0014 Shortcuts
I put away my Excalibur and watched the waterfall cascade down, feeling a sense of accomplishment. I didn't expect that the thousand-year-old grievances of the demon world would be resolved by me, a farmer in the mortal world. In this way, I still have some ability.
It's just that I didn't expect to waste an entire day's schedule in the canyon. According to the request of the Taoist chief, it was too late to rush back to the World Hall in three days.
I looked up at the cliff and felt a little anxious.
In other words, I have to find a shortcut to get back to the Afterlife Hall in time.
It's all damn monsters.
At this time, the sun is set, and the whole canyon looks extremely gray.
I climbed the cliff with my bare hands and decided to continue on the same route. Climbing up a small hill, I stopped and wanted to take a break. I patted the dust off my hands, turned around and looked at the canyon, and found that the demonic beast in the east was still standing there, not leaving.
I waved at it, signaling that it was getting late and it was time to go back.
It stood there motionless, its eyes full of loneliness, grievance and sadness.
I wonder how fierce the king of the beast world is so cruel, and there is an unknown thousand-bone tenderness. I turned on my perception function and found that it was missing its woman. However, it has been a long time since the incident, and everything is irreparable.
I said, "It's all over, let her go!"
It said, "I will never forget a day here." ”
I asked, "So what are you going to do?" ”
The monster looked up at the sky, with green tears in its eyes, and it opened its mouth wide and said worriedly, "Get out of this sad place." ”
I thought, it's okay to do this, so as not to touch the scene and hurt your body.
The beast looked at me, and at the huge gorge where the waterfall flowed, and asked, "So, what about you, where did you come from, and where are you going?" It looked up again and looked around, its eyes a little appreciative and suspicious. "This uninhabited valley is deserted and uninhabited, and the wolves are infested, and it is already a miracle that you can reach this Grand Canyon. Tell me why you came and why you are going. ”
I hooked my lips and said, "Does it work!"
The monster looked at me with gloomy eyes and said, "Maybe I can help you." ”
I couldn't help but laugh at it, laughing at its incompetence and meddling. For now, it doesn't bother me, it does me the most favor. I'm running out of time right now. If you talk to it any longer, I'm afraid you'll lose all your efforts.
Warcraft said, "What I said is true. ”
I saw that it didn't look like a joke, and said, "Tell you, you can't help either." ”
The beast pursed its lips, its slender beard dangling through the valley. There was temptation in his tone: "Maybe it can help." ”
When I heard this, I stopped refusing.
I told it truthfully about my situation.
When it heard this, it looked comforted and said, "In that case, I can really help you." ”
My mouth arced, not taking it seriously. Can you send me a pair of wings and let me fly back to the World Pavilion!, I put away my sword and turned around to leave.
The monster raised his right hand: "Wait." ”
I stopped.
It said, "There is a shortcut to the Afterlife Hall, as long as you pass through it, you will not be far from the Afterlife Hall." ”
I paused for a moment and thought to myself, this isn't cheating. In the unlikely event that the chief does not recognize this road, what should he do? Since it is an assessment, it is necessary to follow the rules and regulations and conscientiously complete it in accordance with the agreement.
The monster was a little upset when he saw that I was hesitating. It said: "Don't be serious, no one can walk out of this uninhabited valley on foot, not to mention tigers, wolves, jackals and leopards, even the fog barriers in the forest will poison you." ”
I rolled my eyes, and it made sense. Since time is running out, let's not take it as an example.
I looked around at the wilderness, and there were no shortcuts other than the cliffs. I didn't feel a little angry and said, "Old wood, where is the shortcut you said!"
The beast pointed to the top of my head.
I looked up and saw that halfway up the mountainside, there was a huge karst cave with a silky mist. When I saw the direction of the cave, I suddenly realized that this cave was the place where the elves wanted me to get into. Why didn't it tell me!, I tilted my head and thought.
I clasp my hands together and thank God for your blessing.
"Thank you!" I geared up, getting ready to climb.
"Wait. The monster said again.
"What's the matter again!" I was like a leaky ball, and my whole body went limp.
The monster took out a square scarf from his bosom and held it in his hand. It seemed to have made a lot of determination and said to me, "Although it is a shortcut, there is a beautiful ladyboy who has been resented for thousands of years lives inside." This demon is cruel and unreasonable by nature, and if you go in like this, you will definitely die. ”
I listened and took two steps back. "You old immortal, you want to kill me!"
The monster's thick nose sucked, as if it was very sad. He handed me the scarf in his hand across the canyon and said, "Bring this to it, and the resentful woman will not embarrass you." ”
I took it, and I just felt heavy and mysterious.
"Thank you!" I clasped my hands and carefully placed it in my arms.
The beast seemed to have a preoccupation, waved at me, and jumped down the bottomless abyss.
"Why is that?" With tears in my eyes, I knelt on the cliff.
I don't know why it did it, whether it was a thousand years of loneliness, or because of love. All of a sudden, it became a mystery, and I couldn't figure it out. I touched the token in my arms, maybe after seeing the thousand-year-old resentful woman, everything will be revealed.
I finally climbed up to the cave, on top of a flat rock, rested for a while, and headed inside.
The further you go, the more damp the cave becomes, and tiny droplets of water dripping down the cliff wall. Under my feet, the rocks are uneven, and the seemingly steep cave is not difficult to walk, and when people walk on it, it seems that there is a suction pulling me, so that I don't feel difficult. The further I went, the dimmer and dimmer the light, and in the end, I had to turn on my perception function to identify the path under my feet.
I'm glad I lived in the dark for three years, and without that experience, I wouldn't be able to move an inch today.
And what I was looking forward to and worried about was the appearance of the thousand-year-old witch. I don't know what it will be like when we meet. Whether the gift of Warcraft is useful or not, I still don't know whether it is useful. After all, the thousand-year wait is a long time, and there are many things that will disappear into memory with the passage of time.
Of course, I'm also worried about whether there will be other monsters in this unpredictable cave, and if it is a trap set by the monsters, I may be wiped out and never see the light of day.
I don't know how many hours I've walked, but anyway, I feel like I'm lost in a small space, I don't know what to do. I was tired, but I didn't dare to stop, so I drank a little water and continued to grope for gold in the depths of the cave.
Finally, I saw a little bit of golden light, and I thought I was about to walk out of the long cave. When I got closer, I realized that it was something similar to a ceiling light attached to it.
Looking ahead, there is still darkness that is out of reach.
I was a little desperate and wanted to shout.
"Shhhh A voice came from the golden light.
I stopped, curiously looking at the light above me. Lowered his voice and asked, "You are!"
The light flew down and whispered in my ear, "I'm an elf, and I've been waiting for you here for a long time." ”
"Why don't you go. I asked.
It said, "The thousand-year-old witch is in the way, and I can't get by." ”
I looked up and saw nothing but darkness up there.
"It's around the corner, and if you go one step further and she'll get in the way. I can't beat it, so I'll have to wait for you here. The elf said.
