Chapter 139 The Way of Life
Xiuyue turned over and avoided the snake tail, and took out the dagger with his hand, a rune paper was immediately pasted on the ground where the snake tail had just fallen, Xiuyue chuckled, the dagger drew a killing word in the soil, just finished writing, the snake tail swept over again, at this time, the black-robed woman who was originally backward had rushed to the entrance of the cave under the escort of the man, and the woman jumped down directly, but the man turned back to Xiuyue and shouted: "Xiuyue girl, come down." ”
Xiu Yue chuckled, her body was half a foot in the air, the snake's tail swept to the ground, and the killing word suddenly dissipated, and at the same time, the rune paper that was originally attached to the ground actually pulled out a claw from the ground, and the claw looked like a person's hand bones, but it was impossible for a normal person to have such a long finger on his body.
The claws immediately grabbed the snake's tail, such a thick snake tail, such hard scales, but the claws were directly grasped on it, and it was deeply buckled, the giant snake screamed, Xinzi spit out, and bit it with its mouth open, Xiuyue took the opportunity to hurriedly dodge, and as soon as he fell, he fell directly into the hole, not only that, but also closed the wooden door with his hand.
The entrance of the cave is very dark, itself is an open from the ground, like a cellar-like existence, there is no room for a few people directly below, maybe because of this, Xiuyue did not see a person when he landed, not only that, as soon as the wooden door above his head was closed, the entire space became dark, and he couldn't see the darkness of his fingers.
With a twist of her wrist, a piece of rune paper burned in her fingers, and when she let go of her hand, the rune paper seemed to be a moving lantern spinning around her body.
There were messy footsteps on the ground, and Xiuyue saw her surroundings clearly. The entrance to the cave is open in an open space, like a skylight, and there are four paths around it, which can be passed through.
But at this moment, there was no one around, Xiuyue held her breath and concentrated for a moment, but she didn't find anything, she couldn't hear any movement at all, and even the giant snake above seemed to be gone, quiet and silent.
Although the rune paper has been burning, it is still a complete piece of rune paper, although there is some light, but the range is not large, Xiuyue squatted down and took a look, the ground was full of messy footsteps, she frowned, she always felt that they suddenly disappeared must not be because they were in a hurry, Xiuyue can be sure, no matter what, if it is not an emergency, Rong Zhao will not leave his own.
Xiu Yue thought for a moment, did not move, stood quietly, and then manipulated the rune paper to look around the surrounding walls, Xiu Yue glanced at it, and immediately took a deep breath, on the surrounding walls, there were actually some snakes, but compared to the giant snake above, these snakes are much cuter, dense and unclear snakes are lying on the wall, different colors, but the shape of the body is the same, they all have closed their eyes, as if they are hibernating.
Xiu Yue took a deep breath and gradually slowed down her breathing, snakes like to be cold, presumably these snakes must have woken up just now, because the heat after there were more people made these snakes wake up, which made Rong Zhao have no choice but to leave first.
Xiu Yue slowed down her breathing, slowly manipulated the rune paper to slowly move away from the wall, for fear that the heat of the fire would wake them up, looking at the intersection one by one, Xiu Yue's eyes were suddenly certain, next to the intersection in front, although there were also some sleeping snakes, but the number of those snakes was much less than the rest of the holes, not only that, but there were some sword marks on it, it can be seen that they had fought here, but there were no snake corpses on the ground, and it seemed that they had chased everyone in.
Xiu Yue did not hesitate, and immediately manipulated the rune paper and flew back, the firelight quietly stayed between her palms, and suddenly the places that could be seen around became smaller and smaller, but the heat also contracted.
The rune paper was imprisoned in Xiuyue's palm, she maintained this posture and slowly moved over step by step, when everything around was quiet, Xiuyue could even hear the slight movement of some snakes on the surrounding walls, or the sound of spitting letters, those sounds were infinitely amplified in Xiuyue's ears, making her whole person full of a sense of tension.
When she walked to the entrance of the cave, there was a sudden "click" from under her feet. The surroundings were too quiet, and all of a sudden, Xiuyue's breathing suddenly stopped, for fear of waking up the snakes around her.
But it's so dangerous, Xiuyue waited for a while, and nothing happened.
After waiting for a while, she squatted down to see what was under her feet, and there was a hairpin under her feet, the style of this hairpin was very old, not only that, but this old hairpin was still wooden, perhaps because it had been too long, so there had been some mildew on the wood, but overall the protection was very good.
But Xiuyue can be very sure that this hairpin does not belong to the people between them, Xiuyue does not have the habit of wearing hairpins, as for the rest of the women, the black-robed woman does not want to be a person with a wooden hairpin at first glance, unless, Xiuyue suddenly paused, is it Qingtian's, and finally when Qingtian came in, although she was in a hurry, but Xiuyue was outside to delay her time, with her kung fu, even if something happened, she would not lose the maintenance of such a good hairpin.
Xiu Yue was stunned for a moment, put the hairpin in her arms, breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the exit that was only a few steps away, and took one step at a time.
Suddenly, a crisp sound came from a distance, and at the same time, there was a fire on the surrounding walls, and those firelights suddenly made the surrounding snakes move, Xiu Yue didn't react, and on the wall closest to her, a small snake suddenly opened its eyes without any emotion, and pounced with its mouth open.
The giant snakes outside are all to protect the things inside, so it is conceivable that these little snakes must be more difficult than it, Xiuyue gritted his teeth and took out a dagger and slashed it, Xiuyue originally thought that the scales on the little snake's body must be very hard, so he was not prepared to hurt it, so he just took a step back and prepared to dodge.
What Xiu Yue didn't expect was that the little snake was easily cut out of a wound by the dagger, and suddenly, a strong stench came out of the wound.
The little snake tossed twice in the air and collapsed to the ground as if it were dead, blood flowing, and a trajectory meandered on the ground.
Xiu Yue frowned suspiciously, but felt an inexplicable palpitation, at the same time, on the surrounding walls, more small snakes woke up, not only that, but the sound of what rubbed on the ground came from different places, Xiu Yue's heart was stunned, could it be because of the smell?
She hurriedly covered her nose, but there was still a feeling of dizziness, and at the same time, the sound of friction was getting closer.
Xiu Yue paused, hurriedly walked in, and behind him, countless small snakes followed, one by one, in a steady stream.
Those little snakes are petite and fast, and they kept up with Xiuyue in two clicks, Xiuyue had no choice but to use a dagger to cut a lot more, and after they were injured, they fell to the ground as if they were dead, the smell of blood was getting heavier and heavier, and at the same time, Xiuyue felt that her dizziness was getting stronger and stronger.
Xiuyue paused, and three runes suddenly appeared in her fingers, she bit her fingers, and the blood drew a word in the air, and then pasted the three runes on the ground and the walls on both sides.
This hole is very narrow, although it is one and a half people high, but the surrounding can accommodate only a normal person, presumably it took a lot of effort to allow them to escape at that time, so you can see a lot of sword marks on the surrounding walls.
As soon as the rune paper landed, a barrier formed where the rune paper was attached, and in the darkness, the barrier suddenly lit up, and then calm returned.
Xiuyue hurriedly walked forward, because she didn't know how long the rune paper just now would last.
After breathing too much smell just now, Xiu Yue felt dizziness getting heavier and heavier, she glanced back, those snakes were really blocked there, none of them came over, the rune paper in the palm of her hand was still glowing, but that light couldn't shine far away at all, as if there was no end in front of her, only all the darkness.
Getting more and more dizzy, Xiu Yue walked a few more steps, but finally fell to the ground as if she had suddenly lost her strength.
She took a deep breath, and the rune paper slowly folded under the command of her mind, turning into a shining paper crane, and after watching the paper crane form, Xiuyue closed her eyes with confidence.
She will arrange for the paper crane to find Rong Zhao and them, Rong Zhao and Xiao Yi have their own things, as long as they are not far away, they will definitely be able to find them, but she can't support it, and the formation in front of her doesn't know how long it can last, Xiu Yue sighed helplessly, and then looked at the front helplessly.
Not far away, the paper crane slowly flew in the air, still faintly burning, very conspicuous in the darkness, but Xiuyue slowly closed her eyes, and the little light in front of her was there, and finally turned into a phantom.
In the distance, Xiao Yi, who was hiding behind a stone door, looked at Rong Zhao with a sad face, and said, "The master hasn't caught up yet, we ......"
The black-robed woman next to her sneered: "It's your master who is useless, what can you do." ”
The black-robed woman had already left too much of a bad impression on Xiao Yi before, and as soon as she spoke, Xiao Yi could only look at her timidly with a little ferocity, but she didn't speak.
Rong Zhao turned his head and snorted coldly and said, "It's okay, I'll go find her." ”
After that, he glanced back at the black-robed woman, who seemed to be a little annoyed, while Qingtian on the side was lowering his head, looking guilty, Yuwensheng next to him was looking at her coldly and didn't speak, Jun Qianyan also frowned and didn't speak, looking calm.
