Across the Ancients: Wild Beastman Haunted

Chapter 427 Emergencies
Chapter 427 Emergencies
"Could it be that this ice lake is called Piaoxue Valley?" Chi Zhenzhen looked at the scenery in front of him and asked in surprise.

"That's right." Yubei answered her, "It's not that easy to enter this Piaoxue Valley."

Chi Zhenzhen showed doubts on her face. All she can see now is this icy lake, and she has not seen other roads other than this. Jumping off and stepping on the ice does not mean that she has already reached Piaoxue Valley ?

"Under the ice surface, there is still a way." After finishing speaking, Yubei went down the mountain and walked towards the ice surface.

Chi Zhenzhen looked at Luo Gu suspiciously, wanting to hear his explanation.

Fortunately, Luo Gu did not avoid her gaze: "After all, this is where the Guyi tribe used to live. Every tribe will set up an absolutely safe place on their own territory."

"So the safest place for the Guyi tribe is under the ice?" Chi Zhenzhen was surprised. How could this be possible? They are not a mermaid tribe, so can they find caves under the water?

Luo Gu hummed: "Don't worry, nothing dangerous will happen."

Chi Zhenzhen couldn't say anything more, so he could only follow him down the mountain first.

When her feet stepped on the ice of the frozen lake, she almost lost her footing, and the cub in her arms wanted to jump out of her arms to play with the ice again.

Chi Zhenzhen can only let it go, it is still young and it is the time when it is curious about everything.

After a few words of advice, she saw that Luo Gu and Yu Bei were stepping on the ice with bare feet, and it looked cold at first sight.

"I've stepped on a little bit to find the way down, let's follow." Yubei walked in the front and led the way.

Luo Gu followed and looked around vigilantly. Judging from the current situation, this annoying half-orc should be the only one here.

Chi Zhenzhen focused all her attention on the cub. She was afraid that the cub would jump directly into the ice lake if he became addicted to playing. You don't need to think about how cold the water in the ice lake is. It would be funny when it freezes into ice cubes .

In addition, there is a lot of smog on the surface of the icy lake, and if you don't pay attention, you will not see the cub, so when it is about to run out of sight, Chi Zhenzhen will call it back at the right time.

Watching the cub's four claws sometimes show their nails to grasp the ice to maintain balance, and sometimes put their nails away and use their flesh pads to slide on the ice, it is a joy to play.

Gradually, Chi Zhenzhen felt that there was more and more smoke around him, and the cub also saw the situation clearly and obediently slipped to his master's feet to beg for a hug.

Very nice.

As the white smoke increased, Yubei stopped.

"This is it." Yu Bei said, looking down at the ice in front of him.

Chi Zhenzhen followed his gaze, probably because there was too much white smoke, and she didn't see anything but just looked at the white smoke.

"Little thing, come up." Luo Gu squatted down in front of her.

Chi Zhenzhen blinked and wanted to refuse: "I can go by myself."

Yubei laughed, which was obviously mocking Luo Gu for making a fuss, which made Chi Zhenzhen even more embarrassed.

"Come up." Luo Gu urged.

"I can really walk by myself." Chi Zhen really wanted to see clearly what the road under the white smoke looked like, and insisted that Luo Gu insist on walking with her on his back.

"Go up Chi Fake, it's not bad that he is willing to waste his energy behind your back." Yubei said gloatingly.

Sometimes Luo Gu is invincible when he gets stubborn, so Chi Zhenzhen has no choice but to lie on his back.

This time she was finally able to move on, but then she found that her eyesight was getting lower and lower, and she didn't realize until the whole person was surrounded by the low white smoke. The place Luo Gu was looking at just now was a downward facing walkway.

Sure enough, there was a hole in the frozen lake that led to the bottom of the water, as if a tunnel had been carved out of a thick layer of ice.

As he walked down, the white smoke that filled the ice lake gradually faded, and Chi Zhenzhen also saw the true appearance of this tunnel.

This is indeed like a road dug out of the ice, leading all the way to the ground, and the white smoke on the ice is actually a deceptive effect.

Because it is a road carved out of ice, it is not completely dark inside, and the occasional sunlight refracts in through the ice surface, which is quite beautiful.

The road meandered downwards, leading directly to the bottom of the lake, and at the end was a big cave, but the light in this big cave was going to be much darker, and she had to rely on the light of the night stone to barely see clearly.

"Is the final destination of those people here?" Chi Zhenzhen asked Yu Bei, since he came here one step faster than them, he should know the situation here better.

"If I'm not wrong, it should be." Yubei was not very sure.

Luo Gu didn't like her talking more with this half-orc, so he walked directly into the dark cave with her on his back.

Holding the Ye Mingshi, Chi Zhenzhen gradually saw clearly the furnishings in this dark cave.

This place is not empty, it is even full, and this cave is almost surrounded by a frozen lake, the temperature inside is like staying in a refrigerator.

"Can you let me down now?" Because she was still on his back, she couldn't move by herself to see clearly the layout of the cave.

Luo Gu let her down, and told her: "Don't run around, and don't touch the things inside here."

"Okay." Chi Zhenzhen, with his feet free, took out the two luminous stones, and now he finally had a clear view of the cave.

The cave is not small, like a treasure cave, there are many things, such as animal skins, bones, crude weapons, and even a lot of meat.

However, these meats are hard, and the color does not look very fresh. Based on the information obtained before, these meats must have been in this cave for at least many years.

It seems that this cave should be regarded as the place where the Guyi tribe used to store supplies. These foods will not spoil too quickly if they are stored in a low temperature environment for a long time.

"This is the place built by the head of the Guyi tribe. Except for a few important people in the Guyi tribe, almost no one knows about this place." Yubei walked in and said.

Chi Zhenzhen knew that he was explaining this to her, so it was just right.

After reading the whole cave, Chi Zhenzhen asked curiously: "Is the patriarch of the Guyi tribe a purebred?"

Yu Bei was startled, and his brows hidden in the dark frowned.

"That's right, he's a purebred." Luo Gu replied, "Little thing, how do you know?"

"Guess." Chi Zhenzhen shrugged a little proudly, "I don't know if it's because of the right time and place, the patriarch can think of storing some important food here, which means that hunting is not for them. It's not an easy task, if you are a half-orc, you won't worry about these problems."

Yubei, who was hidden in the dark, smiled and confirmed her guess: "Yes, the food stored here is prepared by the patriarch to deal with some emergencies."

Emergencies?

Chi Zhenzhen caught the words in his words, but she didn't comment on it.
