Chapter 005: The Princess of the Demon Phoenix Clan
Three years ago, the royal enclosure was a thousand-year-old ancient pond.
When Yanyu accidentally slipped into the thousand-year-old pond with the elk because of the capture of the elk, he only felt that the surroundings were dark, and his whole body was like falling into an ice cave, and he froze instantly!
I could only watch myself and the elk beside me, which was also immobile, sink down quickly.
During this time, Yanyu tried to struggle, but to no avail.
Just when she was worried that she and the elk were about to drown in this thousand-year-old pool, she was surprised to find that she didn't feel any choking in the water.
Even the elk's eyes were wide open, looking around, and it didn't look like it was about to drown.
It was as if they had not sunk into the ancient pool, but had fallen from the sky, and the next thing they had to worry about was not drowning, but falling to their deaths.
Since Yanyu sank with her back to the depths of the ancient pool, she had no way of knowing when she would fall to the bottom of the ancient pool and fall to pieces.
The feeling of helplessness waiting for death is really torturous, and it also makes Yanyu regret it, speaking in her heart, she has always been afraid of heaven and earth, she felt scared for the first time, and she was really reluctant to die like this.
At that moment, she especially missed the feeling of being coquettish in her mother's arms in the past, because since she was a child, only her mother was the one who really cared about her.
Everyone else is just being kind to her on the surface because of her noble status as a future princess.
I don't know how long it took, but when I closed my eyes in the tormented smoke and rain, not wanting to see myself fall to pieces, I suddenly felt like I had landed on a pile of surprisingly warm and soft aquatic plants.
When Yanyu opened his eyes curiously, he found that the surroundings were no longer dim, as if he had fallen into a sea of fire, and the original feeling of freezing his whole body was instantly gone, not only did his body regain his freedom again, but he also felt extremely warm and comfortable.
As Yanyu slowly stood up in confusion and looked around, she found herself in a warm cavern that emitted a mysterious fire, and the ground was covered with strange aquatic plants like flames.
This cave doesn't look big, it's only ten zhang in circumference, but there is an extremely deep passage, and there is no end in sight, so Yanyu doesn't know where this cave leads.
And the elk beside her stood stupidly, looking around in horror and irritability, not daring to move, as if fearing that if she moved a little, she would be swallowed up by the flames and aquatic plants under her feet and turned to ashes.
However, the careful smoke and rain noticed that a bleeding wound on the elk's leg actually healed quickly the moment the fire and water weeds crossed!
Obviously, the fires and aquatic plants in this cave are anything but ordinary.
Yanyu instinctively reached out and gently stroked the elk's back, and comforted softly: "Don't be afraid, little elk, with Miss Ben here, you will never be hurt." It was Miss Ben who caused you to fall into Gutan before, I'm really sorry. Don't worry, since we didn't fall to our deaths, Miss Ben will do everything she can to get you out of here alive. ”
The elk seemed to understand Yanyu's words, and he was no longer afraid, and rubbed Yanyu's hand with his head affectionately, staring at Yanyu with his eyes, not as irritable as before.
After calming the elk, Smoke and Rain began to take a closer look at the seemingly warm, but palpitating cave.
She wondered why she and the elk had fallen into the ancient pool, and instead of drowning, they had come to this mysterious cave that seemed to burn all year round.
As far as she knew, although no one dared to approach this thousand-year-old pond since ancient times, there were still some bold people or beasts that had stumbled into it, but they were never seen alive again.
In other words, it is very likely that these people or beasts have survived in this cave in the depths of the ancient pond, just like her and the elk at this moment.
So are these people and beasts trapped in this cavern forever?
Or was it finally turned to ashes by these strange flames and aquatic plants?
Yanyu really wanted to understand all this, because it was a matter of life and death for her and the elk beside her.
If she could find other living people or beasts in this deep cavern, then she would have a chance to live.
As long as she can live, she has the confidence to leave here with the elk.
"Child, my ...... Kid, you're finally ...... Is it coming? Child...... Come...... Come to my grandmother ......."
Just as Yanyu looked around and fell into deep thought, an extremely old mother-in-law's voice came intermittently from the depths of the passage.
Because the cave was extremely quiet, even though the sudden call was faint, it was still very clear in the ears of the smoke and rain.
"Grandmother? How is this possible? ”
Yanyu shouted in shock.
In Yanyu's memory, her grandmother died when she was five years old, how could she be trapped in this cave?
And the voice was extremely unfamiliar, not the voice of her grandmother that she remembered when she was a child.
It's just that Yanyu feels that this voice is inexplicably familiar, as if it is really her long-lost relatives calling her.
So she decided to follow the sound and find out.
Listening to the call of his mother-in-law, and the sound of Yanyu's shock, the elk looked nervously into the depths of the cave again, and instinctively hid behind Yanyu, trembling all over.
"Don't be afraid, little elk, no one can hurt you with Miss Ben. Since Miss Ben's grandmother is calling, then you can accompany Miss Ben to take a look. ”
Yanyu turned around and stroked the elk's head, and said softly.
After saying that, he walked into the depths of the cave without hesitation.
The elk behind her hesitated slightly, but cautiously followed.
"Kid...... Come...... Come to Grandmother...... You know? Child, grandmother has been waiting for you for more than 10,000 years...... I've finally got you here......"
As the smoke and rain and the elk gradually walked into the depths of the narrow and deep cave, the old woman's voice became more and more excited.
"More than 10,000 years? My grandmother passed away when I was five years old, so how could she have waited for me for more than 10,000 years? Could it be that this mother-in-law recognized the wrong person? Or maybe you're trying to lure me in? Hey, I can't care so much, won't I know when I see my mother-in-law and ask clearly? I believe that even if she recognizes the wrong person, she won't hurt me and the elk, right? If this mother-in-law has the intention of harming me, she can just drown me just now, there is no need to seduce me in one more move, right? Maybe when I see her, the old man will tell me how to get out of here. Well! That's it! Get out! ”
Yanyu stopped and muttered in surprise.
Although she didn't know the bottom of her heart, Yanyu had always been bold and reckless, and she decided to move on, because she knew that she had no choice.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the smoke and rain finally came to the deepest part of this deep cavern.
It was a cave that was also overgrown with flames and water plants, but this cave was much larger, almost a thousand feet in circumference.
During this time, the mother-in-law kept calling her, and her voice became more and more excited, and even became choked up at the end.
When Yanyu saw a huge demon phoenix lying in the deepest part of the huge cave in front of him, he was also dumbfounded!
Because the huge demon phoenix that looked dying was hundreds of feet long, so that she was like an ant in front of this demon phoenix!
Even the eyes of the demon phoenix's huge head hanging on the ground are more than ten zhang in size!
At this moment, the Demon Phoenix's eyes, which were almost narrowed into a slit, opened with difficulty, and he was looking at the smoke and rain on the spot.
Maybe it was because the demon phoenix was too excited to see Yanyu, and Yanyu clearly saw that a huge tear of the demon phoenix slipped from the corner of his eye, and when it fell on the fire aquatic plants on the ground, a small piece of fire aquatic plants was instantly extinguished.
With the extinguishing of the fire and aquatic plants, a black mist spreads, and there is a hint of death, which is intimidating.
The elk was once again so frightened that it crawled behind the smoke and rain, and trembled violently.
Although the demon phoenix on the verge of death in front of him was huge, Yan Yu could see that the body of this demon phoenix had been shattered, as if the skeleton in the body had been hollowed out.
Yanyu's intuition told her that the demon phoenix in front of her shouldn't live long.
"Oh my God! Such a big magic phoenix! It seems that the ancient legend turned out to be true! But didn't the ancient legend say that the demon phoenix was dead? And why is it so excited to see me? And why did I feel so close to it when I saw it for the first time, like it was really my grandmother? What the hell is going on? ”
Yanyu looked at the huge demon phoenix not far away, as well as the black mist produced after the fire and aquatic plants were extinguished, and couldn't help but sigh in a low voice.
Yanyu thought that her voice was very small, and the huge demon phoenix in front of her should not be able to hear it, but what happened next surprised her!
I saw that the body in front of him was incomplete, and the demon phoenix, who was almost dying, used all his strength to stand up.
And the body began to shrink slowly, not only that, but also a little bit of transformation, from a huge demon phoenix gradually transformed into a white-haired old woman.
It's just that this old woman is skinny, her eye sockets are deep, and she also looks dying.
After completely transforming into an old woman, she took a few steps forward with difficulty, then stopped, coughed violently for a while, and then raised her head to look at Yanyu and said: "Child, I am indeed the demon phoenix in ancient legends, although I was already dying, but my wish was not fulfilled, so I relied on burning bones and blood to barely live for 10,000 more years." Ahem......"
After bending over and coughing for a while, the old woman continued: "Child, what I want to do is to see you one last time, activate the Demon Phoenix bloodline in your body, and entrust the people of our Demon Phoenix Empire to you, so that I can die with peace of mind. The reason why you feel cordial when you first see me is because you have the purest royal blood of our Demon Phoenix Clan flowing in your body, and you are the only princess of our Demon Phoenix Clan who is qualified to inherit the throne, and you are also my own granddaughter. Ahem...... Come, child, grandmother really can't walk, can you come to grandmother and let grandmother take a good look at you? By the way, I will also tell you the mystery of your background. ”
After listening to the words of the old woman in front of her, and seeing the old woman looking at her lovingly, Yanyu couldn't help but have a sour nose, and couldn't help but rush towards the old woman......
