Ancient Sword II: The Tracking of the Fierce Mountain

Chapter 47: Lava

A group of people walked in the aisle decorated with ever-burning lights. Although the surroundings were very quiet, they felt a burning sensation for some reason. It was okay at first, but after the coolness passed, it was only a little stuffy, but as the four of them walked forward, the stuffy feeling became more and more intense. In the end, Le Wuyi could be said to be wiping the hot sweat from his forehead while walking: "Meow meow, why is it so hot?"

Xia Yi also frowned. Although he wasn't sweating profusely, the wetness in his palms made him extremely uncomfortable.

The previous icy cold had long since disappeared, and the increasingly unbearable heat was the only feeling that everyone felt at this moment.

The mountain wall in front was glowing red, flickering bright and dark, appearing and disappearing from time to time, Xie Yi and Shen Ye looked at each other, it was like the color of fire, what we saw earlier was a mountain of knives, so in front, could it be a sea of ​​flames?

The passage finally came to an end, and the moment Xie Yi and Shen Ye stepped out of the passage, the guesses of Xie Yi and Shen Ye were confirmed.

"It really is... a sea of ​​fire..."

The four of them were standing on the steep mountain wall at this time. Looking up, there was nothing to climb on the smooth mountain wall. Looking to the side, they could see the extremely narrow path. It is tumbling flaming red lava, the fire is more dazzling than the sunlight, and bubbles burst from time to time in the wavy turbulent fire flow, ejecting countless sparks, which are extremely conspicuous in the reddish-yellow lava .

The suffocating feeling of suffocation came oncoming, and even the cheeks were so hot, not to mention the red mountain wall. Fortunately, they were standing at a higher place at this time. If it was below, just that and the red-hot iron There is no difference in the mountain wall, Le Wuyi feels that walking on it can definitely roast human flesh directly.

Xie Yi raised his hand, slightly blocking the too dazzling fire light: "Mountain of knives, sea of ​​fire, could it be that the owner here wants to reproduce the scene of hell?" First, the mountain of knives and then the sea of ​​fire, then will there be charcoal pits, copper woks and the like after that? What kind of "punishment" is waiting for them?

Le Wuyi sweated again: "Master, I think such a small hill is a volcano, which is more weird. No, it's weird that there is such an exaggerated magma under such a mountain, right?" The group of tombs is placed on this volcano. Aren't they afraid of the day when the volcano erupts?In other words, the ancestors of the Tujia knew it was a volcano, so why did they place graves here?

"Maybe this is an extinct volcano," Xia Yi said, "If the magma is hot enough but won't erupt one day, then the lava can not only protect the tomb, but also deter outsiders. He Le Instead of doing it."

Xie Yi nodded and said with a smile: "Yi is right." He looked at the extremely narrow and dangerous path, "It can really shock people's hearts."

There is boiling magma under the feet, and beside him is a path that can only be moved with one foot. If you accidentally fall down while walking on this path, you can only end up dead.

"But as long as there is a road, people's greed cannot be stopped," Shen Ye said suddenly, "There will always be people who walk down because of unwillingness." He stretched out his hand, but pointed at a sharp rock protruding in the distance. The rock stood upright in the lava, but it was not swallowed by the magma. On top of the jet-black lines, there were scorched gray amputated limbs—that was a skeleton that had been repeatedly bitten by the flames. The skeleton stays on top.

It is also fortunate that the position of the skeleton is relatively high, otherwise, perhaps the dead bones would not remain.

Xie Yi sighed and said nothing more, while Shen Ye just said casually, although the road ahead is dangerous, they will not retreat.

In this situation where there is no way up or down, there is no other choice except the narrow and almost harsh path at the foot.Xie Yi wanted to be the first to step forward, but after seeing Shen Ye's meaningful glance, although he hesitated, he finally took a half step back with a wry smile. He has never been able to refuse Master's orders.

Although the trail looks extremely narrow, but walking forward, as long as you walk slowly and calmly, it will not appear to be stretched. However, the rolling lava under your feet is always a reminder of danger, and your body should keep your balance and cling to it. Shanbi, maintaining this mentality will actually take some mental effort.

Xie Yi glanced at Le Wuyi beside him. Although the other party's expression was a little nervous, his movements were not irritating. In front of him, Shen Ye was always synonymous with being calm and calm, and every step he took was extremely appropriate.

Obviously, the danger under their feet was extremely dangerous, but the four of them were all moving smoothly, moving forward at a constant speed one after the other. It was only when they walked halfway and approached the place where the skeleton Shen Ye had discovered earlier that they realized something was wrong.

"Master, that skeleton...is it too far away?"

They had stood far and sideways before, so they didn't see it clearly. It wasn't until they got closer that they realized that the skeleton was too far away, and it was almost in the middle of the lava. If it fell from the mountain wall Yes, why did it fall there?

But it turns out that although the lava pool is not so wide that it can't be seen at a glance, it is still extremely wide, and the skeleton is in the middle of the lava.If a person falls from the mountain wall at the edge of the lava, he will definitely roll directly into the magma and his bones will not survive, instead of jumping tens of meters away with springs installed under his feet, no, this is a narrow path where it is difficult to get a foothold , It is difficult for people to put in their strength, and they will definitely not be able to jump that far.

Before Xie Yi opened his mouth, Shen Ye discovered something was wrong. He couldn't help but look up, but there were jagged rocks like stalactites intertwined with each other, and it didn't look like there would be a passage, so, Didn't that person fall from above?

The four couldn't help but stopped, Xie Yi said, "Master?"

Shen Ye thought for a while, and finally said: "Let's go first." If it has nothing to do with the real exit, they don't need to care about it.

Xie Yi smiled gently when he heard the words: "Yes."

Le Wuyi, who was behind the two of them, kept biting his lips tightly, knowing that compared to the master and grand master who talked and laughed freely, he really had no intention and power to take care of other things.

Be careful, be careful, be careful... Le Wuyi tells himself this every step of the way, which means that he will definitely be more stable from now on, and will never be impetuous again.

"Wuyi," Xia Yi saw Le Wuyi's nervousness in his eyes, and couldn't help comforting him, "It's okay, don't be nervous."

Le Wuyi turned his head and gave him a bitter smile, how could he not be nervous.

Seeing this, Xia Yi shook his head helplessly: "Just don't think too much."

Facing Xia Yize who is also calm and self-sufficient, Le Wuyi tragically discovers that he is indeed the most ordinary of the four.But he obviously forgot that most people don't even have the courage to walk on this kind of path, let alone walk step by step. You know, this kind of feeling of walking directly on death and maybe dying in the next moment is too much. Thrilling.

The trail meanders forward, leading to an unknown distance along the mountain wall, and the lava pool under the feet still exudes suffocating scorching heat. When Le Wuyi suspects that the soles of his feet are sweating and will start to slip, But seeing Xie Yi coming across from him, he said to him who was sweating hot and cold together: "It's the same, take it easy."

Although Le Wuyi really wanted to say yes, but after a lot of hard work, his throat was so heavy that he could only squeeze a smile out. Seeing this, Xie Yi sighed: "Silly boy, thank you for your hard work." He reached out and touched Le Wuyi's head.

Le Wuyi blinked, wait, why is Master's face so close?Stand opposite? !It wasn't until this time that he belatedly realized that Xie Yi was standing so close, it was a little strangely close.

Le Wuyi couldn't help but turned his head and looked around, only to realize that they had come to a corner, which was a sharp turn, so the two mountain walls facing the lava were only very close here, so close to the slits under their feet. They almost overlapped.

Through the thumb-sized slit, one could see the golden red flame burning at the bottom. This unexpected corner gave them a place to rest.

Le Wuyi was stunned at first, and then he was greatly relieved. He was nervous all the way and didn't even notice when he got here.As soon as he relaxed in his heart, Le Wuyi's tense body collapsed in the next moment, and he sat down on the ground with a posture that he would never get up again, but it was just a look, and taking the time to rest is what he should do at this time .

After Xie Yi, Xia Yi also stretched out his hand and rubbed Le Wuyi's head, and then sat down with him. Le Wuyi just smiled at this, and then leaned his head on the other's shoulder. He kept looking down at his feet, his neck was so stiff that it didn't feel like his own.

Although this corner is not big, there is still room for the four of them to sit down. Xie Yi turned to Shen Ye with a calm face: "Master, let's rest for a while too."

Shen Ye glanced at Le Wuyi and Xia Yize who were leaning on one side, raised his eyebrows slightly, and sat down without Xie Yi's expectation, but when Xie Yi's hand was pulled, he understood why the teacher Zunhui is so straightforward.

Shen Ye dragged Xie Yi directly into his arms as it should be. Although this made the space a bit bigger, but looking at the dumbfounded Le Wuyi and Xia Yize, who was as calm as Xie Yi was, he still blushed. A face: "Master!"

Shen Ye calmly raised his head and glanced at Le Wuyi, Le Wuyi immediately lowered his head with a tingling sensation. As for Xia Yi, he also smiled very wittily and looked away.

Xie Yi saw that he couldn't get out of Shen Ye's embrace, so he lowered his voice and said, "Master!" He was not used to being in front of Wu Yi and Yi Ze.

Unexpectedly, Shen Ye just closed his eyes: "After walking all the way, let me rest for a while."

Xie Yi was full of helplessness and disapproval, if he was really tired, he should have a good rest, so wouldn't Master be even more tired?

It's a pity that once Shen Ye made a decision, he would never change it. What's more, this is also an opportunity for him to declare his sovereignty. Seeing Xie Yi and Le Wuyi getting closer all the way (not), although he knew that he was a bit unreasonable, but such a I feel much more comfortable now, so why not do it?

As for Le Wuyi, this can be regarded as telling this dull disciple Sun Yi face to face that he and Xie Yi are together.

But what Shen Ye overlooked was that no matter how dull Le Wuyi is, he is not stupid. Since Xie Yi woke up, in the interaction between Shen Ye and Xie Yi and Xia Yize's reminder, how could Le Wuyi ignore his own The relationship between the master and the Grand Master, however, just because he discovered it doesn't mean that he will remember that he is a light bulb, and he is the most ignorant and powerful light bulb in Shen Ye's eyes.

Xie Yi blushed and struggled and sat down, while Le Wuyi on the opposite side also struggled with a face that looked up and down, embarrassed master and angry grand master, please forgive me.

Xia Yi rubbed Le Wuyi's head again with a funny face: "Go to sleep for a while." This person has become sensitive now.

The troubled Le Wuyi's eyes lit up when he heard the words, that's right, wouldn't all the problems be solved by pretending to be asleep?As expected of Yi Ze, he smiled gratefully and immediately closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Seeing this, Xie Yi didn't see any relief on his face but became more and more uncomfortable. He hesitated for a moment, approached Shen Ye and said in a low voice, "Master, I'd better rely on you to rest." He also knew that he wanted to be alone. Sitting is impossible, so we can only settle for the next best thing.

I don't want Shen Ye to remain unmoved.

Xie Yi did not give up, and continued: "Master, I..."

This time before he finished speaking, Shen Ye opened his eyes. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, stretched out his hand and pulled Xie Yi closer, and said in a low voice, "I don't mind if you get closer, huh?"

"..." Xie Yi opened his mouth in astonishment, and nodded quickly before Shen Ye pressed his lips together. Facing Shen Ye's satisfied and even successful smile, he sat in Shen Ye's arms with a blushing face after all. , never speak again.
