At the first moment, Bediwell was almost certain that there was nothing on the rock wall. It was just a natural, grey-brown, rough and cracked sedimentary rock cliff. But at the next moment, when Sherichard put the cliff on
The hidden mechanism was activated, allowing a ray of light like sunlight to slowly seep out from the cracks in the cliff. Only then did the werewolf young man sigh that the mechanism was so cleverly hidden.
It is indeed too early to marvel now. The wonderful rock wall began to slowly open, or the crack was getting bigger and bigger, and the light like warm sunlight seeping out from it became more and more dazzling, making the werewolf youth unconsciously
He narrowed his eyes.
The Snow Lion pressed back and forth on some buttons perfectly disguised as stones on the rock wall, seeming to trigger the mechanism according to a certain combination of passwords. And as she continued to press the mechanism correctly, the light on the rock wall became more and more intense.
Bright, or in other words, the cracks opened in the rock wall are getting bigger and bigger, and finally they are big enough to become an entrance that can be passed through.
The entrance to the cave opened. An underground canyon leading deeper into the canyon, a passage leading to the secret realm where Master Sunbird lived, was revealed before the eyes of the werewolf young man.
The sun-like light seemed to come from another world, coming from the other side of the ancient rocky narrow passage. Even though the rock itself did not have strong reflective capabilities like a mirror, the light was still dazzling.
If you pass through this gravel-colored ancient road that seems to be man-made and reach the other end of the passage, you will probably have entered a "different world", a secret realm that is completely different from the current Salan Canyon at night and is as bright as day.
There must be a "sun" in that secret realm.
A series of questions emerged from Bedivere's mind.
Is there really a sun in this dark night? If not, what about the light coming from the end of the remote rocky narrow path, which is as real as the sun's light?
But is this incredible sunlight really sunlight? Why is it flashing alternately between light and dark? Although it is difficult to see clearly the alternating light and dark with the naked eye, Bediwell can still vaguely feel the "breathing" of this light.
Phenomenon. Real sunlight is probably much more stable than this. It can't be so erratic, right?
"Is that...?" the werewolf young man asked in a low voice.
"Well, it's exactly as you guessed, that's the light emitted by Lord Sunbird."
"But how is that possible? Does it light up the entire valley? In such a dark night??"
"Why should you be surprised? Come along, you will understand everything after seeing Mr. Sunbird with your own eyes." The Snow Lion girl said calmly and walked into the secret passage.
It was dry, warm, and blew by a gentle breeze. This was the first thing he felt when the werewolf young man followed the snow lion girl Sherrichard and walked into the artificial secret passage that was about twenty yards long.
That warm feeling blew in from the depths of the tunnel. It was a mysterious place. There must be a strange scene at the other end of the tunnel that Bedivere had never seen in his life.
His guess was not wrong, the scene at the other end of the passage was indeed strange and rare. It was already deep in the Shalan Canyon, and the werewolf youth had not even imagined that there would be a deeper valley here, but it was like proving that Bedi
Weir's knowledge was short-sighted and special. Just by turning around from the end of the passage, the werewolf young man saw a vast canyon that seemed to extend endlessly towards the end of the sky.
Sky? No. No. Where does the sky come from under this earth? The sky that looks a bit fishy white from a distance is actually part of the dome of this underground canyon. It is just that it is shining, and it is a very natural and uniform light, so
Bedivere looked around, and the entire dome looked like the real sky. Sherrichard had said before that the Sunbird would illuminate this underground canyon, but Bedivere didn't seem to be completely like that.
The zenith of the underground canyon originally contained some kind of fungus that could self-illuminate or absorb light and release it slowly, which is why the entire area was illuminated so evenly and brightly.
The secret underground canyon is different from the wind-blown Salan Canyon outside. The humidity here is not high, but it is still more humid and comfortable than the extremely dry Salan Canyon. It probably gets moisture from some kind of underground water veins, and then
Released through the transpiration of the rich vegetation here, even in such a dry underground canyon, the air barely contains a moderate amount of water vapor.
There was a sparse forest not far away, but it still blocked the line of sight, preventing the werewolf youth from seeing a looming canyon-like terrain in the distance. And there happened to be the most light coming from that side of the canyon.
Deville believed that their destination was the canyon behind the forest.
"I didn't need to mention it more, but for safety reasons it's better to tell me." Sherrichard said: "This [Sun Canyon] is one of Egypt's nature reserves. It is the best hidden and protected place in the entire country.
The most heavily protected area. There are more than 3,000 species of endangered animals and plants here. If you accidentally damage the endangered species here, it is a serious crime."
"You have to say this now..." Bedivere started to feel frightened, fearing that if he took a step forward, he would accidentally trample to death a small insect on the verge of extinction.
However, contrary to expectations, some kind of black bug happened to crawl under the feet of the werewolf youth, and Bedivere failed to notice it.
"Be careful!" Sherrichard grabbed Bedivere with one hand and stopped him from moving forward. Bedivere fell towards the Snow Lion Girl, for fear of guessing the bug on the ground. He couldn't balance in the panic.
Of course, Bediwell's hands subconsciously stretched out to touch around, hugging whatever he touched. As a result, he wrapped his arms around the waist of the Snow Lion girl.
...and took advantage of the situation!
"Uh!" Bedivere exclaimed: "Sorry! I didn't mean it!"
"I know you didn't mean it. But now, can you let go of your hand?" Sherrichard was particularly calm and politely pushed the werewolf youth away.
"Ah ha ha ha..." Bedivere's hand retracted as if he was electrocuted. It can be said that he was very embarrassed. He blushed and laughed while stepping back: "The one I almost stepped on just now is
What?"
"Moon bug, a special bug that looks very similar to a scarab, but produces gem-like crystals in its body." Sherrichard said without emotion.
"Sure enough, if you accidentally step on it, you will be sentenced, right?" the werewolf young man asked tremblingly. Should it be ten years in prison, life imprisonment, or the death penalty?
"No." Sherrichard's answer surprised him.
"Uh, what?" The werewolf young man was confused.
"The body of the moon bug is a very hard gem, which is commonly known as [moon stone]. And its outer shell is also very hard. The hardness from the inside to the outside makes this little bug almost indestructible. I don't think
You can crush it to death if you step on it." Sherichard said.
"Huh? So, why did you hold me back just now?"
"The small thorns on the surface of the moon bug are highly poisonous. If you step on it, it will not be trampled to death. Instead, your foot will be pricked." Sherry Chad subconsciously teased her.
With hair as flowing as the wind, "If you are really injured, although you won't really be poisoned to death, your feet will probably be swollen for several months."
The werewolf young man swallowed his saliva.
Sherrichard added (sternly): "This is a beautiful nature reserve, but it is also full of dangers. Don't underestimate nature, Mr. Bedivere."
Then the werewolf young man suddenly laughed.
"...Why are you laughing?" Sherrichard frowned slightly.
"I have a feeling that you often use this tone to teach your brother Leoport a lesson." Bedivere held back his laughter and said, "When I think of that child being taught a lesson by you, I...
"
"Be serious." Sherichard rolled his eyes at Bedivere: "But you may be right. I often teach Leo this way. That child always... lacks self-discipline."
"Is he much different from Prince Said when he was a child?" the werewolf young man asked carelessly.
"Well. It's much worse. Prince Said is a descendant of the human royal family. He has been a well-educated and well-educated person from the beginning. He is so well-behaved, better than most children." Sherrich smiled bitterly.
Said: "And Leo is a completely opposite example. He witnessed the destruction of the Kingdom of Solis before he could understand, and he experienced too many unpleasant things while living abroad. His character is unruly, except for certain people.
, no one will believe it. The Leoport you see now has experienced so many years of abuse and has slowly recovered. When I first met him, the child didn't even want to call me sister.
He was even more rude to Daddy Sphinx."
"oh......"
"Anyway, I hope that kid won't cause too much trouble on your ship."
"If you are worried, don't let him get on the ship from the beginning?" The werewolf youth also smiled bitterly: "That child should be considered the last descendant of the royal family, right? Maybe he is the last royal family member in the entire Kingdom of Solis? Then isn't he?
, um, do you have the responsibility to carry on the family lineage for the royal family? He hasn't fulfilled his responsibilities yet, so you let him, um, date with Elaine? Is this really good? It's impossible for Elaine to give him a child?"
"That's alright." The Snow Lion girl said calmly, "Actually, we have combined Leo with countless carefully selected female volunteers before. Unfortunately, there was no result at all. Well, I'm sorry for suddenly mentioning such a thing.
, will it make you unhappy?"
"No, it won't..." Bedivere muttered. Although he was not unhappy, he couldn't help but picture the lion boy hugging a group of beautiful ladies there for fun. It was so exciting.
.
Sherrichard asked nervously: "Are you really not unhappy? Please tell the truth. This is already Lord Sunbird's sanctuary. If you lie in the sanctuary, if Lord Sunbird accidentally hears it, the consequences will be serious.
of."
"No. I really don't feel unhappy." Bedivere clarified: "I have a wife and children after all. This kind of topic is nothing to me. It's just..."
"only?"
"I didn't expect Miss Sherrichard to talk about this kind of topic so naturally." Bedivere said a little uncomfortably. (To be continued)
