Chapter 80
Cheng Nuo clenched his fists tightly, not knowing what to say for a while, his heart was slightly sour.
Bai Rui still looked extremely calm, but strangely, he felt Bai Rui’s uneasiness. He could understand Bai Rui’s thoughts somewhat, but it was impossible for him to let Bai Rui go anymore, this was absolute.
f.u.c.k, if you want to regret it, it’s probably that you had an ulterior relationship with a minor. You can wait a little longer…
After a long time, he slowly walked over and held Bai Rui in his arms, and he could feel Bai Rui’s body trembling.
He whispered in Bai Rui’s ear: “If there is any problem after going out, let’s try to face it together.”
Bai Rui quickly hugged him in his arms, and his stiff body finally relaxed.
Cheng Nuo stroked his hair, feeling a p.r.i.c.kly pain in his heart. Bai Rui is not yet seventeen, he is a boy in modern times.
He didn’t even know what was so good about him that made both Bai Rui and Liu Guang care so much. They were cautious in the relationship and didn’t have the slightest sense of security…
Cheng Nuo carried the two jars of fruit wine brewed to meet Tao Mo. The previous brewed wine had failed, but this time it was finally successful. The color of the wine is reddish, and the taste is somewhat similar to wine. Tao Mo had an teacher-student relationship with him, and since he was about to leave, he had to say goodbye no matter what.
Tao Mo really rejoiced when he saw it, took a sip carefully, and admired as he drank: “Although you are a little stupid with poor apt.i.tude, you still have some talent for making wine. It’s a pity. That silver-haired kid is too cunning!”
Cheng Nuo was embarra.s.sed for a moment. Someone actually used “cunning” to describe Bai Rui.In his opinion, Bai Rui and Liu Guang both have extremely simple temperaments; whoever treats them well is really good. For those they don’t like, they will never please and flatter.
However, he originally thought that Tao Mo’s temperament was straightforward and bold, but he didn’t expect Tao Mo to lie to him that he didn’t know before knowing the way to leave… Isn’t Tao Mo the cunning one?
He smiled and said, “Tao Mo, thank you!”
Although the alcohol content of the wine was a little lower, Tao Mo was still drunk after drinking a few bowls. He lay reclining on the ground with his head in his hands and smiled: “You don’t have to thank me. I would like to advise you to stay. If you want to go out, the chance of survival is only a small one and a half. Are you still so persistent?”
Cheng Nuo was dumbfounded. But Bai Rui only said that there was danger, did he actually want to take such a big risk?
Looking at his expression, Tao Mo knew that Bai Rui hadn’t said everything, so he explained it with a smile, and Cheng Nuo’s mood became heavier and heavier when he heard it.
When he returned to the cave, he was still in a daze, holding the last thing Tao Mo gave him in his arms. Although he and Tao Mo were not considered to have a deep relationship, after all, they have been together for a short time, and they still felt a little melancholy.
Tao Mo said that his lifespan was less than a hundred years old, and by then this sealed land will collapse and disappear with his death. Almost all of his cultivation methods were created by himself. Although Cheng Nuo was far from his ideal disciple, he just pa.s.sed on the last third stage of cultivation methods to him, and hoped that he would not die on the way out.
Although there was nothing to clean up, Cheng Nuo still took a look at this place again. Almost everything was made by him and Bai Rui. Furniture, stove, utensils… There was also a small tree house on a big tree outside. Sometimes he and Bai Rui lay there and smelled the fresh smell of the trees, and their restless mood would immediately calm down.
Bai Rui sat on the tree wearing the small leather jacket made by Cheng Nuo, his usually scattered long silver hair was rarely tied up behind his head, and he seemed to be ready.
Cheng Nuo smiled at him, his eyes gradually firmed up.
Since it’s a risk, let’s try it. Anyway, his luck has always been very good.
Maybe it would be better for him to be stronger, but considering Liu Guang’s temperament, it would be better for him to go out a day earlier.
To leave the place, one must first follow the ice snakes into their lairs. The diameter of an adult ice snake is one meter, so it is not difficult to crawl in. Bai Rui had already found one of the holes.
Cheng Nuo stuffed the Bi Feng into his chest. It obviously sensed the imminent danger, so it shrank its body and didn’t make a sound. Almost all the power in the sealed land was contained. This Bi Feng was usually weak and dependent on Cheng Nuo. Cheng Nuo decided to give it a famous name if it could get out safely.
Because the place he was going to was too dangerous, Bai Rui had already turned into a half-beast form, with sharp golden eyes shining in the dark, exuding a frightening and dangerous animal aura. Cheng Nuo followed him closely, helping Bai Rui hide his breath. It’s too narrow to fight in the snake hole, so they avoided it as much as they could.
Those snake holes are interconnected and deep underground, intertwined like spider webs. The more you go inside, the fishier the smell is. From time to time, you can see the remains of various animals and the huge snake skin that has been shed.
Cheng Nuo secretly picked up a few pieces and stuffed them into the storage bag. Snake slough is also a precious medicinal material. and these are likely to be useful when they go out. He could see things in the dark now, so walking in those deep snake lairs was not a problem.
At one point, Bai Rui stopped suddenly, the two held their breath, a huge ice snake slowly moved past in front of them, and those silver-gray scales could be clearly seen. Wherever it swam, a patch of frost had condensed.
There is a three-p.r.o.nged hole in front of it and he didn’t know which one lead to the place Tao Mo said.
Cheng Nuo squatted down, made a mark with a vine, and followed Bai Rui to one of them.
Looking back, it was already impossible to see the way where he came from, and there was no light at all. Cheng Nuo tried to calm himself, but still felt a little creeped out. The Bi Feng was also close to him, and its little body shook violently.
A gust of fishy wind and cold air came from behind, accompanied by a strange hissing sound. Cheng Nuo secretly screamed. He pressed his hand down, and a row of iron thorns had formed behind him.
With the increase of his strength, the plants produced by him were much more powerful than before.
The ice snake behind b.u.mped into it but failed to break it. It let out an irritable roar, shrank its neck and slammed it violently.
Bai Rui pulled Cheng Nuo and ran quickly. He was afraid that more and more ice snakes would be attracted. They could not fight.
Cheng Nuo’s feet were also much faster, and he kept setting obstacles behind him. The huge head of the ice snake had broken the iron thorns, and was entangled by a pile of vines, which made it even more furious. The dust above the cave rushed down.
Bai Rui’s intuition was keen, he had already sensed the sound of swimming in the caves on all sides.
“Be careful, ahead!” Cheng Nuo yelled in a low voice.
Bai Rui had already pounced on it, and the ice snake that he punched slammed into the stone wall hard, and the stones on top of its head fell down one after another. The snake was dizzy for a while, its body twitching violently, but it blocked the road, and the ice snake behind him was about to catch up!
Several vines stretched out from the stone wall, tying the snake firmly, barely freeing up a way to pa.s.s. Bai Rui was slightly surprised.
Cheng Nuo said with a low smile: “I have made a little progress during this time.” Although it could only tie the ice snake for a few seconds.
Bai Rui smiled at him, grabbed his hand and rushed over, Cheng Nuo felt that he was about to fly. When he reacted, the two of them had already landed at the tail of the snake, and the snake temporarily blocked the snake behind.
When they finally found the legendary ice snake swamp, both of them were panting and covered in dust.
Although the ice snake is an extremely cold thing, the ice snake swamp is a rolling fire magma.
This fiery magma flowed slowly like a red river, and several large and small ice snakes with white colors meander around it, forming a strange contrast between red and white, extreme cold and extreme heat.
The two walked carefully along the stone wall along the river, and finally saw the place where the magma erupted outwards.
Bai Rui whispered: “I’m afraid that Bai Zhi’s ice snake also came from here. Some ice snakes inadvertently pa.s.sed through the magma to the outside, and he got it.”
Cheng Nuo took a deep breath and nodded.
The temperature of the magma was too high, at least a few hundred degrees, and they have to protect themselves from being burned. The moment the magma sprayed into the sealed place, when it pa.s.sed through the gray mist, it would temporarily lose its ability due to the formation, and it would turn into ashes if it was not careful.
Cheng Nuo touched his body. He was wearing the protective clothing that Bai Rui made for him back then, and it should be able to protect him by then.
He nodded to Bai Rui and smiled, “I’m ready.”
The two jumped down and walked towards the eruption point, quietly waiting for the time for the next eruption.
While waiting for his body to rush towards the sky, Cheng Nuo felt that the scorching air under his body was about to explode.
Bai Rui was still in a half-beast state, tightly protecting him above.
A layer of gray mist rushed towards his face, Cheng Nuo held his breath, knowing that he and Bai Rui would lose their ability at this moment.
He gritted his teeth, pulled Bai Rui’s body in the air and turned to block him, and smiled in Bai Rui’s astonished eyes.
Can’t let Bai Rui get hurt because of him again…
The burning pain of his body was unbearable. Cheng Nuo opened his eyes in a daze and found that he was lying on Bi Feng’s back. The long-lost blue sky in the distance made him almost cry out. It’s not the dusty appearance of the sealed place.
But his nose and throat were sore, as if they were burnt out, and he couldn’t make a sound at all.
A bowl of water soon appeared in front of his eyes. Cheng Nuo looked over happily, his lips trembling slightly – they came out, and they were all alive!
Bai Rui’s face quickly appeared in front of his eyes, his lips tightly pressed together. Although his face was terribly gloomy, he acted very carefully, asking Cheng Nuo to lie on his lap and feed him water.
Cheng Nuo only felt pain in his back, b.u.t.tocks, and legs. It seemed that he was burned by the magma when he pa.s.sed through the gray mist—in fact, he felt that he was lucky that he didn’t die. He was so thirsty but he couldn’t drink water while lying down like this.
Bai Rui soon found out that he didn’t dare to touch those burnt places, so he turned Cheng Nuo over carefully, then drank it himself and fed it to him.
Although it hurt, Cheng Nuo’s face is still a little red, and now Bai Rui’s actions now were so disgusting…
But he was in a good mood, so he didn’t say anything, he swallowed it with difficulty, and his face was hot .
Bai Rui fed him a few mouthfuls seriously, then turned him over again, and said in a low voice, “Can you heal now?”
Cheng Nuo’s protective clothing was burned, and Bai Rui had already cleaned those for him. Clothes were cut away to keep them from sticking to the wound. So Cheng Nuo turned his head with difficulty, and saw that the clothes behind him had been cut off, and his horribly burned back, waist and b.u.t.tocks were exposed to the air, and he was embarra.s.sed.
He nodded hoa.r.s.ely, pretending to smile easily: “It will be fine in a few days, don’t worry.”
They shouldn’t meet anyone in the sky, otherwise it would be too embarra.s.sing.……
It is more difficult for the healer to treat his own injuries. Cheng Nuo had made several injury medicines by himself in the sealed land, and Bai Rui had already applied them for him.
Cheng Nuo endured the pain, and the energy elements in his body repaired themselves. Despite the pain, he was in a good mood. He lay on his lap in an ugly posture, and suddenly laughed: “That’s great, we are out.”
Bai Rui pursed his lips and looked at Cheng Nuo. This person looked silly with a smile, obviously in a good mood.
His mood was completely different. If this person turned into ashes before his eyes at that time… Just thinking about it, there was an unbearable sense of suffocation, but he couldn’t bear to say a word of reproach.
Cheng Nuo’s happy smile gradually infected him, and Bai Rui’s pursed lips also raised slightly: “Yeah, that’s great.”
Cheng Nuo looked at the hair on both sides, which had been burned it and was already curled up by the burn. He touched the back of his head carefully, and he couldn’t laugh or cry even more, the hair on the back was all in a ball! Fortunately, Bai Rui can still be so tender to him with this hairstyle!
He lay there motionless, asking Bai Rui to cut his hair. He felt that Bai Rui’s hands were very clever, and he was almost omnipotent in the sealed land, so he was relieved to hand over his hair to Bai Rui boldly. After Bai Rui carefully cut it for a long time, his expression seemed a little weird.
Cheng Nuo called Bai Rui over suspiciously. Bai Rui’s eyes were very bright, and could definitely be used as a mirror when he got close.
Those bright golden eyes clearly reflected his current appearance, and his hair was as if a dog had chewed it, uneven, he couldn’t even look at it! He looked like an idiot…
He looked at Bai Rui speechlessly. Bai Rui patted his head and said in comfort: “Actually, it’s okay.”
