Chapter 201: Keep going

Suddenly, Lu Shi, who was at the bottom, hurriedly said: "Be careful." ”

Xu Chen and Tang Yan were taken aback, and hurriedly guarded, only to see that on the stone wall not far below, there was a small stone cave, and there were two small groups of shining and deep eyes in the cave, looking at them.

Lu Shi gestured to them, and then slowly leaned over, Xu Chen and Tang Yan both held their breath and looked there carefully.

Approaching, I don't know how long there has been no light shining in this dark place, when the golden light of Lu Shi's giant axe illuminates this small hole, they see what is inside: it is a rat the size of a palm, using this small hole as a nest, and is now staring at the three uninvited guests with wide eyes.

Behind the mouse, several larger rats were gnawing on a slightly fleshy bone, and several people looked at it, but their hearts were cold.

In the faint light, the rat was eating a finger bone, a human finger bone.

The Chaoyang Empire has always been strong, who has ever seen a rat that eats human flesh?

Lu Shi shook his head, retreated, and glanced at Xu Chen and Tang Yan behind him, the three of them smiled bitterly, or helplessly, and then went down again.

However, the next scene was also something they never expected.

Lighting up the light, the bright light that is bright or dark in the dark, faint and dark, slowly brightens up around them, front and back, left and right, up and down. In the darkness, there seemed to be countless low gasps, and there seemed to be a low roar in the depths of the darkness.

Although it seems to be a barren land above the Ancient Flame Cave, there is no life, but below this cliff, deep into the ground where there is no daylight, there are countless creatures that surprisingly and unexpectedly multiply here.

The darkness seemed to lift the eternal veil before their eyes, and with an inexplicable heartbeat, starting from the rat hole, and then going down, the large and small stone caves on the stone wall gradually increased, and then there was a hole almost a few feet apart. And in that cave, there are all kinds of strange creatures.

This was the animal they had been a little impressed with, but after descending a short distance, they were even more stunned to see that there were crabs that had been born in the water on the stone wall, and this crab had four pincers, and then there was a cute nine-legged chinchilla that could not be named.

Countless eyes, as if converging into a sea of ghostly light, stared at the three people in the halo.

Countless pairs of eyes in the darkness were all staring at the people in the three halos at this moment. Xu Chen didn't know why, his heart was still a little hairy, and he looked at Tang Yan and Lu Shi, but found that the faces of the two of them were not very good-looking, thinking that they had never experienced such a scene before.

Despite this, the countless creatures around them did not make any moves to attack the two of them, except for a few irritable looking tigers and leopards that roared twice, there was basically no movement, just silent watching.

They continued to descend slowly, and after falling for about another four or five zhang distance, Xu Chen suddenly noticed that the number of bioluminescent eyes around them was gradually decreasing, but it felt that the size of each glowing eye was much larger than what he saw just now.

He frowned, and silently moved closer to the edge of the stone wall, and sure enough, with the light of the burning small jade sword, he found that the number of holes on the pitch-black stone wall was much less, but the size of each hole was more than twice as large as the one above, and almost every hole was higher than one person. Correspondingly, the creatures in this cave are also obviously fierce and vicious, almost all of them are quite large, with sharp teeth and fangs, and hideous faces, which makes people feel cold in their hearts.

Among them, the more vicious, seeing Xu Chen approaching, a monster that looked like a boar but had a huge bear head, roared, and the giant claws swung out, almost hitting his body.

Xu Chen was taken aback and stepped back a few feet. At this time, Tang Yan and Lu Shi heard the sound and looked at him, Xu Chen said softly: "It seems that there are more ferocious monsters here, let's be careful." ”

Tang Yan and Lu Shi both nodded, each concentrating on guard.

But apart from being close to the stone wall and being attacked by those monsters, the three of them were not harassed in any other way. It seems that although these monsters are ferocious, they do not have the ability to fly into the air, so they can only stay in the cave. Xu Chen carefully controlled his flight, and at the same time thought to himself: I don't know if these monsters can't fly, but how do they hunt on this cliff?

In this way, the three of them descended a few more feet. At this time, from the cliff of the Ancient Flame Cave, they had at least penetrated nearly a hundred zhang deep into the ground, but looking down, this deep and huge black hole, except for the bright light emitted by the eyes of those strange creatures around them, was still deep and invisible.

What is even more different from the previous perception is that under this abyss, instead of feeling cold, on the contrary, the temperature here is much higher than above the surface of the Ancient Flame Cave, and at this moment, Xu Chen even feels that he is about to sweat. Looking around, it was still pitch black, and there was not even a sign of Martian heat, which was very weird.

Lu Shi held the giant axe, and when he slowly descended, he suddenly cursed in his mouth: "This dead fox, can actually live here? ”

Xu Chen was nothing, but he heard Tang Yan not far away "fluttering" and laughed lowly. The laughter was crisp and pleasant, and although she lowered her voice, it seemed to spread far away in this quiet space.

Xu Chen looked at her, only to see that in the red halo of earth blood snow lotus, Tang Yan smiled like a flower, and her eyebrows and eyes were full of gentleness, at this moment she seemed to feel something, turned her head to look at Xu Chen, the two looked at each other, Xu Chen's heart jumped, and he quickly turned his head again.

Further down, the situation seems to have changed slightly, the hole in the stone wall is still slowly getting bigger, and the creatures inside are larger than those in the stone cave above, and they look bigger than ordinary people. But here, the three of them unexpectedly found that nearly half of the cave was empty. And in the air, which has always been relatively fresh, there seems to be a faint smell of blood at this moment.

The three of them glanced at each other, and there was a look of wariness in their eyes, but Rao did not slow down their descent.

In the boundless darkness under his feet, there seemed to be something, like starlight, like fire, quietly lit up.

Above the abyss, Guan Xuzi and his granddaughter Xiaoling finally walked to the edge of the cliff where Xu Chen and the others jumped just now under the light of the torches. Looking at this cliff with no way out, as well as the unfathomable bottomless abyss at his feet, Guan Xuzi opened his mouth and was speechless.

Xiao Ling is not very old after all, although he has been wandering the world with his grandfather at a young age, but in this dark and silent ancient flame cave, he still can't help but feel a little scared in his heart. She glanced at the bottom of the cliff, immediately retracted her head, and whispered to Guan Xuzi: "Grandpa, do you have a way to go down?"

Guan Xuzi's eyes rolled a few times, and his eyes flickered, "Are we cultivators?"

"Should, shouldn't it be?"

"That's right. ”

Guan Xuzi smiled slightly, "So, now...... But what a disaster. ”

Xiao Ling breathed a sigh of relief, clapped his heart with his hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

Guan Xuzi glared at her and said, "What's good, there may be a mountain of gold and silver, an agate and a jade mountain waiting for us underneath, this time, but, but it's a big loss!"

Xiao Ling snorted and said, "Return the gold and silver mountains, I think maybe it's the corpse mountain and the bone mountain waiting for you! Okay, since you can't go down, let's go quickly." Otherwise, if you run into one or two little demons, you famous ......"

"Shh

Guan Xuzi hurriedly stopped Xiao Ling from talking, and was furious: "Nonsense, what kind of person I care about Xuzi, why can't I think of ......"

Before the words fell, suddenly in this silent cave, on the road, from the darkness "instigated" twice, there were two flashes of light, as fast as lightning flashes, and in the blink of an eye, they actually fell in front of the two of them.

Guan Xuzi screamed, pulled Xiao Ling, and stretched out his right hand into his arms. Unexpectedly, the light shook twice, and two figures came out, and the movements of the people who came were even faster like ghosts, only to hear a crisp sound of "hiss", Guan Xuzi's neck was cold, but it had been put on the side of the neck by a thing, and the cold hairs on the whole body stood up, and the heart was bitter.

After calming down a little, Guan Xuzi found that the other party did not take his life, but the thing around his neck was not taken away. I had the courage to look at the two people, but I saw two young men, a man and a woman, the man's face was like a crown of jade, very handsome, and the woman's face was like a hibiscus, delicate and unparalleled.
