Chapter 832: Fire

At this moment, the cave was filled with thick smoke. The snakes became restless and scurried around in the thick smoke. It was extremely chaotic.

Wang Qian and I also had a drastic change of expression.

These snakes were restless and would not distinguish between friend and foe. They would attack any living creature indiscriminately.

I knew that I could not stay here and had to leave as soon as possible. I immediately said to Wang Qian, "Go out first and come back later."

"Okay." Wang Qian also knew the seriousness of the matter and nodded immediately. Then, the two of us turned around and quickly ran out of the crack.

Almost as soon as the two of us left the crack, a dense tide of snakes rushed in. There

were too many snakes, and their bodies were entangled with each other. In the chaos, some snakes wanted to pull their bodies out, but some snakes were frightened and curled up, entangled more and more tightly, so no matter how these snakes rushed or struggled, they could not get out of the snake tide.

For a while, a series of chaotic and strange screams were heard, and the sound of the snake tide was so loud that it made people's scalps numb.

While running, Wang Qian couldn't help but look back, then swallowed his saliva and whispered: "Damn, how can there be so many snakes here? Even if there are cracks in the ground, there are so many snakes that we have nowhere to hide!"

Wang Qian was right. In extreme panic, these snakes would crawl around in the cracks underground. In addition, there are so many of them that it can be said that there is no place in this underground space that is absolutely safe.

But now I can't care about so much. If I don't run, then what awaits us is only death.

Wang Qian is a master of physical skills. When he runs at full speed, his speed is still a few points faster than mine. However, he did not leave me behind, but followed me all the time.

I couldn't help but be moved. I thought that although Wang Qian was honest and simple-minded, he could be trusted in times of crisis. I

was thinking this in my heart, but Wang Qian suddenly said something that almost made me spit blood.

"Damn it, if I wasn't afraid that you would run away and I couldn't get the Purple Dragon Pearl, I would have run two kilometers away with my physique and speed..."

I heard the corner of my mouth twitching, and I couldn't help but curse in my heart. Just as I was about to say something to him, I suddenly heard a "whoosh" sound from behind, and then a hot air wave hit my face.

Wang Qian and I were both startled and turned back subconsciously.

However, this one look made both of us change our expressions, and we both twitched our mouths and couldn't help but curse.

I saw that about 20 meters behind us, the group of snakes that were rushing towards us quickly, now seemed to be covered with a layer of gasoline and then lit on fire, and they actually burned into a ball.

Although the fire had just been ignited, it burned extremely vigorously. In just a moment, the snakes that were rushing quickly and wanted to escape from the cave were covered by the rolling flames. Strange cries came out along with the smell of burning...

"It smells so good..." Wang Qian looked at the flames and suddenly rubbed his stomach and said.

I ignored him, just squinted my eyes, with a solemn face.

The fire burned suddenly, and it was so big in an instant. It didn't seem like the people of the Hundred Flowers Alliance ignited it with the help of gasoline.

The most important thing is that the people from the Hundred Flowers Alliance came to surround and kill me. It was purely an accident that they encountered this dragon and dragon eggs.

But then, my heart was shocked, because I suddenly thought of another possibility.

"Based on Xie Tianxiang and the Soul Guiding Old Man's knowledge of Sima Cuo's tomb, they couldn't have been unaware of the existence of a dragon under Sima Cuo's tomb. And they are members of the Hundred Flowers Alliance, so the Hundred Flowers Alliance should have known about this matter in advance. Therefore, they came with so many people this time, not just to surround and kill me..."

I thought to myself, damn, it seems that this group of people from the Hundred Flowers Alliance came prepared. In this case, it's not surprising that they brought a lot of gasoline.

However, the temperature of this flame is much higher than that of ordinary flames. Obviously, gasoline is just a medium. The real ignition of this flame should be someone's use of some kind of fire magic.

"Let's get out first. The fire will get bigger as time goes by. The oxygen here will be consumed quickly. We have to leave."

I turned around and left, but Wang Qian shook his head with a look of regret and said, "What a pity. I'm afraid those dragon eggs will be burned."

I thought to myself, it's already this time, and you're still thinking about those dragon eggs.

Wang Qian and I drilled in the cracks, but this time we learned to be smart. Every time we drilled into a crack, we would make a very secret mark on the crack.

After drilling several cracks in a row, the hot air and thick smoke had almost dissipated. I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then fell to the ground.

The fire was burning too fiercely, and the thick smoke was spreading everywhere, causing the temperature to rise. Sitting on the ground, I found that my whole body was wet with sweat.

However, Wang Qian was worthy of being a master of physical training. At this moment, his face was not red and he was not out of breath. He squatted beside me like nothing had happened, and looked around from time to time.

I also looked back and saw that the fire had illuminated the surrounding cracks red. Obviously, the fire had not been extinguished yet.

"They smell so good. Most of these snakes are non-venomous and edible. It's a pity that they were burned to ashes in a fire." Wang Qian said as he shook his head with a look of regret on his face. He then continued to mutter, "What's more gratifying is that those dragon eggs were burned in a fire. It's such a waste of resources. They are dragon eggs. If they can be hatched and tamed, it will undoubtedly be a great help."

I pondered for a while after hearing this, and then said, "Don't worry, these people from the Hundred Flowers Alliance are not fools. They are here for the dragons and dragon eggs. It's impossible for them to be burned all in a fire."

Hearing this, Wang Qian's eyes lit up immediately and said, "Really? Doesn't that mean we still have a chance?"

"Yeah." I nodded.

"It's done!" Wang Qian clapped his hands, looking ready to do something big, and then said angrily: "Don't let me catch those beasts from the Hundred Flowers Alliance. If I catch them, I promise to beat the shit out of them!"

The fire burned for nearly an hour, and the temperature in the entire underground space became a little higher with the fire.

After an hour, the fire finally subsided, and the underground cracks that were originally illuminated by the fire became dim again and fell into darkness again.

Seeing this, I took a deep breath and said to Wang Qian: "The fire is almost out, let's go back and take a look!"

After saying that, I stood up first and walked back quickly.
