Chapter 33: Settling In
"I'm so tired..."Xia Minya wailed and hung on Chu Yue's body, she kept lifting her thin legs while crying and mourning. The road up the mountain was very rugged, and it was not usually high, and several people had already climbed for an hour, and they had just reached the bottom of the mountain. It's not that they're slow, it's just that the road is steep and twisty. If it weren't for Yin Su's affirmation, they would all suspect that they were spinning in place.
Bi Fang and Yin Su were relaxed, their wings spread, as long as they wanted, they could immediately fly to the top of the mountain. But because of this, Bi Fang, who was extremely aggrieved, also complained again and again, constantly urging the large army to hurry up. Lin Xu, the only one in this group of people who would complain, was quiet, and even mocked Xia Minya: "You are a good dish." At this time, he was sitting on a clump of vines, like a king being served, while letting the stool squirm, and at the same time instructing the fruit on both sides of the road to take the initiative to hand the fruit to him.
"Woohoo!" Xia Minya finally seemed to be unable to swallow her breath, he pointed at the tip of Lin Xu's pen and scolded, "Hey! Isn't it brother, divide your mounts and make a few more..."
"That's not possible, my mana has almost been used to save Zhou Ming before, how can I have this spare power." Lin Xu crossed Erlang's legs and smiled evilly at the other party.
Obviously looks so energetic...... Xia Minya rolled her eyes in her heart.
"Ahem, I can rest." Lin Xu wrung out the damp clothes on his body, and squeezed out the water stains on his hands when he stroked his ponytail. Chen Zifan rolled his eyes at him while whispering to Xia Minya next to him about his cheating. Several people were several degrees worse than Lin Xu, and the whole person was like taking a bath, not to mention Yin Su and Bi Fang, who were completely two chickens in the soup.
"Woo woo, who would have thought that the weather with clear skies would suddenly rain down." Yin Su's face was almost wrinkled into emojis, she dried the clothes on her body with one hand, and touched her hair with the other, and soon dried the top of her head.
Xia Minya hugged Yin Su aggrievedly, and cried while glaring at Lin Xu, who was smiling evilly at her: "Xiao Yin helps me dry it too!" ”
Yin Su laughed dryly, and looked at Yu Yuan, Chu Yue and Xie Qixuan, who didn't care much about it. As if they were used to it, the three of them just quietly cleaned up the mess, such as salvaging the food. Yu Qian said without raising his head: "It's lucky to have a cave to give us a metaphor, and this is only halfway up the mountain, so let's use this place as a stronghold for the time being, and wait for the rain to lighten up." ”
Chu Yue nodded, and took out the food in his backpack one by one without changing his face: "It's really strange these days, there have been two rainstorms without warning for a few days in a row. Could it be that the heavens have opened their eyes and that the famine is finally coming to an end? ”
Rainstorm... Yin Su pursed her lips and continued to dry the clothes for others without saying a word. Although she didn't know what the cause of the rainstorm was, she knew that the heavens would certainly not be so merciful. Bi Fang turned into a bird and quickly dried his whole body, circled his body and pretended to sleep.
"Anyway, this cave is really big, you see there are still mushrooms growing here! It's edible. Lin Xu finally straightened himself out, he straightened out his bangs and poked his head into the depths of the cave, "Hey, although I don't have the heart to explore, but isn't this a bit exaggerated?" It can't be a cave or something like that, right? ”
"Eh! Don't crow's mouth, get rid of it. Chen Zifan hurriedly shouted.
"Ahh
"Gollum, Gollum." A strange sound came from the depths of the cavern where the black rumbling was coming.
“… Uh, no. Lin Xu turned his head a little stiffly, and stayed in place like a comedy protagonist. In front of him was a huge toad, which was also slightly comic. Its back was covered in large, messy bumps, and its wide mouth was still drooling. It strode abruptly, not yet aware that someone had invaded its lair.
Xie Qixuan hurriedly got up from the stone where he was resting and said, "Don't back down, we need to be here." ”
Zhou Ming retched for a while, and said in disgust: "This thing tastes too big." But he still pulled out his weapon and prepared for battle. However, Bi Fang, who was lying on the side, didn't even bother to change his posture, waved his wings and said: "Ah, this thing looks big, but it's actually an extremely giant toad essence, and it has no attack power." Yin Su, go on, hurry up, I'll let go. ”
Just as Yin Su took out an arrow and was about to draw the bow, the large-mouthed toad opened its mouth and spat out, pouring out countless saliva smelling liquids from its mouth. Lin Xu was so frightened that he hurriedly stretched out his hand, he let the vine man at the top of the cave hang down quickly and grabbed it to block it in midair, and Yin Su and Bi Fang also quickly flew up. The rest of the people grabbed together indiscriminately, and they lay on the wall like geckos.
Lin Xu freed up a hand to cover his nose and said, ", this isn't saliva, it's phlegm!" Sure enough, the saliva that came out of this spit was not transparent and colorless like saliva, but sticky to lumps, even with a playful white-yellow color.
"Gross!" Lin Xu exaggerated a posture of nausea, and complained loudly, "How long has this toad essence been cold, this must be a thousand-year-old phlegm that has been stuck in the throat for a thousand years!" ”
Everyone retched, well, it's not really a threat, but it's disgusting!
Yin Su hurriedly pulled out his bow, and the crimson arrow spear shot quickly towards the toad's head. But the toad, who reacted half a beat slowly, turned his head, opened his mouth directly, and swallowed the arrow that he didn't know how many degrees there was. I thought it would burn from the inside out, but I didn't want a few seconds to pass, and the arrow really seemed to disappear out of thin air.
Yin Su unbelievably fired three red arrows in a row, but the result was the same, once they entered the toad's stomach, there was no reaction. The girl scratched her head a little frantically, and at last she gave up her bow and arrow, and flew straight to the toad. The environment around it was even more stench, and Yin Su held his breath, ready to reach out and burn it. But the big toad just tilted his head and looked at Yin Su who was already exerting force in his palm with an unaware look.
Well, Yin Su relented a little. She turned her head to look at her companions who had worked so hard to hang on the stone wall, and finally closed her eyes and struck the toad's face with a flame of thousands of degrees.
However, however...... After the flames dissipated, they remained the same. It stared at Yin Su with big round eyes, looking at Yin Su so innocently, and there was not a trace of burns on its body.
"Huh...?" Just as several people looked at each other, the toad opened its mouth to Yin Su again.
"Uhh The taste in its mouth was so strong that Yin Su had to pinch his nose and look carefully, even if he knew that he was breathing this air with his mouth, it was very uncomfortable.
Yin Su's amber eyes moved suddenly, and after seeing its mouth, she seemed to finally understand something. So, the girl turned her head and shouted to Lin Xu, who was hanging on the top of the cave: "You are right, it is a thousand-year-old phlegm." So, can you cure it? ”
"Huh... Ha??? You want me to give a toad to his throat???? ”
