My Xiuxian painting style is not right

Chapter 162 Online Confrontation (Page 13)

The air in the cave was cold and damp, and a faint earthy smell penetrated the nostrils, making people feel a little uncomfortable.

She followed Chen Yu, taking every step carefully, for fear of stepping on something strange.

The stone walls of the cave are uneven, and some places are covered with green moss, which is wet and looks slippery.

Above the head, the stalactites are of various shapes, some like sharp swords, some like huge teeth, which look particularly eerie and terrifying in the dim light.

Chen Yu held a high-intensity flashlight in his hand, and the beam of light swayed in the cave, illuminating the road ahead.

He stopped from time to time, kicking the gravel on the ground with his feet, or touching the lines on the stone wall with his hands, as if looking for some clues.

"The ghostly aura in this cave is much weaker than before." He turned and said to the three beauties behind him, "It seems that the Nether Stone is really useful."

Liu Ruyan waved a folding fan, the red fan blade was particularly conspicuous in the dim light.

She walked to the stone wall, carefully observing the patterns on it, and gently brushed her slender fingers across the stone wall, feeling the texture of the stone.

"The pattern on this stone is really strange. It looks like some kind of writing, or like a totem."

She turned to look at Chen Yu, "Chen Yu, do you recognize these?"

Chen Yu leaned over to take a look and shook his head. "Who recognizes this thing? It must be some ancient graffiti left behind."

He pulled out a bottle of mineral water from his backpack, unscrewed the cap and took a sip. "I'm so thirsty. This cave is so hot and stuffy, it's worse than a sauna."

Lin Qingxue followed Chen Yu silently, scanning the surrounding environment vigilantly.

She held the ice-blue jade pendant in her hand, which emitted a faint chill, making her feel a little more comfortable.

She didn't say anything, but just silently observed everything around her, always keeping alert.

When Shangguan Wan'er heard Chen Yu say he was thirsty, she took out a bottle of juice from her small backpack and handed it to Chen Yu.

"Master, you should drink some juice too."

Chen Yu took the juice and patted Shangguan Wan'er's head with a smile. "Wan'er is so considerate."

He unscrewed the bottle cap and took a big sip. The sour and sweet juice made him feel a lot more energetic.

They continued walking along the winding cave. The path in the cave became narrower and narrower, and some places could only accommodate one person.

Chen Yu walked in front, using his flashlight to illuminate the road ahead from time to time, reminding the three beauties behind him to be careful with their steps.

As they walked, Chen Yu suddenly stopped. He shone his flashlight forward and saw a man in a black robe, with a pale face and dark blue lips standing there, blocking their way.

The man's eyes were flashing green, and he looked eerie and terrifying.

Liu Ruyan couldn't help but exclaim when she saw the man in black. "Who is it?"

Lin Qingxue also immediately became alert, and the jade pendant in her hand emitted a stronger chill.

Shangguan Wan'er was so scared that she hid behind Chen Yu, tightly holding onto the corner of his clothes, not daring to show her head.

Chen Yu looked up and down at the man in black, wondering if this was a ghost cultivator?

It didn't look like anything special. He took out his phone, took a picture of the man, and said, "Who are you?

Take a picture and post it on WeChat Moments. I met a cosplayer today.

The man in black was confused by Chen Yu's actions. He was stunned for a moment, then shouted angrily: "How dare you, a mortal, be so rude to me!"

Chen Yu retorted unyieldingly, "You are the audacious ghost cultivator, blocking my treasure hunt and fortune-making. Believe it or not, I will call the police to arrest you."

The audience in the live broadcast room was amused by Chen Yu's serious nonsense, and the barrage was full of "Hahaha", "The host is too naughty", and "Ghost Cultivator: I am under pressure that I shouldn't be under at this age."

The man in black had obviously never heard of the term "call the police." He frowned and asked in confusion, "Call the police?

What is calling the police?

Chen Yu cleared his throat and explained seriously, "Calling the police is, uh... an ancient ritual that can summon a more powerful being to deal with you!

If you dare to block my way again, I will call the police!" He shook the phone in his hand, as if it were some powerful magic weapon.

Liu Ruyan covered her mouth and chuckled softly, while Lin Qingxue had a blank expression on her face, but a hint of smile flashed in her eyes.

Shangguan Wan'er poked out her little head and looked curiously at the conversation between Chen Yu and the man in black, completely unaware of what was going on.

The man in black looked at the phone in Chen Yu's hand, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.

He had lived for hundreds of years and had never seen such a strange thing, nor did he know what Chen Yu meant by "alarm".

He hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to find out Chen Yu's background first.

"Humph, a mere mortal dares to act so pretentiously in front of me!"

The man in black snorted coldly, stretched out a dry finger, and pointed at Chen Yu, "Tell me your name, I will not kill nameless people!"

Chen Yu put his phone back into his pocket, dusted himself off, and said nonchalantly, "I'm Chen Yu, and I'm not going to change my name.

What about you? What’s your name? Which department are you from? Are you a temporary worker or a regular employee?

The man in black was a little confused by Chen Yu's series of questions. He was stunned for a moment before he reacted and said angrily, "How dare you!

I am the Ghost General under the Ghost King, Black Wind!"

"Ghost King? Which Ghost King? The King of Hell?" Chen Yu asked curiously.

Hei Feng sneered, "Lord Yama? Humph, he's just a puppet!

The real Ghost King is the Netherworld Emperor!"

"Emperor of the Underworld? I've never heard of him." Chen Yu scratched his head. "Forget it, no matter which ghost king's subordinate you are, you have to get out of my way today. I want to go in and look for treasure!"

"Treasure hunting? You think you can?" Heifeng sneered, "This cave hides the most precious treasure from my ghost world. How can a mortal like you get your hands on it?"

When Chen Yu heard about the treasure, he immediately became interested. "A treasure from the ghost world?

What is it? Tell me, maybe I can help you find it.

Hei Feng looked at Chen Yu warily and said, "Don't even think about tricking me!

This treasure is…” He suddenly stopped, realizing that he had almost let the cat out of the bag.

Seeing this, Chen Yu hurriedly said, "What is it? Tell me quickly, don't keep me in suspense!"

Heifeng snorted coldly and ignored Chen Yu. Instead, he waved his ghost claws and attacked Chen Yu.

"Since you're determined to die, don't blame me for being rude!"

Seeing this, Chen Yu quickly hid behind Lin Qingxue. "Qingxue, protect me!"

Lin Qingxue shook her head helplessly, the jade pendant in her hand flashed, and an ice-blue light shot towards Heifeng.

Heifeng was caught off guard and was hit by the ice-blue light. He let out a scream and his body was frozen into an ice sculpture.

Chen Yu poked his head out from behind Lin Qingxue, looked at Heifeng who was frozen into an ice sculpture, and said in surprise: "Wow, Qingxue, your moves are too powerful!

It’s a one-shot kill!”

Lin Qingxue put away the jade pendant and said calmly, "This is just a trivial skill, not worth mentioning."

Liu Ruyan waved her folding fan and said with a smile, "Qingxue's Ice Art is famously powerful. It's easy to deal with this little devil."

Shangguan Wan'er also walked out from behind Chen Yu, looking curiously at Heifeng, who had been frozen into an ice sculpture, and asked in a low voice, "Master, is he dead?"

Chen Yu walked up to Heifeng and knocked on the ice sculpture, making a crisp sound.

"He's not dead, he's just frozen." He turned to look at Lin Qingxue, "Qingxue, can you thaw him out?

I want to ask him about the treasure in the ghost world."

Lin Qingxue hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded. She activated the jade pendant again, and a warm current flowed towards Heifeng. The ice sculpture slowly melted, and Heifeng regained his freedom.

As soon as Heifeng regained his freedom, he immediately took a few steps back vigilantly, keeping a distance from Chen Yu and others.

He looked at Lin Qingxue in horror, his eyes filled with fear. "You... who are you?"

Chen Yu smiled and said, "We are here to look for treasure. If you cooperate, we might even let you go."

Hei Feng snorted coldly and said, "You wishful thinking! Even if I die, I will not tell you the whereabouts of the ghost world's treasure!"

Chen Yu sighed helplessly. It seemed that he had no choice but to use the ultimate weapon.

He took out a bag of spicy strips from his backpack, tore open the package, and handed it to Heifeng.

"Want to eat?"

Heifeng looked at the spicy strips in Chen Yu's hand and asked in confusion, "What is this?"

Chen Yu smiled and said, "This is a delicacy. After eating it, I guarantee you won't be able to stop eating it!"

Heifeng hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't resist the temptation. He reached out to take the spicy strips, put them in his mouth and started chewing.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Chen Yu asked.

Heifeng didn't feel anything at first, but after chewing it a few times, the spicy taste of the spicy strips began to spread in his mouth. He suddenly felt a burning sensation rushing from the tip of his tongue to the top of his head, making him cough uncontrollably.

"Cough cough cough... It's so spicy! What is this?" Heifeng asked while coughing.

Chen Yu smiled and said, "It's delicious, right? This is called spicy strips, one of the most popular snacks in the world."

Heifeng recovered. Although the spicy strips were very spicy, he thought they tasted pretty good. He couldn't help but eat another one.

Heifeng chewed the spicy strips, which were so spicy that he stuck out his tongue and beads of sweat oozed out of his forehead.

"Hiss...ha...this thing is really powerful!" He said as he reached out to take another one.

Seeing this, Chen Yu smiled and took out another bag of spicy strips from his backpack and handed it to Heifeng.

"If you like it, eat more. I have plenty here."

Heifeng didn't hesitate to take the spicy strips, tore open the package, and continued to eat them with relish.

Liu Ruyan watched from the side, chuckling softly. "Chen Yu, your trick really works. It looks like you've conquered this ghost cultivator."

Chen Yu smiled proudly. "Of course. This is one of the most powerful weapons in our world. Few can resist its temptation."

He turned to look at Heifeng, "How is it? Can you tell us the whereabouts of the ghost world's treasure now?"

Heifeng's mouth was filled with spicy strips, and he said incoherently: "Hmm... wait... wait until I finish eating..."

Chen Yu shook his head helplessly. It seemed he had to wait a little longer. He turned to look at Lin Qingxue and Shangguan Wan'er, "You two should try some too. These spicy noodles are pretty good."

Lin Qingxue shook her head, indicating that she didn't like spicy food. Shangguan Wan'er curiously took a spicy strip and carefully put it in her mouth and began to chew it.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Chen Yu asked.

Shangguan Wan'er frowned, her face flushed red, and she said with tears in her eyes, "It's so spicy... Master..."

Seeing this, Chen Yu quickly took out a bottle of mineral water from his backpack and handed it to Shangguan Wan'er.

"Drink some water quickly."

Shangguan Wan'er took the mineral water and gulped down a few big mouthfuls before she recovered.

She rubbed her eyes and looked at Chen Yu aggrievedly, "Master, can you please not give me such spicy food next time?"

Chen Yu smiled and patted Shangguan Wan'er's head. "Okay, I won't give it to you next time."
