The cave was very deep. I drove the burning branches at least a hundred meters away in the air, but it still didn't reach the end, but the torch didn't go out. It seems that the oxygen inside is quite sufficient.
I took the torch back, and then fell to the ground and said to the two of them: "From the current situation, there should be no danger inside. Should we go in and take a look?"
Xiaoli lowered his head and asked Xiaobai: "Xiaobai, do you smell something inside?" The little white cat raised her head, sniffed everywhere with her nose, and then replied to Xiaoli: "Shang Xian, here Within five kilometers, there is a strong breath, which is a bit like the sprite jade bottle at the bottom of Dongqian Lake."
This news undoubtedly shocked me and Xiaoli a lot, but I was a little worried and said to Xiaoli: "Could it be that the black hand behind the scenes is the one who snatched the sprite jade bottle?"
After listening to Xiaoli, he also pondered for a while, and then asked me back: "This black hand behind the scenes is just an ordinary mortal, not the one who snatched the sprite jade bottle. But after Xiaobai reminded him, I remembered one thing."
"What's the matter?" I also asked immediately, puzzled. Xiao Li looked at me and looked at me with a thoughtful look. On the contrary, my face felt hot, so embarrassed to avoid it.
Xiao Li said to me in a somewhat guessing tone: "The breath that Xiao Bai smelled should be from the person who attacked you with grass essence just now, and Xiao Bai said that he felt a little bit like Sprite Yuzun. They are similar, so do you think they two are the same person?"
This guess is a little bold, and I don’t feel a bit like it. The two may be about the same strength, but the two of them are not at all similar in terms of dressing up or speaking. Although they both wear the costumes of the Republic of China. , But one is the kind of robe in the early period, and the other is the tunic suit in the later period.
The key is that the appearance and age of the two do not match, one is already full of white hair, and the other feels righteous and middle-aged.
But I thought about it carefully. When I was at the bottom of the lake, the person in front of me also instantly changed from Xiao He's appearance to another appearance. Whether it was clothing or appearance, it was almost all changed in the blink of an eye.
If it is really him, then he pretends to be a new appearance, a new identity to meet us, afraid that we will be entangled with him because of the sprite jade bottle
Such an explanation seems to make sense again, but this speculation also seems difficult to stand firm, because the only similarity is that their strength and the aura they exude are somewhat the same.
So I just said to Xiaoli from a suspicion of suspicion: "If it is really him, it feels like he will not become our enemy, but now we are not completely sure that these two people are the same person."
Xiao Li also didn't say with certainty that they were the same person, and at most he only judged by one feeling.
However, considering the common ground of the two people, Xiaoli analyzed: "Although their positions are not very clear, judging from what they did, it did not seem to be an enemy of us, and from Looking at the white-haired old man, he is also very likely to come for the arranger of this formation, so I think we can try to pursue it."
I agree with this point. The person who snatched our sprite jade bottle, although he fought with us in the end, he changed from him to the appearance of Xiao He, lurking beside us, and did not hurt Xiao He He and attacked us. From this point of view, it really doesn't seem to be an enemy of us, maybe he has some other purpose in stealing the sprite jade bottle.
Since Xiaoli decided to go, how could I object to it, so I also immediately agreed: "Okay, then let's go up." But since it is a mountain cave and we only have one flashlight, I thought about it. He said: "Do you want to make a few torches?"
"Yeah." Xiao Li nodded gently, and we only need to bring branches. When we need it, when we really need it, we can use my mana directly to inflame it, although I can also use it. A fireball was condensed, but that was a mana-consuming behavior after all, and it was not a last resort. Of course, I wouldn't use that method.
After taking a few branches, Xiaoli hugged the little white cat. I took Xiaoli and flew directly to the cave.
Now that there are branches, we will put the flashlight away first. Its power is limited, so let's keep it until the end.
"Huh..." I lighted two branches first, and Xiaoli and I held one by one, and then the little white cat walked in the forefront. The roots next to Xiaoli and I were behind it. Walked towards the cave.
After I got here, I remembered Erha again, and I said to Xiaoli again: "Now let's release Erha too, it's always good to have an extra helper."
But this time Xiaoli hadn’t spoken yet, and the little white cat took the lead and said, “Master, it’s not necessary. Although it’s not that smelly here, I can still smell it vaguely, let alone that guy. Moreover, it has been in a coma since just entering it until now. It is estimated that it hasn't woken up yet, so don't bother it."
After I heard this, I became a little nervous. In my daily life, although I often say that it is stinky and stinky, it is the first time that I can really be stinky to death.
The little white cat also saw my look, and immediately calmed down and said, "Master, please don't worry, it's just a bit nauseated by the stench, and it will recover after a while."
"That's good." With the little white cat, I also feel relieved.
There is no help from Erha in the pursuit of work. Although it is a major loss, there is no way to do it, so this time I have to rely on my own efforts.
Walking in this secluded cave, I didn't feel much outside just now, but when I got inside, I really felt a bit gloomy and quiet. Whenever our footsteps fell, it felt like someone was following us.
So every two steps I take, I always look backwards unconsciously, fearing that I will be stared at by something. This feeling not only did not disappear gradually as I went deeper and deeper, but it became stronger and stronger, and my heart became more and more uneasy.
At this time, the first reaction that flashed through my mind was that I wanted to take Xiao Li's so that I could be courageous. So my hand, which was not holding the torch, began to slowly stretch towards Xiao Li's palm. (End of this chapter)
