Chapter 19: Making a Fire in the Dark
Lu Ran wanted to go to the left, in addition to disgusting this cadre, there was actually another reason.
Ever since he landed on the island, he had been feeling unwell, as if something that belonged to him had been tarnished by someone else.
He was really not used to staying on this island with other people.
Lu Ran couldn't explain all this.
Under the effect of the pill, this inexplicable desire for possession can no longer be hidden.
In the dark hole, there were only two people, him and Li Jiangliu, and he seemed to have inexhaustible strength, and this kind of factor made him want to do something.
Lu Ran struggled to suppress this urge to engage in some kind of violence, so he kept a distance of about ten steps from Li Jiangliu.
Did Li Jiangliu notice it?
He just glanced back at Lu Ran, still smiling, turned around and continued to walk forward.
As he walked, he continued to chat with Lu Ran casually.
He first told a story: "This left side seems to be really a pseudo-hole. Do you know? The immortal treasure land, one true and one false, is normal. It's just that the most exaggerated thing is that there was once an immortal named Cao Yi Zhenren, who hid his favorite treasure in the grave, but the same grave, all over the Tai'er, there are seventy-two places, also known as 'seventy-two grass mounds'. How can there be such a boring immortal in the world, you say it's funny or not. ”
"You say 'there was one'? It means that he is no longer there, so the so-called immortal ...... Will you die too? Lu Ran was silent for a while, but finally asked such a question.
"That's not it, except for those few immortals, the immortals are just difficult to die, not that they won't die."
"Does it include starvation, thirst, and drowning?"
"Of course. Immortals either don't die, or they die, and they all die very tragically. ”
After saying this, Li Jiangliu seemed to hesitate for a moment, and then changed the topic: "You said that you have come to this island no less than a thousand times, do you really not know that there are two caves in this mountain?" ”
"Before yesterday, I didn't even know that there were really immortals in this world."
"Then you said that you have been to the island thousands of times, what are you doing here?"
Lu Ran recalled for a moment: "Touching the stones? Playing with stones? Sleeping on a stone as if nothing had been done. ”
"Like we are now?" In Li Jiangliu's tone, some frustration began to appear.
"It's a pity, wasted...... Wasted your pill. ”
"The pill doesn't hurt...... It's just that this pseudo-hole, there is nothing, and it's really an accident. ”
"Since it's a pseudo-hole, there's nothing, isn't it normal?" Lu Ran didn't understand.
"There is no treasure in the pseudo-hole, but it is dangerous, and it is a trap in itself, so that there is no return. On the contrary, it is a real hole, and sometimes in order to protect the baby itself, it will be relatively less risky. That's why we couldn't divide the two sides in the first place. ”
"Anyway, you mean that the two of us are very boring right now, but also very safe?"
Li Jiangliu snorted, thought about it and still felt a little strange, and said: "It's really bizarre, I've been looking for the island for three or five hundred years, and it's just a useless place to play in you." In the same way, this hole, perhaps because of you, is nothing. ”
"Isn't it right for a person who has nothing to come to an island where there is nothing and then enter this hole where there is nothing?" Lu Ran couldn't help but ridicule himself.
"This also proves that you, the little brother, are destined for the 'Water Prison Pass', but for this island and this baby, you are a person who has no fate."
"I think so."
The two of them were silent for a moment, and then laughed as if they had a heart.
"I also have a question...... Lu Ran also found a new topic.
"If you want to ask what King Fu is looking for on this island, then I can tell you for sure, I don't know."
Before Lu Ran finished speaking, Li Jiangli had already answered.
Lu Ran thought about it again and said, "I know, like me, you were deceived into coming to this place. ”
"I can't say that I deceive, I can only say that King Fu is going to deceive this time, and the person who really wants to deceive is not me, or even you."
"And who is he going to fool?"
"People of the world." Li Jiangliu paused for a moment and continued to smile: "But the people of this world naturally include you and me. ”
"So he lied to us anyway."
"Therefore, you should understand that there is a wrongdoer, and there is a debtor."
Speaking of which, Li Jiangliu almost made it clear that if you have any grudges or grudges, you have to go to King Fu.
Lu Ran snorted and asked again, "Is this Fu Wang powerful?" ”
"This ...... I don't know. Li Jiangliu quickened his pace and said: "King Fu had already descended the mountain and cut off the cultivation path before I was born...... What's that......"
"What kind of 'destined person' is he too?"
"No, it is said that he was a perfect man. Rumors are like this, he went up the mountain to practice with perfect talent, but after two years, he went down the mountain again, and since then his personality has changed greatly, and he has become an idle prince, but no one thought that this time he was reused by the emperor again. ”
"Reuse? Isn't he the emperor's favorite son? Lu Ran was puzzled.
"I like and entrust me with important tasks, I can't equate it, you don't know what this fleet means to our Char."
Li Jiangliu's voice became a little quieter.
The function of the pill has been greatly reduced, and I am afraid that it is about to fail.
At this time, Lu Ran had already sensed the end of this cave, and it was very close.
"Is there anything else you'd like to ask?" The faster Li Jiangliu advanced, the faster he advanced.
"Yes." Lu Ran followed behind and also quickened his pace.
"What is it?" Li Jiangliu's voice was already far away.
"Don't you really know what's ahead?"
Lu Ran asked leisurely, the power of the Red Immortal was still there, and he caught up with Li Jiangliu in a few steps.
"Hahaha!"
Li Jiangliu suddenly laughed loudly: "Turn another corner, you should be there." ”
Li Jiangliu's face, which had been smiling since entering the cave, suddenly became cold.
"Whatever is there, it's mine!"
Lu Ran didn't speak, but he had already rushed forward in action, wanting to take a step forward to see what was ahead.
Li Jiangliu couldn't really see it in the dark, as if there was indeed something around the corner, still swinging slightly.
"It's a little flower. A small white flower. Lu Ran had already surpassed Li Jiangliu, and with some excitement, he turned his head and said.
"What?" Li Jiangliu didn't hear clearly, halfway through the journey, he just faintly felt in his heart that this hole was not empty, but he wanted to stabilize Lu Ran.
Now when he knew exactly that there was indeed something at the end of the cave, he lost his voice and lost his mind with some joy.
It's not easy to disguise it until now.
He took a few quick steps forward as he pulled out a transparent gadget from his sleeve, the size of a wine glass.
A flame rose from the glass, illuminating the entire cavern in an instant.
Sure enough, not far ahead, was the end of the cave, and on the stone at the end, there was a small flower, a weak little flower.
Lu Ran suddenly stayed there and stopped moving forward.
Not because of that little flower, but because of the flame in Li Jiangliu's cup.
It was a distinctive, miserable green flame.
The flames became brighter and brighter, illuminating Li Jiangliu's face, and it seemed that it had also changed.
"This baby, it's mine."
Li Jiangliu said coldly, there was already a killing intent in his eyes.
Lu Ran clenched his fists and let out a sigh, and his eyes had become intense.
He finally asked the sentence he had always wanted to ask Li Jiangliu.
"It's not the first time we've met, right?"
"Ma Cunshan."
