This question should have been easy to answer, but soon, for some reason, Fan Chong's face became gloomy. Although he tried his best to restrain himself, the twitching on his face became more and more obvious, and his eyes began to roll back. I don't know how to describe him, but this throbbing was obviously very scary, like a heart that would explode at any time.
"These dogs! These dogs actually, actually hid it from me. How dare they hide it from me? I will kill them, eat up their flesh, drink their blood, pull out their tendons, and peel off their skin! They didn't even send me such a good thing as the dragon horse. How dare they! How dare they!" He shouted angrily, so that the entire underground space was filled with his voice.
My ears were buzzing. This guy didn't need to be so loud, did he? Seeing him shaking his head and about to go berserk, I quickly shouted, "Hey, calm down. Do you hear me? I'm ordering you as a Dragon Seeker to calm down and stop shaking your head. Let's talk it over."
However, this man didn't listen to what I said at all. He shouted loudly, and started smashing the ground from a local area. The chain began to tighten, making a rattling sound. Yunwen and I knew that we could no longer stop his crazy trend. In order to avoid being eaten, we both began to retreat quickly. After walking for a while, we reached a hillside. I remember that the two of us were dragged down from there.
So this is the way to return, but we are now facing a problem, that is, we cannot break the heavy stone pressing on us. That huge and heavy stone is to prevent us "food" from escaping, and also to prevent the monster Fan Chong below from going crazy and running out. Since we are guarding against him, they can't even knock him away, let alone us?
Therefore, Yunwen and I pushed the top wall hard, but it was obviously of little effect. Fan Chong below had gone crazy, howling madly, and his weird voice made people shudder. I could only protect the Jinque Sword in front and Yunwen behind me, waiting for the last moment to come.
"I'm sorry, I may not be able to protect you this time, and I can't fulfill my promise this time, Yunwen, I'm sorry." I muttered.
Yunwen was behind me, quietly leaning her head on my shoulder, her arms around my waist, shaking her head, and saying, "As long as I'm with you, I'm not afraid of life or death."
I smiled bitterly. I was once again forced into a desperate situation, and this time was probably the last time. With such a man-eating monster, how could I survive? Yunwen pulled me over and put my hand on her back. I hugged her and she said, "Since we are going to die, we have to die together. Let's go well to avoid regrets. Hold me tight, and we will never separate even if we die."
"Okay, we'll never separate even if we die!" I hugged her tightly.
Although there was a riot below and loud noises all around, we could only hear each other's voices at this moment. We could even hear each other's breathing, heartbeat and panting in our ears. We were all going to die anyway, so why not die without regrets? We were stared at for so long before, and kissed each other in that situation, which really spoiled the fun. Now that we were going to die anyway, why should we care about those things?
She seemed to have the same idea, knowing that after parting in life and death, I don't know in which life I will see you again. Even if I can see you again, who knows how many years it will take for us to meet again? Cherish the one in front of you.
As I thought about it, we decided to give each other the last kiss of our lives, so I pressed my lips against hers. In this smoke-filled place, we both indulged in our own world, as if everything had nothing to do with us.
Soon, the sound of the iron chain breaking was heard, and dust and smoke billowed around. I thought that instead of doing that, it would be better to just destroy the Golden Sword directly. This way, I would avoid seeing those unbearable scenes and listening to the whistling sounds in my ears. I knew that nothing could save us. A monster who had lost his mind, and it was pitch black around us. Even if there was a black fish jade pendant or something like that, the other party couldn't see it clearly now, and other struggles would be useless. So why waste time?
"Yunwen, goodbye forever!" I said silently in my heart.
However, at this moment, my body suddenly floated in the air, and Yunwen also floated with it. Then the big rock on the wall above my head began to make a faint creaking sound. Not long after, the whole big stone slab floated up, and Yunwen and I also floated up with the special buoyancy. The roaring monster below shouted anxiously and tried to rush out.
I remember where this buoyancy comes from, Su Yuexi!
So after floating up from the ground, I stepped consciously, and I was able to float forward, as if there was wind under my feet, and I brought Yunwen to the ground. Just as the two of us were running away, my feet were caught by the monster. It was pitch black down there just now, and I couldn't see what Fan Chong looked like when he turned into a monster. Now I can see it clearly. I see a hairy hand with twisted fingers, which look like human fingers but also like tiger and wolf claws, extremely eerie and terrifying, especially the black hair that looked like steel needles.
Just as I was getting anxious, the buoyancy suddenly disappeared, and Yunwen and I fell to the ground at the same time, and the huge stone also fell and hit the area of the cave entrance, directly hitting the guy's forehead, which made a dull sound. The key point was that its hands were still holding my feet, so after being knocked down, its hands were temporarily released. After all, not only was its head hit, but the entire arm joint was also stuck outside, and it couldn't withstand such pressure at all.
Thus, Yunwen and I were saved. When I looked back, Su Yuexi was indeed outside. At the same time, there were also Hu Lingshang, Song Bailu, and Sanfu. Basically, everyone who should have come came. Lingshang came over to help Yunwen up, Su Yuexi took the initiative to help me up, and Sanfu also came over to rub against Yunwen. Only Song Bailu was relatively embarrassed, not knowing whether to go forward or retreat.
"Why are you here?" I asked hurriedly.
"This time, Zhou Lang, you have to thank Sister Bailu. If she hadn't ridden Sanfu to inform us of your recent situation, we would still be waiting in the city." Ling Shang said.
I glanced at Song Bailu and saw that she looked a little guilty. Then I remembered that not long ago, those Wutu people surrounded Yunwen, me and the Kunke people at the foot of the mountain. I guess some people went to look for them at that time, but Song Bailu chose to flee as soon as she saw the situation. She must have urged Sanfu to flee with her for a long time to save her life, but Sanfu thought she was going to look for reinforcements, so this misunderstanding happened.
Otherwise, why would she feel guilty? But it doesn't matter. I was just wondering why I didn't see Sanfu and her corpse. And judging from Fan Chong's reaction just now, he didn't seem to have any reaction. This explains why they were not caught at all, but went to get reinforcements.
To be honest, we should thank Song Bailu. Although her original intention might not be to save us and find reinforcements, it was thanks to her that she thought of taking Sanfu away with her instead of following us. Otherwise, the result might be different now. In this case, let's just forget about it.
"Didn't those Wutu people cause you any trouble?" I asked.
"They can't embarrass us, Lord City Lord, you are welcome to come and see them." Su Yuexi said.
I looked outside and saw that all the Wutu people were hanging on the tall trees, tied up tightly by the ghost vines. The ghost vines were very strong and the Wutu people were most afraid of weakness. Even if they had a lot of strength, their hands and feet were tied tightly, and the opponent was also struggling. How could they use their brute force?
As a result, they were trapped on top, unable to go up or down. No wonder Su Yuexi interacted with them a lot and knew them very well. With just this one move, she basically had them under her control.
"Now, Lord City Lord no longer thinks that I am in cahoots with them, right?" Su Yuexi said.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but think of the time when I was reckless. I scratched my neck and said, "I'm sorry, I was confused at that time. Thank you Miss Su for saving me."
Su Yuexi quickly waved her hands and said, "No, no, no, I don't mean to blame you, City Lord. I just hope that you can trust me more and stop doubting my... intentions."
Yunwen and Lingshang kept laughing. Lingshang even pushed me and said, "You should appreciate the girl's kindness."
After saying this, Su Yuexi and I couldn't help but blush.
Just at this moment, there was a sudden commotion on the ground, and the hand that had been limp and powerless just now suddenly tensed up!
