Chapter 620 Killing the Fish Monster! Blood
As Li Qingluo was about to leave, Zheng Mama and Qin Ling were so frightened that they jumped up.
Granny Zheng rushed forward and hugged Li Qinglu tightly, saying, "Miss, you absolutely mustn't!"
"Leaving aside whether the water is clean or not, your body can't take it anymore!"
"Young lady, you must think this over carefully and never act impulsively again."
"Kill One! Chasing Rain, hurry! You mustn't let the young lady put herself in danger again!"
"Young lady, she really can't do anything dangerous again, otherwise it will be a terrible thing that we'll regret and there will be no way to save her!"
Li Qingluo: "But I care about their lives too."
Sha Yi: "Miss, let me go!"
She clenched her fists, and could only look at Sha Yi and the others.
Sha Yi nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, young lady, I'll go and see what's going on right away."
Li Qingluo: "Come back alive!"
"You absolutely must come back alive, do you hear me?"
She can't afford to lose anyone else.
absolute!
Li Qingluo was so nervous that she was sweating profusely.
She hadn't felt this way in a long time.
If the Killers really lost their lives because of this, she didn't even know how to face herself.
Seeing Li Qingluo's anxious and uneasy appearance, Sha San came over and said, "Miss, no matter what happens, we Sha Zi will have no regrets."
"We are ready to die for you at any time."
"Please trust your subordinates. Even if anything unexpected happens, your subordinates will be willing to do it and will have absolutely no complaints."
"The girl has made us her people for more than two years, and we are already very content."
Sparrow's eyes reddened, and she turned away, not daring to speak.
Li Qingluo, her eyes also red, said, "Listen! I don't care what you think, but since I am your master, I want each and every one of you to live a long and healthy life, and die peacefully in your old age!"
"From now on, you will have to protect my child for me."
"You also want to travel the world with me."
"You must serve me for the rest of your life, and no one is allowed to be absent!"
Did you hear me?
Sha San smiled and said, "Okay."
"Don't worry, it's not necessarily because something happened to them."
As soon as he finished speaking, Kill Thirteen emerged from the bottom of the pool.
He was panting heavily when Zhuiyu and Xuancang quickly pulled him ashore. He collapsed on the ground and, without even catching his breath, reported, "Miss, we killed the fish monster together."
"I came here specifically to report this, fearing that you might worry."
"Girl, it's alright. Apart from a few people who suffered minor injuries, everyone is still alive."
As he spoke, Sha Shisan grinned.
Li Qingluo finally smiled.
"Well done!"
She punched Sha Shisan on the shoulder, and she, Sha San, and Zhui Yu all exchanged a smile.
As a result, Li Qingluo and the others successfully climbed out of the tunnel by pulling themselves up with ropes.
Nanping's hands were worn raw and bleeding.
To Li Qingluo's surprise, this girl who always cried didn't cry when she saw her bloodied hands.
Qin Ling quickly applied the medicine to her.
Her eyes were red from the pain, but she didn't shed a single tear.
Li Qingluo felt sorry for her instead: "You've grown up."
Growing up always comes at a price.
Abandon naivety, discard unrealistic ideas, and face reality.
Nanping smiled bitterly: "This is all the stubbornness I have left."
After returning by the same route, when they passed the iron chain, Li Qingluo fed Nanping an antidote pill.
Nanping was still puzzled: "There really wasn't any more hallucinations?"
"But Sister Luo'er, what's going on with this place? Why are we hallucinating?"
Li Qingluo looked up at the mist: "This is probably caused by these things. Do you see those vines growing on the stalactites?"
“I hardly saw them at first either, but they are the strangest things in this cave.”
“Apart from the secret realm where you and Cui Qilang fell, there are no other plants in this entire cave.”
“It’s very cold in this cave, and there’s no soil, so most plants can’t survive.”
"That's why their existence is even stranger."
"Strange vines, strange mist."
"If it is indeed the fog they produce, which causes hallucinations, then it makes sense."
"Because I once read in the Strange Tales of the West that different beings in different worlds depend on and support each other, but they also have mutual restraint."
Nanping looked at Li Qingluo with admiration.
"Sister Luo'er, you are really amazing."
"But we can't let them harm people anymore. Why don't we destroy this place?"
Li Qingluo: "Let's talk about it outside."
As they approached the exit, Nanping touched the cold stone wall and felt very cold: "This place isn't just strange here. Have you noticed that you can't hear any sounds from a little distance away, as if these stones can block out sound?"
Li Qingluo was very pleased: "It's quite impressive that Nanping was able to discover this."
"Come on, we're about to leave. Close your eyes first."
As soon as Nanping stepped out of the cave, he immediately felt a very hot and intense light shining on him.
Fortunately, Li Qingluo had her cover her eyes first; otherwise, her eyes would not have been able to withstand such a sudden exposure to sunlight.
Nanping's eyes were blindfolded. She reached out to grab the person next to her, but unexpectedly, Cui Qilang came right in front of her.
"Your Highness."
Cui Qilang stretched out his arm for her to support him.
Upon hearing the sound, Nanping pushed him away.
"I'm sorry. Sparrow, Sparrow?"
"Sister Luo'er, please lend me your sparrow."
Que'er quickly came over to support Nanping, and then led her to a shady spot to sit down and rest.
She was naturally unaware that Cui Qilang harbored an unconcealable sense of disappointment.
After getting used to it, Nanping removed the cloth covering her eyes and slowly adapted to the natural light.
She stretched out her arms and sighed with a sense of relief.
"We've finally survived, haven't we?"
"What is Sister Luo'er doing?"
Li Qingluo was busy at the cave entrance, seemingly giving instructions.
Nanping got up and went over, hearing Li Qingluo say, "Hide him. When we return from Yingcheng, we'll surely find a way..."
Nanping: "Sister Luo'er, what are you doing?"
Li Qingluo turned to look at Nanping: "I'm preparing to go back to Yingcheng."
Of course, all of this cannot simply be left unresolved.
However, perhaps Bazaar trusted Liu Li's family too much, because after a night, Li Qingluo and his camels were still waiting for them on the back mountain, indicating that no one had ever been there.
Surprisingly, the bazaar did not send any troops to investigate.
Whether he comes or not, his death is imminent.
Before leaving, Li Qingluo returned to the grotto.
The pool water inside had indeed turned blood red.
Cui Qilang said, "There is a hole at the bottom of the pool in the secret realm that can fit one person. If you crawl out through it and swim straight through, you can return to the underground river in the cave."
"So these pools and underground rivers are indeed connected."
Li Qingluo: "Then what about the water monster you encountered?"
Sha Er said, "Miss, we wanted to know what lay ahead in the underground river, so we swam into a larger pool."
"The pool stank horribly, but there was light there, as if it could completely connect to the outside."
"We just wanted to go out and take a look, but we never expected to encounter a fish monster that was completely black, looked like a fish, and had a mouth as big as a living person!"
"That fish monster was taller than a person, and its whiskers were longer than my arm. When it saw our group, it excitedly opened its big mouth and swam over."
"It took us a lot of effort to kill it. Now the blood has spread here. Could it be... that all those corpses we usually throw down were just food for it?"
That fish monster must have quite a big appetite.
But speaking of which, the Shatuo Buddha worshipped by everyone in Eagle City, and even the devout believers who serve and sacrifice living people to feed, is such a monster.
So, could this fish monster be considered Shatuo Buddha?
Along the way, the bottom of the underground river pool was littered with corpses and skeletons.
Everyone looked somewhat disgusted.
The truth that Cui Qilang couldn't say was that he and Nanping had indeed drunk corpse-soaking water for more than ten days.
His face turned pale at the thought of this.
Li Qingluo did not answer Sha Er's question, because Nanping was already on the verge of collapse.
No one had the heart to expose the truth.
Li Qinglu changed the subject: "You said there's an exit that leads to the outside. Where is that exit? Take me to see it."
The exit is actually about ten miles west of the back slope.
Li Qinglu rode his camel for a quarter of an hour before he saw that, following a shallow river, surrounded by yellow sand and weeds, he soon reached a pond no bigger than a small courtyard.
The water in the ponds and even the shallow rivers had turned blood red.
It looked like a red veil draped over this desert rocky beach, both beautiful and eerie.
Li Qinglu took a sniff; the pond was extremely foul-smelling, making one want to vomit immediately upon smelling it.
And there were countless flies and some crawling insects flying on it.
No wonder the people of Yingcheng clearly have no water to drink; they would rather queue all day at the city gate to get clean water than come here to get water.
But the water source here has become so foul and filthy, and that's all thanks to Baza and his gang!
Otherwise, the river water in the cave could have provided ample water for the people of Yingcheng to live a better life, and even ensured their freedom to use water.
Now, the people are forced to become obedient puppets of Bazara.
It seems that the reason why those common people said they had never seen any princess sent for marriage was because they were forced into this situation by a bucket of water.
Li Qingluo didn't hate them for hiding the truth.
However, in Bazaar, Li Qingluo had already figured out how to get revenge on him.
Eagle City, City Lord's Mansion.
Inside the main hall, a majestic and tall man sat on the throne, holding two stunning beauties in his arms. Eight other beauties, bare-chested and barefoot, danced a glamorous song and dance.
Baza drank the wine fed to him by the beautiful woman, but he looked preoccupied.
"Your Majesty, please drink!"
"Yes, sir—"
As soon as he called out "Master," Baza grabbed the beauty by the neck.
"You wretch, what did you call me?"
