Chapter 19: Exploring the Demonic Lair
Explore the dangerous places and find ways to repel the enemy
"Li Yuan, we have to find the wolf's lair and eradicate it completely!" Bi Yao's eyes were firm, and his tone was filled with unquestionable determination.
The golden light shield was about to collapse, and the trapped wolf let out a series of creepy growls, as if it was about to break out of the shield in the next second.
Li Yuan looked at Bi Yao's resolute profile, feeling both worried and admiring. This girl is such a ruthless person!
"Yaoyao, I'll go with you! If that demonic wolf dares to touch a hair on your head, I'll make it pay the price!"
Senior Brother Chen and Little Sister Zhou were trembling beside them, wishing they could disappear right there.
Senior Brother Chen muttered to himself: What is this girl trying to do?
Are you going to make me a cannon fodder again?
Zhou Xiaomei tightly grasped the corner of Brother Chen's clothes and sobbed softly: "Brother, I'm scared..." Brother Chen pretended to be calm and patted Zhou Xiaomei's hand, but he was very panicked inside.
The demon wolf's lair is located deep in a dark and damp forest. The air is filled with a rotten and stench that is disgusting.
The towering ancient trees block out the sun, completely blocking out the sunlight and making the forest even more eerie and terrifying.
Bi Yao and Li Yuan walked in front, carefully avoiding the slippery moss and tangled tree roots under their feet.
"Hiss..." A creepy sound came from the darkness, and several lizard-like little demons jumped down from the tree, revealing their sharp teeth, and pounced on Bi Yao and Li Yuan.
Li Yuan was quick-eyed and quick-handed. He swung the sword in his hand, and with a flash of sword light, several little demons were instantly cut into two pieces.
"A mere trifle!" Li Yuan snorted disdainfully and turned to look at Bi Yao, only to find that she was staring at a seemingly ordinary stone wall in front of her with a frown on her face.
"Yao Yao, what's wrong?"
Bi Yao did not answer, but slowly stretched out his hand, touched the stone wall with his fingertips, and felt the subtle lines on it.
"This..." A gleam of light flashed in her eyes, "There seems to be something behind this..." Bi Yao withdrew her hand, rubbed her chin with her fingertips, and fell into deep thought.
This stone wall looks ordinary, but she always feels something is wrong.
Based on her many years of experience in archaeology, she believed that the patterns on the stone wall were not naturally formed, but more like some kind of man-made markings.
"Li Yuan, there's something wrong with this stone wall!" Bi Yao said in a firm and resolute tone.
Li Yuan took a closer look and scratched his head. "I don't see anything wrong with it. It's just a piece of stone. Yaoyao, are you thinking too much?"
"Do you understand women's intuition?" Bi Yao rolled her eyes at him and began to carefully observe the environment around the stone wall.
Suddenly, her eyes focused and she noticed a slightly raised stone at the bottom of the stone wall.
"Great! That's it!" Bi Yao raised a sly smile.
She pressed the stone hard, and there was a dull "boom" sound. The stone wall slowly opened to both sides, revealing a pitch-black hole.
A cold breath blew in the face, making people shudder.
"Oh my god, there really is a mechanism!" Li Yuan exclaimed in amazement, looking at Bi Yao with eyes full of admiration, "Yaoyao, you are amazing! You are simply my idol!"
Bi Yao raised her eyebrows complacently, "It's just a basic operation, don't make a fuss."
It was pitch black inside the cave, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
Li Yuan took out a night-shining pearl from his storage bag and illuminated the road ahead.
The cave was damp and cold, and the air was filled with a disgusting fishy smell.
The ground was covered with all kinds of strange-shaped skeletons, which was creepy.
"This place... is eerie and a bit scary..." Li Yuan swallowed and subconsciously tightened the sword in his hand.
Bi Yao showed no fear at all, but instead looked excited. "This is exciting! Let's go in and take a look!"
The two men advanced cautiously. The cave was winding and full of various traps and mechanisms.
With the help of modern knowledge, Bi Yao identified some simple traps, but some mechanisms still caught them off guard.
Once, they accidentally triggered a mechanism, and countless spikes shot out from the wall. Li Yuan was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and pulled Bi Yao over, barely escaping the disaster.
"Oh my god! This is too insidious!" Li Yuan was still in shock and couldn't help but complain.
Bi Yao calmed down and used modern architectural knowledge to analyze the layout of the trap.
She discovered that these traps were not random, but arranged according to a certain pattern.
As long as you find the pattern, you can successfully avoid danger.
"Li Yuan, look, the trigger points of these traps are all..."
Before he finished speaking, Bi Yao's expression suddenly changed, and she pushed Li Yuan away fiercely, "Be careful!"
"Crack--" With a crisp sound, the ground under Li Yuan's feet suddenly collapsed... Li Yuan fell into darkness, and Bi Yao's anxious shout came to his ears: "Li Yuan! Li Yuan!" He fell heavily to the ground, and a sharp pain came, making him groan.
Fortunately, there was not a deep abyss below, but just a shallow pit. However, the sudden fall made him a little confused.
"Li Yuan, are you okay?" Bi Yao's voice came from above, with a hint of trembling.
"It's okay, it's okay, my butt just hurts a little." Li Yuan rubbed his sore butt and climbed out of the pit.
When I looked up, I saw Bi Yao looking down anxiously. I was relieved to see that he was fine.
"Be careful next time. There are too many traps in this cave." Bi Yao warned.
"I know, I know." Li Yuan agreed, but he couldn't help complaining in his heart: This place is even more unpredictable than the expression of my father-in-law's family.
The two continued to go deeper, the fishy smell in the air became stronger and stronger, and the cave became wider and wider.
Finally, they came to a huge cave. In the center of the cave, a crystal emitting a strange purple light was suspended in the air, giving off a heart-pounding evil aura.
"Oh my god, what is this thing? It looks like it's not easy to deal with!" Li Yuan couldn't help but exclaimed.
"This is the source of the demon wolf's power—the magic crystal." A gleam of light flashed in Bi Yao's eyes. "As long as we destroy it, we can weaken the demon wolf's power!"
"Destroy it? How?" Li Yuan was confused.
"Watch me!" Bi Yao raised a confident smile and began to set traps in the cave. She used modern knowledge of physics and chemistry, combined with the environment in the cave, to design a set of exquisite chain traps.
Senior Brother Chen and Xiaomei Zhou also followed to the cave. Seeing Bi Yao's arrangement, Senior Brother Chen's originally contemptuous look became solemn, and he secretly admired her in his heart: This woman is really capable.
Just when the trap was set and they were about to destroy the magic crystal, a deafening roar suddenly came from the entrance of the cave.
"Roar--"
The demon wolf is back!
It saw Bi Yao and the others, as well as the magic crystal emitting purple light beside them, at a glance. It was immediately enraged, its eyes red, and it pounced on Bi Yao and the others like a black lightning.
"Oh no, it's back!" Li Yuan's face changed, he drew out his sword and stood in front of Bi Yao.
The battle is about to break out!
"Yaoyao, be careful!" Li Yuan shouted loudly, and the long sword in his hand danced like a dragon, with sword energy running wildly, heading straight for the face of the demon wolf.
This demon wolf is huge in size, exuding a suffocating demonic aura, with blood-red eyes, like an evil ghost from hell.
It was blown to pieces by Bi Yao's trap, and now it was furious, roaring loudly, and it wished it could tear the humans in front of it into pieces.
Bi Yao was no pushover either. She was agile and dodged the wolf's attacks with her quick movements.
Although this demon wolf is ferocious, Bi Yao is not a weak little white flower. She is a modern independent woman. After traveling through time, she has experienced hundreds of battles and has already acquired a lot of skills.
"Brother Chen, Sister Zhou, what are you doing? Come and help!" While Li Yuan was fending off the attack of the demon wolf, he did not forget to call out to his two teammates.
Senior Brother Chen and Xiaomei Zhou finally reacted and joined the battle.
"Bi Yao, go and destroy the magic crystal, leave this to us!" Li Yuan shouted and used a move called "Force to Split Huashan" to force the demon wolf back several steps.
Bi Yao seized the opportunity and leaped towards the magic crystal floating in the air.
Just as he was about to touch the magic crystal, suddenly, the demon wolf roared, and a black aura rushed towards Bi Yao.
"Be careful!" Li Yuan saw this and quickly pushed Bi Yao away, but he himself took the blow head-on, flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground.
"Li Yuan!" Bi Yao exclaimed and quickly ran to Li Yuan's side, "Are you okay?"
A trace of blood flowed from the corner of Li Yuan's mouth, but he forced a smile and said, "It's okay, it's just a small scene, I can handle it!"
"Still being stubborn!" Bi Yao glared at him angrily, but her eyes were full of worry.
"Hehe," Li Yuan chuckled, "I have to protect your man, this little injury is nothing!"
At this moment, the demon wolf pounced again. Its strength seemed even stronger than before, and its eyes were even more ferocious.
Bi Yao's heart sank, thinking to himself that this was not good.
"Let's go!" Li Yuan pushed Bi Yao away, "I'll stop it!"
"Want to leave? Not that easy!" The demon wolf sneered sinisterly...
