Chapter 171 Hard to Find Out Why (1/2)
Zhang Yunyan was very sad that she was about to die, and she was very desperate for not being able to accomplish the mission entrusted by the relatives of the Zhang Family and the Lin Family. She was also deeply saddened by the death of her animal friend Black Tiger, and the Turtle Elf and Shikong who had saved her life...
Suddenly, there was a noise in the darkness. Although it was very slight, it was noticeable in the silence.
Yunyan could tell that the sound came from the circular cave. She immediately became alert, and it seemed that the devils had found her entering the hole and come to catch her.
Just then, a black shadow came from the circular hole and charged at her.
Yunyan’s heart sank, the devil!
She drew back in fear and pulled out the Magical Dragon Sword to fight. On the verge of death, she had to put up a desperate fight. She shouldn’t wait to be captured. She had to fight, entrusting her young life to the fate even though she never believed it.
The shadow came to her and hummed.
Zhang Yunyan sighed. She sat on the ground again, all her strength was gone. She hugged the shadow that touched her.
She was very surprised and excited. She talked to herself while caressing the shadow, “So it’s you, you are still alive, great. We are all alive...”
When she spoke, Yunyan couldn’t help crying. A bittersweet smile appeared on her pretty face.
This shadow who came suddenly was Black Tiger. Unexpectedly, it came back from the cave.
Where did Black Tiger go? How far did it go in the cave? What did it see? Had it found the devil? No one could know the answer to these questions.
Maybe it returned because it sensed that its human friend had also entered the cave and came to meet with Zhang Yunyan.
Black Tiger was indeed not an ordinary animal. No one of its species could match it. With keen perception and quick reaction, it deserved to be its master’s capable hand.
The two close friends reunited unexpectedly in the Devil’s Cave, and they were very excited but also sad.
Soon, Zhang Yunyan calmed down, stroking Black Tiger’s body in the darkness. Its limbs were in good condition and it was free to move without any injury. Yunyan was really shocked and amazed.
Black Tiger fell into such a deep cave but was not hurt at all. This was also an impossible miracle.
The miracle that happened to her was unimaginable, and the miracle happened to Black Tiger was also incredible. All of these were puzzles.
In the terrible cave, Zhang Yunyan had no time to think about these insignificant puzzles. She was looking around and thinking eagerly.
In the darkness, the “full moon” hanging high up was hazy. It didn’t bring much light to the cave, and nothing could be seen clearly.
Zhang Yunyan did not give up. She couldn’t wait here to die. So, she walked along the wall of the cave and watched, hoping to find a way easy to climb up and escape from the Devil’s Cave as soon as possible.
She knew there was little hope but she still didn’t give up. Even if she couldn’t climb out, it would be good if Black Tiger could.
Black Tiger followed her quietly, watching and sniffing, without any abnormal behavior.
Zhang Yunyan walked around with no result. The hole wall was uneven, but very smooth. There was no way to climb up. It was almost impossible to climb out of the deep hole to escape.
She didn’t have the ability to climb, and Black Tiger was also unable to escape. Hope was lost, which was inevitable. She never had the chance and she knew that this would be the result. It was just her fantasy.
The high “swan” was very attractive, but unattainable. Yunyan was very discouraged and sat down on the ground with a sigh, deeply depressed. She was helpless, sad, and despaired...
Black Tiger did not know why. It didn’t seem to know what was being nervous and what was fear, and it didn’t know that it was going to die here. It sometimes moved around and sometimes stayed with Yunyan.
In this horrible and desperate situation, Yunyan felt less lonely with her animal friend beside her.
Zhang Yunyan looked at the dark cave, and felt even more terrible. Trapped in a desperate situation with nowhere to escape, she would be killed sooner or later.
She remembered Turtle Elf and Shikong. These two were so capable, but they were no match for Jiuyou Sage, let alone herself. Once she encountered those devils, the consequence was unimaginable. Not only would she die, but she would die a horrible death.
Yunyan was very scared and nervous. She was startled at the thought of the terrible consequences, and sighed for the imminent death of both of them.
Here was the “hell” full of devils. She couldn’t escape, and there was nowhere to hide. The situation was out of her control, and she could only leave life and death to the fate she didn’t believe.
In her lifetime, Zhang Yunyan went through the ups and downs. Now she had come into the trap and would not have a good result. With no hope of survival, she could only wait to die here, or wait for the devils to take her life.
This was an inevitable tragedy in the Devil’s Cave. It was the cruel arrangement of bitter fate. It was the end that could not be avoided. She was powerless to reverse the situation and unable to fight back.
