Chapter 166: A Different World (Page 14)
The bearded man's axe swung towards Chen Yu with a whistling sound.
Chen Yu pushed Lin Qingxue behind him, took out a brick from his cloth bag, and hit the axe hard.
"Dang!" There was a loud bang of metal colliding, sparks flying everywhere. The brick and the axe collided, but surprisingly, there was no damage at all.
The bearded man was so shocked that his palms went numb and he took a few steps back. He looked at the brick in Chen Yu's hand in shock and asked, "What the hell is this?"
Chen Yu chuckled and said, "Brick, do you know anything about it?"
"Brick?" The bearded man looked confused.
"Bricks are perfect for all kinds of dissatisfaction!" Chen Yu said, waving the brick and rushing up again.
Before the bearded man could react, Chen Yu hit him in the face with a brick.
"Ouch!" The bearded man covered his face, screamed, and blood flowed from his nose.
"Brother!" Seeing this, the two thin men immediately rushed up to help.
Chen Yu hit the two thin men with a brick on his left and right, leaving them with bruises on their faces.
"Stop!" Lin Qingxue couldn't bear it anymore and spoke out to stop him.
Chen Yu then stopped, looked at the three tomb robbers lying on the ground, dusted off his hands, and said, "That's it?
Still want to steal my spicy strips?"
The three tomb robbers covered their faces and dared not speak.
"Qingxue, are you okay?" Chen Yu turned and looked at Lin Qingxue and asked with concern.
"I'm fine." Lin Qingxue shook her head, then looked at the three tomb robbers lying on the ground, "Chen Yu, let's go and not cause any more trouble."
Chen Yu nodded, carried the unconscious Luo Li on his back, and said, "Let's go."
Shangguan Wan'er and Liu Ruyan also followed.
They returned along the same route they had come.
"Chen Yu, how is Luo Li?" Liu Ruyan asked worriedly.
"He's still unconscious." Chen Yu said, "We'll think of a solution after we get out."
As they walked, they suddenly found that the road ahead was blocked.
"What's going on?" Chen Yu shone the flashlight and found that there was a stone wall in front of him with no exit.
"Did we take the wrong road?" Shangguan Wan'er said.
"No way, we just walked along the same way we came here." Liu Ruyan said.
"Could there be some mechanism?" Lin Qingxue said.
Chen Yu carefully observed the stone wall and found an inconspicuous groove on it.
"There seems to be a groove here." Chen Yu said, "Could it be to put something in it?"
He took out a bunch of random things from the cloth bag and tried them one by one, but there was no reaction.
"No, no, no." Chen Yu said, "What on earth are we supposed to put in there?"
At this moment, the jade pendant in Luo Li's hand suddenly emitted a dazzling light, then flew out of her hand and slowly floated towards the groove on the stone wall.
The jade pendant fits into the groove perfectly.
With a loud rumbling sound, the stone wall slowly rose up, revealing an exit.
"Oh my god, it's true!" Chen Yu exclaimed.
"It seems that this jade pendant is the key to open the mechanism." Lin Qingxue said.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go." Liu Ruyan said.
Chen Yu, carrying Luo Li on his back, walked out first, followed closely by Lin Qingxue, Shangguan Wan'er, and Liu Ruyan.
They walked out of the exit and found that the view before them was suddenly clear.
This is no longer a dark and damp tomb, but a paradise with beautiful mountains and rivers.
Green mountains and clear waters, birds singing and flowers blooming, fresh air and rich spiritual energy.
"Wow, it's so beautiful here!" Liu Ruyan exclaimed.
"This place... is simply a paradise on earth!" Lin Qingxue couldn't help but admire it.
Chen Yu put Luo Li down, took a deep breath, and felt all the pores in his body open up, feeling indescribably comfortable.
"This place is truly a holy land for cultivating immortals! If I could cultivate here, wouldn't it be twice as effective with half the effort?"
Chen Yu sighed.
Shangguan Wan'er looked around, her brows furrowed slightly. "It seems like there's a formation barrier here, isolating this space from the outside world."
Lin Qingxue's gaze fell on the unconscious Luo Li, with a trace of worry between her brows: "Let's find a place to settle down first and see how Luo Li is doing."
Chen Yu nodded, carried Luo Li on his back, and walked along a stream.
The stream is crystal clear, the water is gurgling, and the fish and pebbles are clearly visible.
The shore was covered with green grass and colorful wildflowers. Butterflies danced among the flowers and bees hummed busily.
The air is filled with a faint floral scent, refreshing.
Liu Ruyan followed behind Chen Yu, occasionally reaching out to pick a wild flower and inserting it into her hair, and said with a sweet smile: "Chen Yu, do you think I'm beautiful?"
Chen Yu said without turning his head: "Beautiful, beautiful, you are the most beautiful."
Liu Ruyan said coquettishly, "You haven't even looked at me, how do you know I'm beautiful?"
Chen Yu smiled helplessly and said, "You are beautiful to begin with, I can tell that without even looking at you."
Only then did Liu Ruyan smile with satisfaction.
After walking for about half an hour, they came to a bamboo forest. The bamboo forest was lush and green, with swaying bamboo shadows and a gentle breeze, making the bamboo leaves rustle.
Deep in the bamboo forest, there is a small wooden house. It is small but very exquisite, with a thatched roof, bamboo walls and white window paper on the windows.
"This place is nice, let's rest here." Chen Yu said, walked to the wooden house and gently pushed open the door.
The wooden house was clean and simple, with only a wooden bed, a wooden table and a few wooden chairs.
Chen Yu put Luo Li on the wooden bed, then took out a bottle of mineral water from the cloth bag, unscrewed the cap, and fed Luo Li a few sips.
Luo Li was still unconscious, her face was pale and her breathing was weak.
"Luo Li, wake up!" Chen Yu gently patted Luo Li's cheek and shouted anxiously.
Lin Qingxue came over, reached out and touched Luo Li's forehead, and said, "She seems to have a fever."
"Fever?" Chen Yu became even more worried. "What should I do?"
Shangguan Wan'er said, "There's abundant spiritual energy here, which might help Luo Li's recovery."
Chen Yu nodded and said, "I hope so."
Liu Ruyan picked some wild flowers from outside and put them in a vase in the wooden house. She said, "Although this place is simple, it is also quite warm."
Lin Qingxue walked to the window, looked at the scenery outside, and said, "This is really a paradise, isolated from the world, far away from the hustle and bustle of the world."
Chen Yu also walked to the window, looked at the scenery outside, took a deep breath, and said: "Yes, it would be nice if I could stay here forever."
Shangguan Wan'er said, "It's a pity that we will have to leave sooner or later."
Chen Yu nodded and said, "Yes, we still have a lot to do."
They rested in the cabin for the night.
The next morning, Chen Yu woke up and found that Luo Li was already awake.
"Luo Li, you're awake!" Chen Yu shouted in surprise.
Luo Li opened her eyes and looked at Chen Yu with a hint of confusion in her eyes: "Where... am I?"
"This is..." Chen Yu was about to explain when he suddenly heard a noise coming from outside.
"What's going on?" Chen Yu walked to the door and looked outside.
I saw a group of people in strange clothes surrounding the bamboo forest and shouting loudly.
These people were all tall and strong with well-developed muscles. They held various weapons in their hands and looked ferocious.
"Who are these people?" Chen Yu asked puzzledly.
Lin Qingxue and Shangguan Wan'er also came out. When they saw the crowd outside, their faces became solemn.
"These people... seem to be bandits!" Shangguan Wan'er said.
"Bandits?" Chen Yu was stunned. "Why are there bandits here?"
Lin Qingxue said: "Although this place is a paradise, it is not absolutely safe.
Perhaps it was the spiritual energy of this space that attracted them."
"Then what should we do?" Chen Yu asked.
Shangguan Wan'er said, "Let's wait and see what they plan to do."
At this moment, a burly man with a face full of flesh walked out of the crowd.
He held a huge machete in his hand, pointed it at the wooden house, and shouted: "Listen, everyone inside, come out quickly!
Hand over all your treasures and I will spare your life!"
Chen Yu sneered: "Want to steal our treasure? Don't you see what you are?"
He pulled out an AK47 from his cloth bag and fired a volley of bullets into the sky.
"Da da da da da..."
The sudden gunshots scared the bandits so much that they fled in all directions.
"What is this?" The bandit leader looked at the AK47 in Chen Yu's hand in horror, his face turned pale with fear.
Chen Yu, carrying an AK47, walked up to the bandit leader and said, "Now, do you still want to rob our treasure?"
The bandit leader was so frightened that he trembled all over and shook his head repeatedly: "I won't dare to do it again, I won't dare to do it again, please spare my life!"
Chen Yu sneered and said, "Get lost!"
The bandit leader fled as if he had been pardoned.
The other bandits also fled.
"Chen Yu, what kind of weapon is this? It's so powerful!" Liu Ruyan asked curiously.
Chen Yu chuckled and said, "This is an AK47, an assault rifle. Do you want to know more about it?"
Liu Ruyan was confused: "Assault rifle? What is that?"
Chen Yu was too lazy to explain and said, "You'll know later."
Chen Yu stuffed the AK47 back into the bag, clapped his hands, and said, "Alright, it's okay. A bunch of rabble, they still want to rob us, don't they see who we are!"
Liu Ruyan was still curious and wanted to ask what the "assault rifle" was, but was interrupted by Lin Qingxue: "Okay, Ruyan, stop it. Chen Yu, go check on Luo Li. Why hasn't she woken up yet?"
Chen Yu then remembered that Luo Li was still unconscious, and hurried back to the wooden house. He saw Luo Li lying on the wooden bed. Her face was still a little pale, but her breathing was much steadier.
Chen Yu reached out and touched her forehead, and it was no longer hot.
"It should be fine now. Maybe fusing the memory fragments is too tiring."
Chen Yu said, "Let her rest for a while."
Shangguan Wan'er walked to the window, looked out at the sky which was already turning pale, and said, "It's almost dawn. Let's get some rest and make plans after Luo Li wakes up."
After a night of fear and the hassle in the secret passage, everyone was a little tired.
Chen Yu took out some bread and a few bottles of mineral water from his cloth bag, distributed them to everyone, and said, "Let's eat something to replenish our energy first."
Liu Ruyan took the bread and mineral water and ate while saying, "Chen Yu, how much stuff is in this bag?
How come there is everything?"
Chen Yu chuckled and said, "Secret!"
After eating, everyone found a place to rest. Chen Yu leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest.
Liu Ruyan lay down next to Luo Li and closed her eyes to rest. Lin Qingxue and Shangguan Wan'er sat by the window, chatting quietly.
After an unknown amount of time, Chen Yu suddenly heard a bird singing. He opened his eyes and found that it was already dawn.
