Chapter 174: The Cave of the Gods: The True Appearances of the Gods 2

However, he still did not ask any more questions and said, "Since Sanlang thinks it is better not to watch it, then we should be cautious."

Hua Cheng nodded slightly, and the two continued to move forward. At this time, they came to another fork in the road. Hua Cheng went straight to the left. Xie Lian paused and did not follow him. Hua Cheng turned around and asked, "What's going on?"

Xie Lian asked, “San Lang has never been to this cave, right?”

Hua Cheng said: "Of course."

Xie Lian asked, “Then why did San Lang choose the left side so confidently?”

Hua Cheng said: "I'm not sure, I'm just wandering around blindly."


Xie Lian said, “Since you’ve never been here before, how can you just walk around blindly? Shouldn’t you carefully consider which side you choose?”

Hua Cheng smiled and said, "It's because I've never been here before that I'm just wandering around blindly. I don't know anything about the situation here anyway, so I might as well try my luck. And my luck has always been good."


Although this is true, in fact, every time the two of them traveled together, they always looked to Xie Lian to decide which way to go. It was rare for Hua Cheng to take the initiative to lead the way. Xie Lian nodded, and the two were about to step into the cave on the left, when suddenly, Xie Lian said, "Wait! - Sanlang, did you hear that?"

Hua Cheng said: "What?"

Xie Lian said, “There’s a voice on the right.”


Hua Cheng's expression changed slightly. He listened attentively for a while and said, "Brother, I'm afraid you heard it wrong. It's not true."

Xie Lian said, “Really! Listen carefully, it’s a man’s voice!”


Hua Cheng listened for a while, frowned and said: "I really didn't hear it."


Xie Lian was stunned for a moment, thinking, “Could this be another hallucination?”

Hua Cheng said: "Your Highness, something is fishy. I'm afraid it's a trick. I suggest we go out first."

After hesitating for a moment, Xie Lian said, “No! Maybe it’s Nanfeng and Fuyao. I should go over and take a look!”

After saying that, he ran away. Hua Cheng said behind him: "Brother! Don't walk around!"

However, listening to the faint shouting, the other party must have fallen into an extremely dangerous situation. I am afraid that there is no time to lose, so Xie Lian did not dare to be careless and quickly ran into the road on the right. The deeper he went, the clearer the man's roar became. Xie Lian was happy: "It's really Nanfeng and Fuyao!"

After wandering around for an unknown amount of time, they finally found the source of the sound, which was a large cave. There was no statue in the cave, but there was a deep pit. The voices of Nanfeng and Fuyao came from the bottom of the pit. It seemed that both of them were trapped at the bottom of the pit and could not climb out, but they were still energetically cursing at each other below, so their lives should not be in danger for the time being. It was too dark to see clearly, and Xie Lian was on top, with his hands cupped to his mouth, shouting down: "Hey! What's wrong with you?"


When the two people at the bottom of the pit heard someone coming, they immediately stopped arguing. Fuyao's voice said, "Your Highness? Is that you? Pull us up quickly!"

Nan Feng didn’t say anything. Xie Lian was surprised and asked, “Can’t you climb out? Isn’t this pit deep? What’s going on down there?”

Perhaps because of the quarrel, Fuyao was now quite angry and said, "Nonsense! If you could have climbed up, you would have climbed up long ago. Your Highness, can't you see for yourself?"

Xie Lian narrowed his eyes and said, “I can’t see clearly. Do you still have the magic power? Can you raise a palm flame to see what’s going on below? If you can’t, I’ll throw a fire down…” Who knew that before he finished speaking, the two people below said in unison, “No!!!”

Their voices of stopping him were simply horrified. Fuyao said again: "Don't light the fire!"

If we can’t light a fire, we can only use other methods to illuminate the place. Xie Lian’s first reaction was to turn around and say, “San Lang…”

However, Hua Cheng did not catch up. Behind him, there was no one. Xie Lian was slightly startled, first feeling a little uneasy, then feeling strange. There was no way he could have lost him, right?


Since entering this cave of gods, Hua Cheng has become strange, and Xie Lian couldn't tell what was wrong. He looked left and right, and suddenly found a small silver butterfly perched on his shoulder. He touched it tentatively and said, "...Hello?"

The dead butterfly was lightly touched by his fingertips, and it fluttered its wings, but did not fly away, as if it was just fluttering for him to see. Along the way, Xie Lian heard Hua Cheng say that his silver butterflies were divided into several categories. He didn't know what category this one was or what it was responsible for, but no matter what category it was, it would be fine to take a look, so he asked, "Can you help me go down and take a look?"

As expected, the silver butterfly flapped its wings and flew down. Xie Lian said, “Thank you!” When it flew to the bottom of the pit, a faint silver light illuminated the situation below. Xie Lian couldn’t help but slightly widen his eyes.

The dark bottom of the pit was covered with a thick layer of white silk bed!

Nanfeng and Fuyao were almost wrapped in the silk cocoon, like small flies caught in a spider web. They were bruised and bloody, and I wonder if it was because of the fight just now. Xie Lian couldn't help but think that it was a good thing that he didn't act rashly, otherwise if he threw a fire, the whole bottom of the pit would be on fire in an instant. He said: "What's going on? Is that spider silk? Could this be the lair of the spider spirit?"


Fuyao said: "I don't know! Anyway, I can't break free!"

He was anxious to get away. Nan Feng's expression was a little subtle, as if he wanted to ask for help, but when he saw that it was Xie Lian, he swallowed his words and said, "Don't get off yet. This thread is very tough. It's hard to get rid of it once it sticks to you."

Xie Lian said, “I won’t come down.”

After thinking for a while, he tied one end of Ruo Xie to the hilt of Fang Xin Sword, and prepared to hang the sword down to give it a try. Unexpectedly, when Ruo Xie sneaked halfway, he was spotted by the spider silk, which quickly came up to him, as if to teach him a lesson, and frightened him so much that he shrank back. However, he was still a step too late, and he was entangled by the spider silk, which tied a knot and suddenly pulled him down, and Xie Lian, who was holding him, was also pulled down.

I never expected this spider silk to be so strong and sensitive!

As soon as Xie Lian fell into the pit, the white silk quickly rushed up and tied him up. The rest of the spider silk was slowly flowing and crawling, reinforcing the "cocoons" on Nanfeng and Fuyao's bodies. Fuyao was so angry that she said, "Why did you fall down too! This is great, the three of us are dumbfounded! Let's die here together!"

Nan Feng said: "What do you have to complain about? It's all for saving us!"

Xie Lian rolled over and said, “Hahahaha, hahahaha, hahahahaha…”

The other two looked at him in astonishment, and Fu Yao said, "Did you fall and hurt your brain? Are you going crazy?"

Tears welled up in Xie Lian’s eyes as he managed to say, “No… no, hahahaha… what’s up with these spider silks… what am I doing… I feel so itchy, I can’t take it anymore… hahahaha…”

As soon as he fell, the silk bed below him caught him very softly, and the spider silk that was wrapped around him was also very gentle and lingering. Although it was tying him up, it was tickling him back and forth, making him feel as if he was being tickled. Xie Lian curled up into a ball, resisting stubbornly, saying, "No, no, wait! Stop! Stop! I'm scared! Stop!!!" The white silk then tied his hands behind his back, holding him still. Nanfeng and Fuyao both looked at him for a while, and Fuyao said, "Why do these spider silks tie us up so tightly, but tie him up so casually? They don't even cover his face."

Xie Lian finally caught his breath and said, “You, your faces aren’t covered either?”

Fuyao rolled her eyes and said, "I covered it before, and I tore it open with my teeth after I woke up. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to scream."

Xie Lian tried to struggle. The spider silk was indeed very tough. In addition, he had just laughed too hard and his ribs were aching. He couldn’t use any strength for the time being, so he decided to rest for a while and lay down and asked, “How on earth did you two get here?”

Fuyao said, "I don't know. There was an avalanche just now, and the snow was falling like the sky was falling. When I woke up, I was here."

Xie Lian said, “No, no, no, what I’m asking is, why did you come to Tonglu Mountain?”

When Fuyao was talking about this, she became angry: "I came here to chase after the ghost Lan Chang and her child. Who knows why?!"

Nan Feng said: "Me! I am also here to track down the mother and child..."

Fuyao said, "Then go chase them! Why are you hitting me?! My... my general has said that the fetal spirit has nothing to do with him, and he didn't kill it! You are really being taken for granted, you can't be a good person!"

Xie Lian said as if it was normal, “Alright, alright, stop arguing. I understand the situation. You guys should stop fighting for now and stop arguing. You guys just broke the snow mountain down with your quarrels. Can’t you just calm down for a while? Let’s work out a solution together.”


Nan Feng was also angry: "Don't you know what kind of person your general is? No wonder others doubt him now!"

Fuyao glared: "What did you say? Say it again if you dare!"

Nan Feng's eyes were glaring even more fiercely than his: "More guts than you! I'll say it again: you don't have good intentions at all. You just think you can show kindness to those you don't like, and you're secretly proud of it. You're just trying to satisfy yourself and wait to see others laugh at you. Stop saying you're being kind, and don't think of yourself as a good person. A real good person is not like you, you've never been one!"

Veins appeared on Fuyao's forehead, and the corners of his mouth twitched as he said, "You are simply imagining things and talking nonsense!"

Nan Feng said: "You know in your heart whether it is nonsense or not, don't I know you?"

Fuyao's veins crawled all the way to his neck: "What qualifications do you have to criticize me? Standing so high up and looking down at others, aren't you afraid of breaking your legs by accident?"

Nan Feng said: "I am better than you in every way! Do you think no one knows about the shit you did?!"

When he mentioned this, Fuyao seemed to get angry and embarrassed: "...Yes! Okay, I admit it! But how much better are you than me?! You boast about being loyal, but you forgot about your boss because you had a wife. Your wife and son are the most important! Everyone is for themselves, and they all value themselves the most! You are not ashamed to keep picking on my little things!"

Hearing him mention "wife and son", Nan Feng flew into a rage: "Fuck you! ... Me? You?"

Although the two of them couldn’t move, they were already fighting like crazy. Unconsciously, they had changed their nicknames for each other from “your general” and “my general” to “you” and “me”. Because they were too excited, they didn’t realize what they had revealed. Only now did they react a little. Xie Lian had already stopped talking.

Nanfeng and Fuyao turned their heads to look at Xie Lian. They saw Xie Lian silently rolling on the silk bed, turning over, turning his back to them, and said, "Um... I didn't see anything. No, I didn't hear anything."

“…”

“…”

Xie Lian faced the stone wall and said in a gentle voice, “Do you want to continue? Well, regarding what you just said, I won’t comment on anything else, but I actually think that my wife and son are the most important. That’s right. It’s human nature. Let’s not dwell on the past, let’s find a way out first…”

"..." Fu Yao interrupted him, "You knew it a long time ago?"

Seeing that he couldn’t keep giving it any more, Xie Lian could only say, “Well…”

Fuyao asked in disbelief: "When did you find out? Why did you find out?"

Xie Lian couldn’t bear to tell the truth, so he just said, “I forgot.”

The real answer is that it was a long time ago. He had had a vague suspicion since the time with Junshan, and by the time he reached Banyueguan, he was already certain of it.

What little military officer from Zhongtian? He doesn't exist. "Nanfeng" and "Fuyao" are just two little clones of Feng Xin and Mu Qing!

Fuyao seemed unable to believe that his true identity had been exposed like this, and kept asking, "When did you find out? How did you find out? There must have been a chance, where is the flaw!"

“…”

Xie Lian really couldn't bear to tell the truth. There was no need for an opportunity at all, these two people were full of flaws!

After all, the three of them grew up together. How could Xie Lian not be familiar with their words and deeds? From the fake names to the identical personalities, it was really easy to guess who they were. If he couldn't guess who was under those two skins, wouldn't he have lived in vain for so many years?

However, there are some things that he cannot say, and some things that he cannot do. For example, he must take into account his image as a priest, so he cannot roll his eyes or curse at others. But if he changes his identity, he will be more relaxed and unrestrained, so Xie Lian feels that there is no need to expose it.

Fuyao, no, now, should be called Muqing. Muqing gritted his teeth and said grimly: "...So, you, already knew who we are, but you still didn't say anything, just, quietly watched us perform, right?"
