Seeing Mei Jiangxue hiding her face and smiling softly, Lin Yan knew that the adjustment of the atmosphere just now had an effect. At least, the two of them are not as strange as they were at first. And when faced with a trapped situation, they are what they need.
Only by not being suspicious and working together can we solve difficulties.
"Miss Jiangxue, you said before that this blue-eyed blood ape has reached the realm of mortal transformation. Can it come in? Will it collapse this place with force?"
Lin Yan then took the time to ask the questions he was concerned about. After all, time is precious now. If you grasp the situation clearly as soon as possible, you can free up more time to practice and better deal with the blue-eyed blood ape.
"It has about the strength of the second level of Mortal Realm. It cannot yet master supernatural powers and cannot change its body size at will. Moreover, the stone walls on both sides of the corridor are very thick. Even if part of it is smashed by it, it will not collapse."
"Well, that's good," Lin Yan nodded, and then asked a big question: "By the way, how come there is such a large cave connected to the side wall of the corridor?"
"I don't know either."
Mei Jiangxue showed a puzzled expression. Obviously, she had been thinking about this issue during the two days she came here.
"At that time, I followed everyone in the sect to Niutoushan, and the spirit of goblins appeared. Therefore, my uncle and the masters of other sects immediately went to snatch the spirit of goblins. I stayed on the outside of the mountain, but happened to be on the outside of the mountain.
While wandering around, I sensed the aura of the seal.
I couldn't hold back my curiosity, so I entered the cave, but encountered a green-scaled python. After a fierce battle, I was seriously injured. Fortunately, I accidentally discovered the secret on the side wall, and I was able to kill the python in the cave.
And got a place to recuperate."
"However, after two days of observation, I found that there is still something strange here, and it is not just a cave." Mei Jiangxue said afterwards.
Lin Yan was carefully looking at the layout inside at this moment. Hearing what Mei Jiangxue said, he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart. He pointed to a place that he had paid special attention to and said, "Is it because of that sword?"
Where Lin Yan was pointing was a raised sword hilt on the stone wall. The sword itself had no idea how long it was. It was almost completely inserted into the stone wall, leaving only a silver hilt exposed. In such a place, a sword appeared.
The sword sinking into the stone wall is a strange thing in itself.
"But I still don't understand. Didn't the person who set up the seal set up a layer of invisible binding force on the entrance of the tunnel? Moreover, that could firmly seal the ferocious beast, so why would it be in this cave?
Adding a weird sword, could it be that there are more than just ferocious beasts sealed here?"
Mei Jiangxue looked at Lin Yan with admiration, seeming a little surprised that this young man with very low strength had such a flexible mind and could guess the key points of this matter.
"The cave we are in now can be said to be another independent sealed place. This sword is the key to breaking the seal, equivalent to a key, but I dare not pull out this sword rashly, maybe the long sword
What is being suppressed is an incomparable evil."
Lin Yan didn't answer, and he and Mei Jiangxue stared at the silver sword hilt on the stone wall. For a long time, Lin Yan's expression became fixed, and he stepped over the body of the green-scaled python and walked straight towards the sword hilt.
"Lin Yan, what are you going to do?" Mei Jiangxue was shocked and said coldly: "This sword cannot be drawn!"
But Lin Yan had already approached the stone wall, holding the hilt of the sword tightly with his right hand, taking a long breath, and suddenly pulled it outward!
The sword didn't move at all.
Mei Jiangxue arrived at this time and stopped in front of Lin Yan. She was a little angry at Lin Yan's recklessness just now. She said coldly with frost on her face: "Lin Yan, I hope you understand that you are not the only one here."
, don’t let me lose my life because of your recklessness.”
The atmosphere in the venue suddenly became cold.
Lin Yan seemed to have forgotten that Mei Jiangxue was born with aloofness and coldness. A woman like this is always used to fighting alone. She doesn't like other people's actions to affect her, and she doesn't allow other people's actions to hurt her.
Own.
But Lin Yan still smiled and explained: "Miss Jiangxue, if this sword is really the key to the unknown sealed place, then naturally it will not be easily pulled out, and if it can be easily pulled out, it proves that
The seal has been loosened and something dangerous is about to happen, or this sword is just a decoration."
Seeing Mei Jiangxue still angry, Lin Yan continued to express his opinion: "In this case, there is no danger in drawing the sword itself. The fact that the sword has not been drawn out means that this sealed place is inside the cave, at least for now.
It’s safe and nothing dangerous will happen.”
Mei Jiangxue already understood Lin Yan's purpose of doing this, but as arrogant and noble as she was, she would not act like a little girl, looking at Lin Yan with admiration, clapping her hands and shouting: "Brother Lin Yan, you are great, think about things."
So comprehensive." Mei Jiangxue just nodded simply and naturally.
"Since we are trapped in the cave, the first thing we need to do is to find out whether the cave is safe or not. This is very important." Lin Yan finally wanted to reveal the purpose of drawing his sword rashly.
"Huh!" Mei Jiangxue thought bitterly in her heart like a angry little girl: "He just acted on his own without consulting me beforehand, as if he is the master here."
Qi returned to Qi, but Mei Jiangxue didn't really mean to blame Lin Yan.
Perhaps, even Mei Jiangxue herself didn't know it. After Lin Yan entered the cave, she was influenced by Lin Yan's very assertive behavior, and she subconsciously recognized Lin Yan's dominant position among the two.
This is not a good start for Mei Jiangxue, who is extremely aloof by nature and is used to treating others with indifference.
Fortunately, Lin Yan had no plans to have anything happen to Mei Jiangxue. He just wanted to kill the Blue Eyed Blood Ape and escape from this damn corridor.
"Miss Jiangxue, have you not eaten for two days?" Lin Yan frowned and said as he saw that there were no food scraps on the ground and that the only things that belonged to Mei Jiangxue were a few small porcelain bottles and a dexterous rapier.
"Well, there is an underground stream at the end of the cave. I can drink water."
"Just drinking water is not enough," Lin Yan looked at the clear stream. "Now that we are facing such a dangerous situation, we must maintain our physical strength. Moreover, if you want to recover from your injuries faster, you must replenish your strength."
Adequate nutrition.”
Mei Jiangxue seemed to be really slowly adapting to Lin Yan's dominant position. She first nodded in agreement with what Lin Yan said, and then asked: "Do you have a way to get food?"
Lin Yan didn't seem to have any objection to the cold aura that Mei Jiangxue naturally exuded. Regardless of whether Mei Jiangxue agreed or not, he directly picked up the delicate sword on the ground and walked to the body of the green-scaled python.
Said: "Isn't this just ready-made food?"
"That's it?" Looking at the ugly and ferocious python corpse, Mei Jiangxue resisted in her heart and subconsciously took a step back. It seemed that the further away from the python, the better, wishing she could never see the python again. Mei Jiangxue said no more
Ao Ao is always a seventeen-year-old woman. It is normal to like to be clean and hate to be dirty.
"That's it." Lin Yan smiled slightly, found the python's Dantian, inserted the rapier skillfully, cut open the hard flesh with force, fiddled with it for a while, and finally pried out a fist-sized piece that glowed with a faint cyan light.
of inner elixir.
The evil spirit and strong winds were all over the corridor, and perhaps because of the extraordinary nature of the giant green-scaled python, a large gash was opened in the python's abdomen, but only a little bit of blood was left, and the smell of blood soon spread with the wind.
Dissipated.
"Have you ever killed a ferocious beast before and obtained the inner elixir?" Mei Jiangxue watched Lin Yan complete the entire set of dissection movements so skillfully that she couldn't help but ask in surprise.
"I have killed pigs and sheep before." Lin Yan said easily as he recalled what he had done as a handyman in the Xia Mansion.
"Oh," Mei Jiangxue took a few steps forward, looked at the inner elixir in Lin Yan's hand with some curiosity, and asked tentatively: "Are you asking me to eat it alive?"
"no."
Mei Jiangxue showed an expression of relief. Unexpectedly, Lin Yan immediately laughed and said: "It's not eating, it's swallowing it alive."
After that, Lin Yan picked up the rapier and used his vitality, first split the inner elixir into two, and then chopped half of it into strawberry-sized pieces, "One small piece a day, the giant python's inner elixir contains the heaven and earth."
The essence is very helpful in recovering from your injury." Lin Yan picked up one of the pieces and handed it to Mei Jiangxue.
"If you want to eat it yourself, I don't care about this stuff." Mei Jiangxue didn't even look at the inner elixir, but stared at Lin Yan angrily. The faint smile at the corner of her mouth had long since disappeared, and was replaced by a smile.
A cold look.
"Miss Jiangxue, don't act out of emotion." Lin Yan didn't expect that Mei Jiangxue's aloofness would sometimes turn into a princess-like willfulness. But at this moment, it was the maid's job to persuade the princess to take medicine. He just
From the perspective of an ally, I consider my own interests for Mei Jiangxue.
"The inner elixir can help you recover from your injuries. We may face some dangers in the future, and we need to stay healthy at all times. Moreover, people in the world cannot worry too much. It's now time. In order to survive, let alone swallow the inner elixir alive.
You can even eat snake meat raw."
Mei Jiangxue looked at Lin Yan like a monster. After a long time, she nodded and admitted that Lin Yan's words were right. She took the inner elixir and looked at the small piece with faint bloodshot eyes. Mei Jiangxue's heart skipped a beat.
He quickly threw the small piece of inner elixir into his mouth, then refused to let the small piece with a unique fishy smell stay in his mouth for a moment, and swallowed it hard with his eyes closed.
As if she had finished something extremely difficult, Mei Jiangxue opened her eyes, looked at Lin Yan and said softly: "Thank you."
Lin Yan smiled, put the remaining small pieces into an empty porcelain bottle, handed it to Mei Jiangxue, pointed at the giant python and said, "We can roast the snake meat and eat it."
The word "roasted" immediately made Mei Jiangxue forget the strange bitter and fishy taste of the inner alchemy, and curiously asked: "How to eat it roasted?"
"The inner elixir is the source of energy of the blue-scaled python. It contains the essence of life. If ignited, it can release a large amount of heat and can last for a long time." Lin Yan said as he picked up two pieces from the ground.
Stone, tore off one of his sleeves and found some dead moss, kept hitting the two stones, letting the sparks slowly ignite the cloth strip, and finally threw half of the inner elixir into the flames.
Regarding taking the inner elixir to heal wounds and using the inner elixir to grill meat, these were all things the old servant did ten years ago when he took him to escape from Tiandi City to avoid the pursuit of the cold-blooded cavalry. Lin Yan was only doing it based on this memory now.
The thing was exactly as Lin Yan said. Even though the cloth and moss burned out quickly, after the inner alchemy was ignited, no flame came out, but a high temperature appeared, like a charcoal fire in winter, which immediately made the cold stone cave
There is a warm spring feeling.
Later, Lin Yan built a simple stove with stones, spread the cut snake meat on the rapier, placed the rapier on the stove, and baked it using the high temperature generated by the burning of the inner elixir.
After a while, the snake meat began to "sizzle" with tiny bubbles of oil, and an alluring fragrance suddenly filled the cave.
Mei Jiangxue stood aside, silently watching Lin Yan's movements, pursed her beautiful little cherry mouth, and had a warm smile on her face, as bright as a flower.
It turns out that Mei Jiangxue, who is cold and unkind, can also smile, and her smile is so beautiful.
Unfortunately, Lin Yan was immersed in roasting snake meat and didn't notice.
