Chapter 5: The Blue Lake
Giant panda Zhang Wenqing's condition is very bad, and only by rushing to the red lion statue as soon as possible can he get timely treatment. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoBut in this dark cave, what direction should we go?
Just when Liu Zhen and the others didn't know where to go, a flash of fire flashed in the darkness in the distance.
"Look! There is fire over there! It looks like the light of a torch!" Xu Heshun was the first to notice the light that was coming from far and near, rapidly coming in their direction.
The torch rushed over quickly, and at the same time, it kept shaking in mid-air, trying its best to drive away the blue-winged bats in mid-air.
Liu Zhen looked up, and there were many shadows in the sky above the light mask, and there were definitely a lot of blue-winged bats. Liu Zhen guessed that it was either because of the smell of blood or because of the excessive noise that they had alarmed these bat monsters just now. Fortunately, there were not many of them at the beginning, and if so many blue-winged bats were attacking them at the same time, the consequences would be absolutely unimaginable.
At this time, the firelight had already come outside the light mask, "Quick! open the light mask and let me in!" The cat-faced human body and bumpy figure are none other than the catwoman Jiang Yue in the Red Elf Illusory Beast.
Everyone hurriedly stepped forward and picked up Catwoman. A burst of yellow light fluctuated, and the light mask once again protected everyone.
Jiang Yue didn't care about the foul smell on the ground, sat down, and gasped heavily, "It's so dangerous!
"You're not injured, are you?, are there any other companions nearby?" Liu Zhen walked up to Jiang Yue and asked.
"Yo! it's you, big wolf dog!" Catwoman Jiang Yue looked up at Liu Zhen and smiled, "Thank you for caring about me so much." ā
"Ahem!" Liu Zhen found that Sun Weiwei on the side had a bad face, and hurriedly coughed twice, "They are all partners, and they don't care about anything." Don't say it's useless, you haven't answered my question yet. ā
"Oh!" Jiang Yue glanced at Sun Weiwei playfully with Liu Zhen's gaze, "Okay! Answer the question, I wasn't injured, I was just startled by these strange bats, as for whether there were other people nearby, I don't know, I entered the Silent Grotto by myself." ā
"Can we find a way out first!I see that Wen Qing's state seems to be getting worse and worse!" Zhang Yunshan, who was holding a giant shield in his hand, interjected anxiously, he just wanted to find the red lion statue as soon as possible.
"A way out?" Catwoman Jiang Yue hammered her legs, tilted her head and said, "If you say a way out of this bat cave, I probably know where." ā
According to Jiang Yue, she was the first group of people to arrive at the entrance of the Silent Grotto, that is, the group that was rescued by the four elders of the Red Elves on the way. However, she did not enter the grotto immediately, but rested for a few hours before setting out on her own road.
She had just searched for a long time in this bat cave, and found a different kind of cave entrance! There seemed to be some carvings at the entrance of the cave, but it should have been destroyed a long time ago, and only three broken stone pillars stood at the entrance of the cave. In addition, on the edge of the hole, some traces of slashing and axe can be seen.
"I just wanted to go into the cave to take a closer look, but before I could do it, I was attacked by a big bat monster, but luckily I reacted quickly, otherwise I would have died. Just running and hiding until I saw the light mask you have here, and I found it. Catwoman Jiang Yue still looked a little apprehensive.
Everyone was in high spirits after listening to Jiang Yue's words, if there is a difference, it is very likely that it is a way out, even if it is not, they must now be a dead horse as a live horse doctor!
So, everyone immediately set off and searched in the general direction pointed by Catwoman Jiang Yue.
Along the way, there were more and more blue-winged bats hovering overhead, constantly hitting the light mask. But the attacks of these blue-winged bats are more than a notch lower than those of the big monster fish in the lake. Although the rhinoceros Zhang Yunshan looked a little tired, he still persevered.
However, the direction Jiang Yue pointed to was only a general position, and there was still a big deviation from the fact that she had just escaped for her life. Everyone arrived at the other side of the cave wall, and searched for more than half an hour before they found the hole that Jiang Yue said.
Liu Zhen held the torch and carefully examined the broken stone pillars, which should have been carved with some pattern before, but now they are blurry and unrecognizable. And at the entrance of the cave, I really want Jiang Yue to say, there are many traces of swords.
Everyone no longer wasted time, and after the rhinoceros Zhang Yunshan received the protective light shield, he immediately rushed into the stone cave with a torch.
Liu Zhen, Xu Heshun, and Zhang Yunshan were at the end, holding their weapons tightly to guard the entrance of the cave to prevent those blue-winged bats from rushing in.
However, although those blue-winged bats seemed to want to rush down, they seemed to be afraid of something, and just hovered outside the hole and let out unwilling screams.
Liu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he didn't have to fight these nasty bat monsters, but it saved a lot of trouble. However, the three people who pressed back still didn't dare to take it too lightly, and slowly retreated for about 10 meters before turning around and retreating quickly.
There was only one way, and everyone had nothing to discuss, just keep speeding up and moving forward.
Liu Zhen raised his torch as he walked, checking the situation in the cave. Liu Zhen found that the traces of artificial repair could be clearly seen in this stone cave, and the traces of the sword were deeper and deeper into the cave.
This is probably the shortcut cave where the elves led to the Flame Pass before! The traces of these battles should be left by the great battle three thousand years ago, Liu Zhen kept guessing in his heart.
Everyone continued to advance towards the depths of the cave, but fortunately, there was no fork in the cave, and the ground was relatively flat, and their speed was not slow along the way.
However, the physical condition of giant panda Zhang Wenqing seems to be getting worse and worse. When everyone was resting for a while, Sun Weiwei checked again, and the limbs of the injured part of the little girl's bones were already swollen. Although she was still unconscious, her frowning brow showed that she was in great pain.
When everyone saw this situation, it was inconvenient for them to rest more, so they had to continue to speed up.
Liu Zhen and a few of them entered this cave, it should have been almost a day, and the influence of the dark environment on the mentality was becoming more and more serious. Liu Zhen felt that he was a little nervous now, and he was still a little irritable.
Just when Liu Zhen was about to say something to alleviate this bad mood, Zhang Yunshan, a rhinoceros holding Zhang Wenqing in front, suddenly let out an excited cry, "Look, everyone! There is light ahead!"
Everyone looked fixedly, and in the depths of the dark cavern in front of them, there was really a blue glimmer. The crowd hurriedly quickened their pace and rushed forward.
After a while, the group came to the exit of the cave, and the glimmer of light came from outside the cave. But no one rushed out of the hole, all of them looked around, and after many life and death adventures, they became cautious, but they were no longer so reckless.
The blue light was not in a place where it could be seen directly from outside the cave, but on the side of the cave, blocked by a large stone protruding. For a while, no one could see clearly.
Liu Zhen saw this situation, so he came to the front with Xu Heshun, told everyone to wait for their news, and then walked out of the cave with the wolf soul in his hands. Xu Heshun followed behind Liu Zhen so that he could respond at any time.
Liu Zhen was actually not so nervous in his heart, because judging from the smell and sound, there was no danger ahead for the time being.
The two people who walked out of the cave slowly advanced for about 10 meters, and after bypassing the big rock, they finally saw the bright situation clearly, and they were stunned on the spot for a while.
Behind the big boulder was a small lake, from which the blue light emanated. There was a thin layer of mist floating on the lake, flowing slowly, and there were some dots in the mist, flickering and flickering, making the blue light as if it were real and illusory. However, the situation on the other side of the lake is not clear for the time being.
"What kind of place is this?" Liu Zhen said softly.
Giant Python Xu Heshun was also a little blind, "Brother Liu Zhen, let's go forward and take a look." "The road ahead is unclear, so we still have to continue to investigate.
The two walked along the edge of the lake, and before they had walked 100 meters, they were at the end, and there was a bright stone wall in front of them, and there was no road.
At this time, Liu Zhen is not calm, there is no way, is it possible to swim in the lake? In case of repeated danger, he will become a burden to this landlubber.
"What should I do?" Liu Zhen had to ask Xu Heshun.
"Look at the entrance to the cave, it used to be passable. Xu Heshun was as calm as ever, "Let's go back now, just now we just looked at the road ahead, this time let's take a closer look at whether there are any boats on the shore!"
The two of them turned around again and looked for it along the bank of the river. It didn't take long for me to find out.
"Brother Xu, what do you think this is?" Liu Zhen pointed to the stone floor tiles exposed under a fog on the shore and said, although the fog was not thick just now, the light was not so bright, so the two of them didn't notice it when they first walked over.
"It looks like a bridge!" Xu Heshun stepped forward, first clicked a few times on the stone floor tiles with a python spear, and found that it was quite stable, so he raised his foot and planned to step on it to try, but was dragged by Liu Zhen.
"Brother Xu, if there is any poison in this fog, we don't know, don't go over it first. Let's look for it again, maybe there is another way out!"
Xu Heshun is right to think about it, it's better to find it clearly. So the two made a mark on the ground nearby to make it easier to find, and continued to look for another way.
Until the two of them returned to the entrance of the cave where everyone was, they found nothing else.
Liu Zhen and the others returned to the cave and told the others about the situation ahead.
After a little discussion, they decided to try the place that seemed to be a bridge, and it was the only place that seemed to be a way out. If there is no way, they will probably have to find someone to swim across the lake and find out what is going on on the other side.
