Chapter Eighty-Five: The Underground Cave

Jiang Feng followed the fox catching team and slowly walked underground. In fact, it is difficult to distinguish between the fourth and fifth basement floors. The caves in these places are deep and intertwined like cobwebs. If you are not an experienced miner, you may not be able to turn out even if you enter this place for ten days and a half months.

Fortunately, the old Jiang Tou of Jiang Feng's team has been mining underground here for five years, and this large and small branch fork mine can't stop him.

At this time, Lao Jiang was leading the way, and he said as he walked: "Xiao Yuan, and you... Mute.... I have to be wary of you, this mine is not very peaceful! Although we have worked hard to mine a few years ago, there is no danger at all. Since last year, especially when we go down to the fourth floor, something has been popping up from underground. We call this thing the golden stone lizard. These lizards don't look at him big, but there are more than ten of them. They have sharp teeth and claws, and they are fast, but they are not easy to deal with. In the past two years, we have died at the mouth of these beasts, not to mention twenty or thirty people!"

Xiao Yuan had some questions when he heard this, so he asked, "Old Jiang, how can there be lizards under this cave, aren't these beasts unable to move without the sun?"

Lao Jiang replied: "Xiao Yuan, you don't know, these golden stone lizards are not mortal beasts! they are demon beasts, and these demon beasts feed on the underground fire spirit stones and gold and copper. They can absorb the heat from these ores, so they can live in the mine for a long time. You must know that an adult golden stone lizard has a four-layer ratio that can shoot flames! You think, such a narrow mine, if it burns up, there is nowhere to escape!"

When Xiao Yuan heard this, he was immediately scared. He hurriedly asked, "What should we do with Old Jiang, is it difficult to fight him?"

Lao Jiang said slowly: "Xiao Yuan, don't be afraid, although this golden stone lizard is powerful, it is not big. If it's two or three, we'll be able to handle it. If there are a few more of them, we must immediately use fishing nets to trap them, or find a place to seal the mine road, so that we cannot fight. These lizards also have a weakness, if they haven't eaten well, they tend to move more slowly. The fuller you eat, the faster you go. ”

While speaking, Jiang Feng and the others had already crossed several forks in the road and reached the fifth floor underground. Jiang Feng felt that the temperature of the mine seemed to be getting hotter and hotter.

At this time, Lao Jiang opened his mouth and said: "You two listen to me, they don't know how to hunt beasts at all, I heard the bastard of the Hundred Forging Sect say, that fox has a red tail." You may not understand, but the color of this monster is not born randomly. The red represents fire, the blue represents water, the green represents wood, and the yellow represents earth..... This is the five colors and five elements. I know there's a cave in the ground with hot springs in it. This cave was dug a few years ago. It's just that there is no mine there, and then I didn't go there. If the little fox is a fire beast, then the eight achievements are in that cave. ”

When Xiao Yuan heard that the fox had fallen, he immediately lifted his spirits, praised Lao Jiang repeatedly, and kept urging everyone to speed up.

Jiang Feng was on the side, although he didn't speak, but he also agreed with the old Jiang's analysis. He also estimated that this underground cave was the place where the blue light shone.

Lao Jiang led the way, turned several forks in the road, and finally came to the deepest part of the mine. I saw a mine hole on the upper side of the mine road, which was only the width of a shoulder, and the wall of the hole was very rough, with many sharp yellow protrusions. The cave looked a little deep, crooked, and you couldn't see the other end at once. But Jiang Feng's consciousness was released, and he could feel that there was an empty place at that end.

At this time, Lao Jiang nagged: "The place has arrived, but this mine is not easy to climb, you see that this yellow is gold and copper, this thing can be hard and tight, if you are not careful, it will pull a hole for you." Wrap your clothes around your hands and knees, and crawl slowly over to the cave. ”

Xiao Yuan caught the fox with a heartfelt heart, and when he saw him divide by two, he took off his clothes and wrapped his palms, and then took the lead in crawling into the hole. This mine cave is dozens of meters deep, and Jiang Feng's divine sense has not yet been able to fully detect the mirror image of the other end of the cave, so he no longer hesitates at the moment, and follows Xiao Yuan to crawl into the cave.

The three of them walked more than ten meters in turn, and all three of them sensed a wave of moisture, accompanied by a burst of sulfur warmth. It should be coming. Jiang Feng's divine sense suddenly moved, and he keenly felt that there were obvious aura fluctuations at the end of the cave, and judging from the huge fluctuating aura, there was more than one living creature with aura.

The three of them crawled for another ten meters, and at this time, Jiang Feng's divine sense had completely felt the situation at the bottom of the cave. The bottom of this cave is about fifty zhang square, the cave is full of strange stones, stalactites are like a long sword, Qi Sensen's face to the ground, as if as long as the visitor is a little disrespectful, immediately through the chest. There are three springs underground, and there are hot springs gushing out of the bottom of the cave, forming a hot spring pool of more than ten zhang square at the bottom of the cave. The air at the bottom of the cave was not calm, and bursts of snake whispers kept coming to my ears.

When Jiang Feng and the three climbed to the entrance of the cave, they couldn't help but be frightened by the scene in front of them. I saw that there were more than 100 golden stone lizards in the empty cave. They were huddled around the hot springs in twos and threes, sticking out their tongues, and the two green eyes of the beast kept looking around. It's as if they're looking for some kind of prey. These lizards are small, just over two feet long. They may live underground all year round, with rough skin and thick flesh, and round protrusions on the top and bottom of the mixed body, like spikes in armor. The toes of the four feet are like hooks, and the faint blue light that glows from them seems to be poisonous.

Fortunately, the entrance of the cave where Jiang Feng is located is in the upper half of the cave, which is more than ten zhang high from the bottom of the cave, and the position is very hidden. At the bottom of this mine, for some reason, the monk's divine sense was greatly affected, but the advantage was that it was difficult for the demon beasts to find Jiang Feng's traces. Lao Jiang and Xiao Yuan were already stunned by the scene in the cave. Xiao Yuan began to retract vigorously, and Jiang Feng hurriedly pulled him back, signaling him to cling to the ground and not make a sound. Xiao Yuan's little commotion just now had already caused the spiritual consciousness of the golden stone lizard, and the closest group of lizards raised their heads one after another and looked towards where Jiang Feng was.

The three of them were clinging to the ground at the moment, and they didn't even dare to breathe. But the nearest lizard group still sent two lizards to reconnoiter the hole where Jiang Feng was.

Jiang Feng noticed it, and hurriedly signaled Lao Jiang to be the first to retreat, Xiao Yuan to follow, and he was the last to break off.

Xiao Yuan said softly: "Dumb... You have to be careful. Jiang Feng smiled at him and motioned for him to leave quickly. The two lizards crawled very fast, and in a moment they were near the entrance of the cave. Jiang Feng pinched his right hand, and was ready to put a few wind blades to drive the two lizards off the stone wall first.

At this moment, there was a change in the cave, and the originally calm hot spring began to erupt violently at this moment, and the water column that spewed out was more than a foot high, and there was also a change in the pool, and the originally calm hot spring pool began to become restless, as if something was churning at the bottom of the pool.

Sure enough, after a while, a demon beast emerged from the pool. This demon beast is two feet long, with fangs and a long mouth, like an upgraded version of the golden stone lizard.

"Could this be the Golden Stone Lizard King?" Jiang Feng guessed.

As soon as the monitor lizard surfaced, it raised its head to the sky and hissed, its sound like the roar of a beast, and it was monstrous. The huge tail is constantly slapping the water and making a loud noise.

All the lizards stopped their activities when they saw the lizard king, and one by one they fell to the ground in a show of obedience. The two lizards that were close to Jiang Feng also quickly climbed to the ground at this time, respectfully greeting their king.

The Lizard King seemed to be hiding in a hot spring to absorb the heat, and at this moment, its whole body was full of red light, and a manic fire spirit power unconsciously emitted it. Jiang Feng hurriedly picked up the Jade Screen Skill, and secretly used the Spirit Eye Technique to observe the lizard king's movements. At a glance, Jiang Feng couldn't help but be a little apprehensive, this Lizard King was a third-level Great Perfection Demon Beast, looking at its spiritual potential and coercion, I was afraid that it would be advanced to the fourth level. Demon beasts are different from monks, they rely on their own talents for cultivation, although they lack spiritual intelligence, their natural powers are often stronger than ordinary immortal cultivators. Therefore, monks rarely catch demon beasts alone, but form teams to hunt them.

After the Golden Stone Lizard King made a huge movement, he suddenly became calm. It stared silently at the surface of the hot spring, as if waiting for something.
