After landing on the ground, Yu Xiaoxiao found herself in a stone chamber. There was nothing in the stone chamber, but there were bloodstains on the walls and the ground, and many rings were welded on the walls. Yu Xiaoxiao had also visited the Dali Temple's prison, and felt that this should be a torture chamber, and the rings welded on the wall were used to lock people up.
The roar came into Yu Xiaoxiao's ears through the stone wall.
Yu Xiaoxiao walked to the stone wall on the east side of the stone chamber. The stone wall was leaking water badly. It was not only damp but also covered with moss. There was a large pool of brown blood on the ground near the stone wall.
"Who's that person over there?" Yu Xiaoxiao knocked on the stone wall and asked loudly.
The monsters seen in the Huguo Temple were silent unless they fought back. Now the monsters on the other side of the stone wall were screaming so ferociously. Yu Xiaoxiao was sure that there must be someone over there fighting a bloody battle with the monsters.
"roar--"
Apart from the roars of the monsters, no human voice came from the other side of the stone wall.
Yu Xiaoxiao walked to the opening of the stone chamber and looked outside. A long and narrow corridor meandered towards the southeast. Yu Xiaoxiao stood at the door of the stone chamber and could not see where the end of the corridor was.
On the stone walls on both sides of the walkway, there was a pair of oil lamps hung neatly in a row every meter. The oil lamps were all lit at this moment, not to say that the walkway was as bright as day, but it was enough for people walking along to see clearly what was under their feet.
"The monk must have gone up from here," Yu Xiaoxiao said to herself.
If it were a normal human, he would definitely go down this passage, but Yu Xiaoxiao was definitely not a normal human to this world. After muttering to herself, Yu Xiaoxiao returned to the stone chamber and continued to study the stone wall on the east side. It was only separated by a wall, why did she take a long detour?
Standing in front of the stone wall, Yu Xiaoxiao pulled a handful of moss on the stone wall. In addition to the roars of the monsters, Yu Xiaoxiao also heard the sound of water. Touching the top of his head hit by the water drops, Yu Xiaoxiao gritted his teeth, took two steps back, and punched the stone wall.
The cracks spread from Yu Xiaoxiao's hand to all directions of the stone wall.
The copper bell in her hand was a bit of a hindrance at this time, so Yu Xiaoxiao let the stone wall in front of her crack, lowered her head and put the copper bell into her belt. In her belt was also the string of wind chimes that Gu Xinglang had given her. Touching the wind chimes, Yu Xiaoxiao decided that after she returned, she would string the small copper bell onto the string of wind chimes.
Just as Yu Xiaoxiao lowered her head, she saw cracks all over the stone wall, with water seeping out of the cracks. As the water flowing out of the cracks became larger and faster, most of the stone wall collapsed under the impact of the water.
The water from the underground river rushed over her head, soaking Yu Xiaoxiao thoroughly, and the water level in the stone chamber was rising rapidly.
Yu Xiaoxiao wiped her face and saw another stone wall behind it. Between the two stone walls flowed a dark river with fast-flowing water. Facing the power of nature, Yu Xiaoxiao never dared to be careless. She jumped to the second stone wall and punched with all her strength.
In the low stone chamber, countless monsters fell to the ground, and Gu Xinglang fainted beside Xiao Wei.
After the sound of the copper bell disappeared, the nematodes began to crawl towards Gu Xinglang and Xiao Wei again.
The bell rang again from the depths of the stone chamber. This time the monsters no longer needed it to calm their emotions, and the worms' wriggling slowed down.
After the stone wall collapsed in front of Yu Xiaoxiao, the water from the underground river instantly rushed into the low-lying stone chamber.
Yu Xiaoxiao jumped into the stone chamber. The first person she saw was Jiang Zhuojun who was unconscious in an iron cage. When she was about to jump onto the iron cage to save Jiang Zhuojun, as if with telepathy, Yu Xiaoxiao looked down at the ground again. Among the monster corpses and worms all over the ground, Yu Xiaoxiao saw Gu Xinglang and Xiao Wei.
After carrying Gu Xinglang and Xiao Wei to an iron cage, Yu Xiaoxiao checked their faces and hands, which were exposed to the elements. There was no sign of worms crawling on the skin under their hands, which made Yu Xiaoxiao's tense nerves relax. If she hadn't acted quickly enough, these two people would have been infested with nematodes today!
The water level rose rapidly, the monsters sank to the bottom of the water, but the worms floated on the surface.
The insects living in the blood will naturally not be drowned by water. Seeing these insects getting closer and closer to them as the water level rises, Yu Xiaoxiao struck out a bolt of lightning, and the lightning hit the water, making a "crackling" sound and sparks flying.
The nematodes floating on the water surface turned into ashes in a flash.
Yu Xiaoxiao took a look at the monsters sinking to the bottom of the water. With her eyesight, she could tell that they were all dead. She didn't have time to think about who killed them. Thinking that there might be nematodes in the bodies of the monsters, Yu Xiaoxiao struck the bottom of the water with a bolt of lightning. The high temperature made the water in the stone chamber boil, and the bodies of the monsters, like the nematodes, turned into ashes in a blink of an eye.
After dealing with the most important things, Yu Xiaoxiao swung the first lightning and struck deep into the stone chamber. Being able to withstand the attack of sound waves does not mean that Yu Xiaoxiao is willing to bear it.
The large bell, which was mounted on a wooden frame and would shake and make sounds at regular intervals, was struck by lightning and shattered into countless pieces. The pieces fell into the water and did not even create a big splash.
After resolving the bell, Yu Xiaoxiao hugged Gu Xinglang and called out, "Xiao Gu?"
Gu Xinglang's breathing was steady, but his eyes were closed and he was unconscious.
With water poured on his face, Xiao Wei woke up from his coma, "Princess?" When he saw that the person in front of him was Yu Xiaoxiao, Xiao Wei was shocked.
Yu Xiaoxiao's hand was still covering Xiao Wei's face, and she looked at him with concern, "How are you? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
Xiao Wei's Qi circulated in his body for a cycle, then he shook his head at Yu Xiaoxiao and said, "Princess, I'm not hurt."
"Do you feel any bugs crawling somewhere?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked again.
The scene he saw after entering the stone chamber appeared in Xiao Wei's mind, and his face immediately changed.
"Feel it," Yu Xiaoxiao pulled Xiao Wei's hand and said in a deep voice, "Don't panic."
Xiao Wei concentrated for a moment, then shook his head.
"Then it's okay," Yu Xiaoxiao let go of Xiao Wei's hand and said, "The worms are wriggling in the blood vessels under the skin. You can't help but feel it."
Xiao Wei's face was still pale. Gu Xinglang, who was covered in blood, frightened him again. "Prince Consort, what happened to Prince Consort?" Xiao Wei asked Yu Xiaoxiao while reaching out his hand under Gu Xinglang's nose. He wanted to confirm whether Gu Xinglang was alive or dead.
"He has no injuries," Yu Xiaoxiao said to Xiao Wei, "This is the blood of a monster." There was a smell of Chinese medicine in Gu Xinglang's blood, and Yu Xiaoxiao could smell it.
"Monsters?" Xiao Wei looked at the flooded stone chamber. In his memory, he had clearly seen monsters standing in the room, but now none of them were there.
"Did you meet anyone?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked Xiao Wei at this time.
