"Brother Chen, those wise men don't mean what they say. Didn't they promise not to harm us outsiders?" Li Chen shouted while panting.
Chen Si was also extremely depressed.
We had a good chat during the Taoist discussion, thinking that we could get some news, but it turned out that these Taoist priests fell out with each other as soon as they wanted to, without showing any affection at all.
"The evil cultivators of the Three Immortals Temple first deceived the villagers and treated them as human beings for sacrifice, and then they tried to kill us. It's so abominable! When I become a master of Taoism in the future, I must tear down this ruined temple!"
"Brother Chen, I know you have great ambitions, but you have to get away first, right? Let's see where we go next?"
A three-way intersection appeared in front of a few people. The three openings were almost the same, except that the middle opening was wider and the roads on both sides were slightly narrower. There were no other differences.
Chen Si stood at the intersection of the cave entrances. After a moment of feeling, he noticed that there was only a breeze coming from the middle entrance of the cave. He immediately confirmed: "Go this way!"
They drove along this road for another two hours. Li Chen was so tired that he almost died, so he stopped and rested for a while.
During this period, we encountered many forked roads, but there was often only one open road among them, so we didn’t spend much time choosing the road.
Chen Si gave Hao Yueyue a portion of the little food and water he carried.
She followed the example of the two of them and opened the plastic package and ate it.
"This is my first time eating something so delicious."
Hao Yueyue's face was full of joy.
Chen Si originally wanted her to save some food. After all, the road ahead would be long, but he couldn't bear it when he saw her like this, so he gave her his share. Anyway, after practicing, he wouldn't be able to eat. No matter how much I need to eat.
After eating, Hao Yueyue looked at Chen Si with big watery eyes and whispered: "Brother, thank you for saving me."
Chen Si just replied calmly: "Don't thank us too early. You have seen our situation. It's hard to say whether I can escape, let alone take you to escape with me. The Taoist priests here are all very powerful, so casually If we hit one, we’ll have to account for it in the cave.”
"I know, but I still want to thank you, big brother." Hao Yueyue said timidly, "In the village, everyone wants me to die. No matter how Yueyue begs her father and mother, they are unwilling to save me. It seems that only Yueyue Death is the right thing to do.
Fortunately, big brother, you saved Yueyue and let Yueyue know that there is at least one person in the world who wants me to live. No matter whether I can escape in the end or not, I am already satisfied. "
Chen Si was speechless for a while after hearing this.
Children of seven or eight years old are still learning to read outside, visiting amusement parks, and playing house with playmates, but she is already thinking about life and death.
He comforted: "Don't worry, there will be many people outside who want you to survive."
"Yeah!" Hao Yueyue's eyes rekindled the flame of hope.
Another ten minutes passed, and Chen Si's physical strength had recovered to a great extent.
He looked at the dark stone cave where he looked, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.
Those Taoist priests haven't come after them yet? Logically speaking, there shouldn't be any movement at all.
"Fat man, get up! Get ready to go."
He kicked Li Chen on the butt, and Li Chen jumped up in pain.
"Brother Chen, you are very strong, so you have to take your time with your attacks. My little body and bones can't hold you up!"
Chen Si glanced at Li Chen's big belly and felt that this was not a small body.
However, he did not talk to Li Chen and went forward on his own. Li Chen and Hao Yueyue quickly followed.
Not long after walking, there was a sudden "pop" sound, and something seemed to fall to the ground from the top of the cave.
Chen Si used a searchlight to shine and found a soft-bodied creature twisting its body not far ahead.
It is at least half a person tall, looks like an octopus, and has dozens of tentacles flying in the air.
But its tentacles are more like thick maggots than an octopus, twisting and swaying.
Li Chen immediately took out the pistol from his waist, pointed the gun at the monster, and quietly hid behind Chen Si.
"Brother Chen, what is that?"
Chen Si narrowed his eyes slightly, showing a fearful look.
"Perhaps it is some kind of cave-dwelling creature. There is a lack of light in the cave, and the ecological chain is completely different from the outside. These strange species occasionally appear."
As he said this, two other words came to mind.
Monster!
The shape of this monster is very similar to that of a horned dragon. It is twisted and deformed, and it is most likely a demon.
"Then what should we do now, go back?"
The octopus neither attacked nor moved, and just stood quietly in the middle of the cave, just blocking the way of the three people.
But no one dared to go around it. They were not sure whether the octopus spirit was aggressive.
Chen Si thought for a moment and said, "You shoot it twice."
Li Chen was so frightened that he almost lost his grip on the gun, "Brother Chen, how can I have the courage? How about I give you the gun and you do it?"
Chen Si said impatiently: "If I tell you to shoot, hurry up and stop talking nonsense!"
Li Chen swallowed and pulled the trigger on the center of the octopus.
Following the two gunshots, two finger-thick gaps were exposed on Octopus's body, and his whole body twitched in pain.
It identified the direction of the shot, and with a burst of force, several tentacles suddenly charged towards Li Chen.
Its explosive power was truly astonishing. In an instant, it was ejected in front of Li Chen. Its maggot-like tentacles opened wide and were about to wrap up Li Chen.
At the critical moment, Chen Si punched hard, hitting the core of the octopus head-on.
A wisp of violent immortal energy was injected into his body through the fist wind, tearing a big hole in the octopus's body.
The octopus flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground a few meters away, but despite this, its vitality was still not cut off.
I saw it swaying and standing up again, and several tentacles flew towards Chen Si at the same time.
It seemed to recognize that Chen Si was the greatest threat and changed its target.
But after days of practice, Chen Si's physical constitution has surpassed that of ordinary people. What seems to be fast tentacles to ordinary people can be clearly distinguished in his eyes.
Chen Si quickly waved his hands and accurately grabbed a few tentacles. Then he pulled hard and broke several tentacles!
Chen Si rushed forward again, punching several times, hitting the flesh, and beat the octopus into a piece of pulp.
This monster has no bones. If you look closely, there is no so-called core. The entire body is composed of tentacles one after another.
Moreover, these tentacles are actually independent of each other. They are more like a monster made up of many bugs mixed together.
Seeing that the main body was about to die, the hundreds of remaining bugs squirmed and fled in all directions. After a while, they hid in the cracks in the rocks, leaving only a pool of blood and stumps on the ground.
