Chapter 169 The Timid Python
Chapter 169 The Timid Python
After walking nearly a mile according to the markings on the map, they suddenly found a stone wall in front of them blocking the way, but the people walking in front were gone.
According to the markings, this should be the place? Bai Xinyin took out the map and looked at it again. It was correct, but this was a stone wall, tightly sealed. It didn't look like there was a door when he touched it. Also, where did those people go?
So she knocked here and touched there on the stone wall. Just as she was wondering, someone shouted: "Look!"
The stone wall gradually became transparent, and the situation inside could be seen.
Dugu Feng and his companions were fighting a giant python, and Wei Wuji was covered in blood. The fourth debater was also lying on the ground, gasping for breath.
It turned out that after they opened the stone wall, they were swept in by a giant python. They were caught off guard and had no time to dodge, so they were swept all over the ground by the "thump thump" sound.
Where there is treasure, there are spiritual creatures guarding it, but as soon as they entered, they didn't expect the giant python to come so quickly.
Soon, the giant python wrapped around Dugu Feng. Veins on Dugu Feng's neck were exposed and he was about to suffocate.
The fourth mage took out the Kunlun Mirror and shone it at the giant python. The giant python dodged in a hurry and turned around to attack the fourth mage from behind.
Everyone outside was stunned, thinking that Master Sibian was going to be killed this time. Unexpectedly, the monk picked up the staff on the ground and stabbed it straight into the python's head. The python's head was hit and it shook, and seemed to wilt a little.
Master Sibian then took the Kunlun Mirror and shone it at the giant python. The giant python showed fear in its eyes and suddenly flew away for a long distance.
After composure for a moment, the giant python looked back again, and seemed to glance at Bai Xinyin. Just when everyone thought it was going to turn around and pounce again, this guy suddenly showed a cunning light in his eyes, turned around and ran away without hesitation.
"Don't run, come back and bite that monk! You are such a cowardly python, why don't you fight back a few times to show your determination to protect the treasure! You have wasted such a big body." Zhao Qing muttered.
If the python heard this, it would definitely retort: "What do you know? Our master said, if you can beat us, then fight, if you can't, then run away. Anyway, we can't dominate this world. It's better to keep your life than to lose your wealth."
Dugu Feng was strangled to death by the python and sat on the ground gasping for breath. Dongfang Gu limped over and gave him a pill to swallow, and then massaged him to relax. The soldiers who were swept to the ground by the giant python also climbed up and sat on the ground to rest.
At this time, the image on the stone wall gradually became blurred and finally disappeared.
They must have a way to get in. Bai Xinyin looked around and saw nothing but a peach tree ten steps away from the stone wall. It seemed that there were peaches on the tree, but they seemed to have been eaten by the birds and beasts on the mountain. Only one peach was left, hidden in the dense leaves and not conspicuous.
"What season is it? There are still peaches?" Bai Xinyin was secretly curious. Thinking about it, he walked over and reached out to touch the two peaches.
"Click", with a sound, a cave door opened on the smooth stone wall.
Yes, the peach is the mechanism. Everyone was just looking at this side and didn’t expect that they didn’t see such an obvious mechanism.
As the cave door opened, everyone did not dare to go in easily, in case the python jumped out again and swept them away. She looked at Mu Yunxiao, and Mu Yunxiao nodded. The two of them walked into the cave back to back in tacit understanding. After inspecting the cave, they found nothing unusual, and then waved for everyone to go in. Since the cave was not very big, Mu Yuanxiao asked some people to guard outside, and only took a small number of people in, and those outside stayed where they were to take care of it.
The cave was very cold, and Ah Luo shuddered. She looked forward, but there was no trace of Wei Wuji. Although she was concerned about Wei Wuji, she knew that it was impossible for them to be together, so she could only keep this feeling in her heart.
The crowd continued to move forward, but there was no sight of any trace of the Wei and Hun people, as if they had disappeared out of thin air.
There was a stone table and two stone benches in the cave. On the stone table was an unfinished chess game. I don't know if it was stuck to the stone table due to age. The fight just now didn't knock it over. However, the tabletop and benches were very clean, as if they had just been wiped. Bai Xinyin tried to sit on the bench.
There are three doors in the cave. I wonder what is inside each door? Some soldiers walked over and tried to open the doors.
Maybe those people just now had all sat down, and just when she was wondering, Bai Xinyin suddenly smelled a smell: "It's poison gas, don't breathe!"
Two soldiers who were walking ahead to open the leftmost door had already fainted.
"Close that door quickly!" But before anyone could get close to the door, two more soldiers fainted.
We can't get close to the door, what should we do? We can't hold on for much longer, so let's retreat first!
"Retreat!" Following Mu Yuanxiao's order, everyone began to retreat in a hurry.
In the panic, someone accidentally touched the remaining chess pieces on the table. With a "creak", a big crack appeared in the ground in the middle of the cave. Bai Xinyin and the third prince were walking there, and they fell in without warning. Mu Yunxiao, who was closest to him, saw this and hurriedly grabbed her hand and fell in with her.
"Ayin!" The shouts of A'Luo and others came from behind.
Bai Xinyin felt a dazzling light coming towards her and quickly closed her eyes. As she was upside down, she felt as if her head hit something and she fainted again.
Damn, why do I always faint? Bai Xinyin must be shouting in her heart.
After an unknown amount of time, Bai Xinyin, who had fallen into the cave, woke up.
It was so dazzling, some memories flashed into my mind, and I seemed to remember a lot of things.
Bai Xinyin opened her eyes hazily, and the first thing she saw was a peerless face. She found herself lying in Mu Yunxiao's arms.
After seeing him, I couldn't help but feel at ease.
"Ayin, how are you? Are you feeling unwell?" Mu Yunxiao asked with concern.
Feeling a little pain in the head, Bai Xinyin pointed there, and it seemed like there was a lump there. Apart from that, there was no pain in the whole body, so he looked around.
I saw gold, silver and jewelry all around me, filling the entire room. Not far from me was a huge night-shining pearl with some blood on it. I guess my head hit it when I fell.
The third prince also fell down. He seemed to be fine. He was knocking here and touching there, as if he was looking for something.
"Is Third Brother looking for a way out?"
"Yes."
"Don't you want these jewels?"
"If you want it, you have to be alive to get it."
The third prince smiled bitterly: "We have to get out first. This place is well sealed, but there is nothing to eat or drink. You have been unconscious for almost two hours. I don't know how anxious the people outside are. We have to find a way out as soon as possible. Otherwise, we can only eat gold."
"Find the largest coral, turn it left once, and then right once." Bai Xinyin said to the third prince.
Zhao Hongzhi looked at her with strange eyes.
"Listen to her." Mu Yuanxiao said to Zhao Hongzhi affirmatively.
"You have to listen whether you want to or not. I'm just curious. How did she know?" said the third prince, his eyes busy looking for the largest coral.
Sure enough, among the many corals, there was a coral that was more than one meter tall, and the ones that were more than a foot tall were the best. There were many such coral trees in this house.
Then he turned it three times as Bai Xinyin said, and with a creaky sound, a door appeared on the tightly closed stone wall.
