From Zero to Hero in the Doomsday - Chapter 1052
Chapter 1052 The Might of the Devil’s Cave
“Boom ~”
A huge bolt of lightning suddenly struck through the air. Rolling dark clouds immediately covered the sky. Bean-sized raindrops fell down like pouring rain. However, Chen Guangda and the others did not have the slightest intention of blocking it. Rain in the desert itself was extremely rare, let alone such a heavy rainstorm.
“Haha ~ This is too good …”
Chen Guangda directly took off his clothes and opened his mouth. He greedily used his mouth to receive the rain while rubbing his body back and forth like he was rubbing a bath. Even Lin Na and the other women couldn’t wait to pull off their clothes and began to wash their bodies in the rain.
They hadn’t taken a bath since they left the prairie. The three girls didn’t even have a place to wash their butts. Not only did a group of men stink like beggars, even their women stink. Their hair was even glued together. Streams of mud immediately flowed out of their bodies when they were drenched in the rain.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Several huge bolts of lightning suddenly struck down one after another. One of them was even thicker than the other. One of them was even strangely pale cyan. It was as if someone was about to undergo a tribulation to become an immortal. Chen Guangda was so scared that he quickly shrank his head and hugged the horse’s neck, afraid that the heavens would blow him to pieces.
“Look! Black Cloud …”
Wang Ran suddenly pointed to the east and shouted. Chen Guangda, who was washing his hair, was immediately stunned. Behind a huge sand dune in the east, a large amount of black smoke actually rose up. It soared into the sky like a Hei Long. Soon, it merged with the black clouds in the sky and kept surging in the dark clouds.
“It can’t be such a coincidence …”
Chen Guangda wiped the rain off his face heavily and looked at the place where the black smoke was rising. However, Wang Ran stammered, “Dragon Cloud Ascension, the appearance of the Devil’s Cave. This … This must be the appearance of the Black Cloud Devil’s Cave. There’s no mistake!”
“What a bright golden light! It must be emitted from a treasure …”
Ba Tu opened his mouth wide in horror. He had naturally heard all sorts of legends about the Black Cloud Demon Cave. The only thing he saw was a dazzling golden light shining from where the black clouds rose. It was like the light emitted from countless gold and silver treasures, causing people to have an unprovoked impulse to go over and earn a large sum of money.
“Let’s go! Let’s go take a look …”
Chen Guangda hurriedly put on his clothes and waved his horse whip. Ba Tu and the others seemed to be interested, but Wang Ran anxiously said, “We can’t go! The Black Cloud Demon Cave is a harmful place. Even if we have the Golden Mountain and Silver Mountain inside, we won’t be able to take it. Let’s hurry up and go to Desert City!”
“Who said they wanted to take the treasure? It doesn’t matter if we look at it from afar …”
Chen Guangda spat his horse’s butt without any hesitation and immediately rushed towards the place where the black smoke rose. Seeing Ba Tu and the others follow behind, Wang Ran could only sigh heavily and quickly beat the horse to catch up. Not long later, she arrived behind the huge sand dune.
“All of you, listen to me. No matter what is inside, you are not allowed to touch it …”
Wang Ran jumped down from his horse and looked at Chen Guangda anxiously. Chen Guangda was naturally not interested in treasures. The Black Cloud Demon Cave itself was what attracted him. However, Wang Ran pulled Ba Tu back and said, “Ba Tu! Even if there were Heavenly Immortal Beauties inside, you can’t get close to them. Do you hear me?”
“I’m not that lecherous …”
Ba Tu looked at her guiltily. He hurriedly pulled out his saber and caught up with Chen Guangda. Only two people were left to guard the horses. The rest followed Chen Guangda and quickly climbed onto the sand dune. However, everyone quickly felt a burst of scorching heat, as if they had suddenly approached a big furnace.
“Damn it! It’s really a bit sinister …”
Chen Guangda slowed down and glanced back at the crowd. Everyone became nervous. However, Lin Na stood up and said, “Everyone, please calm down. We are here to rescue our friends and relatives, not to take the Golden Mountain and Silver Mountain. As long as we don’t have greed in our hearts, anything that goes wrong will be helpless against us!”
“En!”
Everyone nodded heavily. Only when there was no greed in their hearts would they be invulnerable. Thus, after Chen Guangda removed the distractions in their hearts, he clenched his saber and slowly climbed towards the top of the hill. However, when he stealthily peeked out, he suddenly cursed, “Holy shit!”
“Damn it! Black Cloud Devil’s Cave is on fire …”
Chen Guangda stood up unhappily. The others immediately climbed up in astonishment. Who would have thought that after they stood up, they would also curse loudly. Behind the sand dune was a small oasis. Several large trees that had been struck by lightning were emitting thick smoke. The so-called golden light was just fire.
“No matter what, we can finally have a good bath …”
Lin Na shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He was really nervous for nothing. However, there was a small clear pond in the middle of the oasis. It made people want to swim naked when they looked at it from afar. Qiqig even shouted coquettishly, “We need to go take a shower. You stinking men are not allowed to peek!”
“Wear a pair of underpants. We also want to wash them …”
Chen Guangda couldn’t wait to take off the clothes he had just put on. Qiqi Ge immediately rolled his eyes at him and pulled Lin Na down. The men also rushed down happily, but Wang Ran said suspiciously, “No! I’ve walked around here more than a hundred times, and I’ve never heard of an oasis!”
“Did you take the wrong path …”
Chen Guangda looked at her in puzzlement. However, at this moment, a group of people suddenly appeared on the sand dune opposite him. Each of them was carrying shiny blades as they stared covetously. Chen Guangda immediately rushed down with Wang Ran. The men who were splashing in the water hurriedly picked up their weapons and rushed back to the shore to be ready.
“Which slot is good …”
Chen Guangda knitted his brows and shouted. Unexpectedly, the other party did not reply at all. They all walked towards the pond with their weapons in their hands and waited for the leader to say coldly, “I don’t care where you are, but if you dare to ruin our good fortune, I will definitely let you all see it!”
“Whoever you want to look good at, come over and try if you have the guts …”
Jeddah suddenly pulled out his saber and pointed it at the other party. However, Chen Guangda gently pulled him over. He stared at the group of people across the street and said, “The road is facing the sky. Although we don’t want to cause trouble, we aren’t afraid of it. No matter what you want to do, as long as you don’t provoke us, we won’t bother about it!”
“Hmph ~ You guys are smart …”
The leader coldly snorted proudly. Then, he removed the rope from his back and greedily stared at the surface of the water. Dozens of his subordinates also stared at the surface of the lake and whispered to each other. However, Chen Guangda looked at Wang Ran in surprise. Could it be that these fellows still wanted to go into the water to catch fish?
“Regardless of them, let’s wash our …”
Jeddah stabbed the knife back into the soil without caring and jumped into the pond to wash it again. The group of people on the other side looked at him and did not stop him. They were still whispering to each other and did not know what they were planning. Chen Guangda, with some suspicion, took out a handful of water and tasted it. The water was really cool and refreshing.
“Wow! This water is really sweet …”
Qiqi Ge went into the water and took a sip. He quickly pulled Lin Na to play with the water. However, the group of people on the other side didn’t even look at them. They directly took out a rope and tied it to a tree by the pond. Then, the leader said, “Old Ma, go down and probe the bottom first. Send us a signal whenever there’s a problem!”
“Alright! Watch me …”
A middle-aged man tied the rope to his waist and spat in his hand. He rubbed it hard. Then, under the shocked gazes of Chen Guangda and the others, he slowly pulled the rope towards the center of the pond and looked down like a monkey.
“Are these people crazy? There are no fish here …”
Wang Ran furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. However, Chen Guangda’s heart stirred. He hurriedly took out the military map that Lin Na had given him and checked it. However, the man standing in the water suddenly shouted excitedly, “Boss! Come down quickly! There are all gold, silver, and jewelry below! We’re going to be rich this time!”
“Gold, silver, and jewelry?”
Chen Guangda raised his head in shock. Unexpectedly, the people opposite him were all ecstatic as they rushed into the pond. However, they had just rushed to the center of the seemingly not deep pond when a series of “putong” sounds suddenly came out. Dozens of people had actually disappeared into the water one after another, not even turning over a larger bubble.
“Don’t rob me! Leave some for me …”
The middle-aged man shouted with a naked face. Then, he cut the rope with a knife and pounced towards the center of the pond. After splashing water, he disappeared into the water almost instantly. It was as if there was a huge bottomless pit in the center of the pond that sucked them all in. Not even a single corpse could float up.
“Not good! This is the place where the Black Cloud Demon Cave appeared …”
Chen Guangda suddenly shouted as he looked at the map. The place where the Black Cloud Demon Cave had appeared for the third time was the area beneath their feet. However, when he turned around and saw it, he was instantly stunned. Ba Tu and the others were actually lying on the water and drinking crazily. Everyone’s bellies were bulging high, and they didn’t give up. They all had the posture of trying to suppress themselves to death.
“What are you doing? Get up quickly …”
Wang Ran rushed forward in horror and hurriedly pulled Ba Tu and the others out of the water. Unexpectedly, Ba Tu and the others were stunned. They could not wait to crawl back. Their mouths were full of thirst, but Chen Guangda hurriedly shouted, “Hurry up and knock them unconscious. This water is all an illusion!”
Dong ~
Chen Guangda stepped forward and knocked Lin Na and Qiqig unconscious in the water. He directly used his brute force to throw them back. Wang Ran also used his strength to smash them fiercely, knocking them unconscious and dragging them backwards. However, just as they knocked the last man unconscious, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed.
It was as if someone had suddenly removed the curtain in front of him, The lively oasis suddenly disappeared, leaving behind only the rolling sand dunes. There was no water, no trees, or even a single weed. Chen Guangda and Wang Ran immediately took a deep breath, only to discover that Ba Tu and the others’ mouths were covered in yellow sand, almost blocking their mouths and noses.
“Gold! My gold, this daddy is going to be rich …”
A wild laugh suddenly came from the front. Chen Guangda immediately turned his head and saw that half of the group of people who had just disappeared into the water were trapped in yellow sand and were sinking at a very fast speed. However, they ignored the danger and laughed wildly while holding onto a large handful of yellow sand.
“It’s quicksand …”
Chen Guangda took a step back in shock. The group of people on the other side were quickly drowned by quicksand, and their wild laughter stopped abruptly. However, Wang Ran suddenly rushed towards quicksand and cried out loudly, “Don’t go! I beg you, don’t leave me behind, honey!”
