Chapter 14: The Cave of the Immortals
With the help of Ling Jun and Shen Yu, this section of the road was much smoother, and when they arrived at the Tiger Wolf Pass, it was midnight, and this hour was the time when the demons were most rampant. In front of her eyes was the darkness that could not be seen, and Zhiying's heart was half fearful and half worried, and she clutched her sword tightly, looking for a solace for herself. The night in the mountains was very cold, but Zhiying had a feeling of sweating, and when it was blown by the wind, she shivered.
"Girl, relax, we're here to find someone, not to die. Shen Yu hugged his arms and said easily.
Hearing him say this, Zhiying also felt that she was too nervous, she laughed embarrassedly twice, and slowly relaxed. At this time, she noticed that there was silence all around, and there was only a cold wind howling in the huge mountain pass, but there was not even half a ghost. She thought for a moment and said, "Isn't it that we haven't arrived yet, you see there's nothing here." ”
Ling Jun and Shen Yu didn't answer. The two of them, unlike Zhiying, can sense breaths that are imperceptible to humans. Shen Yu's spell is no problem, the place is right, as for why it is like this-Ling Jun pinched a sword trick and stabbed straight forward, only to hear a "bang", like the sound of something shattering.
Zhiying was wondering, and suddenly saw that the place where Ling Jun had been stabbed slowly changed: a stone slab road appeared narrowly and widely. "This is the road to the Tiger Wolf Cave Mansion. Previously, this road was blocked by enchantment and invisibility, ordinary people could not see the clues, even if they had the intention to look for it, they could not find a way, and often returned in vain, and the person who was captured disappeared, and since then there has been no news, life and death are unknown. Ling Jun explained.
Zhiying nodded, Ling Jun's words were by no means alarmist, if he hadn't met the two of them, even if he was lucky enough to find here, he would never have discovered this mystery.
Ling Jun said again: "This road is not easy to walk, I will walk in front later, hold Ying in the center, behind Shen Yu Palace, no matter what happens, don't panic, follow closely, so as not to be taken advantage of." Zhiying now admires Ling Jun very much, and has no objection to his arrangement, Shen Yu also nodded in agreement, and the three of them did not delay anymore and walked along the stone road.
For Zhiying, this is an unknown road, how long this road is, and what dangers will be encountered on the road, she has no idea. She saw that there were people protecting her before and after, and she felt a lot more at ease. She knew that the two in front of her were not only higher in cultivation than her, but also much more knowledgeable than her, and with the help of these two, it was still very promising to rescue Zhili, thinking like this, even her steps became brisk, after all, she was only a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, and troubles came and went quickly.
After walking about a pillar of incense, a fog suddenly fell in front of them, and the three of them immediately became vigilant, knowing that this fog was unusual, and it must have been a trap set by the monsters. Sure enough, as the fog became thicker and thicker, Zhiying felt a headache and chest tightness, and her breathing gradually became short, and she thought in a daze, this fog was poisonous. She clutched her sword in one hand and covered her mouth and nose with the other to stop the inhalation of the poison gas. Suddenly, a hand appeared in front of her, and Shen Yu held a pill and motioned to her. Zhiying hurriedly took the pill and swallowed it in one gulp, immediately feeling refreshed.
"This is a heart-clearing pill, which has the effect of avoiding poison and detoxifying. Shen Yu saw that Zhiying had recovered, and said to her: "This fog is not only poisonous, but also can confuse the mind, if we don't have this pill, we can only be other people's puppets when we go, and let it go." ”
Zhiying listened, and after being afraid for a while, she patted her chest and said happily: "Fortunately, you are prepared, otherwise we will definitely suffer a big loss." ”
When Shen Yu heard this, not only was he unhappy, but he also snorted coldly: "Without 'we', you will suffer a big loss, and I saved your life for Ling Jun's sake." ”
Zhiying was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that this bird couldn't understand the good words, obviously praising him for being amazing, and he choked himself with words, what kind of reason is this.
Ling Jun walked in front, knowing that the two behind him were a little bit of a small situation, but he didn't dare to be distracted, lest he be taken advantage of. If he fights in a dignified manner, he is not afraid of those demons, but it is inevitable that he will be entangled in some small tricks and take some effort. He was afraid that Shen Yu and Zhiying would fall into other people's ways, and the boat would capsize in the gutter, which was not worth it.
Ever since they had taken the Purifying Heart Pill, the fog had gradually lifted. The fog came and went so quickly that it was strange, as if someone was watching their every move in the dark. After walking for about half an hour, Ling Jun pointed to the front and said, "Look, that's their cave." ”
When Zhiying heard this, she came to the spirit, she walked two steps quickly, and looked at the building in front of her was indeed the appearance of a cave, but there were two large copper doors at the entrance of the cave, and there were torches burning on both sides, and the fire was bright and extinguished, which looked a little strange in the dark night. She walked back and forth around the entrance of the cave, and asked Ling Jun and Shen Yu with her eyes, did she break in directly or knock on the door first?
Shen Yu was dizzy by her, and pouted in disgust, only to see him roll up his sleeves and shout at the top of his voice: "Hey, open the door!"
A loud laugh came from inside the door: "Your Excellency is so courageous, since you are here, please come in." With that, the door slowly opened.
"Could there be fraud?" asked in a low voice.
"It doesn't matter if he has it or not, let's go in first. After Shen Yu finished speaking, he raised his feet and left, followed by Zhiying.
The cave is very different from what I imagined, although it is darker inside, there are torches lit on both sides, and I haven't encountered a single monster along the way, which makes people wonder if there are a large number of demons gathered here. When they came to a fork in the road, they finally met an attendant who took them to the master of the place.
"You're here. The man couldn't hear the joy or anger when he spoke, and sat there pouring himself a drink, and there were three or two attendants standing next to him, looking quiet and orderly, which was very different from the group of demons dancing wildly as ordinary people imagined.
"Did you arrest my junior sister?" asked Zhiying.
"I caught people, I didn't know why, I caught them if I wanted to. The man was drinking and answering questions very cooperatively.
"You!" Zhiying didn't expect him to be quite unreasonable, and he had nothing to say for a while.
Shen Yu rolled his eyes and blamed Zhiying for asking a stupid question. People occupy the mountain as the king, what is it to catch someone, or this girl is lucky to meet the two of them, but I am afraid that she will also get into it. He waved his hand impatiently: "What kind of cave master, for the sake of our fellow demons, you say, how can we release people?"
The cave master really paused and glanced at Shen Yu: "Oh, it turned out to be a bird." You came to my fairy cave for that little girl, and it is also a bit of a skill to be able to come in unscathed. ”
"It's so easy for us to get in, thanks to the cave master's mercy. Ling Jun said on the side.
"You are a person who understands, since you can crack the enchantment and the poisonous mist array, then I will simply withdraw the others, wouldn't it be easier for us to talk face-to-face?" The Immortal Cave Lord looked at Ling Jun: "I have everything in this cave, there should be some, there are some, it is really a happy race immortal, I had no intention of embarrassing you, but since I asked here, then I will make it clear." ”
