dream order

Chapter 23

With the help of Chu Cang, Zi Yelai used his last strength to kick on the rocks and barely climbed ashore. The fear of almost drowning made his hands and feet weak, and he almost couldn't control his head and fell to the side as soon as he landed go.

Fortunately, Chu Cang quickly supported him with his eyes and hands, and it seemed that he had no intention of letting his hands come down from Zi Yelai's waist after that.

"Is this the bottom of the cliff?"

It was dark here, it looked like a cave instead, and there was no sign of anyone, but thinking about it, probably no one would rush up and jump down the cliff like them.Midnight didn't care about anything else, wiped his wet face, and quickly dried his hair and clothes with internal force.

After looking around, Chu Cang said leisurely, "It seems that we were the first to find this place."

...This does not seem to be something to be proud of.Zi Yelai suddenly felt that Chu Cang was similar to Jun Rugu in some aspects, so he simply gave up discussing the escape route with him, and surveyed the surrounding environment on his own, looking for a way to leave.

For ordinary people, when they suddenly fall into such a strange and uncertain situation, the first reaction should be panic or anxiety, but Chu Cang is not an ordinary person. Withered branches.

Frowning and staring at his movements, Zi Yelai was really puzzled: "Chu Cang, what are you doing?"

The other party's answer was very natural: "Light the fire, come over and help."

Thinking of making a torch to find the way, Zi Yelai still joined him.

After working for a while, Chu Cang piled up all the branches the two of them had picked up, and then made a fire spirit formula.The flames suddenly rose into the sky, dispelling a lot of the gloomy cold air, and making the outline of the entire space clearer.

This time, Ziye was able to confirm that after the two of them fell into the water from the cliff, it seemed that they were really brought into a cave by the whirlpool.

"This place is not bad." Chu Cang said suddenly, ignoring Zi Yelai's strange expression and continued, "Didn't you notice? The devilish energy here is not strong, and it can be regarded as rare."

After being reminded by him, Zi Ye came to feel it, and asked in surprise, "Why is this so?"

Logically speaking, every space in the Demon Territory should not only have such a thin demonic atmosphere hovering. After all, the demonic energy is the main source of the Demonic Realm, and it is impossible for there to be an area with almost no demonic energy.

But the cave in front of him violated this principle, so it looked particularly abrupt.

After casually flicking the fire a few times, Chu Cang said, "Perhaps this place does not actually belong to the magic realm opened by the Golden Cauldron Palace."

Doesn't belong to the... Demon Realm?Zi Yelai blinked, and also realized in an instant: "You mean, this place is likely to be a realm within a realm?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the young man's smile deepening: "Well, you are not acting so stupid after all."

The corner of Zi Yelai's mouth twitched, he didn't know how to answer this sentence, but he was soon immersed in thinking.

The so-called realm within a realm literally means that placing one secret realm into another secret realm can serve as a double protection.Although the Golden Cauldron Palace opened is undoubtedly a demonic realm, but what is hidden in this demonic realm is likely to be a relatively safer secret realm.

If Yan Buyu didn't know about this, then they could be said to have hit the jackpot.

It seems that this trip is not bad.Zi Yelai finally forgave Chu Cang for taking him down the cliff, and his tone eased a lot: "Chu Cang, should we go into the depths of this secret realm? If we are lucky enough to encounter something big For the weapons or magic weapons that can be left behind, we can be half of each other."

Chu Cang didn't seem to be very interested in this, and after finding a comfortable position on the rock wall, he closed his eyes: "Don't worry, just rest for a while, let's talk about it when we find a way to enter. "

Seeing the young man's leisurely look, Zi Yelai sighed, and had no choice but to learn to lean against the rock wall behind him, but soon, he pulled his body away because he couldn't bear the uneven stone surface: ". ... Forget it, you rest, I will go around."

"Don't act alone, it's not safe, if you're not tired, how about chatting with me for a while?" Chu Cang didn't open his eyes, but suddenly asked with a slight smile: "You and Junior Brother Jun Is the relationship good?"

Almost choked by these words, Zi Yelai gave a wry smile silently, and then replied with a complicated mood: "You're wrong, he didn't take my senior brother seriously at all."

Unexpectedly, Chu Cang said surprisingly: "Really? I think he cares about you very much."

The heart skipped a beat heavily, and while maintaining a calm look, Zi Yelai pretended to be nonchalant and said: "Your eyes are really not very good, he just likes to point at me."

Hearing this, Chu Cang chuckled lightly, and did not continue this topic anymore.

So, the two of them sat by the fire for a long time in silence, only the sound of the flame burning dead branches could be heard in the silent space. The breath was close to the ear again.

"Don't sleep, do you smell anything?"

Startled by Chu Cang's voice that suddenly sounded next to his ears, Ziye came to gather his composure, and quickly sniffed the air, and then he was surprised to find that something was wrong: "This smell...is so strange, It’s not like what this place can send out.”

What lingers in the nose is a faint fragrance of flowers and plants, but this place is completely barren, without any trace of plant growth.

Suddenly, Zi Yelai felt a little powder on the tip of his nose, he wiped it off with his hand, and then said to himself strangely: "...what is this?"

Chu Cang next to him heard the words, immediately grabbed his hand and examined it carefully, and his voice was quite unbelievable: "Scale powder?"

In the darkness not far away, there were faint traces of lightness flashing past.

After pondering for a while, Chu Cang's expression gradually became serious: "I remembered, I have seen records about a certain ancient butterfly in the classics, which is somewhat similar to the situation in front of me. The butterfly is named The sweet-eating butterflies can emit the same fragrance by sucking the juice pollen of other plants, but it is said that the traces of the sweet-eating butterflies have not been found for more than 1000 years. Could it be that they are still living in this secret place? ?”

Zi Yelai had never heard of Shixiangdie's name before, after thinking about it, he said: "I always stay here and I don't find anything, why don't I follow Xiangxiang to find out."

Chu Cang didn't answer immediately, he seemed to be hesitating, nodded and stood up after a while, then picked out a few thicker clumps of branches from the fire, handed half of them to him, and kept the other half for himself.

Guided by the firelight and fragrance, the two finally set off into the unfathomable darkness in front of them.

This cave is extraordinarily wide, and you can hardly see the edge when you look up, and there will be bursts of echoes when you speak, and the underground river that they emerged from flows under your feet, but the flow rate is surprisingly slow, giving people a sense of stillness The illusion of immobility.

Zi Yelai followed behind Chu Cang. Due to the rugged terrain, he walked with one foot deep and one foot shallow. He almost tripped after a while, but Chu Cang reached out to help him in time.

The young man's palm was warm and strong, which made Zi Yelai slightly startled, and inexplicably felt that he was very reliable, and subconsciously asked the question that he had been wondering for a long time: "...Chu Cang, as a People from the Fire Realm, how did you get to know my master?"

Chu Cang didn't intend to hide it, so he told him the truth: "The Fire Realm is vast and sparsely populated, there are not many monks, and their aptitudes are also uneven. Originally, I was planning to come to the Wind Realm to discover some potential monks and send them to the Wind Realm. Accepted as a disciple, and later met your master in the process. Because he saw my extraordinary strength, and I have the mentality of good and evil in cultivation, so he asked me to help Zhengdao deal with Jinding Palace together, and in return he promised to help you. I found some casual cultivators who are willing to go to the Fire Realm to join Qianren Mountain."

As he listened, Zi Yelai became more and more curious about his identity and background: "Why are there not many monks in the Fire Realm? Is it because of this that the cultivation mentality of good and evil twins prevails?"

"It can also be understood in this way." Chu Cang smiled, "I also said before that our Fire Realm is not like your people in the Wind Realm, and the boundary between good and evil is not so clear."

But Zi Yelai was still puzzled: "But in this way, how can we distinguish between good and evil people?"

In the endless darkness, he couldn't see Chu Cang's face, but could only hear the other party's still calm voice: "It's just that the cultivation method is different, how can we distinguish between good and evil based on this alone? Suppose a certain Demon cultivators are never stained with blood, do you think he is good or evil? How do you judge a person from a decent family who kills innocent people indiscriminately?"

Seeing that the topic was becoming more and more serious, Zi Yelai could only laugh a few times, "That's true."

If he had been in the Fire Realm back then, he wouldn't have been hunted down after falling into the devil.

The two of them were speechless for a moment, followed the trail of intermittent fragrance and scale powder and then walked forward for a while, and soon their eyes suddenly became clear.

They had probably reached the end of the cave, and Chu Cang stretched out his hand and raised the torch to illuminate the road ahead, only to see some strange and complex totem traces faintly emerging in the darkness that seemed to have solidified into a solid body.

"Can you see what this is?" Zi Yelai glanced at the young man who was frowning in thought.

Without answering him, Chu Cang just put his hand on the remaining totem, closed his eyes and felt it for a while before he smiled and said: "...Interesting, it's a spirit-sealing formation, and it's been a while. The spiritual power that came down is not very strong, maybe we can go in and explore."

Zi Ye said: "Will this be too rash? We don't even know what's going on inside now."

However, Chu Cang didn't take it seriously: "You will know once you enter."
