1872 Master, there is news

In this deep, semi-enclosed space, even the slightest sound can attract people's attention, not to mention the increasingly loud chirping sounds of geckos.

Feng Qingchen even heard a few hissing sounds from it...

"We are in trouble." Feng Qingchen quickly put the food in his hand into his mouth, chewed it twice and swallowed it with water: "If I am not mistaken, we should have encountered snakes. Snakes always like this kind of damp and dark places."

"Throw the barrel farther away so it doesn't affect our fight." Feng Qingchen quickly took out his pistol and didn't bother to lean against the rock wall, which felt as slippery as snake skin, and stood tightly against the wall.

There was no way. In this small and cramped space, the space they could move in was too small, while snakes had much more space to move than them.

"Snow Wolf, climb up." The Ninth Prince pointed to the top of the mountain wall, signaling Snow Wolf to climb up and lie across the middle, while he and Feng Qingchen each guarded one side.

The sharp claws of the snow wolf showed its power at this time. Even a dagger could not penetrate the thick moss. The snow wolf swung its claws and left grooves on it. With two swishes, its front and hind paws each supported one side, and in a few seconds it climbed above Feng Qingchen and the Ninth Prince's heads.

The scenery up there is so beautiful. Snow Wolf was somewhat intoxicated. There were not many people who could stand above the Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen.

"Walk forward and see what's ahead." Although the flashlight on the snow wolf's head was weak, it was enough to illuminate the attack range.

The snow wolf grunted and moved forward obediently. After only three or five steps, it stopped and let out a howl. The snow wolf slid down rapidly, and its claws scattered the moss on both sides, making it fly everywhere.

Cough cough... Feng Qingchen choked and raised his hand to wave away the moss debris in front of him. When he looked up, he saw a lizard in the snow wolf's mouth. The color of the lizard was exactly the same as the moss. If it hadn't been held in the snow wolf's mouth, Feng Qingchen would not have been able to tell the difference between it and the moss.

"Chameleon, we're in trouble now." Feng Qingchen was overwhelmed when he saw the thing, but at the same time he was glad because lizards are generally non-venomous. Unless they are extremely unlucky, they will never be bitten by a poisonous lizard.

"Ahh..." The snow wolf swallowed the lizard in one gulp. Being used to eating braised beef with soy sauce, the snow wolf disliked the taste of the lizard, but it was wrong to waste food, so it had to swallow it reluctantly.

"Go further and see how many there are." The Ninth Prince had no intention of fighting with this little creature that was only looking for food and had little killing power.

This is just a waste of effort.

As a temporary scout, the snow wolf crawled forward again. Fortunately, its huge body had its front and hind paws higher and lower, allowing the snow wolf to stretch out its body instead of curling up in the middle, otherwise the snow wolf would definitely cry.

Feng Qingchen and the Ninth Prince did not move. Although the lizards were not very lethal, if their numbers were large, they could still cause them great losses. They understood the principle that an elephant can be killed by a large number of ants.

The snow wolf was very fast and came back in the blink of an eye, but its expression was not right, as if it was frightened by something.

As long as the meaning is not too complicated, Feng Qingchen and the Ninth Prince can read what the snow wolf wants to express from its eyes.

"It seems that our luck is really good." Feng Qingchen was still in the mood to joke, which showed how good her mentality was.

Please, Xiao Yi can walk out by himself, the two of them shouldn't be so unlucky. This group of lizards are most likely attracted by the food, if that doesn't work, then just sacrifice some and have a good meal.

Regardless of whether there was danger ahead, the Ninth Prince did not intend to let Feng Qingchen take risks. He pointed at the snow wolf and said, "Sit on the snow wolf's back."

The snow wolf knew the seriousness of the situation, and it landed on the ground with a crash, motioning Feng Qingchen to sit down. Feng Qingchen knew that his combat ability was not strong, and it was not realistic for him to fight with species like lizards in close combat, so he obediently sat on the snow wolf's back, ready to shoot it from behind.

The hissing sound became louder and louder, and it was different from the sound of a snake spitting out its tongue. Feng Qingchen frowned, vaguely feeling that something was wrong. In her impression, the combat value of lizards didn't seem to be very high.

Just as Feng Qingchen was about to open his mouth to remind the Ninth Uncle, a shadow the same color as the moss suddenly flew out and pounced on the Ninth Uncle: "Hiss..."

This figure seemed to be a part of the rock wall, sticking to it, and not even a trace of its presence could be detected. If it were not for those blood-red eyes, even if the Ninth Prince and Feng Qingchen had the best eyesight, they probably would not have been able to spot it.

"Lizardmen." Feng Qingchen screamed. What they encountered was not a group of lizards, but lizardmen. Their combat effectiveness was not on the same level.

"Be careful," Feng Qingchen quickly warned, and at the same time pointed his pistol at the lizard man and fired...

With a bang, the bullet flew out of the chamber...

The distance between the two sides was very close. Although the lizardman reacted quickly, he was not faster than the bullet. Bang... The bullet pierced through his scales, and bright red blood spurted out. At the same time, the long soft sword of the Ninth Prince also arrived in front of the lizardman. The long soft sword was like a water snake, which entangled the lizardman and made it impossible for him to escape.

Feng Qingchen saw the opportunity and shot out the Flying Tiger Claw, hanging himself in the air: "Snow Wolf, get down..."

Feng Qingchen didn't need to say much, the Snow Wolf understood what Feng Qingchen meant. When the Snow Wolf fell, it aimed its claws at the Lizard Man. When it was only a palm away from the Lizard Man, it pressed the Lizard Man against the rock wall with one claw, and pressed its hind claws against the other side, pressing the Lizard Man to death...

The space was too small, and the lizardman was powerless to resist. Even if he was able to resist, he was no match for the snow wolf. A trace of panic flashed in Lizardman's eyes, and he opened his mouth to summon the little lizard, but before he could utter a single sound, the sword of the Ninth Prince was in front of him. The lizardman was so scared that he dared not shout anymore, and said with difficulty: "No, no, don't... kill me."

He spoke a few words in a disjointed manner, and his voice sounded strange, as if he had just learned to speak.

"Can you speak?" Feng Qingchen raised his eyebrows in surprise, let go of the rope of the Flying Tiger Claw, and slowly let it fall to the ground.

"I...human." The lizard man could express very few words and could only gesture with his hands. His blood-red eyes were filled with a layer of mist and tears were streaming down his face. He stared at Feng Qingchen and the Ninth Prince without blinking.

The lizardman's body is covered with dark green scales, but his hands are like those of a human. His five fingers can be bent and are very flexible. However, his nails are very long and hard, like the claws of a wild beast, and can easily tear prey into pieces.

"You were originally a human, but you've stayed here for too long that you became like this?" The Ninth Prince was disdainful to say anything, so Feng Qingchen had to take charge of the questioning.

The lizard man nodded heavily, his eyes full of excitement and expectation. He pointed to his stomach and used all his strength to say the word "hungry".

He came out to look for food only because he smelled the fragrance of food. He had not eaten human flesh for more than ten years, and food was too lucrative for him.

"Save, save me... Sword, sword." The lizard man pointed at the sword in the Ninth Uncle's hand, his eyes shining, extremely excited: "I... I..."

Uh... he wouldn't be saying that he is a swordsmith and the sword in the Ninth Prince's hand was made by him, right?

Feng Qingchen was afraid that she had misunderstood, so she silently sought the Ninth Uncle's approval. The Ninth Uncle hesitated for a moment, then nodded slowly...

Their luck seemed to be good, this man was most likely the swordsmith of Qinjian Villa. It looked like the Emperor's Sword would not be hard to find!
