Chapter 43: Time Passes Like an Arrow
Zhong Yuan doesn't have the ability to fly into the sky, and unlike those perverts, he can soar thousands of feet high with a single kick. So he could only stay on the gravel, looking up at the pierced passage, looking at the sky in that corner, and there was a touch of helplessness on his thin face.
The whirring wind suddenly rose, blowing through the entire underworld, and that beam of light shone from above the passage, as if to expel the endless darkness. In the end, it could only spread to the surroundings, forming a place of light, which made Zhong Yuan's face even more depressed.
I don't know how many years have passed in the cave, and I hate less when I get out of the mountain gate.
In the darkness, Zhong Yuan really didn't have the slightest sense of time. However, as the light shone on his body, and the cold wind that ran through it, it made his body tremble, and a doubt appeared in his mind at that moment.
How long have I been here.
This was the doubt that appeared at the moment, and it was also the root cause of his sudden uprightness, and it was the main reason why his lowered head suddenly raised to look at the light. However, as a cold, petal-like object fell from his thin cheeks, a trace of bitterness appeared in the corners of Zhong Yuan's mouth, because he didn't know how long it had been since he had stayed here.
"Master Bao, how long have we been staying here?"
Zhong Yuan, who couldn't find an answer, finally let go of his desire to continue thinking, lowered his head and asked the mysterious mouse who stayed in his body. Perhaps in his heart, he had already seen the mysterious rat as an omnipotent creature, otherwise he would not have been so accurate in his previous prediction, and he still stayed in his body, and never came out.
"If I'm not mistaken, it's been more than a month since we've been here."
Bao Ye was silent for a while, as if he was really counting the time, but he did not disappoint Zhong Yuan, and after a few moments, he gave an answer. However, that answer was not accurate, but it also made Zhong Yuan suddenly shocked, and he muttered in his heart, he couldn't imagine that more than a month had passed, and he didn't know if Lu Dao could catch up with that qualifying match.
Thinking of this, Zhong Yuan was a little anxious, knowing that he had promised the mouse to participate in the qualifying competition, and also promised Xiao Wei of No. 1 Middle School, if he didn't go, he would definitely break his promise. It will make his opponent Wu Chong think that it is his cowardice, and at the same time, he also wants to participate very much, because in addition to abandoning these reasons, there is also the coveted and rich reward.
"Bao Ye, is there any way you can get out?"
I was anxious, but there was nothing I could do, I had to know that under the fight just now, it had already spread to the entire Underworld Realm, completely destroying it for thousands of miles. So even if Zhong Yuan didn't go to see the passage that came down, he could guess that it must have been completely destroyed, and if he didn't see a city, he couldn't resist the birth of a murderous thing? What's more, it is two terrifying existences fighting each other in this world, so there is Zhong Yuan's inquiry.
"I want to go up! It's really a big problem, we can't fly now, and we don't have that strength, and the passage up and down has indeed been destroyed. Now the way to get out of the city is to climb out of it, or the defender of the city is kind enough to take you up, otherwise there is no way. ”
For Zhong Yuan's inquiry, a touch of helplessness also appeared on Bao Ye Mouse's face, after all, it was no longer the starry sky overlord that roared Cangyu back then, but a unique existence reborn in the belly of a human being. So it has no way to deal with this phenomenon, but it expresses its own opinion, and when it looks up, a playful light suddenly appears in its small eyes.
"If I can't get out, I can't be trapped here for the rest of my life."
Bao Ye's words, Zhong Yuan can't be unconvinced, you must know that Lu Dao is now a headless fly, plus the fight just now is really too intense, which makes him feel like he is lost all over his body after getting Bao Ye's confirmation, and he has no spirit at all. And raised his head in numbness, looking at the corner of the sky, the corners of his mouth suddenly showed a touch of bitterness.
The city defenders are not familiar with me, and the fierce beast is entangled, how can they take care of me as a stranger.
Although Bao Ye's predictions have always been accurate, Zhong Yuan still won't believe that the bloody episode will happen to him. After all, he is not a saint, let alone a world-famous mecha king, just an ordinary person who is too small to be small, as a thousand-year-old city and a city defender admired by the so-called astral creatures in Bao Ye's mouth, Zhong Yuan didn't believe that he would still remember himself. Therefore, the whole face, as the snowflakes fell in the sky, became very stiff between numbness, like a sculpture with the breath of life.
However, in this world, there may be a lack of everything, but there is no shortage of that kind of bloody bridge, so just when Zhong Yuan felt disbelieving and depressed, there was suddenly a dark shadow in the passage. This made Zhong Yuan, who was blocked from the light, couldn't help but look up blankly, and then immediately jumped from the place where he was staying, and suddenly the sound of booming explosions echoed in this underground world again.
The dust was filled, covering people's eyes, blurring a area, and the debris was flying and shattering a lot of rock walls, and the sound of clattering echoed everywhere before it completely stopped. However, these were not Zhong Yuan's concerns, at this time, his gaze fell into the middle of the dust, and a trace of doubt suddenly appeared on his face, and he murmured in his heart.
It won't really be said right by Bao Ye again! Otherwise, what are you doing with this goods, is there still a way to guard the city that has become scum?
The blood flowed down from his body, and he could hear the low voice, which also made Zhong Yuan feel the embarrassment of the city defenders more clearly in the murmur, but he didn't step forward, just stayed in place and watched. Who knows what the temperament of the city defender is, although Zhong Yuan has a good impression of him by virtue of the drink before the fight just now, it does not mean that the city defender will have a good impression of him, maybe he is afraid that he will reveal the secret after he goes out, and he will come to kill himself.
"Little one, how did you get here?"
The rough voice sounded very loud, but you could also feel the tiredness revealed in the words. Obviously, today's Mo Chen, after fighting with that fierce beast, although he did not lose his life, but he suffered a heavy blow, otherwise it would not be like this, let alone after coming down, with the precipitation of the dust, the moment he took a step, his standing body actually shook.
"Uncle, you can come here, why can't I come."
The strength of the city defenders is something Zhong Yuan has really witnessed. However, in the face of him, he did not show any timidity, and his character was also revealed in his words, Mo Chen, who was neither humble nor arrogant, was suddenly surprised, and at the same time there was a trace of interest in his heart.
"It's a little interesting, in this place more than 3,000 feet underground, meet such an interesting young man as you, hehe! I was a little surprised, indeed. ”
Mo Chen smiled, his words were full of ridicule, without the slightest anger or any moves, he still stood in that light. Ling's Zhong Yuan's hanging heart finally relaxed, and his solemn expression eased a little, at least he could now be sure that the city defender in front of him was very easy to get along with even if he was short-tempered.
"Uncle, you shouldn't have been here for a long time! Otherwise, why didn't I see you when I came down? ”
Zhong Yuan didn't pick up Mo Chen's topic, after all, he already knew a little bit about his character, so the words he said didn't have the temptation of the previous ones, but directly expressed the doubts in his heart to him, but this answer Zhong Yuan obviously had an answer in his heart, you must know that since Lu Dao was called a city guard by Bao Ye, he must have stayed here for a long time, but the words that came out afterwards made him very incomprehensible.
"I've been here for six or seven years, and I already knew the Tao when you first came in. But seeing that you are so weak, I didn't pay too much attention, and I didn't expect that your kid's qualifications were so good, and he actually absorbed all the holy liquid of a lake, which was really beyond my expectations. ”
Mo Chen still looked indifferent, but when he answered that question, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. made Zhong Yuan also become a lot more free, the tense nerves were completely let go, and his pale face also turned calm, and he scratched his hand at that moment, looking a little stunned.
"Uncle, do you know the huge cave on the road that is built like a base?"
Zhong Yuan's expression also showed embarrassment when he scratched his head, you must know that since the person in front of him can be called a city defender by Bao Ye, and is also known as the most loyal person, then he must not lie to himself like an ant at this time, so isn't he referring to himself stealing the creatures in their city, after all, in the memory of the evil sea, Zhong Yuan can understand the preciousness of the holy liquid to Longyang City, so he will be embarrassed in his heart, but the absorption has been absorbed, and it is impossible to spit it out! Don't say that Zhong Yuan didn't want to, even if he wanted to, it was impossible to do it, so he hurriedly staggered the topic, and proposed the messy base when he went down to this underground, and he was indeed very puzzled in his heart.
"A group of greedy people, it's cheaper for them to die, but I say little guy, why do you have so many problems! Do you really plan to stay here for the rest of your life? ”
A fierce light suddenly flashed in Mo Chen's eyes, and the momentum of his whole body became extremely irritable in that instant, as if he was a humanoid beast. However, it quickly reined in, but at that moment, Ling's Zhong Yuan's whole body exploded like a cat, his whole body was full of hair, and his face was full of vigilance.
"It's an accident to be here, but it's worth it to get to know someone like Uncle, but I really don't plan to stay here for the rest of my life."
As Mo Chen's momentum converged, Zhong Yuan's tense nerves suddenly relaxed slightly, and he secretly exhaled a breath in his mouth, obviously how terrible the pressure brought to him at that moment was terrifying, but fortunately, this momentum was not aimed at him, so it eased up after a while, and scratched his head at that moment, and responded embarrassedly.
"You young people, it's really not for you to stay here, so I'll be a good person now and take you out of the city!"
For Zhong Yuan, Mo Chen really didn't have any good feelings for him at the beginning, and even wanted to kill him for a while. But with the appearance of the fierce beast and the collapse of the entire city, his mind gradually changed, not to mention that under the contact, he also had a good impression of this boy who was neither humble nor arrogant, otherwise when he just came down, Mo Chen really didn't mind killing Zhong Yuan here. But now he plans to take Zhong Yuan out, which is indeed a major psychological change for Mo Chen.
