Chapter 53: The Cave
The further down the cave became, the cavern became wider, surrounded by ancient vines and grass, the humidity was thick, the cold smell spread, and the air was filled with the smell of corruption.
The intricate road is like a labyrinth. But Jiang Li relied on his powerful perception to perceive the location of the Black Mountain Monster.
Gradually, the cave became drier and drier, and Jiang Li clearly felt that the Black Mountain Monster was not far ahead. So he slowed down, collected the breath of his whole body, and quietly leaned forward.
Suddenly, a weak female voice sounded, Jiang Li's heart tightened, and he sped up his speed.
Soon, there was a rustling sound ahead, like something crawling by. Jiang Li disappeared in the corner of the cave wall, staring intently ahead.
At this time, he had already walked to the end of the cave, and in front of him was a small nest, with a lot of moss on the cave wall of the nest, and the ancient vines that fell from nowhere covered the entire nest.
Because of the light, Jiang Li couldn't see Ruoxi's specific location clearly at the moment.
"Go away, go away!"
A familiar voice rang out, drifting through the air. At this moment, he was extremely weak. Jiang Li moved his body and followed the voice to look at the other side of the empty lair, and suddenly saw the figures of the Black Mountain Monster and Ruoxi.
At this moment, I saw the black mountain monster squatting in front of Ruoxi, and its ugly face was only a few inches away from Ruoxi's face, and from time to time it opened its mouth and spit out a disgusting smell.
"Fuck off, you ugly monster. Ruoxi screamed in horror.
"Fortunately, Ruoxi is okay now. Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief. If Ruoxi had something, Jiang Li would never forgive himself in this life.
Ahead, the black mountain monster seemed to be about to make a move on its prey, it slowly approached Ruoxi's body with its thin claws, and at the same time brought its ugly face close to Ruoxi, sniffing at her face, its mouth was about to be next to Ruoxi.
"Jie Ji ......"
The voice of the Black Mountain Monster contained extreme excitement, and it sniffed Ruoxi's body wildly, which was very enjoyable.
It is not difficult for Jiang Li to imagine what kind of ordeal Ruoxi would suffer if he didn't find the lair of this black mountain monster today.
The light in this nest is too dim, and if you make a rash move, you may hurt Ruoxi. And what if the Black Mountain Monster is provoked, it threatens Ruoxi as a hostage.
Jiang Li knew very well that these mountain spirits and mountain monsters were cunning and cruel by nature.
"I have to think of a way to lure this black mountain monster out of the cave, so that I can use it. Jiang Li was not impulsive, but calmed down and thought.
"There it is!"
Jiang Li found a piece of gravel from the edge of the cave wall, held it in his hand, and threw it towards the empty other side of the lair. The gravel landed with a thud.
The black mountain monster immediately caught the sound of the gravel landing, and a flash appeared where the gravel landed.
Jiang Li's eyes flashed.
"Yes, now. Lingbo's phantom step was used to the extreme, and he came to Ruoxi's side with one breath.
He picked up Ruoxi and ran out of the cave. His speed was so fast that he even made a sound of breaking the air, and he was away from the lair in a few breaths.
Boom, Boom, Black Mountain Strange Roar.
Naturally, it heard the movement for the first time. In the blink of an eye, he found that his prey was gone, how could it not be angry.
The Black Mountain Monster roared and rushed straight in Jiang Li's direction.
Ruoxi was first taken aback by this sudden change, and then looked at Jiang Li who was holding her, her eyes were full of tears.
"Woo, Brother Jiang Li, I thought I would never see you again. She sobbed softly in Jiang Li's arms, tears wetting her cheeks, and she looked even more touching at this time.
"Jie Ji ......" The Black Mountain Monster chased after him.
"Brother Jiang Li, that monster has chased after you, don't worry about Ruoxi, that monster is too terrifying. Ruoxi struggled in Jiang Li's arms, trying to break free from Jiang Li's arms.
Jiang Li's heart warmed, this girl was still thinking about herself everywhere at the most critical juncture.
"I'm still afraid that it won't catch up!" Jiang Li looked at the black mountain monster behind him, a cold glint appeared in his eyes, and that gaze was more terrifying than a demon beast.
The Black Mountain Monster roared behind Jiang Li, as if glass was rubbing against each other, extremely harsh and ugly. The sound of breaking the sky approached from behind, getting closer and closer.
Ahead, the light could be faintly seen, and it was not far from the entrance of the cave. Jiang Li was overjoyed in his heart, but at this time, the Black Mountain Monster had already chased behind him, and Jiang Li felt an extremely dangerous signal.
He didn't have time to think about it, so he paused and turned sideways as fast as he could.
The voice of breaking the sky hit, and vaguely Jiang Li saw the dim air above his head slashing through a crimson blade light, as if it was about to cut through the air.
"It's so dangerous," Jiang Li said secretly in his heart.
Jiang Li didn't stop, flickering step by step, bringing up a trail of afterimages. It took a few breaths to reach the outside of the cave.
However, the speed of the Black Mountain Monster was faster, after all, Jiang Li was still holding Ruoxi in his hand.
"......"
I don't know where the Black Mountain Monster jumped out and blocked in front of Jiang Li and Ruoxi. His face was covered with hideous colors.
Jiang Li gently put Ruoxi down and slowly summoned the pitch-black iron sword.
"Ruoxi, you go to the side first and hide, and go first when necessary. Jiang Li looked at the Black Mountain Monster at this time, and killing intent flashed on his face.
"Brother Jiang Li, you have to be careful, but Ruoxi won't escape first. Ruoxi's eyes flashed with determination.
Ruoxi understands that with her current state, she can only drag Jiang Li down here. So she didn't say anything more, and hid obediently.
Immovable as a mountain, moving as thunder.
Jiang Li snorted and struck first, the pitch-black iron sword in his hand slashed and slashed, and the momentum sank.
The gray sword slashed out, and at the same time, his whole body quickly rushed towards the black mountain monster. The speed was so fast that it even brought a trailing afterimage in the air.
"Bell, bell!
A sound like a metal collision sounded, and the gray sword that Jiang Li slashed out was blocked by something, bursting out with a burst of sparks.
Jiang Li saw that the Black Mountain Monster stretched out one arm, and the thin claws were as indestructible as Xuantie, completely blocking his gray sword.
He suddenly remembered that when he first fled outside the cave, he saw several red rays of light, which were the claws of the black mountain monster.
Jiang Li felt a little scared if he was hit by the red claws of the Black Mountain Monster in the cave. I'm afraid I'll die immediately. Fortunately, his perception was strong enough, and he narrowly avoided that blow.
However, Jiang Li is now full of anger and fighting spirit! If it weren't for the fact that he had arrived, Ruoxi would not have known what kind of suffering and pain he would have suffered.
