Chapter 115: Strangling
After so many years of relying on each other, supporting each other for so many years, and guarding the same secret together for so many years, their previous emotions may have been inseparable for a long time. It's a pity to write "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info......
Hua Lianyue shook her head gloomily, it's a pity that they are burdened with such a heavy hatred, and in this life, they are destined to not be able to achieve ordinary happiness like ordinary women.
The shark beads swaying between her forehead attracted Huo Lianjue's attention, he frowned and looked at the eye-catching Jin Bu Shao in her bun, and said, "Ah Tong is crazy, why did she change Yue'er into this auspicious dress?"
Hua Lianyue groaned slightly, and suddenly realized: "Could it be that Xiao Fengnan is the descendant of the couple who adopted Xiao Huaiqing." Ah Tong knew that what Xiao Huaiqing couldn't let go of was her titular brother, so she wanted to let the two of us worship in front of her, so that she could get her wish fulfilled. ”
No wonder Xiao Huaiqing would open a restaurant here, no wonder when Ah Tong pretended to be Ye Wushuang to lure the flower thief to take the bait, she obviously recognized who the owner of the eyebrow stone was, but she flatly denied it.
"Worship the ......" Huo Lianjue's eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold feeling burst out.
Hua Lianyue glanced at him soothingly, and said angrily: "She just thought about it, and before she had time to do anything, she let Xiao Fengnan stir it up." ”
The rippling glance immediately made all the unhappiness in Huo Lianjue's heart dissipate. just took her hand and secretly used some force, causing her to return him with a resentful little white look.
Huo Lianjue didn't see it, he only said to Master Minghui: "Master, now that Ah Tong is acting crazy and is out of control, how do you think we can stop her?"
"Amitabha. Master Minghui recited the Buddha's name and said with a wry smile: "The poor monk should do his best! Fortunately, Feng Nan can also resist her for a while." ”
As soon as these words came out, Hua Lianyue and Huo Lianjue were silent. Xiao Fengnan's skills were already amazing, but they didn't expect that in Master Minghui's mouth, they would only resist for a while. How big this Ah Tong's ability is, they don't dare to imagine it.
Yingge saw that they were all silent, so she said timidly: "Master Huo, in the past few days, I have secretly seen that Sister A Tong has captured several people, all of whom are locked up in the secret passage of the mountain wall, do you want to go and see." ”
Hua Lianyue, Huo Lianjue was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Where is the secret path? Take us to take a look!"
Yingge nodded, and as soon as she opened the door of the house, she heard the shouting sound of Ah Tong and Xiao Fengnan fighting not far away, and the two of them had already fought from indoors to outdoors.
Yingge obviously shrank when she heard Ah Tong's voice, it seems that she has been forced to guard Xiao Huaiqing's corpse these days, which makes Yingge have a strong fear of Ah Tong from the bottom of her heart.
"Amitabha. Master Minghui was obviously worried about Xiao Fengnan's safety, and he said to Huo Lianjue: "The poor monk goes to help Feng Nan, and the matter of saving people will be handed over to the adults." After saying that, he didn't care about Huo Lianjue's answer, and went straight to the sound of the fight.
Wufu Tower is built against the mountain, and the secret passage is naturally excavated according to the natural cracks of the mountain. Yingge took an oil lamp and led them to the hole covered by a large pile of firewood.
While cleaning up the firewood, she explained: "I also ran out of firewood once, and I accidentally found it when I came to pick up firewood. However, Sister Ah Tong warned me, saying that there were some poisons in it, and if she went in rashly and was accidentally injured by the poison, even she couldn't save her. ”
Hearing this, Hua Lianyue and Huo Lianjue exchanged glances with each other. Hua Lianyue asked, "Then if you rashly take us in now, aren't you afraid of being accidentally injured by those poisons?"
"I'm afraid!" Yingge sighed and said, "But I saw that the people Ah Tong imprisoned, including children and women, don't seem to be great traitors. If I don't save myself, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life. ”
Hua Lianyue patted the back of her hand when she heard this, but she felt that her hand was cold and stiff, it seemed that her heart was not as calm as it seemed on the surface.
Hua Lianyue comforted softly: "Don't worry, even if there is poison in it, it must be kept in captivity." If they are running around, these five blessing buildings are full of people every day, and they will not always be calm. ”
Yingge had already cleaned up the last bundle of firewood at the entrance of the cave, she patted the snow foam on her body, and smiled reluctantly: "I think so too, after all, Sister A Tong is not an innocent person who kills innocents indiscriminately." If it weren't for the boss's accident, she wouldn't have behaved abnormally. ”
As she spoke, she pushed open the stone door at the entrance of the cave, and a narrow passage in pitch black and simple appeared in front of them. "Let's go!" Yingge picked up the oil lamp and walked in front. Hua Lianyue and Huo Lianjue glanced at each other and followed without hesitation.
The passage is not wide, and it is only tolerated for a person to pass alone with a half-bent over. So Yingge walked at the forefront with an oil lamp, Huo Lianjue was in the center, and Hua Lianyue walked at the end at his insistence.
The light of the oil lamp was dim, and it could only illuminate the square inch in front of him, and Yingge inadvertently covered most of the light, Huo Lianjue could barely see, and Hua Lianyue was simply blind.
What's even worse is that this passage is not only narrow, but also curved, and Hua Liyue hit her head on the protruding stone wall several times because of the obstruction of her vision. After a few times, she touched her red and swollen forehead and sighed in her heart: It's okay now, take a trip to the tunnel, and when you go out, you will become a birthday star.
I listened to Huo Lianjue in front of me and said, "Yingge girl, how long is this passage?"
Yingge's crisp voice came: "It's the first time I've come in, and I don't know much about the situation inside. ”
Fortunately, the further back the passage became, the more spacious it became, and gradually the two of them could walk side by side with their heads up, and Hua Lianyue avoided the bad luck of becoming a birthday star.
Suddenly, Yingge stood still, she lifted the oil lamp, and said suspiciously, "Which way should I go!" Two dark holes appeared in front of her, and there were some jagged stalagmites at the entrances. Gusts of cold wind wafted out of the cave, making people feel chills all around.
"It's a natural cave. Huo Lianjue said incrediblely.
It's just that the oil light line is really limited, and the two caves are like two giant mouths that choose people to eat. It was pitch black inside, and you couldn't see what was going on.
"What should I do?" Yingge's face was anxious, and she said eagerly, "Which cave should we go to get in?"
Hua Lianyue and Huo Lianjue were also asked, they were also entering this cave for the first time, and the ghost knew where they could go. Huo Lianjue came closer, wanting to see more clearly through the oil lamp. Suddenly, a golden-clawed spider the size of a baby's fist hung down from the hole along the spider silk and shook like a demonstrative in front of his eyes.
The crystal clear spider silk almost stuck to the tip of his nose, and Huo Lianjue only felt that the hairs on his body stood up. He hurriedly raised his hand to stop Hua Liyue, who was unknown behind him and wanted to move forward, and said in a very low voice: "Retreat, retreat......"
"Ah, spider!" Yingge screamed, and she had already crawled out of the distance, and the oil lamp in her hand almost knocked over to the ground.
Hua Lianyue was stunned, and quickly came back to her senses, the only thing that could make Huo Lianjue so vigilant and out of shape was the golden-clawed spider that made him feel palpitations. She didn't say a word, and immediately followed him back quickly.
After the three of them withdrew a few steps, they found that the golden-clawed spider did not seem to have the intention of chasing them, but leisurely occupied the hole on the left and began to weave a web quickly.
Huo Lianjue stabilized his mind and said with a wry smile: "It seems that we have no choice but to enter the hole on the right." ”
"Okay!" Hua Lianyue took his hand and said lightly: "Let's leave our fate to God, and see if God wants us to die or live." ”
"Lord Huo, catch the flowers quickly, I, I'm afraid ......" At this time, Yingge retreated. She hid behind Huo Lianjue and said in shock: "I, I'm really scared, I don't dare to walk in front." ”
"It doesn't matter. Huo Lianjue stretched out his hand to take the oil lamp in her hand and said, "I'll lead the way, and you will follow us immediately." ”
Huo Lianjue took the lead with an oil lamp and led them into the cave on the right. Different from the previous narrowness, there is a sudden hole in the sky.
The cave is so open that a small oil lamp can't get a glimpse of it in its entirety. As far as the light could see, stalactites and stalactites hung overhead. The ground is also full of long and short stalagmites, like spring shoots after rain.
The uneven ground is slippery due to the perennial humidity, and the sound of water can be faintly heard.
"There seems to be an underground river in there. Huo Lianjue carefully identified the direction of the water flow, and walked forward tentatively step by step. "If there is an underground river, there must be a waterway to the outside world. Miss Yingge, do you know where there is an undercurrent around here?"
For a long time, no one answered!
"Yingge girl......" Huo Lianjue raised his voice again, and it was still a deathly silence.
Huo Lianjue instantly felt that his scalp was numb, and goosebumps stood up all over his body. He had been holding Hua Lianyue's hand, and he could also feel Yingge's footsteps behind them, why was it gone in a blink of an eye? He hurriedly raised the oil lamp in his hand higher, and looked around, but still didn't find Yingge's figure.
Darkness has always been terrifying, and in human consciousness, darkness is synonymous with horror, danger, and the unknown. The song of the warbler disappeared silently, adding a bit of gloom and fear to the darkness.
There was a deathly silence all around, and suddenly there was a faint hissing sound, like some animal crawling on the stone wall. "Listen......" Under the dim light, Hua Lianyue said with a solemn face: "There seems to be a snake crawling in this cave." ”
Huo Lianjue said suspiciously: "No! It's a harsh winter." ”
Yes, how can there be snakes in the snow?
The corners of Hua Lianyue's mouth hooked, revealing a sneering smile, and said, "This question, I still have to ask Miss Yingge!" As she spoke, she snatched the oil lamp from Huo Lianjue's hand and threw it at a dark corner.
There was a soft "pop", and with the sound of the oil lamp breaking, a bright red flame rushed up. instantly illuminated Yingge's face distorted by fear.
She looked at Huo Lianjue's speech, and held her breath and hid between the two upside-down stalactites. It's so secluded that it's hard to spot her if there's not enough light. It's just that she never expected that Hua Liyue would suddenly get into trouble and drop the oil lamp at her feet without warning.
Yingge's embroidered shoes were stained with lamp oil, and they immediately burned when they were stained by Mars.
"Fire, fire...... Help!" Yingge jumped to her feet in panic, beating the flames on her shoes in embarrassment.
Huo Lianjue just wanted to step forward to help, but Hua Lianyue pulled him. She looked at the stalactites on Yingge's head with a solemn face, and whispered: "Brother Lian, don't move, now is not the time to be kind." Look over there......"
Huo Lianjue followed the light of her eyes, and saw a white-scaled python with the thickness of a wooden barrel at the waist, with a splash, swimming along the stalactites to the firelight below. The scarlet snake letter it spat out almost licked to the top of Yingge's head.
Yingge was so frightened that she fell to the ground in embarrassment. While desperately crawling back, he screamed in horror: "Don't come, don't come...... Master Huo, I'm helping you, save me, help me!"
"Help us?" Hua Lianyue said coldly, "You obviously want to feed us to this strange python." ”
"What's going on?" Huo Lianjue looked at Hua Lianyue in surprise.
Hua Lianyue stared closely at the white-scaled monster python that was coiled on the stalactites and kept spitting out snake letters, and explained: "Many of her words and deeds are inconsistent, which has long aroused my suspicions. Let's just say that the previous golden-clawed spider is actually poisonous and non-venomous. Previously, in Boss Xiao's house, there were several golden-clawed spiders jumping in front of her, but she was indifferent.
And just now, she saw the spider at the entrance of the cave, but it was hiding farther away than us. This proves that she can actually tell which spiders are poisonous and which are not.
This contradicts what she said before that she had never been here. So when she pretended to be scared and handed you the oil lamp to lead the way, I secretly watched her every move. ”
As he spoke, the white-scaled python had already used its long, powerful tail to entangle Yingge's lower limbs. Circle after circle, the white-scaled python slowly tightened, and the sound of broken bones echoed in this empty cave with the terrible screams of Yingge.
"Help me, I don't want to die...... Yingge let out a desperate scream like a night owl. Her face was distorted by the intense pain, and her body was clenched by the white-scaled python, but she was powerless to break free.
It's not that they don't want to save, they are unarmed, and there is no way to save them.
Hua Lianyue, Huo Lianjue looked at this terrifying scene and shook his head secretly.
Before throwing the oil lamp, Hua Liyue didn't think about what she would encounter, she just instinctively suspected that the oil lamp would bring danger to them.
Thinking about it now, probably snakes are born cold-blooded animals, but they don't know what secret methods they use to make them unable to hibernate in this cold winter, so they are particularly sensitive to warm things such as fire and flames.
If she had hesitated a little at that time, maybe it was Huo Lianjue who was strangled by the white-scaled monster python at this moment. Looking at the frightened and painful Yingge, instead of sympathy, Hua Lianyue felt a kind of happiness in her heart.
Yingge's mournful cries for help became smaller and smaller, her body twitched violently, and her whole person shook like chaff. A large amount of blood began to pour out frantically along her eyes, ears, mouth and nose, and she couldn't survive. The white-scaled python opened its huge mouth and began to devour the delicious food in satisfaction.
Huo Lianjue quietly pulled Hua Lianyue and whispered: "Take advantage of the fact that it doesn't have time to pay attention to us now, let's leave quickly!"
