The ugly girl's nirvana, the disabled prince's love
Chapter 221 Creepy
Shen Yiran couldn't help feeling a little confused, but seeing how anxious Banxia was, he didn't ask any more questions. He just nodded slightly and followed her into the cave.
As soon as you step into the cave, a damp and slightly cool air hits you in the face, as if it is a mysterious greeting from the ancient cave, which instantly makes your heart chill.
At this time, it was already dusk outside the cave. The soft light was not very strong, and only gave the outside of the cave a faint golden glow.
The further you go in, the weaker the light becomes, as if it is swallowed by darkness, until it becomes a pitch-black darkness that is almost indissoluble. It makes you feel as if you are in the belly of a giant beast, feeling depressed and terrified.
Shen Yiran frowned, looking at the almost invisible road ahead, secretly anxious. At this speed, he didn't know when he could reach the abnormal place that Banxia mentioned.
Suddenly, she had an idea and thought of the store in the mysterious space. She closed her eyes, focused her mind, and quickly entered the store interface. After searching for a while, she successfully found three flashlights and immediately completed the purchase operation with her mind.
When she opened her eyes again, Shen Yiran had three more flashlights in her hands. She gently pressed the switch of one of them, and it made a "click" sound, which was particularly abrupt in the silent and dark cave.
In an instant, a bright beam of light shot out, cutting through the thick darkness and illuminating a small area ahead.
The cave walls, rocks and stalactites that were originally hidden in the darkness are revealed one by one under the light, and the rugged appearance of the rocks is eerie under the interweaving of light and shadow.
Banxia and Wang Lei, who were walking in front, were frightened by the bright light and instantly became alert. Banxia suddenly protected Shen Yiran behind her, holding the dagger tightly in her hand, and looked around vigilantly, as if the enemy would jump out from the darkness at any time.
Wang Lei quickly turned sideways and assumed a defensive posture, with one hand on his sword and the other hand taking out a lighter from his arms, but the faint flame seemed insignificant under the strong light of the flashlight.
Seeing this, Shen Yiran hurriedly explained: "Don't be afraid, this is a treasure I just got, called a flashlight, it can emit a very bright light to help us see the road clearly."
As he said this, he handed the other two flashlights to Banxia and Wang Lei.
The two took it and looked at this strange thing with suspicion. Shen Yiran patiently explained how to use it and demonstrated the switch operation.
Looking at the beam of light that lit up again, Banxia and Wang Lei couldn't help but widen their eyes with amazement.
Banxia exclaimed: "This treasure is so practical! With it, it is much more convenient to use in this dark cave!"
Wang Lei nodded, his eyes changing from vigilance to joy, and said, "Yes, don't worry about falling because you can't see the road clearly, Princess, your ability is really admirable!"
Shen Yiran smiled slightly and said, "Okay, now that we have the lighting tools, let's speed up and go inside. I really want to see what the anomaly is."
After that, the three of them continued to walk deeper into the cave with the help of flashlights. Three bright beams of light were like three sharp swords piercing the darkness, leading them to uncover the mystery deep in the cave.
When they arrived at a hall, Banxia said, "Princess, this is the unusual place I mentioned. When we came in here earlier, we heard some strange noises."
At this moment, a strange cry came from the deep darkness, faint and intermittent, echoing in the silent and empty hall, making people feel creepy.
Shen Yiran held the flashlight tightly and shone the beam in the direction of the sound, but the darkness seemed endless and the strong light could only barely penetrate a short distance before being swallowed up.
Wang Lei subconsciously placed his hand on his sword, looked around vigilantly, and whispered, "This sound is very weird. I felt something was wrong the last time I heard it, but I can't find the source of the sound."
Just when everyone was on high alert, the cry suddenly became clearer, like some huge creature roaring in pain, mixed with a sharp whistle that seemed to pierce people's eardrums.
Immediately afterwards, a rustling sound came from one side of the hall, as if something was crawling quickly on the ground.
Shen Yiran's heartbeat suddenly quickened, and she couldn't help but recall the giant python she encountered in the cave when she fell off the cliff last time. She felt a surge of fear, and her body trembled slightly.
She tried hard to calm herself down. Then, she signaled Banxia and Wang Lei to get together and form a defensive formation.
Suddenly, a huge black figure rushed out from the darkness, so fast that people had no time to react.
When it came a little closer, everyone could see with the help of flashlight that it was a lizard-like monster.
Its body is several times larger than that of an ordinary lizard, and its body is covered with black scales that gleam with a strange luster under the light.
Its eyes were like small green lights, emitting a sinister light, and it was staring at them fiercely.
In panic, Banxia and Wang Lei saw the monster coming at them aggressively, and subconsciously attacked the lizard, clenching their weapons in their hands as if ready to fight.
Shen Yiran suddenly stretched out his arm to stop them, his eyes full of confusion and alertness.
She always felt that this lizard was strange, especially when she looked at its eyes. Why did only one eye glow with an eerie green light?
Without thinking too much, Shen Yiran quickly shone the flashlight on its other eye. Under the bright light, the condition of that eye was clearly revealed - it was red and swollen, even festering, and it was shocking to see.
At this moment, Shen Yiran had a flash of inspiration in his mind and remembered the field life-saving class he had taken when he was in the army.
The teacher said in class that lizards generally do not actively attack people, but only if they are not injured.
Judging from the condition of this lizard, its eyes were obviously severely injured, which is why it was able to attack so ferociously.
Shen Yiran also recalled that when he entered the cave, he noticed some unburned wood at the entrance, which proved that someone had stayed there. So the lizard's eyes were most likely stabbed by those people.
Suddenly, a bold idea came to Shen Yiran's mind. The Glitter Tiger and the Flame Wolf could communicate with her, so this lizard should be able to communicate with her too, right?
But she was a little hesitant. After all, this was something she had never tried before. If it didn't work, wouldn't it put everyone in a more dangerous situation? But at the moment, there was no other way but to take the risk and give it a try.
She quickly said to Banxia and Wang Lei: "Don't hurt it yet. Let me communicate with it."
When the two heard this, they couldn't help but widen their eyes and looked at Shen Yiran in disbelief. They were full of doubts and didn't understand what Shen Yiran was up to.
But out of trust in her, he did not ask any further questions. Instead, he separated as she said and quickly moved to her left and right sides, still holding the weapons tightly in his hands, just in case.
Shen Yiran took a deep breath and slowly took a step forward. She carefully shone the flashlight in front of the lizard, trying to make the light softer so as not to irritate it again.
Then, she said in the softest voice possible: "We won't hurt you. I can heal your eyes. We're just staying here for one night."
As soon as he finished speaking, the lizard made a low hissing sound.
Then, a slightly hoarse but understandable voice sounded in Shen Yiran's mind: "Really? Will you heal my wounds?"
