Chapter 141: Food
"Ha, ha, haha, I didn't expect that after so many years, there was fresh food delivered to the door, it's really good, hahaha, haha......"
A gruff and hoarse laugh echoed through the empty cavern, and a frightening gust of wind shook like the eve of a blizzard.
Ling Yiyi, who had just escaped from the cliff cave, was lying on the flat ground above the exit of the cave, on the cold stone, and her happy mood was interrupted by a sudden disgusting laughter.
"Who?"
The two extremely cold 'who' suddenly echoed in the emptiness, echoing with the wild and bloodthirsty laughter.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect this food to have some personality, hahaha......"
The exhausted Ling Yiyi and Zhao Xuanchen, who were lying on his back, glanced at each other, instantly turned over and got up, knelt on one knee with a guarded expression, his cold and ruthless gaze shot like a sword at the source of the arrogant voice, and his right hand quietly held the dagger on his waist.
Zhao Xuanchen, who was seriously injured and physically and mentally exhausted, swept away the messy ink-colored robe, held a soft sword in his hand, his clear and pure eyes were as deep as a deep pool, shining with a bewitching light, and he was deep and vigilant like Ling Yiyi, looking at the source of the sound that was still laughing wildly.
Only then did they see that they had climbed out of the cave with great difficulty, thinking that they would be out of the world, but they were extremely disappointed.
The place where they are now is actually a cave again, perhaps it can also be called a stone house, the tables, chairs and benches are not as clean and tidy as the stone house, except for a few broken bowls in the center of the stone house.
They were now standing at the edge of the stone house, not far from the opposite wall, with five chains as thick as sticks chaining a wild man whose face he could not see, and from his mouthful and arrogant cries came from his mouth.
Perhaps because he hadn't spoken for a long time, his voice was rough and hoarse, worse than a duck's voice.
"It's really fresh food, I'm going to eat you, hahaha......"
The thick iron chain was scraggled by the savage, the chain was not long, about a zhang or so, one end was fixed in the stone wall, and the other was a beard and long hair shawl like straw, and the limbs and waist of the savage who could not see the appearance were tightly locked.
The wild man was wearing a tattered white and black robe, and at this time, he was screaming and rushing towards the two of them with his teeth and five claws, wanting to tear Ling Yiyi and Zhao Xuanchen into pieces and swallow them into the spit, but due to the limited length of the chain, he could not do so, so he could only scream frantically and pounce on the two of them.
Ling Yiyi looked at the sloppy savage who was chained, watching him struggling frantically and could only shout, there was still a distance of about a meter from them, the worry in her heart suddenly decreased a lot, she quietly let go of the dagger in her hand, and reached out to support Zhao Xuanchen who was leaning against her.
"Did you think he's crazy? Or maybe they haven't eaten meat in 800 years, so they want to eat us so anxiously! ”
She has only seen this person cannibalizing from a storybook, but she has never seen a person who wants to eat people, what else can he be if he is not a madman!
Zhao Xuanchen held the soft sword tightly in his hand, did not relax his vigilance at all, and rested his big hand on the shoulder of Ling Yiyi, who was exhausted, and stood in place with each other's guard.
"I'm going to eat you, hahaha......."
Zhao Xuanchen, who was extremely injured and could not use his internal force, swept his eyes at the locked savage with deep eyes on his pale face, and retracted his gaze to look around.
"I don't know if he's crazy or not, but I know that he must have not eaten meat in a long time!"
Ling Yiyi took two steps back with Zhao Xuanchen with her small hand, leaning against the cold wall, her clear eyes carefully looking at the environment they were in with Zhao Xuanchen.
The bare walls were covered with moss, the floor was full of dust, it must have been untended for many years, not a single leaf, only a few tattered bowls, no doors and no exits to leave, and the light came from there.
Ling Yiyi and Zhao Xuanchen ignored the roaring sound, ignored the wild men struggling to eat their flesh, looked up at the top of their heads, and saw that on the top of their heads, which was about ten feet high, there was a hole about the size of a wellhead open.
Sunlight and cold wind shone into the closed stone house from top to bottom from the wellhead, and the bright sunlight shone in and dispersed, and then shone into the stone cave that Ling Yiyi and they climbed up, and the cold wind blew into the cave, leading straight to the cave under the cliff where the cold pool was connected.
Ling Yiyi and Zhao Xuanchen immediately understood that the place where they were at this time should be a simple prison cell, and there was no other way out except for the wellhead that was more than ten zhang high to get out.
However, the ten-foot-high wall did not have any borrowing point, and there was no way to rely on the two wounded men to go up.
And this cell, if they guessed correctly, should be the forbidden place in the mountain behind Xiangguo Temple, the forbidden place where no one is allowed to break in, and such a wild man is actually imprisoned.
Looking at the tattered bowls on the ground, and the thin but powerful appearance of the wild man, it must be that every day or every day or two, someone brought food down from the mouth of the well.
Thinking of this, Ling Yiyi was overjoyed, as long as they waited for the monk who brought food to this wild man, then they could go out.
At this moment, Zhao Xuanchen suddenly felt that his arms were empty, and when he looked down, Yiyi in his arms suddenly slipped out of his arms and headed in the direction of the wild man.
"Yiyi!" Zhao Xuanchen shouted, stretched out his hand to grab Yiyi, but he didn't want to, a stone with a strong internal force hit head-on, hitting his acupoint, Zhao Xuanchen saw it, immediately turned sideways, and when he turned around and grabbed Yiyi, Ling Yiyi had actually arrived in front of the savage.
The savage in a tattered robe that turned white to black, his long hair was messily draped over his shoulders like grass, and his black five fingers were in the shape of claws, using invisible internal force to suck Ling Yiyi in front of him.
Ling Yiyi only felt that her body was uncontrollable and ran forward, her feet resisted the suction force, how could she bear the excessive blood loss caused by her injury, and her body was too consumed, she couldn't resist the strong suction force at all, and her slender body involuntarily walked towards the wild man.
Zhao Xuanchen saw that the savage's internal force was so strong, even if he was not injured, he was not the opponent of the savage, his pale face became even paler, and he yelled, "Let go of Yiyi!" ”
Holding the soft sword in his hand with his big hand, Zhao Xuanchen ignored the serious injury and pain, forcibly exercised his internal force, and waved the sword to attack the arrogant savage.
The savage's wolf-like vicious gaze swept over the sword that was close at hand, and Zhao Xuanchen, who was seriously injured, snorted lightly, "Hmph, don't measure yourself!" ”
I saw that with a wave of his shabby long sleeves, the strong internal force was like a typhoon, and Zhao Xuanchen, who was holding on to save people, was swung to the hard wall with his sword.
Zhao Xuanchen's body smashed uncontrollably against the wall on the side, and then slid limply to the ground.
"Bang! Idiot! ”
Ling Yiyi heard a loud noise, and when she turned around, she saw Zhao Xuanshen being slapped away by the savage, and shouted worriedly, "Fool, are you okay!" ”
Ling Yiyi felt that her limbs and body were invisibly bound by something, and she kept struggling to resist, but she couldn't do anything, and then, she was already in front of the wild man, only to feel a pain in her shoulder, but she couldn't help but look at Zhao Xuanchen who was lying on the ground.
"Fool, leave me alone, you step back!"
After a few days, a monk who delivered food came and he could be rescued.
"Yiyi," as soon as he spoke, Zhao Xuanchen, who was lying on the ground, immediately spurted out a few mouthfuls of blood from his mouth, spraying onto the placket of his clothes and the ground in front of him, "Ahem, ahem, let go of Yiyi!" Let go...... Yiyi! ”
Zhao Xuanchen endured the pain in his heart like a knife, and his deep and worried eyes kept staring at Ling Yiyi, who was accused, supporting the ground with both hands, and struggled to get up from the ground, the long sword in his hand pointed at the savage, "Let go of Yiyi!" ”
As soon as he spoke, Zhao Xuanchen, who was standing by force, spurted out the blood in his mouth again, as if he didn't want money, and he still looked at Ling Yiyi, who was caught, with a wet robe.
The savage's five fingers were tightly clasped on Ling Yiyi's shoulder, who was thin, and he lowered his head to smell the daughter's fragrance and delicious blood, and shook his head with satisfaction and sighed, "Fresh and delicious blood, how long has it been since the palace master has enjoyed it!" It's so fragrant! ”
Ling Yiyi listened to the chilling voice, and couldn't help but shrink her neck, damn, I met a cannibal.
Zhao Xuanchen's heart tightened, wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth and said loudly, "Let go of her, you want to eat me!" ”
Ling Yiyi shook her head at Zhao Xuanchen, "Fool, stay away!" ”
Her slender shoulders were grasped by the five fingers of the savage, and the five fingers were buckled into the flesh and the pain was so painful that she felt that the savage was lowering his head and smelling her, but the small body that could not move was loosened, and it should be the internal force of the savage restraining her that was withdrawn.
Ling Yiyi was overjoyed in her heart, and the small hand hanging on the side of her hand flipped and stabbed towards the wild man's arm.
The wild man only felt a flash of light in front of him, and the cold blade slashed towards his wrist, and immediately let go of the big hand that was holding Ling Yiyi, and instead clasped the other hand to Ling Yiyi's other shoulder.
How could Ling Yiyi give him a chance, strode forward and approached the wild man, his small hand clenched the sharp dagger that had just been drawn from his waist, swung away the wild man's attack, and stabbed it cleanly towards the wild man's heart.
Zhao Xuanchen, who vomited blood, used his internal force to shoot to Ling Yiyi's side like an arrow, the soft sword in his hand swept towards the savage's neck, and his left hand carried the internal force to slap the savage's head.
Under the wild man's low-hanging withered hair, a pair of dark lights flashed as deep as a demon, and his body instantly retreated, and his ten fingers of both hands formed claws to attack Ling Yiyi's neck, and Zhao Xuanchen's big palm.
"Retreat!"
At the same time as the savage retreated, Ling Yiyi pushed Zhao Xuanshen, who was seriously injured beside him, out with his backhand, standing in front of the savage like a mountain, and attacked with a dagger, protecting Zhao Xuanchen behind him.
Zhao Xuanchen involuntarily took a few steps back, retreated to the wall far away from the savages, leaned against the wall weakly, and shouted unwillingly, "Yiyi!" ”
