Chapter 103: Life for Life
The chill from the strange man made Yun Song have to use his spiritual power to resist in order to persevere. Gradually, a fire burned in his chest, and the strange man's feet began to have the warmth of a living person, until they were as warm as Yun Song's chest.
"Okay, you've passed the first level!" the strange man retracted his feet in satisfaction and motioned for Yun Song to put the broken boots on him, "The second level will be easier, look over there!"
Following the strange man's gaze, Yun Song saw something black, gray, and dark green on the ground, and he couldn't tell what it was at all. "I've been trapped here for many years, and I've only survived with a spiritual power. No one used to come here, but now that you're here, make me something delicious with those things!"
In terms of cooking, Yun Song is not familiar with it, but some simple dishes can also be made. He walked over and fiddled with the pile with his hand, and it was so hard that it even made a crunch when it collided. Yun Song frowned, turned around and asked, "Senior, can you tell me what this is, and I can cook it too." ”
"After so many years, I don't remember what it is, it's all good stuff anyway. There's a fire over there, there's a pot, do it quickly, I'm already hungry and can't stand it!" the strange man urged repeatedly, and Yun Song had no choice but to pick some and take them to the fire.
Although it is cold in the cave, there is no shortage of water. Yun Song found an iron pot, made some ice to melt on the fire, and put those black, gray, and green things into it, and cleaned them repeatedly.
Even though they don't look good, they don't smell weird. After washing it for the first time, the water was so black that I couldn't see the color. When I washed it a second time, the water was just cloudy and not so dark. Wash it a third time and the water will already be clear.
Yun Song was pleasantly surprised to find that these things that didn't look good had become soft after some cleaning. He used the Frostcloud Sword he had brought with him to finely shred them, remelted the ice water, and put them on the fire to simmer.
There were no extra materials, only a pinch of salt, Yun Song was uneasy in his heart, such a rough thing, I was afraid that even the stomach would find it difficult to swallow.
As the fire became more and more intense, the iron pot was bubbling and bubbling, and a strange aroma gradually wafted out. The strange man kept twitching his nose and said continuously, "Well, fragrant, it's so fragrant! Okay, no, get me a bowl to taste!"
Yun Song was worried that if these ingredients were left for too long, they would hurt his stomach if he ate them, so he insisted on cooking them for a while. When the aroma became more and more intense, and even he was about to drip saliva, Yun Song took the iron pot down, cooled it slightly, found a slender stone, sharpened it into a spoon with the Frost Cloud Sword, and fed it into the strange man's mouth spoonful by spoon.
I think it's been a long time since I've eaten, and the strange man almost swallowed his tongue with praise and praise. After drinking most of the pot, the strange man finally stopped with satisfaction and said to Yun Song, "Not bad, I'll give you a taste of the rest!"
Yun Song was stunned, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed. Although the pot smelled delicious, he found it difficult to swallow. The strange man stared at him, "What, don't eat it, hum!" With a cold snort, Yun Song had to ask for it, scooped up a spoonful, raised his head and poured it down!
Fresh, sweet, fragrant, moist, Yun Song felt that this soup was delicious, and it was very comfortable to drink it with a warm stomach. He took one bite after another, until he drank all the remaining soup in the iron pot, and then he asked puzzledly, "Senior, what are those things that look hard and hard, and why is the soup so delicious?"
"You kid, what a blessing!" the strange man said with some pride, "Those are all fairy grasses that only exist in the sky, if it weren't for you covering my feet for me, I wouldn't have cheapened you for nothing!"
"Thank you, senior!" Yun Song thought deeply and asked, "What else did the senior tell me to do?" At this time, the strange man's expression became serious, "If I say it, you will definitely do it?"
"The seniors instructed, naturally go to the soup and go to the fire, and do not hesitate!" Yun Song thought that although the first two things were a little difficult, they could also be done, and the third thing would not be difficult to think about. Unexpectedly, the strange man sneered and said, "What if I want your heart?"
A breath of cool air choked in his throat, Yun Song coughed violently twice, and looked at the strange man in a daze. The strange man did not shy away from his gaze at all, "Why, those nonsense words that go to the soup and go to the fire are lying to me?"
"No, it's not!" Yun Song immediately said, "I didn't deceive my seniors, but I don't understand, what is the use of my seniors' heart?"
The strange man looked at him and sighed, "I'm trapped here, I'm afraid I'll never be able to get out." Do you know the loneliness of night and day, without food or drink, without moving, and without even a mad yell?"
Yun Song didn't dare to imagine how long he could last if he lived the kind of life he said. Seeing that he was silent, the strange man continued, "I survived before, and that's because I'm numb. However, today you appeared, warmed my feet, and let me know what warmth is again. Cook me soup and let me know what sweetness is. I don't want to live like I used to be, and I want to get out of here. ”
"If I give you my heart, will you be able to leave?" Yun Song still didn't understand. The strange man did not speak, and a strange wind blew up from him, blowing off the strips of rags that were wrapped around him, and his body, though thin, was intact, except for the left chest, where there was a hole the size of a bowl!
For a moment, Yun Song understood what was missing there. "The reason I'm stuck here is because someone took my heart away." Without a heart, it's a walking corpse, how to get out. If you're willing to give me your heart, I'll be able to get out of here. ”
If you give him your heart, you will die, Yun Song knows this very well. However, if he refuses to give his heart to him, then the three of Chai Shien will no longer have the slightest life. One life for three lives, Yun Song felt that this deal was worth it!
"Senior, I'm willing!" he replied simply, "It's just a reluctant request, and after asking the seniors to go out, keep their promise and rescue the three junior disciples, Yun Song is grateful!" The strange man was very surprised, "You are willing to exchange your own life for their lives, the disciples taught by Yi Wuya are so stupid?"
"No, I don't think it's stupid. Yun Song retorted for the first time, "Master said that all beings are equal, I have the right or, the seniors also have the right or, and the three junior brothers also have the right to live well! As a senior brother, what I have to do is to rescue them!"
