The further back Jiang Yunguang walked, the wider the road became. At the back, the road was actually wider than the official road in the capital. The sound of water was getting closer and closer, Jiang Yunguang held up a torch to shine, and finally saw a huge lake.
The lake is endless, with green water and colorful stalactites on the top. Jiang Yunguang walked to the lake and took a sip of water. The water was cool and sweet, so he simply put his head into the lake and drank. While he was drinking, he suddenly saw something floating at the bottom of the lake. Shining down with the light of the torch, he saw countless corpses floating at the bottom of the lake, either male or female, old or young, each with their eyes open with resentment. Eyes fixed on him.
The water Jiang Yunguang had just drank spurted out instantly. He hurriedly backed away, trying to return along the original path, but found that the path he came from had disappeared.
"Now that you're here, don't leave in a hurry." Suddenly, countless torches lit up on the rock wall next to the lake, and the old man with white hair and childish face was seen standing on a towering stalactite in the center of the lake, with a sinister smile. Look at him.
"Why has Brother Jiang been gone for so long?" Ye Wuji paced back and forth in the cave, his face full of uneasiness.
"I also heard the sound of water in the underground lake. It should be not far from here. Why hasn't there been any movement after so long?" Ye Wuji walked to the intersection where Jiang Yunguang disappeared and said, "I want to go in to find him. I should Nothing will happen to you, right?"
"Wait a minute." Zhan Qingfeng stopped her, "If Brother Jiang is okay, he should be back soon."
"What if something happens to him?"
"Then you shouldn't go in. Your martial arts are only a little better than Brother Jiang, and now you are poisoned. If Brother Jiang really encounters something that he can't solve, you can't solve it even if you go there. Instead, I let myself get trapped in it in vain.”
"Then what do you think we should do?" Ye Wuji held the sword tightly and said, "We can't leave Brother Jiang alone!"
"I'll go in and find him." Zhan Qingfeng said.
"What's the difference between you going in and me going in? Your martial arts skills are about the same as Brother Jiang's." The two people were arguing when a voice sounded in the cave.
"Stop fighting, come in and stay with me!"
Ye Wuji's expression changed drastically. This was the voice of the strange old man from before! The floor of the cave suddenly began to squirm like an animal's large intestine. Bags bulged on the ground, and countless insects crawled out of the ground.
These bugs were much larger than the ones they had seen outside before, and the largest ones were as tall as half a person.
"Run!"
Without Zhan Qingfeng's instructions, Ye Wuji immediately used his Qinggong and ran out of the cave. When he was about to run out of the cave, the half-human-tall insect stretched out its claws and hooked the back of Ye Wuji's clothes.
Zhan Qingfeng made a prompt decision and cut Ye Wuji's clothes with his sword. Then he pushed hard behind her and pushed her out of the cave. He turned around and faced the insect with his sword.
Ye Wuji rolled down on the grass outside the cave. At the same time, a huge stone rumbled down from the top of the cave entrance, sealing the cave entrance tightly.
"Brother Zhan!" Ye Wuji had rarely cried since she was sensible, but at this moment she couldn't help but burst into tears. She chopped the stone with her sword, trying to rush into the cave and rescue Zhan Qingfeng. But even if she chopped the fine steel sword into pieces, the stone remained unmoved, sealing all the sounds inside the cave and preventing any outside transmission.
The sun rose, and Ye Wuji wiped away his tears and collected himself. She believed that Jiang Yunguang and Zhan Qingfeng would never die like this. The old man went to great lengths to capture the two of them, certainly not just to kill them. Although the cave is now sealed, there must be other entrances, otherwise how would the old man get out
But even if they find the entrance, they can't just rush in and save people with enthusiasm. The old man's methods are weird. She is no match. If the two meet across from each other at this time, she will only catch herself and cannot save anyone.
