Chapter 264: The River Styx (I)
At this time, Ye Sheng was stunned to notice the small door that was half shorter than his entire body, half smaller than the Wing Clan's habitat, and he subconsciously thought it was decoration. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"This door ......"
"I think this door should only be opened by the Serpent Maiden, and we'll need to perform the ritual she's doing when we come in."
As if to prove what Hara said in the next moment, the snake girl stopped talking, but the door opened, and the snake girl made a gesture of invitation to them.
Ye Sheng noticed that as they walked, the ground sloped downward, and only then did a door in front of them appear that resembled a gap.
The terrain was clearly not the same as what they had seen before, but more deceptive.
"Silent Lord Night...... Eugene followed behind with some hesitation, ahead of him was the residence of the snake girl, if something went wrong in the middle, it would undoubtedly put the entire convoy in danger.
"Let's go inside."
Before Ye Sheng could speak, Yuan Ai Hao replied first, and at the same time stepped forward.
It was certainly impossible for the convoy to enter the cramped building with people, so all the members of the guard behind them untied the horses from the vehicles, and the snake girl silently helped them hold the horses, and then stayed where they were, waiting for them to enter.
"Silk, silk, silk." I don't know if it's an illusion or not, but after stepping into the yellow-brown building here, the sound of the snake core first came to their ears.
"Echo." Hara Ehaze turned sideways and explained to Ye Sheng and the people after him.
The interior of the building, like all the caves they had entered, was damp and cold, with shallow puddles forming on the ground under their feet.
"Shall we go on our own?" The snake woman is gone, but they still have to keep going.
Hara replied with a bow, "Next, we should go and meet the patriarch of the snake girl here." ā
"Patriarch?" Eugene managed to catch up from behind, "Then aren't we going to see this very dangerous woman?" ā
I think that the words just relayed by Hara Ai Haze had a great impact on Eugene, and to this day, Eugene is still prejudiced against Medusa's patriarch.
As he spoke, several people had gone to a completely different place, and the interior that could be seen was no longer dark, and suddenly a faint glow flickered, although at this moment it felt very bright, but in the next moment it was found that this was not a bright hall, just an illusion caused by the darkness in which they were originally located.
"Human, watch your words." An obscure but very powerful female voice sounded from their ears, although the sentence was very standard, it gave Ye Sheng an awkward feeling for some reason, "I heard that you are Your Excellency the University Scholar, and the Snake Girl Clan welcomes your arrival very much." ā
What Ye Sheng didn't expect was that in this alien Medusa, he knew that he existed.
It's just that at this time, he doesn't feel that this is an honor, on the contrary, the patriarch of the snake girl can be said to have come prepared, and what he should ask for is not the other guardians in the team, but himself.
Eugene felt embarrassed for a moment when he was bumped into by the person who said bad things about others, but after seeing the patriarch of Medusa, he felt his heart flutter.
She didn't have an inch on her body, but she had black hair that was curled up and smooth like seaweed to her waist, which just covered most of her seductive figure, and the white skin that loomed in it, coupled with the cold expression on her sultry and charming face, was enough to make ordinary people fascinated.
"Worthy of the snake girl." When he came back to his senses, he noticed that the night silence and gray mist in front of him were all serious, but those guards did not come back to their senses, and they looked at the beautiful snake with fascinated expressions, as if they were fascinated, "Ahem." ā
"Ahem." Eugene coughed several times, and the guards finally shifted their eyes from the Medusa patriarch somewhere else.
"I'm sorry, my partner just said something rude to you." Of course, Ye Sheng noticed the demeanor of the NPC behind, but the most important thing for him at this time was what the snake female patriarch in front of him wanted to do.
It's not just a problem for him, it's an opportunity.
Have you heard that NPCs that post quests don't give rewards? Anyway, Ye Sheng hadn't heard of it.
"It's okay." The originally cold expression dissolved slightly, showing a hint of a smile, "From various rumors and real cases, our snake girl is indeed very dangerous to you humans. ā
Confessing this at this time, Ye Sheng felt a chill in his heart.
Although they were not seen through by the Medusa in front of them, it can be understood from the implicit meaning of this sentence that this Medusa patriarch not only does not care about their life or death, but also threatens him to cooperate with her obediently, otherwise those rumors and cases will happen to them.
Ye Sheng snorted lightly: "If you are indeed dangerous, how can we see you so safely?" ā
"What's more, we're all useful to you."
When Ye Sheng said this, Medusa giggled: "Anthropologist, you really know how to speak." ā
During the time of conversation, Ye Sheng had a glance at the entire internal environment.
The ground was still the same as the one I had seen before, like the ground of an ordinary cave, and the ground could feel wet, and small insects and lizards could be seen crawling on it, which surprised several people who thought it must be a clean and tidy room.
There was only one table made of stone in the entire space, which was a block taller than their height, and in the center was a stone collapse that was also made of stone, but covered with a layer of soft yellow woven fabric, on which lay the bewitching Medusa patriarch.
In addition to these two things, there is also the form of the snake-like sculpture seen at the entrance of the snake people's habitat, but here it is engraved on the inner wall in the form of a picture, which accounts for about one-fifth of the entire inner wall, and it is difficult for people not to pay attention to it.
Different from the habitat of the Wing Clan, the residence of this snake matriarch has a surprisingly small number of furnishings, and you can see the difference between the two races in the leopard.
In a sense, the living conditions of human beings have affected a lot of people, just like the Wing Clan, with whom the patriarch of the Wing Clan has been carrying out his daily life according to human beings at this time.
And the Medusa patriarch in front of him obviously does not have a deep deal with humans, or does not recognize the habits of human life at all.
The customs between the races are different, and this is also where contradictions can arise, so Ye Sheng secretly wondered that he should be careful when he speaks.
For them, on the other party's territory, they can't just offend this patriarch.
After a moment, she restrained her smile, but she was no longer cold at the beginning: "If you want to go to the Goatman's Lua High Slope, I can help you, but what you promised to do before must also be done for me first." ā
Ye Sheng listened to what this Medusa patriarch said, but he couldn't help but think of the previous Wing Clan patriarch in his heart.
The patriarchs of these ethnic groups all know the lingua franca of mankind, is it because when their strength reaches a certain height, it will make it easier to learn the language?
This is not unfounded, just as most NPC scholars only pass the test of the Scholar's House when their mage level is promoted to the third rank.
To a certain extent, the improvement of strength is indeed very helpful to the improvement of people in all aspects.
While Ye Sheng was distracted by him, Patriarch Medusa continued: "You come with me alone. ā
There is no doubt that she said this to Ye Sheng, because she did not put anyone other than Ye Sheng in her eyes from beginning to end.
Ye Sheng frowned: "Only one person?" ā
The snake matriarch glanced at the people around her, "I don't think this group of people can help me in any way. ā
If it weren't for the fact that they knew that it was the Medusa patriarch in front of them, they probably couldn't help but want to do it.
Even in a big city like the Silver Capital, the strength of the second order is the backbone, and it seems to be insignificant in her tone at this time, which is changed to a person with a little self-esteem who can't stand being said like this.
Fortunately, Eugene gestured to them with his eyes, nodded the silence of the night, and whispered: "What she needs is a university scholar, not us." ā
"I just need to take her with me, and sometimes I need her help."
Ye Sheng didn't hesitate to take Yuan Huihao's hand and show his attitude.
If Hara didn't follow him, he wouldn't have followed her.
The snake girl looked at the actions he made, and sure enough, she understood seven or eight points, showing a breathtaking smile on the surface, but she laughed disdainfully in her heart.
She has really seen a lot of human couples, human men are just superficial animals who only look at appearances, and the so-called friendship can quickly disintegrate in the face of certain temptations.
The patriarch had seen too much, but he had no intention of stopping it, after all, there was still a request and the silence of the night, so why bother to expose it.
"Okay, then you two come with me."
However, she turned her head and twisted her slender waist, and walked directly in front of the inner wall of the picture that Ye Sheng had seen before, which occupied a lot of space.
The two looked at each other quizzically, and continued to watch her next move.
The Medusa patriarch pressed his long, white hand against the inner wall, and then the serpentine drawing on the inner wall suddenly rippled as if it had been stirred into the water, and the drawing became very abstract.
"This ......"
Eugene and the guards after him were stunned by this hand, they had never seen anything like it.
And Ye Sheng is much calmer, compared to the inheritance secret realm, in fact, the changes in front of him are just pediatrics.
Next, the Medusa patriarch first began to melt into the picture from his hand, and then the whole person wore it. (To be continued.) )
