Chapter Seventy-Six: The Raging Dragon
Xu Yunhe said incoherently that he didn't know what he was saying, and his feet were still stepping back step by step, and suddenly he accidentally tripped over something, and his body suddenly lost his balance and fell backwards.
Xu Yunhe, who was in a state of confusion, fell into disgrace, fortunately the terrain here was not so high, he jumped up from the ground, scratched his head in embarrassment, and wanted to get into the crack in the ground, but he didn't dare to face Duanmu Feixue's eyes at all.
As soon as his arm was raised, Xu Yunhe felt that his elbow touched something, and it was soft. He reached out and touched it, slippery like a rope.
Why is there an extra rope? There's no one here, and there's this thing?
Xu Yunhe felt strange in his heart, turned his head and looked, from the top of the cave, a silver-white smooth rope hung down, slippery, soft, not hemp rope, nor any kind of rope of any material Xu Yunhe had ever seen, it seemed to be quite strong.
Xu Yunhe reached out curiously and tugged at it, but he didn't move a bit.
Xu Yunhe laughed, looked at Duanmu Feixue and said, "This place is quite strange, when we came here just now, we couldn't see anything except bats, snakes, or something." I don't really know what kind of rope this is, look at ......."
Before Xu Yunhe's words were finished, he suddenly found Duanmu Feixue on the other side, who had been looking at him gently, and there was suddenly a lot of horror in her infinitely gentle eyes.
"What's wrong, am I that terrible?" Xu Yunhe scratched his face, now his body was covered with dust and blood scabs or something, and his dirty appearance was definitely the most wolf in his life.
But he knew that Duanmu Feixue wouldn't be disgusted or anything because of his appearance, not to mention, from her eyes, what Xu Yunhe read was fear, not disgust.
"What's wrong?" Xu Yunhe couldn't laugh when he smiled.
"You...... ...... behind you" Duanmu Feixue trembled and stretched out his hand, pointing behind Xu Yunhe, his eyes full of horror.
"What's going on in the back?" Xu Yunhe forced a smile and turned around slowly.
As soon as he turned around, he couldn't even force a smile, he finally understood why Duanmu Feixue had become so frightened all of a sudden.
Seeing behind him clearly, now, Xu Yunhe's face began to turn pale.
As soon as he turned around, Xu Yunhe saw two extremely large lanterns.
The lantern was surprisingly large, and Xu Yunhe roughly estimated that it could be about the size of a large water tank.
And the lantern that I saw on weekdays was very different from the lantern that the lantern emitted not a dim yellow firelight, but emitted a green and faint light, and the faint green light shone on Xu Yunhe's face that had just turned over, reflecting his miserable white face, faint green light, and a more bleak and terrifying atmosphere.
Xu Yunhe turned around, but found that the lantern was still moving. It fell seven or eight meters from top to bottom, and even the strange rope just now shook and fell down.
Descending, at close range, Xu Yunhe finally saw what these strange things were all about.
Oh my God! What kind of lantern is this! It's clearly a pair of big eyes! It's definitely the biggest eye I've ever seen!
Falling down was a very large beast face, and Xu Yunhe stood in the cave and could only see half of it. It is covered with fish scales, but these scales are much larger than those of fish.
With large turquoise eyes and large nostrils as thick as a bucket, they spewed out air "whirring". The pair of turquoise eyes landed on the top of Xu Yunhe's head and stopped, and the green light flashed and flickered, as if he was blinking.
Xu Yunhe, who was stunned, lowered his head little by little, and he found that what he had just grabbed was not a rope at all, but the tentacles of this unknown monster. Extending downward from under the jaw of this monster, at this moment, as its head lowered, only a small part was exposed in Xu Yunhe's sight.
"Hello......" Xu Yunhe squeezed out a smile on his face that was more ugly than crying, like a marionette, and mechanically greeted the monster.
"Whew!"
There was an unfriendly roar from the monster's throat, and the stones on the edge of the cave wall tumbled downward.
After saying hello, Xu Yunhe immediately ran inside with his feet low and oiled, but a few meters away, he ran out of breath.
Finally ran in front of Duanmu Feixue, Xu Yunhe looked at her thoughtfully in shock, and asked, "What the hell is this?
Hearing Xu Yunhe's question, Duanmu Feixue lived for a long time before nodding lightly.
"If I'm not mistaken, this ...... It should be a dragon!" Duanmu Feixue said with a solemn expression as he stared at the two big lantern-like eyes outside.
"Dragon...... Is this a dragon?" Xu Yunhe asked in disbelief as he swallowed hard.
Duanmu Feixue nodded again: "It should be, if you want to confirm, go out and look at its body, you can understand it in a word!"
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go out and have a look!" received an affirmative answer, the frightened look on Xu Yunhe's face was swept away, and he was so excited that he turned around and was about to run outside.
This is a dragon that only exists in legends!
All the people in the world, whether they are illiterate or well-educated, whether they are drooping boys or old men, there is no one who has not heard of dragons.
In legend, the dragon is the supreme deity. It is born of the aura of heaven and earth, and the sound can control the rain, dew, frost and snow, and it can soar in the nine heavens, and it can swim in the five lakes and seas, which is simply a god-like existence.
Although the dragon does not see the end, the various myths and legends about the dragon still create a complete and distinct image of the dragon. Especially the royal family, they even pulled the dragon to be their ancestors, one by one to the dragon son and grandson of the dragon boasted, the image of the dragon for the royal family, ordinary people can not touch it at all, this is the status of the dragon greatly raised.
Xu Yunhe was only fifteen years old now, and he didn't know what kind of connection the dragon had with the imperial power. The myths and legends he had heard as a teenager alone were enough to make him fascinated by the mythical animal dragon.
Now that he has actually seen this legendary beast in reality, the legend has come to the face of reality, so how can Xu Yunhe still stay calm?
Duanmu Feixue was not infected by Xu Yunhe's ecstasy at all, not only did she not follow Xu Yunhe and ran out excitedly, but also reached out and grabbed Xu Yunhe: "Are you just going out like this?
"That's a dragon! I'll go out and take a look, why are you talking the same as looking for a short view?" Xu Yunhe looked at Duanmu Feixue in confusion, and then he suddenly realized that he was smart, "Oh, I see! Don't you have a phoenix? The dragon and the phoenix are a pair, do you want to go out with me to get to know each other?" Maybe this dragon outside and your fire kite still know each other!"
Duanmu Feixue looked at Xu Yunhe, who thought he was smart, with a smile and a smile, and said angrily: "You know nonsense! The dragon outside, where is it as simple as you think!"
"What's wrong?" Duanmu Feixue's tone was unusual. Xu Yunhe didn't dare to frolic anymore, stopped running out, and sat down, "I've heard about these divine beasts, you have raised a phoenix, you should know a lot, tell me about it!"
"Dragons, and phoenixes, in legends, are omnipotent beasts. In fact, those myths are too naïve, there have never been gods in this world, and the so-called divine beasts are actually just some powerful beasts, which have nothing to do with gods at all. Duanmu Feixue also sat down, slowly talking to Xu Yunhe about what he knew, while his eyes kept looking at the dragon outside.
"So?" Xu Yunhe suddenly felt that his childhood dreams had begun to fall apart.
"Divine beasts are still beasts, and like other beasts, they have to eat and ...... Male and female combined ......" Duanmu Feixue said the last two words in a flash like a mosquito buzzing, but it happened that Xu Yunhe still understood, of course he didn't say it, and the best reaction at this time was to pretend to be stupid.
"They are very powerful, and as soon as they are born, they inherit extremely strong strength from their mothers. My fire kite is not yet an adult, but its strength, even if it is ten me, is no match for it. After speaking, Duanmu Feixue glanced at Xu Yunhe meaningfully.
Xu Yunhe understood why Duanmu Feixue was looking at him like this, and waved his hand again and again: "Why are you looking at me like this? I can't even beat you one tenth, and I can't compare with these divine beasts at all." But do you mean to sue me that the dragon outside actually eats meat? If I go out, it will be equivalent to sending it snacks? Impossible?"
Xu Yunhe was joking, but he saw that Duanmu Feixue actually nodded solemnly.
"It's impossible, isn't it? How can I say that it's also a divine beast, how can I do such a tasteless thing as eating people? Besides, with my small body, even if I am eaten by it, it's not enough for it to stuff its teeth, right?" Xu Yunhe smiled reluctantly.
Duanmu Feixue didn't answer, just looked at him very calmly.
"It's too unreasonable, isn't it? What do you say?" Xu Yunhe's excitement was extinguished in one fell swoop, and he asked dejectedly.
The two big lanterns outside were still hanging there and refused to leave, and now after listening to Duanmu Feixue's words, Xu Yunhe didn't want to go out to feed the dragon's belly anymore.
But hiding in this cave is not an option, both of them are now scarred, although not serious, they can't stay here for long. Especially Xu Yunhe's previous "Fire Melting Technique" that vainly changed the Dragon Divine Fire into a big injury to the vitality in his body, and he urgently needed to find a quiet place to recuperate. Now there is a supernatural pot-bellied dragon staring out there, and this is not a long-term solution.
"No way, it seems that this dragon has no interest in the flesh on our body, so we can only wait for this dragon to lose curiosity about us, and wait for it to go first. Duanmu Feixue shook his head, his face full of helplessness.
"Doesn't Miss Duanmu have a phoenix? It's a pity that it's not here now, but you can't communicate with that dragon?
Duanmu Feixue glanced at Xu Yunhe, and said indifferently: "I forgot to tell you, dragons and phoenixes are born to be mortal enemies." Fire and water are incompatible, and if the fire kite were by our side now, the two of them would have been fighting endlessly!"
Xu Yunhe was surprised, sat down on the ground dejectedly, and had nothing to say.
In the narrow cave, Xu Yunhe and Duanmu Feixue sat speechless, there were two green eyes staring outside, no one was in a good mood, and the mood of laughing was naturally gone.
"Ahh
"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Xu Yunhe jumped over and asked urgently.
"Yes...... There is something!" Duanmu Feixuehua's face was gloomy, and he hid behind Xu Yunhe and pointed to a dark corner.
"It's okay, I'll take a look!" Xu Yunhe comforted her and cautiously walked in the direction Duanmu Feixue pointed.
He didn't expect Duanmu Feixue to become so weak now, where did the frost beauty who refused to say a word more than a word go at the beginning?
How did the ignorant Xu Yunhe know that a woman, no matter how powerful she is, is still a woman after all. In front of a man he has already identified, those are strong, those are stubborn, is it still necessary to disguise?
People say that a woman's heart is a needle under the sea. But who has ever really cared about what a woman thinks in her heart?
Xu Yunhe was completely unaware of these problems, he crept closer, and when he came closer, he saw a black thing slowly squirming on the ground. When he dodged, he flew over and grabbed the black thing in the palm of his hand with one hand.
The little thing was not big, it was still "squeaking" when it was grabbed by Xu Yunhe in the palm of his hand, squirming desperately, trying to escape from Xu Yunhe's palm, but it was only in vain.
Seeing its appearance clearly, Xu Yunhe smiled, turned to look at Duanmu Feixue, and smiled in his eyes: "It's nothing, it's just a bat that is just barely breathing, it is estimated that it was smashed below just now, and it is not dead yet, you see!"
Saying that, Xu Yunhe lifted the bat in his hand, and when he saw the ugly appearance of the bat, Duanmu Feixue turned his head in disgust: "Such a dirty thing, why are you still holding it in your hand? Quickly throw it away! Don't let me see it again!"
"Okay, okay! In that case, I can only blame it for crashing into my hands!" Xu Yunhe smiled indifferently, and threw the "squeaky" bat out with a flick of his hand.
With a "snap", the bat crossed an arc and fell heavily on the hard rock wall on the side, shattering its body and bones, and its flesh and blood were blurred. A pungent fishy smell suddenly overflowed the small space.
Duanmu Feixue hurriedly covered her nose, and her delicate eyebrows wrinkled slightly: "What are you doing?
The initiator, Xu Yunhe, was a little embarrassed: "I didn't expect this bat to become so stinky...... Previously...... It doesn't seem to be so ......strict."
"You ......" Duanmu Feixue glanced at Xu Yunhe.
Before the words of reproach could be spoken, suddenly, a huge roar like a tsunami suddenly sounded!
There was a "bang", and the large and small stones in the cave began to roll down again, and the sand began to fall on the roof of the cave, and the scene in the cave turned into a black storm in the sea that day.
"How...... What's going on......" A mouth full of sand and gravel, Xu Yunhe asked with difficulty.
Duanmu Feixue didn't open her mouth, but just shook her head vigorously, indicating that she didn't know anything either.
The roar of the earth shaking the mountains finally stopped, and Xu Yunhe and Duanmu Feixue leaned against the rock wall in horror with more dust, looking out with restless eyes.
Where, the two green lantern eyes were gone.
Finally disappeared, but there was no trace of joy on the faces of Xu Yunhe and Duanmu Feixue.
On the contrary, looking at each other, both sides saw a deeper horror in each other's eyes.
"Did it do it?" Xu Yunhe asked in a low tone.
Duanmu Feixue nodded with difficulty: "Except for it...... There's no other possibility......"
"What's going on? wasn't it okay just now?" both of them understood who "it" meant, but neither dared to really mention that word.
"Could it be ......" Duanmu Feixue's eyes slowly moved to the corner of the wall, where there was the most fishy smell.
"Is it? Is it the bloody gas?" In just nine years, Xu Yunhe said with great difficulty, squeezing out little by little like squeezing toothpaste.
"It should be......" Duanmu Feixue wanted to smile and comfort Xu Yunhe, but he couldn't make himself smile.
"Damn!" Xu Yunhe slammed his fist on the rock wall, causing dust to fly on the rock wall.
Xu Yunhe's heart was full of remorse, but the dragon outside no longer gave him time to regret and blame himself.
There was another violent shaking of the mountain, and the cave once again turned into the center of the storm, Xu Yunhe and Duanmu Feixue, like a lonely boat in a storm, fluttering weakly with the wind, as if they could be torn apart by the storm at any time.
In this way, the cave shook no less than ten times in a row, and finally calmed down for a while.
Xu Yunhe and Duanmu Feixue hugged each other, the vibration had ended, but they were still curled up in a corner, dumbfounded.
waited until this calm lasted for a long time, and Duanmu Feixue jumped up with a "yah", turned his back, and his face was as red as blood.
"Has it finally stopped?" Xu Yunhe stiffened his feet and looked outside, although he couldn't see anything from the small hole.
"I'm afraid...... It's not that simple...... Dragon...... It's not going to give up so lightly......" Duanmu Feixue shook his head and suddenly exclaimed, "Where did this come from?!"
