Chapter 714: Cave in distress
After many days of rushing together, it was rare to establish a harmonious coexistence, and under Xiao Jinxuan's deliberate estrangement, the two who entered the valley did not say a word to each other after that.
And the terrain of this Void Spirit Valley is also extremely peculiar, and the surrounding sunlight cannot shine in directly all year round, so the snow is extremely heavy, and the deepest place can reach the knees.
This kind of death valley is not suitable for animal life, and the birds and beasts on the periphery of the Void Spirit Valley have been cleaned up by Xiao Fengxi in advance.
Therefore, this trip into the valley to find medicine, except for the difficult road, there was not the slightest danger at all, and soon the two of them came to the vicinity of the Huoyun Mountain Range in the depths of the valley.
And as soon as he arrived here, Zhou Xianyu's expression showed a bit of reminiscence, and he said lightly:
"Princess Changde, you should stay here, in fact, I came to this Void Spirit Valley once back then, and I picked the karmic fire lotus for the sake of my family teacher. Now, after a few years, I don't want to be able to revisit the old place, and I know the terrain better than you. And the magma is dangerous, and you don't know martial arts, so it's better for me to go alone. ”
Xiao Jinxuan has never been a person who does not distinguish between importance and proportion.
Knowing that Zhou Xianyu was indeed safer to collect medicine alone, let alone being distracted to take care of her.
So Xiao Jinxuan didn't insist on following, but chose to stay very rationally.
But in the end, he was worried about Zhou Xianyu's safety, after all, if the magma and earth fire were not done well, people would be buried in it.
Therefore, in the end, Xiao Jinxuan accompanied Zhou Xianyu to the entrance of the cave under Huoyun Mountain, and then she stood outside and waited.
In this way, if there is any unusual movement inside, she can at least hear it, and can find a way to help rescue it.
And just when Zhou Xianyu was about to step into the cave, Xiao Jinxuan would not worry about the other party, and immediately couldn't help but ask:
"The prince must remember to do what he can, if it is difficult to obtain the karmic fire lotus, he will immediately withdraw the mountain and return it. I'll be waiting for you outside, and if anything happens, you'll have to tell me out loud. ”
Hearing Xiao Jinxuan's words, although Zhou Xianyu didn't think it was really surprising, even if the other party knew, what could he help.
But looking at Xiao Jinxuan's face full of unpretentious concern, Zhou Xianyu still nodded and accepted this kindness, and then walked into the magma cave.
As for Xiao Jinxuan, who was braving the wind and snow, waiting outside.
Although it was only half a pillar of incense, she felt that the time was too long, and she even felt like a year.
But what you are afraid of often comes, Xiao Jinxuan was panicking because Zhou Xianyu was exploring the cave alone.
Suddenly, a violent roar was heard in the cave, and even the stones next to the cave were shaken and tumbled.
As soon as she heard this voice, Xiao Jinxuan's heart sank, because she came back from rebirth, and she didn't dare to say that she was rich and rich, but she was also well-read.
Therefore, she knew very well that there would always be some fierce beasts and spirits guarding the side of this spiritual flower and grass, just waiting for the flowers and plants to mature and swallow them in their stomachs.
Although Xiao Jinxuan has never picked elixir, this statement is probably more legendary.
But the roar of the beast in this cave, the murderous aura is strong, and it is obviously not a good stubble.
Thinking of Zhou Xianyu, who has not yet come out of the cave, even if Xiao Jinxuan is calm on weekdays, it will be difficult to stay outside the cave safely.
Although she also knew that if she entered so rashly, she might have to worry about her life, and even die tragically under the claws of the roaring beast.
But thinking of Zhou Xianyu's uncertain life and death, Xiao Jinxuan still took care of a lot.
Immediately lifted the lower end of the skirt with both hands, and he was extremely bold, and walked into the cave without fear.
As soon as she entered, she walked about three hundred meters, and as the roar of the beast became clearer and clearer, Xiao Jinxuan also felt that the temperature of the surrounding rock walls was also rising.
After waiting for a corner, Xiao Jinxuan, who had been walking in the cave in the dark, suddenly felt that her eyes were bright.
She was amazed, but she found out after a closer look. The reason why it suddenly brightens up is due to the brilliance of the lava rivers.
The snow-capped Void Spirit Valley, but in the cave in the belly of Huoyun Mountain, it was unusually hot and dry, and the fire magma was turbulent.
Occasionally, the roof of the cave shook with the roar of the beast, and the stones that rolled down slid into the magma, and were instantly engulfed and melted, which made Xiao Jinxuan gasp.
Because she knows that this beautiful underground magma river is actually full of deadly dangers, and the slightest mistake will end up with no bones left.
Just when Xiao Jinxuan subconsciously took two steps back, trying to distance herself from the magma as much as possible.
Suddenly, she felt that her right wrist was being pulled hard, and before she could bear the pain to figure out the situation, Zhou Xianyu's angry voice came first.
"It's not that you are told to wait outside, why are you such a woman that you dare to break into the cave by yourself. It's a shame that I've been in the cave with the lava lizard, just in case I go out and lure it outside, and then I'll hurt you by mistake. It's good now, I'm afraid that both of us will die in the mouth of this beast today, so hurry up and run with me this way. ”
Because Xiao Jinxuan stumbled all the way inside, the position where she was standing now was far away from the passage she came in.
So it's obviously too late to turn back the way you came, because even Xiao Jinxuan can see it clearly.
From the fork in the cave in all directions, a lizard-like thing that was red as red as fire and more than three or four meters long, was shining fiercely in its eyes, and its mouth was constantly roaring towards them.
The most peculiar thing is that this lava lizard, even if it steps on the magma, it is not burned.
And because of this, its sturdy tail like an iron whip flicked in the magma, and immediately a rain of fire will blow in the cave, and if the sparks splashed by this magma touch the body, you will have to lose half your life if you don't die.
encountered this kind of strange beast that had survived for an unknown number of years, even if it was Zhou Xianyu, he would not venture to fight head-on.
So pulling Xiao Jinxuan, who was a little stunned and had never seen such a thrilling scene, the two of them didn't care where the fork in front of them led, and went straight into it.
In fact, this is completely forced to be helpless to hit the big luck, if the front can escape, then naturally everything will be fine.
And if the end of the fork in the road is a dead end, Zhou Xianyu is also ready for a battle, and even the personal dagger will be caught in his hand.
As for Xiao Jinxuan, she also recovered from her stunned shock, knowing that the situation was critical, even though her jacket and skirt were inconvenient, her arms and foreheads were running forward quickly, and she was bruised and bleeding.
But she didn't want to distract Zhou Xianyu, gritted her teeth and tried her best to keep up with the other party's speed and run forward.
And feeling that she was being held tightly by the other party, Xiao Jinxuan also felt very relieved.
Even if a fierce and bloodthirsty beast approached behind her, she didn't feel afraid.
Walking in the dark is not only extremely difficult, but even the time can be confusing and difficult to distinguish.
So I don't know how long it has been, Zhou Xianyu and the two of them only felt that there was a sudden light in front of them, and a large area of rising clouds and mist rushed towards them.
Before they could figure out the situation, the body that was running forward by inertia was slanted, and the foot was even more empty and fell out directly.
Out of a man's instinct, Zhou Xianyu took Xiao Jinxuan in his arms and protected him safely.
Then he turned his light skills around, and stepped on the rock wall next to him as he slid down, buffering most of the speed of the fall.
Therefore, there was a height of 100 meters and fell down, but Zhou Xianyu and Xiao Jinxuan also rolled and landed without danger.
Although it was inevitable that he would be sore from falling, in the end a life was saved.
I thought that I could avoid the magma beast, but when Xiao Jinxuan struggled to sit up from the ground.
She saw a red shadow, and her mouth let out a roar, and it also ran out of the hole where she and Zhou Xianyu had escaped, it was the lava lizard.
And this huge lizard, apparently the whole body is out of the air before it realizes that something is wrong, but it is obviously impossible for it to retreat into the cave.
Therefore, all I could hear was the lava lizard letting out a wail, and then its huge body fell irreversibly and quickly.
Because of the fog around them, after the lava lizard fell, Xiao Jinxuan and Zhou Xianyu only heard a loud sound of falling water, and it was not clear whether this behemoth was dead or alive.
But it seems that this lava lizard has fallen into some deep water, because soon countless splashes swept towards Xiao Jinxuan and Zhou Xianyu not far away.
But when the splash was wet on his body, not only Zhou Xianyu's expression immediately changed, but Xiao Jinxuan on the side immediately turned pale.
The reason why they reacted like this was because of the water ideas that flew in, and the drops were like ice, and the cold people were almost stiff.
Zhou Xianyu at least has internal force to protect his body, and this splash of water will not hurt him except for making him feel cold and biting, and it will not hurt him for a while and a half.
But seeing Xiao Jinxuan beside her, most of her skirts were wet, not only did her clothes freeze quickly, but the other party's lips were frozen a little purple, obviously because the cold was invading her body.
In this case, Zhou Xianyu couldn't take care of the grievances and grievances in the past.
He couldn't tell why, but when he thought of this disgusting princess Changde, if she really died in front of his eyes.
Zhou Xianyu asked himself, in fact, this was not the result he really wanted to see.
So he directly hugged Xiao Jinxuan into his arms, and Zhou Xianyu threw off the big coat he was wearing, and blocked all the splashes that were still splashing over one after another.
Listening to the sound of the lava lizard fluttering and roaring in the water not far away, Zhou Xianyu knew that this beast was struggling, and the splash would not stop.
Therefore, he put the internal force with one hand and passed it towards Xiao Jinxuan's body.
Duck behind a raised rock to avoid being splashed by the icy water.
Just like this, a full hour passed, Zhou Xianyu paid attention to the situation of the lava lizard, and at the same time used his internal force to protect Xiao Jinxuan's heart, so that the other party, who was already unconscious, would not be injured by the cold.
Just when Zhou Xianyu was instilled too much internal force, a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Xiao Jinxuan, who will be raised in Beirong for three years, has long been raised back from those physical weakness in the past, and her physique is gradually improving, can be regarded as waking up and slowly opening her eyes.
