Chapter 243: Into the Ground
Yue Ying tried hard to think about countermeasures, and suddenly seemed to think of something, so he gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, "Try it, if you don't try, you will die." After speaking, he slapped the 'weeping soul' on his waist violently, and the obscure incantation was constantly chanted in the air, and a ball of dead air slowly floated out of the weeping soul, wanting to temporarily scare the toothed light rat away with these gray dead air.
At first, those toothed light rats saw the gray smoke floating in front of them, thinking that it was the smoke that appeared after the object burned, 'squeak squeak~....' screamed indiscriminately, and retreated a lot, but after coming into contact with these dead gases, their eyes lit up, and they immediately became a lot more excited, and 'squeak~' screamed more cheerfully, and immediately summoned more tooth light rats, forming a wave of rats, rushing towards the sky and Yue.
Seeing this scene, Yue Ying's face turned pale, and he said secretly: "My life is resting~!!"
At this time, I only heard Tianxing shouting in surprise: "Found it~!"
It was too late to say that it was too fast, just when the rat tide pounced on the two of them, Tianxing finally touched a raised and abnormal stone in the corner of the wall, and then dimmed the mechanism hard, only to hear the sound of 'boom ~ bang ~', the figures of the two disappeared in place, leaving only these toothed light rats to keep spinning in place, sniffing back and forth, trying to find the traces of the two, and there was an inexplicable sense of resentment in my heart.
At this time, Tianxing and Yue Ying were at the feet of the group of 'toothed light rats', and they still felt some lingering palpitations about what happened just now.
"How could you think of scaring those toothed rats with death qi?" Tianxing reproached Yue Ying.
"Am I also in a hurry, squeezing out the idea? Besides, I didn't expect those toothed rats to be afraid of death. Yue Ying explained.
"Oops~, what do you think about is the most abundant in dead gas?It's the gas produced by decay~!Those toothed light rats eat the most food all year round is rotting corpses~!In our opinion, dead gas, but in the eyes of those toothed light rats, it is delicious~!" Tianxing complained helplessly.
"Ah~ah~!Why didn't I think of it~!There will be a young master who is wise~!" Yue Ying immediately clasped his fists and complimented.
Tianxing shook his head, "Forget it, it's a little difficult for you to find a way, let's go, if the toothed light mouse discovers this dark passage for a while, it will be troublesome to catch up." ”
Celestial Star then looked around to the left and right by the firelight, and saw that it was a passage in a rock layer hewn under the sand, about three feet long and wide, and could accommodate the two of them. And unlike the sand, the passage seems to be filled with moisture.
Tianxing and Yue Ying took a big breath, and the dry throat caused by the tension just now suddenly felt a lot more comfortable.
It's just that the black and dark depths in this passage are bottomless, and they continue to extend downward like a winding mountain road.
Standing at the beginning of the passage at this moment, no one can predict whether this will be a safe path to an escape exit, or a desperate path that will lead them to the abyss of death.
"Hiss~" Yue Ying couldn't help but exclaim, he heard the sound of toothed light rats gnawing on the ground above his head.
"Let's go~!Presumably, their sense of smell is also very sensitive, and this time, it is estimated that they have already sensed our position. Tianxing was also a little surprised, and immediately beckoned Yue Ying to walk forward together, at this moment, even if there was a Longtan tiger's den in front of him, he could only break through, it was better than being eaten by a rat here.
"Yue Ying, hurry up~!" As soon as Tianxing turned around, he found that Yue Ying was still in place with a gloomy face, and hurriedly urged loudly.
Yue Ying came back to his senses as if he had just woken up from a dream, raised his head and glanced at Tianxing and said, "Young Master, are you okay?"
Tianxing shook his head suspiciously, "I'm fine~, what's wrong with you?"
Yue Ying smiled slightly, "I'm fine, I'm just a little tired." After saying that, he hurriedly flashed forward to Tianxing's side, and instead led the way ahead.
Tianxing frowned and looked at Yue Ying's back, not knowing if he was thinking too much or ..... , he always felt that Yue Ying looked a little different, and seemed to be listless......
After about half a pillar of incense in front, Yue Ying suddenly stopped his figure and shouted: "Oops, young master, look ahead!"
Tianxing hurriedly strode forward a few quick steps, and a series of forks in the road leading in all directions appeared in front of the two, no one thought that this underground passage turned out to be a huge labyrinth!
Tianxing's eyes widened in astonishment, and he kept thinking in his heart: "Which path should I take, which is the right choice?"
"Young master, what should I do, if I get lost here, I probably won't be able to get out again, if I go back the way I came, I will definitely become food for those toothed mice~!" Yue Ying looked at the road in front of him.
Faced with a dilemma, the dark clouds that shrouded Tianxing's heart became even thicker.
Just when Tianxing and Yue Ying were at a loss and anxious, Tianxing suddenly raised his head, as if he was catching some kind of information in the air.
"Ha~!" After a while, his eyes flashed with confidence, and he came to a fork in the road and pointed there and said, "Take this road~!"
"Young master, are you sure you are taking this path?" Yue Ying looked at Tianxing suspiciously, "If you choose the wrong one, you can't afford to toss~!"
"Don't worry, there's nothing wrong, you see. Tianxing stretched out the fire in his hand to the passage in front of him, and the flame on the fire fold immediately swayed slightly, "There is a trace of extremely fine wind in it, indicating that the air is circulating, and there must be an exit at the other end of the passage." ”
"Hmm~ Makes sense. Yue Ying nodded, and then the first, like a mouse drilling a hole, bent down to enter the selected fork in the road, Tianxing saw Yue Ying's behavior all the way, frowned, and followed closely behind.
The deeper the two of them went, the more humid the air became, and the passage became steeper and steeper, and the angle of inclination had already made the body unconsciously begin to lean forward, but they could only try to lean back slightly, squatting and moving forward to maintain the possibility of not being slid down.
Soon, however, this trick didn't work, and as the air in the passage became more and more humid, various mosses appeared on the walls of the surrounding caves. And a lot of moss grows on the road where the two of them are walking, and if you step on it, you will slip if you are not careful.
Tianxing and Yue Ying had no choice but to slow down, leaning against the cave wall, carefully moving their steps.
Gradually, the moss on the cave walls finally disappeared, replaced by a clear, slippery slime.
This slime is very strange, it sticks to the sole of the shoe like a gel, and you can't shake it off!
This time, Tianxing and Yue Ying couldn't stand steadily, and Yue Ying, who was walking in front, slipped under his feet and swooped forward.
And Tianxing's eyes were quick to reach out and grab Yue Ying's belt, but Yue Ying's forward force was too great, and he rolled forward with Tianxing.
Under the extremely fast heartbeat of the two of them who were frightened and did not dare to scream, they slid down the zigzag passage like a ball, uncontrollably.
There was more and more mucus on their bodies, and the speed of gliding was getting faster and faster, and they couldn't stop at all.
"Oh no~!This passage seems to have no end, and at this rate, if the end of the passage is a dead end, it will definitely crash into the stone wall and die. ”
Tianxing's heart was beating like a drum, and it almost jumped out of his throat.
However, gradually the passage became smoother, and the speed of the descent slowly slowed down, and finally the two of them used their hands and feet together, and finally stopped in embarrassment.
Tianxing shook his dazed head, and when he stood up, he saw that he was covered in mud, like a clay man. He turned his head to look at Yue Ying in front of him, he was no better, both of them were covered with that disgusting slime, it was really miserable.
"It's time for a day, what is this~!" Yue Ying felt sick in his heart, and tore off the half of the sleeve that had just been torn by the stone, parted it in half and handed it to Tianxing, and then used the remaining half to wipe the liquid on his body hard.
"I don't know, maybe it's something formed by the combination of the humid moisture in the air and some kind of special sand on the cave wall, this desert is so strange that it is possible to find anything. Tianxing guessed while wiping the mucus on his body, and suddenly saw Yue Ying's footsteps swaying from side to side unsteadily, "Yue Ying~!What's wrong with you?" Tianxing grabbed Yue Ying, and saw that his mouth and eyes were closed, his face was pale, his lips were purple, and his forehead was covered with sticky cold sweat, as if he was seriously poisoned.
Tianxing carefully put Yue Ying to the ground, untied his clothes, and found that the location where he had been bitten by the 'toothed light rat' before had turned black and purple, and some of the deeper wounds had already flowed out of black water.
"It's so poisonous~!" Tianxing sighed in his heart, "No wonder I have been leading the way in front before, it turned out to reduce the danger for me and protect my safety." ”
Tianxing quickly untied the water bladder on Yue Ying's waist, cleaned and treated the wounds on Yue Ying's body, and then took out a few packets of medicinal powder from the jade pendant on his waist, dissolved them into the water bladder, poured them into Yue Ying's mouth, and finally took out the silver needle, and carefully acupuncture the acupoints around Yue Ying's wound.
After the healing of Tianxing Half Pillar Incense, Yue Ying finally woke up.
"Young master~!" Yue Ying saw that Tianxing was healing himself, and in order to alleviate Tianxing's worries, he pretended to be safe and smiled, and wanted to do it, but his body was weak and fell to the ground.
Dark clouds shrouded Tianxing's heart, since he came to the land of earth to enter this strange desert, everything was wrong, he always felt as if he was caught in someone's conspiracy, looking at Yue Ying who was injured to protect himself in front of him, Tianxing was anxious: "Yue Ying, you can't do this again in the future, if you are injured, you have to say it in time, don't just protect me, but also take care of yourself, I have always regarded you as my brother~!"
"Hehe~" Yue Ying smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry young master, I'm worried about you, in fact, I feel much better, I'm fine." ”
"Don't be reckless, I'm a doctor, I know your injuries best, although I have temporarily suppressed the poison for you, but I can't find an antidote, I still can't cure the poison in your body. Tianxing said solemnly.
"It's okay, as long as you're still alive, let's go~!" Yue Ying tried to stand up, but still fell to the ground.
"Don't be reckless, come and I'll carry you~!" Tianxing ignored Yue Ying's objection, pulled Yue Ying up, and walked forward with his back behind him.
Yue Ying looked at the back of Tianxing, he didn't know what to say, since he was arrested as a thief when he was a child, until he met the old man Muji and regained his life, he had never been cared for.
The reason why he wanted to follow Tianxing was nothing more than to see Tianxing avenge Xiaohe, so he made such a promise, but in fact, he was also selfish, after he got the power of Tianxing, he had a premonition that there were more opportunities to follow Tianxing, and he would become strong in the future, and he could even save Xiaohe... ,
At this time, seeing that Tianxing was protecting himself regardless of his safety, and had already regarded himself as a brother, his eyes moistened at this moment......
