Chapter 47: The Demon Clan Appears (Happy Dragon Boat Festival)
Scorching heat, this is Zhou Ming's first feeling. Countless heat waves mixed with a little spark will come to the face every once in a while, as if breathing, steady and regular.
It was pitch black, and all I could see was a little spark in the air.
"Senior Brother Zhou, where are you?" Xiao Qi's voice came from behind, with a hint of trembling.
Zhou Ming hurriedly took out the energy spar from Elder Wang from the ring, and a faint halo emanated from the spar in Zhou Ming's hand, slightly illuminating Zhou Ming's side, and the visibility was about 1 meter or more. Zhou Ming turned around and said in the direction where Xiao Qi's voice came from: "Xiao Qi, don't move! I'll come to you!"
Because he didn't know what the surrounding terrain was, Zhou Ming asked Xiao Qi to stay where he was, in case he encountered dangers such as traps or deep pits when he walked around. He first rotated around with his hand holding the energy crystal, and found that one meter to his left was the top rock face where the rock wall was connected to the top rock face one meter above his head, and the wall was not visible on the right. Zhou Ming was half-squatting on the ground while slowly walking towards Xiao Qi's location.
"Senior Brother Zhou, I saw you!" Xiao Qi said as he looked at Zhou Ming in the faint white light not far away. Originally, before the teleportation, Zhou Ming and Xiao Qi were not far apart, so Zhou Ming walked seven or eight steps and saw Xiao Qi standing there.
"Are you okay, let's see if there is anything wrong with your body first?" Zhou Ming was worried that something was wrong with Xiao Qi when he teleported. So he asked Xiao Qi to check himself first, and then move on to the next step after he had nothing to do.
Zhou Ming motioned for Xiao Qi to follow behind him, and while walking slowly, he analyzed his current speculation to Xiao Qi, "First of all, according to my observation, we should be in a cave, maybe in the interior of the mountain, or in the depths of the earth. Secondly, it is very hot and dry, and there are heat currents from time to time. So, the only clue we have now is to move in the direction of the heat current, and see what the hell this place is, maybe we can find the clues to the disappearance of your first two senior brothers!"
In order to ensure safety, Zhou Ming handed the energy spar in his hand to Xiao Qi and asked him to walk in front, while he took out two holy spears and followed closely behind on guard.
There was no danger along the way, but the two did not relax their guard in the slightest, and walked for a long time, but they felt hotter and hotter. Finally, the faint red light slowly lit up in front of them, and as the two of them moved forward, the red light became brighter and brighter, and at the same time, the wheel corridor of the cave gradually appeared. It seems that the exit is coming!
After having the light, the speed of the two of them also increased, Zhou Ming put away the energy crystal, pulled Xiao Qi behind him, and quickly took Xiao Qi to get close to the hole that was thrown into the fiery red light not far away!
Although Zhou Ming and the others were ready to deal with all kinds of emergencies, they were still shocked by the scene outside the cave entrance! Feeling the heat wave on the shop, a chill rose on the backs of the two!
Outside the entrance of the cave was an empty underground cave, a magma lake the size of a football field flowing in the center of the cave, constantly bubbling and bubbling, and the first thing Zhou Ming and the others saw was not these, but dry bones all over the ground! Densely filling the shore, roughly estimated that there were no less than 10,000 corpses! There was not even a place to stay.
The fiery red light reflected on the white bones, giving people a terrifying feeling. The bones were covered with all kinds of torn clothes, and weapons and items of various shapes were scattered in the piles of bones, some damaged, others still smooth and bright!
Zhou Ming's eyes lit up! It doesn't matter how the countless people here died, but the relics after their death are also left here! Among them, there is no shortage of high-level treasures just from the appearance! This is a huge fortune!
Xiao Qi was frightened by the sight at the same time, but also very excited, so many ownerless treasures! If he brought them all back, I am afraid that there would be more treasures than the entire sect! He was a little moved, but he didn't forget to look at Zhou Ming, as if waiting for Zhou Ming's opinion.
And, in the magma not far away, a pair of blood-red eyes were staring at Zhou Ming and the others from afar, if you looked closely, you would see Sen Sen's smile and irrepressible excitement from those eyes.
Zhou Ming stepped out, stepped on the pile of white bones, bent down and picked up a sword next to the white bones, and looked at it. Seeing this scene in the distance, the smile grew stronger and stronger.
Xiao Qi saw Zhou Ming pick up the sword, so he also stood on the pile of bones, ready to bend down to pick up the treasure. Unexpectedly, he was stopped by Zhou Ming raising his hand.
I saw Zhou Ming throw the sword in his hand to the side and said, "The teacher told me since I was a child that things on the ground can't be picked up casually. And I, since I was a child, have been a good student who has won little safflower every year. So I listened to the teacher very much, so, Xiao Qi, do you want to be a good person like me? Then you can't pick things up!"
Xiao Qi listened a little as if he didn't understand, but he knew that Senior Brother Zhou meant to tell him not to pick up these things. And the treasures all over the ground and Senior Brother Zhou's words, he chose to listen to Senior Brother Zhou's words!
"Forget it! It's uncomfortable to stay here, let's go back! Follow the opposite direction of the road you came, you should be able to get outside!" Zhou Ming deliberately turned around and walked towards the entrance of the cave when he came. Xiao Qi followed behind Senior Brother Zhou with a little confusion and didn't ask anything.
The smile in the eyes of the magma has long since disappeared, replaced by anxiety and doubt. Finally, it couldn't help it!
"Roar~!" an angry roar came from the magma lake. A humanoid monster more than 2 meters tall sprang out of the magma, stepped on the surface of the magma, and faced the direction of Zhou Ming and the others.
Zhou Ming turned around and looked at the monster as expected.
Strictly speaking, this guy can't be called a "monster", because, if you ignore the two sharp horns on the top of his head, as well as the blood-red eyes and sharp teeth, his face is completely a human face, and I have to mention that he looks more handsome than Zhou Ming. He was also similar in size to a human, wearing a torn piece of armor, but with sharp fingernails on his hands and a long tail behind him, the end of which resembled an arrow.
He couldn't move any further, for his hands and feet were all imprisoned in thick chains. He was unable to cast his skills because he had a black token floating above his head, and a transparent barrier was released underneath the token to wrap around him. Maybe because of time, the barrier was a little broken, and there were cracks everywhere, but he still couldn't break free!
"It turned out that you did the ghost! I seem to have an answer to my troubles for so many days!" Zhou Ming looked at the creature in front of him hatefully.
At this time, Xiao Qi seemed to remember something, and sat down on the ground all of a slump, his hand trembling and pointing at the person on the magma, and stammering: "Demon ...... Demon!...... Demons!"
