Chapter 172: Night Road
[In this situation where we can't see anything, I think we should not walk around, it is better to deal with it for one night under the tree here.] 】
Liu Xianyu, based on the experience along the way, estimated that walking in the dark would definitely not be a good thing, so he opened his mouth and proposed.
[It's fine for just one night, but Captain Salty, why do I think it's getting colder and colder here since it gets dark.] 】
[Getting cold? Isn't it normal to get cold after dark? 】
[No, meow, it's getting cold too fast.] 】
The ears on the top of Tachibana's head moved, and Jade said.
[Even if the temperature drops after the sun goes down in the wild, it will drop little by little, except for rainy days, it usually drops at a fixed rate overnight, but the temperature here drops too fast, and if it continues at this rate, it will soon reach the winter temperature. 】
Jade shuddered as she hugged her shoulders.
After listening to Jade's explanation, Liu Xianyu finally understood, if Jade and Tangerine's feelings were not wrong, then they couldn't continue to waste time here now, and now that everyone couldn't use magic, the cold would likely become a fatal threat to them.
[Remember, wait a minute, no matter what happens, never let go of your hand!] 】
In order to prevent the unreliable jadeite from messing up, Liu Xianyu also deliberately told the jadeite in front of him again.
[In this case, we must get out of here quickly and find a place to escape the cold, fortunately Tachibana and I can still see things, so let's line up and move forward!] 】
In this way, after Liu Xianyu broke off, the orange took the head, and the four people walked into the woods on the mountainside under the leadership of the orange, and the four of them walked hand in hand for almost ten minutes, and there was no road under their feet, all of which were grass with a deep foot and a shallow foot.
Puff –
Soft and slippery to the touch, Jade felt like she was stepping on something.
[Wait a minute, Captain Salted Fish, I really want to step on something, soft and sticky, could it be-]
Jade couldn't bear to say it halfway through her words, and Liu Xianyu knew what she was thinking when she heard her tone.
[Don't worry, it's definitely not Xiang.] 】
Don't say it! 】
Jade grabbed Liu Xianyu's hand and shook it vigorously to show her dissatisfaction, and then she suddenly bumped into the back of Ikateris in front of her.
[Tellis-chan, why did you stop?] 】
Ikatris, who also couldn't see anything with the Emerald, spoke:
[It's not me, it's Tachibana who has stopped.] 】
[What meow did Cuicui step on? Needs to check it out. 】
Tangerine's voice was still as calm as usual, and it lacked the ups and downs of tone, and there was no nervousness at all.
[Check?] How can I check it, I can't see anything, why don't you take a look at it for me, Captain Saltyfish? 】
[I'll check.] 】
As soon as Jade finished speaking, she felt a small palm grab her calf, and Tangerine lifted Jade's shoes to observe it for a moment, and then nodded in conviction.
[It is the feces of animals.] 】
Hearing Tachibana's conclusion, Ikateris sighed.
[Alas, it seems that we are not the only ones living in this space, we must be more vigilant, and now the four of us together may not have the strength of advanced professionals. 】
Whoop -
A gust of cold wind blew through the surrounding leaves, and the four of them shivered in unison, especially Jade, who was still wearing a short skirt and over-the-knee socks on her lower body, she couldn't help but pull down the hem of her skirt.
[It's so cold~ I'll get sick if I go on like this, how long will it take us to find a place to escape the cold? 】
[I don't know, but we can track down the owner of the feces, and the animals must have their own homes.] 】
[In other words, if we find it, will we be safe?] 】
Tachibana returned to the front of the group, taking a closer look at the grass around the jade, then changing direction.
[The premise is that we can beat him meow, judging from the traces, the owner of the feces is undoubtedly a large carnivore, and it may also be a monster.] 】
Tangerine's words poured a basin of cold water on Liu Xianyu.
[But I finally have a clear goal, let's do it.] 】
Icatelis tried to cheer up a few people, although she has always been very repulsive, but manipulating other people's emotions in the process of the priest assessment is also part of the assessment, and Ikatris, who successfully passed the assessment, naturally knows how to manipulate people's hearts, but she never uses it.
[Thelisa is right, at least now we have a clear goal, and we have to improve compared to before.] 】
Liu Xianyu thought about it for a while and felt that what Thelyss said was very reasonable.
In this way, the four of them groped and walked for more than an hour under the leadership of Tangerine, and the temperature here had changed from a slight cool in the evening to a shivering low temperature, and the jade, who had the worst physical fitness, had already clinged to Ikatelis's back, rubbing her body temperature like a spirit behind her.
[It's so strange, why is Teris-chan's body still warm, obviously my limbs are frozen and stiff. 】
Jade felt the body temperature of Theris, coming through her clothes in front of her
said.
[I guess it's because I exercise regularly.] 】
Ikatriis is also a little strange, although the three people, including Liu Xianyu, said that the temperature here is getting colder and colder, and it is beginning to be unbearable, but she does not feel this way, every time the cold wind blows and briefly takes away her body temperature, a warm current will rise from her body, but considering the dilemma faced by the three teammates now, she thinks it is not a good time to analyze this problem.
[Found it!] 】
Tachibana, who was walking in the front, suddenly stopped, she raised her head to look at a dark cavern fifty meters away, vigilantly groping up and down for the few remaining arrows in her hand.
Liu Xianyu and Tangerine glanced at each other, then changed the formation, protected Jade and Ikatris, and walked towards the cave not far away step by step, about ten meters later, Liu Xianyu was finally able to vaguely see the cave that Tangerine said, he tied the arm guards of both hands to his fist and prepared to use it as a weapon.
However, when the four of them entered the cave, they found that there were no enemies they expected.
Shake~
Jade trembled while hiding behind Liu Xianyu and whispered:
[Captain Salted Fish, how about it, if you think you can't beat it, let's run. 】
[Look at your cowardice, there is nothing in the cave at all, maybe the owner of the cave has gone out and has not returned. 】
Liu Xianyu and Tangerine looked at the cave as best they could, answering the question It looked like an ordinary cave, and there were a lot of hay and bones of unknown creatures scattered on the ground, and every bone was eaten clean without a trace of residue.
[It's not a good thing, if it's going out to hunt, it means that the enemy is used to the night here.] 】
Tachibana said as she looked around the cave, then poked her head out to look around and untied the rope that had been wrapped around her waist.
[The first move must win, prepare a trap meow! ] 】
