Doupo: Life Simulator System

Chapter 122: The Cliff

Looking at Xiao Yi Xian's face that had turned strange, Xiao Ming made a mental reminder not to let Zi Yan do the intimidation job again.

Still unfazed, he stroked Zi Yan's little head as he rose from the chair and made his way to the round table in the center of the room before slowly saying.

"Zi Yan is right, no matter how much you scream, no one will come to save you. The guards around you have already been knocked out by me."

Xiao Ming raised his index finger, and a wisp of red flames danced and leapt around his fingertips.

With the appearance of the flame, the temperature of the entire room began to rise.

Seeing this scene, Xiao Yi Xian's pupils suddenly contracted, realizing that what the other party said was true.

Condensing flames out of nothing was a means that only a Dou Spirit and Alchemists could possess.

Although she didn't know which of the two the teenager in front of her belonged to, either of them had the strength to finish off her escort.

Xiao Yi Xian could not understand why such a strong man would come looking for her, it was hard to believe that it was to rob her.

Thinking about this, Xiao Yi Xian's face turned pale as she further covered her body with the sheets.

Looking at Xiao Yi Xian, who was thinking of strange things, Xiao Ming inwardly had dark lines, but outwardly smiled slightly and said, "Don't think of strange things, I'm not looking for you for any other reason, I only heard that you often stay in the Magic Beast Mountain Range to look for medicinal herbs. Let me ask you, have you found a cave hidden in a cliff?"

Xiao Yi Xian patted her chest in relief under the sheet knowing that Xiao Ming just wanted to ask her something and not looking to do unspeakable things, a small blush couldn't help but appear on her cheeks as she thought, 'I have to stop thinking about such things'.

Then, thinking about the question Xiao Ming had asked, she pretended to remain deep in thought and then said with an expressionless face, "No."

"Really no?" Xiao Ming laughed lightly.

Xiao Yi Xian's acting was so awkward that it was cute in Xiao Ming's eyes, he had seen many acting masters when he was eight years old during his training at the Black-Corner Region, compared to those acting masters, Xiao Yi Xian was still too young.

In an instant, Xiao Ming disappeared from the center of the house and appeared on Xiao Yi Xian's bed.

Xiao Yi Xian was startled and said nervously "You... what do you want to do!?"

"Don't lie, your acting skills are too poor, and your heart beats significantly faster when you are lying, you can't hide it from me. As long as you take me to the cave you found, I can pay you satisfactorily, aren't you a doctor? I can give you a medical book with thousands of remedies written in it. And, if there are things in the cave that I need, I will take only one thing and the rest will be yours."

Saying this, Xiao Ming took out a book from inside his storage ring and offered it to Xiao Yi Xian.

"Take a look."

Xiao Yi Xian reached out his hand in disbelief and took the book to look at it.

The more she looked at it, the more excited she became, it really was a medicine book.

It contained many remedies she had never heard of.

"What do you think, can you take me to the cave you found?"

Xiao Yi Xian hesitated for a moment, but in the end said, "It's... fine."

There were several reasons why Xiao Yi Xian agreed to the conditions, although she didn't know if what the other party said was true, just with this book alone she could help more people, and the other party was much stronger, so Xiao Yi Xian didn't want to make him angry, all this made her decide to compromise.

"That's right." Xiao Ming smiled and said. "Take your things, bring everything with you."

"Ah, why?"

'Because you won't be able to come back later' Xiao Ming said inwardly.

Although at first he was only looking for Xiao Yi Xian to know the cave's information and offer her some treasures in return.

However, after meeting her, he didn't want to let her stay in this place.

Xiao Yi Xian's Woeful Poison Body would definitely wake up unless she was away from the poison, which was not possible.

Medicine and poison were inseparable, and Xiao Yi Xian, as a doctor, cannot stay away from poison forever, and when she awakens her Poison Body, she would not have a good time at all.

At least Xiao Ming was not so cruel to let her go through all that pain on her own, so he wanted to help her cultivate her physique.

The fact that Xiao Ming was willing to help her cultivate the Woeful Poison Body, even if the cost of doing so was very high, was due to two reasons.

The first was because he really appreciated talents and felt it was a waste to leave someone like her to her fate; and the second reason, was because Xiao Yi Xian, as an orphan, reminded him a lot of himself.

However, because of the clan, he was still able to enjoy a peaceful childhood, and could even go from time to time to bathe in the hot springs, she, on the other hand, was not so lucky, and from an early age had to learn to fend for herself.

In addition, Xiao Ming was very fond of Xiao Yi Xian's kind and caring personality, although it was not known whether Xiao Ming himself was aware of it...

Of course, all this could not be told to Xiao Yi Xian right now, so Xiao Ming coughed and said, "I'm afraid that after you leave, this place will be attacked by thieves since the guards outside have already been eliminated by us, sooner or later someone will find out, and when that happens, this room of yours ..."

Xiao Ming said a valid point, and Xiao Yi Xian understood what he meant.

Then she rolled her eyes, 'Wasn't it caused by you?'

When Xiao Yi Xian had finished packing her things, the three of them walked out of Xiao Yi Xian's room and arrived at the courtyard.

"In which direction is that cave?"

Xiao Yi Xian, who was carrying a small package, looked at Xiao Ming with some doubt but kept pointing into the distance, and then a scene appeared before her that shocked her deeply.

She only saw that a pair of beautiful wings had appeared behind the two people in front of her.

"Dou...Dou King!"

Without waiting for Xiao Yi Xian to finish startling, Xiao Ming arrived at her side, grabbed her arm and, with a flap of his wings, rushed into the sky. "Zi Yan, follow us!"

...

In the air, the shock in Xiao Yi Xian's eyes did not disappear for a long time.

After a while of flying, she realized that Xiao Ming had stopped.

"Quickly identify which direction we should take."

"Oh, right." After Xiao Ming revealed his wings, Xiao Yi Xian was much more obedient.

After identifying where they were, Xiao Yi Xian pointed in a direction.

Finally, Xiao Ming and Xiao Yi Xian landed on top of a cliff, with Zi Yan following closely behind.

Xiao Yi Xian pointed towards the cliff and said in a low voice, "There is something I found by accident once I came to collect medicinal herbs, by the cliff, there is a hidden cave that is hard to find."

"What's inside the cave must have been left by a certain predecessor, but I haven't been inside, so I'm not too sure about the inside, but judging from some traces, the predecessor who left the cave must be very strong. I'm not sure if it's the cave you're looking for."

Xiao Ming's soul power probed in the direction Xiao Yi Xian pointed, and indeed found the entrance of a cave, which couldn't help but make him nod in satisfaction.

"There is indeed a cave down there, let's go down together."

With that, Xiao Ming grabbed Xiao Yi Xian's arm and flew down the cliff towards the cave.

After beating a snake that inhabited the area to a pulp and blowing away the dense rubble and strange wood at the entrance of the cave, the three of them smoothly entered an incomparably dark and gloomy passage.

They pulled the moonshine stone out of the storage ring and illuminated the cave.

The cave entrance was not wide enough for only two or three people to pass through, Xiao Ming and the others were already tightly packed at the cave entrance.

The inside of the cave was dark, but there was a faint light emanating from it, giving it a mysterious appearance.

Around the cave entrance, there were quite a few knife carvings, but perhaps due to the long time, these carvings had become extremely dim.

"Let's go inside."

Without poking around too much, Xiao Ming took Zi Yan's small hand and headed inside.

As Xiao Yi Xian watched Xiao Ming take Zi Yan's little hand and forget about her as if he was going to leave her to her fate, she gritted her teeth angrily.

When Xiao Ming left, the light at the cave entrance gradually grew dimmer. After a moment's hesitation, Xiao Yi Xian stomped angrily and followed them.

Walking through the silent and dark cave, a faint chill surrounded them, and in the silent passage, only the faint sound of the three people's footsteps could be heard.

The dark and gloomy atmosphere around them, and the eerie wind sounds coming from time to time, made Xiao Yi Xian involuntarily hug herself, as she looked at Xiao Ming and Zi Yan walking hand in hand in front of her, she slightly hesitated, and then walked with faster steps, following closely behind them.

Although Xiao Ming had brought her here with a bit of coercion, his strength was real, and in this creepy situation, the two people in front of her were the only ones who could make her feel a bit safer.

Xiao Ming, who had been perceiving Xiao Yi Xian's actions, had a faint smile on the corner of his lips, on the way to the cave he had realized that it was very funny to tease her and see her reactions, as she was very bad at hiding her mood.

After walking in this quiet environment for more than ten minutes, just when Xiao Yi Xian could not stand the darkness that could make people go crazy, the two people in front of her suddenly stopped in their path.

"Ah..." Her body didn't have time to react and ended up colliding with Zi Yan, who was walking in the back.

"Watch where you're going!" Feeling the softness coming from the back of her head, Zi Yan got angry for some reason and said in disgust.

"... Understood" Although she was tempted to say that it was her sudden stop that caused the problem, Xiao Yi Xian felt that it was better not to mess with this upset-looking girl, after all, she had clearly seen the girl's Dou Qi wings earlier.

Seeing that Xiao Yi Xian was so sensible, Zi Yan hummed slightly and did not bother with her, instead, she turned to Xiao Ming and asked, "Xiao Ming, why are you stopping?".

"There is no more road ahead." Xiao Ming said as he turned sideways to show the stone door in front of him.

Hearing this, Xiao Yi Xian's eyebrows furrowed slightly as she took two steps forward, looked at the stone gate, and pondered.

"After the stone gate, there should be our destination. Since the predecessor placed a cave here, I think it would not create a situation where there is no way to enter. Looking at the yellow glow of the stone door, this place has evidently been set up with earthly mechanisms, as long as we are careful, it is not difficult to open it, I have read some books on mechanism techniques, let me do it."

Xiao Yi Xian said, about to step forward.

"No need to be so troublesome." Zi Yan said as she walked up to the stone door and kicked it.

Bang!

The stone door collapsed, raising a cloud of dust.

"Uh..." Xiao Yi Xian footsteps stopped on the spot, her face filled with black lines, feeling that she should not use her own reasoning with these people.

Looking at Xiao Yi Xian's actions, Xiao Ming laughed lightly and complimented her, "It's very admirable that you know about mechanisms, but with us here, you don't need to do anything, by the way, I said earlier that I would only take one thing from this cave and the rest would be all yours, my words naturally count."

After that little incident, they entered the stone room that was exposed after the stone door fell.
