Chapter 9: Cave IV
The blood-red spear was carried on the shoulder by the cockroach, the sharp tip of the spear
The blood-red spear was carried on the shoulder of the cockroach, and the sharp tip of the spear swallowed a breathtaking light. Like a ferocious ancient dragon, ready to barre its terrifying fangs and bite its enemies.
From time to time, many scattered stones were kicked by the big soles of the cockroach, and the sharp stone ridges did not leave a trace of scars on the surface of his feet and soles of his feet, but could only roll and jump in all directions with a grunt, occasionally hitting the wide walls on all sides or the rocks on the high bare ground, making a soft "dong" sound.
The cockroach did not walk fast, maintaining its usual high vigilance since entering the cave, carefully observing all the movements around it.
As I walked, the cave became more and more open, from a radius of fifty zhang to a radius of one hundred zhang, and then to the current circle of five hundred zhang. In just a few hundred steps, the cockroach stood at the mouth of a huge beehive.
Countless dense caves of various sizes occupy the entire four walls of the cave in an irregular manner, and the ground and overhead are no exception. The little black and gray devils floated around, busy.
"Distinguished guests, welcome to my kingdom. A soft voice suddenly sounded in Jiao's mind.
"Adversary?"
"Hehe, our Ancient Demon Clan, like your Great Wilderness Beast Clan, and those cunning humans, all have names. You can call me Louis. ”
The blood-red spear was slowly moved to his chest, the tip of which was pointed at the largest cavern in the hive. The cave, which is 100 feet in diameter, declares its supremacy to all living beings, including the cockroach.
"Alas, what a very unfriendly guest! Friends of the Great Wilderness Beast Clan, we Ancient Demon Clan are very enthusiastic. Fine wines, fresh fruit and flesh are waiting for you!"
As if they had suddenly received Louis's order, the little devils all put down the small green and red stones in their hands and flew quickly towards the cockroach.
Seeing that the blood-red war spear in Jiao Jiao's hand suddenly spit out a half-foot-long red practice light, the voice sounded in Jiao Jiao's mind again: "Distinguished guest, please don't misunderstand. The little ones are lining up to welcome you. ”
Sure enough, the little devils lined up in two columns one by one, stretching for nearly ten miles. With their arms crossed over their chests and their heads bowed, the little devils were respectful.
"What do you want to do?" the majestic voice of the cockroach echoed in the hive for a long time. The little devils didn't seem to hear at all, and didn't move.
"Honorable guest, I'm welcoming you?!Are you blaming me for my poor manners?......" Louis suddenly sighed, "We demons have been trapped in this cave for too long. The original carp soul incense, sprinkled water and prayer flowers have long been used up, and the ceremony is a bit simple, which makes the guests laugh. ”
"There's no need to be cowardly, many of your people have died at my hands, don't you want to kill me to avenge them?"
"Do you mean the Red Soul or those unconscious Black Claws?" a crisp laugh sounded as a string of beads fell on a silver plate, "The Red Soul has long wanted to die, if you don't kill him, he will kill himself soon." As for Black Claw, it's not our demon clan at all, if it's dead, it's dead, what does it have to do with me?"
"Distinguished guest, do you have any doubts? I sincerely hope that you will come to my kingdom. ”
"Since you welcome me so much, why don't you come out and greet me yourself?"
"The concubine has long had this intention, but she is unable to move and cannot come to greet her, so I hope the guests will forgive me. ”
Jiao Yan snorted coldly, "I'm afraid I'm not tied up in a hole and can't get out, right?"
"Hehe, since the guest knows, he shouldn't blame the concubine. We Ancient Demons have inadvertently offended one of the greatest beings in the world, and his wrath has forced us to remain in this dark cave for more than 7,000 years. For countless years, only a Great Desolate Beast or Human came in every few hundred or even thousands of years, and we were so lonely. Your presence here today is to me the greatest gift of the gods. Come in, and I'll be sure to bring you my best wine and food. ”
"You think I'm going to believe you?" the red soul you mentioned had been very hospitable to me, but with sharp claws and hard bone spurs. ”
"Distinguished guest, I said, we are so lonely. We've only seen creatures out there a few times for countless years, and the poor Red Soul spirit has long since collapsed. The beauty and goodness were lost in the long and endless years, and all that was left in his mind was destruction and destruction. Just half a month ago, he tried to plunge his sharp claws into his fragile throat, but I found out in time, and after a long time of hard persuasion, I reluctantly gave up the idea of seeking death. I didn't expect ...... The other day ......," Louis sighed deeply again, "Perhaps, this is the ending he always wanted!"
"You guys are so affectionate. ”
"Alas, we have been together for so many years, and we are like relatives. As soon as he left, my heart suddenly emptied a lot. Oh, distinguished guest, I'm not blaming you. He didn't die by your gun, he died in his own shattered thoughts. ”
Obviously, Louis thought that Jiao Ji had ended the life of the Red Soul with the blood-red spear in his hand.
"Distinguished guest, what are you waiting for? Come to my palace quickly, the concubine has been waiting for a long time. ”
Jiao Yan smiled, it was a blessing or a curse, and it was a disaster that could not be avoided. At the moment, there is no other way to go, but to go straight with a gun.
"Okay, I'll do it. The cockroach took a step, and under the welcome of the little devils, he soon came to the giant cave.
"Distinguished guests, come in quickly, the wine and food have been waiting for a long time. ”
"Is it food and wine or a rain of arrows? "When the time comes to see your demon god, remember to tell him who killed you. The second half of the sentence Jiao Yan didn't speak, and thought silently in his heart.
"Guest...... No, Generalissimo Jiao, the concubine is sincere, where did the guns and arrows come from?"
"You know I'm the Generalissimo?"
"For countless years, humans have come in, and you Great Wilderness Beasts have come in. The Great Wilderness Beast Clan who came in was either a marshal or a generalissimo. If you can kill the Red Soul, you will naturally be the Generalissimo. ”
The cockroach thought to himself, had no elder ever come in, was Louis unaware, or was it true?
Taking a step, the cockroach slowly walked into the majestic and tall cave. A slender and slender figure sat on a white jade throne full of patterns. The throne was wide and tall, and the figure was weak and thin.
"Generalissimo Jiao, don't stare at the concubine like this, the concubine will be shy. Louis chuckled.
"Are you a demon? aren't you a demon?" asked Louis, who looked at Louis, who looked very much like a human southern woman.
"Hehe, of course I'm a demon, honorable Generalissimo Jiao. Generalissimo, please sit down and dine, and we will talk while we eat. ”
In the middle of the cave, a large rectangular stone table is filled with dishes. Louis scurled down the stone steps in front of the throne and walked to the stone table. Pulled out a stone chair and made a gesture of invitation to the cockroach.
Jiao Yan was not polite and sat down. Louis walked around the stone table and sat down across from the cockroach.
"Generalissimo Jiao, taste it. The cuisine of our demon race is in no way inferior to your Great Wilderness Beast Clan and humans. Louis said with a smile.
In response to Louis's warm greeting, Jiao Yan neither moved his chopsticks nor spoke.
"Generalissimo Jiao, what's the matter?
"I'm just scared of ......"
"Afraid of poison?" Louis laughed with a flutter. Pick up a piece of emerald green preserved fruit and chew it crisply in your mouth.
The chopsticks follow the chopsticks, Louis picks up which dish, and the cockroach also picks up the dish. Feeling the sometimes sweet and sometimes mellow taste in the mouth, Jiao Yan praised a rare sentence:
"It's really delicious. ”
"If it's delicious, eat more. Louis picked up a piece of dried meat and gently placed it on the white dish in front of the cockroach.
"Don't worry, I've eaten this dish, you don't have to be afraid. ”
The dried meat is smooth in the mouth, fat but not greasy. After eating, the cockroach suddenly asked, "What kind of meat is this?"
"Human flesh. ”
Hearing Louis's answer, Jiao Yan frowned.
"If it's a human, you're going to treat it with the meat of our Great Wilderness Beast Clan?"
"They humans regard you beasts like chickens and dogs, and it is common for them to eat your flesh and drink your blood. On the contrary, so do you Great Wilderness Beast Clan. This is originally a world where I eat you and you eat me. ”
"So...... When are you going to do it?"
"Why do you always think I'm going to kill you. Didn't I say it a long time ago, I welcome you very sincerely. Louis stroked his forehead and said helplessly.
"Where's your rope?"
"It's always there, but you don't see it. ”
The blood-red spear hummed in the gnarled big hand. "This gun has been stained with a lot of blood, the blood of your demons. Today I want to see if I can add another revenant under the gun. ”
The spear instantly stabbed into Louis's throat, and Louis did not dodge or dodge, two green jade fingers clamped the tip of the spear, and it was difficult for the blood-red war spear to advance an inch.
"I'm kind, generalissimo, don't get me wrong. ”
"It's come to this, and we have to make mistakes. ”
The cockroach withdrew the tip of the spear and changed the stab to the shot. Before the wind could be heard, the gun had already whipped Louis on the shoulder.
Louis frowned slightly, and his index and middle fingers slammed into the blood-red war spear, and the palm of the cockroach was numb for a while, and the blood-red war spear took off his hand and went to the sky.
The cockroach stepped on the stone table and jumped upward. Just as Jiao Jiao's right hand was about to grasp the body of the gun, a slender figure stood in front of him. Louis grabbed the blood-red spear and turned to shoot at the cockroach.
Looking at the war spear coming at great speed, Jiao Yan hurriedly moved and dodged, but Louis moved too fast, and with a "snap", the war gun accurately hit Jiao Jiao's right shoulder.
"I'm so kind to treat you, without the slightest abruptness. Why are you determined to kill me?"
"I'm not worried if you don't die. ”
"Hehe, it is said that our demon clan is the most ferocious and ruthless, I think, it is far worse than your Great Wilderness Beast Clan! Just now you shot me, and I returned your blow, which is considered to be flattened. But the cost of the dishes ...... Take your gun. ”
"It turned out to be for my gun. Jiao Yan sneered.
"Originally, I had good intentions, but you didn't know how to cherish it. I do not send it. ”
