"That's great. He appeared. Big brother is so amazing.”Seeing this, Zhong Ling rolled her eyes and grabbed Zhao Yi's arm with a cheer. She whispered,""Big brother, since you know everything, you shouldn't have lied to Ling 'er. This is a scam. Scamming doesn't count as winning.”
"Haha!" Zhao Yi smiled and shook his head." Don't try to fool me, you naughty girl. As the saying goes,'if you're willing to concede defeat, then don't concede defeat.' I didn't ask you to make this bet. Besides, nine out of ten gambles are scams. This Qian girl should understand. If you don't believe me, you can ask her.”
"Humph! Big brother, you're a big bad guy. You're too shameless.”Seeing that she had failed, Zhong Ling immediately pouted and puffed up her cheeks. Her face was filled with displeasure as she cursed loudly.
"Humph! Little girl, Zhao Yi is right. Out of ten gambles, nine are scams. You will only become a joke.”Seeing Zhong Ling like this, Qian Xue immediately mocked. She just couldn't stand the intimacy between Zhong Ling and Zhao Yi.
Although Qian Xue was Zhao Yi's captive and servant girl, she would never admit it. She was the dignified Fourth Young Miss of the Qian Family. She was proud and arrogant, so how could she admit such things?
Moreover, Qian Xue was a spoiled and unruly person. Although she had no special relationship with Zhao Yi, she had already treated Zhao Yi as her personal property after allowing him to take advantage of her so many times. How could she let Zhong Ling get her hands on him?
Of course! There were other reasons why Qian Xue thought so highly of Zhao Yi. For example, that jade pendant. Qian Xue seemed to know a little about Zhao Yi's mysterious identity.
"Alright, let's go in and find the secret manual. I can't wait!”Seeing that Qian Xue and Zhong Ling were about to start quarreling again, Zhao Yi quickly stopped them.
He even took the lead to bend down and enter the cave. Seeing this, Zhong Ling and Qian Xue could only suppress their desire to quarrel and followed closely behind. After walking for more than ten steps, the cave was already completely dark.
"Little girl, Qian girl, be careful. If there's any movement, lie down immediately. I don't know if there's a trap here. If he had known earlier, he would have brought a torch in.”Zhao Yi stretched out his hands. Every step he took, he would test the situation first. After all, this was the real world, not the novels that Zhao Yi read in his previous life. It was normal for there to be some traps. In short, there was no harm in being careful.
"I know, big brother. You should be careful too.”Zhong Ling could hear the concern in Zhao Yi's words, and a sweet feeling instantly rose in her heart. It was as if she had eaten honey. After Zhao Yi's attack on her little butt, she and Zhao Yi had become much closer.
As for Qian Xue, when she heard the sweetness in Zhong Ling's tone, she was instantly displeased. She did not say anything and only followed behind silently.
Zhao Yi felt that his feet were flat as if he was walking on a stone road. He guessed that the path in the cave must have been man-made and must be a passageway.
"Be careful, the terrain seems to be getting lower and lower.”After walking for a while, Zhao Yi felt that the road was continuously tilting downwards, obviously getting lower and lower, so he couldn't help but remind him.
"Yes! " This is…" Suddenly, Zhao Yi's right hand touched a cold, round object. The moment he touched it, the round object made a clear clang. He reached out to touch it again, and it turned out to be a knocker.
"Since there is a knocker, there must be a door." After thinking about it, Zhao Yi fumbled around with both hands and immediately felt more than ten bowl-sized door nails. His heart instantly relaxed and he pushed them hard.
" Creak…" The door opened, but he still couldn't see anything. He only felt a pungent smell, causing Zhao Yi to hold his breath.
"Wow! It was so unforgettable that she almost couldn't breathe. How long had it been since someone had lived here?”At the same time, Zhong Ling's complaint was heard.
Hearing Zhong Ling's complaint, Qian Xue said disdainfully,""Only when no one lives here can we come here to look for secret manuals. Otherwise, we'll become thieves!”
"This cave seems to have been empty for a long time, which is why it smells so moldy.”Zhao Yi continued to move forward. Suddenly, there was a bang as his forehead hit something."F * ck! There was another door. What bad luck. He didn't fall into the trap, but he crashed into the door. What bad luck.”
"Big brother, are you okay?"
"Tsk! Careless and unworthy of great responsibilities."
"I'm fine!" Zhao Yi was happy with Zhong Ling's relationship with him, but he didn't care about Qian Xue's sarcasm. Luckily, he had walked very slowly just now, so the collision didn't hurt much. He stretched his hand out and realized that there was a door in front of him.
"Creak!" Zhao Yi exerted strength and slowly pushed the door open. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he could not help but squint his eyes as he carefully examined the situation behind the door.
He saw that he was in a circular stone room. Light came from the left, but it was hazy and did not seem like the sky.
"We've finally arrived. It's really like the description in the novel.”Seeing this, Zhao Yi felt relieved. He smiled and said,"Alright, little girl, Qian girl, come in! There shouldn't be any danger here, but you should be careful. Don't touch anything.”
After saying that, Zhao Yi walked towards the light and suddenly saw a prawn swimming past the window.
"Yes! It really was the bottom of the lake. The people who built this place really spent a lot of effort!”Seeing this, Zhao Yi was greatly surprised. He walked a few steps forward and saw a carp with rotten patterns leisurely passing by the window.
"Haha! I see." Zhao Yi took a closer look at the window and suddenly realized that it was a large crystal embedded in the stone wall. It was about the size of a copper basin, and the light came through the crystal.
Zhao Yi looked out of the crystal table, only to see the green water flowing continuously. Fish, prawns, and other aquatic creatures were swimming back and forth. As far as his eyes could see, there was no end to it.
Looking at the crystal in front of him, Zhao Yi sighed again."This large crystal is really an extremely rare treasure! If he brought it to the modern world, he didn't know how much it would cost.”
"Amazing, this is actually the bottom of the Sword Lake. The person who lives here must be a senior expert.”Seeing this marvelous scene, Zhong Ling couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. Then, his heart stirred as he smiled and said,"Since the person living here is a senior expert, his martial arts must be very powerful. Let's hurry up and find the secret manual! After I master this senior's martial arts, I will be able to jump off the cliff like big brother and not be injured at all. Hehe, that's great…"
"The senior who lives here is indeed very powerful.”Hearing this, Qian Xue also expressed her agreement. Then, she said proudly,"Hey! Zhao Yi, do you know which senior lives here?”
Zhao Yi smiled and said," I know. The current leader of the Carefree Sect, Wu Yazi, and his wife, the current Empress Dowager of the Western Xia, Li Qiu Shui, used to live here."”
