Burning with rage

Chapter 44 The Conversation Between the Demon King and the Strange Guest
Chen Hui and Bing Ling looked at everything around them curiously.

This is a natural cave. There are stalactites all over the cave, and these stalactites can emit a hazy light. These stalactites are full of brilliance, and the surroundings are like dreams.It's just that stalactites are everywhere, the terrain is weird and strange, and there are many slits around it, leading to other places.

From the slit directly in front, there was a faint red light. The strange rocks on the right side were craggy, and nothing special could be seen, while the rustling sound just heard came from the left side.

Perhaps driven by curiosity, or fear of the unknown, the two decided to go in the direction of the sound first, just in case.

Through the slit, there is an open stone chamber.

This stone room had been excavated by hand, and there were no complex and chaotic stalactites inside. Instead, there were huge cages one after another; some cages near the door were bamboo cages, and some inside were made of iron.

These cages were dimly shadowed and filled with all kinds of creatures. It turned out that those rustling noises were made by these animals.

Seeing this, the two were slightly relieved.

The two walked to the stone room and watched all the way, only to feel that the animals in the cage were all kinds of strange: there were monkey cats jumping up and down, there were snow-white and cute rabbits, there were century-old tortoises, there were even pangolins, and snake-like animals in the bottle.

What surprised the two of them was that none of these animals behaved normally, either extremely irritable or dying.Some animals in the iron cages exude a terrifying aura. This aura is very uncomfortable, just like the aura of demons who choose to eat people.

Bing Ling had a lot of fun looking at the monkey cat jumping up and down, walked to the side, wanted to take a closer look, just as the monkey turned around, it backed up several steps in fright, covered its mouth with one hand, The other hand released purple lightning reflexively, pointing at the monkey, speechless.

Chen Hui stepped forward to check, and saw that the monkey's limbs were abnormally swollen, its muscles bulged, and the most surprising thing was its eyes—they were a pair of blood-red eyes, emitting a red light in the dim light, and seeing someone approaching , then frantically attacked the iron cage, like a madman.

Fortunately, the cage was extremely strong, no matter how much the monkey made a fuss, it would not move at all, unable to shake the monkey in the slightest.

This iron cage is already the last cage inside the stone room. .
The two of them were about to walk further in, when suddenly, a black shadow "whoosh" passed under their feet.

"Ah...mouse!" Bing Ling couldn't help screaming, and unexpectedly hid behind Chen Hui.

Chen Hui looked forward, and saw a small cage in the corner cut in half, which was cut by the sword energy from Bing Ling just now.He couldn't help laughing and said: "I thought you were fearless, but I didn't expect our ice fairy to have a screaming specialty?"

Bing Ling said angrily: "Hmph, it's only right for a girl to be afraid of mice!" After saying that, she turned her head and walked towards the innermost part of the stone room.

However, after seeing the innermost thing in the stone room, the two of them stood motionless on the ground, unable to speak a word.

In the innermost part of the stone room is a huge wooden shelf, which is full of bottles and jars.

The most eye-catching thing is the crystal bottle on the middle two layers, crystal clear and translucent.

But inside the bottle, there was a gloomy smell.It was a mass of red gas, as if it was alive, bumping back and forth in the bottle.

A name popped up from the bottom of their hearts at the same time - Demon Spirit!
I heard that there is a strange creature in the world, which comes from the demon world. It is formless and substanceless. It cannot be killed or destroyed.

This kind of creature ranks at the top of the list among monsters, and all the monks in the world know its name, so there is a reason for it.This kind of creature does not cause much harm in the demon world, but it is disastrous to the human world.Therefore, the demon spirits in the human world have long been extinct, and only some ancient books have records, but they have reappeared in the world today——

Right in front of the two of them, these jars were filled with all kinds of monsters, big and small!
They seem to be relatively weak, and they don't have a sense of mind. They just go on a rampage, trying to get out of the bottles. However, these bottles seem to have been subjected to special methods. Even if they hit hard, they can only be bounced back.

Chen Hui put a relatively small bottle into his bosom, wanting to use it as evidence, but Bingling stopped him. The reason is very simple: if people here find that something has been stolen, they will definitely investigate it to the end. If the identity of the individual is found out, I am afraid that his life will be lost.

This move saved the lives of both Chen Hui and Bing Ling.

Chen Hui followed Bing Ling's suggestion and signaled Bing Ling to leave with him.Right now, it's really not the time to do it.

This stone room is probably a big secret of Gongsunyou.

I don't know, but what is there in the center where there is a faint red halo?How many conspiracies are there?

After exiting the stone room, Chen Hui and Bing Ling made up their minds, quickly checked the red halo in the center, and then quickly escaped from the cave, trying to find a way to hide their identities, and stop acting rashly, waiting for the support of martial arts masters.

However, things did not go as smoothly as expected.

The two of them were about to walk towards the place where the red light was shining in the middle, but there was a loud shout from the front: "Who? Stop!"

Cold sweat flowed down the heads of the two of them, and they ran to the dark corner full of stalactites in a hurry, in a panic, and didn't care if they scratched their limbs several times.

When the sound of people approached, Chen Hui and Bing Ling found a dark place with stalactites nearby, and dared not take a breath, held their breath, and squatted there, not daring to move.

The sound of footsteps came, and several torches were lit at the door, and the owner of the sound had already arrived in the cave.If you distinguish carefully, can you tell that there are two people walking, one is light and slow, the other is heavy and rhythmic.

The two peeked out through the gap, and saw that it was the owner of Shen Xue Valley——Gongsun You, and a one-eyed strange man in a black robe with a haggard face and an eyepatch.

I saw Gongsunyou saying to the one-eyed stranger beside him: "Ghost Taoist, the portal here is very well hidden, and no one has ever known that there is a secret passage below. I think you heard it wrong?"

"Gongsunyou, you have to ask your subordinate Wang Haomai about this matter." Gui Daoist said, "I sent two people to guard the hidden place near the rockery, just because I am afraid that the entrance will be discovered by others. Come out. However, your subordinate named Wang Haomai sent two more people to guard it.

"Standing so ostentatiously outside, if I hadn't driven them away, I'm afraid they are still attracting people's attention!"

While blaming the one-eyed man, he held up a strange short spirit staff.

With a wave of his sleeve, he controlled the spirit stick to fly out to test the reality of the stalactite group here.

Coincidentally, a black shadow flashed by at this time, and unexpectedly rushed into the stone room with cages on the left in front of the one-eyed strange man.

Gongsun You was taken aback for a moment, he saw the black shadow clearly, and laughed loudly, "Haha, Daoist Gui, I didn't expect you to make a fool of yourself!"

And the one-eyed man looked embarrassed, still not angry, "Dead mouse, this is the eighth time you have bitten off the cage and escaped, if it is not worth researching, you see I won't take your skin off next time... ..."

Chen Hui and Bing Ling in the dark suppressed their smiles, and their hearts were finally relieved.
