The moment Zhou Shi's fingers touched the fire fold, the space was reversed again, and he fell heavily on the "rock wall" that was just above his head.
But this time it was a soft landing. The wall that was as hard as stone suddenly became soft, holding Zhou Shi firmly without any injuries.
"If this is inside the body of Lady Xu, it should be more accurately called the 'stomach wall'..."
He struggled to crawl out from the monster's stumps and slime, holding the fire folding piece firmly in his hand.
"The exit of the cave is... above? Lady Xu's body actually stood upright? I don't know what happened outside. But... how do you get up there!"
He tried it and found that the stomach wall surrounding the entire space had become soft, and there was not even a gap that could be used to climb!
"Fishing with gold wire!"
With the secret treasure that had turned into a golden ring in his hand, he swung the fishing hook over his head, and with just a pull, the golden wire fished his body and flew towards the exit of the cave.
The exit was just around the corner, but a howl came from the depths of the cave, repeatedly surging on the surrounding stomach walls, turning into deafening sound waves.
"Uh——"
Suddenly, the walls all around pressed against him, trapping him firmly!
"What's going on!"
He immediately withdrew the golden wire fishing line and used his limbs to protect his torso, holding on to prevent himself from being crushed.
At this time, a feeling of weightlessness appeared, and Lady Xu was falling at an extremely fast speed!
A huge impact came, and all the bones in Zhou Shi's body were shaking. Without the soft flesh walls around him as a buffer, he would have been shattered to pieces.
"It's stopped again. Has it sunk to the bottom? What are Fu Yujiang and the others doing outside?"
"Guluululu..."
The sound coming from the depths of the cave was like a city gate trumpet, but this time it came from under his feet, and it felt inexplicably familiar.
Reminiscent of the hiccups before vomiting.
"Uh, this seems to be..."
The squeezing of the flesh wall suddenly changed direction, "launching" him into the air with all its strength!
"Ah..."
Before the scream that was suppressed in his throat could be heard, Zhou Shi was already in the cold river water!
The momentum of the water flow replaced the pressure of the flesh wall and continued to pull his body. He only had enough strength to take out the Mermaid Tears and stuff it into his mouth before he suffocated.
"Why didn't you throw beans and ask Ji Bu before leaving today...Forget it, I knew it was a big disaster without asking."
The power of the torrent was so astonishing that even with the shark's tears on his body, he could not resist it and could only let the water wash away him.
"One hundred eleven, one hundred and twelve..."
When he read the one hundred and fifty seconds, the impact of the current weakened to the point where he could break free. He immediately kicked off and rushed to the shore.
"Huh, ha..."
The fresh air he hadn't seen for a long time was poured into his body, but he had no time to enjoy it. He didn't even have the strength to stand up.
He struggled to turn over and observed his surroundings.
This is a shallow shoal. Considering the momentum of the water flow and the time it was trapped, it should be about three miles upstream of the battlefield.
The battle is far from over, as the violent overturning of Empress Fang Xu’s body is evidence... Perhaps at this time, Ruan Hunxiong and others are in a bitter battle and are waiting for his support!
"But...I can't even stand firmly, so how can I support you..."
He sat on the shoal for a while, regained some strength, and tried to test his internal strength and look at his breath to confirm his physical condition. It seemed that there was nothing serious.
But while testing the art of looking at qi, a strange yin energy attracted his attention.
"Huh? This place is far away from the battlefield. How come there is such obvious Yin Qi? It comes from..."
He looked in the direction of the Yin Qi. Under the moonlight, a cave entrance appeared on the mountain at the end of the shoal.
"Why is it a cave again!" He secretly cried out after escaping from Lady Xu's body. If he could, he would never want to get into that narrow and cramped space in his life.
The terrifying monster that suddenly appears, the dense egg mountain, the flesh wall that will flatten you at some point, and the mysterious female ghost that suddenly appears...
Thinking of this, he swallowed. The "female ghost" at that time indeed guided him to find Huozhezi and escaped from Xu Niangniang's stomach in time. But how could there be someone in Xu Niangniang's body?
It looks more realistic than the ghost, and not as scary as the ghost, so what is it... thinking this way, he doesn't want to enter the cave in front of him anymore.
However, this yin energy is indeed suspicious, and it may have something to do with Empress Xu...
After doing a good job of psychological preparation, Zhou Shi picked up a few pebbles from the shoal and asked Jiji by throwing beans.
"This cave is related to Xu Niangniang."
The result is "auspicious".
Sure enough!
"There is danger in entering this cave."
The result is "fierce".
Oops...
He sighed and strode towards the entrance of the cave.
The cave was much wider than Xu's intestines, which relieved Zhou Shi's inner discomfort to a certain extent. He held up the fire folder, letting the Yin fire burn through the Yin energy in the cave, and letting the blue fire light guide him forward.<
/p>
As he walked, he discovered something unusual.
"If this is the exit connecting the underground cave to the ground, the trend inside is clearly upward... Rainwater flowing down from the surface of the mountain will not be able to break out of such a cave..."
The ground ahead was getting steeper and steeper, and he even needed to climb forward. The geographical knowledge he had mastered in his previous life allowed him to make a judgment that the cave parallel to the mountain slope could not be naturally formed!
But judging from the size of the cave, it cannot be dug by humans!
"Huh? This is..."
When the firelight swept across the rock wall beside him, some marks on it caught his attention.
"Mural? Is it a woman?"
On the rock wall that has obviously been artificially smoothed, some rough carvings depict this picture:
A man with long hair sits cross-legged on the ground, his eyes closed.
"It looks like he is practicing..."
Going further, Zhou Shi found that the murals were still going on, and there were artificial steps under his feet!
A group of people stood in front of the mountain, pointing to a "circle" on the mountain.
"Is this the entrance to the cave? Did these people discover this cave?"
These people entered the cave and knelt in front of the long-haired woman with their hands raised and something in their hands.
"They offered tributes to women..."
The woman stood on the wavy line symbolizing the river, raising her hands high, while many people stood nearby and raised their arms and shouted.
"Women cast spells and command the rivers so that people can survive..."
The next mural is far apart and has a sudden change in style. It is obviously a work from a different period.
This mural that was added later made the hairs on Zhou Shi’s body stand up——
The woman raised her hands above her head and tore apart a struggling man, then opened her mouth and drank his blood!
"This..."
The next mural follows: a woman drives the river water and chases people. The people look frightened and run away desperately.
"Women have gone from being gods who bring good weather to both sides of the river, to evil spirits who bring disaster to one side..."
After walking a few steps further, this mural is further apart, the lines are more regular, and the picture is more realistic. It may have been created not long ago:
A man thrust a sword into a woman's chest.
Then comes the last mural:
The crowd gathered around the man holding the sword and raised their arms and shouted. The injured woman was pinned down by a stone and submerged by the river...
After reading this group of murals that spanned many generations and spanned many eras, Zhou Shi understood its meaning.
This is a set of murals recording the fall of Lady Xu into an evil god!
And this cave is where Xu Niangniang first practiced!
