Chapter 259: Old Enemies, New Friends
The light flickered and flickered, but in this deep underground it was particularly conspicuous, after a little observation, Zhang Renshan felt that this light seemed to be very similar to the candlelight that swayed after being blown by the wind, but in this underground, how could there be the light of the fire candle being lit, and Zhang Renshan said softly to San'er when his body moved: "Look over there!" There seems to be light. ”
San'er had noticed it before Zhang Renshan talked to him, but he never said it, the appearance of light in this underground is not necessarily a good thing, what happened to San'er before is enough to illustrate this, looking at the flickering fire in the distance, San'er first reached out and touched Zhang Renshan's position and then said: "This light appeared suddenly, I am afraid that there is danger hidden in it, I think it is best for us to wait and see the changes first." ”
"Well......" Zhang Renshan listened to San'er's words and wanted to say something, but looking at the light, Zhang Renshan stopped talking, and set off to stand aside and follow San'er to quietly look at the position where the light appeared, time passed for a while, and the two didn't see any change in the light, and when they were thinking about leaving to take a look, San'er raised his eyes and saw that the light seemed to suddenly move towards the two of them.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, San'er grabbed Zhang Renshan's body as he was leaving, and then said, "Xian'er, it seems that the light moved towards us just now." ”
"Is there one? Why didn't I see it" Zhang Renshan turned his face to look at the faint light in the distance when he listened to San'er's words, but after all, the two of them were some distance away from the light, and Zhang Renshan couldn't tell if the light had moved, and after waiting a little longer, Zhang Renshan didn't dare to walk over easily, after all, San'er's words were all said.
The air around them seems to be frozen, and the two of them don't know what to do now, if they want to go forward to find out what the light is, but San'er is afraid that something will happen, this underground is extremely dark, if there is really any danger, then it will be really difficult to deal with it, but if you don't go to the front and stay in place, then this is not a way, if you don't move, you will only put yourself in a more dangerous situation, the vague figure chasing and killing the two is floating underground, if you want to say that you can't move, then you can only let others slaughter.
After thinking about it, San'er gritted his teeth and said, "That's it...... Xian'er, let's take a closer look at the light. ”
Zhang Renshan had been waiting impatiently, and when he heard San'er's words, he immediately copied the broadsword and walked in front, San'er followed closely and slowly walked forward with Zhang Renshan, the light in the distance was still flickering, but as the two got closer and closer, the light suddenly became a little bigger, as if he knew that someone was coming, San'er stared at the front and looked at it and only felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say anything to him, as the two walked to the near place of the light, the two of them saw clearly when they raised their eyes, Where is this light coming from a fire candle, this is a monster with a shiny tentacle on its forehead, its horizontal teeth are upside down, its body is bloated, the most important thing is that this monster doesn't seem to have limbs, only this huge face is lying on the ground, and the big face has no expression, this monster seems to be dead, only the light on the forehead is still flickering, a little far away, Zhang Renshan and San'er don't dare to step forward easily, they can only stand aside and look at it from afar, San'er looked at the monster that seemed to be dead and said softly to Zhang Renshan: "Xian'er, is this thing still alive?" ”
"I don't know! But it doesn't seem to be moving" Zhang Renshan turned his head and looked at the monster, it didn't look like it was breathing, and the huge face on the ground was also motionless, moving Zhang Renshan wanted to step forward to take a look, but San'er stopped him and said: "Don't be busy yet, I think we'd better observe for a while." ”
"What is there to see, it's so far away, even if there is anything, I can't see it clearly!" Zhang Renshan stretched out his finger and pointed to the monster on the ground and spoke.
San'er listened to Zhang Renshan's words and smashed his mouth, this is true, now the two of them are really too far away from the monster, if there is anything, it will definitely not be visible, unless it is to go further, but to say that it is close to the monster, San'er does not want to do this, knowing that there will be danger, so why move forward, it is not more appropriate to retreat earlier.
Zhang Renshan stood aside and saw that San'er didn't speak for a long time, and shook off San'er's hand to stop him, and then turned around and walked towards the monster, San'er couldn't stop it when he saw this, so he could only follow it to the near place of the monster, the two looked down, this monster really had no limbs, and behind the face was a sticky body, it looked like it was chopped fat meat, the oil was disgusting, and after a few glances, San'er stared at the light on the forehead on the face and looked, the tentacles stretched out from the monster's forehead, It is not made of flesh, but is made of countless vine branches entangled in a combination, one end of the vine branch is straight into the body of this face, piercing the forehead is growing into the body, and the other side is the source of the flashing light, a small round bead is wrapped in these vine branches, San'er looked up at the glowing bead, the appearance naturally does not have a trace of artificial feeling, as if this thing is born like this, San'er eyes are a little straight, Just as he was thinking about slowing down, Zhang Renshan said on the side: "I'm afraid this is the pearl of the night, right?" Doesn't it mean that the night pearl will shine at night! ”
"I don't know, we haven't seen what the pearl looks like that night, although this bead will glow, but what is it, Xian'er, I think it's best for us not to jump to conclusions" San'er shook his head, he didn't agree with Zhang Renshan's statement, and set off to stand aside San'er wanted to take a look behind this monster, but because the glowing beads were only illuminated in front of him, almost all of the monster's back was hidden in the dark, and San'er couldn't see what was there, so he had to turn around and walk back, When he twisted his face and was about to talk to Zhang Renshan, San'er saw that he was reaching out to pick the beads wrapped in the vines, and his heart tightened, and San'er rushed over in a few steps, knocking Zhang Renshan to the ground.
I said...... San'er, what are you doing? Zhang Renshan rubbed his sore buttocks, half-lying on the ground, and looked at San'er.
San'er sighed, looked up at the glowing bead that was still among the vines, and said, "Xian'er, you don't want to think about why this bead is still here." ”
"Huh? Why? Zhang Renshan asked San'er as he got up from the ground.
San'er heard Zhang Renshan ask him and opened his mouth to explain, but just as he was about to speak, someone in the surrounding darkness said: "Don't you understand the truth of waiting for the rabbit?" The glowing beads are like bait that can lure other things, waiting for the prey to get there, and then eat it in one bite. ”
Zhang Renshan and San'er were stupid, hurriedly leaned on a piece to look around, after a while, heard a sound of footsteps, a person walked out of the darkness slowly, San'er looked at it and was shocked, this is not someone else, it is actually a strange snake that chased two people all the way in the mountain, although it is now a man's appearance, but San'er before leaving the mountain underground, has already remembered the appearance it has become, and now it is not bad at all, but Zhang Renshan on the side does not know who this person is, The broadsword in his hand was opened and roared: "Who are you? ”
"Ben Xian, don't you all remember? It's a shame you've been running away for so long," the man turned into the snake chuckled softly.
San'er listened to the strange snake's words, raised his hand and waved at Zhang Renshan, signaling him to temporarily accept the knife, and then turned his face to the strange snake and said, "You are old, why did you come here?" Don't practice with that king? ”
"Can you still remember this immortal, little cub? How did you recognize me? "The strange snake is also a little surprised, his current appearance is a mortal, if you want to be able to recognize yourself, you basically have to carry some Taoism.
San'er didn't hide anything, and said what he could see, and the strange snake smiled when he heard it: "I can't think of it!" Unexpectedly...... My method of transformation has been cracked by this clumsiest way of yours, a little cub, and it seems that I will have to change my appearance in the future. ”
San'er is also hehe, but when it comes to the strange snake now, he still hasn't said the purpose of his coming here, San'er tilted his head and winked at Zhang Renshan, Zhang Renshan also knew what San'er wanted to do, and said directly to the strange snake: "I said...... What the hell are you doing here, old stinking snake? ”
"You little...... What can this immortal do, it's not thanks to the fox, come to rescue you" The strange snake said with a dissatisfied expression on his face, San'er and Zhang Renshan were all stunned and looked at each other, and then San'er turned his face and said, "What you said is ...... It's true? ”
"There can still be fake! You two cubs hurry up with me, the fox is going to plug this crack" The strange snake stretched out his hand as he spoke, and directly conjured a snake body, wrapped the two of them, and then began to fly to a high place, Zhang Renshan saw that this was about to leave the ground, that is, he wanted to take out the glowing beads before flying away, but because the strange snake flew up too fast, Zhang Renshan was taken to a high place without reaching the vine branches, seeing that the glowing beads were getting farther and farther away from him, Zhang Renshan only felt heartache, As if his treasure had been taken away, San'er was happy to get out of trouble on the side, but when he turned his head to look at Zhang Renshan, he saw his painful look, shook his head and said to Zhang Renshan: "What's wrong with you?" ”
"San'er, that bead is left below," Zhang Renshan sighed, his eyes full of regret.
San'er heard Zhang Renshan's words and didn't know what to say, raised his hand and patted Zhang Renshan's shoulder and said: "Xian'er, don't be too greedy when you have to be a man, otherwise it will cause trouble, that bead has nothing to do with you and me, then let's go with it." ”
"Yes...... I ...... in my heart It's ......" Zhang Renshan looked at the figure of the glowing bead under his feet with a look of grievance.
The strange snake cast a spell on the side and led the two of them to fly up to the high place of the crack, and also heard the conversation between the two on the side, and smiled slightly: "You didn't reach out to get the bead, otherwise I would have gotten out of the monster's stomach to pick you up." ”
"But...... That bead is really rare" Zhang Renshan knew what the strange snake meant, but he just felt very pity, the bead was not shiny, it was obviously a treasure.
Listening to Zhang Renshan's words, the strange snake turned his head and looked at him and said, "Little cub, do you think you can really take that bead?" ”
"Why can't you take it? I was going to reach out and take it off," Zhang Renshan asked suspiciously, looking at the strange snake.
The strange snake didn't speak, his eyes moved, he looked at San'er and said, "You little cub should understand, right?" ”
"Hmm!" San'er nodded and didn't say anything else, but Zhang Renshan was stunned by what the two said, stayed aside and said to San'er: "No...... What do you understand? Is there something wrong with that bead? ”
"Isn't that right? It's not big...... Xian'er's bead is a monster, it's not a treasure at all, if you want to take it down, it's impossible" San'er explained to Zhang Renshan while looking at the expression of the strange snake, he was afraid that he would misinterpret the meaning of the strange snake and cause unpleasantness.
But the strange snake didn't say anything else, nodded at San'er, and then looked at the heights, and continued to fly towards the crack with the two of them.
As the light on the top is getting bigger and bigger, Zhang Renshan and San'er can see the beams of their own gatehouse, and they are about to go out, when a few people are happy, a black light flies straight from below, the strange snake is fortunate to react in time, and immediately moved to hide to the side, this black light is menacing, if it really hits the body, the immortal will have to be wasted, seeing the black light passing by, the strange snake shook his body and placed the two of them in a place where the crack wall protruded, turned around and the strange snake looked down, and said to the two:" We won't be able to get out for the time being, you guys are here now, I'll go fight that guy, the fox should be there in a while. ”
Zhang Renshan and San'er looked at the strange snake, the performance of this monster before and now is simply too different, when it is underground in the mountain, it is a demon scourge, when people kill people and dismantle things, nothing can stop it, but now this strange snake is willing to fight with the vague figure for the lives of the two, I really can't figure out what is going on, San'er also tilted his head to the strange snake and said: "The fairy family should be careful!" ”
The strange snake also heard San'er's words, smiled and nodded, and then shook his body, changing into the appearance of the huge snake body in the mountain before, and opened his two sharp claws to go straight to the bottom of the crack.
The two watched the strange snake disappear into the darkness below, although there was no emotion for the two of them, but at least now this demon is helping the two of them through the danger in front of them, no one knows what the consequences are, maybe this strange snake will never appear again, or maybe this strange snake will follow the two of them, San'er can see clearly and know that he should let down his guard against this strange snake, but when these things come to the head, San'er can't open his heart to anyone at all, and only Zhang Renshan can talk about it.
Zhang Renshan looked down at the bottom, the figure of the strange snake had long disappeared, the surroundings were as quiet as ever, only a trace of breeze was constantly blowing up from under the crack, raised his head and looked at the top, the current position of the two of them was not too far from the ground of the gatehouse, but if you want to go up, you must go around a sloping rock above the heads of the two, this crack is almost straight up and down, if there is no this sloping and convex rock, the up and down of this crack is still very easy to crawl, but now because of such a place, The rock wall of this crack cannot be climbed at all, and Zhang Renshan, who frowned, opened his mouth and said to San'er: "This place is really unique, it is blocked up and down." ”
San'er has been observing the movement under the crack, and when he heard Zhang Renshan's words, he looked around the two of them distractedly, and saw that the way up was blocked, so he shook his head helplessly and said: "This can't be helped, it happened suddenly just now, it's good that the strange snake can find a place to put us down, and in a hurry, he naturally doesn't care if the place where we are placed can be outside." ”
"San'er...... Why are you still speaking for that strange snake? Zhang Renshan turned his head to look at San'er, feeling a little incredible.
San'er smiled at the corner of his mouth and said, "I'm not speaking for that strange snake, I'm telling the truth, weren't you there just now!" ”
"Yes...... But are we going to stay here like that? Zhang Renshan looked around the two of them, this place happened to be on the side of the crack rock wall, the lower end of the inclined rock, it was impossible to say that it was impossible to go up, but it was still feasible to climb to the other, it was just a little more effort.
San'er shook his head when he heard Zhang Renshan's words and said: "No, there is no light around this crack, and we are not so familiar with this place, this place is not like the mountain, there is the moonlight illumination, you can take a good look at it yourself, if we really climb out, I guess we can't leave it at all." ”
Zhang Renshan just shook his eyes and looked around after San'er finished speaking, although there was the light in the gatehouse above his head, but there was not much to show around this crack, and he could only vaguely see a few locations, and those positions were almost smooth rock walls, and there was no place to climb at all.
Here Zhang Renshan is still looking for a way to go up, San'er just stared at the direction of the strange snake under the crack and looked carefully, there was no sound, there was no shout, everything was so calm, so comfortable, as if the two of them had just finished exploring in a deserted underground cave, and waited for San'er to see that there was still no movement at the bottom and sat aside, thinking carefully about everything he had experienced under this crack. Zhang Renshan also didn't find a good way out, so he could only sit on San'er's side and look into the distance.
But just as the two of them were stunned, a red flame flew straight towards the two from the darkness in the distance......
