Chapter 224: The Mystery in the Cave
"This, what's going on?" Ye Hao was puzzled in his heart, could it be that this formation illusion was so against the sky, and it could not keep changing by itself?
Ye Hao didn't know why, but when he saw that there seemed to be a fire flickering in the cave, he couldn't care much about it, and jumped into the cave in a flash.
When I entered the cave, I looked around, but it was pitch black, and I couldn't see my five fingers, and there was still a trace of fire.
"Hey, it's really strange, I saw a fire flickering outside the cave just now, but when I came in, it was pitch black, could it be that what I saw was just an illusion?"
Ye Hao stretched out his hand and touched it, and the place where it was tentacled was a cold rock.
"No, this is obviously a cave, not an illusion. Ye Hao touched the rock on the cave wall and walked forward cautiously, after walking for a long time, it was still pitch black, and he was a little hesitant in his heart, wanting to touch back along the way he came.
But at this moment, there were suddenly a few faint cries in my ears, the voice was delicate, as if it was a woman who was crying.
"There are people inside! How could a woman's cry come from such a dark cave, it's not strange!" Ye Hao was puzzled, so he dispelled the idea of returning the same way, and continued to touch the rock and walk forward.
After walking for a while, I felt that the tentacles had changed, and there seemed to be no way ahead, so I reached forward and touched it carefully, only to find that it was a stone door, Ye Hao pushed hard, and the stone door slowly opened, revealing a stone road that was more than one person tall and only allowed one person to pass.
Ye Hao was tall, and after entering this stone path, he actually needed to bend down slightly and bow his head to pass.
After walking for a short time, the cave became spacious again, Ye Hao walked in the dark for a long time, his eyes gradually adapted, and he faintly saw three stone gates appear in front of him, and he didn't know where they all led.
Ye Hao was a little hesitant, not knowing which way to go, just at this time. Again the sound of a woman crying was heard in front of her, and the cry echoed in the cavern, and it was extremely difficult to distinguish.
Ye Hao pricked up his ears, listened carefully, and finally recognized that the cry was coming from within the stone gate on the right.
So without hesitation, he pushed the stone door open and got in.
After walking for a while, the cry gradually became clearer, and Ye Hao's steps quickened. Orient yourself and walk quickly in the direction where the cry came from.
After walking for a short time, there was a faint firelight in front of her, and the woman's crying was coming from the firelight.
And after each row of candles, there is a cave, which is densely packed. It was like an ant's nest, and then looked up closely, there seemed to be two big golden characters at the top of those caves, Ye Hao carefully distinguished. Only then did I realize that it was written with the word "thunder".
"What do you mean...... Ye Hao frowned, thought carefully, and raised his eyebrows.
"Penalty Thunder...... Thunder Penalty ...... Ah, this ...... Could it be that this is the forbidden place for felons in the sect - the Thunder Punishment Cave!" Ye Hao thought of this. was suddenly shocked, and he accidentally entered the thunder penalty hole.
Ye Hao had heard Dan Luoxia say. There are disciples who have committed serious crimes in the sect, as well as some demons and demons in the world, and there are ninety-nine thunder seals in each cave, and it is impossible for anyone to escape.
"But, aren't the people imprisoned in the Thunder Punishment Cave all heinous wicked people? How can there be a woman's crying voice, this voice is weak and weak, and there is no trace of vitality, it should be an ordinary person who has no power to restrain chickens, how can there be ordinary people in the Thunder Punishment Cave!"
Ye Hao was puzzled, so he wanted to check it out.
He calmed down and listened carefully, and although there was no crying in his ears, there was still a faint sound of sobbing.
Ye Hao followed the sound of sobbing, turned a row of candles, and led to a hidden cave, and when he got closer, he saw that there was a thunderbolt in the cave.
Ye Hao didn't care much, jumped into the cave, and the scene that caught his eye made him stunned for a moment.
In the middle of the cave sat a little girl of two or three years old, who was trembling with her knees in her arms, whimpering and sobbing with tears.
"God, how can it be a little girl of two or three years old, is she also a heinous person, why is she locked up in the Thunder Punishment Cave!" Ye Hao was shocked, so he wanted to step forward and ask what happened.
The moment he stepped forward, suddenly a thunderbolt slashed down without warning, Ye Hao was taken aback, hurriedly flipped out, and narrowly avoided this thunderbolt, cold sweat couldn't help but break out on his back, if he moved a little slower, I am afraid that he would be scorched by this sharp thunderbolt.
Hearing the thunder, the little girl raised her head, and her big teary eyes were cast at Ye Hao.
"Hey, why did you change people?What about Sister Hongqing?" The little girl seemed a little surprised when she saw Ye Hao.
"Hongqing? Isn't that Ling'er's senior sister, the eldest disciple under Senior Uncle Chen's seat? I've been here for a few years, and I've never seen this senior sister? Could it be that she has been guarding this thunder punishment cave here?"
Thinking of this, he hurriedly replied: "Little sister, don't be afraid, Hongqing is my senior sister, and my name is Ye Hao." ”
"Oh, I'm not afraid of you. ”
"Uh......" Ye Hao was speechless for a while when he heard this.
"Sister Hongqing, did she go to drink grandma, so she let her brother come?" the little girl said in a daze.
"Drink grandma?" Ye Hao was stunned for a while, did not react, and only after a while did he understand that the little girl said "drinking grandma" must mean milk, thinking that this little girl often feeds milk, so he thought that others also need milk.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help crying and laughing, and I didn't know how to answer for a while, so I had to say: "Uh, yes, Sister Hongqing is going to drink grandma......" Speaking of this, I couldn't help laughing, I heard that this senior sister Hongqing has a very high cultivation, and she rarely speaks coldly on weekdays, if she knew that she said this, I don't know if she would be so angry that she would go crazy.
After a pause, he said, "Little sister, what's your name?"
The little girl pouted, "My name is Ruoyi." ”
"Who are your father and mother?" Ye Hao continued to ask.
The little girl shook her head blankly and said, "I don't know. ”
"Then why are you locked up here?" Ye Hao asked again.
The little girl still shook her head: "I don't know." ”
"That'...... So why are you crying? What is it that makes you uncomfortable?"
The little girl thought for a moment and said, "I don't want to stay here, I want to go home." As he spoke, he seemed to think of something sad, and he began to sobble again.
Ye Hao couldn't bear it, and said, "Then where is your home?" Tell my brother, and my brother will take you home." ”
When the little girl heard this, she cried even more sadly: "I don't know, I don't remember." ”
Ye Hao secretly wondered, this little girl must have lost her mind, why didn't she know anything, so he asked again, "How long have you been here?"
The little girl stopped crying, raised her hand, stretched out three fingers and said, "Sister Hongqing told me that I have been here for almost three years. ”
"What! Almost three years?" Ye Hao was shocked when he heard this, and secretly said that this little girl was only two or three years old, could it be that she had been locked up here since she was born?
Ye Hao had the heart to find out, but when he asked, this little girl didn't know anything, and he couldn't help but secretly think that he would have the opportunity to ask Shizun to ask for an understanding in the future.
The little girl couldn't answer Ye Hao's question, so she cried anxiously, her voice was crisp and soft, and her big eyes were swollen like a peach, which was even more pitiful, making Ye Hao unbearable to look at it again.
But at this moment, a thunderclap-like voice came from the cave next door: "His grandmother's, little girl, don't cry, I'm about to be annoyed to death by you!"
Ye Hao was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that there were many wicked people locked up in this thunder punishment cave, and the people who were locked up in the cave next door were disturbed by the crying of this little girl, so he scolded him.
Ye Hao's face was cold, and he was about to reprimand him angrily, but the little girl took the lead in shouting: "Big turtle, big turtle, why can't I cry when I'm so uncomfortable, I'm going to cry, I'm going to annoy you, you have the ability to come and beat me." ”
When the man next door heard this, he looked up to the sky and sighed, and suddenly fell silent.
Ye Hao was amused in his heart, the voice of the person next door was like a bell, ringing like a thunderbolt, and he seemed to be a great character, but he was choked by this little girl as soon as he said half a word, every cave in this thunder punishment cave has ninety-nine thunder law seals, he wanted to come over and seal this little girl's mouth, but he couldn't do it, he must be depressed to death at this time.
Ye Hao laughed unconsciously, and said to the little girl: "Xiao Ruoyi, after my brother goes back and asks the head master clearly, find a way to take you out, okay?"
The little girl blinked and said, "Brother, are you telling the truth?"
Ye Hao said softly: "Of course it's true, maybe there is some misunderstanding here, I will definitely find a way to let the head master let you out." ”
The little girl was very happy, clapped her hands and said, "Okay, okay, brother, you have to talk and count." ”
"Of course. ”
The little girl stood up happily and danced with her hands: "Great, great, Ruoyi is going out, Ruoyi is going out." ”
The little girl jumped for a while, seemed to be a little weak, coughed lightly, and a cute little face was pale and frightening.
Ye Hao didn't know why, his heart ached, and he secretly decided that he must find a way to let Shizun release this little girl.
But at this moment, the voice in the cave next door came out again: "Boy, what did you just say about the head master, are you Xiao Bai Lao'er's disciple?"
Ye Hao said coldly: "My master is Yuan Zidao, Xiao Sheng is my ancestor, who are you?"
The next door fell silent, and said for a while: "It turns out that the sword guide has changed heads, and this Yuan Zidao should be Xiao Bai's apprentice of that old bastard." (To be continued......)
