Chapter 412 Possibly Still a Fellow
Dongming Ziyu also heard it, and the tenderness in his eyes faded like a fleeting light, replaced by vigilance and solemnity.
The two of them exchanged a knowing look, then got up, put on their clothes, and equipped themselves with all the self-defense items.
The sound became clearer and clearer. It was indeed the movement of snakes crawling.
Shangguan Ruoli whispered: "We'd better leave here, after all, we occupy other people's territory."
Dongming Ziyu said calmly: "Go and see the situation at the entrance of the cave."
"Okay!" Shangguan Ruoli turned around like a soldier receiving an order and ran to the entrance of the cave.
Then...she suddenly stopped.
Damn it! What kind of cave is this?
Why are you halfway up the cliff?
It's neither going up to the sky nor touching the ground. It's raining outside right now, just like the Water Curtain Cave in Journey to the West.
No wonder the guy asked her to check on the situation!
"Haha..." Dongming Ziyu laughed in a mischievous manner.
Shangguan Ruoli has a dark look on his face, this guy is really childish sometimes!
However, we are adults and do not have the same experience as him. When we returned to him, we said, "It looks like there is going to be a battle today. I am afraid that we will stab the snake's nest like the one at Fengwei Mountain."
Dongming Ziyu recalled the scene when the two of them fought together, and raised the corners of his lips, "The location of this cave is similar to that cave, they are both in the middle of the cliff."
Shangguan Ruoli's eyes lit up, "Maybe I can find a Sanshengcao. Then I'll cleanse the meridians and cut the marrow again. Maybe my martial arts will be able to catch up with you."
Dongming Ziyu pinched her little nose and said fondly: "I know how to take advantage of opportunities. You have obtained Xiao Fei's internal strength for twenty or thirty years. How many days have you practiced the internal strength and mental skills? You have to digest food, right?"
Shangguan Ruoli chuckled dryly, "Aren't I busy? When I return to the capital, I will practice hard."
Having said that, she still hopes to encounter another Sanshengcao today.
The rustling sound stopped, probably because of the sight of the fire.
But until that thing comes out, they can't rest, and the two sides are just facing each other.
The fire was getting smaller and smaller, it was getting dark outside, the rain was heavy, and there were no more branches or dry firewood to be found on the cliff.
Dongming Ziyu drew out his soft sword, "It looks like we have to get rid of the things inside before the fire goes out."
"That's what I meant!" Shangguan Ruoli nodded, took a burning stick from the fire, illuminated it, and walked toward the cave.
Dongming Ziyu took two steps quickly and blocked Shangguan Ruoli behind him.
Shangguan Ruoli felt warm in his heart, it felt good to be protected.
She was a loner and was used to charging into battles on her own, so she was not used to hiding behind men like a little woman.
Shangguan Ruoli stood on tiptoes, kissed his neck from behind, and said with a smile, "It feels so good to be protected by your own man."
Dongming Ziyu's body stiffened, "You are still naughty now, let's see how I teach you a lesson later!"
Shangguan Ruoli put his arm around his waist, touched him in front of him, and said with a smile: "Maybe there are martial arts secrets in it, maybe it is connected to the treasures of the ancient tomb! Then you won't have such thoughts!"
When men and women enter a mountain or fall off a cliff, there must be a cave. In the cave, they will definitely have close contact, and they will definitely find martial arts secrets or magical herbs, or discover huge treasures... It's all written like this in novels!
Now that the first two have been fulfilled, the latter should be true too!
She held a torch and walked in with great interest. The further in, the cave became narrower and the temperature became lower. She felt that the cold wind was getting into the cracks of her bones.
I feel a little scared in my heart, but I will fight for the secrets of martial arts and the treasure!
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, the cave was so narrow that only one person could pass through.
Shangguan Ruoli said softly: "I have a hunch that there should be harvests in the past, maybe it will be a paradise."
After all, it is said in the book: When you are extremely narrow at first, you will be able to understand others. After taking dozens of steps, you will suddenly become enlightened.
Dongming Ziyu chuckled: "You have such a rich imagination!"
Silly and cute!
Shangguan Ruoli was dissatisfied, but before she had walked ten steps, she fainted because she seemed to smell a fishy smell.
They have fought with snakes before and are familiar with the smell.
Yes, it smells like snake.
Pointing the sleeve crossbow forward and raising the torch, she saw two small eyes glowing in the darkness ahead.
Where is the promised martial arts secret book? Where is the promised treasure? Sure enough, everything in the novel is a lie!
Dongming Ziyu said softly: "Don't be afraid, it's much smaller than what we encountered in Fengwei Mountain."
Shangguan Ruoli looked over Dongming Ziyu's shoulder and saw a big snake about the same thickness as her arm, looking at them warily.
After a moment, he swam towards them while spitting out the letter. He raised his head and made an attack posture.
Suddenly! The snake opened its mouth and pounced towards them.
"Lower your head!" Dongming Ziyu pulled her to squat down, avoiding the snake's attack, and at the same time swung the soft sword.
Just the sound of a sharp blade cutting flesh was heard, the snake's head fell to the ground, and the cave was immediately filled with the smell of blood.
Dongming Ziyu picked up the snake's body and said, "Let's go back and roast the snake meat."
When he said this, Shangguan Ruoli also felt hungry and turned around holding a torch.
As she turned around, her eyes inadvertently glanced at the stone wall beside her. Suddenly, she froze...
She felt her head buzzing, and a rush of hot blood rushed to her forehead.
"What did you find?" Dongming Ziyu followed her gaze and looked over.
The stone wall is covered with thick moss, but faint traces can be seen.
Dongming Ziyu leaned over and took a look, "It's not handwriting, it's like a symbol."
"Yes! It's not an ordinary symbol!" Shangguan Ruoli's blood boiled, and his whole person was filled with a kind of crazy excitement.
He took out his dagger and scraped away the thick moss, and the writing on the stone wall slowly became clear...
Dongming Ziyu was also infected by her emotions. He carefully observed the symbols and asked doubtfully: "What symbol is this? Do you recognize it?"
Shangguan Ruoli nodded heavily, "e!"
"What do you mean?" Dongming Ziyu frowned.
Shangguan Ruoli knows a lot about weird things, but he knows nothing about them. This feeling is really bad.
"It means welcome, there is an arrow here!" Shangguan Ruoli was very excited, which means that someone has been here before, maybe he is a fellow villager!
Dongming Ziyu had many questions in his mind, but he knew that now was not the time to ask questions. He was waiting to return to the capital and she took the initiative to tell him everything.
Suggested: "Would you like to follow the direction of the arrow and take a look?"
Shangguan Ruoli sincerely praised: "My man is smart, this arrow indicates the direction, let's go and see!"
After the torches burned out, the two took out the luminous pearl and walked forward over the snake's body.
After walking for dozens of steps, there was no road ahead, and what stood in front of us was a stone door.
The stone door is covered with green moss. Judging from the thickness of the moss, it must be hundreds of years old.
