"Unfortunately, we didn't bring any water."
Mo Yan licked his slightly dry lips and shrugged helplessly. Although he said this, he was actually unwilling to take out precious water to wash it.
"It's good that your intentions are here." Zhoumin spoke about the technological world's attitude towards festivals, but her expression was completely different.
However, Mo Yan was still somewhat shocked.
After cleaning up, although the ancestral hall could not be considered brand new, it was not as dirty and decayed as before.
The passage of time filled this place with the depth and weight of history, as if a thousand years ago was unfolding before their eyes.
Although the appearance of the statue was still unclear, the dignity was deeply embedded in it.
Mo Yan couldn't help but feel a little emotional. In the world of science and technology, he was already so magnificent. In this world of magic, the man who stood at the top of the world in the past, how shocking was his charm!
"Let's go and look deeper. I reckon we can find a way out.”Mo Yan pointed at a door behind the ancestral hall. It was a magical wooden door that had not rotted until now.
However, it didn't seem like it could be opened.
"Yes." Zhoumin did not object. After all, the path of retreat behind them had been sealed. They could not find a way to open it, so they could only move forward.
The two of them did not act immediately. Instead, they walked out of the ancestral hall and rested in the corridor. After all, cleaning such a large ancestral hall consumed a lot of physical strength.
Zhoumin hugged her knees as she squatted in the corner. Suddenly, her stomach made a rumbling sound and she quickly hugged her stomach.
" You know you're hungry now, right? I told you to lose weight and not eat…" Mo Yan looked at her in annoyance. Without waiting for her to retort, he threw away the burnt coat on the stone stick and then dug through the ashes.
As a result, a fragrance magically gushed out.
"It smells so good!" In fact, Zhoumin regretted not having dinner. After the fragrance surged out, her eyes instantly lit up as she stared at the black ash.
Then, he saw Mo Yan take out a ball of golden mushrooms from inside.
"I found this in the karst cave where I was resting just now. Although it's only used to support combustion, it should be able to barely fill your stomach. It's just that enoki mushrooms are not easy to digest.”
Mo Yan handed it to Zhou Min.
"Aren't you going to eat?" Zhou Min didn't take it.”
"I don't miss you. I've had dinner…and I'm very full.”Zhou Min's cake party was famous all over the city, so no matter where they held the party, they definitely wouldn't be able to eat cake. In that case, why didn't they eat more for dinner? At the very least, she would have the strength to smash people with cake after she was full.
Moreover, this kind of barbecued food made people feel thirsty easily. Mo Yan, who was already dehydrated from excessive exercise, would probably have to drink urine if he were to do this again.
"Thank you." Only then did Zhoumin take it. At first, she was still a little ladylike, but then she started to eat freely.
"Without seasoning, it probably doesn't taste good.”Mo Yan was a little helpless. In fact, his craftsmanship was very good.
"This is already very good. Although it's a little burnt, the meat is delicate and chewy, with a fragrance and a special taste. To be honest, it's really delicious!" As Zhoumin ate, her mouth was clearly stuffed, but she was surprisingly able to speak clearly.
In fact, what Mo Yan and Zhou Min did not know was that because these enoki mushrooms grew in extremely deep underground karst caves, they absorbed the mineral essence and salt of the earth. Just the dry roasting was extremely fragrant, and it was an extremely famous dish internationally. There was a karst cave city in China that developed by producing this underground enoki mushroom.
"Is that so?" Mo Yan was slightly surprised.
However, he still had no intention of tasting it.
After they finished eating, Mo Yan and Zhou Min leaned against the wall and dozed off.
Mo Yan looked at her and quietly bit her lips. The fresh blood that flowed out of his lips slightly moistened his already burning and thirsty throat, and he felt slightly better.
This really couldn't go on…
Although Zhoumin had been trying her best to maintain her vitality, it could be seen from the way she leaned against the wall that Zhoumin was already exhausted.
After all, the battle with the ape rats was not easy. In addition, they had not eaten dinner. They had followed Mo Yan all the way underground. Even if they were carried on their backs, it was not easy.
" I can only hope that there is an exit to the surface behind this ancestral hall…" Although he said this, Mo Yan did not have much hope.
After all, if there really was an exit, this ancestral hall would have been discovered a thousand years ago.
However, since the ventilation here was good, it meant that there was still a high chance of finding a crack in the karst cave that led to the ground.
He could only hope that it was not caused by a magic array.
……
On the surface.
While Mo Yan was still carrying Zhou Min and getting lost in the tunnel, the Ape Rat Cave had already been dug through again.
Although they were connected in all directions, the City Hunters and Uncle Long quickly arrived at the natural karst cave through the blood stains and the marks left by Mo Yan.
"This is…the mother of the Ape Rats!" Uncle Long looked at the charred black corpse and could not help but be slightly surprised.
What surprised him even more was that there were two or three scattered corpses of Ape Rats in other places. Coupled with the traces of burning flames all over the ground, it was very obvious that a great battle had occurred here!
" Looks like I underestimated my employer…" Uncle Long felt relieved.
As long as Mo Yan was not killed instantly, everything would be easy to handle.
After that, the City Hunters also came down. After checking, they confirmed that this was indeed the nest of a nest of Ape Rats. Then, they successfully discovered the three holes.
However…
"Two of them are dead ends. They are probably tunnels that have just been dug!”After receiving this report, Captain Xu walked down the so-called old path.
Uncle Long also followed him subconsciously.
In the end, if he could find the correct tunnel, he could easily break through the tunnel that Mo Yan had destroyed with the power of earth magic. Then, he could find Mo Yan and Zhou Min who were walking not far away.
But unfortunately…
The City Hunters had once again brushed past success---in the end, Mo Yan's decision to save himself was actually right.
They had been lost for two hours, slept for three hours, cleaned for half an hour, and dawdled for half an hour. For a total of six hours, these idiots had not found the place. They had been running at the fork in the road with their heads down.
