Chapter Sixty-Nine - Rescue Arrives
Zhou Xinyi suddenly stopped his fingers that were about to pull the trigger, "Jiang Yi? β
Jiang Yi's dark eyes looked at her in the dark, "It's me." β
Even when he heard Jiang Yi's voice, Zhou Xinyi still didn't dare to relax his vigilance, he silently waited for a few footsteps to go away before turning on the phone screen and shining at the person behind him.
Zhou Xinyi saw Jiang Yi's delicate and beautiful face through the light of his mobile phone, and he was slightly relieved.
"Zhou Xinyi, you haven't answered my question yet," Jiang Yi looked at him with smart eyes, "You're here to find me?" β
Zhou Xinyi was also observing Jiang Yi's body movements at this time, and after finding that the other party's movements were agile and not stiff, he said, "I chased you over." β
"Chasing me?" Jiang Yi was a little inexplicable, "I followed these things all the way to the cave, but I never found anyone behind me." β
"I haven't asked you yet, why are you in this stuff?"
"I saw these things behaving strangely, so I took the plan and chased after them."
Zhou Xinyi took a breath, "How dare you break into the enemy's den single-handedly." β
"I'm safe and sound, and that's proof."
After some conversation, Zhou Xinyi suddenly realized that the atmosphere between them was a little tense.
He sorted out his emotions again, "Forget it, it's me who is too nervous." β
"There is no convective wind in the cave, which means there is no second entrance and exit inside, and we have to go back the way we came."
"Build crystals with your dragon's breath, and we should be able to climb them."
After climbing up the cave, if you are lucky, you can meet Ms. Ji Lin and Changbai, and you can take care of each other.
"Let's go, Jiang Yi."
Zhou Xinyi climbed out of the cave, but found that Jiang Yi behind him did not move.
Zhou Xinyi said strangely, "What's wrong?" β
Jiang Yi said meaningfully, "Can you prove that you are true?" β
"I did follow these things hand in hand all the way back to the cave, but I didn't hear your shouts."
"How can you prove that you're not a fake?"
When Zhou Xinyi heard this, he also said, "I can't judge whether you are true or false now." β
Jiang Yi said, "It's very simple. β
"If you can tell me where I come from, I trust you."
Zhou Xinyi only returned to the Ancient Scale Clan with Jiang Yi some time ago, which was indeed a question that she could think of at the first time.
For the sake of caution, Zhou Xinyi didn't want to say anything about Jiang Yi's personality here, but if he couldn't answer this question accurately at this time, he could be sure that Jiang Yi would definitely not leave with him obediently.
Zhou Xinyi had no choice but to answer, "You are Jiang Yi of the Ancient Scale Clan." β
Jiang Yi smiled brightly after hearing this, "It seems that you are real." β
"Now it's time for you to answer my question," Zhou Xinyi said, "what did we have for dinner yesterday?" β
"You don't want to cook, so we eat Western food with brandy."
"That's right, let's go."
Zhou Xinyi took Jiang Yi back the way he came, and suddenly, an angry dragon groan came from in front of them.
The two of them immediately covered their hearts, and Jiang Yi said, "Damn, what's the situation?" β
Zhou Xinyi also said, "It's Ms. Ji Lin and Changbai, have they found the cave?" β
"Changbai?" Jiang Yi was surprised, "How can it make a noise here." β
"It is estimated that Ms. Ji Lin instigated, she wants to destroy all the 'corpses' here? Or maybe it's in danger. β
Zhou Xinyi didn't dare to make up his mind, so he could only say to Jiang Yi, "Let's go and meet." β
At the same time, Ms. Ji Lin, who was squatting on the ground, let go of the hand covering her ears.
When she discovered that there were six openings that could go deep into the cave, she gave up on entering the cave.
Pick a random entrance to enter, the probability of successfully finding Zhou Xinyi is very small, and the narrow passage will affect Changbai's actions.
She can only hope that Zhou Xinyi has not been discovered by the enemy, and that she still has good mobility, and she and Changbai are here to answer and leave this uninvited place as soon as possible.
She had to let Zhou Xinyi know that she was here, and there were two choices before her - should she shout peacefully into the cave, or let the Nightmare let out a dragon moan with the ability to kill enemies?
simply have to expose their position, of course, the latter is more powerful.
Therefore, she decided to let Changbai roar at the cave to deal with the enemies who might leave the cave and pose a threat to her, since Zhou Xinyi is Changbai's master, she believes that Zhou Xinyi will not be severely injured by Changbai's roar.
Even if Zhou Xinyi is accidentally injured, Ji Lin can only express regret, she also needs to ensure her own safety, and the destruction of everyone here is the stupidest ending.
Sure enough, when Changbai let out a scream, the things inside the cave did not rush out, but kept quiet, alert to the danger outside the cave.
In Ji Lin's opinion, they are also human beings, and they are also afraid of the nightmare that screams to cause cardiac arrest.
This just buys time for everyone.
Jiang Yi and Zhou Xinyi were racing against time to rush out of the cave at this moment, and just before they were about to rush out of the cave, a white figure was one step ahead of them and rushed towards Ms. Ji Lin, who was waiting to answer.
It was a tall, smiling man, with wide black eyes that had no whites, and grabbed Ji Lin's neck fiercely with one arm!
Ji Lin quickly dodged to the side, took out a dagger, and stabbed it into the enemy's armpit!
Ji Lin is not a weak woman, as the fiancΓ©e of the official Mailer, Ji Lin also learned the most basic martial arts.
That said, this is the first time she has killed someone so violently.
The position of the ribs under the armpit is one of the most vulnerable parts of a person, and with a stab, Ji Lin believed that the enemy would never be able to stand up again, but the "man" didn't seem to feel any pain, and continued to pounce towards Ji Lin!
At this time, Ji Lin was in the middle of the shot, and she didn't have time to turn around to avoid the man's unprepared pursuit, and at the last moment, Changbai beside her angrily raised her claws and tore the "man" in half under her feet!
"Ms. Shireen!"
Zhou Xinyi also saw the thrilling scene, "Are you okay?!" β
Ji Lin's heart was beating wildly, "I'm fine, come with me." β
Several people didn't have time to delay, one rode on Changbai's back, and the two grabbed Changbai's two feet, and they were carried out of the cave by it.
After struggling to fly out of the hole, Changbai lay on the ground and gave everyone a resentful look.
Zhou Xinyi patted him on the head, "I'll make up for you when I go back." β
Changbai's mood is a little better.
Probably because a few people had just left the cave, the "invisible cave" did not disappear from their eyes, but remained in place in good condition.
Dozens or hundreds of "corpses" crawled out of the cave, all with pale bodies, twisted or stiff expressions, and frantically climbed the walls of the cave at grotesque steps.
They trampled on each other, their mouths uttering cries that did not resemble human language, and the sight before them was like a carnival of corpses.
Ji Lin had palpitations, is this really a human being?
Jiang Yi stood at the edge of the cave, looking at the scene under his feet mockingly, and then turned around without hesitation, "Let's go quickly." β
It won't be long before the corpses crawl out like stacks of arhats.
Zhou Xinyi, who left the cave, did not let his guard down at this moment, because he still remembered that before he was caught in the cave, he also encountered an even more terrifying and tall monster.
It is not advisable to stay long in the dark, and they must return to the camp site at once.
Fortunately, the process of returning to the camp was quite smooth, and they acted carefully by moonlight all the way, and did not encounter the monsters that Zhou Xinyi had fought before, nor did they encounter other dangers.
All the way back to the camping site, Zhou Xinyi found that the captain had not yet fallen asleep, and was carrying a lamp, waiting for them anxiously.
Beside the captain stood a man in a dark green coat, blind in one eye, with three long scratches on his face, and a leg under one of his trousers, which he balanced with a stake the size of a bottle.
The two stood together in the light, and when they saw a few people coming back, the captain immediately walked quickly and excitedly.
He didn't take a few steps, but was stopped by the one-eyed man reaching out, "Are you sure these people are leaving?" β
The captain hurriedly said, "Ms. Shireen, Mr. Zhou, and a nightmare, that's right...... Huh? Who is that brunette woman? I haven't seen her! β
The one-eyed man immediately pressed his hand on the scimitar at his waist.
Zhou Xinyi said in time, "This is my companion, Jiang Yi, I just saw her in the team of those things, so I caught up with her." β
"What do you call it?"
The captain snorted, "This is the vice captain, Fang Wen Chun, he is from Wen Zhongguo." β
Wen Zhongguo? Zhou Xinyi had seen this country in his notes, and he was not surprised by this.
"Mr. Fang Wen," Zhou Xin Yi said, "I know your concerns. β
He stepped forward and patted Fang Wen Tsubaki's shoulder, "What's the matter, wait until we take a break and calm down, okay?" β
Fang Wen Chun knew that Zhou Xinyi was a judge, and gave him a face, "Okay." β
Seeing that the attitude of the two eased, the captain had the spirit to observe the injuries of several people, focusing on Ji Lin a few more times, and found that the hem of her clothes was stained with blood, and was startled, "Ms. Shilin, are you injured?" β
Ji Lin said lightly, "It's not my blood. β
This is what Changbai splashed when he shredded the enemy.
But in order not to frighten the approachable captain, she didn't say much.
The captain also saw the blood stains on Changbai's claws at this time, and he didn't think much about it in order not to scare himself.
After saying goodbye to the captain, Zhou Xinyi returned to his tent with Jiang Yi.
"Do you have a catch in the cave?"
"Yes," Jiang Yi replied fluently, "All the clues we get from that kind of monster are our gains." β
"And what kind of monsters do you think those are?"
"A creature that mimics humans and is good at camouflage," Jiang Yi said, "You said that the first time you saw that monster was in the camping site, and no one noticed its unusual identity before she secretly left the camping site at night, right?" β
"Maybe it's been discovered, but no one has debunked it for the time being."
"I've also discovered that those monsters don't understand human language, but they're learning and evolving until they're just like normal humans."
Zhou Xinyi looked at Jiang Yi, "Why do you want to imitate humans, do you regard humans as advanced animals, as predecessors that can be used for reference?"
"No?" Jiang Yi said funny, "They're just interested in humans. β
Zhou Xinyi sighed, "You're quite tired today, aren't you?" Let's rest in the tent first. β
Jiang Yi asked with concern, "What about you?" β
He stood up, "Men and women don't kiss, I'll set up another tent and come out." β
