Chapter Forty-Eight: The Child
I saw that the long sword flew all the way forward, and from time to time it stopped and waited in place, Yu Wu finally found an opportunity, she rushed forward and flew forward, and her fingertips finally grabbed the tail of the sword, which could hook the end, and she was not yet proud, but she felt empty under her feet.
οΌοΌοΌ
Yu Wu lowered her head and saw that the ground under her feet seemed to be dissolving and gradually collapsing, she hurriedly grabbed the sword flying in the air with both hands, and curled up her feet silently.
There seemed to be a bottomless pit under the dissolved ground, Yu Wu snapped her fingers, and a small fire rose from her fingertips and threw it down, and the fire was quickly drowned out by the darkness.
Yu Yu was about to move to the next place, but the sword she grabbed shook from side to side.
β... What do you mean, you don't want me to go down, do you? β
Sword nodded.
So deep... Yu Yu glanced at the sword in her hand vigilantly, and thought to herself, this thing can't be an evil thing that wants to use her sacrificial sword, right?
As if disgusted with Yu Yu's hesitation, the sword suddenly turned, and Yu Yu rushed into the cave below, and her screams were stuck in her throat at a fast speed, and as soon as her eyes were dark and bright, she was already in the end.
Yu Wu knelt on the ground with weak hands and feet, didn't have the energy to look at the environment she was in, touched the mountain wall and was about to stand up, but she couldn't hold back the tumbling rivers and seas in her stomach, and vomited it all.
The hole that came down was eighteen bends in the road, and she felt like a ribbon fluttering in the wind, and even the contents of her mind were about to be shaken.
Yu Yu leaned against the wall and rested for a long time before she barely recovered, and looked around, the sword that was the culprit no longer knew where to hide.
A flame rose in her palm, barely illuminating her surroundings.
This is an arched secret room, the ground under the feet is flat, it can be seen that someone has specially repaired a small arch on the left and right sides, but the door on the left side has been completely sealed by the rocks.
Yu Yu approached the wall with the fire, and found that there were faint traces of paint on the wall, and her curiosity prompted her to get closer and identify it carefully, and finally saw a rough idea.
The woman in red on the mural holds her hands in front of her chest, her facial features are blurred, but she can still feel her mourning, and she seems to be holding something in her hands that is shining, and a group of people are crawling on the ground below as if praying.
This is... Sacrifice?
Yu Yu thought suspiciously, continued to look down at the mural, and turned her head to find that the mural in front of her had been buried by rubble along with the arch on the left, and she put her hand on it and tried to move the stone away with the Five Elements Technique, but to no avail.
So Yu Yu quickly gave up the idea of continuing to the left.
There is nothing difficult in the world, as long as you are willing to give up.
If this road doesn't work, change the way.
Yu Yu turned her head and went to the right, the small arch on the right was not high, and she could just enter if she was half-squatting.
As soon as she got closer, Yu Yu had already keenly sensed the remnants of the magic circle on the small arch, but it had been destroyed. She first glanced across the small archway, and it seemed that there was more space on the other side.
It's so secluded here, could it be... Is it the real entrance to the Hidden Sword Cliff?
Yu Wu thought to herself, and climbed over with courage.
After coming through the small arch, the scene in front of me suddenly opened up.
There is no light to penetrate into this hundred-foot cave, but the cave is illuminated by many fluorescent lights, dotted with green starlight.
Judging by the length of the hole that had just fallen, it should have been underground, but there was still brocade hanging down from the surrounding stone walls, and it grew very well even when the sun was not shining.
It's just that... There was nothing in it, it was surrounded by abandoned piles of stone and huge statues that were unrecognizable, not to mention repairing shards, not even a single piece of broken iron.
Yu Yu, who was still looking forward to it, felt a little disappointed, because there was no road ahead, and this was obviously not the real Hidden Sword Cliff.
Is this going to be the end of the year?
Just when Yu Yu was deflated, there was a clanging sound from behind her, and when she turned around, she saw that the sword that was carrying her down was knocking left and right.
"You're in... Do what? Although she knew that she would not get a response, Yu Wu still couldn't help but ask.
The sword seemed to be familiar with this place, at least more than hers.
I saw that the sword flew in the air, and then flew in front of Yu Wu, drew a circle on the ground in front of her, and poked Yu Wu's skirt again, signaling her to stand in.
Yu Yu hesitated for a moment, but still stood in the circle it drew according to its instructions.
In the blink of an eye, a burst of light emanated from under her feet, stabbing Yu Wu unable to open her eyes, and after she got used to it, the surrounding scene had all changed, and at this moment, she was standing in a piece of light.
There was an irregular stone floating in front of her, and Yu Yu curiously stretched out her hand to touch it, but before her fingertips were next to the stone, she heard a stern voice from the void.
"Don't be rude."
Yu Wu suddenly withdrew her hand like a frightened rabbit, looked up, and saw a floating figure sitting cross-legged gradually appear on the stone.
He looked like a man, his long hair was untied, and his eyes seemed to be covered with a white silk, and he couldn't see it.
"You areβ" Yu Yu said suspiciously and curiously.
"Intruder, I am the spirit of this place, and the intruder, why disturb my peace." His voice was cold and warm, reminding Yu of the mint in the mountains.
"Little girl." Yu Yu took a half step back and saluted, "I don't intend to offend the immortals, I came here to save my friends, and I came to find materials that can repair ancient artifacts, and I hope that the immortals will be perfect." β
Then Yu Yu seemed to hear a soft sigh from the earth spirit, "I see, it's the divine lock that has been broken." He paused for a moment, and then said: "Since you have found this place, I should fulfill one of your wishes, but I just took the Nuwa soil used to repair the artifact, and I can't get the other divine weapons here, have you thought about it?" This place is bigger than the Divine Lock, and there are many useful treasures. β
"After thinking about it, I will repair the Nuwa soil used, and I hope it will be completed." Yu Wu didn't hesitate at all, and blurted out directly. She's here for this, so she won't change her mind at the moment.
The earth spirit hooked his lips slightly, and with a wave of his hand, a square box flew in front of Yu Yu, which contained Nuwa soil, "Then, you take it." β
Before she could say thanks, as soon as she got the box, the light around her had dissipated, and she was back in the underground cave, where the sword was lying at her feet.
"Huh." Yu Yu squatted down and poked it, and when she saw that it didn't respond, she picked it up, and smiled at it in her hand: "Thank you, if you don't mind, I'll take you back." β
This sword looks like an ordinary sword now, and if others see her babbling at a sword, most of them will think that her brain is not quite right.
Yu Yu climbed out of the small arch with her sword and put away the Nuwa soil, and the sword flew out of the long tunnel.
As soon as she reached the ground, the ground that had collapsed out of the passage quickly recovered, and there were no signs of collapse at all.
In my heart sighed at the magic, I looked around the neighborhood again, and finally found the scabbard that fell on the ground.
This clear and cold feeling made her immediately draw her sword and turn around and slash horizontally, but only slashed empty.
Yu Wu was stunned for a moment and lowered her head.
Standing behind her was... One wasn't as tall as her legs... Child?
How can there be children here?
Yu Yu vigilantly distanced herself from him and looked at him carefully.
I saw that the child was wearing a purple wide-sleeved robe, a white unicorn mask, and long silver hair, looking up at her.
Wait a minute... Why did she think the kid looked familiar?
Kind of... Her master?
