Chapter 436: The Hidden Girl



After sitting here for a while, I stared at the black part of my hand that had been affected. The skin looked a little rough and hard, and the blood vessels inside were obviously widened and swollen. Not only did it hurt like a needle prick, but it was also very itchy. It was really a weird symptom.

And the thought that a group of flies would breed and grow in my body, and finally break through my skin and rush out, made me shudder all over. Damn it, can you dare to be more disgusting?

The cold in late autumn and early winter was also merciless. My face was sore from scratching, my ears were red, and my whole body was shaking. Fortunately, Yunwen arrived not long after. Lingshang was a little slower, but she also quickly herded the sheep back to the sheepfold in the city to rest and went upstairs to gather. Yunwen and I sat on the dragon horse Sanfu and flew in the air, while Lingshang used the method of Yinxie Pot to transform Yin into Yang and flew closely behind. She led the way to Zijing Cave, and Sanfu followed closely behind her.

I had never heard of this Bauhinia Cave before, and had never seen it. I just knew that the venom of the Red Demon Spider and Miss Su came from that place. I didn't know what kind of place it was, so I couldn't help but become curious.

Sitting on the back of Sanfu and flying in the sky is both exciting and nervous. You have to know that you are at least three or four hundred meters above the ground, which is higher than an ordinary mountain. At such a height, every time you look down while sitting on the horse's back, you can't help but feel daunted and scared, but you can still vaguely see the scenery below and the direction of God's perspective.

The strange thing is that while flying in the air, after flying for a while, I saw mountains rising up, but it was not an area I was familiar with. I remembered that Ling Shang had just taken us to the west, flying over many towering peaks. We should have seen the City Wall Mountain in this direction, but we didn't see it this time. It seems that I am really not familiar with this area to the west.

If I couldn't take off, I wouldn't be able to go to the west, because there was a towering mountain in between, which was the area where Diaolou Mountain connected to another high mountain, like a barrier that I couldn't get through. But now with Sanfu taking me to fly, I could directly pass through the towering mountain. It turned out that there was another world. There was no need to run from Diaolou Mountain to Chengqiang Mountain. I could only see the new road to the west of Chengqiang Mountain.

After flying over the high mountain, flying diagonally to the west and northwest, there is a mountainous area, one after another, high and low. According to the geographical location, it should be the junction of the edge of the West Island and the East Island. After flying over several mountains, you can see a large area of ​​land that is soaked by the black dirty river water, and the soil is black.

It was near here that Lingshang descended with Sanfu and came to the foot of a mountain. As we walked forward, we could feel that the climate here was very different from ours, just across the mountain. There was steam coming out of the ground. I was wearing a fur-collared jacket and coarse cloth gloves, but after walking a few steps I felt a little breathless and my chest was stuffy.

If it is winter over there, it is simply summer here. Even the sun seems scorching hot. It is really weird. How can there be both winter and summer on the same island?

But from this I can understand why there is a cave called Bauhinia Cave. Bauhinia is a flower that blooms in the tropical southern part of China. The season here is obviously not tropical, so there must be a special reason for the Bauhinia to bloom.

"Is there a crater below here? Why is it so hot?" I said while fanning myself with my hands. I was already sweating all over.

"Have you forgotten? Miss Su is the adopted daughter of the mountain god. If she tells her adoptive father, winter can become summer. The change of the four seasons for her depends entirely on her mood." Ling Shang said.

"Not only that, she is directly changing the seasons, climate, temperature, and humidity, right?" I asked.

"These are just trivial matters to her. She likes Bauhinia, so she will also provide some external conditions that facilitate its growth." Ling Shang said.

"She is such an extraordinary woman." Yunwen couldn't help but sigh.

Because it was too hot, we each took off two layers of clothes and found a way through the mountains. The road was winding and there were endless narrow paths. If Lingshang hadn't known the way, I would have been lost and had a heat stroke. It was almost below zero over there, but here the flowers and plants were in full bloom, and there were even more flowers on the trees. The temperature might have been over 20 or 30 degrees. The difference was quite big.

At this time, I had good hearing and heard a lot of hissing sounds. I immediately drew out the Golden Que Sword. When the wind blew the grass low, I happened to catch a glimpse. I saw a huge spider with six eyes hiding behind the weeds. It was covered with hard hair and was completely black, but there were a few particularly conspicuous red lines between its chest and abdomen. It was as big as a wolfdog, and I trembled all over when I saw it.

"Everyone, don't move. That's the red demon spider. It's guarding against intruders and protecting its master." Ling Shang said.

So the three of us stopped together, and as that one appeared, countless red spiders began to show up all over the mountains and fields, one after another. They had been hiding in the grass just now, and they suddenly appeared. In a blink of an eye, we were surrounded. Now, let alone moving, I was afraid even to breathe.

“Will they attack?” I asked.

"They won't. I just communicated with them using the language of all things. They are just warning us not to get close. They won't attack." Yunwen said.

"Should? I see their chelicerae are moving restlessly, and their bodies are lying on the ground, obviously ready to pounce. Their intention to attack is obvious, and they are very agitated. Our retreat is also densely covered with these red devil spiders, and they look hungry. I'm afraid it won't be as simple as just driving us out." I said.

As the saying goes, when it rains, it pours. When people are unlucky, even drinking water will get stuck in their teeth. This is probably what happened to us.

Although Yunwen was trying her best to communicate, those red devil spiders didn't seem to have a clear intention to leave. They seized the time to narrow the encirclement, and I couldn't help but reach to my waist to draw out the Golden Que Sword.

They were rustling and rustling closer to us, and in a blink of an eye they were only five or six steps away from us. The spider behind us was approaching even faster, but I had good ears and could tell they had bad intentions.

"They refuse to communicate." Yunwen said distressedly.

Ling Shang was also frightened at this moment. She had been here before and had borrowed the venom of the Red Demon Spider. This time might be completely different from what she expected, so she was frightened and looked particularly surprised. What should she do? Is this the end of the road?

At this moment, a bolt of lightning struck from the blue, and the leading red devil spider turned into ashes instantly. All the spiders were shocked. At this time, a figure came over, with strange clothes, and what was even stranger was that it walked particularly stiffly. It was not until it got closer that we saw that it was a scarecrow. It was dressed in coarse cloth and looked like a human.

It couldn't talk, but it took out a golden feather and waved it twice. Immediately, all the spiders retreated and went back the way they came. They didn't dare to delay at all. Soon they disappeared in the grass all over the mountains. Perhaps they were dormant again. The red devil spider that was struck by lightning was already charred all over and died on the ground.

Then the scarecrow waved at us and moved forward. I looked at Lingshang, and she recovered and said, "It's okay. Miss Su's messenger is here, which means she knows we are here to find her. Now, even if there are thousands of traps in the valley, they will not work on us."

I coughed. Damn it, if they didn't know we were coming, could it be that after passing the spider, there would be more deadly things? This witch is really extraordinary.

After passing the spider habitat and entering a bend in the mountain road, we entered a main road. Unexpectedly, it was a neat road paved with stone slabs. There were regular cross fences on both sides of the road, and there were many flower bushes surrounded by the fences, all of which were planted with colorful bauhinia flowers. The fragrance of flowers was fragrant and the scenery was pleasant.

This is simply the doorstep of a hermit somewhere.

After passing this cobblestone road, we had to cross a stone bridge. There was a clear river under the bridge, and the scarecrow led the way in front of us until we came to a courtyard gate. He opened the door for us and then stopped moving. We went into the courtyard and saw a woman sitting on a swing between two trees. Two scarecrows were rocking the swing for her behind her. She was wearing a fluttering skirt that swayed in the wind, like a fairy in the wind.

But when she saw us coming, she turned to look at me. In her hurry to get off the swing, she forgot that she was still swinging in the air. She stumbled and fell to the ground. Yunwen and Lingshang hurried to help her. I also went forward. I don’t know if she was hurt, but she looked at me with particular shyness and embarrassment.
