Chapter 216: Exploration
"Why are you here?"
Although the number of people here is not very large, Li Xiye recognized it at once, these people are all people who had gone to the open space to gather and came to participate in the demon eradication conference. [Ran^Text^Library] []
"It's really Master Li!"
The group of people didn't mean to answer Li Xiye's question at all, and after confirming Li Xiye's identity, they ran over one after another. After leaving the temple, Li Xiye's appearance returned to the appearance of an old man, so it did not arouse the suspicion of others at this time.
The group of people were all around Li Xieye, and there was no one around Bai Haoye, so he patted the dust on his body by himself and looked at Li Xieye's depressed face.
"Are you a friend of Master Li?"
Just then, a woman who looked like she wanted to be young walked up to White Cocoon's side and whispered hello to him. This woman is about in her early twenties, wearing a black dress, and she has come to exorcise demons. She has a beautiful face and a perfect figure, and the white cocoon can't help but look at it a few more times, and then realize that her behavior is a little inappropriate, and people seem to have asked.
"yes, I'm that guy's companion."
He deliberately added a bar at the end of the sentence to show that he didn't know exactly what the relationship was, but the woman didn't seem to understand at all, nodded and said:
"My name is Li Wanqing, I happen to have the same surname as Master Li, I originally planned to take the opportunity of this demon eradication conference to leave the sect to come out to practice, and by the way, I also wanted to take this opportunity to meet the legendary Master Li, but there was such an accident!"
The white cocoon looked at Li Wanqing and blinked, but she was a little shocked in her heart. This Li Wanqing is obviously a disciple of a certain sect, but he actually has such a high regard for Li Xieye, or Li Xieye's master, and has even risen to the point of legend, which makes him a little unhappy At the same time, he also deeply feels that his decision not to fight with him before is correct.
"My name is Cocoon, speaking of which, what is your current situation? Li Xiye and I were led to other places by someone with a heart before, so we don't know much about the situation here. ”
What Bai Cocoon said was not a lie, but he speculated in his heart, and he felt that Wang Qingyuan was very suspicious of the person who led them away. It's just that maybe he didn't know that Li Xieye was planning to go up to that mountain.
"Lured away by someone with a heart? Is that so, when we came here before, I was a little surprised to see that Master Li was not in the crowd, but I didn't expect this to be the case! ”
Li Wanqing didn't doubt Bai Cocoon's words at all, and directly showed an expression of amazement. White Cocoon couldn't help but be a little speechless, thinking to herself, are you a little too easy to deceive? So after thinking about it, he added:
"That's just my speculation, but I guess 10* is the truth."
"Well, in fact, we were also wondering where Master Li had gone."
Li Wanqing sighed and looked around, and the white cocoon also followed her gaze to the large group of people. Li Xiye was still surrounded by the group of people, and it seemed that there was no way to get out for the time being, but he still winked at the white cocoon through the gap in the crowd.
The white cocoon suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and this feeling was that you were walking on the street and suddenly a man came over and touched your buttocks, and then threw a wink at you, making him tremble all over.
Li Wanqing also seemed to see Li Xiye's actions, the corners of her mouth raised a little curvature, and she trusted Bai Cocoon more in her heart.
"Actually, there is indeed a very powerful monster living here, originally we all thought that this monster was at best a cultivator demon who attacked the fire and entered the demon, but it turned out that it was really not a human, but no one knew what it was."
"A very powerful monster? You've already fought with it? ”
White Cocoon was stunned, thinking that the monster didn't seem to be as rebellious as he had imagined before, otherwise these people would have died a long time ago, so there was still a chance to live until now?
"Yes, we were completely crushed, but he didn't kill us, he just trapped us here, and I didn't know what to do."
"Crushed? As for it, what about so many of you, even if you can't beat him, can't you escape? ”
The white cocoon was a little stunned, could it be that this monster is actually really strong, but is there any other use for deliberately keeping these people? If you think about it carefully, it's true, otherwise he wouldn't have to grab himself and Li Xiye, because it was pointless, it just added some risk factors.
"Of course we thought about escaping, but the monster was still there when we were outside before, and all the people who tried to escape were dead, and now that we're here, there's nowhere to escape!"
Speaking of which, Li Wanqing was also a little deflated. If she could, she didn't want to stay in this ghost place, although they were all cultivators, they wouldn't starve to death, and they all had dry food on them, and there was light in this place, and it wouldn't be dark enough to make people live in fear, but it wasn't a matter to stay here all the time, and they didn't know what that monster wanted to do.
"Is this fully enclosed?"
The white cocoon looked around and found that there was a passage in front of and behind him, so he asked. Li Wanqing shook her head and explained:
"We've explored, and in front of us is a waterhole, and behind it is a huge cavern that is pitch black and you can't see anything."
The group of people surrounding Li Xieye also noticed that Bai Cocoon and Li Wanqing were standing aside and seemed to be discussing something, but they were not familiar with Li Wanqing, let alone Bai Cocoon, and at this time, they still felt that it was more practical to please Li Xiye.
But even so, there were still a few people who looked at the two of them with bad intentions, Li Wanqing didn't care, she was born beautiful, and she liked to go out to practice, make friends, and she had seen more people of all kinds, and although Bai Cocoon was a little angry, Xiao Fan's sentence "As long as you want, they can all die immediately" immediately made him feel very entangled.
Bai Cocoon also feels that his strength is now in a state where it looks strong and can be used, but in fact it is completely superficial, that is to say, it will be much stronger than ordinary cultivators, but it is still scum compared to those who are really powerful.
If it weren't for the two great gods in his body who had nothing to help him, he would have died a long time ago, I don't know how many times.
So if it really follows Xiao Fan's words, the strength of these people can only be described by a scumbag, but such a scum is called to participate in some demon eradication conference, either the organizer has a bad head, or he has ulterior motives.
So he wasn't in the mood to bother with this group of people, so it was true that he quickly understood the situation.
"Waterholes and huge caverns, have you explored them in that cavern? What about under the waterhole? ”
"I can't explore, I can't see my fingers in the cave, our lighting tools are quite limited, we can't explore at all, and the waterhole over there is not to mention, I don't know if there are any monsters in it, and our water nature is not very good......"
Li Wanqing's face was a little red, I don't know if it was because of the firelight or because the water was not good, so she was a little embarrassed. White Cocoon didn't think anything of it, and he couldn't swim himself anyway.
Li Xiye was not idle, he kept asking about the situation here, and finally learned a lot from these people's intermittent descriptions, and then he pushed aside the crowd and walked to Bai Cocoon's side.
"Why don't you keep talking to those people?"
Bai Cocoon was a little curious about what Li Xieye was doing here, and at the same time, he remembered what he had blinked at him before, and unconsciously took a step back. Li Xieye didn't know why, he thought that something had happened behind him, he looked back and didn't find anything, and said to Bai Cocoon suspiciously:
"What is there to say to a group of cannon fodder, they can't know anything anyway."
He said this relatively quietly, and the large group of people didn't hear it, but Li Wanqing heard it clearly, and immediately frowned, but Li Xiye's next words made her breathe a sigh of relief.
"It's also for their good to keep a distance from them, and it's me and you who are the biggest threat to that monster here, so if something happens at that time, we'll have an accident first, so it's good to stay away from them."
"You can think about it, but with so much cannon fodder, I really don't know what it's used for, isn't it specifically used to nourish that monster?"
Bai Cocoon shrugged his shoulders, and then said a possibility, but Li Xiye really nodded matter-of-factly, and then said:
"I guess that's it, but I don't know what they're trying to do with this monster."
"How dare you think about it!"
Bai Cocoon patted his head, he just said casually, even he didn't believe in this idea very much, but Li Xieye actually agreed, and Li Wanqing was even more stunned when he heard it on the side. She's not stupid, and she almost understands that she's being calculated, but it's still a little unacceptable.
When did the demon slaying conference actually turn into sending warmth to monsters?
"So what do we do now? Wait for them to turn into warmth and send it out, and then find out what the monster is really about? ”
"Then it's too late, let's start exploring it now."
Although he knew that Bai Cocoon was talking back, Li Xiye still replied solemnly, of course, this was also for Li Wanqing. He had already learned Li Wanqing's identity from those who were taken as sacrifices, and at the same time, he also knew that her strength was not comparable to that group of people.
"But we don't have a way to investigate, the cave is very large, there is not enough light to see clearly, and the waterhole is even more difficult to explore."
Li Wanqing glanced at the people who were gathered in a bunch over there, wanting to come over but didn't dare to come, and then sighed. They are all miscellaneous characters, which she already knew before, so naturally she can't ask too much of them, but this also makes her clear about her camp.
"The light source shouldn't be a problem, my companion is still good at light sources, and as for that waterhole, it's really a bit troublesome."
While speaking, Li Xieye held his chin and fell into deep thought, while Bai Cocoon blinked his eyes in amazement, thinking that his own role was a light source? However, he still didn't have a seizure, and quietly waited for Li Xiye to come up with a way to get into the water.
"Let's discuss the entry into the water later, but let's go to the cave for now."
As a result, when Bai Cocoon saw that Li Xieye finally opened his mouth and planned to hear what constructive plan he had, Li Xieye actually gave up very decisively, which also made Bai Cocoon speechless for a while, but Li Wanqing showed an expression of appreciation, and making a decision immediately can be regarded as a rare and valuable quality.
So, Li Xiye ran to the group of people and explained to them that he was going to explore this place, hoping that they would stay in this safe place and not walk around. He and the others agreed very decisively, and they were obviously afraid of death and did not want to follow.
The three of them slowly moved forward along the stone path, and the further they went, the dimming of the light, and finally to the point where they couldn't see their fingers, White Cocoon casually made a fireball and controlled it to suspend in midair.
In the past, his fireballs had only one function, which was to destroy, but now this kind of functional, such as lighting fireballs, can be retracted and released freely. Li Wanqing even sighed involuntarily, sure enough, Master Li's assistant was not an ordinary person.
In this regard, Bai Cocoon just rolled his eyes helplessly at Li Xiye, and Li Xiye shrugged his shoulders, indicating that it was none of his business.
When they advanced to a certain point, the originally narrow space slowly became wider, the three of them glanced at each other, Li Wanqing deduced the distance and nodded, indicating that not far in front of them was the huge space.
So their pace slowed down suddenly, Bai Cocoon wanted to control the fireball to find the way, so he stood at the front, Li Xiye stood at the back of the hall with the rune paper, and Li Wanqing was protected by them in the middle, which made Li Wanqing moved, after all, the large group of people before completely used her, a slightly more powerful person, as a shield!
Seeing that the stone walls on both sides of the road suddenly appeared, White Cocoon understood that they had reached their destination.
"Can you make the fire bigger, there should be a lot of space here."
Li Wanqing spoke to the white cocoon quite politely, which was also very useful to the white cocoon, so he slowly increased the volume of the fireball, but to his surprise, even if the fireball had reached the limit state that he could safely control, it was still dark and he couldn't see anything.
"What's wrong? Can't it be any bigger? ”
"That's the limit, it's likely to explode!"
Li Xiye frowned, if this was the limit, then their plan to explore this place might be in vain!
