Chapter 205: Distress
After learning about a series of things about the Iron War Mercenary Group, because they were unwilling to join them, Wukong and the others chose to leave Qingping Town and continue their journey to the Wind Empire, leaving Qingping Town far behind, Wukong and the others were still walking on the road non-stop, and this walk was two days.
The territory of the Wind Empire is still quite large, and it has been two days since leaving Qingping Town, and Wukong and the others have not encountered any towns, and in the past two days, everyone has been sleeping in the wild.
This walk was almost another morning, and the scenery along the way was still quite beautiful, but everyone had no intention of appreciating it, and everyone was tired of walking, and everyone found that they were a little hungry and thirsty, so they stopped, intending to rest here for a while, and then continue to move forward.
They were to be used as horses to carry them along, and when they had settled down, they found a shady place and sat down. Then Wukong habitually went to look for food, and without much effort, he returned "victoriously", as long as Wukong, Feng Xueyao and other women, they didn't worry about food along the way. The same Wukong's craftsmanship is also excellent, and every time Wukong bakes it, it will make them eat with relish.
After everyone was full of food and drink, and rested for a while, everyone got up and continued to move forward, this walk went until it was dark, when everyone had to sleep in the wild today, Su Ruxuan's eyes were sharp, but she found a cave, living in a cave, it is better than sleeping on the cold ground, of course, found the cave, Wukong was also a little surprised, everyone ran over at once, came to the cave, this cave is still quite deep, it is dark inside, it will make people subconsciously think that there may be any danger inside, so, as their bodyguard, Wukong at this time to show his obligationsAfter lighting the torch with a fire spell, he slowly walked in.
This cave is still quite big, Wukong carefully checked it, and found that there was no breath in it, thinking that there should be no people or beasts in it, and when Wukong told them these things, everyone was relieved. Obviously, tonight means that he will be sleeping in this cave.
Soon, this relatively dark stone cave suddenly had a little more fire. After lighting up the cave for a few minutes, everyone found a more comfortable position in the cave and used it as their bed. And Wukong also found a lot of hay from outside and came back and made simple beds, so that Feng Xueyao, who loves cleanliness, can also sleep peacefully. Feng Xueyao thanked Wukong a little shyly.
After nightfall, Wukong followed his own wishes and went to practice, so he had to leave the cave and go outside, of course, Wukong still went to keep vigil for the three girls in the cave. And the place where Wukong sleeps is the entrance of the cave, for him, the cold at night will not affect him much, as long as he is given a place, as soon as his eyes are closed, Wukong can fall asleep, even if he is lying on the cliff with his hands, he can also fall asleep.
At this time, Su Ruxuan stopped Wukong, and Wukong looked at her with some curiosity: "Xuan'er, is there something wrong?"
"By the way, Wukong, I found this cave, it's so deep, I think we should go and investigate inside, I think the danger may be inside!" Su Ruxuan also carefully observed this cave before, but because she didn't have much strength, she could only look for Wukong to help.
Hearing this, Wukong thought about it, Su Ruxuan's words were also right, so Wukong left Xiaofang and Feng Xueyao behind, and he and Su Ruxuan went to the depths of this cave to investigate what was going on!
So the four of them sacrificed their sleep time and began to investigate this cave, Wukong and Xiaofang walked in the front, and the torches in their hands were like a shiny little star.
This cave is really big and deep, after walking for a while, everyone suddenly found that the road surface became sloping, it should be a downhill road, and there is a bend in it, which is not as simple as everyone imagined.
The surroundings were suddenly quiet, in addition to the footsteps of other people, the clear dripping sound in the cave could also be heard, maybe the girl was born a little afraid of dark things, Feng Xueyao, who walked in the middle and back, trembled slightly, and her body involuntarily leaned towards Wukong's side, and Su Ruxuan lived in a dark environment for a long time before she met Wukong again, so this girl will not be afraid of this so-called darkness, let alone Xiao Fang, who has the terrifying power that even Wukong is amazed by.
Going downhill, everyone walked for almost half a pillar of incense, and felt that the ramp seemed to be getting steeper and steeper, and there was a fork in the road, so that Wukong had to stop, looking at the road on the left and right, Wukong was a little overwhelmed, and subconsciously looked at Su Ruxuan and Feng Xueyao hoping that they could tell themselves which side to go.
Facing this fork in the road, Su Ruxuan was also embarrassed, she didn't know which way to go, first looked at the road on the left, and then looked at the road on the right, the two roads seemed to be no different, they were all endless darkness.
"Wukong, why don't we take the left road first, if there is any danger inside, we can also retreat immediately and take the right road!" Feng Xueyao said lightly at this time.
"Alright then, let's try the left side first!" With that, Goku took a step and walked towards the "left".
"Wukong, you're on the right!" Seeing Wukong go wrong, Feng Xueyao felt a little crying and laughing, and reminded in that sweet voice. Su Ruxuan laughed softly, secretly saying that Wukong would make a mistake even such a small thing.
Stopping, Wukong looked, took a step back, turned his head, and said honestly, "I'm sorry, I made a mistake, I should have gone this way!"
Looking at Wukong's slightly silly appearance, Feng Xueyao also smiled lightly and followed, everyone else was striding forward, and Feng Xueyao, who was born as a princess, was Sven in terms of language and demeanor, so her steps were relatively small, and in this kind of gloomy cave, it was completely impossible to have no danger. At this time, Feng Xueyao tripped over something. Leaning forward slightly, he suddenly felt something wrapped around his ankle under his feet, and before he could struggle, he was swept away by his clothes.
"Ahh
dragged a little, only to see Feng Xueyao being pulled closer to another fork in the road, and just took off it straight and stopped at a distance of about a few meters, and Wukong also rushed here as soon as possible.
At this moment, with the faint light of the fireball, Wukong vaguely saw the culprit. It was a strange-looking mushroom, the size of two people, with two snake heads on both sides of the mushroom looking like two hideous snake heads, and its mouth was slightly open, revealing two fangs. At the same time, it stretched out a soft side branch and quickly wrapped around Feng Xueyao's slender waist, and it became tighter and tighter. It was difficult for Feng Xueyao to retreat, and Feng Xueyao struggled slightly, and the branches became tighter and tighter.
"Bastard, let go of Xue Yao!" Wukong panicked, and didn't dare to do anything else, threw the torch in his hand aside, ran over, and pulled the soft branch, but this branch seemed soft, no matter how hard Wukong tried, the branch was also getting tighter and tighter, but it didn't make Wukong die.
"Enlightenment...... Realize...... Wukong...... Hurry up, don't ...... Want...... Tube...... Me!" Feng Xueyao's face turned pale due to being entangled in the branches, and when she saw Wukong who was saving herself, she said with some difficulty.
"No, I'm not going to leave you alone. Wukong refused to give up at all, and said categorically. At this time, Su Ruxuan and Xiaofang also rushed here, seeing the plant in front of them, Su Ruxuan's face changed and said: "Fierce tooth snake mushroom!" "Fierce tooth snake mushroom is one of the strange plants, like to grow in some dark environments, temperament is very fierce, like to stretch the branches outside, once something touches it, it will immediately use the branches to entangle the other party only, so that the other party can not get out, with a big mouth like a snake, sucking the prey into a dry corpse, it has made many warriors suffer.
At this time, Wukong, as if he didn't hear it, was still pulling hard, who knew that the fierce tooth snake mushroom not only did not put down the phoenix, but also stretched out a rattan to entangle Wukong, Wukong's eyes were fast, and he reached out and grabbed the rattan, but the rattan also wrapped Wukong's palm.
"Damn! Look at me!" Seeing this, Wukong's entangled hand suddenly burned, wanting to burn the rattan, but what Wukong didn't know was that the fierce tooth snake mushroom was not afraid of flames, and it was difficult for flames to burn it.
"Xiao Fang, help quickly!" Su Ruxuan subconsciously saw Xiao Fang, and she found that Feng Xueyao's consciousness had begun to gradually blur. Xiao Fang didn't hesitate, her eyes were cold, and her scarlet eyes seemed to be lit with two flames, turning into a black light and bursting out.
At this moment, the fierce tooth snake mushroom withered, and the rattan also relaxed, thinking that Xiao Fang directly stabbed its vital part, but Wukong didn't have time to step forward to check what was going on with Feng Xueyao, only to see Feng Xueyao's eyes closed, she should have fainted, and at this time, a rattan suddenly came out of the shadows, wanting to wrap around Feng Xueyao again.
Wukong didn't let the same situation happen again, he rushed over at a faster speed than the rattan, and hugged Feng Xueyao in his arms, but before he could escape, the rattan suddenly wrapped around Wukong's waist and dragged the two into the darkness
