Chapter 239 There are monsters everywhere
"In this land without the sun, there are many secrets that others don't know." After taking a sip of tea, the bull demon slowly said, "Look at this towering mountain. There is a cave at the top of this mountain. The cave is not big, but it has many uses. At least my mithril mine is there... Alas, only God knows how much I want to enter it and dig..."
"Then why don't you go?" Jiang Hanye asked a seemingly silly question at this time, but only he knew that only such a question could lead the old cow demon to continue talking.
"Young man, you don't know anything." The old cow demon sighed, "The cave is very special. There is a pillar of light in the middle of the cave, connected to the top of the cave. I don't know where the bottom is. I guess it should go straight to the ground. And I don't know what the beam of light is for, but many times when I quietly observed in the distance, I saw those monsters coming out of it, so I thought it should be a door, a door to another world.
Jiang Hanye and the other four people looked at each other. They understood what the bull demon meant by the pillar of light, which was the same as what they experienced when they came to the demon world from Kunlun Mountain.
"Those monsters?" Ji Yuan said, "How can there be monsters in the demon world?" He spoke so bluntly that he didn't know that he had offended someone.
"You guy, your words are really unpleasant!" It seems that Lao Niu's temper is not particularly good. He stood up, walked to Ji Yuan, grabbed his teacup, and said angrily, "You are not polite, you are not qualified to drink my tea!"
"Cut, give it to me for free!" Ji Yuan snorted and was about to contradict the bull demon. Jiang Hanye secretly pulled him and thought to himself, "Why is this second brother getting more and more angry?"
Ji Yuan also knew that this was an extraordinary period, so he couldn't be stubborn about saying more or doing more, so he had to give up and shrink silently without saying a word.
After dealing with Ji Yuan, Jiang Hanye arched his hand to the cow demon and said, "I'm sorry, senior Niu, my brother has a bad temper, but his temperament is still pure, so please..."
"Come on, don't tell me these nice soft words. I don't like this. Is he stubborn? Humph, compared with my old cow, it's just a cucumber, egg and son! I'm going to teach him a lesson. Don't think you can cross wherever you go!" The cow demon snorted and sat back in his seat. He took Ji Yuan as air and began to talk slowly again. "Speaking of these monsters, I want to explain to you the monsters in the demon world. We monsters have a history. In other words, all the monsters here can find their relatives and ancestors, cats, dogs, wolves, bears or something else in the world, but those monsters are not. They are terrible-faced, fierce in temperament, and do not belong to our demon world at all.
When Jiang Hanye heard the cow demon say this, he knew that those so-called monsters were definitely fierce beasts he met in the colosseum. Maybe those two guys were just the weakest two. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but be a little worried.
"Senior, listen to what you said, it seems that there are a lot of monsters here, so how do you ensure your safety?" Cen Ruoqiu asked curiously. In fact, she also wanted to learn from this question. After all, the place they are about to go to is very dangerous according to this bull demon.
"Well, although my old cow has no other skills, there are two things I am best at. The first is forging. I have dealt with these ore miners in my life. The first thing I do every day when I get up and touch my own forging furnace. It has become a part of my life. The second thing is that it is a little embarrassing to hide. I am good at hiding and will make the enemy dizzy at the critical moment, so that I will have a chance to escape. The bull demon replied bluntly.
"I think most of the plague and walking corpses you mentioned have something to do with those monsters, but it must be dangerous for you to go up, and it will definitely be futile." The old cow demon repeated.
"Thank you for reminding me." Jiang Hanye said, "But no matter what the result of this trip is, we are bound to do it."
"Well, in that case, I'll tell you a tunnel I usually dug out when mining." After a moment of silence, the bull demon made up his mind to tell his secret to Jiang Hanye. "I used to secretly carve a tunnel behind the shack to avoid those monsters. This tunnel leads from the bamboo forest to a little further ahead. I call it Monster Peak, which is full of monsters, which is relatively dangerous, but the distance peak But it's very close, and you can reach the top of the mountain in half an hour.
"Thank you, Senior Niu. In this case, we might as well say goodbye..." Jiang Hanye got up and said, "I'm a little embarrassed to bother you for too long."
"Don't, don't worry." Niu Yao waved to Jiang Hanye and motioned him to sit down. "I still have something to tell you, and to be honest, I haven't seen any living things for so long. I'm really happy to meet you today."
"You say it." Jiang Hanye said that although he had not known the bull demon for a long time, he already knew that the bull demon's nature was straightforward and talkative. He was really afraid that he would continue to talk endlessly and delay his business.
"Don't be afraid, I won't delay you for too long. I just want to leave you for a meal, okay?" The bull demon said.
Everyone was stunned when they heard this. None of them expected that the bull demon would make this request and have a meal. In fact, it was actually a very simple thing, especially among them, there was the cooking master Cen Ruoqiu.
"Ha ha, okay, why don't we prepare it? You just need to provide the ingredients." Jiang Hanye said with a smile.
"Hey, I knew you were good people." Lao Niu said, "I don't have many ingredients, but there are a lot of wild mushrooms and flour. Do you need it?"
"All good." Cen Ruoqiu nodded.
Cen Ruoqiu prepared mushroom steamed dumplings for this meal. She wrapped a full 400 dumplings, but was eaten by the old cow in one breath, and none of the others were caught. In the end, the cow demon touched his belly and sighed, "My old cow can eat such a precious demon world in my life, and it's worth dying!"
"The guidance of our predecessors is the blessing of several of us and the blessings of all sentient beings in the world. Not to mention a meal, even a thousand meals are deserved." Jiang Hanye laughed.
"Don't tell me those sweet words. I want to be practical. Don't say anything else. You can cook a meal for me every 180 years." Niu Yao said, "Well, I've eaten, so I won't force you to stay. Come on, here's something for you." The bull demon returned to the shack and took something from it in a short time. That thing was iron and looked like an iron pimple, but after the bull demon opened it, everyone realized that it was an iron box.
"Can a legendary blacksmith be made into an iron box like this?" Seeing this, everyone muttered in their hearts.
The bull demon took out a few small green pills from the box, so small that he could hardly hold it with his big hand. He gave the pill to each of the four people, and then said, "There is a lot of miasma on the mountain. You can take it and eat it when you are near the exit of the tunnel. It can be used for two hours, but it will be invalid after two hours, so no matter what you go there and see anything, you have to make a quick decision?"
Jiang Hanye nodded: "Great kindness, there is nothing to repay, the boy is only this golden cake..." Jiang Hanye touched it, and there was still a piece of gold cake left on his body, so he wanted to give it to the old bull demon.
"Well, do you think it's useful for me, an old man who is self-sufficient to avoid the world, want gold cakes?" The old cow demon looked at Jiang Hanye and smiled helplessly, "You just remember my request and cook a meal for me every 180 years."
"That's no problem, but we have been here to disturb our predecessors for so long that we don't know your name." Jiang Hanye Road.
"Ha ha, I have no name and no surname. If you have to call me, either call me Lao Niu or call me Broken Horn." The old cow demon replied with a smile.
"broken foot?" At this time, Ji Yuan finally recovered, and his mouth began to forgive again.
"broken angle." The bull demon pointed to his head and said, "Once I drank too much, I fell down and actually hit the forginglu, and the two big horns were burned! So my old friends told me to break the horn.
That must be very painful, but Lao Niu said it easily and looked indifferent, which made everyone admire him again.
"Thank you for your advice. We will definitely come back to repay you in the future!" Jiang Hanye arched his hand.
Under the guidance of the old bull demon, everyone came to the forest full of cow dung. Withstand the pungent smell, they came to a dung pit. It turned out that the bull demon also dug a septic tank. The bull demon didn't know what he had pounded. Everyone saw that the septic tank was divided into two pieces from the middle, and a ladder was exposed in the center. The ladder was not very long. Four or five steps, and there was a smooth passage below.
As soon as Jiang Hanye and others saw the location of the channel, they couldn't help but smile bitterly: "This broken-angle senior, his style of behavior is really extraordinary. Even the channel is hidden so... so different."
Anyway, they still said goodbye to Lao Niu and entered the tunnel one by one after his gaze. When the last Ji Yuan entered the tunnel, they heard a rumble sound, and then they fell into darkness and silence around them, so they knew that it was a broken corner to close the entrance door of the tunnel.
"A smell of cow shit..." Ji Yuan frowned.
"Nevertheless, we still have to be grateful to the predecessors of Broken Horn, don't we?" Jiang Hanye said lightly.
"Uh, what do you say? It's just a nagging old monster. Ji Yuan shook his head.
"Wait a minute, if I can't do it, you can leave me. Don't drag everyone down because of me." At this time, Kan Cangyue, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly said.
Her words made everyone feel uncomfortable. What does it mean? Parting, the parting of death, although it has not happened yet, may really happen to them later.
"No." After a moment of silence, Jiang Hanye said decisively, "The four of us should go back and go back to the world. Although you have this and that experience, I think you always have one thing to solve - whoever makes you like this, you have to ask her for an explanation. You can't always swing like this, right? ?"
Jiang Hanye's words made Kan Cangyue fall into meditation. Yes, who awakened his dead self? Maybe all this has something to do with ghost life, but is it really only related to him? Kan Cangyue really didn't think about this question carefully, because since she came back to life, she has been struggling in confusion and pain, and then encountered the corpse plague.
Cen Ruoqiu listened to their conversation and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. There was a natural connection between her and Kan Cangyue. Now as they get along with each other for longer and longer, this connection is becoming more and more prominent. For example, they will suddenly make the same action, or the same In a word, or when one is sad, the other will also be sad.
"Old Kan Cangshan, I would like to believe what you said, but can you tell me? What should I do?" Cen Ruoqiu said secretly in her heart. She frowned, didn't say a word, closed her eyes and shook her head. Now is not the time to think about the personal affairs of these children. She knew in her heart.
The tunnel is very spacious, probably because this tunnel was originally prepared for the tall bull demon, which made Jiang Hanye and others very fast and convenient to walk. After walking in this tunnel for less than an hour, the sky suddenly appeared in front of them.
The exit of the tunnel was hidden next to a rock. After Jiang Hanye climbed up, he found that the cover was really good: the exit of the tunnel was covered with broken grass and sand, and there were some small stones next to it, which were very strong. There was no difference between stepping on the mountain. If it hadn't been opened from it, no one could see it. There is an entrance here.
"That's it. We have to be very careful." Jiang Hanye said and sent the elixir into her mouth. Others also swallowed the elixir in turn, except Kan Cangyue, who sent the elixir into Xiaobai's mouth.
"Can you see Xiaobai?" Jiang Hanye was stunned.
"Occasionally." Kan Cangyue said, "I'm dead, and no poison can work on me, so it's better to give it."
Jiang Hanye frowned and didn't say anything, but he couldn't tell what it was like.
After everyone walked out of the tunnel, they only felt a top-down pressure in front of them. They couldn't help looking up. Just not far in front of them, there was a sharp peak like awl, which was surrounded by gray fog, even if it was so At close range, they can't tell the color.
"That's it." Ji Yuan looked at the peak and said, "I'm not breathing well."
"Well, it should be here." Jiang Hanye said, "From now on, we should be very careful. If Elder Niu didn't lie to us, it should be everywhere..."
Before Jiang Hanye finished speaking, everyone heard a strange sound of snoring. Because of the old cow's warning, they immediately became alert and concluded that there was a monster appearing.
Sure enough, just after everyone, including Xiaobai, hid behind the rock, a gray-green, similar to a toad, but it was much bigger than a toad, and its teeth were definitely not the monster that a to have appeared. It shook its fat body from a pile of dead grass and drilled out. .
This monster is about the size of an adult, full of pusters, with sharp claws like hooks, and a triangular sharp tail at the tip of its tail. It looks like it is armed from its teeth to its tail.
"Good guy, what the hell?" Ji Yuan couldn't help exclaiming when he saw this monster.
Jiang Hanye wanted to cover his mouth, but he didn't have time, because the obvious eyes of the guy opposite stood up, and his nostrils sniffed in the air and stared at the rock where Jiang Hanye and others were hiding.
"Goo!" The monster's sound is similar to a toad, but it is slightly different, but no matter what it is, Jiang Hanye knows that this battle is inevitable.
"What should I do?" Ji Yuan said, "Fight or run?"
"Of course it's fighting and killing!" After Jiang Hanye finished speaking, he sacrificed the Brahma ruler first. At the same time, the monster also opened his mouth and rushed up to the rock with an ah.
The monster's size is not big, but the terrible thing is its mouth. It seems that its mouth can be opened as big as its body is, which is very helpless. Jiang Hanye's Brahma ruler hit the monster's back, but the back was as hard as a rock, and he bounced back the Brahma ruler with a bang. However, after all, the Brahma ruler is an ancient murderer. How can this monster do anything about it?
But when he saw the Brahma ruler spinning in mid-air, he whined and rushed to the monster again. At this time, Ji Yuan and others were not idle, and they showed their magic weapons one after another and surrounded the monster. Although this monster is alone at this moment, there may be another monster in such a strange place, so they must fight quickly. Besides, what principles and morality do they pay attention to when fighting with this monster?
Although the monster was fierce, it could not withstand the repeated attacks of Jiang Hanye and others, and finally died under the action of Kan Cangyueyue's bow.
The dead monster instantly turned into a pool of rotten water, and the rotten water was quickly evaporated and rose into the gray fog. At this time, Jiang Hanye knew why the mountain was shrouded in fog and why there was a highly poisonous miasma.
"Let's go, lest you have a long night dream." Jiang Hanye said, "Whether we can find the seeds of the plague or not, we always have to go and have a look, right?"
