu Zi'er also sneered twice, looked at Liwan, but remained silent.
Of course, Liwan knew what Chu Zi'er meant, but at the moment, she couldn't speak after all, so she could only remain silent.
Chu Feng thought for a while before shaking his head and saying, "Your cultivation is ......."
"Don't worry about me, you don't have to worry about whether I'm alive or dead. Chu Zi'er became more and more annoyed, full of anger.
Cultivation, cultivation, how can it be cultivation again, can't you act if your cultivation is low?
Even if you don't have that qualification, but at least, you're not useless, if you don't have the poison you don't know, can you win that kind of profit?
Seeing Chu Zi'er's annoyance, Chu Feng was silent for a while, and then shook his head helplessly and said, "Then let's go together, just pay attention to your own safety, and flee by yourself first in case of danger." ”
There was no need for Chu Feng's instructions for such a thing, so Chu Feng said that a few people did not dare to delay for a long time, for fear of mistaking the lives of Lan Zhi and the others, and quickly rushed to the lower level of the Spirit Snake Cave.
The entrance of the lower layer of the Spirit Snake Cave is located on the mountainside of the back mountain of the main peak of the Spirit Snake Cave, and the entrance is the entrance of a cave with a path of Zhang Xu, as if it is really a snake cave.
A few people stepped into the cave, and immediately felt a cold and damp aura envelop them.
The cave was so dark that if you looked at it with the naked eye, even the outlines of the people in front of you were vague and difficult to see.
From the wall of the cave, water droplets continue to drip and fall to the ground, merging into the pools that have gathered, making a crisp sound, making people feel a little trance.
Relying on the light between their fingers, several people stepped on the cold and wet rock wall and galloped forward quickly.
The road was straight, but it sloped slightly downward, and it soon came to an end under the rapid galloping of several people.
At the end of the straight road, there is an extremely abrupt turn, and the road quickly turns a bend, clinging to the rock side wall of the previous level, and continues downward.
"Can you break the rock wall from here and cross over?" said Liwan as he walked forward, pointing to the cliff wall beside him.
The idea of leaving the silk is very simple, since this road is so tortuous, it stands to reason that as long as the rock wall can be broken, then it will undoubtedly take a long distance and save a long time for the road.
Before Chu Feng could speak, Bing Zhiqi had already swung the Condensing Knife, and a sword slashed down on the damp rock wall. The water vapor on the wet rock wall quickly froze into ice, but the Condensing Knife only drew a spark on the rock wall, which shone slightly in the darkness for a moment, and then completely dimmed.
Bing Zhiqi's attempt suddenly proved that Liwan's idea was nothing more than empty talk, and this rock wall might be able to be shattered, but it was definitely not something that a person of their level could do.
But the men had advanced some distance and saw an extremely irregular hole in the rock face, and there were cracks at the edge of the hole that stretched farther away.
Several people glanced at each other, and Chu Feng shone with light, confirming that the path through this breach was a continuous downward path, and a few people quickly passed through the gap that I don't know who left it.
A few people had just fallen into the path of moving downward, but a new gap appeared in front of them, which continued to extend diagonally downward.
This time, without much hesitation, several people passed through the gap and continued on their way.
After passing through dozens of gaps in a row, several people finally realized that they had no more gaps to cross, because in front of them was a road without any rock walls on either side.
They had now completely entered the depths of the Spirit Snake Cave.
They were now treading on an extremely old and rugged rocky road, the road was covered with the traces of time, on both sides of the road, there was an abyss that could not be seen to the end, and when they looked around, except for the left and right sides, there was no boundary at all, as if it were an endless earth, and when they looked up, they could see a black cloud that completely enveloped the land like the sky, spreading from the top of their heads in all directions, obscuring everything.
"This is ......" Chu Feng was also slightly shocked, he knew that this was the underground of the Spirit Snake Cave, but he didn't know at all how far this was to the lower level, and how far it was from Lan Zhi and the others.
Chu Feng and the others kept moving forward, and this road seemed to be completely endless, no matter how far Chu Feng and the others advanced, they didn't see the slightest change at all.
The road was still lying on its side so silently, silently, not reminding Chu Feng where they had been.
But Chu Feng and the others didn't stop, because they didn't seem to have a better way than to move forward at the moment.
Finally, there were some changes in the pavement.
A large pool of blood was splattered on the pavement.
The color of the blood is still very bright, and it has not even completely condensed, if you estimate it, I am afraid that the time for this blood to drip has not passed too long.
Chu Zi'er couldn't help frowning slightly, and said with some surprise: "This is the blood of the people of the Wu Clan." ”
Chu Feng also nodded, there was a unique smell in the blood, it was a kind of herb that the Wu people liked to take on weekdays, after taking it for a long time, the flesh and blood were combined with the herbs, and the blood was also mixed with the unique medicinal fragrance.
Therefore, judging from this fragrance that this is the blood of the Wu clan, although it is not rigorous, it should not be wrong.
"Keep chasing, it should be almost there. Chu Feng said as he spoke, but couldn't help frowning.
Liwan also hesitated and said, "If you calculate it according to time...... The Wu Clan's pleas for help should have been exhausted, and it had been a long time before they saw blood here......"
Liwan felt a little weird, because such a time difference was completely incorrect, the time from Lan Zhi's message saying that he had entered the cave smoothly until Lan Zhi sent a message for help was shorter than the time they had rushed here from the entrance of the cave, and the time left for the first drop of blood in front of them was not long judging from the degree of coagulation, at least when they received Lan Zhi's message for help, there was no such blood.
Liwan couldn't help frowning slightly, a little unclear, but Chu Zi'er couldn't help but change her expression, and said with consternation: "Could it be the ...... of the Wu Clan?"
Chu Zi'er was a little incredulous, if it was calculated like this, then I was afraid that the Wu Clan's request for support was simply fake, if it was really an urgent situation, where would Lan Zhi have the time to write that letter of support!
Chu Feng was silent for a moment, shook his head and said, "Don't care so much for now, you still have to look forward." ”
Chu Feng himself actually had some premonitions in his heart, the situation of this trip was only much more complicated than he imagined, the Wu Clan may not really be unprepared, could a clever character like Lan Zhi really not make any moves in the past three years?
If she didn't feel the slightest uneasiness and didn't take action for three years, how could her not strong reason prompt Lan Zhi to take action?
Chu Feng couldn't help but clench his fists, and then said in a hoarse voice: "Now I'm afraid that you have to be careful with anyone." ”
Anyone, including the people of the Spirit Snake Cave, as well as the possible allies of the Spirit Snake Cave, the Great Snow Mountain and the Ten Thousand Spider Mountains, in addition to their sure enemies, had to include a target who could not be sure whether it was friend or foe at this moment, and that was the Wu Clan.
What the hell are the Wicans thinking?
Whether they really had other plans, or were they just too careful, Chu Feng didn't have the time or interest to pay attention to this boring question now.
Chu Feng had the intention to retreat, but he was afraid that it was his suspicion that would eventually harm Lan Zhi, not to mention, the matter here was still related to the matter of the blood pool in the world after all, and if he wanted to retreat at the moment, there was no room for him.
"It's too late to return now. Chu Feng said.
No one paid attention to him, but continued to move forward quickly, Chu Feng was stunned, but he didn't say anything more, but quickly chased after him.
The four of them walked all the way, and constantly found spilled blood, at first it was only a little visible on the ground, but later, the blood stains became denser and more chaotic, and then directly developed a picture scroll drawn by blood, and then began to appear stumps, broken arms and even corpses.
Some of these stumps, broken arms and corpses belong to the Wu clan, looking at the color of the flesh and blood, they were all just killed in battle, and some of them were lucky enough to have their faces, and they could be identified as the elders of the Wu clan who were walking with Lan Zhi, while the rest of the corpses made the faces of several people more and more solemn.
Among those corpses, in addition to the disciples of the Spirit Snake Cave, there were disciples of Ten Thousand Spider Ridge, as for whether there were disciples of the Great Snow Mountain, it was impossible to know, after all, the Great Snow Mountain and the Spirit Snake Cave were generally accepted by both male and female disciples, and the clothes were not as exposed as those of the Ten Thousand Spider Mountains, so it was difficult to distinguish.
However, regardless of whether anyone in Daxue Mountain is also involved in this matter, the situation in front of everyone is not optimistic at all, and Wanzhuling can be listed among the three evils in the demon world, which is definitely not a waste of fame.
Now, the only thing they can be thankful about is that at least the Witch Clan's position is still the same as theirs at the moment.
Whatever the Wicans thought, at least until they gained the upper hand, they wouldn't have any disagreement.
