Chapter 1017: Entering the cave (1)
The young men already knew this in their hearts, so after the motor stopped and uncle Xiang gave the order, they all picked up the wood pulp that was used to prop the boat.
The wood pulp made a ‘plop’ sound as it fell into the water, causing a series of splashes, and the chill rushed up.
They were getting closer and closer to the nine Dragon cave, so the yin Qi here was naturally heavier than the water of the Black River.
Because of song qingxiao’s ‘special’ identity, she was a guest who had spent a lot of money to explore the nine Dragon cave and pursue the legend. Naturally, she didn’t need to do anything. She just watched the few people paddling the water and pushing the boat forward.
The boat wasn’t big, but it was still quite heavy because it was full of goods.
In addition, the water in the nine Dragon cave gushed out from the top to the bottom, which made it even more difficult for the boat to sail against the current. Even the three young men in their Prime were struggling to sail the boat.
The speed of the ship was not fast, and it gradually drove into the shadows, approaching the entrance of the nine Dragon cave.
The closer they got to the entrance, the stronger the cold wind became. The howling of the wind came out of the cave like a strange horn.
The wind was extremely cold. The three young men shivered and felt cold from head to toe when they were blown by the wind.
Song qingxiao’s cultivation level was extraordinary, and her physical body was abnormally strong. The yin Qi could not break through her physical defense at all, so her expression did not change.
But other than her, there was another person on the ship who also seemed to be unaffected by the yin Qi-uncle Xiang.
She stared at uncle Xiang’s back. He stood at the bow of the boat and paddled hard, making a splashing sound between the water.
The one-eyed old man might have felt song qingxiao’s gaze, but he didn’t turn around even though he knew song qingxiao was staring at him. Perhaps it was because she had managed to get some information out of him after their conversation. He was afraid that she would continue to get information out of him that he should not have.
Not only did uncle Xiang not shrink back, but he also seemed to be stronger than before as the yin Qi blew over.
When song Qing was young, he remembered what he had said before. He had been seriously injured in the nine Dragon cave and had been saved by luck.
After experiencing such a life-and-death situation, even if one lost their memory, they would still have a lingering fear of the place where they almost lost their lives, and they would not dare to step into it again.
However, uncle Xiang did the exact opposite. Not only did he return to the nine Dragon cave after he recovered, but from his words, he would also load a ship full of goods at a fixed time every month to the yulun void realm in the nine Dragon cave.
According to uncle Xiang, he had accidentally discovered the clansmen who lived in seclusion in the yulun void realm and made a deal with them. Both parties took what they needed and traveled once a month. This had been going on for decades.
He had lived in the mortal world. Over the years, according to the young man, he had earned a handsome salary by picking up treasures and leading the way for curious tourists.
Logically speaking, he should be considered extremely wealthy among the locals.
However, from his dressing, he was dressed in ordinary clothes, just like these young men. He looked thin and did not seem like he often ate fish and meat.
Then where did the money he earned go?
Song qingxiao’s gaze shifted to the middle of the cabin, where a small mountain of frozen meat was piled up. They were all cleaned animals.
Most likely, the money that uncle Xiang earned would be used to purchase these materials and send them to the yulun void realm every month.
However, he also said that the people of the Yu Lun void realm lived in seclusion. Since they entered the Yu Lun void realm to avoid the war, they no longer went out and interacted with people from the outside world. They only relied on him to travel between the nine Dragon cave and the outside world.
In that case, the money circulating in the real world was equivalent to waste paper for the people in the Yu Lun void realm.
In this way, what kind of benefits could uncle Xiang get from them after he bought the supplies out of his own pocket and gave them to them? what benefits could he get from them that would make him happy for decades?
Since there were people living in the Yu Lun illusionary realm, and uncle Xiang denied that there was something strange about it, then where did the two groups of people who went into the nine Dragon cave and disappeared go?
The more song qingxiao thought about it, the more she found it interesting. At this time, the bow of the ship had already entered the entrance of the nine Dragon cave.
‘Hu-‘
A gust of cold wind whirled out from inside, and the light in the surroundings became much darker than before.
The young men who were rowing the boat all gasped. The young man sitting next to song qingxiao shivered.
