Chapter 30: Earthfire
Because it was still early, the fire dragon beast was lying meekly in the cage, squinting its eyes, Ye Qiu was trying to look ahead, Qin Shuang hurriedly said: "It's better to stand far away and watch, you forgot that it bit your hand last time."
Ye Qiu also remembered what happened last time, this fright, Ye Qiu's anxious mood just now calmed down a little, and he said: "There is no other way, only this fire dragon beast knows the place where the earth fire erupted, so it can only try." β
Qin Shuang was still a little uneasy, and said, "Senior Brother Ye Qiu, if you really want to take this fire dragon beast out, I will help you release it, it just so happens that Master's keys are all kept here by me, but I am worried that once this fire dragon beast is released, with the strength of the two of us, I may no longer be able to control it." β
Ye Qiu thought for a while and said, "There is no other way, only by relying on the Fire Dragon Beast can there be a glimmer of hope, at this time, I can only give it a try, open the cage, Senior Brother Qin Shuang." Ye Qiu looked at Qin Shuang with a serious face.
Although Qin Shuang was familiar with Ye Qiu, it was rare to see Ye Qiu look so serious, Qin Shuang nodded, went over and took the key to the cage, and opened the cage.
The fire dragon beast didn't have any reaction, it was still lying on the ground, its eyes were still so confused and unresponsive, Ye Qiu was a little anxious, Qin Shuang didn't know how to get the fire dragon beast out for a while, since this fire dragon beast was locked in a cage, his master Luo Yan and he just tamed the fire dragon beast every day according to the previous method, and now this fire dragon beast only knows how to be obedient, but has not learned how to act according to their will.
Ye Qiu was a little anxious, and was about to walk into the cage, but Qin Shuang stopped Ye Qiu and said, "I'm still a little worried, I think it's better to do this, when my master comes back, we will find a way, it may be safer and better." β
Ye Qiu said: "I can't wait, if you waste a little more time, Yunwu Ridge will be even more dangerous." After speaking, Ye Qiu walked into the cage, and was about to step into the cage, when the fire dragon beast suddenly stood up and let out a roar, the sound was full of power, and Ye Qiu hurriedly retreated several steps in a hurry.
The fire dragon beast had already stood up at this time, the fur on its body was faintly flickering with fiery red light, the fire dragon beast walked slowly towards the outside of the cage, Ye Qiu and Qin Shuang quickly flashed to the side, the moment the fire dragon beast stepped out of the cage, it suddenly sped up its pace again, and ran towards the open space in front of it, as if it was about to fly into the air.
Ye Qiu was afraid that the Fire Dragon Beast would really run away, so he hurriedly shouted: "Stop, stop." β
The fire dragon beast heard Ye Qiu's shout, I don't know if it was because I was afraid, or if I understood Ye Qiu's words, it really stopped, turned its head, Ye Qiu cautiously walked into the fire dragon beast, and suddenly didn't know what to say, he suddenly remembered Yelusi, so he said to the fire dragon beast: "Fire dragon beast, fire dragon beast, it was Brother Yelu who asked me to take you back." β
The fire dragon beast looked at Ye Qiu blankly, and he didn't know if he understood, but he suddenly raised his head again and hissed towards the sky. Hearing this voice, if it was before, Ye Qiu would have been frightened, but now that it is the critical moment of life and death in Cloud Ridge, there is really no way out.
Ye Qiu suddenly remembered the last time he went to see the withered red fruit tree, and he had picked up a lot of red fruits on the ground and put them in his pocket, Ye Qiu took out the red fruit, and carefully stretched out his hand to hand the red fruit to the fire dragon beast, the fire dragon beast saw the red fruit, and instantly stretched out its tongue, swishing and licking the fruit in Ye Qiu's hand, and ate it clean in a few moments, but this time the fire dragon beast did not swallow Ye Qiu's hand together.
Ye Qiu saw that after the fire dragon beast ate the red fruit, it was much more docile, so he learned from the way Yelusi used to interact with the fire dragon beast in the mountain, he also stepped forward and patted the fire dragon beast's thick neck like a wooden stake, the fire dragon beast suddenly lowered its body and did not move, Ye Qiu reacted quickly, and immediately rode on the body of the fire dragon beast, hugged the neck of the fire dragon beast, and the fire dragon beast suddenly jumped up and flew towards the sky.
Qin Shuang looked at the sky in surprise and said, "Senior Brother Ye Qiu, it listened to your words and flew up." β
Ye Qiu hugged the fire dragon beast, he didn't have the heart to pay attention to Qin Shuang's shout at this time, the fire dragon beast flew higher and higher, Ye Qiu only felt that the wind in his ears was constantly whistling, making a whining sound. Ye Qiu lay on the fire dragon beast and said to the fire dragon beast's two big ears: "Fire dragon beast, go back to the mountains, red fruit trees, mountains, mountains." Ye Qiu didn't know how to communicate with the Fire Dragon Beast, he just kept repeating the place he wanted to go.
The fire dragon beast first took Ye Qiu around the vast sky several times, and there was still a faint flickering fire on his body, Ye Qiu was worried for a while, if the fire dragon beast started a fire, he would run away immediately, otherwise he would not be burned to ashes by the fire dragon beast. I don't know if it was because the fire dragon beast lost its way in the air and couldn't find its way back for a while, but after a while, the fire dragon beast turned around and flew towards the hill of the red fruit tree.
Ye Qiu said happily: "This is the direction, let's go, go back to the place where you were born." β
The fire dragon beast was taken away by Luo Yan, probably the farthest place the fire dragon beast has ever been, the fire dragon beast has fallen to the mouth of the cave where Yelusi is often with it at this time, Ye Qiu jumped down from behind the fire dragon beast, at this time it is already steaming, the earth fire is spreading in the mountains, like a stream, there are no plants in the mountains for a long time, and a few red fruit trees not far away are also crooked branches, very weak, the fire dragon beast slowly walked over, opened its mouth, and chewed the few fruits that were still green and the peel was still green.
Ye Qiu looked at everything around him, he was very surprised, all this in front of him was so different from when he first came here, at that time, although the red soil in this mountain grew few plants, but it seemed that the mountains here were also full of green, at this time, not only the ground was dry and cracked, but even the air breathed felt very thin.
Ye Qiu patted the neck of the fire dragon beast in the past, and then led the fire dragon beast towards the entrance of the cave, when he arrived at the entrance of the cave, the fire dragon beast suddenly stretched out and flew into the cave, Ye Qiu didn't react for a while, it was too late to climb on the body of the fire dragon beast, Ye Qiu had no choice but to cast a flying spell, and followed closely behind the fire dragon beast, the fire dragon beast was not flying fast in the cave, Ye Qiu just followed behind the fire dragon beast, the fluorite in the cave was faintly shining, although Ye Qiu and the fire dragon beast had flown into the cave very deep, but they didn't feel dark, but as they flew deeper and deeper, the temperature was constantly risingγ
The fire dragon beast flew for a long time, and finally stopped, the fire dragon beast lay on the edge of a smooth rock, at this time, not far away, there was a ground fire gushing continuously, and the earth fire that flowed out quickly flowed into the cracks of the four rocks in the cave, Ye Qiu thought to himself: "This is the place where the earth fire erupted." β
Ye Qiu slowly walked into the place where the earth fire erupted, only to see that the color of the earth fire flashed amazingly red, and the surrounding rocks were baked and were about to melt, Ye Qiu only felt that the temperature here was too high, fortunately, the earth fire only erupted from a hole, Ye Qiu stretched out the blue light sword, and tried the size of the cave, only to see that the earth fire suddenly spread out, almost burning Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu probably felt the depth of the shape of the hole, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and stayed away from the hole, Ye Qiu finished the matter, and was about to pull the fire dragon beast out of the cave, but when Ye Qiu went to pat the fire dragon beast, suddenly a heat emanated from the fire dragon beast's body, Ye Qiu had already seen that the color of the fur on the fire dragon beast was becoming red, Ye Qiu was startled, and hurriedly flew towards the outside of the cave, just as he had just flown away from the fire dragon beast, the fur on the fire dragon beast emitted countless firelight, if it wasn't for Ye Qiu flying fast, he would almost be roasted.
Ye Qiu flew out of the cave, the tense sweat on his body was dry, Ye Qiu looked back at the entrance of the cave, and thought to himself, this is it, the gap is here.
