Lin Xiaodong was dragged into the cave, thinking in his mind: That fish is thicker than me, I can get in wherever it can, and I'll see where you can go.
It was pitch dark in the cave. As he turned left and right, Lin Xiaodong hit his head and was bleeding. Finally, his eyes lit up. When he came out of the cave, it was still a piece of water, but the water temperature was much hotter than before, and the sun seemed to be brighter than before.
Lin Xiaodong looked up and saw that the silverbait's physical strength began to decline and it could no longer swim. The scales on its body were burned due to the fish skin and could not be restored.
"Humph, it's my turn."
Lin Xiaodong shook his hand, and the vines quickly extended and tightly entangled the whitebait. Without the protection of scales, the vines directly penetrated into the flesh. The whitebait flicked its tail again, and finally died.
Lin Xiaodong held in his breath until his head came up, and emerged from the water with a huff.
As soon as he emerged from the water, he felt a burst of heat, and the sun burned his skin. When he climbed ashore, Lin Xiaodong looked around and was surprised.
This is actually a desert spring.
It was noon at this time, and the sun was so fierce that it felt as hot and painful as if I had applied pepper spray on my body. There was vast desert everywhere, steam was rising, and this small lake was only a few feet square.
Lin Xiaodong put up the pavilion with his hands and looked around, and found that the Tianzhong Mountain was already behind him. He was led by the silver fish and bypassed the Tianzheng Mountain from underwater and came directly to the Netherworld Desert.
"Hahahaha, God helped me. I didn't expect to find a shortcut after falling under the cliff. Lan Ruo was saved, and it didn't delay the trip!"
Lin Xiaodong was so happy that he couldn't wait to take a deep breath, turned around and jumped into the water again.
Returning along the original path of the cave, the water became colder and colder, so cold that I shivered unconsciously. After exiting the cave, I swam up to take another breath, and then dived down again to collect the herbs I just saw.
Without the harassment of whitebait, Lin Xiaodong could concentrate on searching. He searched a large area around him, took a breath several times, picked a lot of aquatic plants, and went back happily.
On the way back, he met Cai Cai who was searching in mid-air. He landed and said happily: "That's great, I thought you..." Lin Xiaodong smiled happily: "Not only did I find the medicinal materials, I also found a way out!"
After hearing this, Cai Cai flapped her wings excitedly: "Really?
Very good!"
"Well, the fish was injured, so it took me underwater, into a cave, and then came out again. I still held my breath, and when I came out of the water, I found that I was actually in the desert, and
We have already crossed the Celestial Burial Mountain."
Lin Xiaodong's eyebrows were beaming.
Cai Cai was very happy: "Great, you can go out now!"
"Let's go, give Lan Ruo some medicine first when we get back."
Lin Xiaodong walked away immediately.
Cai Cai was unhappy and said in disgust: "That woman is so vicious that she dares to betray you, yet you still risk your life to save her?
I think you are stupid!"
Lin Xiaodong said calmly: "Didn't she risk her life to save me at the last moment?
I saved her life as a favor.
Besides, if I don’t save myself, who will I be?”
Caicai stopped talking and went back to find Lan Ruo and Bai Yuquan with Lin Xiaodong.
At noon, when the sun was shining on the bottom of the valley, Bai Yuquan carried Lan Ruo to a cool place. She was suffering from poisonous poison and her whole body was hot, so Bai Yuquan scooped up river water and poured it on her body to cool down.
Fortunately, Lin Xiaodong came back in time. When Bai Yuquan saw Lin Xiaodong holding a pile of water plants, he knew that he had found the medicinal materials, and hurriedly came up to see: "This is it?"
Ouch, there are really a lot of good things underwater!”
Lin Xiaodong told Bai Yuquan about how he met silverbait underwater and found his way out by mistake. Bai Yuquan also looked happy and nodded repeatedly: "It's great, great, I didn't expect the three of us to fall to the bottom.
But he encountered many strange encounters. Not only did he not die, but he also took medicinal herbs to improve his state, and even found a shortcut to the Netherworld Desert!"
Lin Xiaodong took out some of the herbs and said, "Give Lan Ruo half of it first, and the remaining half when she gets sick."
Walking up to Lan Ruo, Lin Xiaodong reached out and touched her forehead, which was as hot as fire.
With a squeaking sound, Lin Xiaodong tore off a corner of Lan Ruo's skirt, wrapped the medicinal herbs, and smashed it with a stone to squeeze out the medicinal juice, which dripped into Lan Ruo's mouth.
Bai Yuquan and Lin Xiaodong both sat in front of Lan Ruo, waiting to see the effect. After a while, the red lines in the capillaries on Lan Ruo's face disappeared, her face was no longer red, and the tip of her nose stopped sweating.
"It seems to be working."
Bai Yuquan put his hand on Lan Ruo's forehead.
Lin Xiaodong breathed a sigh of relief: "It's just effective. Even if it can't be cured, it should be no problem to suppress it for ten days and a half."
After waiting for a while, Lan Ruo felt hazy, her whole body felt sore, she frowned, groaned in discomfort, twisted her body, and opened her eyes.
Lan Ruo turned her head and saw Lin Xiaodong and Bai Yuquan guarding her. They were busy trying to sit up and asked, "What's wrong with me?"
Lin Xiaodong waved to Lan Ruo: "Just lie down and rest. You were poisoned and unconscious. We found medicinal materials and gave them to you to eat, which temporarily suppressed the heat poison."
Bai Yuquan added jealously on the side: "Lin Xiaodong went into the water to find extremely cold water plants for you. He encountered a spiritual beast and a fish bigger than a human. He spent a lot of effort and risked his life to get that
The fish was killed and herbs were found for you to eat. Look, there are wounds all over the body and head."
When Lan Ruo heard what Bai Yuquan said, she raised her head and glanced at Lin Xiaodong, then quickly looked away. Just as Bai Yuquan said, when Lin Xiaodong passed through the cave, his scalp and arms were scratched, and blood was still pouring out.
"Thanks."
Lan Ruo held up the leaves under her body, sat up, lowered her head and whispered.
Lin Xiaodong pursed his lips and said nothing.
Lan Ruo lowered her head, eyes red, suddenly pulled Lin Xiaodong's arm, and said: "I'm sorry!"
Lin Xiaodong looked at Lan Ruo's white hands holding his arms, raised his head and asked, "Why did you do that?"
Lan Ruo retracted her hand and sighed softly: "You guessed it right, I approached you with impure motives in the first place."
Lin Xiaodong nodded slightly.
Lan Ruo lowered her head and said quietly: "I am a killer trained by Wanfangzhai. I am here to assassinate you and steal the vegetables at the order of Shouyue, the owner of the Zhai."
Lan Ruo raised her head and glanced at Cai Cai, who was standing on Lin Xiaodong's shoulder.
"You vicious woman! I'll kill you!"
Cai Cai was furious and opened her mouth to spit fire! "What are you doing?
Stop making trouble!"
Lin Xiaodong flicked his hand and threw away the flames sprayed by Lai Lai.
Lan Ruo lowered her head, shed two tears, and said, "Master Lin, Senior Bai, I'm sorry for betraying the trust of both of you."
Bai Yuquan shook his head and sighed lightly.
Lin Xiaodong was confused and looked up at the sky: "Wan Fangzhai and I have no grudges. Why do they want to go against me and kill me?"
