Chapter 103: The Cave of Evil Grudge (7)
With the sound of firewood scratching on the ground, and with the help of the light from the bonfire, Tianling and Li Jinyao took two steps closer and looked at the black lines drawn by charcoal.
The lines are crooked, and then gradually form a few simple patterns.
On the uneven floor of the cave, the ugly man painted two paintings in front of the two passages behind him.
On the left-hand side, there appears to be a scene of two villains tearing each other apart.
The two little figures were just spliced together with rough circles and lines, one large and one small, and the larger one's head was painted in a strange shape, and its body seemed to exude an eerie light.
At the back of this painting, a strange large figure is drawn and falls to the ground, and the remaining figures enter the passage on the left.
On the right-hand side, two small figures of the same size enter the passage on the right, holding torches.
At the back of the picture, two villains find a glowing jade pendant, and one of them wears it around his neck.
Finally, the images on the left and right sides are connected, and they all point to a stone platform behind them, but the stone platform is shrouded in black fog, and it is impossible to see what is on it for the time being.
These four villains are very poorly drawn, and they can only vaguely understand the meaning that the person who painted the painting wants to express.
Only two of them could enter the passage on the right to find Baoyu, and the remaining one would have to defeat the ugly man in front of him before they could enter through the passage on the left behind him.
But both paths will eventually lead in only one direction, and that is the sacrificial platform in the depths of the cavern.
When the ugly man had finished drawing this, he threw the firewood into the fire again.
He straightened his back, and his height of about two meters was like a high wall in this oppressive corridor.
Although his eyes were still blank, the strange glow that emanated from his pupils from time to time made everyone who looked at him fearful.
The man in front of him is definitely not normal, judging from the story fragment at the beginning, he should be the same as the crazy men he met before, he has been dead for more than twenty years, but now he doesn't know why he is alive again.
Whether he is controlled by others, or has gained some mysterious power to come back from the dead, it is definitely not easy to deal with.
Shapeg didn't see anything painted on the ground, shook his head a little dazedly, and asked suspiciously:
"What's wrong, what's going on, did someone write something?"
As he spoke, he also vaguely tapped Tianling's thigh with his finger, as if he wanted Tianling to tell him.
Before Tianling could make a move, a gust of yin wind blew out from the two corridors in front of him, mixed with a slight fishy smell.
Immediately after, a hoarse female voice sounded from the minds of the three of them, and there seemed to be a little excitement in the voice.
"Woman, poor woman...... I leave the choice to you, and it is up to you to decide who to enter the passage with...... You have to be careful, if you choose the wrong man, your fate ...... Hahaha! β
The voice went straight into their minds, and the three of them obviously heard it, and the ugly man, as if he had received an order from a woman, mechanically pulled out two burning firewood from the fire and handed them to Li Jinyao.
Li Jinyao reached out and took the burning firewood and fell into deep thought.
In her heart, she didn't want to choose anyone.
If she could, she really wanted to enter the corridor on the right to find the jade jade by herself, so that she could obtain the jade pendant without any risk.
With the jade pendant protection, she is no longer afraid of being hurt by the son of resentment, so that she can at least protect herself.
Unfortunately, she couldn't.
Because at the beginning, the script clearly explained the conditions for the completion of the task, and put Baoyu on the spirit of resentment, or dedicate a soul to it.
Once she chooses to go to the right passage alone to find Baoyu, then she will end up alone in the face of the spirit of resentment.
It is still unknown how powerful the Spirit of Evil is, whether it is aggressive, and what to do if it can't be dealt with by itself.
Moreover, as long as she dares to choose to leave the two of them and go away by herself, then the two people left behind will have a hostile relationship with herself, and it is better to say that they are killed here, once they survive by luck, they will inevitably stab themselves in the back at the last moment.
However, if you don't go by yourself, who is the right person to find?
When Li Jinyao hesitated, Brother Shapi, who was standing on the far right of the three of them, seemed to be a little hot by the fire in front of him, shook his thick cotton clothes, and turned his head to Tianling, who was looking at the ugly man in a daze, and grinned bitterly.
After hearing the words of the spirit of resentment, Shapi also understood a general idea, at this moment, his whole body was sweating, but it was not roasted by fire, but frightened!
Because in his opinion, no matter whether Li Jinyao chooses himself or not, his fate will not be too good.
If he didn't choose himself, he would definitely have no chance of winning when he faced the enemy in front of him alone.
And even if Li Jinyao chooses him, it doesn't mean that he is safe.
I still don't know if Li Jinyao is the son of a grudge, and even if he doesn't, he can't grab the jade pendant.
In case Li Jinyao sacrificed himself with a jade pendant at the last moment, then his fate would probably be better than being killed here.
And judging from her previous indifference to her, this woman is very likely to do this!
"Well, I think we can kill this guy first, isn't it more ......"
Before Shapeg could finish his words, a piece of wood was handed to him.
"Shut up and follow me."

"Shut up and follow me!"
Li Jinyao said a word, and without hesitation, she stuffed the firewood into Shapige's hand.
She glanced at Tianling apologetically, then grabbed Sha Pei's clothes and dragged Sha Pei, who had not yet reacted, to the passage on the right.
As the two entered the passage, the firelight illuminated the entrance to the passage, which was then consumed by darkness.
Listening to the footsteps gradually disappearing, another gust of wind blew out from the depths of the cave, and the female voice just now sounded again-
"Poor child, even if you save her, she still doesn't trust you."
The voice paused, and then continued:
"This person in front of you, I hate him to the bone, even if I have refined him into a puppet! If you still can't satisfy me, you will kill him again, as he did to me, and burn his eyes!" Burn his ears! Scald...... Oh, I forgot that he was just a remnant and couldn't speak anymore, hahahahahaha! β
The woman's hysterical laughter continued to echo in the cavern, and a prompt sound appeared in my mind at the same timeβ
Quest Updated: Follow the Spirit's request to kill the Remnant Golem to gain access to the left passage.
Reward: Two attribute points.
The cavern was quiet again, except for the crackling of firewood.
Tian Ling, who had been observing the remnant soul puppet, exhaled heavily at this time, as if he wanted to spit out all the depression in his heart.
The corners of his mouth trembled and he sneered and said, "Cheap woman." β
