Chapter Eighty-Four: The Cliff Cave
"Yikes! Yikes! The little thing slipped in through the window early in the morning, screaming in Ah Li's ear, and was almost thrown out by Yuan Lizhi with a black face, but fortunately Ah Li woke up in time.
She was so busy all this time that she forgot about this little thing. Since the last time I came to Nanguan, I haven't seen a trace, and I don't know what I'm doing, I feel like I'm busier than her......
"Where did you go to waste, little ancestor?"
Ya Ya didn't answer, just jumped out of bed and slipped out, and then hurriedly dragged something through the crack in the door.
Short, dry vines with dense thorns.
Tomb Blood Vine. Something I saw last time in Nishiyama.
Ah Li sat up suddenly: "Where did you get it?"
Ya Ya tilted her head and looked at her for a long time, but Ah Li understood what it meant—this was for her to see. It is estimated that what is seen is not in the same category as its ability to describe, and it is difficult to translate. Ah Li couldn't help poking its little head and smiled: "Let you learn more things on weekdays, not for fun!"
"Ah~" Yaya rubbed her fingers softly and coquettishly, Ah Li's heart softened without a hint, so Yuan Yanzhi's face darkened.
Hmph, morning and evening will keep you cool and cool!
With a tap of his finger, when the spell sounded, scenes slowly appeared in Ah Li's mind.
It was as lively as a market, crowded and crowded, but they were all crowded in the same direction, and everyone's faces were filled with happiness and yearning, as if the front was their lifelong dream. And to Ah Li's surprise, they all held a long or short tomb blood vine in their hands, without exception!
A group of people gradually walked towards the mountains, and slowly, the picture gradually blurred......
"You just went to see these things?"
"Yikes!"
Ah Li looked at the tomb blood vine in her hand and was silent. What are those people going to do when they come together? Looking like this, it's like going to a temple fair......
Temple fair?
They are believers! This thought flashed in Ah Li's mind, but it could no longer be dispelled. Such a crazy appearance is exactly the same as the previous belief in the enchantment of the saint by Fu Lu and Wen Zi! Coupled with the tomb blood vine in their hands, it is not difficult to think of at all!
From the very beginning, everything was arranged by the Holy Maiden, and the things under the river of corpses were also what she was looking for! So what is it that is worth her so much trouble and at any cost?
Ah Li frowned, she always felt that this matter was not so simple, it was as if it was ...... It was deliberately arranged......
……
Fu Baiman has been hiding from the slave boat recently, intentionally or unintentionally.
When she went to practice, she always picked strange and dangerous horns so that he could not find them, and when she came back, she would fall asleep, and even if she had to face it, she would keep her head down and quietly not say a word.
Nu Zhou has been walking cautiously lately, although he himself doesn't know why his brute ignores him, so he can only try his best to please her.
Aggrieved.
"It's not an accident that Nu Zhou was able to escape with Fu Baiman, right?" How can there be so many coincidences in this world that everything is arranged just right? The ultimate coincidence can only be artificial. Assuming that the White Tiger Patriarch had long known that he would be the incarnation of the Pangu Axe, then everything would make sense, and he would be protected when the catastrophe came.
Yuan Yanzhi groaned for a moment when he heard this, and said, "It's always the arrangement of fate."
"Hmm...... Also. "After all, Fu Baiman said at the beginning that the slave boat was picked up by her, so this is the fate of the two? Is...... Ah Li didn't know what to say.
When Wei Yuyang and Si An came to knock on the door, she was really startled by the costumes on the two of them. The shiny thing was from head to toe, and it still looked like metal.
It's just that Si'an's complexion is really not good-looking. I want him to be a big man, and he is dressed up like this...... Comical! What's more, he can't say no yet! Otherwise, Wei Yuyang will give him another pot!
Is...... Shame!
"You two are ...... Ready to make any comedy? ”
"Go, go, go! What nonsense! We're in strong armor, quick, fill me with your rune paper, so that we are invincible in the world! ”
“…… What are you going to do? ”
This time it was his turn to be surprised: "Huh? Didn't you say let's prepare for a tough fight? ”
"I'm talking about Fu Baiman and Nuzhou, you two can't go."
"Why?" Wei Yuyang's face was full of disappointment, and he made Ah Li laugh: "The place we are going to is not as simple as we meet on weekdays, there will be many masked people, and there may be more non-humans. It's too dangerous, and Yuan Zhizhi and I can't guarantee that we can protect you, let alone ...... Your invincible armor. ”
Si'an's purpose in going to Nanguan was to catch Wenzi, the murderer, but now that he has been caught, there is naturally no need to take any more risks. Besides, what she said was the truth, and if something happened with them, she couldn't forgive herself, so it was better to extinguish that possibility in the first place.
Si An was very calm: "Then you must be careful, we ...... Waiting for you to come back and go back to H City together. ”
Ah Li smiled: "Okay."
……
It's already raining outside, a little cool, but with a little indescribable irritability. Along the way, I could always hear the vague cry of a baby, like a woman's scolding.
The place Wenzi said was in the middle of a cliff on the outskirts of Nanguan, and there was a hidden cave there. It is said that it has been a place that has been changed in a hurry since it was discovered by Ah Li last time.
No wonder she was already empty when she followed the little paper crane later, and she was quite alert.
Yuan Yanzhi carried Ah Li on his back for a long time before reaching the top of the cliff, Nu Zhou was even more out of breath, and looked at Fu Baiman's worn claws with some distress: "Barbarian, I hold ......" The hand was about to stretch out, but the other party silently dodged away, and Nu Zhou's face darkened in an instant.
The cliff wall is vertical, I don't know what the distance is up and down, I only know that I can't see the bottom from above, and I can't see the top from the bottom. In addition, there is a large choppy river below, and it is completely impossible to walk from below, and there is no other way but to slowly descend from above. Those people went to great lengths to hide from her!
Yuan Yanzhi carried her on her back and slowly slid down from a place on the slower terrain, pulling the big tree vine that I don't know how many years had grown, step by step, every time I moved, there would be a lot of gravel falling out of the mountain, plus the wind on the cliff was stronger than below, shaking, it was really dangerous!
"Scared?" Yuan Yanzhi tightened the person and asked softly. Ah Li's face was buried deep in his neck, and he shook his head: "Don't be afraid."
With you, how can I be afraid.
After several twists and turns, he finally found a foothold when he reached the middle, and the slave boat and Fu Baiman also followed to the ground. Under the cover of the big wave of green clothes, it was impossible to see the entrance of the cave just by looking at it, Ah Li walked back and forth, feeling it carefully, and finally felt a different wind direction from the outside world in the place near the very edge.
"Over here."
The slave boat tore off the green vine at the entrance of the cave, and the black entrance of the cave was slowly revealed, and there was something carved on the edge of the hole, uneven marks, but it was slippery to the touch, and there was a large smell of damp moss. Fu Bai shook his hand in disgust, ignoring the corner of the clothes that Nu Zhou courteously handed over.
Still silent.
"Let's go, be careful, those masks aren't the same as the ones before." In the last fight with Fumiko, Ali found that those masked people were more agile than the previous ones, and they could barely think, no longer just following orders, as if they were ...... With a little puppet of his own thoughts.
The wind in the cave was no lighter than outside, and there were drops of water falling overhead, falling in the small pool, causing a small echo, and several people looked around, but they didn't find any trace of them! Ah Li frowned, and after glancing at Yuan Yanzhi, he took out a handful of rune paper and suddenly scattered it around!
The sound of clothes grinding suddenly sounded, and only black shadows flashed quickly in the beam of the flashlight, but it quickly returned to silence, as if nothing had happened.
Ali curled the corners of her lips.
Hide yourself like a bat in the cave wall, obscure all sounds, and quickly dodge the runes when they strike. Think they won't find out?
Yuan Yanzhi walked to the stone wall, and the momentum in his palm suddenly stabbed out! Ah Li then attached a piece of rune paper and hung it next to his arm, and the color of cinnabar was instantly revealed, and there seemed to be a force that spread quickly up along the stone wall!
"Sneer!!!"
A sharp sound echoed in the cold and damp cavern, followed by the sound of heavy objects falling into the pool, and those masked people saw that they could no longer hide, so they brandished machetes and attacked fiercely!
A few people quickly dodged, and when Ah Li turned around, he threw the talisman paper in his hand towards the masked man, but instead of sticking to them directly, he surrounded them like a chain and trapped them in place.
It's so exhausting, and you have to spend time dealing with the masked man who pounces on you. There's no way, since the events of that day, now when you meet the masked person, you have to ask Fu Bai to confirm whether there are still her clansmen, and then ...... Make another plan.
Because she herself doesn't know if the masked man who has been refined to such a level can still purify the transcendence.
They are really different from the previous ones, just dodging the machete wasted their minds, and the slave boat was also slashed on the arm, fortunately his skin and flesh were not broken, Ah Li hurriedly pasted the talisman paper on his wound, and there was a sharp pain, but the wound did not spread anymore.
Until all the masked people in the cave were controlled by the rune paper, Ah Li was already exhausted and collapsed in Yuan Yanzhi's arms, panting for breath.
Before she had time to think about it, she pulled a small bottle out of her pocket and pulled them back slowly. Silence had returned, and the cave was already in tatters after the previous fight, and there were still some fragments of masks immersed in the waterhole, which looked very miserable. Ah Li still can't believe that this is the end? She should have been happy, but she frowned.
I have a bad premonition......
When she walked out of the cave, Ah Li took a few breaths of hard while holding on to the stone wall, but her hand suddenly froze!
Smooth?!
And what about the bump marks just now?! Ah Li suddenly felt a chill rise from the back of her neck......
