"Onigiri!" Hachi shouted excitedly.

The rice ball was still on alert at this time, and when she heard Hachi's shout and turned to see Hachi, the whole person pounced excitedly, and hugged Hachi's neck fiercely, shouting: "Starling, so you are here." ”

"Puff... If you let go first, you're going to strangle..."Xiaoba was hit by the rice ball, and his face turned purple because of the difficulty in breathing, so he struggled to say let the rice ball go. Onigiri also felt that he was too excited, and let go of Hachi with some embarrassment, and at the same time his pretty face was slightly red. lowered his head, rubbed the corner of his clothes and whispered, "Are you okay?" I see you're getting a little excited... I didn't mean to..."

Xiaoba smiled bitterly and rubbed his neck: "It's okay, it's okay, it's just that I was almost strangled to death by you." Okay, let's get down to business, where have you been? Why didn't I see you when I turned around? And it doesn't seem like this is where we started, you know what's going on? And how did you find that?"

As soon as he heard Xiao Hachi's question, Fan Tuan hurriedly waved his hand to Xiao Hachi, signaling him not to continue, "You don't know how you came here, I didn't appear here to look for you, I just saw that you were gone, so I looked for you everywhere." Then I found a strange little snake, the pattern on the little snake is very strange, it says the second entrance, I just saw it clearly, and it appeared here in a swoop, and then these abominable skeletons came to attack me, and as soon as I cleaned them up, you appeared. ”

"The little snake has the entrance to the second layer written on it?" Hearing this, Xiaoba almost didn't spit out a mouthful of blood, no wonder Xia Yu said that she didn't know what the entrance to the second layer was like, but she knew it, it turned out to be like this... At this time, Xiaoba almost looked up to the sky and scolded, is there such a pit, I complained like this.

After taking a few deep breaths and making two pauses, Hachi finally calmed down. He looked at the rice ball and said, "Then we should be on the second floor, I may have been accidentally teleported while I was on the way, no wonder I don't think I have walked here." By the way, what about Xia Yu?" asked Hachi again.

Fantuan shook his head: "I don't know, I called Xia Yu to come over, but she didn't take it seriously, so I was passed over alone, and she should still be on the first floor." But I think she'll find me here when she finds out I'm gone, so let's find a place to rest and wait for her. I came out of here, maybe she'll just be here. ”

Hachi heard that what the rice ball said made sense, so the two went to the mountain next to them and found a place to hide for a while. But they waited for more than an hour, and they didn't see Xia Yu's shadow, Xiaoba finally couldn't sit still, and said to the rice ball: "Don't wait, maybe Xia Yu has been sent to another place, let's go find it." ”

After hearing this, Fantuan naturally agreed, waiting in place is never the character of Fantuan, so after Xiaoba said it, Fantuan didn't say a word, and jumped off the mountain directly, and the two poor skeleton soldiers who happened to pass by were stomped off their heads one by one by the rice balls that fell from the sky, which made Xiaohachi on the mountain sigh after seeing it.

"Onigiri, you wait. Hachi called out for the rice ball and jumped down.

"Hmm, what's wrong?" Onigiri looked back at Hachi.

"We should check where we go first, right?"

"Hmm... I don't know, let's just pick a direction. Onigiri smiled at Hachi.

Xiaohachi glanced at the rice ball speechlessly, "Just look for it... This place is so big, if we go wrong, I'm afraid we will be lost here, and we don't know the way to go back to the first layer, only Xia Yu knows, we have to find her. ”

"Then where do you say you're looking? Do you know where she's going?" said Fantuan, dissatisfied.

Hachi shook his head: "I don't know, but I know where the Ethereal Spirit Stone is." ”

Fangiri raised his eyebrows and said in surprise, "How do you know?"

Xiaoba smiled mysteriously: "Let's go, I won't tell you first, you can just come with me, but I'm afraid there will be many tough battles to fight along the way." ”

"I'll leave the fight to me. Onigiri shook his arm and jumped twice excitedly.

Seeing the appearance of the rice ball, Hachi also felt powerless for this violent woman again...

……

It was said that it was the second floor, but Hachi didn't feel that there was any connection between it and the first floor, as if there were two independent planes, just a special passage through guò that connected to each other. Of course, with Hachi's knowledge, he can't understand this, he just knows that the first floor is very hot, and the second floor is very cold.

The cold wind has been blowing mercilessly on the second floor, and on this land, a dilapidated cottage stands on a large mountain with an altitude of nearly a thousand meters. The cottage looks very dilapidated, from the wall with countless loopholes that almost collapsed, and the missing half of the gate has rusted and blackened copper buckles, it can be seen that this cottage may have a long history. But in such a cottage, a group of skeleton soldiers in armor are constantly patrolling, and every once in a while, three or five skeleton soldiers will be sent out from here, and the skeleton soldiers that Hachi saw before came out of here. It's home to skeletons, it's a forbidden place for humans, but today, it's a human who hasn't been seen here for a long time...

At this time, Hachi and Fantuan were hiding on a small hill not far from the walled city, looking at the walled city below, Fantuan asked curiously, "What are we doing here?" These skeletons are annoying to look at. ”

Hachi pursed his lips and said secretly in his heart: "Why didn't I see you say that people hate it when you stepped on it..."It's just that if you think so, Hachi won't be stupid enough to say that, of course, it's very likely that he won't dare to say that. After all, the violence of the rice ball has deeply convinced Xiaoba. So he said to the rice balls, "Because there is a good chance that there are ethereal spirit stones here." ”

Hearing what Xiao Bayi said, Fantuan's eyes lit up, "There are ethereal spirit stones here, how do you know?"

"I'm not sure for sure, but I think there should be, look at this. After saying that, Hachi took out a thumb-sized stone from his bosom that glowed pale blue and looked like crystal.

"What is this?" asked Onigiri.

"If the old man told me that the way it looked is correct, this is the Ethereal Stone, but I don't know if the complete Ethereal Stone is so big, or if it's just a fragment of it. Hachi explained.

"Oh, where did you get this? Let's come here, right...?" Onigiri looked at Hachi, and then at the cottage occupied by skeletons below.

Hachi nodded affirmatively: "Well, I got it from them." When I first arrived, I came across a lot of skeletons while looking for you, and this was one of them. ”

"Then how do you know that there are their cottages here? It's our first time here, do you rely on your sense of smell? Your nose is smarter than a dog's. Fangiri looked at Hachi with an incredulous expression, and his eyes were full of heavy admiration. But of course, Hachi doesn't want the rice ball to worship him. More than a dog, do you praise yourself at this time? Do you worship yourself again at this time? So Xiaoba said angrily: "Don't look for a chance to hurt me, it's very easy to find, we just need to follow the direction where the skeleton soldiers came from, anyway, we can see one in a while, and we can naturally find here." ”

Hearing this, Fantuan looked suddenly enlightened, and she said to Xiaoba, "I see, what are you going to do now." ”

Xiaoba showed an evil smile at the rice ball: "Of course it's a slaughter, it's a robbery!"

After hearing this, the rice ball also showed the same smile as Hachi, at this time the two of them were like a pair of big bad wolves who had been planning for a long time, staring at the little white rabbit who had been forced to escape, fantasizing about how to enjoy this meal.

After a while, the rice ball rolled up his sleeves, got up and walked out. Xiao Hachi grabbed her and said, "Why are you going?"

Fantuan looked at Xiaoba in confusion, "Isn't it a slaughter, robbery, what else can you do?"

Xiaoba's "snap" hand gave himself a hard time: "Grandma, are you going like this?"

"What about that?" Onigiri looked at Hachi, revealing a cute temperament.

Hachi said angrily. "There are so many people on the other side, aren't we going to die like this? ”

The rice ball said "oh", then squatted down, holding her chin with both hands and fell into meditation, but her meditation only lasted less than half a pillar of incense, and she stood up again and said to Xiaoba: "I think about it!"

Hachi was overjoyed when he heard this, and asked, "Have you thought about it?"

Onigiri stretched out three fingers and said, "I came up with three plans." The first plan, you attack from the front door, I attack from the back door, and the two loaves sandwich them. The second plan is that we all attack from the main gate and rush in to kill them. The third plan, which I think is the most successful and the least risky. It's just that we rush in, you block them, I'll go find the ethereal spirit stone, and when we get it, we will break through and run out. ”

Xiao Hachi looked at the rice balls tremblingly, pointed to the cottage below and said, "Could it be that your first two plans plan to wipe them out?"

Onigiri casually said, "That's right." ”

After hearing this, Xiaoba calmly squatted next to a tree and didn't talk to the rice ball again, and then he picked up a branch and kept poking the loose soil on the ground, and kept babbling: "Poke you to death, poke you to death..."

After a short interlude, after Hachi re-admonished the rice balls, Hachi came to the gate of the Skull Cottage alone and carried a thousand fish knife, and shouted inside: "Get out of the old man!"
