Nono from another world

Chapter 193 Attacked
The young man frowned, "What does the teacher mean?"

"We just want to borrow something from Xu Ran." The old man squinted his eyes, looked at the young man and said, "It took us so much effort this time to find the location of that special crystal. We can get a piece, but at least we let the investigation bureau lose this opportunity. Also, don’t you forget why we sent Yang to Dong’an District, isn’t the purpose just to lure Xu Ran?”

"Xu Ran is a very capable person, but this is not the reason why he can develop so far in the west. No matter what happened between him and the old emperor, his status in the old emperor's mind is also extraordinary of."

"As for us, with our current strength, we are still unable to compete with the entire empire, so we need to borrow the power of the second prince to obtain some resources and equipment."

"Given his status in the old emperor's mind, it's not too much for us to ask for some crystals and food, right? And this will also dampen the spirit of the second prince. Only in the future can we act better in the west."

Hearing this, the young man nodded thoughtfully. For him, as long as he can let the investigation bureau know that their innovators are opponents worthy of their attention, it is enough.

As for what would happen to the second prince because of this incident, or how he would feel in his heart, he didn't care at all.

The old man glanced at him and seemed to see what he was thinking. He couldn't help but shook his head and said, "You still don't understand. Not only can we not kill Xu Ran, but we must also protect him."

"Since the old emperor values ​​the second prince so much, he will never allow him to do anything to us. Otherwise, we will have to face the anger of the entire empire. For us now, it is not only useless Any benefit, but a big trouble."

"That's why I didn't let you go to the Black Forest this time. Firstly, the wind is more stable than you. Secondly, your strength is not enough to deal with this second prince. Once you are discovered, then we have prepared the arrangement for so long It's useless, do you understand?"

"Understood." The young man with extremely thin lips nodded solemnly, "I didn't think carefully."

"Hmm... By the way, if you have nothing to do for the time being, go and meet Yurika. Ask carefully what happened underneath, and don't miss a single word."

"Yes, I see."

……

"After going back this time, those people in the investigation bureau don't know what expressions they will have. If possible, I really want to take a picture of them."

Nuonuo was lying on the tree trunk, chewing a grass bud, and said to Liuli and Nim under the tree.

"The conditions we agreed to them earlier were really a bit of a disadvantage. We should have let them bleed a little earlier."

Hearing this, Liuli felt a little funny, and said: "The people in the investigation bureau are already pissed off to death. If your conditions are more stringent, they will probably become angry from embarrassment, right?"

Nim also smiled, and said: "But your strength should have become stronger again, right? I think you seem to be at the peak of D-level. If you break through B-level on the way back, those from the investigation bureau People's faces should be more ugly."

"It's just luck." After a short pause, Nuonuo pondered, "If it wasn't for that stone, I might still be lying on the hospital bed now."

Liuli was silent for a while, and said, "You'd better not tell anyone else about the existence of this stone. If the investigation bureau finds out that you got a part of that crystal, you may have to hand it over."

"I know." Nuonuo nodded, "I won't tell anyone except you. By the way, why did Yuehua and the others go for so long?"

As Nuonuo was talking, he felt a rustling sound coming from the grass in front of him. Nuonuo looked down and saw a figure stumbling over from a distance, turning his head to look at it from time to time, as if Dodging something.

Nuonuo felt strange, squinted his eyes and looked carefully, and then suddenly realized that the person who suddenly appeared was none other than a member of the Yuehua team, Lao Huo!

Nuonuo couldn't say it well, thinking that Yuehua and the others had been ambushed by something, so she didn't care about it at the moment, jumped up, and ran to Lao Huo's side in two or three steps.
When they got closer, the three of them realized that there was no good flesh left in Lao Huo's body. He looked like he had just been fished out of a pool of blood, and one arm was missing.Perhaps because of excessive blood loss, Lao Huo's eyes were a little blurred. When the three of Nuonuo came to him, he didn't notice it at all. He just lowered his head and ran forward desperately. escape.

Seeing this, Nuonuo hurriedly ran to Lao Huo, stretched out his hand to catch him, and asked, "Lao Huo, what's wrong with you?!"

Hearing Nuonuo's voice, Lao Huo stopped. First, he glanced at Nuonuo with a blurred gaze, and then his whole body seemed to suddenly flash back before dying, and a burst of power burst out from nowhere. Holding Nuonuo tightly, three words came out of his mouth: "Save Yuehua!"

After finishing speaking, Lao Huo fell back straight as if all his strength had been sucked away by something, and couldn't stand up again.Liuli squatted down to check his breath, and said with some gratitude: "Although he lost a lot of blood, he is still alive, but he probably won't be able to wake up for a while..."

Seeing a person who was fine a few hours ago suddenly turned into such a miserable state, Nuonuo felt very uncomfortable, but when he thought of the last sentence he said, Nuonuo couldn't care less about being sad, and turned to Liuli and Nim said: "It seems that something happened to Yuehua and the others, we have to save him."

Liuli and Nim naturally would not object to this, the three of them simply packed up their equipment, and Dang Li moved towards the direction where Lao Huo was running towards.Before leaving, Nuonuo called Gondo and asked him to take a look at Lao Huo and find a way to inform them in time if there was any situation.

Soon, the three of them followed the bloodstains to a cave that was more than half the height of a person and had to bend down to barely enter.

Nuonuo took a closer look at the hole, and found that the hole didn't look like it was dug out by hand. Instead, there were many paw prints, and there were some furs hanging on the wall in the hole. It seemed that this should be a cave for some kind of animal. .

This made the three of them puzzled. They couldn't figure out how Yuehua and the others came to such a place. Could it be that they found something and got into this hole?
If this is the case, then there is some strange creature living in this hole, which can make Lao Huo into such a miserable state, and even remove one of his arms.

Thinking of this, the three of them became more vigilant. After all, in such a narrow cave, even practitioners like them would find it difficult to use their hands and feet. If they were not paying attention, the three of them would follow in Lao Huo's footsteps .

……

The three of them didn't observe for too long. After confirming that there was no ambush at the entrance of the cave, the three of them bent down and got into the oblate cave.

Unexpectedly, there is no fork in this cave, it seems to be the kind that goes all the way to the end. After walking for seven or eight minutes, there is still nothing in front of us.

As a result, the three of them couldn't help being a little puzzled, wondering if they had gone to the wrong place.Nuonuo is a person who can't hold back anything. After walking for another 2 minutes, he expressed his doubts and asked Nim: "Nim, can't you sense the existence of human beings? Is there a place in this place? No one is here, if we go the wrong way, won't it delay the time to rescue Yuehua?"

Nim replied without turning his head: "It's very vague, it's hard to say. But you see, there are traces of fighting on the wall, so it must be here."

Hearing what Nim said, Nuonuo noticed that there were indeed knife marks on the wall, apparently not long ago.But when he saw these knife marks, Nuonuo murmured in his heart again, wondering if the assailant could be a human being, otherwise how could he use knives?
But why would someone in this village come to attack Yuehua and the others, moreover, the person who can seriously injure Lao Huo and entangle Yuehua must be quite capable, so how could he appear in such a place?

The more she thought about it, the more suspicious she felt, Nuonuo unconsciously clenched the dagger at her waist, thinking that no matter who it was, as long as she dared to appear in front of her, she would risk her life and take that person down to let him know Know, dare to challenge the fate of their investigators.

As they thought about it, the three of them continued to move forward, until they were a little numb in the end.I don't know how long this cave is, the light gets darker the further you go inside, and the temperature drops a lot, it always makes people feel gloomy.After only staying underground for two days, and entering this place where she couldn't see her fingers, Nuonuo felt aggrieved, not to mention how aggrieved she was. She always felt that if she continued like this, sooner or later she would suffer from claustrophobia.

Liuli and Nim also felt unwell, and the three of them didn't speak for a while, and the cave was eerily quiet, except for the whistling of the wind, there were only some strange and inexplicable sounds.

Once this person stays in this environment, it is easy to think wildly.Just when Nuonuo was considering whether to tell a joke to brighten the atmosphere, Nim, who was walking in front of her, suddenly stopped. Nuonuo couldn't react in time, and bumped into her back, only heard a "bang", Nuonuo immediately grinned in pain, and before she had time to ask, Nim said in a serious tone: "We're here!"

Hearing what she said, Nuonuo froze for a moment, thinking that this is it?So he quickly poked his head out to look.

It turned out that it was only when I came here that the oblate hole in front became too wide, and there were even many bones scattered on the ground.

Nuonuo's face became more serious, and he quietly pulled out the dagger from his waist, greeted Nim, and stuck his head out first.

After walking more than ten steps forward, Nuonuo suddenly opened up, and a semi-circular space appeared, and countless animal bones were piled up on the ground of this semi-circular room.

These white bones looked like they had been there for some time, and there was not even any grass growing in the gaps. One could tell at a glance that the things living here had abandoned this place for a long time.

This is a good thing, otherwise, with the number of these bones, it would be hard for Nuono to imagine how huge the bodies of the aborigines living here are.If they really met, even with the strength of the three of them, I'm afraid they would have to pay some price to win each other.

It stands to reason that after walking to the end, Nuonuo should be happy, but at this moment her brows are indeed slightly wrinkled.

Because if you observe carefully, you will find that there is only one road in this cave, and there are no other passages.That being the case, where are the people who fought here before now?It's impossible to disappear out of thin air, right?

"Look, there's blood here!" At this moment, Liuli's exclamation came from the side.

Nuonuo and Nim hurried over, and they saw a pool of blood on the ground. They touched it lightly with their hands, and the blood was still warm!
This shows that the people in the cave have just left not long ago.

The three looked at each other, and Nim and Liuli said almost in unison: "There must be other passages here."

Hearing this, Nuonuo thought that if this place is not successful, there is some secret way, so he beat around with a dagger as he did on TV.

Liuli and Nim felt strange seeing this, but they didn't stop them either.After a while, Nuonuo stopped and said disappointedly: "There is no secret passage."

At the moment when she just finished speaking, Nuonuo suddenly felt a faint air flow in from the oblate hole.This place is at least a thousand meters away from the entrance of the cave. No matter how strong the wind is, it is impossible to blow in, so the only explanation can only be that there are really other exits from this place.

Just as he was wondering, Nuonuo heard a slight noise coming from the place where the pile of bones was. The sound was like someone moving his body in the distance.

At first, Nuonuo thought she had heard it wrong, but after she felt it carefully with her ears up, she was sure that she didn't have any hallucinations, and that someone was indeed under the pile of bones.

Realizing this, Nuonuo was about to tell Liuli and Nim what he had discovered, when the two of them seemed to have discovered something and shouted to a certain place in front at the same time: "Stop!"

After finishing speaking, the two of them didn't give Nuonuo time to react, and immediately rushed out into the darkness like a gust of wind, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only Nuonuo standing in place, chasing or chasing. Neither is chasing.

After sighing helplessly, Nuonuo turned her eyes to the pile of bones, because she had a weapon in her hand, and after resting for such a long time, her physical strength had already recovered seven or eighty-eight, and Nuonuo was fine. Hesitating, immediately push those bones aside.

Sure enough, there was a hole tens of centimeters wide hidden under these piles of bones. At first glance, it was impossible for anyone to be in this place, but if it was a thin person, it was still easy to squeeze in through this passage.

Nuonuo didn't dare to act rashly. Before going down the hole, she stuck to the ground and listened carefully. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, she took a deep breath and jumped down directly.

After entering, Nuonuo found out that there is a cave under the entrance of the cave, a cave of about ten square meters is hidden under the entrance of the cave, and the sound of the moving body is also very clear in this deep environment.

Nuonuo froze for a moment, and her body tensed up instantly.Following the voice, he touched it cautiously.

Walking this way, the real appearance of the cave was also presented to Nuonuo.I saw countless roots and many vine-like plants falling down from the top of the cave, and there was still a faint light shining from above. Some water droplets dripped down along the roots and vines, and immediately reflected the colorful light, which looked different. flavor.

This place doesn't look like an underground cave, but rather a jungle somewhere.And that sound came from the very center of the cave.

Taking a look in the weak sunlight, Nuonuo found a person lying on the ground in the center of the cave.This person turned his back to her, making it difficult to see his appearance, but judging from the black robe on his body, this was exactly the person she was looking for on this trip.

The people on the ground didn't seem to notice Nuonuo's arrival, they were covering their mouths and coughing softly.The sound was very soft, but when it fell into Nuonuo's ears, it made her breathe slightly, because she could tell that this person had suffered serious internal injuries.

Seeing this, Nuonuo didn't bother to look around, and came to the man's side in three steps at a time, stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and asked, "Yuehua, is that you? Are you okay?" ?”

As he spoke, Nuonuo gently turned the man over.However, what surprised her was that it was a petite woman who appeared in front of her.

This woman has picturesque eyebrows, a pair of pupils are like snake eyes, exuding a faint yellow light, and her hair is also golden yellow.Perhaps it was because of the fight, the woman's clothes in front of her were a little disheveled, revealing her round and tender shoulders and her delicate collarbone, she looked charming and pure, and it really made people unable to move their eyes away.

Nuonuo couldn't help taking a second look, and noticed that there was a string of crystal pendants on the woman's slender, snow-white neck. The pendants didn't know what material they were made of. Even if they were hidden in the clothes, they still emitted A little bit of starlight is very beautiful.

After watching it for about five or six seconds, Nuonuo came back to his senses, and asked in surprise, "You are Yuehua? You... you are a woman?!"

As if she didn't expect her real body to be seen, Yuehua could only smile wryly in response to Nuonuo's shock, but just as the corners of her mouth raised a slight arc, Nuonuo found that her smile disappeared instantly. Instead, two eyes stared at her back, motionless.

Nuonuo secretly yelled that it was not good, and before she had time to think about it, she rolled on the spot while holding Yuehua in her arms. As soon as she took a step, she heard a "swish" sound coming from behind, and then something settled into the ground the sound of.

The cave is very narrow, Nuonuo can only jump around among the vines with Yuehua in his arms.But fortunately, with the cover of these vines, the person who did it was also a little lost. He shot many arrows in a row, but he failed to hurt Nuonuo and Yuehua.
