Chu Han, who was running fast in the front, did not care whether it was a forbidden area or not. He just went wherever there was a path. The entrance on the right was different from the other places in the cave. It was dark, and the temperature was different from the outside.
Wangcai shivered as soon as it entered the cave. It asked Chu Han, "Chu Han, why is it so cold here?"
Chu Han also noticed the strange temperature. He ran along the entrance and sensed the temperature, "The deeper we go, the colder it is. The temperature outside is at least 40 degrees Celsius. The temperature at the entrance dropped by 10 degrees, and it dropped by another 10 degrees here. It's just a few hundred meters."
Wangcai was scared and hid in Chu Han's pocket, "What kind of strange place is this? Where does it lead to?"
At that moment, there was only darkness in front of them, and the cold air kept blowing on their faces. Even though Chu Han was at the peak of rank 7, he still could not bear it.
"I'm afraid the temperature inside is -40 to -50 degrees Celsius," Chu Han said without stopping.
"Then don't go in!"
Wangcai panicked, "We don't know what's inside. If the Yan family finds out, then so be it. We can just fight!"
In Wangcai's eyes, unknown and strange things were the scariest. However, Chu Han was the opposite. The closer it was to something, the more he would not let go of the opportunity.
The sounds of the Yan Family members chasing behind him were getting closer and closer. In just a short time, they were shouting and chasing after him. They were getting closer and closer, especially those people who kept shouting and cursing. Obviously, they were quite angry at Chu Han's sudden intrusion. They were even angrier at Chu Han's reckless intrusion into their family's forbidden area.
"When I catch him, I'll definitely roast him to a crisp!" Yan Liang said angrily. He was already seething with anger.
"Don't talk nonsense. Chu Han is very sensitive. You must have accidentally exposed the mechanism to enter the cave. It's important to catch him now!"
At this moment, the Yan Family's Clan Leader had personally caught up with them. Moreover, he was running at the very front with vigorous steps despite his old age. His eyes were spitting fire and his entire body was releasing anger.
Yan Liang didn't dare to speak anymore as he sped up in the direction where Chu Han had disappeared.
At this time, a large group of Yan Clan members followed behind these people. All of them rolled up their sleeves in anger. They already hated Chu Han to the bone.
At the entrance of the cave in the forbidden grounds of the Yan Family, a few women from the Yan Family were standing outside with a small number of children from the Yan Family. All of them had worried expressions on their faces. They were obviously extremely worried about their husbands or sons charging into the Yan Family's forbidden grounds to chase after Chu Han, but they could do nothing about it.
At this time, a young boy around eleven or thirteen years old standing outside the cave asked his mother in confusion, "Aren't the uncles going to catch the bad guys?
Why are you so worried? Is the bad guy very powerful? "
The woman pursed her lips. She wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she sighed and said, "It's not that the bad guys are powerful, it's the forbidden area …"
The woman's hesitation aroused the curiosity of the children of the Yan Family. They all surrounded her and asked questions.
"What's wrong with the forbidden area?
Is there anything there? "
"We've lived here since we were young but we've never entered the forbidden area. In the past, we always wanted to sneak in to play but father would find out and beat us up every time. Now, I haven't even gone in to see what it's like inside and that outsider has already gone in!"
"Me too. Why can't we enter the Yan Family's forbidden area but that outsider has already gone in?"
The woman felt helpless and could only explain, "The forbidden area is very dangerous. There's something that's the bane of the Fire Clan. Once you go in, you might not be able to come out!"
Hearing this, the children present were all startled, but they were also eager to try the unknown danger.
"What dangers?"
"Don't tell me there are people from the Water Clan imprisoned there?"
"How is that possible?
Haven't water-kind people always been our sworn enemies?
If we catch them, we'll definitely kill them. Why would we imprison them? "
"What?
There are no Water Clan people. The Water Clan people have all died out a thousand years ago! "
"Who said they died out?
I even heard Young Master and Clan Leader Grandpa mention the Water Clan! "
The group of children chattered noisily. Due to the ideas they'd been taught since young, they were extremely curious about the Water Clan. At that moment, they temporarily put the matter of the forbidden area aside.
Seeing that the children were no longer eager to enter the forbidden area, the women all heaved a sigh of relief. They once again looked towards the entrance of the forbidden area worriedly.
… …
At this moment, Chu Han had already used a terrifying speed to run into the depths of the cave. However, he no longer had the ability to think about the situation outside. This was because the temperature in the cave had already dropped to negative twenty degrees Celsius.
The ground beneath his feet was icy cold. Because it was so dark that he couldn't even see his own fingers, Chu Han couldn't clearly see the situation inside the cave. The perception of a peak rank seven was also slightly affected by the extremely low temperature. Right now, Chu Han could only vaguely feel that the four walls of the cave were emitting cold air. It was the kind of cold that came from the rocks in the cave.
It wasn't humid, nor was there any condensed ice. Everything was dry and cold!
With a trace of a slight test, Chu Han stretched out his hand to touch the ground beneath his feet. However, as soon as he touched it, he immediately jumped away. At the same time, his fingers that touched the surface of the rock instantly became numb.
"What's wrong?
What's the temperature of the surface of the rock? "
Wangcai immediately sensed that something was wrong. It asked nervously, "With your peak rank seven physique, you shouldn't have such a reaction in the temperature of negative twenty degrees Celsius. Moreover, your speed … isn't right!
Last time when we found the monolith in the Alps, the temperature there was even lower than here, but you didn't have such an exaggerated reaction! "
With Wangcai's familiarity with Chu Han, although it wasn't sharp enough to notice Chu Han's change every second, it could clearly see that Chu Han's speed had been reduced by more than one time. Most importantly, this distance wasn't considered long for Chu Han!
Chu Han's eyes were deep and bright in the darkness, "Indeed, it's not the problem of the temperature. The temperature of the rocks here is indeed lower than the air, but it's still within the normal temperature range. However, besides the low temperature, there's another kind of deadly coldness."
Wangcai was dazed. It was confused and repeated Chu Han's words, "Cold?
Deadly? "
"Yes!"
Chu Han's eyes became more profound and cautious, "It's not that simple, but it's a kind of coldness that can directly numb people's nerves. It's not caused by the temperature, but something else … I can't tell!"
