Chapter 412 Still eating? I’ll take you in!
Standing at the doorway, Cheng Feng and Hei Xiazi stared at the bronze furnace in the darkness.
Gradually, clear sounds came from inside, which meant that Hei Xiazi had guessed correctly.
Hei Xiazi glanced at Cheng Feng, only to find that Cheng Feng's gaze wasn't on the stove, but rather fixed on the pit below.
As he turned around, he saw the red-haired rice dumpling with green shoots and fangs climbing up from the stove opening.
Moreover, the red-haired rice dumpling was staring intently at them, seemingly regarding them as prey.
Black Bear frowned. These thousand-year-old zongzi were no pushovers, but since Cheng Feng didn't make a move, he resisted the urge to attack them.
Perhaps it was the two men's dismissive attitude that enraged the zongzi, which, with a burst of strength, pounced from mid-air at the two men standing outside the door.
The immense force of that instant caused the bronze furnace to shake slightly.
Hei Xiazi tensed up, drew his short sword, and prepared to fight.
Just as the rice dumpling was crossing the deep pit, a huge flower bud suddenly burst through the ivory dragon bone and swallowed the rice dumpling with a loud bang.
"Holy crap!"
Startled, the blind man immediately swore.
Although Cheng Feng said something had arrived, he never expected it to be in such an exaggerated manner.
This thing is completely transparent, like a giant sea lily. Its surrounding leaves and tentacles resemble flowers, and you can clearly see countless tiny insects crawling inside.
The two watched helplessly as the red-haired rice dumpling, like a rat swallowed by a snake, slid down the transparent branch without any resistance.
After swallowing the rice dumpling, the thing seemed quite pleased, and it turned its flower bud to Cheng Feng and Hei Xiazi's side.
"Still eating? I'm coming to collect your food!"
Cheng Feng sneered, and then unleashed Dragon Fire.
A streak of fire pierced the void and struck the flower bud squarely. Instantly, an inextinguishable dragon fire ignited, spreading from top to bottom across its entire body.
Without hesitation, Cheng Feng jumped into the pit that was more than ten meters deep below.
Upon landing, it was discovered that this thing had made a bold decision: it discarded the part of its body that was right above the rice dumpling and then wrapped the rice dumpling up and crawled into a crack in the ground.
Without pausing, Cheng Feng threw out another wisp of the Undying Dragon Flame.
Unfortunately, the dragon fire exploded into a burst of flames upon hitting the crack, but it was quickly extinguished.
"As expected, killing it is indeed extremely difficult."
Cheng Feng originally intended to use the properties of dragon fire to see if he could ignite the entire Lu region along this branch.
But now it seems that this thing has quite a bit of survival wisdom, as it abandoned this branch without hesitation, even without giving up its prey.
At this moment, Hei Xiazi, who had been delayed for a few seconds, also came down the wall.
She first cautiously looked around before walking over to Cheng Feng's side.
"solved?"
Cheng Feng shook his head.
"The black dragon vein is just one branch of it; it's not so easy to solve."
"It's Lu? I never expected it to be like this!"
"Hei Xiazi exclaimed in amazement."
"As far as I know, its size could very well span the entire map of China, while that thing just now probably wasn't even a hair."
Cheng Feng's words silenced Hei Xiazi.
"So, theoretically it's everywhere?"
Cheng Feng nodded.
Hei Xiazi quietly moved his feet, feeling as if he were stepping on a remote-controlled bomb that might explode at any moment.
"Wu Sansheng and his team may have made a wasted trip. They won't be able to walk the rest of the way without mastering the art of bone shrinking."
Cheng Feng looked at the crack where Lu had left and spoke softly.
Black Bear gently slapped himself:
"Sometimes I really hate myself for being so talented. If I didn't know how to shrink my bones, I could run away openly and legitimately."
"Let's go back and inform Wu Sansheng and the others first."
This is just a simple altar from the Stone Age, with nothing worth looting; even rats would cry and leave if they came.
So Cheng Feng called to Hei Xiazi to climb upwards.
A few minutes later, Wu Sansheng and the others who were guarding Wu Xie and A Ning saw Cheng Feng and his companion walking back from afar.
When Cheng Feng arrived, they got up to greet him.
"Did something happen? Why is there such a commotion?"
Wu Sansheng asked with a somewhat solemn expression.
"Blind man, you tell them I'm going to check on those two patients."
After speaking, Cheng Feng walked past Pan Zi and headed towards Wu Xie.
At this moment, Cheng Feng was inwardly complaining about Wu Sansheng. His nephew had made very good arrangements, not only putting something under him but also placing a backpack under his head as a pillow.
When Cheng Feng left, things were exactly the same as they were when he arrived at Aning's place.
What he didn't know was that Wu Sansheng had also used Aning to test the toxicity of the baby fruit; otherwise, the words "inhuman" would definitely have been etched onto Wu Sansheng's face.
First, I looked at Wu Xie. His breathing was steady, and his heartbeat and blood flow were normal. He should wake up soon.
After confirming that everything was alright, Cheng Feng walked over to A Ning's side.
He lifted his foot and turned Aning over so that she lay on her back on the ground. From this angle, the mountain peaks appeared slightly introverted, unlike the more prominent peaks when she was on her side.
The exposed section of her waist was covered in dark dust, but overall it was still not bad; at least her abdominal muscles were well-defined.
"You're in a slightly better situation than Wu Xie. Wu Xie, you're not even as healthy as a girl."
With a sigh in his heart, Cheng Feng pulled off his coat with one hand.
He casually tossed it over his shoulder, and it landed right on Aning's navel.
"It's better to cover your belly button when you sleep, otherwise you're more likely to get diarrhea."
At this moment, Cheng Feng was only wearing a sports vest, which fully accentuated his well-proportioned muscles.
Unfortunately, the only girl here was still lying on the ground like a dead pig, lacking the admiring gaze one might expect.
"Boss, you've got a great body. If I were a girl, I'd be head over heels for you with those muscles."
Cheng Feng looked speechlessly at Hei Xiazi, who had already finished talking with Wu Sansheng.
Fortunately, he was wearing sunglasses, so it was impossible to tell whether there was admiration in his eyes.
"Believe it or not, I'll punch you to death."
Cheng Feng raised his fist and glared at Hei Xiazi.
"You don't need to lift a finger; I'm already under the influence of your strong masculine energy!"
Black Bear grabbed his own neck, stuck out his tongue, and tilted to the side, looking like he was already dead.
After giving Hei Xiazi a middle finger, Cheng Feng walked towards Wu Sansheng and the others.
"The blind man has already explained it to you, right? The road ahead is too difficult for a normal person to walk on. You should take the two wounded men and get out of here first."
After Cheng Feng spoke, both Wu Sansheng and Xie Lianhuan showed a hint of resentment.
The two exchanged a glance, and then Xie Lianhuan spoke:
"Boss Cheng, we've come all this way, it would be a real shame if we didn't take a look. What do you think..."
Cheng Feng, on the other hand, didn't care.
"Whatever, you can go and take a look. The blind man and I will just grab something to eat and rest."
"Then I'll have to trouble you with Wu Xie."
Jie Lianhuan said with deep gratitude.
Cheng Feng waved his hand, then walked to a nearby rock and sat down, beginning to select food in the imaginary space.
