Chapter 13: The Blue Fire
Seeing the clever ghost disappear in front of him without a trace in an instant, Mu Qingxin's face showed a little surprise, Ren Mowen grew his mouth in surprise, and looked left and right to raise a little decibels: "Smart ghost, where did you go?"
"Brother Mo Wen, I'm right in front of you. As he spoke, the figure flashed and the ghost instantly appeared in the position where he was just now, and the stone in his hand was also put back on the ground: "This is a concealment technique, casting mana on the stone, which can allow us to hide our bodies in a short period of time so that we will not be discovered." ”
Mu Qingxin also picked up a stone when she heard the sound, and sure enough, it disappeared out of thin air the moment she touched the stone, and even her breath was completely hidden.
The blue light in the depths of the cave was still flashing, and with the safety guarantee, the three of them no longer wasted time, each took a stone and put it in their arms, and then tiptoed into the cave.
The space inside the cave was so large that it seemed to have hollowed out the entire stone mountain, and a thick layer of medicinal herbs was laid on the ground. Although it is very soft to step on, the smell is really painful.
After advancing along the cave wall for a distance of several tens of meters, the faint blue light became brighter and brighter, until they came to the inside of the cave completely, and the three of them found that there was a natural stone bed in the cave, and on the stone bed sat a naked figure with a strange complexion.
The figure was slightly thin, and its dark blue skin was shrouded in a layer of dark blue flames that were burning violently, and the faint blue light that the few people had seen outside the cave just now was emitted by these flames.
The three of them walked to a place more than ten meters away from the figure, stopped, and observed quietly. And the figure didn't seem to notice that an outsider had intruded, and sat quietly on the edge of the stone bed, gathering a dark blue flame from the surface of his body and playing back and forth.
Ren Mowen lowered his voice and asked quietly, "What is that? Human or demon? It doesn't seem that the aura is very strong, but it is only slightly stronger than that of ordinary mortals." ”
Mu Qingxin's voice immediately sounded from the side: "Our mission this time is to investigate, we can't act rashly, find out its reality and return to Linggu to recover before making a decision!"
Because of the protection of concealment, the three of them got closer, and finally stood in front of the figure less than ten meters away from the figure to observe carefully.
At such a close distance, the situation of the figure was clearly seen by the three of them. Although the shadow was in human form, its face was very hideous and ugly, with no hair on its body, its mouth was covered with sharp fangs, and its eyes shone blue, like two small flames.
Its hands were clenched together, and some of the blue flames on the surface of its body flowed and coalesced into an apple-sized ball of fire, expanding and shrinking as it fiddled back and forth.
The three of them stood not far away, but they didn't feel the slightest heat, and the surroundings became even colder.
Time passed minute by minute, and just as Ren Mowen was about to beckon the other two to leave, he turned his head and suddenly found that the clever ghost and Mu Qingxin had both appeared in sight, and suddenly whispered suspiciously: "Clever ghost, you concealment technique...... Can we see each other?"
Without thinking about it, the clever ghost shook his head and replied, "Of course I can't see it, I can't even see myself." ”
As soon as the words fell, he seemed to notice the abnormality, looked down at his body, and then the three of them took out the stone in their arms together.
At this time, the three stones had lost their aura and light, and they had completely turned into the ordinary appearance they had before, and the clever ghost frowned: "Oops, I forgot that the spiritual power was divided into three parts, and the hiding time was shortened by one-third, while it hasn't found us yet, let's go!"
However, at the same time as the three of them slowly turned around, the monster on the stone bed seemed to sense something, and then suddenly raised its head with both hands, looked at the three people who were close at hand and screamed, and the long fangs of the upper and lower rows were all bared out!
Now that they had been discovered, they didn't have to worry much more, and the three of them immediately ran towards the entrance of the cave as fast as they could.
The monster was also very annoyed, and jumped up from the stone bed and turned into a blue ray of light and chased after it!
Among the three, the clever ghost was the fastest, and he had already come to the outside of the cave in two clicks, picking up a few and a half large stones and throwing them at the monster, buying time for Mu Qingxin and Ren Mowen.
In terms of resourcefulness and courage, Mu Qingxin is even stronger, but in terms of strength and exercises, in fact, Ren Mowen, who seems to be weak, is slightly better.
He followed closely behind the clever ghost, and when he was about to jump out of the cave, he turned his head to look behind him, and suddenly found that the monster was hit by a stone, although it slowed down, he raised his right hand and threw out the blue flame that was originally used to play, and the target was Mu Qingxin, who fell at the end!
Mu Qingxin's steps were fluttering, and she was trying her best to run outside the cave, completely unaware of the danger behind her.
There was no time for Ren Mowen to hesitate, he immediately turned back and pushed Mu Qingxin aside at the last moment.
After stumbling a few steps, Mu Qingxin stabilized her body and jumped out of the cave, and although Ren Mowen had jumped away with a very fast speed, he was still hit by the fireball in his left arm, and he also jumped out after screaming.
In just a few seconds, the ghost had quickly set up an enchantment around the entrance of the cave, and then beckoned the other two to run all the way back to the woods from the stone mountain.
At the entrance to the cave on the mountainside, the humanoid monster with dark blue flames all over its body then jumped out, completely ignoring the barrier as if it didn't exist. It stood on the platform on the mountainside and looked around, then roared in annoyance and disappeared into the trees on one side.
Seeing the monster disappear on the side of the mountain forest, the three people hiding in the grass breathed a sigh of relief, and the clever ghost and Mu Qingxin checked Ren Mowen's injuries in detail, but found that Ren Mowen was in extreme pain, his expression almost became distorted, and the blue flame stained on his right arm was still burning!
Seeing this, Mu Qingxin immediately took out the water bag on his body and poured all the water on his arm, but it had no effect, and the blue flame on the contrary seemed to be more vigorous. The clever ghost also lifted the sand from the ground and covered it with the flames, which could not stop the flames from burning at all.
As time slowly passed, Ren Mowen's face was pale and sweating profusely, and his whole person was almost in pain. The entire right arm gradually turned black as the flames burned, and finally evolved into a completely black and dry section, exactly like the situation of those dead bodies!
During this time, Mu Qingxin and the clever ghost tried all the feasible and unfeasible methods they could think of to extinguish the fire, but they were never able to extinguish the flames. It wasn't until Ren Mowen's right arm completely dried up and turned black that the blue flame gradually became smaller, and then slowly extinguished......
