The dream is over...
When I opened my eyes, I saw the slightly shining top of the abyss. It should be around seven or eight o'clock in the morning.
Just when he was about to get up, Chen Yao felt something strange... At this moment, Chen Yao was lying down, and the back of his head was resting on a soft and warm place, which made him sleep particularly comfortably that night, but he clearly remembered last night He was sitting by the fire, and sleeping behind him were...the Yunxi sisters? ! !
Suffer!
Sure enough, a cold voice came.
"Get up when you wake up. How long are you going to lie down?"
Uh-huh! Chen Yao broke into a cold sweat and hurriedly sat up.
Pretending to be confused, Chen Yao turned to look at Yun Xi and compared the positions...
Alas, it’s the lower abdomen, what a pity...
But God Binding, he is dead this time.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't know why I fell asleep last night..."
"You slept comfortably! You were moving around and talking nonsense last night, which made me unable to sleep well..."
Qiu Yunxi stood up and smoothed his hair, and said with a tired face, but he didn't seem to be angry. Speaking of which, although Yunxi said that his temper has become worse in recent years, he has never really touched him... .
"Ahem, would you like to sleep a little longer?"
"No need, you know I don't have the habit of sleeping back."
"Ah, good morning, brother and sister..."
The conversation between the two woke Yue Li up. A few messy hairs, combined with her sleepy posture, were so cute that Chen Yao wanted to step forward and pinch her face.
"Ah? Sniff sniff~ Brother is so dirty! He also stinks! Don't come over!"
Chen Yao stood up and looked at himself. He was indeed dirty. Half of his body was lying on the ground last night...
"It's embarrassing to tell me, but you are not a little cat yourself!"
"No! I'm much cleaner than Brother Yao!"
It just so happened that Jiang Hu, who was keeping vigil nearby, also came back.
"Brother, wake up, last night..."
"Ahem, let's stop talking. Let's boil some water and let's take a bath. We've been busy these past two days."
"But there's nothing here?"
"Building a stone wall and digging two holes means we both have to work hard again."
"Oh, then I'm going to fetch water."
"Let's go together, Yun Xi, please light the fire."
"Um."
Chen Yao took out the spare pottery pot, and each of him and Jiang Hu carried one and set off towards the water source.
Jiang Hu smiled innocently on the way.
"Hey, brother, you slept so soundly last night. I was embarrassed to call you. You are so beautiful."
"Ahem, don't mention it. I don't know what happened last night. I fell asleep after sitting for a while."
Chen Yao's face turned red.
The camping location was a bit far away, and it took the two of them half a week to get to the water source. After getting the water, they found that there was not much water in the puddle, only half of what it was when they first arrived.
"Well, we can't stay here much longer."
"We stole the fruits of the alien beasts and used most of their water sources. We were discovered and suffered."
When the two came back with water, Qiu Yunxi had already lit a fire, and the stone stove had been enlarged, obviously for boiling two pots of water.
Putting the two pottery pots on the stone stove, Chen Yao glanced at Yun Xi and Yue Li, both of whom had some dust on their faces.
"Let's go, Xiaohu, let's build a stone wall first."
The two worked for half a week before building a simple stone wall half a meter high and two meters long, and then covered the gap with some branches and leaves.
"Okay, let's dig two more holes. Well... half a meter deep and half a meter wide will do."
The brothers took out their daggers and daggers and started digging on the ground again. It took more than half a week before they were done. Chen Yao also found some leaves and weeds from nearby and covered them with the walls of the pit. This was considered completed. After doing all this, the two of them collapsed on the ground with a plop.
"Huh...brother, it's better to stay in the village. You'll get nothing when you come out."
"That's right, you have to rely on yourself when you go out."
The two brothers came to the stove in disgrace, and the water happened to be boiling. Chen Yao picked up the clay pot and poured a pot of hot water into one of the pits, and asked Jiang Hu to go back and forth to add a pot of cold water.
"Yun Xi Lili, you two take turns washing first, then use the pit on the left."
"Huhu~ I can finally take a shower! My clothes are all dirty!" Yue Li said happily.
"That's right! Brother Yao, here you go!"
Qiu Yueli took off Xiaoqing from her shoulder and handed it to Chen Yao. Chen Yao took it and put it directly on his shoulder.
"you..."
Qiu Yunxi was about to turn around and say something.
"Don't worry, we'll be watching outside."
Qiu Yunxi said nothing.
Even if they were far away and did not listen deliberately, the surrounding environment was extremely quiet, there was not even the sound of an insect, but the gentle sound of water rippled heavily on the hearts of the two elders. The two brothers They started chatting away one after another to divert attention.
"Brother, why did you suddenly sleep to death last night? Could it be the fault of something in that ancient building?!"
"No, I think it's because I overused my wild skills last night."
Just when Jiang Hu was about to continue asking, Chen Yao's palms first lit up with red-orange light. Following Chen Yao's thoughts, the energy light in his palms gradually faded and turned into a circle of fine, dancing green-red flames.
"how did you do that?!"
Chen Yao was speechless, stopped his wild skill, then drew out his dagger and grasped the hilt tightly with both hands.
"drink!"
The red-orange energy flames that lit up again in Chen Yao's palms gradually spread to the hilt of the sword. The light in both palms dissipated, but the light on the hilt did not dissipate.
Jiang Hu's eyes widened, and then he tried to get his hand close to the hilt of the sword. He felt the temperature was frighteningly high, and he retracted his hand.
"I believe that the use of wild techniques is not single and rigid, but can be changed, so I practiced it a few times, and it was successful. However, this process consumes a lot of wild energy, and if you accidentally use it too much, it will Aftereffects occurred.”
"Brother, you are so awesome!"
"Practice the truth!"
“I’ll try it myself one day!”
"Don't screw yourself up..."
About a week passed.
"Brother! My sister and I have finished washing!"
Chen Yao Jiang Hu turned his head and happened to see Yun Xi Lili walking out from behind the stone wall.
The two sisters had just changed into clean clothes, and there were still some drops of water on their skin. Their wet hair fell lazily on their jade shoulders. Under the dim light and the mist, Chen Yao seemed to see two elves born in the world. ..
"Gu..."
Chen Yao's throat moved, but he didn't speak.
Jiang Hu turned his face away when he heard Chen Yao's dissatisfied voice, as if he didn't know this person.
"Have you seen enough? The water has gone cold."
Qiu Yunxi said coldly while wiping Yue Li's hair.
Chen Yao turned his head as if he was electrocuted and touched his nose awkwardly.
"Xiaohu, you or me first?"
"You go first, brother, I have to boil another pot of water!"
"Too..."
Chen Yao prepared the bath water and immersed his body in the pit. He almost made a sound because it felt so comfortable, but fortunately he didn't. The three of them were not far away, and the bath was still a little uncomfortable.
After putting on clean clothes, he suddenly remembered the finger that Mr. Jing had given him before. He searched for it for a long time and finally found it in his ring space.
After washing, Chen Yao called Jiang Hu, and they worked hard all morning...
It is now noon, the time when the light is most abundant above the top of the abyss.
Yue Li hugged her dirty clothes, thoughtfully.
"Sister, when do we wash our clothes? They all stink..."
"How about now?"
Qiu Yunxi turned to Chen Yao when he spoke, obviously asking.
"It might work?"
"Oops! Forgot! Brother, we can't go to that place to get water anymore!"
"how?!"
"When I went to collect water on my last trip, I found some more footprints near the water source, which seemed to belong to the previous group of alienated lizards."
"It's terrible... It seems that they found that the nest was safe and returned to the nest. Moreover, there is not much water at the water point. They found out that it was us who did it..."
Turning his head and looking at the little guy with his head tilted on his shoulder, Chen Yao felt a little headache.
"Looks like the clothes won't be washed, and we need to explore this building as soon as possible. There's no time to waste."
A few people packed up, put on their equipment, simply drank some water, ate some dry food, and had breakfast and lunch together.
"Okay, it's time to see what's in this building."
Chen Yao stepped forward and tried to push the stone door hard, but found that the stone door was not moving at all!
"hiss..."
After observing around the stone door, Chen Yao found that the structure of the stone door and the door frame was quite special. The stone door frame locked the surroundings of the stone door. The three sides of the stone door were trapezoidal in cross-section, and there were no door handles, so they could only be pushed in from the outside. open.
"This door can only be opened from the outside, and it is very heavy. It seems that there is something terrible inside."
"Brother, let me try!"
Jiang Hu put down the equipment in his hand and stepped forward, holding two stone doors with both palms and pushed hard! The stone door just shook, and then some ashes fell on his head.
Jiang Hu was not happy now. Wasn't this a joke?
Then the muscles all over his body bulged, and he activated his strong body and great strength at the same time.
Jiang Hu's arms were shining with red light, and his body was turning with earth-yellow light. At this moment, under the interlacing red and yellow light, his strength had at least tripled!
"drink!"
Xiaohu's arms pushed out at least three hundred kilograms of force! Driven by this force, the stone door finally slowly opened inwards.
Seeing that the stone door was already half open, Chen Yao stepped forward and patted Jiang Hu Qiujie's back.
"That's enough, Xiaohu, save some strength."
After hearing this, Jiang Hu stopped, took two steps back and returned to normal. He sat down on the ground with some panting. This state was too consumed and obviously could not be maintained for long.
"Good little tiger, we can't get in without you here."
Xiaohu chuckled.
"You rest for a while, and I'll see what's going on inside."
Chen Yao turned around and looked inside the building...
He discovered a strange thing. It was noon, the time when the light was most abundant under the black abyss. However, once the light shone into the building, it would disappear, making it impossible for him to see clearly what was going on inside.
"Ah! Brother, it's so dark inside, it's so scary!"
At this time, Yue Li also poked her little head out from behind Chen Yao and looked in.
"Well, let me try making a torch..."
Chen Yao took off the cloth bandaging the wound on his shoulder and took out a grease candle from the binding ring, which Chen Yao prepared himself before traveling.
Find a thicker branch, then wrap it with a cloth strip while soaking the cloth strip with melted candles. After a while, a simple torch is made.
Chen Yao held a torch in his right hand and lit it with a flame on his left index finger.
"Well, my ridiculous skills are very useful..."
He leaned half of his body into the building and stretched out the torch with his right hand. The flames that were burning fiercely shrank in an instant, and the lighting range of the torch was also very small. It could only illuminate the surrounding area of more than one meter. This was too abnormal. .
Chen Yao got out directly.
"Hiss...it's very weird inside. It's naturally bright, and the natural flames seem to be suppressed inside..."
"There's something really weird in there."
"Ah! What should we do then! Otherwise we won't go in..."
Qiu Yueli was the most afraid of the dark among them, and she didn't dare to go in after hearing this.
"No, I have to go in and take a look. I'll think of a way."
Chen Yao held a torch and planned to go in and take a look again.
At this time, Xiao Qing, who was lying on Yue Li's shoulder, suddenly jumped onto Chen Yao's shoulder and rubbed Chen Yao's face.
"You want to go in too? It's very dangerous inside."
Chen Yao scratched the little guy, but Xiao Qing shook his tail indifferently, as if to convey a positive meaning.
"Okay, then I'll take you in and have a look."
Holding the torch, Chen Yao took two steps inside, turned around and looked outside the door, finally knowing why the light was blocked.
Through the light from the door, Chen Yao could see some diffuse black fog with the naked eye. This was similar to the fog at Li Tiejiang's house before, and even thicker.
Once the flame of the torch touches this black mist, the fire will weaken, as if the flame has been swallowed up.
He walked around a few meters near the door and found that there was nothing except the hard stone floor under his feet. Looking inside, he saw thick and deep darkness. The torch in his hand was about to burn out. Chen Yao was ready to go out first. Thinking about it again, this place made him feel very uncomfortable.
"Tssssssssssssssss!"
Before Chen Yao could turn around, a black shadow swept across, and the torch in his hand suddenly went out!
"Suffer it!"
The torch was extinguished completely, not even a spark was left. Thick black mist instantly enveloped Chen Yao's whole body, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
At this moment, Chen Yao had his back to the entrance. As long as he turned around, he could escape from here in a second.
But he didn't dare to turn around. Chen Yao didn't see clearly what the black shadow was just now, so he could only stare at the dark area directly in front of him, and a strong sense of danger surged into his heart!
Just when Chen Yao was about to lose his hold and wanted to go backwards and touch out, Xiao Qing on his shoulder hissed, and a faint green light lit up!
These rays of light instantly dispelled the darkness around Chen Yao and illuminated a large area. The strange black mist around him faded away like a tide as soon as it touched the light!
With the help of the light, Chen Yao vaguely saw several wriggling black tentacles, and quickly retracted deeper into the dark area.
He also took this opportunity and quickly retreated...
