After a fight, Chu Xuan and Hei Xueji finally arrived at the legendary cave when it was just dark.

What makes people feel strange is that as the sky gets late, there are fewer and fewer monkeys in the forest - but this is natural, after all, monkeys have to go home to sleep at night.

"Chu Xuan... Do you think there will be snakes or something else in this cave?

How about we camping in this open space outside the cave? Just like that, I just want to experience camping.”

Although it may be a little more comfortable to spend the night in a cave with a roof on it than in the wild, when Hei Xueji saw the dark and deep cave that was leading to, a drop of sweat appeared on her forehead and suggested to Chu Xuan with an unnaturally smile.

"If you like camping outdoors, it's open air, but before that we need to simply explore this cave."

Chu Xuan pushed down his reflective glasses expressionlessly, then took out two portable magic lamps that looked like horse lanterns, and handed one to Hei Xueji.

"Okay, thank you, Chu Xuan."

Hei Xueji just didn't want snakes or insects to crawl by her side when she was sleeping at night - after all, the cave looked quite wet, and you could feel a sense of moisture when you stood at the entrance of the cave, but she was not afraid to enter the cave, so she accepted Chu Xuan's arrangement without hesitation.

"The cave is very humid, and there may be an underground river deep in it, which is not suitable for living."

Chu Xuan walked inside with the magic lamp in front for a while, and then said without looking back in a mechanical voice that was as stable and unscaling as ever.

"Uh... Chu, Chu Xuan, can you get closer?

After you get away, your voice seems a little scary."

Hei Xueji, who was following behind, was startled by Chu Xuan's voice that became a little gloomy after reflecting through the cave wall. He said with a pale face.

"Is it scary?"

Chu Xuan, holding the lamp, turned his head, and the not-so-bright white light shone on Chu Xuan's expressionless poker face from bottom to top. Combined with Chu Xuan's reflective glasses, it looked particularly terrifying.

"Yeah, horrible."

Hei Xueji nodded with certainty. If it weren't for her clearly knowing that the man with facial paralysis and glasses in front of her was Chu Xuan, she might have jumped up now.

——It’s not about ill-thinking Chu Xuan, but at certain specific times and places, Chu Xuan’s guy who always looks expressionless and reflects his glasses gives people the feeling of being as cold as a zombie.

"Then, get closer."

Chu Xuan was not angry about Hei Xueji's truth. He stopped and continued to walk forward after Hei Xueji came to his side.

Hei Xueji, who had been paying great attention to no more than Chu Xuan, walked side by side with him for a while and then spoke again with a little red face:

"Hey~ Chu Xuan, don't you think it seems that it is getting hotter and hotter here? And it seems to have a strange smell..."

“Is there any problem?

There is a hot spring deep in this cave, so it is natural that the hotter it gets.

What you smell is the scent of sulfur.”

At this time, Chu Xuan's face was a little rosy than usual, but he had not sweated yet. The moisture in the cave has now become a little warm, which means that there is a place where hot water is burning below and is constantly emitting heat.

But he didn't hear a slight sound of water flowing. Then, it would be more likely that the hot spring lake is below rather than the hot spring river.

"Hot spring! Is it really a hot spring?

No hot springs have been found around the 'Center Town' and the surroundings of several nearby cities!"

As soon as he heard that there was a hot spring, Hei Xueji's eyes suddenly lit up. Should this be said to be worthy of being a Japanese...

"Chu Xuan, can you please speed up!"

Attracted by the hot springs, Hei Xueji urged Chu Xuan, who was still walking down slowly, in a hurry. But even though she wanted to run down to find the hot springs, she still did not walk in front of Chu Xuan. She is such a well-educated and polite lady.

"Don't let go of your guard. Although we haven't heard of any monsters or waves in this cave that can find some kind of material that is very suitable for weapons. But if there is no danger here at all, it should have become a mine that has been built by the 'lander'."

Perhaps because he was not a Japanese, Chu Xuan was not excited because of a mere hot spring, and still restrained Hei Xueji very calmly.

However, until the two finally saw the hot spring lake at the end of the cave, they encountered no monsters or waves.

"Wow~ It's so big! I can't see the edge!"

After arriving at the steaming hot spring lake, Hei Xueji opened her eyes wide and couldn't help but exclaim.

Because there is no light source to shine in the cave, and water vapor is constantly emitting out of the water surface, the visibility is really not high. Even with Chu Xuan's vision, he can't see dozens of meters away with a small magic lamp.

If it weren't for the extremely wide end of the cave and the roof was quite high, then it would be no different from the sauna. Staying there for a long time would only make people feel breathless.

"Ah, the water temperature is just right, and the water is very slippery and the pool is not deep. It is simply a perfect hot spring."

Hei Xueji squatted down, reached into the hot spring and tried it, then turned her head happily and said to Chu Xuan.

At this time, Chu Xuan did not pay attention to the hot spring at all, but raised the magic lantern high and looked up at the top of the cave with his head raised.

"Chu Xuan? What are you looking at?"

Hei Xueji raised her head in confusion, but all she could see was pitch black. There was no light source at the top of the cave, and it was covered by rising water vapor. The clouds and mist seemed very artistic, which made people forget that it was actually in the cave.

However, Chu Xuan obviously didn't like the water vapor. He frowned and looked for a while before putting down the lantern and said to Hei Xueji indifferently:

“While I’m almost sure there are no monsters or waves in this cave, you’re still too lax now.

I just wanted to check the top of the cave. If there is waves here, the only place that is most likely to be hidden is there.

Moreover, we did not see any ore suspected to be metal along the way, nor did we in this shallow and visible hot spring lake, so the most likely place is also the top of the cave.

The top of this cave should be lime. After the water vapor in the hot spring lake rises, the limestone will gradually dissolve, which is why the stalactite columns in the cave are formed, and the metal ores will naturally be exposed." (To be continued...)
