Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Fire of the Monster

I could see that it was a stone, but at first it was too far away, and there was a fog shrouded in it, so I didn't feel its size, until two seconds later, when I watched it fall rapidly and get closer and closer, that I realized that it was a boulder the size of a water tank, and I was shocked - in the current environment, it would be a serious injury to be swept by a stone of this size!

", it's so big?!" The toad shouted, "Be careful! ”

With that, the toad's bulging body shrank suddenly, and the mountaineering pickaxe in his hand instantly smashed on the stone wall on the right, nailing himself to it, and he was able to avoid the boulder!

Everyone reacted quickly, only I didn't know what to do, looking up and down, with a bitter face: "Me?!" ”

Liang Ruoyi above me, and the second uncle below, these two people have learned to nail their bodies to the stone wall with the toad, and then they all pulled the rope around their waists up and down, which made me suddenly be pulled tightly by this pulling force, and stuck to the stone wall - at this moment, the boulder the size of a water tank whistled behind me and fell into the mist below......

After a few breaths, there was a loud "pop" below, and the boulder fell to the ground.

"Whew-whew-" I let out a long breath and gasped heavily: "I, I'm, why did you suddenly fall off the stone?!" ”

As I spoke, I looked down at the second uncle, but when I saw the second uncle looking up, his brows instantly furrowed: "Not good!" Stick tight! ”

I was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly looked up, and this look was so frightened that I almost didn't grasp the rope, and stumbled and fell: I don't know why, a black mass appeared again in the sky overhead, this time not one or two, but more than a dozen boulders that looked about the same size!

It's going to rain stones! If you get hit by one of them, you're done!

"Be careful, it's all tight!" The Seventh Master shouted loudly: "Also, pig head, prepare to force the land!" ”

Forced landing?! I was tightly dragged by the second uncle and Liang Ruoyi on the mountain wall, and the mountaineering pickaxe in my right hand was also nailed to the side like a toad......

"That's not right!" The cloth bag monk above Liang Ruoyi suddenly screamed, and everyone was stunned, and before they could open their mouths to ask, they felt the temperature around them rise rapidly, and that feeling was exactly the same as when they were in the cave!

"It's broken!" The seventh master shouted at the pig's head: "Pig's head, hurry up!" ”

The pig's head didn't have time to raise his head, so he continued to reach out and grope in the backpack, and finally simply gritted his teeth, threw the pickaxe down with his hand, and looked for it in the backpack with both free hands.

And the stone rain also fell from the top of our heads at this time, although there were many of them, but because we were all stuck to the stone wall, we were able to avoid a few pieces, but then we found that more and more stones appeared in the white mist above our heads, from more than ten to dozens of pieces, it really became a stone rain!

At the same time, the temperature around us rose sharply again, and after a few seconds, the suffocating temperature hit again, and I closed my mouth tightly, leaned my head against the rope, and covered my nose with the hand holding the rope!

Everyone's faces were shocked at this time, looking at it like this, it is very likely that after a while, that terrifying red flame will erupt from the stone wall again, and at that temperature, we will instantly turn to ashes!

"Jump!"

In a trance, I heard the bottom pig's head screaming, and hurriedly looked down in my heart, the sweat on my forehead flowed into my eyes, and it hurt hotly, and before I could see what was going on, the toad, Liang Ruoyi, and the cloth bag monk on the top of my head all let go of the mountaineering pickaxe embedded in the stone wall, released the rope, and jumped straight down!

"Huh?!" I only had time to make two noises before I was grabbed by Liang Ruoyi, wiped from my waist, opened the rope, and fell down with her! Looking up, there were more than a dozen boulders falling with us.

According to the previous judgment, we should still be about twenty meters from the ground, which is the height of seven or eight floors, jumping down at this height, plus those stones above our heads, if there is no protection, whether it is me or those masters, it is basically a dead end!

"Hit the ground and run!" The seventh master screamed in the darkness, I listened to the sound of the wind in my ears, after a few breaths, the body "poof" fell on a sponge-like thing, before I came back to my senses, I saw a "whew" on the stone wall high above my head was sprayed out of a big hole by a red flame, and countless gravel fell.

"Let's go!" The second uncle didn't care about anything at all, yelled, pulled me and ran away into the distance......

In the deep valley three hundred meters deep, although the fog has been very thin, but it is still dim, I was dragged by the second uncle to run a few steps before adjusting my body, I heard a burst of "boom boom" sound behind me, from time to time there are a few flying pieces of gravel hit my body, pain.

After running for more than 100 meters, we slowly stopped, turned our heads to look, and saw that the place where we had just landed had been buried into a small stone mountain, and if we had been slower, we would have been smashed directly into it and become a meat patty.

When I looked up, the air was completely shrouded in white mist, and I couldn't see anything outside the fog at all.

I sat on the ground, my heart still pounding, and I couldn't stabilize it for a while......

"What a monster is that?" The pig's head lay directly on the ground, and the big belly was like a small grave bag, lying down together, looking a little cautious.

"What monster?" Liang Ruoyi glared at him.

"Fire!" The pig's head gasped and said, "This kind of flame is similar to the legendary Samadhi True Fire!" A few seconds can raise the temperature of the environment around us to the point of suffocation, and if you stay for a few more seconds, you will die! Not to mention being burned directly by that flame! Look at Gu Rui's stupid boy, he hasn't been hit by the flames yet, and a handful of his hair has been burned off! ”

I stretched out my foot and kicked the pig's head, but I didn't kick it, snorted coldly, touched the burnt hair on my forehead, and said with a wry smile: "I also wonder, where did the flame come from?" Could it be that we are surrounded by several hidden volcanoes? ”

"Where is the volcano!" The ice beauty sighed lightly and leaned towards me, the face of the alluring melon seed hung some dust, like a fairy descending from the dust, and looked a little playful: "This place is not a volcanic landform at all. However, I don't know where the flame came from, and the only explanation I think I can figure out is the mechanism ......."

"Well, it's possible that it's a mechanism." The Seventh Master nodded on the side and said, "However, who could make such a clever mechanism?" I don't think it's much like ......."

"Then it can't be explained." The toad on the side shook his head and said, "It's not a mechanism, it's not a monster, what could it be?" ”

I turned my head to look, only to find that the toad had been on top before, at this time I don't know why, the abscess on my face cracked many times, and his face was all red and white and yellow that he wiped with tissues, plus the dust that fell on his face, it looked even more filthy and disgusting!

"Who knows......" The Seventh Master looked at the stone wall we had just come down from, and muttered: "The rope is also broken, and it is unlikely that we will return the same way, so we are still going to find another way after finding the Nanpan Shrine." ”

Liang Ruoyi glanced at the time: "It's four o'clock in the afternoon, let's rest around here tonight, determine tomorrow's route, and set off tomorrow morning." ”

Everyone had no objections, because the past few hours had really taken too much physical exertion!

Sitting on the ground and resting, we took this time to carefully observe the situation around us.

From the cliff we came down from, it was about a hundred meters away. Fifty meters further on, you will reach the cliff on the other side. Looking left and right, the deep valley stretches into the distance, and after two turns, there is no end in sight.

It was as if someone had cut it with a knife, it was deep and long.

"Huh?!" Liang Ruoyi suddenly looked at the map and exclaimed softly: "Before we know it, we have come to the northwest direction of Yunshan, if what the Seventh Master said is correct, we should be about to find the Nanpan Divine Palace!" ”

As soon as the seventh master heard this, he immediately became excited, got up from the ground with both hands, and didn't care about the soil on his body, walked in front of Liang Ruoyi in a few big steps, looked down at the map, Liang Ruoyi explained the approximate location to him, and the look on his face was even more pleased: "Well, not bad, not bad!" That's right, this place is really hard to find! The mountains above are covered with vegetation and fog, and we have to go through such a rough road to get here, if we hadn't been lucky, we stumbled into the wrong road by mistake, and maybe we would still be like headless flies! ”

There was a hint of joy on everyone's tired faces, and after resting for a while, they got up and sorted out the rest of their equipment, and then found a flat place to light a fire and prepare dinner.

With the pig's head, at least the food is much better, remembering that when there was no pig's head in the team before, the old clam who even eats live clams is there, we have nothing but bread and bread all day long, at most when we hunt animals, we open a meal of meat - I don't know, this old clam who has recovered well in the mouth of the seventh master, what has he been doing for most of the year......

Soon, we made dinner, chatted about tomorrow's route while eating, determined the general route, and just had enough to eat. Everyone cleaned up and rested on their own.
