That punch seemed simple, but it made him unable to see through it. It hit one of the eyes of the python, and the latter just let out a whine and hid under the ground again.
"This python should be sleeping underground. We are so unlucky that we accidentally lit a fire in the place where the python is sleeping!"
"What should we do now? After destroying its sleeping place, this guy will definitely not let it go!" Some businessmen showed fear. Everything just happened was too sudden. If Lu Chen hadn't taken action, several of them would have become that python.
Things in the belly.
The mercenary captain frowned when he saw that the smoke did not force the python out. This kind of thing is very rare, unless there are too many underground passages and the python has hidden deep. If so, they really have nothing to do.
Hiding in the dark, they will give their caravan a fatal blow at any time.
According to the speed of the python just now, if they attack by surprise, they will not be able to protect these businessmen at all.
After thinking for a moment, the mercenary captain finally locked his eyes on the young man who was motionless in front of him.
"Master Lu, if you can help me, how about all the rewards this time are yours?"
The mercenary captain spoke. He did not understand the figure in front of him. He had not yet come to the isolated city during the battle that day.
The expressions on other merchants' faces were extremely ugly when they heard this, which was equivalent to telling them that the mercenaries they hired had no choice.
"Master Lu, as long as you take action, the goods this time will be yours!"
"Yes, I agree. I will give away 30% of my family property when I go back."
…
All of a sudden, various promises came one after another. Regarding these, Lu Chen just stared at the black hole in front of him.
A quarter of an hour later, he suddenly raised his right hand and said, "You keep the goods and I will go with you. I can't take advantage of you. In this way, if you do business in Gucheng in the future, can it be cheaper?"
"This..." Some businessmen looked at each other.
Seeing this, Lu Chen frowned slightly. He felt that his request was already very low!
"Master Lu, don't get me wrong. We just can't accept it for a while. This request is too low. In the future, all shops in my Gucheng will be given a 20% discount, and Lu family disciples will be given a 40% discount!"
"So are we!"
Lu Chen nodded. Businessmen value profits. It is not easy for them to make such concessions.
The price was reduced by nearly half in the blink of an eye, which made Lu Chen smile bitterly. The businessman in front of him basically hung half his life on his belt. It was really not easy to make such a profit.
"Thank you all very much. If you need help in Gucheng in the future, you can ask the Lu family for help."
"This..." The businessmen were shocked when they heard this. This was a promise, and they all knew the weight of this promise.
"Master Lu, if you take action for us, forget about the future. Today you have saved our lives!"
Lu Chen turned around and glanced at the merchant who had spoken. He was the one who brought him warm wine, and he couldn't help but be startled.
Businessmen are very profit-oriented. Many businessmen are greedy, but there are really very few who can be so greedy. I couldn't help but nod to this businessman.
"Will you follow me down?" He turned to look at the mercenary captain. Seeing that Lu Chen was willing to take action, the latter gritted his teeth and took the torch next to him.
Looking at the mercenaries beside him, "You all wait here. If I don't come back, I will leave the house to you to take care of me!"
"Brother..." The mercenaries around him immediately followed after hearing this. They were not from Gucheng. They encountered this kind of thing when they first came to Gucheng to take over work. They had already greeted this shitty place called Gucheng hundreds of times.
"Fuck me, stop here. Don't forget, as you promised back then, listen to me in everything!"
The mercenary captain was ready to leave and never return. He didn't want to lead his other brothers to death.
Lu Chen took one look, said nothing, and jumped into the deep cave.
As soon as he fell into the deep cave, his body fell rapidly. After more than ten breaths, he grabbed the protruding stone wall to stop his figure.
Bah!
Above, a figure also fell rapidly. After taking a look at the falling figure, Lu Chen leaned sideways against the wall of the cave to avoid it. He waited until the other person fell before grabbing him.
He used the torch in the mercenary's hand to look down, and then released the mercenary captain. The two of them also landed on the ground one after another. When they stopped in mid-air, he found that they were only half a foot above the ground.
Glancing at the cave above, Lu Chen frowned slightly. At such a high distance, even if a fire was lit above, the temperature would not spread so deeply.
"Huh?" Looking around, Lu Chen looked surprised. Not far away, there were neatly arranged cave entrances. There were six of them, each one exactly the same. The two of them landed exactly in the middle of the six cave entrances.
Here is the intersection of six cave entrances.
"Master Lu, there seems to be something wrong here!" The mercenary captain also noticed something unusual. How could an ordinary monster cave be like this?
"Look there!" Lu Chen nodded, then pointed at a pile of debris at the entrance of a cave and said.
The mercenary captain went over to take a look, and struck twice with his long bow, "Master Lu, it seems that the python is not sleeping here, but giving birth here. These should be snake eggs."
Looking at the egg in front of him, the mercenary captain's face looked a little ugly. This snake's courage was a bit outrageous.
Lu Chen glanced twice and nodded, looking around. Everything here did not look like a hole made by a python, especially the marks above the six holes. He did not believe that this python was so smart.
.
I walked through the six cave entrances one by one. Each cave entrance was exactly the same, even the air flow in and out was exactly the same.
"Master Lu, do we have to look for them one by one? This..."
Lu Chen shook his head, "You go up first, take the merchants away from the entrance of the cave, and have people sprinkle sulfur around the entrance of the cave, and then pour a ring of realgar wine on top of the sulfur."
"But, Master Lu, you go in alone..." Seeing that Lu Chen wanted to go alone, the mercenary captain hurriedly opened his mouth to dissuade him, but was stopped by the young man in front of him who raised his hand. Before he could speak again, the young man's figure had disappeared into a cave entrance.
Inside.
Shaking his head, the mercenary captain could only get up and crawl into the hole above. After a while, he was out of the cave. He ignored everyone and spread circles of sulfur around according to Lu Chen's instructions. He also poured realgar wine on the outermost edge.
"How is Young Master Lu Chen doing?" the businessman who delivered wine to Lu Chen asked anxiously.
"Yes! What's wrong with him? Master Lu is our savior, and he's only going down now because of us."
…
Facing many businessmen, the mercenary captain was also a little worried. He understood why Lu Chen asked him to come out. He was the same way a moment ago.
This attack and killing should have been resisted by their team of mercenaries.
"He's fine, please be quiet!"
The mercenary captain shouted loudly, and there was dead silence around him, "Everyone, please be quiet, let's wait for him to come out!"
Seeing everyone quiet down, the mercenary captain took a deep breath and then said.
In the crypt, Lu Chen's pace kept accelerating, and his previous caution gradually relaxed. He had been walking in this crypt for half an hour, from being cautious at first to walking slowly to now running at full speed, but the crypt here seemed to have no
It was like an end, no matter how fast he went, each crypt seemed to be frozen forever.
In the cave, no matter how he walked, there was only a passage and a figure. If it weren't for the cave gathering place that occasionally appeared, even Lu Chen would have felt as if he was dreaming.
It was another gathering place of caves. He randomly picked a cave and made a mark at the entrance of the cave. Lu Chen ducked into it.
After two breaths, a figure suddenly emerged from one of the caves.
"That's not right!" The figure murmured softly, scanning the place where the caves gathered.
"One, two, three...eight, there are actually eight caves here?" Lu Chen couldn't help but frown slightly. He had encountered several caves gathering places, and without exception, there were six caves gathered together.
This is the only place with eight caves.
After scanning around, there was nothing unusual, and the cave was no different from the one I had explored before.
"What on earth is going on? Could it be that the front..." Thinking of this, Lu Chen took two steps into another cave.
"Ten!"
"Twelve!"
"Twelve!"
…
"Or twelve? Could it be that twelve is the top? Twelve, what does this mean?" Lu Chen was confused. It was deep underground here. According to their previous itinerary, they had already left the isolated city for a few days. Plus, he
Running wildly underground, he couldn't guarantee that he could still return to the entrance to the underground cave.
"Teacher, is there any explanation for this?" Lu Chen really couldn't figure it out and couldn't help but ask Mr. Ge.
"Why are you so unlucky, little guy? You can be responsible for any bad thing. I've been looking at it for so long but I still don't have a clue. I don't know who the powerful person is who actually built such a shocking cave underground."
Elder Ge was amazed, amazed by these caves, and even more admired the strong men who built these caves.
Lu Chen scratched his head and felt helpless. It seemed that since his rise, the Lu family had been experiencing constant disasters. But suddenly, everyone seemed to have come back to their senses and looked at each other.
"What do you think I'm doing?" Mr. Ge seemed to have a guilty conscience and lacked the demeanor of a teacher.
"It's okay. I've been in all kinds of disasters since I met you. What do you think my disciple is thinking?"
"Why don't you go and have some fun with me? You're so unlucky and you want to find a scapegoat, but you all found the teacher. You..."
"Hey, isn't this just making the teacher happy?"
"Happy, can the old man be happy? After meeting you, the old man feels that half of his life has been lost. There are many things that even the old man doesn't know!" Mr. Ge shook his head, thinking that he was also a giant in the Central Region at the time, but now it's better, with
Compared with everything he saw, he looked like a little sheep.
"Teacher, do you feel like a little sheep during this time?"
The elder Ge was stunned, "How did you know?" As soon as the words came out, Lu Chen saw a sly smile on his face, and he immediately secretly exclaimed that he had been deceived.
"Little guy, you even made jokes about the teacher. I originally planned to let you try this earth-level spiritual technique, but now it seems that it is unnecessary!"
"Uh..." Lu Chen was speechless for a moment, "Teacher, what about it?"
"What's the matter? If you don't want to give it, don't give it to me. I just want to know how you know what I'm thinking!"
Lu Chen was speechless. He didn't expect the soul body in front of him to ask such a question, and he smiled.
