Chapter 207 Volume 3 Chapter 17 What kind of luck is this?

Logically speaking, the closer you are to magma, the higher the temperature. There should be no vegetation, but when Shao Qing swept her eyes downwards she realized the lower she looked, the more plants there were.

At first, it was just a layer of moss. Lower, it became taller weeds, and then even lower, you could see sporadic flowers. How amazing.

Is it because of the apocalypse that plants have mutated and become more adaptable? Do they now enjoy a high temperature environment?

Shao Qing didn’t know, but one thing she was sure of is that they had to go down. Yes, they had to go down. If there are no other plants found outside, this was their last hope.

Since there were more plants as they went down, maybe what they are looking for is near the magma.

But it was very dangerous.

Below was the magma. The temperature of the magma was enough to melt people in an instant. That is to say, if they accidentally fell into the magma, there was no way they would survive.

So … who would go down?

Yan Qiyue stood up silently, hugged Shao Qing gently, and then said: “I’ll go down. We don’t know what kind of plants can cure Er Dai right now. I am the most proficient in this aspect. I will go down and look.”

” No! “Shao Qing refused immediately. She frowned:” It’s too dangerous! “

“Ah Qing.” Yan Qiyue grabbed Shao Qing’s shoulder and kissed her: “Did you want to say, it’s too dangerous, so you should go down instead? It’s like this every time. You always leave all of us behind and face danger by yourself, have you ever thought about us?”

“I am a man, and every time I have to watch my woman take risks. Can I still be considered a man? Ah Qing, don’t put everything on your shoulders. We are together now, you can try to trust me more and share some burdens with me.” Yan Qiyue has always listened to Shao Qing the most, but this time, he did not want Shao Qing to take another risk. She had taken enough risks. This time he will take the responsibility.

Shao Qing hesitated for a second and then said, “Let’s go together.”

She would not be at ease to allow Yan Qiyue to go down by himself and Yan Qiyue refused to let her go down alone, so they should compromise. They should both go down together.

This result was already very good for Yan Qiyue and then they began to discuss how to proceed. The best way was naturally Shao Qing’s vines.

Shao Qing looked around and found nothing suitable for a pillar. She could only tie the vine’s to Guang Guang and have Er Dai and Itoji Muzi guard it.

The other end was tied to her and Yan Qiyue’s waist. The two went down, one after the other. Shao Qing was at the bottom. This was Shao Qing’s request. She made it very clear that if he wanted to be on the bottom, then she would go alone. Yan Qiyue had no choice but to listen to her.

Shao Qing stretched out her sharp nails, grabbed the wall, and slowly crawled down. The space below was very wide. A pink lantern flower was inserted on her waist. With the radiance from the lantern flower, she could see the dense moss on the walls.

Yan Qiyue had no nails to use, so he used a dagger to pierce the wall to fixate his body. The two of them slowly climbed down. They didn’t know how long they had travelled. They were still far from the magma, but they could already feel the hot temperature.

At this time, there were already many kinds of plants growing on the walls on both sides. Yan Qiyue directed Shao Qing to pick a lot and put them into her space to distinguish them one by one after leaving.

Shao Qing can’t feel tired, but Yan Qiyue would get tired. They had been climbing for so long, Yan Qiyue must already feel exhausted. Shao Qing stopped, holding Yan Qiyue, she allowed him a short rest. After the brief stop, the two continued down.

Time slowly ticked by. When the surface of the Magma Lake could be seen, Yan Qiyue exclaimed, “Look!”

Shao Qing lowered her head and immediately saw a flower growing on the edge of the Magma Lake. The flower was very beautiful with the red petals overlapping one another. The color of the petals went from light to dark, just like a blooming flame.

It was so beautiful, especially when it was reflected by the dark red magma. Shao Qing can even imagine that when the volcano erupts, the color of the magma will become bright. When it bursts out in a flash, the whole flower that would become submerged in magma would look even more gorgeous.

But what they have to do now is remove this flower.

This flower was very close to the magma, it should be the plant that Shao Qing was looking for.

The two immediately climbed down faster. The closer they went to the magma, the more careful they became. Occasionally, one or two stones would be pushed into the magma and would be swallowed by the magma instantly.

Finally, Shao Qing reached the place closest to the Magma Lake. Shao Qing could not feel the hot temperature. At most, she felt her skin was drier than usual, but Yan Qiyue was already sweating.

Shao Qing’s nails were stuck in the wall and the other hand was stretched out to reach for the flower. The root of the flower was in the magma and it looked like the whole flower was floating on the magma.

It had a stem that was above the magma lake. Shao Qing could pull out the whole flower by pinching the stem.

As soon as she pinched the flower stem, she saw a bubble appear on the surface of the magma lake, then a red snake drilled out of the magma.

Shao Qing was unprepared. Although she has always been vigilant, she never thought that there would be living creatures in such high-temperature magma.

So when the snake came out, she was taken aback. Her hand shook and the whole flower was pulled out by her.

She hurriedly stuffed the flowers into the space, then she threw herself to the wall. The snake that drilled out was long and thick. Stirring the magma, the scattered magma splashed on the walls.

As soon as it saw that the flower was gone, the snake became irritable and rushed directly towards Shao Qing. Shao Qing in that spot with Yan Qiyue above her, could not move or avoid the attack. The only thing she could do was pull out her sword and take the attack.

The snake slammed into the sword. The force of the snake made her numb and the sword fell down, swallowed by the magma.

Shao Qing didn’t have time to mourn her sword she had used for such a long time. Her whole body was in crisis mode. This was because she saw that the magma had become irritable and was spreading upwards continuously. Heavens, is it going to erupt?

If the volcano erupts at this time, she and Yan Qiyue would be stuck here 100%. Furthermore, the power of nature was unstoppable. Just like the previous submarine volcano eruption that had left them stranded out at sea.

Shao Qing’s heart was flooded with the word ‘F*ck’. She carried Yan Qiyue in one hand, then like a dexterous monkey, she crawled up the wall with a whizz with an enraged fire snake below her. It hissed and tried to attack Shao Qing.

However, it seems that it couldn’t leave the magma. After most of its body was outside the magma, it couldn’t drill out any further. It could only hiss and then it was slowly swallowed up by the magma.

If someone could drill into the magma at this moment, they would find that the tail of this snake was in a stone. During the apocalypse, there was a small volcanic eruption. The kind that did not even spew out of the ground. It had accidentally fallen in at that time.

Fortunately, after the apocalypse, the animals began to mutate. They actually didn’t die in the magma and half of their bodies grew together with the solidified magma.

When Shao Qing was carrying Yan Qiyue and crawled up, Er Dai who was outside was also tested. He had been squatting on the ground to count the boring stones when suddenly there was shaking under his feet. Then there were countless snakes, insects, rats, and ants suddenly running out of their dens trying to escape. They quickly ran down the mountain.

The same was true of the beasts.

Er Dai was dumbfounded, but Itoji Muzi reacted: “Not good! The volcano is about to erupt!”

She spoke the language of the island country, so Er Dai didn’t understand it at all. Even if he understood, he would never leave Shao Qing anyways.

At this time, a mutant tiger jumped out from the side. It seemed that the volcano erupted and it was preparing to escape. As a result, it ran into them.

The tender girl, Itoji Muzi, was a great temptation for the mutant beast, a temptation to take a bite.

Itoji Muzi was left behind by Shao Qing. Er Dai naturally would not let Itoji Muzi be eaten, so he stopped the tiger, and then threw Itoji Muzi under Guang Guang.

With Guang Guang to protect Itoji Muzi, she was relatively safe. Er Dai was currently injured. Usually, beating a mutant tiger that was at rank three or four would never have been a problem. However, with his current status, he would not be able to match it.

Er Dai was not stupid. Since he couldn’t fight it, he rushed towards Guang Guang. This tiger would be afraid to enter the range of Guang Guang.

With Guang Guang’s support, this tiger would be a cinch.

Then the accident happened. The tiger leaped forward and tore away the vines. Er Dai’s complexion changed instantly. He couldn’t care less about the tiger. He quickly pounced forward and grabbed the broken vines.

The tiger did not eat zombies. It was only interested in Itoji Muzi. Now with no way to eat Itoji Muzi and sensing the volcano was about to erupt, he ran away.

As for Shao Qing and Yan Qiyue, Shao Qing had given up crawling up step-by-step because it was too slow. Borrowing the wall, she took advantage of it to run up. Yet, while she was running, the vine suddenly loosened.

Shao Qing was caught off guard and almost fell into the magma. She stopped just when she was about to come in contact with the magma. She was so close that a splash of the magma had fallen on her.

Shao Qing immediately knew that something must have happened outside. She grabbed the wall and couldn’t help having some headaches. Her previous efforts were in vain. Now, she had to climb up again.

Shao Qing didn’t know at all that Er Dai was currently at the entrance of the cave. He was clutching the vine and his clothes were worn by the friction from the ground. He held on tight and using his foot he hooked onto a stone outside the entrance of the cave. Then he slowly climbed back, making sure he had a good grasp of the vines while climbing.

Fortunately, Shao Qing was already attached to the wall at this moment and would not burden Er Dai anymore. Grasping the vines, he slowly backed up. Feeling the pull on the waist, she followed it upward.

With one pulling, one climbing, and the magma ‘chasing’, it was terribly dangerous.

Er Dai grabbed the vines and returned back to Guang Guang and re-tied the vine back to the trunk. Then he continued to pull the vines to help Shao Qing. Itoji Muzi also hurried over to help.

With their help, Shao Qing climbed up a lot faster. Finally she climbed out of the hole before the magma spewed out.

As soon as she came out, she saw the gray-faced Er Dai. Shao Qing didn’t have time to feel distressed and she retrieved Guang Guang. Carrying Er Dai on her back, holding Yan Qiyue, and grabbing Itoji Muzi, everyone hung on her body as she quickly ran down the mountain.

Her speed was too fast. She quickly surpassed those beasts who were escaping in an instant. She was basically like the wind. By the time she ran to the foot of the mountain, a big boom rang out and Shao Qing turned back to see a mushroom cloud of volcanic ash.

Mount Fuji really erupted.

Shao Qing didn’t have any thoughts to look at it twice and began to escape with her group. They must escape beyond a certain range to be considered safe.

If they stayed within the range, they could be affected at any time.

Shao Qing hasn’t escaped so desperately for her life in many years. She was like an electric motor, running speedily even with three people on her. When she finally ran to a safe distance, she could hardly feel her tired body and fell to the ground.

The four people looked at Mt. Fuji in the distance with terrified hearts. The eruption of Mt. Fuji will affect the animals and plants around it.

For a long time to come, they wouldn’t be able to come to Mount Fuji to see the cherry blossoms.

In any case, at least they have escaped. Shao Qing breathed a sigh of relief and then said: “Let’s go further, I’m still feeling a little uneasy.”

After a little rest, the four of them went a long way before they settled down.

During the rest, Shao Qing sat and looked at Mount Fuji in the distance, while Yan Qiyue was in the tent, studying the plants that Shao Qing had brought back.

Er Dai was the most pitiful. In Shao Qing’s arms, he originally wanted to show off the wounds on his chest grievously to maybe receive some loving touches, yet beyond his torn clothes, there were no injuries.

The pretending plan failed before it even started…

But even so, Shao Qing was still very distressed. She pulled off Er Dai’s clothes and checked the wound on his back for him. Only when she found that it didn’t get worse did she help him change clothes.

“It’s okay, when Qiyue researches the medicine, your injury will be fine.” Shao Qing touched Er Dai’s head to comfort him. Er Dai honestly held Shao Qing’s waist and put his face on her lower abdomen.

This was a position he particularly liked. Shao Qing could only hug him and let him rest for a while to recover.

The most pitiful was Yan Qiyue. He had just escaped and before he had time to rest, he started to research which plant would be most effective in helping Er Dai.

When he came out for dinner, Yan Qiyue looked blank, all his thoughts were on those plants.

When it was time to sleep, he was still studying, as if he couldn’t stop until he found the results. In the end, he was dragged to bed by Shao Qing.

The plants were already in hand. They can now be used for research at any time, so he shouldn’t wreck his not-so-good body doing research.

When being dragged to bed, Yan Qiyue struggled a bit: “Let me study for a while. I already have a little clue.”

“Heaven is important, earth is important, and sleep is the most important.” Shao Qing grabbed Yan Qiyue’s neck and hooked him into the bed: “Er Dai is now in a stable state. Don’t rush to finish it all in one day. It would do us more harm than good if you collapsed. We can study more tomorrow.”

Yan Qiyue, who was stunned by Shao Qing, plunged into Shao Qing’s arms. He felt that a nosebleed was coming out, a lustful thought floating by.

Shao Qing pinched Yan Qiyue’s chin and then said: “Don’t struggle my little beauty, you should just follow me. As long as you serve this lord well, whatever you want to eat, you will be able to get it.”

Yan Qiyue laid there like a fish hiding a secret grudge: “You’re just all talk, it won’t come true.”

Shao Qing could only come over and kiss his lips and chin to appease him: “I have taken care of your body for so long, do you want my efforts to go in vain?”

Yan Qiyue, who was still very angry, suddenly stopped his temper. This was because he knew that Shao Qing was indeed doing this for his own good. He drilled into Shao Qing’s arms, grieving and then was pushed out by Er Dai.

Both men were very pitiful, one sick and one wounded with their wife in front of them but unable to eat.

Especially Er Dai. Even if he was not a wounded person, he couldn’t eat. Unless he was breaking through with the period of heating of the blood, that was the only time he could eat.

It’s pathetic.

This feeling of waiting for a thousand years for that one taste was much harder than Yan Qiyue’s situation. At least when his body was better, he could eat as much as he wanted.

For Er Dai, he could only train for a boundless amount of time, but everything is moving towards a good direction. This was because Shao Qing found that with the upgrade, Er Dai’s body was slowly changing.

His skin was getting softer and softer. He felt more and more like a living person. There was even a small amount of blood in his body, much more than before. It even flows.

If he continues to develop like this, when he reaches the eighth or ninth rank, he will be no different from ordinary people. At that time, Er Dai should not have difficulties and should have his memory restored.

Therefore, Shao Qing hoped that she would be able to get the chance to see Er Dai revert back to a normal person soon. At the same time she was worried that he would choose to leave after his memory was restored. This was a dilemma.

Sometimes she really wanted to be selfish, to let Er Dai stay as he is now, to love her, rely on her, and only have her in his heart.

Whenever she thought this way, Shao Qing would spurn herself. She had no qualifications to deprive Er Dai of returning to normal.

She was scared, very scared. But even if she was afraid, she would have to wait for Er Dai to recover and make a decision as a normal person.

When the time comes, no matter how he chooses, Shao Qing will not blame him. The worst case would be to forget each other and go their separate ways.
