Chapter 385: Between Life and Death
In Wu Hanqi's shocked gaze, the flames on the wooden board gradually extinguished, and everything quickly returned to calm, as if the scene that had just happened had never happened at all.
Seeing the flames extinguished, the green snake recovered from the scene in front of him, he glanced at the hole behind him that was tightly blocked by boulders, and then looked at the bottom of the bottomless cliff under his feet, a solemn expression appeared on his face, and said to Wu Hanqi: "Childe! This Qinghai ancestor's methods are simply endless, extremely vicious, from the moment we enter the cave, no matter how careful we are, it has been completely in his calculations. ”
"Now the cave has been blocked by boulders, and the bottom of this cliff is bottomless, we don't know if there are other traps hidden at the bottom of the cliff, we want to go to the other side of the cliff, continue to explore the cave of Qinghai ancestors, in order to pass this wooden bridge, but this wooden bridge is really weird, we want to go over it will be difficult. ”
Wu Hanqi naturally knew what the green snake said, he had used his divine sense to explore the bottom of the cliff before, but he found that his divine sense seemed to encounter some kind of obstacle, so that he couldn't investigate the situation at the bottom of the cliff at all, and he didn't know what traps were hidden at the bottom of the cliff.
Thinking of this, Wu Hanqi only hoped that once the wooden planks laid on the bridge were ignited, they would not burn again, or not all the planks on the bridge would burn, so he instructed the green snake: "Green snake! Then shoot the wooden plank just now with an arrow to see if the situation just now will occur." ”
When the green snake heard Wu Hanqi's order, he immediately understood Wu Hanqi's intentions, and immediately aimed at the wooden board before him with his bow and arrow.
However, the scene that Wu Hanqi was looking forward to did not appear, and when the arrow hit the wooden plank on the bridge, a flame ignited on the bridge deck again, instantly turning the arrow inserted on the wooden board into molten iron.
Although Wu Hanqi didn't know why the wooden board was in flames. But this scene clearly told him that his idea would not work, and he could only pin his hope on another idea, and let the green snake use a bow and arrow to experiment with each plank on the bridge one by one.
However, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, when the green snake used his bow and arrows to check all the planks on the bridge one by one. found that the wooden bridge in front of them could not be passed at all, which put Wu Hanqi and Green Snake in a stalemate.
"Childe, why don't we go back and find some ropes, shoot them with our bows and arrows to the other side, and climb over them. Seeing that Wu Hanqi and Green Snake both bowed their heads and were silent, pondering in their hearts how to get to the other side, the black tiger looked up at the cliffs on both sides, and suddenly felt a movement in his heart, and immediately blurted out a proposal.
Black Tiger's words made the green snake feel a sudden light in front of him, and immediately walked to the cliff and knocked on the stone on the cliff. With a happy face, he said to Wu Hanqi: "Childe, this method of the black tiger is absolutely feasible, as long as we fix the ends with ropes, with our strength, we can easily go to the opposite side." ”
Hearing the black tiger mention the rope, Wu Hanqi subconsciously turned his gaze to the iron cable on the wooden bridge, and an expression of sudden realization immediately appeared on his face, and said with a smile: "The three of us are really fans of the authorities! We have been entangled in the inexplicable flames on the bridge, but we have ignored that the two iron cables supporting the wooden bridge are not abnormal, and we want to go to the other side." You can make use of this rope. ”
As he spoke, Wu Hanqi held the steel cable in his hand, and his body jumped up with the momentum. Jumped on the tightrope with ease, then spread his arms and stepped on the tightrope towards the other end of the wooden bridge.
Seeing that Wu Hanqi had reached the other end of the bridge in the blink of an eye, the green snake immediately followed, and came to the other end of the bridge with the black tiger in succession, and a hole appeared in front of them again.
Look at the dark hole in front of you. Thinking of the experience of going first, Wu Hanqi said to the black tiger with a stern face: "Black Tiger! If this son is not wrong, this is just the beginning, the previous part of the road is just an appetizer, and the rest of the road will probably be even more dangerous." So you have to be vigilant for me. ”
From the moment he entered the cave, if it weren't for Wu Hanqi's caution, the black tiger and the green snake would have already fallen, and the danger experienced along the way made the black tiger still break out in a cold sweat when he thinks about it now, as if there were countless small snakes crawling on his back, making him feel the pores on his body in horror.
Realizing that the black tiger in the Xianjun Cave Mansion was extremely dangerous, in the face of Wu Hanqi's reminder, he naturally did not dare to have a trace of carelessness, and immediately nodded very seriously and replied: "Childe! Although the subordinates sometimes act very arrogantly and are a little out of tune, they have experienced so many dangers, and their subordinates do not dare to have a trace of carelessness. ”
Wu Hanqi heard the black tiger's assurance, nodded subconsciously, and walked towards the cave, but when he just entered the cave, he immediately felt a hot breath rushing towards his face, which made Wu Hanqi's heart highly alert again, and walked cautiously towards the cave.
After entering the cave, Wu Hanqi obviously felt that this cave was much more spacious than the previous cave, and after walking down the slope for a short time, a fiery red light accompanied by a smell of sulfur came from the cave, making Wu Hanqi subconsciously slow down and walk cautiously in the direction of the bright light.
Soon after, a huge magma pool appeared in front of Wu Hanqi, and he felt a hot wave of air rushing towards him, because of the previous experience, Wu Hanqi subconsciously held his breath, and quickly operated the spiritual power in his body, checked whether there were signs of poisoning, and found that the air here did not contain toxins, so he put his mind down and carefully observed the magma pool in front of him.
The magma pool in front of them is more than twenty zhang wide, fifty or sixty zhang away, the boiling and tumbling magma in the magma pool, the flames that rise from time to time, are like a roadblock, completely blocking their way forward, even if they are strong, it is impossible to easily jump over the magma pool in front of them, at this moment Wu Hanqi fell into contemplation again.
Seeing Wu Hanqi fall into deep thought, the black tiger standing on the edge of the magma pool also carefully observed the magma pool in front of him, he looked at the magma that bubbled and tumbled from time to time in the magma pool, and suddenly thought of their previous method of crossing the bridge, and immediately looked up at the top of the cave, and proposed to Wu Hanqi: "Childe, the area of this magma pool is so large, it is impossible for us to jump over and fall into it, but the subordinates feel that we can use ropes to connect the two ends, and then pass over from above the magma pool."
Black Tiger's proposal reminded Wu Hanqi of the previous process of crossing the bridge, and felt that Black Tiger's method was a good method, so he immediately took out a storage ring belonging to the ancestor of the Chen family from the "Sky Swallowing Tower", took out a bundle of ropes from it, handed it to the green snake beside him, and instructed him: "Green snake! ”
When the green snake heard Wu Hanqi's order, he hurriedly took the rope from Wu Hanqi's hand, and used a bow and arrow to shoot the rope to the opposite side of the magma pool according to Wu Hanqi's instructions, and quickly fixed it, and after confirming that there was no problem with the rope, he respectfully reported to Wu Hanqi: "Childe, the rope has been fixed, but in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, it is better to let your subordinates go first!"
"Childe, let's let my subordinates do it! This brain-wielding subordinate will not, but this pioneer son, I believe that his subordinates are still competent. The black tiger on the side saw that the green snake took the initiative to ask for help, and immediately stepped forward to hold the rope and said with a smile.
Just when the green snake held the rope and began to climb towards the other end of the magma pool, an incredible thing happened, a cluster of flames suddenly appeared in the tumbling magma pool, instantly igniting the rope in mid-air, and the burned rope made the black tiger hanging in mid-air suddenly lose its balance, and the whole person fell from mid-air.
This scene was obviously much beyond Wu Hanqi's expectations, he saw the black tiger falling from mid-air, seeing that the black tiger was about to fall into the magma pool, Wu Hanqi immediately took out a bundle of ropes from the storage ring, threw it at the black tiger in mid-air, tied up the black tiger that was falling, and pulled it hard, pulling the frightened black tiger back to the edge of the magma pool at a lightning speed.
When the rope was burned by the flames, the black tiger thought that he was really in a catastrophe this time, thinking that he had worked hard to achieve today's achievements, which made him feel very unwilling, but in this case, he had no chance of survival at all, and as a result, when he was unwilling to prepare for the fall, he felt that his waist was suddenly bound, and his body fell heavily to the ground all of a sudden.
The hot pain in his back made the black tiger subconsciously blurt out: "Am I dead, why does my back hurt so much?"
"You will feel pain! It means that you are not dead, get up quickly!" Just when the black tiger was talking to himself about whether he had fallen, Wu Hanqi's familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears, making him subconsciously open his eyes and see Wu Hanqi standing in front of him, with an extremely incredible expression on his face.
Confirming that the pain in his back was real, the black tiger was sure that he had not fallen this time, thinking back to the scene just now, he felt that he did not have a trace of strength in his body for the rest of his life, and it was not until a long time later that he slowly got up and thanked Wu Hanqi gratefully: "Childe, thank you for saving your life!"
Wu Hanqi heard the black tiger's thanks, thinking of the process just now, which made his heart also rise with a feeling of palpitations, and immediately told the black tiger: "I told you before that you must be cautious! As a result, you still didn't listen to my words, this incident gives you a lesson, I hope you can always remember it!"
Black Tiger thought that he had taken Wu Hanqi's advice to heart, but the experience just now did make him realize that he still didn't pay attention to Wu Hanqi's orders, let alone the dangers in this Immortal Monarch Cave Mansion, but this experience was definitely unforgettable for him, and his big personality had changed a lot, and he really became one of Wu Hanqi's right-hand men in the battle for domination of the Tianqian Continent. )
