Chapter 29, another ambush
There was only a little light left in the cave, and the stone door was even darker, so dark that it was impossible to see what was inside. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The dark place is easy to ambush, Yao Chongzhong was afraid of being ambushed again, grabbed the little monster and said: "You said that the earth was locked up inside, why can't I see it? It's dark inside, is it a prison cell? Or what?"
The little monster said: "Grandpa Wang, Grandpa Disheng is really locked up here! Inside is a passage, not a cell, after this passage, there are several doors, among which you have to cross a burning river to get to Grandpa Disheng." ”
Yao Chongzhong said: "Clowns, no wonder you look so ugly, you all live in the dark! You can walk this kind of road, but grandfathers can't, you quickly find a way to find a torch to come over." ”
The little monster didn't answer, but walked in, Yao Chongzhong pulled him back, and said: "Clown, I knew you wanted to slip, you wanted to slip! You took grandpa for a fool, you and I will split you now." ”
Yao Chongzhong raised the axe in his hand and held it on the head of the little monster, making a gesture to split, Jiang Xiaoyu saw that he was going to step forward and pull it, and split the little monster, and no one led the way.
The little monster cried and said, "Grandpa Wang, the little one is not going to escape, the little one is going to light the lamp on the cave wall." ”
Yao Chongzhong let go of his hand and said, "Clown, you're going to light a lamp, what kind of lantern are you going to light?
The little monster said: "Grandpa Wang, the little ones are telling the truth, the little ones don't live in the dark, and in the dark, the little ones can't see anything, of course they need lamps to illuminate them." You're really afraid that the little one will run away, and you'll kill me. ”
Jiang Xiaoyu said to Yao Chongzhong: "Brother Yao, I saw a lamp on the cave wall before, maybe there is one here, you just let it be lit, and then talk about it if it is not lit." ”
Yao Chongzhong heard Jiang Xiaoyu say this, and he was no longer embarrassed for the little monster, so he asked him to light the lamp; the little monster spit flames on the cave wall, and there were really two lights on the cave walls on both sides, and there were two same lights on the cave wall a few feet away in front.
The two lamps illuminated the stone cave passage a few zhang away as if it were daytime, and Jiang Xiaoyu looked at the stone cave passage carefully, the height was only more than a zhang high, and the width was about the same.
Looking at the lamps on the cave wall again, he felt that they were about the same size and looked similar to the ones he saw before, so he asked the little monster: "Hornless demon, are these lamps on the cave wall made by you?"
The little monster said: "Back to the words of the king's grandfather, these lamps are not made by the little ones, but they are there when the little ones come here." ”
Jiang Xiaoyu looked at the passage in front of him and said, "Let's talk as we go, hornless demon, do you know who made this? How many lights are there here?"
The little monster said: "Back to the words of the king's grandfather, the little one doesn't know who did it, and the little one has asked the other brothers and leaders before, and they don't know who did it." ”
The little monster walked up to the two lamps in front of him, spewed out a stream of flames, lit the two lamps, and said, "The little ones have not counted, until the end of the passage, there are such lamps." ”
Jiang Xiaoyu knew that he was telling the truth, and it was okay for anyone to go back and count that thing, thinking that he hadn't counted it at the beginning, so he didn't ask it anymore.
Yao Chongzhong remembered something and said, "Little clown, what do you mean by talking about a 'burning river' earlier? It's not strange that there is a river underneath, but I think it's strange that the river has water, how can it burn?"
The little monster said: "Back to the words of the king's grandfather, the river is deep underground, the river is red and hot, about three lights as wide, I don't know how deep, it is also very long, both ends are sealed with black stones, to cross the river can only be crossed from a bridge three feet wide, crossing the river is even faster, otherwise the heat that washes up the bridge will be rolled under the bridge, and it will never come back, the little brother fell down when crossing the bridge, fell to the half-middle, and his body caught fire before falling into the river, and has been burned to ashes. The little one is still scared when I think about it now. ”
Jiang Xiaoyu heard the little monster say that there were all black stones, and he had a very strange feeling in his heart, the Xuantian Sword was black, and the stone cave he had walked in before was also black, but the stone wall under the ground was still black, so he said: "Brother Yao, you are well-informed, do you know what kind of river it is?"
Yao Chongzhong groaned for a long time and said, "When I was in the Big Dipper Star Palace before, I heard the old scholar say that there is such a hot river underground. The river was made up of heated-up stones, which seemed to have another name, 'stone slurry,' which I couldn't remember for a while, and at the time I thought he was joking, but now it seems that there is such a thing. ”
The passage didn't seem to be long, and after they walked for a while, at the end, the little monster turned to the right-hand side, and the same passage appeared.
The little monster walked in front to lead the way, Yao Chongzhong and Jiang Xiaoyu followed behind, and after walking through this passage, they reached the end again, turning to the left side and turning into another passage.
After turning back and forth a few times, the passage finally came to an end, and the little monster took Jiang Xiaoyu and Yao Chongzhong to a big stone cave covered with black pillars, and the big stone cave was more than ten zhang high and dozens of zhang long and wide.
On the top of the cave hangs a huge lamp, burning with black pillars of all sizes.
The hornless demon led Yao Chongzhong and them to the bottom of the lantern, and it continued to walk forward, and when it came to the middle of the lantern and the stone cave wall, it stopped, looking up at something.
Jiang Xiaoyu looked at the black pillars covered with stone caves, and felt a chill on his body, how does this place look, how does it look like a black monster.
He approached Yao Chongzhong and told him what he thought in his heart, Yao Chongzhong said: "Xiao Yu'er, I saw it for the first time, and it didn't feel very good, I don't know if you noticed, there was a raging fire burning in the lamp above, it stands to reason that those black stones should be illuminated very brightly, but I have seen all the black stones, and none of them are bright." ”
Before Yao Chongzhong's words fell, he suddenly let out a low roar and jumped towards the black stone on the left hand side of the cave wall where they were standing, and at the same time, a sharp sound of breaking wind sounded behind the black stone.
Yao Chongzhong was stunned for a while, and saw an object flying towards the little monster at a rapid pace, he immediately understood what was going on, and shouted: "Clown eight monsters, dangerous, lie down quickly!" If you want to save it, it's too late.
The little monster was walking towards the cave wall directly opposite Jiang Xiaoyu at this time, and he walked and walked down, and he didn't even have time to make a sound.
Yao Chong was startled, and jumped to the side of the little monster in a few steps, Jiang Xiaoyu had already reacted at this time, something happened to the little monster, and he wanted to step forward to take a look.
There was another sharp sound of breaking wind, this time it was towards Jiang Xiaoyu, he heard it, but he forgot to dodge, and turned around to see it subconsciously, the thing was already close, only a foot away, Jiang Xiaoyu saw that it was a sharp object on the monster's body, he was in a hurry, and grabbed the sharp object.
The sharp object in front of Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes disappeared, and he stood stunned for a while, what about the sharp object? Did Yao Chongzhong block it for himself, or did the black loach pick it up?
Jiang Xiaoyu looked at Yao Chongzhong, he looked at himself, his expression was as surprised as himself, it didn't seem to be him, he turned his head to look at the black loach, the black loach was half a foot away from him, his eyes were wide open, his tongue was sticking out, and he looked incredulous.
The black loach said: "Little fish, you don't have to look at me, I didn't do it, the thing is held in your hand, when did your body become so agile?"
Jiang Xiaoyu unfolded his palm, there was a sharp object lying in his palm, his hand shook, and he fell to the ground, thinking carefully about the scene that happened just now, this sharp object was indeed caught by himself.
Yao Chongzhong held a big axe and walked over quickly, his expression was very angry, he knew in his heart that he had just fallen for the monster's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain.
However, he quickly calmed down, in this dangerous place, in the face of a cunning enemy, anger is not a good thing, and the anger in his heart is not good, not only can he not hurt the enemy, maybe he will be scorched first.
Di Ting came to Yao Chongzhong with a horned demon in his mouth, Yao Chongzhong saw that the little demon was already dead, he shook his head and said: "Di Ting, I forgot to say, you shouldn't bite him to death, I still have something to ask him." ”
To Yao Chongzhong's surprise, Di listened to his words, but shook his head, and he said: "Di listen, what's the matter, he didn't bite him to death?"
Di Ting nodded, Yao Chong squatted down and carefully checked the little monster's whole body, there were indeed no scars on his body, how did he die, was it?
Yao Chongzhong had a hunch that things were not so simple, so he summoned the black loaches over, and he said softly: "Black loach, listen, there are a lot of stones here, maybe there are monsters hiding in the dark, you go to that place at the same time, and then go in different directions to inspect, remember to be careful." ”
Hearing the order, Di Ting and Black Loach walked towards the black stone where the horned demon was hiding, Yao Chongzhong added a sentence and said: "Black Loach, in case there is a situation, you stop, just notify me"
The black loach and the earth listened first, according to Yao Chongzhong, walked to the place where the horned demon was hiding, and then the ground listened to the side, and the black loach walked away while carefully inspecting along the outermost black stone.
Yao Chong shook his body heavily, his body grew to a height of two feet, his eyes were like torches, and he was patrolling back and forth towards the black loach and the ground.
Half an hour passed, and Black Loach and Diting inspected all the black stones on the stone cave, and found no other monsters.
