The Thunder God Novel - Chapter 153

Chapter 153 Snowflakes Like Blades (1)
There was still a thick layer of ice on the rock wall at the entrance of the cave. When they turned a corner, they could no longer see the ice. The green-black rock wall was filled with water droplets. This was a place where cold and heat met. Not far away, there was a small pool of water. A faint sound could be heard coming from the depths of the cave.

The hammer raised its hand to signal everyone to stop. Xin Zhaolun whispered, “Be careful. Someone should be more advanced than us.”

Wild Axe whispered, “Let’s see who it is first. We have no chance of retreating.”

Xin Zhaolun nodded and said, “Try your best to avoid conflict. If you really can’t, don’t hold back!”

Lei Xingfeng already understood what Xin Zhaolun meant. This was the only place to rest for the night. It was impossible for them to retreat outside. If they could not negotiate to share the cave with each other, then they could only fight. They could either kill each other or be killed by each other. As for retreating to the wild for the night, it was no different from courting death.

The group of people carefully touched it.

Lei Xingfeng was puzzled that no one was on guard.

Boom!

A loud tremor came from the entrance of the cave. Xin Zhaolun and the others were all stunned. They were actually fighting inside.

Everyone’s footsteps instantly accelerated. They were already fighting. Of course, they didn’t need to hide and be careful anymore. Only then did Lei Xingfeng feel relieved. No wonder no one was on guard. It turned out that the battle had begun inside. In other words, there were two groups of people entering the cave, and they were the third group of people.

An enormous space appeared, surrounded by countless inverted stalactites. At the center was a pool of water that emitted curling hot air, and the ground around the pool was uneven.

The two groups of people confronted each other across the pond, and two of them fought on the pond.

When Xin Zhaolun rushed in with a group of people, he immediately attracted the attention of the people on both sides. The two of them clashed on the pond, and the two of them lightly flipped back. They stopped fighting, and the people on both sides stared at the newcomers.

Lei Xingfeng followed behind Feng Ying into the cave. The cave was not dark, nor did he know what substance was on the cave wall. The entire cave wall emitted a faint cyan light, illuminating the cave.

With his sharp eyes after cultivation, he could clearly see everything in the cave.

There weren’t many people on either side. Lei Xingfeng counted them. There were four people on the left and three on the right. Just like the people they entered, there were 14 people in the cave. Xin Zhaolun’s group was the largest group.

Lei Xingfeng looked carefully. He discovered that there was an injured person in both groups. Furthermore, their clothes were very unfamiliar. They should not be locals, nor should they be people from their place. The most peculiar thing was that each of them had a local natives. They stood far away and looked like they were watching the fun.

Xin Zhaolun and the hammer stood in front of them. After Xin Zhaolun saw the people present clearly, he heaved a sigh of relief. He said indifferently, “You guys continue. We were just passing by.”

This was the first time Lei Xingfeng had seen Xin Zhaolun’s belly turn black. He almost didn’t laugh out loud. What did he mean by you guys continuing? Still passing by?

How did the two sides dare to continue fighting? One had to know that the people who entered were not to be trifled with at first glance. Moreover, the numbers were not something they could compare to. How they joined one side was definitely a calamity for the other side. Furthermore, they could tell that Xin Zhaolun did not want to communicate with them. This was not a place to make friends, especially since these people were outsiders.

XinFeng whispered, “Uncle Ying, who are they?”

Feng Ying shook his head and said, “I’ve never seen anyone who has the ability to come here before. It’s not that simple. We have a lot of people and we’re also strong, so they don’t dare to do anything. If we were just two or three people, hehe, you’ll find a difference.”

XinFeng said, “Will they make a move?”

Uncle Eagle said, “Yes! They will even work together to drive us away.”

XinFeng said in disbelief, “If we join the side, won’t there be a problem?”

Uncle Eagle smiled and said, “The problem is that you can’t join. Look carefully. They’re from the same place and they’re all dressed the same.”

Lei Xingfeng glanced around and had to admit that Feng Ying’s words made sense. Of course, they had the advantage now, so the other party should be afraid of them.

The opposing sides suddenly muttered a few words, but Lei Xingfeng did not understand a single word. Then, he saw the people on both sides retreat and actually sat down to armistice.

Xin Zhaolun nodded and said, “Alright, let’s find a place to rest and be on guard.” He was too lazy to pay attention to the other party. It was best not to fight. He had worked so hard all the way. If he fought again, he wouldn’t be that crazy. In any case, he had already intimidated the other party. As long as the other party didn’t fight, he wouldn’t do anything.

The cave was very large, enough for several hundred people to rest. There were only fourteen people here, and they could find a large enough place to rest without interfering with each other.

Hammer and Wild Axe kept urging for food to be cooked. After walking for a day in this weather, the consumption was not ordinary. No wonder Lei Xingfeng felt extremely hungry. He said, “Who will cook?”

Everyone looked at each other. Xin Zhaolun raised his hand and said, “Although I can cook, my taste is very bad …”

Crazy Eagle and Tiger Addict were about the same. As for Hammer Head and Wild Axe, they couldn’t be counted on. The two of them were foodies, but they weren’t good at cooking. Their staple food was half-raw meat. They roasted it over the fire and began to eat it. The reason why the two of them were willing to follow them was because they hoped to eat something good.

Jin Daya said weakly, “I can eat …”

Lei Xingfeng smiled bitterly. He thought that his cooking skills were just two knives. In his previous life, they were extremely ordinary. In this life, they hadn’t improved much. However, seeing these unreliable fellows, he could only personally do it. At least, he cooked it himself, which was suitable for his taste.

“I’ll cook it. It’s delicious … You don’t have to pay attention to it anymore. Just eat it, hehe.”

Xin Zhaolun said, “I don’t care. It’s good that I can eat.”

Crazy Eagle and Tiger Addict also raised their hands and said, “I don’t care.”

The only requirement for Hammer Head and Wild Axe was that they had enough flavor. It was good as long as they were salty. Ever since they ate the dishes of outsiders, they had frantically liked them. No matter what they cooked, it was much better than eating raw meat.

Lei Xingfeng nodded and said, “Alright, I’ll do it.”

He took out a huge copper pot and erected a pile of wood. He filled the pot with water and lit the fire. Instantly, a red light flashed. Everyone sat down around the fire and roasted the fire. Their entire bodies stretched out.

The other two groups were obviously not prepared for this. They also lit a fire, but did not cook food. Instead, they took out dried meat and roasted it on the fire for a while before eating it dry.

Lei Xingfeng put in fresh meat, bacon, air-dried meat, plus a lot of dried mushrooms, dried bamboo shoots, and some dried fruits. He threw them all into a big copper pot. He took out a salt bowl, which was called a salt ring in Myriad Lakes. A salt bowl was about half the size of a grapefruit. It was said that this salt bowl was made in a rock groove.

He forcefully broke open the salt bowl. Lei Xingfeng’s taste was very heavy, so when he boiled it, he would put in a lot of salt. When the water boiled, he grabbed a large handful of chili peppers and threw them in. Immediately, a strong fragrance of meat spread out.

The hammer revealed an extremely salivating expression. Especially when this fellow started drooling again, dripping down the corners of his mouth and flowing out uncontrollably.

Xin Zhaolun grabbed him and said, “Damn it, I said … don’t come any closer. Do you want to drop your saliva into the pot?”

The hammer head smiled foolishly and said, “Fragrant ah … get closer and smell more intimate …”

XinFeng almost knocked over the copper pot. He said, “Don’t worry, it will be over soon.”

Feng Ying took out more than a dozen thick biscuits. They were all baked biscuits. Each of them was the size of a pot lid and was as thick as two fingers. The biscuits were firm and hard as bricks. They had to be torn apart and soaked in thick broth before they could move.

This kind of chowder was not difficult. Lei Xingfeng could cook it easily and happily. Anyway, he could just throw in all the dishes he could think of.

After cooking for half an hour, the hammer and the mad axe jumped straight into the air. It was not easy for XinFeng to say, “Alright, Uncle Eagle, come help.”

Uncle Eagle suppressed his laughter and said, “Alright, I’ll do it.”

Each of them held a huge bowl, Everyone was sweating profusely, The crashing sound was extremely tempting. At least the other two groups of people had killing intent in their eyes. They wished they could steal this group of unscrupulous food. It was too irritating. They could not sit still just by smelling the strong fragrance. However, they all knew that the group of people were definitely not to be provoked. It was too exaggerated to fight for a pot of hot vegetable soup.

If they didn’t have anything to eat, it was fine to make a move. However, there was something to eat. Although it wasn’t delicious, it was still enough to fill their stomachs. It wasn’t worth it to make a move again.

XinFeng accidentally saw two groups of people, their eyes shining like wolves. He whispered, “Be careful, they seem to have ill intentions.”

“It’s fine,” said Feng Ying. “We have a lot of people, and our strength isn’t bad. They won’t dare to make a move.”

Xin Zhaolun said, “We should try our best not to make a move. It will be very troublesome to get injured here.”

He had cooked a total of two large pots of chowder to feed the seven big bellies.

The hammer head patted his stomach satisfactorily and said, “Delicious, delicious … Little brother’s cooking is not bad!”

Berserk Axe also praised, “It’s better than eating at Frost Horizon Castle.”

Jin Daya raised his head slightly and said indifferently, “It’s delicious …” Then, he fell silent. This fellow didn’t have any sense of existence at all, so it was easy to ignore him.

Actually, Sister Hong’s cooking was not worse than Lei Xingfeng’s, but she used less salt. Lei Xingfeng’s taste was heavy, and she used a lot of seasonings, which also increased the salty taste. These two fellows also had heavy flavors, so they naturally felt that it was delicious.

Everyone leaned against the cave wall to rest. Lei Xingfeng continued to cultivate. The effect of cultivating here was extremely good, even better than in Hanya Castle. Of course, he would not let it go.

The two groups of people were also cultivating and resting. The three groups of people temporarily calmed down. Only the firewood was still crackling and releasing a slight explosive sound.
