Chapter 210: It's Close
After a night without saying anything, the four of them blocked their backpacks at the entrance of the hole to block the biting cold wind, snuggled up to each other, and finally survived this difficult cold night.
After making sure that the wolves lingering on the cliff had left, Lu Ming and the four climbed up along the rope. From a distance, there is indeed a blooming 'sea of red flowers' on the meadow, the breeze blows, and the 'petals' tremble gently, like layers of red waves, which is beautiful. But Lu Ming and the four of them had palpitations, took a quick look, didn't dare to stay too long, and hurriedly identified the direction and left.
The road became more and more rugged and difficult, and as far as the eye could see, there were bare hills, few trees growing, and black rocks forming their coat.
The scorching sun hung in the air, and the scorching light shone on the black rocks of various shapes and sizes, causing the air to heat up rapidly, and the heat wave in front of him rose, like a trace of water temperature shrouded between heaven and earth, and it was terribly hot. The temperature here is as eerie and fickle as it has been rumored, in stark contrast to the bone-chilling cold of last night.
Walking under such high temperature is the biggest test of the human body, among the four people, only Lu Ming and Yan Lin can still persevere, Huang Ling'er and Chu Qing's feet have been blistered, their pretty faces are red, their lips are dry, and there are already signs of heat stroke. Yan Lin's exercise in the police academy gave her a very good physical foundation, but at this time, she was also extremely tired, and her forehead was full of hot sweat.
Near noon, the black rocks had been exposed to the sun and were a little hot, and stepping on his feet felt like stepping on a soldering iron, and Lu Ming had to find a place to stop on the sunny side of a hill.
In fact, he is not much better than Huang Ling'er and the others. His back was left with a horrific pecking wound from the flock of red birds, and his skin was peeled open. Walking in such a high temperature for half a day, the whole body is soaked with hot sweat, and the herbs applied have been washed away by sweat, and the sweat penetrates into the wound, and the salt contained in the sweat irritates the wound, which is extremely unbearable pain.
Peel off the shirt that has been torn in several places, the shirt is close to the wound, and when it comes down, it pulls the flesh and skin. Almost ripped it off. Blinding. Rao is Lu Ming is often injured, and he is still gasping in pain. The closer you get to the Dragon's Grave, the more dangerous and difficult it is to provoke the creatures you encounter.
It's like a flock of red birds in the grass with unique camouflage skills. They are very small and tiny. But the sharp mouth was as sharp as a blade. Lu Ming has exercised his muscles and bones since he was a child. The skin is tough enough, tense the body, and encourage arrogance. It can make the body produce great toughness, and if it is an ordinary flock, it will not be able to hurt him at all.
But the small flock of birds pecked his back in the blink of an eye!
"The wound is inflamed."
Huang Ling'er glanced at Lu Ming's bare back and couldn't help frowning.
Lu Ming is also aware of his back injury, in fact, under the magical effect of blood jade, his injury has improved extremely amazingly, but the wound pecked by the flying bird is too deep, and it is not so easy to heal.
Waiting for Huang Ling'er to help him re-bandage his wounds, Lu Ming took out the three remnants and looked at them carefully, with a slight look of excitement and excitement on his face, and after a while, he seemed to have finally determined something, and couldn't help but climb to the top of the hill and look at the surrounding environment.
The monotonous, bare hills in front of you, and the scorching sun on the black rocks that heat up so easily that a wave of heat swayed in front of you.
In a place that is difficult to reach as far as the eye can see, you can vaguely see a majestic mountain rising from the ground and soaring into the sky.
The majestic peak is very distinctive, it is held up by five huge bare hills, and it is only at a height of nearly 100 meters that it reunites to form one.
Nine huge vines were like iron chains hanging from the sky, like nine giant dragons coiling over the majestic mountain.
From a distance, it looks like a huge foot suddenly sticks out of the clouds, and after an unknown distance, it gives people a spectacular shock that shakes their hearts.
The destination of Lu Ming and the four of them is it!
The destination of all adventurers who come here is also it, the entrance to the Dragon Tomb!
It's finally here!
Then Huang Ling'er, who followed Lu Ming up the hill, and the three of them all quietly looked at the majestic mountain peak that stretched out into the clouds, no one spoke, and everyone's hearts were inexplicably shaken.
"That's where you're going? Is it really as magical as the legend says? provoked so many people to rush one after another despite the dangers. ”
After a long time, Yan Lin was the first to speak, turning his head to look at Lu Ming.
Lu Ming shook his head and said, "I don't know, whether the Dragon Tomb is as magical as the legend, I'm afraid everyone doesn't know." Still, I'd rather it be a place full of secrets. ”
"For the treasure inside?"
Yan Lin's curiosity about the Dragon Tomb was actually not deep, she followed into the Erya Jungle, and then walked all the way here, more because of her father's illness and the complicated feelings for Lu Ming in her heart.
Seeing the majestic mountain peak that reached into the sky, only a stone's throw away from the Dragon Tomb, in addition to shock, there was no excitement like Lu Ming, Huang Ling'er and Chu Qing.
Lu Ming looked at the vague outline of the mountain peak, nodded, shook his head again, and said, "Yes, not all." He glanced at Huang Ling'er, but Huang Ling'er's expression was extremely calm, just quietly looking at the blurred outline, it was difficult to see her inner emotions from her face.
Seeing Yan Lin looking at him suspiciously, Lu Ming continued: "I am for the secret inside, and the promise to the master, both of which are extremely important to me, so I hope it is really as legendary." ”
Yan Lin sighed, then looked at Chu Qing, who was also immersed in excitement, and asked, "Chu Qing, what about you?" What are you here for. ”
Lu Ming couldn't help but look at Chu Qing, too, he really didn't know what Chu Qing was a girl for, entering this dangerous Erya jungle alone. If it is said to be for treasure and money, it is not very similar.
Along the way, from time to time, I can see many adventurers who have died in battles or dangerous places, and they actually carry some belongings on their bodies, but Chu Qing has never disdained it. It's just that she's been following silently, and it's easy to forget why she's here.
Chu Qing withdrew his gaze from afar, smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, I don't know what I want, I just want to find something that can stimulate me." ”
“”
Lu Ming and Yan Lin could only shake their heads speechlessly.
Seeing that Lu Ming's eyes turned to him, Huang Ling'er did not look back, still looking at the vague outline of the mountain peak in the distance, and said calmly: "This is my last chance." ”
Huang Ling'er's expression and tone were extremely calm, but the more this happened, the more Lu Ming felt unaccustomed, frowning slightly, and some worries came up in his heart. But Huang Ling'er was obviously unwilling to say more about this, smiled at Lu Ming, and turned the topic to something else
