Cao Ke did not rush to answer the dragon girl's words, but looked around intently, carefully observing the environment of the crater. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Seeing Cao Ke like this, the dragon girl did not continue to ask, and tried her best to relax her somewhat nervous mood, standing behind Cao Ke's side, not daring to leave half a step.
After a full five minutes, Cao Ke finally looked happy, pointed to a place about fifty meters away from them, and said to the dragon girl: "Look at the dragon! There! There is a road there, you should be able to go down to the bottom!"
The dragon girl followed Cao Ke's point, and saw a narrow path that was about twenty centimeters wide, inconspicuous, winding down from the top of the mountain to the surface of the magma.
"Wait!" The dragon girl hurriedly grabbed Cao Ke, who was about to leave, and asked in surprise, "You...... You're not going to go down to the lava from there, are you? You're crazy? Just where we're now, the temperature is already very high, and if we really go down, I'm afraid you and I can't afford it! Besides, the palm-wide road is still rocky next to it, and if you're not careful, you'll fall directly into the magma, and you'll burn no bones left......
Cao Ke was pulled by the dragon girl and had to stop, thought for a moment, nodded, and said, "Indeed, it's too dangerous there...... In this way, Long'er, you should stay here, the position we are in now is quite good, you can clearly see all the situations around me, even if I encounter any unknowable risks, you can help me. ”
The dragon girl stared at Cao Ke and said seriously, "Young Master Ke, do you really have to go down?"
Cao Ke's eyes were firm: "I have already come here, I will not be willing to go to the end!" Don't worry, Long'er, the end of that road is the last place I want to reach on this trip, if there is still nothing there, I will definitely not continue to explore, let's go back to the cave where we hid before!"
The dragon girl's snow-white teeth bit her lower lip tightly, and after thinking about it again, she finally nodded reluctantly: "Okay, just according to what you say, you can go down and see for yourself...... But you have to promise me, if you feel that your body can no longer support you, come back quickly, after all, saving your life is the most important thing!"
Listening to the dragon girl's concerned words, Cao Ke's heart warmed, and he couldn't help but raise his arms, hugged the dragon girl tightly in his arms, his nose swept over the dragon girl's long hair that had been soaked with sweat, smelled the refreshing fragrance on the long hair, and said a little intoxicated: "Long'er, thank you for your concern for me, you have to know how important you are in my heart...... Don't worry, I'll be back safely for you!"
Where would the dragon girl have thought that Cao Ke would suddenly come like this, feeling Cao Ke's warm and broad chest, the little girl's pretty face has turned into a red apple. I had the heart to push Cao Ke away, but I didn't know how to lift up the slightest strength, so I struggled for a long time, so I simply hugged my arms, wrapped my arms around Cao Ke's tiger's back, and said softly: "Young Master Ke, I have already said that you are the one I invited to help our sea clan, and I have the responsibility to protect your safety! Even if I pay my own life for this, ......I will not hesitate to say it! Don't be so excited......"
Cao Ke slowly let go of the dragon girl, wiped the sweat beads on her forehead for her, smiled slightly, stopped talking, turned around, and ran towards the narrow road.
The dragon girl's gaze followed Cao Ke closely all the way, and although the eyes were still concerned, there seemed to be something different in its depths......
In less than a minute, Cao Ke had already arrived in front of the narrow road. Just now, when the distance was still far away, it didn't feel so obvious, but now, when he got closer, Cao Ke deeply realized the horror of this narrow road!
Twenty centimeters or so, the length of an adult's foot, with lava tumbling on the left and a mountain wall on the right, walking on such a road is tantamount to walking a tightrope at a height, and a carelessness, or a negligence in movement, will make one's bones disappear in an instant!
However, as Cao Ke himself said before, since they have all come here, there is no need to turn back and cower. Cao Ke let out a long breath, waved his hand to the dragon girl in the distance, and after signaling that he was fine, he cautiously took his first step towards the narrow road.
With the width of the narrow road, it is obviously impossible for Cao Ke to walk through it normally. After coming to the Lingtian Continent, Cao Ke, who was obviously much stronger, could walk twenty centimeters to open up? Therefore, Cao Ke could only turn sideways and move down little by little, not daring to be careless.
I don't know who dug this narrow road, it winds and spirals down, a length of several hundred meters, and with Cao Ke's current turtle speed, there is no time, and he can't think of finishing it.
The dragon girl stared at Cao Ke for a pair of seconds, her heart was beating even faster, at this time, she was really scared, afraid that Cao Ke would really fall into the magma if he was not careful.
The whole back was completely leaning on the mountain wall, his hands were spread out, and he moved one step at a time, Cao Ke's nerves were tense, and he tried to make every movement of himself in place.
In such a somewhat suffocating atmosphere, Cao Ke safely moved down a distance of about ten meters. Suddenly, Cao Ke's face froze, and his body involuntarily fell forward, seeing that he was about to fall into the magma.
This sudden change made the dragon girl scream, in her opinion, from the beginning of stepping on the narrow road, Cao Ke did not make any hasty and irregular movements, and he should not fall down without warning like in front of him.
Although the dragon girl has doubts in her heart, the current situation does not allow her to hesitate at all! Cao Ke's entire body has been completely vacated, there is no focus point, if she doesn't help, what awaits Cao Ke is only to fall into the magma and turn into ashes!
Faced with such a situation, the dragon girl was obviously prepared! I saw her quickly squat down, grabbed a stone the size of a football beside her, and threw the stone out of Cao Ke with both arms!
The dragon lady has source power, and a stone the size of a football is not much different from a small sandbag for her. I saw that this stone was like a streamer of lightning, crossing a distance of dozens of meters, and hit the mountain wall below Cao Ke.
This is not over, after the stone hit the mountain wall, it bounced high with the reaction force of the mountain wall, and rushed towards the direction of Cao Ke's fall.
Cao Ke, who had become a free fall, naturally understood the dragon girl's intentions, twisted his waist, and changed his falling posture from his big head down to his toes down.
Just when Cao Ke had just completed this action, the rebounding stone also arrived, where was Cao Ke willing to let go of such a good chance to save his life, the source of the dantian lifted up violently, and his toes lightly touched on the stone.
The stone was exhausted by Cao Ke's upward force, and it could only turn into the magma and disappear in an instant. Cao Ke relied on the little strength of the stone to flip several times in a row, and finally reluctantly grabbed the edge of the narrow road with both hands.
Seeing Cao Ke escape, the dragon girl couldn't help but let out a long breath, and then looked at the position before Cao Ke fell, only to see a stone pillar, I don't know when it poked out from the top of the mountain wall! It was this ejected stone pillar that unexpectedly pushed Cao Ke out of the narrow road.
"Young Master Ke be careful!" The dragon girl who saw it loudly reminded Cao Ke: "There may be an ambush near that narrow road!"
Cao Ke, who climbed up the narrow road, looked at the raised stone pillar with palpitations, and gave the dragon girl a thumbs up from afar, which meant that he was praising the dragon girl for her quick reaction just now, so as to save herself from falling into the magma.
"He's meowing!" Cao Ke muttered in a low voice: "This unicorn fire is really a bastard enough!
Huo Wu, who was hidden in Cao Ke's necklace, replied angrily: "You can't blame Qilin Fire for this! It's your own carelessness that didn't think of the possibility of this." Qilin Fire chooses its future master for itself, so naturally it will do everything!"
"Sister Fire Dance, how can you still speak for the Qilin Fire?" Cao Ke pouted: "If I fall into the magma and turn into ashes, won't the necklace you use as shelter also fall into the magma?"
"You kid!" Huo Wu sneered, "Can't you think about your sister's goodness?
Cao Ke's face was bitter, and he said: "Sister Huo Wu, now is not the time to joke, is it? The temperature around me is not one hundred but ninety, and if it continues like this, even if it is not covered by the magma under the sudden emergence of the cylinder, it will be hot and dead! You have an idea for me, do you have to let me go to the end of this narrow road?" As he spoke, Cao Ke raised his head, looked at the end of the narrow road from a distance, and continued: "There's nothing special there!"
"Of course, there's nothing special there!" Huo Wu said angrily: "The predicament you are facing now is just a test of the Qilin Fire! How do you think there is such a slender and narrow road in this deserted crater? It's not the Qilin Fire's doing! The purpose of the Qilin Fire is to see if you have the calmness and ability to deal with emergencies, or in other words, whether you have the tenacity and courage to reach the end of the narrow road!"
"He's meowing!" Cao Ke scolded helplessly in a low voice: "This damn unicorn fire, without saying anything to the master in advance, started the test, it's really not a thing!
