Dragon's Origin

"Another place?" The female boss swept the entire underground space again, confirming that she hadn't missed any corner, and then asked suspiciously, "Where?"

Wang Sheng stamped his foot on the ground and suddenly smiled: "Here!"

"Here?" The female boss heard the sound of Wang Sheng's foot stomping, and her eyes were attracted. Hearing Wang Sheng's answer, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise: "How is that possible?"

"Why is it impossible?" Wang Sheng asked with a smile, "Give me a reason why it's impossible?"

"Here..." The female boss just said two words, but suddenly couldn't continue. Because she suddenly realized that all the shortcomings of the impossible places she had mentioned before were completely absent here.

First of all, it's unexpected. This is definitely the top priority. Who would have thought that after crossing a lava lake, someone would hide something in this place?

You can see the edge of this place at a glance, and it seems that there are no conditions for hiding things at all, but because of this, people will give up when they look at it. What's there to see in an empty place? Even more, no one would have thought that the good stuff is really hidden here.

No one can think of it all at once, which is already a sufficient advantage. Besides, this place also meets the second condition Wang Sheng said, it's safe enough.

If she hadn't experienced it herself, even if her most trusted subordinate suddenly ran over and told her that someone was carrying another person and ran across a lava lake, the female boss would definitely wait for the subordinate to finish speaking, and then give him a solid slap in the face.

You have to make up stories that are plausible, right? Running across a lava lake? Wouldn't jumping into the lava directly be swallowed by the lava?

On this point, the female boss and many people on Earth made an obvious cognitive error. In some films on Earth, whether it's the Terminator jumping into molten steel or Gollum jumping into volcanic lava, they slowly sink and are swallowed by the lava or molten iron, but that's not the case. If the Terminator is just a steel skeleton, it might be possible, but Gollum would definitely only burn to ashes above the lava, just like the guards who were burned to death by the earth fire veins.

Since no one can think of it, then outsiders definitely wouldn't dare to risk their lives to run across the lava lake. Especially after Wang Sheng deliberately threw wooden sticks, stones, and daggers, all of which melted and burned in the lava, the guards were prejudiced and no one could have imagined that Wang Sheng could rush over.

When they saw Wang Sheng rushing over, they had no chance to go over again. Wang Sheng would use all means to prevent them from running over. Moreover, Wang Sheng didn't need to spend much effort, just let them stay on the lava for a few more seconds.

From this point of view, this place is safe enough. Moreover, since that alchemy sect has been using the earth fire veins for alchemy for so long, they must have figured out the characteristics of the earth fire veins. Maybe someone also knew that the lava lake could be run across, so hiding things here would be logical.

However, this place is empty. Could it be that they dug a hole below to hide the sect's inheritance? The female boss couldn't help but scan downwards, wanting to see which piece of ground was different, so as to find the real sect secret treasure.

After looking at it for a few times, she couldn't see any difference. The female boss simply stood up, and then walked from this end to that end, almost looking inch by inch to see if there was anything abnormal on the ground. She would also stomp her feet every few steps to listen to whether there was a hollow below.

This scene directly stunned Wang Sheng, who stared blankly at the female boss walking and jumping there.

After a while, the female boss noticed Wang Sheng's gaze. Plus, she hadn't found anything herself, so she walked back to Wang Sheng a little embarrassed, and leaned against Wang Sheng again. With such a smart guy like Wang Sheng, why should she waste her own time?

Anyway, she's wearing a protective suit, so it doesn't matter if she sits on the ground. She's used to sitting on tree stumps and grass in the Thousand Desolation Land. However, the female boss leaned on Wang Sheng so naturally, but she didn't even realize it herself.

Maybe because Wang Sheng had hugged the female boss before, and it was still a life-saving grace, the female boss was psychologically completely undefended against Wang Sheng. The action of leaning on Wang Sheng was so natural that Wang Sheng could even feel the softness and elasticity of her body.

"You said, back then they didn't have the protection you're wearing, how did they run over?" After the female boss sat down, she leaned against Wang Sheng and asked curiously. She was very curious about this question.

"Who said they ran over?" Wang Sheng laughed. The female boss sometimes thinks so far ahead, she even wants to figure out what happened hundreds of years ago.

"Didn't they?" The female boss was stunned. If the alchemists five hundred years ago had never crossed the lava lake, how could the things be hidden over here?

"If it were you, before you saw me running across, would you dare to jump in here?" Wang Sheng raised his chin, gesturing to the lava lake in front.

"I wouldn't dare!" The female boss shook her head directly: "Even if I saw you running across, I wouldn't dare to run."

"Then why would you think that someone five hundred years ago would dare to run over?" Wang Sheng asked with a smile, "Besides, even if you learn from me, you may not be able to run across."

Running on lava also requires skill and knowledge, it's not just about being fast. In addition to being fast and minimizing contact time with the lava, you must first look for those red areas. Compared to the bright areas, the red areas have lower temperatures. Secondly, you have to keep adding water to instantly vaporize the water and take away a lot of heat. In addition, you have to be well protected so that you don't ignite your clothes.

The guard who didn't rush over made these mistakes. He was blocked by Wang Sheng for at most two seconds and his whole body was on fire. Wang Sheng didn't think that the alchemists five hundred years ago had this kind of courage and knowledge.

"If they didn't come over, how could they hide things over here?" The female boss asked confidently, "You said it yourself, this place is suitable for hiding things."

Wang Sheng directly covered his eyes with his hands, slapping his forehead. The female boss seems like such a smart person, how did she suddenly become so stupid?

"Look at this place, it's bare and almost a complete piece. How could there be anything hidden underground?" Wang Sheng decided not to keep her in suspense and tell the female boss the answer.

The female boss looked around, and it was indeed the case. The flat ground they were on seemed to be a complete piece of cooled lava. In that case, it would probably be difficult to hide things underground. But if it's not underground, could it be in the sky? Thinking of this, the female boss looked up, wondering if it was hidden on the side or above, since this was the edge of the underground space.

Wang Sheng completely ignored the female boss's actions, and casually picked up a fist-sized stone from his side and held it in his hand.

"There's no need to dig holes or grottoes, and there's no need to risk your life to run over from the earth fire veins." Wang Sheng gave the answer: "Just put the things in the storage ring and then throw them over from there. Such a short distance, it's easy, right?"
