Disciple, Don’t Cause Trouble, Master Won’t Leave the Mountain!-Chapter 163: The Cave

Chapter 163: The Cave

Finally… the feeling stopped…

“Jiang Yun… Jiang Yun…”

Vaguely, someone seemed to be calling him.

“Cough cough cough… cough cough cough…”

It was as if everything became calm again.

Vaguely, he seemed to see a ray of light in the darkness.

Jiang Yun immediately grabbed Qin Xiaoxi, who was still coughing, and kept drilling toward the light spot.

Puff!

Finally, the fresh air reached their nostrils again.

Jiang Yun and Qin Xiaoxi coughed and breathed heavily. It was really uncomfortable when they were buried in the snow.

“Cough cough cough… cough cough cough…” the two of them sat on the ground and kept coughing. It took them a long time to recover.

Jiang Yun, who was feeling better, quickly looked around. At this moment, they were in a cave.

This cave was about the height of four or five stories, and there were large, wet rocks on both sides. After stabilizing his breath, he could faintly hear the sound of water dripping. The cave was very dark, but compared to the darkness brought by the avalanche, this was much better. At least Jiang Yun could see the whole picture clearly in here.

Jiang Yun quickly released the guiding light and saw that the cave was surrounded by stalactites. Water droplets dripped down from the stalactites and landed on the ground. The stalactites were strangely shaped. Some looked like a hundred-year-old conch, some looked like a harp, and some fell in rows like the fangs of a monster.

“How… did we fall into the cave?” Qin Xiaoxi felt much better.

“Fortunately, we happened to run into this cave. Otherwise, we might have died in this avalanche.” Jiang Yun quickly looked behind him. The accumulated snow had already formed into a wall behind them.

It seemed that they had fallen from the top of the cave.

However, the road behind them had been completely buried by the snow.

“Jiang Yun…” at this moment, Qin Xiaoxi slowly got up and whispered Jiang Yun’s name.

“What’s wrong?” Jiang Yun quickly turned around and replied.

“Nothing…” Qin Xiaoxi wanted to say something, but she swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

Jiang Yun walked to her side.

“Don’t say anything about giving up in the future. Don’t be discouraged until the end,” Jiang Yun said.

“What? I’m just afraid that you won’t be able to hold on and you will die here.” Qin Xiaoxi pouted.

Jiang Yun shook his head helplessly and lectured Qin Xiaoxi.

Qin Xiaoxi seemed to have noticed something at this moment. She blinked her big eyes at Jiang Yun and said with a smile, “To be honest, were you really afraid that something would happen to me?”

“I don’t want to go back alone. Otherwise, how am I going to explain it to your father?”

“Hey, why are you so fierce? Besides, you wanted to pick the Holy Saint Snow Ganoderma and run away. You even said that you would sell it for money. I was so angry.”

At this point, Qin Xiaoxi looked at Jiang Yun angrily.

“Listen carefully.” Jiang Yun looked at Qin Xiaoxi in disbelief.

“What’s wrong? I’ll remember all your outrageous words. You won’t be able to go back on your word then,” Qin Xiaoxi said righteously.

“Forget it. You only remember the bad things and not the good ones.” Jiang Yun shook his head and continued to look around. “This snow monster has climbed pretty far. I think this cave won’t be far from the top of the Holy Saint Snow Mountain. This is good too, it will be much faster than we expected. If we relied on our walking speed, we’ll have to walk for at least another day.”

“That’s true. Although we’ve encountered the giant monster and the avalanche, the giant monster has helped us a lot.”

Qin Xiaoxi also nodded quickly.

“Let’s continue to set off. I don’t know what kind of dangers are in this cave. It’s best to be careful.” Jiang Yun looked around vigilantly. Now that the avalanche roar has stopped, he was not used to it.

The two of them tidied up and walked towards the depths of the cave.

Drip… drip… the sound of water dripping from the stalactites could be heard.

Of course, most of the stalactites were covered in a layer of frost.

“This cave is extremely humid. It’s also in the Holy Saint Snow Mountain. Many places are covered in ice. Be careful not to slip,” Jiang Yun quickly warned.

“I know, I know. You’re so long-winded.” Qin Xiaoxi naturally followed closely behind Jiang Yun.

The terrain of this cave was getting higher and higher, which was a good thing. If they were lucky, they could even walk directly to the top of the mountain without having to worry about encountering snow monsters and avalanches.

However, as they continued to go deeper, the cave became darker and darker. Gradually, the two of them could only see the path illuminated by the guiding lights.

Crack…

Suddenly, Jiang Yun’s feet seemed to have stepped on something, making a crisp sound.

This immediately attracted the attention of the two of them.

Qin Xiaoxi also hurriedly looked at Jiang Yun’s feet, only to see that a bone had been crushed by Jiang Yun.

“Why is there a bone here?” Qin Xiaoxi squatted down and hurriedly checked. Jiang Yun quickly looked around and saw a corpse quietly leaning against the wall not far away.

“A human corpse?”

Seeing this, the two of them curiously walked forward.

In a place like the Northern Region, seeing a human corpse was unexpected.

“It should be a merchant or cultivator who came here to search for treasures.” Qin Xiaoxi came to Jiang Yun’s side and was also observing the corpse.

“How did he die here?” Jiang Yun was also a bit puzzled.

“Could it be that there are some fierce and wild monsters in this cave?” Qin Xiaoxi looked around vigilantly after she said that.

“It’s hard to say, but I see that the corpse is intact. It shouldn’t have been attacked by some wild beast. It could have frozen or starved to death?”

“If that’s the case, where did his clothes go?” Qin Xiaoxi asked curiously.

This question stumped Jiang Yun.

If it was indeed frozen to death, then there should at least be a coat on the corpse, right?
