Chapter 179 Who Was he? (2/2)

Turtle Elf lived in the Devil’s Cave. It was clearer about the things here. Zhang Yunyan was unable to argue, but the mystery in her heart still remained unsolved. She hoped that she was wrong, and this person was the one caught that night. She hoped that her benefactor Shikong was still alive.

Yunyan knew that the benefactor wore Buddhism costume. This man dressed in luxurious clothes was by no means Shikong. Her wish could only be a beautiful dream. Besides, after seeing this person, she did not have the inexplicable feeling when she saw Shikong, so it would not be the same person.

Although Zhang Yunyan did not think that this man was the little monk Shikong, she was still imagining. Driven by eagerness, she had already treated this person as benefactor Shikong. She prayed that the benefactor had not been killed by the demons and devils, and put the beautiful prayers on the man.

Yunyan knew that this was a self-deception and a delusion, so she kept it a secret. This was the inevitable reaction of being grateful, the only expectation of the benefactor, and a comfort to the painful soul.

Seeing the motionless man--her benefactor “Shikong” in her heart, Zhang Yunyan felt sad and angry. She shed tears.

“Shikong” was dead. It was pathetic. He was so young, and he had powerful kung fu. His youth had just begun, but he had passed away like a withered flower. It was heartbreaking and mournful.

Shikong’s death happened in a way that was expected. As Turtle Elf said, the only ending for anyone who entered the Devil’s Cave was death, and there was no way to escape.

Zhang Yunyan would also be like this. She could not escape the end of death. Sooner or later she would die like Shikong.

At this moment, the words of the Red Hair King Ghost were not wrong. Those guys were strong and were the masters here. Zhang Yunyan was the weak. The law of jungle could not be changed, and they were unable to fight the rules, especially in the cave where the demons and devils were rampant.

Seeing the dead “Shikong”, Yunyan felt heartbroken. She kept shedding tears and weeping. She was crying for her benefactor Shikong, and also felt sad for the unfortunate man in front of her. In grief, she also had some comfort. In any case, the man in front of her, also the “Shikong” in her mind, was not as miserable as she imagined.

It seemed that he was not very painful when he died. His body retained complete with no blood on it. His clothes were neat and tidy. Perhaps he did not die in pain, and this was some relief in all the misfortune.

Yunyan looked at “Shikong” who seemed asleep, and she felt somewhat relieved.

However, this comfort still couldn’t eliminate the doubts in her heart. This man was not only dressed in luxurious clothes, but also had long black hair. This was not a Buddhist costume. Was he the little monk “Shikong” or not?

Her doubts were superfluous. She knew that this was a vulgar man, not a monk. How could he be “Shikong”?

If thinking about it carefully, it was not surprising at all. It was also the inevitable reaction of Yunyan’s inner thoughts. It was her desire which was expressed naturally.

She had been thinking about her benefactor Shikong, and had been guilty for the death of her benefactor. At this time, she accidentally saw the man in front of her, and she would inevitably associate him with the benefactor. There was a glimmer of hope and a desire in her heart. She really hoped that this person was her benefactor Shikong.

Looking at the motionless young man, Zhang Yunyan shook her head gently and sighed silently.

She said to herself in her mind, “Jiuyou Sage is fond of killing, and he will not let go of any prey in his hand. Shikong dared to fight, so the Sage would not let him die quietly. But why did not the old devil eat this man? He’s not Shikong? Then who is he?”

Turtle Elf didn’t have so many thoughts and doubts, and it believed that the man was the only one caught that night. It persuaded Zhang Yunyan to stop thinking about it anymore. It was important to escape quickly, otherwise it would be too late.

In doubt, Yunyan understood that although the man was dead, the Sage would not let him go. Maybe he rushed away for something that night, and he didn’t have time to eat the man, so he was temporarily stored here. The old devil will swallow his flesh and blood sooner or later, probably tonight.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yunyan felt sad and her tears ran down again. Although “Shikong” in her mind was dead, he still couldn’t escape from the claws, and he would horribly suffer in her imagination. She was very angry and very painful. She wanted to take away the dead “benefactor” and keep the intact body of “Shikong”.

Yunyan shook her head silently. Her life was on a line. She would die in the hands of these devils sooner or later, and she would have the same consequence as her benefactor. She couldn’t even escape herself, and she wanted to protect “Shikong” from the devils. It was like asking for a moon.

Outside the cave, evil wind was whistling, and there was some ongoing shouting. The poor nerves of the two were being annoyed by those sounds.

Turtle Elf was panicked and urged Zhang Yunyan to go quickly. If they were stopped by the devils, everything would be over.

Yunyan felt painful inside. She cried and tried to tidy up the clothes for “Shikong”, which was the last she could do for her benefactor. Besides this, she had nothing to do.

Suddenly, Zhang Yunyan screamed. She shocked himself, and shocked Turtle Elf.

It turned out that Yunyan was shocked when tidying up his clothes, and she was struck dumb.

She immediately grasped the man’s wrist and then exclaimed, “He is not dead. He is still alive! He is still alive!”

Turtle Elf was very surprised, and rushed to check it out. The pulse of the person was beating slowly and his breathing was very weak, so he was still alive. It felt very surprised, very excited and more stressed.

Zhang Yunyan was very happy but puzzled, “Turtle Elf, why doesn’t he wake up? Is he sick?”

Turtle Elf shook his head, “He is not sick. It seems that he has been magically applied by the Sage, and his body and mind have been closed. Well, although he can still breathe, it’s almost the same as death for he has no awareness.”

Hearing this, Zhang Yunyan anxiously asked, “Turtle Elf, can you dispel the magic to let him...”

Turtle Elf was so scared that he shook his body and exclaimed, “Oh no, the trap was triggered. Let’s go!”
