Chapter 81 The Bottom Line

Xiao Yan carried Xiao Yixian on his back and, under her command, he came to a hidden cave below the cliff. After landing, Xiao Yixian jumped down, and Xiao Yan half-knelt on the ground, his face already red.

Although he did not hold Xiao Yixian's waist, he could clearly feel her curvy figure when she lay on his back! Sensing the throbbing in his heart, Xiao Yan really did not dare to be distracted at all. He did not even touch Xiao Yixian, and she still hung on his back with her own strength.

So far, the only one who had done such an intimate thing to him was Xiao Mei, but not to mention that Xiao Yan treated Xiao Mei as a sister, Xiao Mei's figure did not grow up, at least not compared with Xiao Yixian. It was not until Xiao Yixian lay on his back that Xiao Yan realized how big a mistake he had made. He might as well have held her waist!

(Shame. Shame.)

Xiao Yan's appearance made Yao Chen shake his head. He was so embarrassed by such a small contact. He was too embarrassed to tell others!

Xiao Yixian lit the torch and looked at Xiao Yan, who slowly stood up from the ground with a little embarrassment on his face. Her eyes were full of helplessness, and she didn't even have the idea of ​​laughing at him.

This guy, has he never seen a woman before? Can't stand this?

Xiao Yixian shrugged lightly and then called out.

"Follow me."

Xiao Yan also shook his head lightly to calm his restless heart, got up and walked into the cave with Xiao Yixian.

After walking about ten meters, a heavy stone door blocked the way in front of the two. Before Xiao Yixian spoke, Xiao Yan pointed at the stone door with some excitement.

"I know this. What mechanism should be pressed to open it, right?"

When he was a child, he listened to the treasure hunting stories told by the elders in his family. What interested him most was the part of finding the mechanism.

"Isn't this natural? What are you excited about?"

"."

Xiao Yixian's words were like pouring a basin of cold water on him on the spot, which made Xiao Yan calm down instantly. The innocent fantasy of childhood seemed to disappear at this moment.

Xiao Yan personally experienced what it means to grow up.

(That's right, we are all adults now, so we should be as mature as possible.)

Xiao Yan pressed his neck and quietly watched Xiao Yixian's back as she searched for the mechanism.

After a while, Xiao Yixian found a protruding rock on the side of the stone wall. Then her face lit up and she reached out and pressed it. The stone door in front of her gradually opened to both sides, showing the whole picture inside to Xiao Yan and Xiao Yixian.

Countless gold coins, many precious medicinal materials, and three very conspicuous treasure chests.

"It's opened! It's worthy of me!!!"

Xiao Yixian rushed in happily, and Xiao Yan followed slowly behind, looking at the whole picture of the secret room.

"Hey~~~ The secret room looks like this."

Xiao Yan sighed like this, and at this time Yao Chen's excited voice suddenly sounded in his heart.

(Xiao Yanzi! It's Bingling Flame Grass!)

Bingling Flame Grass?

Xiao Yan was stunned. He had heard Yao Chen say before that it seemed to be a necessary medicine for absorbing strange fire, just like the blood lotus essence.

Xiao Yan looked over and saw a very conspicuous herb among the piled herbs. Its petals were bright red like fire, but its stems and leaves were in the shape of ice crystals, which was exactly the characteristics of the Ice Spirit Flame Grass mentioned by Yao Chen.

(You are lucky to come across two rare herbs that can subdue strange fire in one day!)

Yao Chen, who was just happy, suddenly discovered something and froze suddenly. Xiao Yan, who was about to put away the herbs, also frowned slightly, glanced at the corner, and then his pupils shrank.

It was a skeleton sitting upright on a stone chair, and there was a stone tablet next to the stone chair.

[All the things outside my body here are what I have gained in my life. I only ask that the visitors take them away safely and don’t disturb my peace. ]

Looking at the words engraved on the stone tablet, the last trace of joy in Xiao Yan’s heart completely dissipated.

This is not a treasure house, but a tomb

Feeling Xiao Yan's mood change, Yao Chen panicked and quickly persuaded him.

(Well, Xiao Yanzi, it's written above that as long as you don't disturb me and take it away safely, don't worry about it~)

Forget about other things, the Ice Spirit Flame Grass is very precious, and there is no place to buy it! At the beginning, I risked my life to find such a plant in the extremely cold land for a whole month! Yao Chen doesn't want Xiao Yan to suffer this again!

However, once Xiao Yan has made up his mind, even Yao Chen is not so easy to shake, let alone things related to his own righteousness. No matter how precious the Ice Spirit Flame Grass is, since it belongs to the owner of the tomb, I must not touch it.

Taking it without permission is stealing, no matter whether the other party is alive or dead.

If Xiao Yan breaks his principles this time because of the preciousness of the Ice Spirit Flame Grass, then Xiao Yan is very sure that he will have the next time.

Excuses are something you can find as many as you want, and people's bottom line is pushed down little by little.

Therefore, you must not make the same mistake even once, absolutely.

Xiao Yan's eyes showed a firm look, and he came to the skeleton, clasped his hands together, closed his eyes and worshiped it sincerely, and then walked out the door.

Xiao Yixian, who had just taken out the medicine digging tools from her waist bag, noticed Xiao Yan's actions and asked with some confusion.

"Hey! Where are you going? Don't you want the things?"

"You take them yourself, I'll wait for you outside the door."

Xiao Yan responded lightly.

Although he would not touch the things in the secret room, he would not stop Xiao Yixian.

For those who want to abide by their own righteousness, there is only one person left. Xiao Yan will not force others to abide by his own righteousness. It is precisely because of this that Xiao Yan has a unique liking for the upright Yun Zhi.

Feeling Xiao Yan's inner determination, Yao Chen sighed deeply.

This kid is just stubborn

But it is precisely because of this that he can have an integrity that no one can compare to, and I believe in him so much.

Yao Chen sighed like this, and then wiped away the dissatisfaction in his heart.

Forget it, think about it from another perspective. If someone breaks into my tomb for treasure after I die, I will also feel unhappy.

Yao Chen thought to himself, and suddenly realized something, widened his eyes and shouted suddenly.

(Be careful behind you!)

"Xiao Yan! Be careful!!!"

? ! !

At the moment when Yao Chen finished speaking, Xiao Yixian's panicked voice came over, and Xiao Yan felt that his shoulder was touched by a cold object. This lifeless feeling made Xiao Yan's back cold. He turned back instantly. After seeing clearly what it was, his eyes revealed a look of astonishment.

It was the skeleton that just sat on the chair! It was also the owner of this tomb!

(What's going on? He's still alive?!)

(No, he is indeed dead.) Yao Chen denied it softly and explained slowly, (It should be that he took some kind of poisonous insect before he died, and after he died, he would wake up the skeleton after sensing the breath of the living.)

As he spoke, Yao Chen's tone also became heavy.

(It seems that this person really wants to keep his legacy.)

After hearing Yao Chen's words, Xiao Yan's expression was stern, and then he stood up straight and saluted the skeleton with his hands clasped together.

"I am sorry for trespassing into your resting place without permission. I hope you will forgive me! I will take my companions away now!"

After saying this, Xiao Yan was ready to cross the skeleton to pull Xiao Yixian out. At the same time, he was tense and kept an eye on the skeleton's movements.

He just bowed just to follow his righteous habits, but Xiao Yan did not think that the skeleton could still have self-awareness.

According to Yao Chen, it is not impossible for the skeleton to suddenly attack him.

Therefore, he must be on guard.

If he really has to.

Xiao Yan's eyes flashed with apology and a hint of ruthlessness.

I can only say that I am sorry.
