readx;

It was a stone cave carved out of the rock wall, about five meters high, just enough to accommodate the entry and exit of ships. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The entrance to the cave was blocked by a large stone door.

The stone gate is carved with an ancient animal motif, and it is very large. With the light source of the laser bar, it looks like a large python.

But Wu Fei knew that the thing carved on the stone gate was definitely not a python, but a Japanese totem, the Yaki Snake.

The name comes from the fact that the giant snake that appears in Japanese mythology has eyes like red lantern berries and has eight heads, so its whole body is divided into eight forks.

With moss, cypress and cedar trees, his body can fill eight valleys and eight hills.

His abdomen was festering and bleeding, and his head was often covered with rain clouds, and his body was as huge as nine peaks and nine valleys, and he was very fond of drinking.

Its belly was always bloody, as if it had eroded. Originally, it was worshipped as a god of water. It came to Izumo from Takashi and ate a girl as a sacrifice every year. At this time, the god Sugamu was exiled from Takamagahara, and on the condition that he ask to marry the old couple's daughter, Ki Inadahime, as his wife, he drunk the Yaqi Orochi, killed it, and appeared on its tail.

The Yaki Orochi is a symbol of the water hazard in the Izumo region in ancient times.

It stands to reason that in Japanese historical myths and allusions, the Yaki Orochi should be regarded as a fierce beast, and people should have a respectful attitude towards it.

However, there is also a theory that Susanoo did not kill the Yaki Orochi at that time, but subdued it as his own mount, so as to serve as the protector of Japan, just like the dragon of China.

As for the real situation, no one knows.

After all, it's just a myth and legend, and no one can trace its origin, nor can they verify it.

However, it is also reasonable for some people in Japan to worship the Yaki Orochi as a totem. In particular, some organizations use it as a symbol of the organization, which is more representative.

While Wu Fei was thinking about this, the red skull had already taken a step and came to the stone gate carved with the Yaqi Snake, and then put a token in his hand into the mouth of the Yaqi Orochi that was hovering around his body.

"Boom" ~

The next moment, a deafening sound sounded from the stone gate.

With the sound of sound, the stone door slowly opened, revealing its true face.

"Stop, what ..... are you"?

The two heavily armed guards behind the stone gate were instantly killed by the red skull before they could finish asking.

"Hurry in, the stone door will close automatically within ten seconds of opening. If you want to open it again, you can only wait for the tide to recede tomorrow."

Seeing that Wu Fei and Meng Na were still standing outside the stone gate, the red skull suddenly said to the two of them anxiously.

"Huh? And there is a time limit"?

Hearing this, Wu Fei didn't think much about it, and hurriedly pulled Meng Na's jade hand and collapsed into it.

At the moment when they stepped into the stone door with their front feet, the heavy stone door with their back feet suddenly closed from the state of opening.

"It's okay, it's okay, it scared me to death. If this is caught all of a sudden, won't it just become a meatloaf?"

Looking at the stone gate that had been closed, Wu Fei was a little afraid.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly just now and ran in time, otherwise, he would have been locked out of the stone gate and had to wait for another day.

"Holy Maiden, Holy Son, if you want to save people, I will take you to the room between the sixth and eighth floors of the base to make sure.

Now is the time for the guards to change shifts and eat, and the intensity of supervision will be weakened accordingly. However, from the five floors downward, each floor is guarded by two fierce sheepdogs.

As soon as they show an aura that they don't belong here, they will definitely scream, which will inevitably alarm the guards on all floors.

So, from now on, try to control the pace of your breathing and not let them appear.

These are two pills that I developed myself, which can cover the original breath on your body very well, so that they can't smell it. All you have to do is carry it in your arms, and you can wield its effects."

As she spoke, she took out two pills with body fragrance from her chest and put them in the hands of Wu Fei and Meng Na respectively.

When Wu Fei took the pill, he could still feel the residual warmth of the other party's body on it.

"Okay, without further ado, let's do it right away"!

Mona nodded, agreeing to Red Skull's suggestion.

"Holy Son, Holy Maiden, there is one more thing.... I don't know how to say it".

"Something, but it doesn't hurt to say it".

Seeing the red skull squirming with a twisted look, Mona was a little puzzled.

"It's just that the Holy Maiden and the Holy Son are tired of changing their clothes, your current clothes are a bit out of place, and they are easy to be seen by the guards.

Here are two sets that I just plucked from the guards, so I'm going to wear them."

"This .......".

Looking at the two sets of guard armor handed over by the red skull, Mona was in trouble for a while.

Wu Fei looked indifferent, took one of the guard armor and changed it in public.

However, as a saint of the Heavenly Organization and a girl, Mona naturally resisted such rough clothes. In addition, this is what the old man has worn before, which makes her even more uncomfortable.

"Master, I have a costume here that can temporarily transform your appearance, you can take it and wear it for your girlfriend."

Just when Meng Na was in a dilemma, Xiao Hei's voice suddenly sounded in Wu Fei's mind.

"Ah, and that kind of thing? Xiao Hei, if you have any extra ones, bring me one too."

"No, the current owner, your permission can only be exchanged for one piece."

Xiao Hei's reply suddenly made Wu Fei's heart cold.

"Okay, okay, just one piece, take it"!

He didn't want to see Mona's embarrassed face, so he asked Xiao Hei for the only piece of clothing and gave it to Mona.

The costume given by Xiao Hei was originally a transparent object similar to a cloak. However, when Meng Na wore it on her body, her appearance suddenly changed to the same as the guard armor on Wu Fei's body.

"What a magical dress, where did you get it?"

Seeing this, the two girls, Meng Na and Red Skull, both widened their eyes in surprise, looked at Wu Fei and asked.

"Well, this ...... That one... Let's go down and check it out. Otherwise, it will be difficult for them to start after a shift change."

It's not easy for him to tell Xiao Hei about it, so he can only play haha.

"Yes, saving people is the most important thing, let's go down quickly"!

was mentioned by Wu Fei, and the two remembered that the most important purpose this time was to save people, not to come and travel. Immediately, led by Red Skull, the three of them took the only mechanical elevator and descended towards the fifth floor of the base. 8
