The snakes made a rustling sound, maybe they were hesitating and thinking.
Finally, thinking about the fact that the girl had shouted slogans at them in anger and that the goddess had done nothing to her, the snakes finally felt a little convinced by her and no longer surrounded Chen Shen.
Sang Qi silently pinched the fire in Chen Shen's hand, with a face full of hatred: "You put the fire in the innermost part of the cave because you thought it took too long to get it?"
Chen Shen was holding the jar of Gu insects, looking a little haggard: "I just... want to break out of the encirclement..."
Sang Qi stuffed the fire into his pocket, pulled Chen Shen's neck and walked inside, acting like a good brother.
Chen Shen was half a head taller than her. At this time, the young man bent his waist slightly and followed a little aggrievedly, showing no sign of resistance at all.
Sang Qi lowered his voice: "The road is blocked, let's find a way to deal with that goddess first, otherwise none of us will be able to get out."
"Aren't you a believer of the goddess?" Chen Shen was a little confused.
"Oh. I made it up." Sang Qi admitted quickly.
Chen Shen was speechless for a moment.
The little black snake has been wrapped around Sang Qi's waist since the goddess appeared. It looks like it has been drained. Upon closer inspection, it seems that the black skin has become shiny.
Sang Qi touched the little black snake's head in a soothing manner, and the two of them returned to the original location of the goddess.
The ice coffin has been broken, and the goddess stands barefoot on a high place with a cold expression.
She was naked, but her long hair covered almost all the skin on her body, and even seemed to drag the floor.
"Did you release me?" the goddess' voice was indifferent.
Sang Qi replied: "Yes, Lord Goddess."
The goddess seemed to be thinking about something. After a while, she turned her head to look at Sang Qi. Her eyes traveled across her face, all the way down, and finally stopped at the little black snake circling around her waist.
The goddess narrowed her eyes slightly.
"You said you are the current priest?"
Her tone was a little cold, and Sang Qi paused in his heart, secretly thinking that the secret might have been exposed.
But it didn't show on her face. The girl lowered her head and said, "Yes."
"It's strange, your Gu has the same aura as the village, but you don't have it." The goddess spoke slowly, looking at Sang Qi with scrutiny in her eyes.
Sang Qi opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, the goddess looked at Chen Shen standing aside.
"Stranger?" she asked.
Chen Shen nodded: "Yes, yes."
Although he was afraid, he had a good psychological quality at least. Before coming to the Snake Cave, he had already prepared himself to encounter some incredible things. Meeting an important NPC was already a little gain, and now he had to contact this goddess who was probably the boss of the dungeon.
Chen Shen's scalp felt a little numb, and he felt that this goddess was not as holy and beautiful as he imagined.
The goddess looked at the jar held in Chen Shen's arms with great interest. The always arrogant Gu insect was lying docilely on the jar, not even daring to move. Its head had been fed with blood until it turned bright red.
"After such a long time, the methods of these old guys have really remained the same and there is nothing new." The goddess sneered and did not explain, as if she did not intend to learn anything from the two of them.
She gently stroked the ice coffin and whispered: "As a thank you for releasing me, you can each ask me a question."
Sang Qi said cautiously: "Are there any additional conditions?"
The goddess laughed out loud: "Different questions have different prices, so answering questions generally is fine. If you reveal the secret, you may even pay for your soul."
