Chapter 45: Mission Accomplished

Along the flat cave, An Ran and the three climbed all the way up, and the feeling of vibration became more and more intense.

"Exit!"

An Ran saw the bright light at the exit of the flat cave and shouted for Wang Shengli and Xia Bing to see. He knows that people are exhausted and need encouragement, and the best way to encourage them is to hope.

At this moment, the light of the exit is their greatest hope.

Seeing hope, the three of them climbed out of the cave with all their might. After staying in the underground world for a long time, my eyes hurt when I met the sunlight. The three of them stopped at the entrance of the cave and closed their eyes to get used to the sunlight.

After getting used to the light, An Ran opened his eyes and found that he had returned to the huge valley in front of the falling dragon's mouth.

"It turns out that the exit of the lizardman's lair is here!"

An Ran couldn't help but think that when they came, one of Luo Chen's companions had a leg broken by the lizardman. Thankfully, they attracted the lizardmen, otherwise they would have encountered them in the valley.

If that were the case, they would most likely return and there would be no way to know the truth.

However, this truth is indeed a bit cruel to Xia Bing.

After coming out of the flat hole, Xia Bing knelt at the entrance of the cave, tears like a beaded curtain with broken threads, so that An Ran and Wang Shengli didn't know how to be safe.

The pain of bereavement can only be experienced by those who are in it, and the safety of others always pales in comparison.

An Ran thought that letting her cry might be more effective than a thousand words.

"Enron ......"

After a pause, Wang Shengli called An Ran, his expression a little twisted. The backpack had been thrown away when he climbed up, and he unzipped the pocket of his jacket and carefully took out the phoenix brocade box.

"When did you put it in your pocket?" Enron was taken aback.

At that time, the phoenix brocade box was still very hot, and An Ran thought that Wang Shengli didn't take it, but he didn't expect this kid to be dead-eyed, and finally brought it out.

Wang Shengli smiled bitterly and said: "This thing is a treasure, I won't hide it from you, I took the task of Tianqinglou, and the target is this phoenix pattern brocade box." ”

"Actually, I already knew that the phoenix pattern brocade box inside was inside, and participating in this test was just a disguise, mainly to hide my identity. Otherwise, if the Adventure Alliance knew that I was from Azure Tower, and if I came here, they would definitely send someone to investigate me. ”

In fact, before Luo Chen said Wang Shengli's identity, An Ran had already guessed that he didn't really want to join the Adventure Alliance.

Wang Shengli felt a little guilty and said, "I'm sorry! ”

An Ran waved his hand and said, "Everyone has their own ambitions, in fact, do you think I really want to join the Adventure Alliance so much?" It's not because I have an unknown substance in my body that I have to do this. ”

Hearing An Ran's relaxed tone, Wang Shengli looked even more guilty, and muttered: "Then do you know that I originally wanted to kill you below after I got the things?" ”

An Ran was stunned.

Wang Shengli hurriedly said: "But I, Wang Shengli, am not a wolf-hearted person, you saved me in the broken temple, and I will never be able to do anything to you." ”

When An Ran heard this, he smiled helplessly and said: "Okay, it's all over, we can be regarded as living and dying together, even if we can't become brothers, we won't become enemies, right?" Anyway, the phoenix brocade box is not my task, you take it and go back to hand in the task! ”

An Ran looked around and whispered, "While the people from the Adventure Alliance haven't come yet, you can leave quickly!" ”

Wang Shengli looked at An Ran deeply and asked, "Don't you want the phoenix pattern brocade box?" I don't know what secrets this thing holds, but it's priceless just as an artifact. ”

"So what?" An Ran lowered his eyebrows and looked at the phoenix pattern brocade box, sighed and said: "You said that it is a priceless treasure, I estimate that if I really hand it over, I will send a pennant, it is better for you to take it more useful." ”

"However, I'm very curious, what does this phoenix-patterned brocade box have to do with the immortal gate mentioned in the fresco of the Vermilion Bird King!"

Wang Shengli grinned: "I don't know yet, when I crack the secret, I will tell you!" ”

An Ran also smiled: "Then it's decided!" ”

Turning around and looking at Xia Bing again, Wang Shengli sighed and said solemnly: "No matter what situation happens in the future, I, Wang Shengli, will never make a move on you and Xia Bing." ”

An Ran didn't say anything, just smiled and didn't say anything.

Then Wang Shengli hurriedly left the valley, and his figure disappeared into the dense forest.

Not long after Wang Shengli left, a loud rumbling sound sounded in An Ran's ears, coming from the direction of the falling dragon's mouth. Turning his head, the mountains on both sides of the Falling Dragon Pass Canyon collapsed, and in a blink of an eye, the mountains disappeared from An Ran's sight.

An Ran was not surprised by this, because the depths of the underground here were empty, and now that the huge underground palace had collapsed, the mountains on the ground would naturally collapse.

As the huge dungeon collapsed, a puff of smoke erupted from the flat exit, because the hole was connected to the dungeon.

An Ran went over to help Xia Bing up and said, "Okay, let's go, we can go back to the town before dark." ”

People can't be resurrected after death, Xia Bing walked back with An Ran with grief.

But as he was walking, An Ran suddenly felt a chill down his spine, and a feeling of being stared at his back suddenly hit. He jerked his head back, but saw nothing.

How so?

An Ran was horrified in his heart, what happened fifty years ago, and the puzzles in Xia Long's notes have been solved, and the secret of the falling dragon's mouth has also been solved, why do you still feel this way?

He always thought that Xia Long was referring to the lizardman behind the reminder in his notes. But now, even though there is no lizardman, he still feels like he is being stared at, which is creepy.

Isn't Xia Long referring to lizardmen?

It's a pity that now that Xia Long is dead, there is no way to verify it.

"What's wrong?" Xia Bing looked at An Ran puzzled.

"It's okay, let's go!"

An Ran didn't explain, and quickly left the valley with Xia Bing, hurrying slowly, and finally returned to the town before sunset.

Passing by the food stall opened by the robber, I saw that the gate was closed, and the words "Transfer of the Storefront" were still posted on it.

The two arrive at the town's hostel, ready to rest for the night before contacting the Adventure League.

The innkeeper smiled when he saw the two of them: "Congratulations to the two of you for completing the task!" ”

An Ran and Xia Bing were both stunned, how did the owner of this inn know what they were here for? And looking at his cheap smile, it seems that he knows the identities of An Ran and Xia Bing from beginning to end, just pretending to be passers-by.

"You're from the Adventure League?" An Ran asked.

The innkeeper just smiled and didn't answer, but by looking at his expression, he knew that he was from the Adventure Alliance.

Soon the innkeeper looked suspicious, looked out the door, seemed to be looking for something, and asked, "Just the two of you?" Aren't you three? ”

An Ran chuckled in his heart, thinking that he had forgotten to tell Xia Bing about Wang Shengli. If his lie is exposed by Xia Bing, it will definitely arouse suspicion.

Who thought that Xia Bing didn't think about it, and said directly: "We were separated from him in the dungeon, and now that the dungeon has collapsed, I'm afraid he has ......."

An Ran twitched the corners of his eyes after hearing this, thinking that this woman was telling a lie, and she really didn't blink her eyelids.

Talent!

But that's fine, it's finally fooled.

"Come with me, the alliance's medical team will arrive tomorrow morning, you can rest here first."

The innkeeper immediately took the two upstairs.

Before going upstairs, An Ran looked in the direction of Broken Dragon Mountain, thinking that he didn't know if Wang Shengli had gone out.
