Although Yu Xiaoxiao swore solemnly and guaranteed with her character that she would never leave anyone crippled or killed, except Ergouzi who believed in her unconditionally and was willing to let her do so, the boss and others were determined not to do so.
Yu Xiaoxiao was very dissatisfied with the courage of these former pirates and said, "How could you do this? My Xiao Gu has nothing to say!"
The boss really wants to spit blood on this guy's face. If you have the guts, throw your husband first!
The second in command said something serious at this time: "Princess, if you keep talking like this, won't the people from the Eternal Life Temple run even further away?"
Yu Xiaoxiao glared at the big boss and said angrily: "If he runs away, it's your fault!"
The boss wiped his face. Where could he go to seek justice?
Because the boss and his gang were "cowardly", Yu Xiaoxiao ran back and forth between the two cliffs more than ten times before she finally got everyone to the opposite cliff.
While the boss was waiting for Yu Xiaoxiao to bring people over, he picked up a few more stones and threw them to the bottom of the cliff. As a result, two stones hit the bulge on the cliff and were smashed directly. Imagine what would happen if you fell down or hit the bulge on the cliff. The boss was safe now, but he still felt a chill on the back of his neck.
Yu Xiaoxiao stood in front of the cliff, holding her breath and listening attentively to the noise at the bottom of the cliff for a long time. Finally, she shook her head at Gu Xinglang and said, "There is no one, and there are no fish in the water."
The second in command then said, "I didn't see any insects in this cave. Is there no living thing in this cave?"
Everyone looked around after being told to do so. There was no light in the cave, only the torches in their hands illuminated a small area of the cave. There were water-soaked stone walls everywhere, standing there in strange shapes. When illuminated by the light of the torches, they cast a grotesque black shadow with bared fangs and claws on the ground.
Yu Xiaoxiao reached out and grabbed a handful of the big rock beside her, and pulled out a multi-legged insect that was hiding in the cracks of the rock. She said, "There are insects, but they won't actively come near us humans."
The eldest boss said, "Why does this bug have so many legs?"
Yu Xiaoxiao held the centipede in front of her eyes and said, "It's not poisonous. You can eat it."
The former pirates...even if this insect is edible, they won't eat it.
Yu Xiaoxiao looked at the former pirates and shook her head. If they went to the apocalypse, they would either starve to death or be eaten by zombies. "That's why I asked Brother Su to train you," Yu Xiaoxiao said to the big bosses, "I want to train you because I'm afraid you won't survive."
The bosses were still speechless, they believed that what the princess said was true!
Gu Xinglang then withdrew his gaze from the cliff and said to Yu Xiao: "Let's go."
Yu Xiaoxiao put the millipede in her hand back into the crevice of the rock. As soon as the millipede was free, it quickly crawled away.
The big boss asked Yu Xiaoxiao again with a rude look: "Princess, didn't you say that this bug is edible?"
Yu Xiaoxiao looked at the boss like an idiot and said, "I have rabbits and pheasants here, why would I eat insects?"
The boss was choked by Yu Xiaoxiao.
"Let's go," Yu Xiaoxiao walked forward.
The group walked forward for nearly a hundred meters, and a corpse with its back leaning against the stone wall appeared before their eyes.
When the eldest boss saw the body, he hurried over, holding a torch and standing beside the body to illuminate it. He said to Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang, "It's an old man, he looks to be over 60 years old."
The second in command stepped forward and took off the hat on the corpse's head.
One of the former pirates shouted, "It's a monk."
Yu Xiaoxiao squatted down and pulled the corpse's clothes.
The first and second in command both gasped, and the skin on the man's chest was charred black.
"Burns?" Gu Xinglang asked.
Yu Xiaoxiao nodded and lifted up the monk's hands to take a look. The skin on his hands was more severely burned, and the middle finger and index finger on his left hand were even burned to carbonization. "This must be one of the people who put water in the tunnel." Yu Xiaoxiao let go of the old monk's hand, turned to Gu Xinglang and said, "My flame palm can dry up the water, but it can also burn him." It was obvious that the monk's injuries were caused by the air waves formed by the high temperature.
The eldest master said, "Princess, let me tell you something. Wasn't that the Flame Palm you used in the basement?"
Yu Xiao: "Really? Then let's call it the Fiery Palm." Anyway, it's something that doesn't exist, so it doesn't matter what name it is called, right?
The eldest master said, "Princess, you don't even remember it?"
Yu Xiaoxiao blinked and said, "Why should I remember this?"
The former pirates were speechless again. Which martial artist would not remember the moves he used?
Gu Xinglang also half squatted down. He didn't care whether his wife used the Fire Palm or the Fiery Palm. Young Master Gu looked at the clothes the old monk was wearing. Unlike those killers in tight clothes, the outer shirt the old monk wore looked ordinary, but the inner shirt was made of silk, and was embroidered with the Buddhist swastika pattern with gold and silver threads.
Yu Xiaoxiao said, "Damn!" and asked, "Is his clothes very valuable?"
The eldest boss said, "It's already this time, why are you worrying about the money? This monk must be a big shot in the Eternal Life Temple."
Yu Xiaoxiao scolded the boss: "He was an important person, but he is dead now."
"Okay," Gu Xinglang stroked his forehead.
After Gu Xinglang's words, the boss didn't dare to say anything.
"Take the head back," Gu Xinglang stood up and whispered to the second in command.
The second in command did not say a word. He drew his knife and cut off the old monk's head. He then took off the old monk's outer robe, wrapped the head in the robe, and carried it on his back.
Under Yu Xiaoxiao's glare, the boss reached out, stripped off the old monk's underwear, and put it in his pocket.
Yu Xiaoxiao was satisfied now and said, "Let's go on."
A former pirate asked Yu Xiaoxiao: "Princess, how long do we have to go?"
Yu Xiaoxiao shook her head and said, "I don't know."
The group continued to move forward. The road was still difficult to walk on, and there were stalactites hanging directly from the top of the cave to the ground, making everyone feel like they were walking in a stone forest.
Yu Xiaoxiao raised her hand. There was no wind coming from in front of her, which made Her Royal Highness the Princess frown. No wind meant there was no exit in front. Could it be that there was a second way here?
Just as Yu Xiaoxiao was wondering, a three-way intersection appeared in front of everyone.
The eldest boss was worried and asked, "Are we going to go separately?"
Yu Xiaoxiao stood at each intersection and felt that there was no exit ahead of these three intersections. Yu Xiaoxiao turned around and shook her head at Gu Xinglang.
Gu Xinglang walked forward, looked at the ground, and then at the ceiling of the cave.
The second in command said, "There are no footprints on the ground. Damn it, we didn't find any footprints along the way."
At this moment, Gu Xinglang felt as if something had stabbed his brain. He frowned and looked towards the intersection on his left.
Yu Xiao: "What's wrong?"
Gu Xinglang pinched his brows, pointed to the intersection on the left side of the crowd, and said, "I think we should go this way."
