The old guy hurriedly inspected the surroundings, but where was there a road to find on the steep peak, Shi Jiu also observed the four sides of the peak for a while and said, "With such a steep mountain, I have a way to leave, but what should you do?"

The old guy patted his chest and said, "You go first, it's not too late to find someone here and come to rescue me." I see that the mountains are full of trees, and naturally there is something to satisfy my stomach. After going through the ordeal of the hungry hell, there is nothing I can't eat. Don't worry, I won't be starved to death for a while. ”

"Okay, be careful!" Shi Jiu thought for a moment and said, "You wait here for me to return." ”

Shi Jiu walked down a slightly gentle place on the mountain, walked all the way for a while, jumped for a while, and even slid directly down in some places, fortunately, there were sticking branches everywhere around the mountain, and Shi Jiu reached the foot of the mountain unscathed.

Arriving here, Shi Jiu found that the surrounding mountains surrounded a long and narrow valley, and the bottom of the valley was a shocking sight.

At the foot of the mountain is a meandering river, the water is thick and red, and it exudes a fishy smell, and a thick bloody smell comes to the nostrils. Although Shi Jiu had been mentally prepared for a long time, suddenly facing such a veritable river of blood still made his appetite tumble for a while.

Shi Jiu searched along the edge of the Blood River for a while, and he could clearly see that the Blood River was slowly circling around several peaks for a circle, and then flowed out of the mountain.

Shi Jiu followed the direction of the Blood River all the way to the exit of the Blood River and the valley, he found a high place to observe carefully, and finally saw the faint shadow of some sails outside the valley.

"Now that there is a ship, it proves that this place is not far from people. Shi Jiu nodded, these sailboats should be a sign of human activity, he immediately returned the same way, easily climbed to the top of the mountain, and saw the old guy standing on the edge of the cliff looking around.

Shi Jiu said: "I have reached the foot of the mountain, below is a slow-flowing blood river, the exit of the blood river can see the shadow of some sailboats, let's go down to the bottom of the valley now, and contact the sailboats at the end of the blood river." ”

"The mountains here are steep, and I can't easily handle them with my skills. I'm by your side, not only does it affect your speed, but it also adds a lot of danger. The old fellow said, "Why don't you let me stay here until you find a way and we can all leave safely." ”

Shi Jiu thought for a moment and said, "I can also go to the bottom of the valley with you on my back, don't you believe me?"

"I've caused you a lot of trouble along the way. The old fellow shook his head and said, "I just don't want to trouble you any more." ”

Shi Jiu said with a smile: "What's the trouble or not, we are now grasshoppers on a rope, we can't jump on you, and we can't run away from me!"

"Hehe, hey, I was so touched by this sentence! I think I've never felt like this when I've been through so many rights and wrongs in the Infernal Hell. The old guy also smiled and said, "Since you are so resolute, you are welcome."

Finish. ”

Shi Jiu nodded, and carried the old guy on his back, and he reached the bottom of the valley in a short time along the route he had just walked.

The viscous river of blood was still flowing slowly, and the strong smell of rot was everywhere, and the old guy broke free from Shi Jiu's back, bent down and vomited continuously.

After a long while, the old man stopped vomiting, straightened up and said, "The wolf meat that I gritted my teeth and ate finally vomited out." ”

Shi Jiu pointed to the distance and asked, "Can you see the shadow of the sail?"

The old guy looked into the distance, searched hard for a while, shook his head helplessly and said: "I can only see the long river of blood, and I can't see any shadow of the sail at all, maybe I myself have long been old and dizzy, if you can see it, it proves that we are not far from the crowd here." ”

"If you can't see the shadow of the sailboat, it's a sign that we're too far away. Shi Jiu said: "Since the place where I am standing is still too far away from Taniguchi, the people on the sailboat should not be able to spot us, and it is imperative that we rush to Taniguchi as soon as possible, so that the chance should be greater." ”

The old guy nodded firmly and said, "Well, I'll do what you say!"

Shi Jiu still had to carry the old guy, and he waved his hand again and again and refused to let Shi Jiu carry it anymore. They followed the river of blood, one after the other, to the mouth of the valley, and it took them three hours to reach the mouth of the valley because of the slow movement of the old fellow.

They slowly arrived at the mouth of the valley, and the sails in front of them could already be seen clearly.

Shi Jiu jumped on a rock and waved his arms, and the old guy also followed Shi Jiu's example and raised his arms and shouted, but unfortunately the two of them worked hard, and they couldn't see that the sailboat had noticed their movements.

The old fellow walked impatiently to the edge of the river of blood, jumped to his feet and shouted.

The slow-flowing river of blood suddenly tumbled, and many round bubbles rose from the viscous plasma, and the bubbles burst one after another, and the plasma splashed for a while.

Shi Jiu saw such a scene and realized the danger, he jumped to the old guy with an arrow step, and pulled him to the top of a rock, the old guy looked at Shi Jiu with a puzzled look and said, "What happened? What are you pulling me here for?"

Shi Jiu took a closer look at the old guy's body and said, "There should be something in the blood river in front of us, although I don't know what kind of monster is in the blood river, but you have attracted the attention of that thing just now, fortunately you didn't stick to the blood." ”

"It's just a little bit of blood!" the old guy smiled: "You are not afraid of the fierce fighters, but you didn't expect that the dignified Contra fighters were actually worried about a little blood in the blood pool of hell." ”

Shi Jiu said solemnly: "Do you remember that when you were in the Infernal Battlefield, the great nobles of Mo used to collect many items from various layers of hell, among which there was a steel thorn from the Blood Pool Hell, you should know that the Blood Pool Hell is also known as the Poisonous Water Hell, and the toxins on their steel thorns are extremely domineering, and it is by no means a simple joke." ”

The old guy was finally getting a little nervous, and he was there

After a careful look at his body, he said with relief: "Hehe! Fortunately, fortunately." I didn't get splashed with blood!"

"It's your luck this time, and it won't be so lucky next time. Shi Jiu let out a long breath and said, "If you haven't figured out what's inside the Blood River, don't shout loudly anymore." ”
