With a "bang" sound, the dungeon door closed again.
Xiaotian couldn't wait to pull Tang Zixuan and urged: "Look, look, look what's written?"
Tang Zixuan was also very curious. He lit up the fire fold, and finally there was a glimmer of light in the dark dungeon. Although the range of illumination was very limited, it was still no problem to see the letter clearly.
About to unfold the letter, Gu Wenyu also moved forward. Although Xiaotian was illiterate, he also moved forward out of strong curiosity.
The three heads were put together, and there were a few lines of beautiful small words on the letter paper. Tang Zixuan read it out softly: "I am Ying'er. Now Uncle Qi has obtained the consent of several elders and wants to sacrifice you to the mountain god. Chief of the clan.
Grandpa is under house arrest and cannot help you for the time being, but the good news is that it will take three days to prepare for the sacrifice ceremony. I will come to rescue you as soon as possible. Uncle Ye is a good person, you can trust him."
"It's Ying'er, she's coming to save us!" Xiaotian jumped up happily.
Tang Zixuan is not so optimistic. Even the patriarch is under house arrest. How can Ying'er save people?
Gu Wenyu is a more eclectic type. She is not too optimistic, but she still has hope for the rescue. She took the letter and read it again and asked: "Uncle Ye is the person who just delivered the meal to us, right?"
Xiaotian immediately agreed: "It should be so, otherwise why would he bring the letter for us and give us the fire certificate?"
Gu Wenyu took the fire folder and looked at the iron railings. She could see that there were runes densely covered on them. She asked, "Then, do we still study these runes?"
Tang Zixuan took the fire certificate and said, "Let me take a look." As he said that, he began to examine it carefully. Even if Ying'er said that he was coming to save them, they couldn't do nothing.
Now that Huozhezi has temporarily solved the lighting problem, Tang Zixuan plans to take a closer look at this formation.
Ying'er is thinking of a way, and they can continue to crack the formation, a two-pronged approach. If Ying'er fails, they still have a chance to save themselves.
Gu Wenyu had a sudden idea and added a strengthening buff to Huo Zhezi. Unexpectedly, it actually had an effect.
The fire light suddenly became brighter, and the fire fold became larger with a "shua" sound. It should be able to be used for lighting for a longer time.
Gu Wenyu couldn't help but sigh, Xiaohua's skill is really useful. Logically speaking, she shouldn't be a beggar. She doesn't know if she has been too dependent on Xiaotian since she was a child, and she didn't realize her ability to awaken at all.
Xiaotian couldn't help at the moment, so he took advantage of the little light and divided the dishes on the plate into three rice bowls, so that he would not be able to see the dishes when eating later. Fortunately, these bowls were all
It's big enough, and the portions of the dishes are not large. Otherwise, the way Xiaotian divides the dishes, all the dishes will be spilled on the floor.
Just when Xiaotian was playing with his rice bowl, he suddenly poked something hard. He opened it and saw that it was a small jar of nectar.
Xiaotian immediately understood that this was for Honghong. Honghong, who was in a coma, could not eat these meals. Yinger must have been afraid that Honghong would be hungry, so she specially prepared a small jar of nectar.
Xiaotian opened his red mouth, fed the nectar in, and handed the rice bowl to Tang Zixuan and Gu Wenyu.
In order to save light, Tang Zixuan extinguished the fire while eating.
After the three of them had eaten, Tang Zixuan continued to study formations, while Xiaotian and Gu Wenyu began to practice breathing techniques. There was nothing else to do in the dungeon, and the two of them practiced almost exclusively except sleeping.
Suddenly, Gu Wenyu, who was closing her eyes and breathing out, felt something furry brush against her hand.
"Ah!" Gu Wenyu was startled at first and bounced up on the spot. Then he remembered that the person who seemed to be sleeping next to him was Honghong.
"What's wrong?" Xiaotian and Tang Zixuan asked at the same time.
It happened that Tang Zixuan didn't light the book at this moment, and he didn't know whether he was practicing or meditating. It was dark again in the dungeon, and Gu Wenyu was not sure what it was just now.
"Honghong?" Gu Wenyu called out tentatively.
"Chirp, chirp~" A faint voice sounded in the darkness.
The voice came from exactly where Hong Hong was. Gu Wenyu crouched down and groped around, and at the same time asked, "Hong Hong, are you awake?"
"Chirp, chirp~" was another response.
Tang Zixuan hurriedly lit the fire fold, not caring about wasting it at this time.
Under the light of the fire, the little fox was wagging its tail weakly, its ears drooped, its whole body curled up into a ball, and seemed to be trembling slightly. It was probably that when it woke up, it only saw pitch black, and it lost its soul power.
The perception of the outside world becomes weaker, so we become afraid.
Gu Wenyu held Honghong in his arms and whispered, "Don't be afraid, we are all here."
"Ziujiu~" Honghong looked up after hearing this. Tang Zixuan put the Huozhezi in front of everyone one by one, so that Honghong could identify the people around him, and then put out the Huozhezi again.
As soon as the fire went out, Honghong was immediately frightened again, and he buried his head in Gu Wenyu's arms.
"It's okay, don't be afraid, it's just that we are in the dungeon of the Spirit Clan now, so there is no light." Gu Wenyu gently stroked Hong Hong's back.
"Tweet?" Honghong was even more confused when she heard this. How could such a good person come to the dungeon of the Elf clan?
Gu Wenyu simply told Honghong the cause and effect of the incident. After hearing this, the little guy screamed in anger, but he was too weak to move around on his own for a while. If he could speak now, he would probably
Started to curse.
"Are you angry or not? Your friend is trying to save us. Don't tell me, you have a really good eye for making friends. You know that something cannot be done but you still stand up for it. It's amazing!
You are worthy of being my Uncle Fox’s friend!” Gu Wenyu praised Honghong in various ways while helping Honghong smooth her hair.
"Tweet~" Honghong was quite proud when she heard this. She wasn't so angry for a while, and she was so comfortable that she stretched out.
After soothing the arrogant little fox, the dungeon became quiet again.
This time, Gu Wenyu felt that a long time had passed, and his stomach was already growling with hunger, but no one came to deliver food.
I don’t know if it’s because they stayed in the dungeon for so long that their concept of time is confused, or if it’s just that a really long time has passed.
Being in the dark all the time, it is indeed difficult to tell the time, but the hunger is real.
"Chirp chirp~" Honghong was also very hungry. None of the three of them made a sound, but it was Honghong who woke up first.
Xiaotian also touched his stomach and said, "I'm so hungry..."
"Why hasn't anyone come to deliver the meal this time? It feels like a day has passed. Is there something wrong with my feelings?" Gu Wenyu expressed his doubts.
"Your feeling is correct." Tang Zixuan analyzed: "You should fast before offering sacrifices."
Xiaotian was shocked, "You mean, no one will come to deliver food these days?"
"Chirp, chirp, chirp!" Hong Hong clenched her fists angrily.
"I'm afraid so." Tang Zixuan licked his chapped lips and sighed. Not having food was fine, but not having water was really sad.
