Chapter 9 Living Waterways, Dead Waterways

After discussing for a while, the water in the kitchen was already boiling, and Jin Laosan's mother-in-law came over and asked me to take a bath and brought me a set of clean clothes. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

This should be Jin Laosan's better clothes, it is a blue Zhongshan suit, but the tailor is very eccentric. It is estimated that it will cost less than a hundred.

Even so, compared to what he was wearing, the "grade" seemed to be a little higher.

From here, it can be seen that their daily life is not rich.

People who can have a certain amount of cultivation, are willing to be poor, and can't even get the money to save their daughter's life, if they don't have a bad brain, then they have a good character and make people respect.

I think Jin Laosan and the rest of them should belong to the latter.

After taking a bath, as soon as I came out, Jin Laosan's mother-in-law took out my changed clothes to wash, and I was polite to her. Said let it go, I'll wash it, the sister-in-law smiled, said you have to do a big thing, I don't know anything about a mother-in-law, I can help wash the clothes, you go to rest, this clothes are stained with blood, if you don't wash them out quickly, you can't wear them.

When I returned to the hall, Ma Bald and Lao Zhuang had already left, I heard movement in the side room, walked over, and Jin Laosan's voice came from inside: "Second brother Wang, come in." ”

I'm obedient. Stepping over the threshold, he found the smell of Chinese medicine in the room, while Jin Laosan was sitting in front of the bed with a kerosene lamp.

I walked into the house and found a little girl lying on the bed, thirteen or fourteen years old, not pretty, but delicate, a child in the mountains, generally small, not as tall and mature as the little girl in the city, her hair was slightly yellow, her lips were tightly pursed, and she was slightly white.

I asked Jin Laosan. Say your daughter?

Jin Laosan smiled, but as if crying, he nodded. That's right, it's my daughter, named Jinnier, nicknamed Fat Nier, I just want her to gain a little fatter, but I didn't expect to be so thin all the time - this child was bitten when she went to pick herbs, and on the edge of the cliff, the herbs were protected by snakes. We always knew, so we didn't go, but she didn't know, so she just bitten it, and if she didn't know some way, she would have been scrapped on the spot......

Hearing him say this, I felt sad, sighed, and couldn't help asking, Brother Jin, there are many ways to make money, why do you ......

I didn't say anything more halfway through my words, for fear of hurting the other person's pride.

The third Jin smiled miserably, and said that in fact, I want to make money, and it's not impossible, there was a boss who heard of the name of our Anihadu, and came to us, saying 400,000 a year, let us be his bodyguard, but I just can't rest assured that I can't go to the work in the field, as well as their mother and daughter; And when my father taught me, he also told me that if people are too rich, they are prone to lazy thoughts, and only by being honest can they become strong......

This passage made me awe-inspired, and said Brother Jin, you are right.

Under the oil lamp, I looked at the face of Jin Laosan's daughter again and sighed.

As a father, I also have the suffering that Jin Laosan is suffering at the moment, so I am very sad, Jin Laosan saw it, asked me a few words, and then arranged a room for me to rest.

I was very tired this day, so I slept until noon, I was called up at noon, ate a meal of sweet potatoes and rice, and then followed the three of them to set off together, and came to the mouth of a canyon in the Jinsha River.

Before leaving, the four of them squatted on the edge of the canyon to discuss things, and Jin Laosan told us that it would take about four hours to get from here to the bottom of the hanging well, that is, we would not be able to get there until six o'clock in the afternoon.

If we arrive, we still have to sneak into the Five Poison Miao Village, so someone must make some trouble and distract the other party's energy.

The bald man slapped his thigh and said that this is easy to do, and I will light a fire and burn them in the mountain behind them.

Jin Laosan's eyes lit up, and he said that this is a good idea, but you have to be careful, don't make a forest fire, and then the sin will be great.

The bald man was still indignant because of last night's incident, saying that he scolded the next door, and Lao Tzu couldn't wait to set fire to all the turtle son's stockades, which was called Chang Fun......

Jin Laosan glared at him and said What are you talking about? The Five Poison Sects are all a bunch of scum, but there are still many ordinary people in the village, including the elderly, children, and women, and you have the ability to burn them to death together, where are you going?

His prestige is quite high, as soon as he said this, Ma Bald suddenly became embarrassed, smiled embarrassedly, and said Look at you, don't I just want to be fast?

Jin Laosan didn't pay attention to him anymore, but assigned the task: "In this way, Ma Bald, you prepare during the day, get some firestarters, and ...... at night At eleven o'clock, we will set fire to make the movement louder and attract their attention, while the second brother Wang and I will take advantage of the chaos to do business--As for Lao Zhuang, you will pick up the bald man and us on the periphery, do you know? ”

Everyone said okay, the matter is so decided, Jin Laosan turned around to look at me, and said Second Brother Wang, that waterway, there is a distance that needs to be held and swim, can you?

The bald man said next to him Ouch, the second brother Wang said that it was okay to hold it for two hours, why are you worried?

I smiled and nodded, saying it's okay, I can do it.

Although it was said that it was an action at eleven o'clock in the evening, Jin Laosan had only heard that he had not walked through the waterway, so in order to make enough time, he decided to set off immediately at less than two o'clock in the afternoon.

After waving to Ma Bald and Lao Zhuang, the two climbed down the mountain wall and came to a gap here. Brother Adon.

Looking down from above, I can see that there is indeed a crack of less than two meters extending into the mountain, before coming, I have wrapped all my belongings in a tarpaulin, and the rest is placed in Jin Laosan's house, as for the stainless steel soft sword, I wrapped it around my waist.

The two jumped down from the mountain wall more than three meters high, the water was fast, but they swam hard, and they were not washed downstream, but went into the crack.

I swam in it for a few minutes, but at the end, Jin Laosan turned around and said to me, Brother Wang, there is a dark waterway ahead, you swim with me - by the way, you really don't need scuba?

The scuba he refers to is a plant sac similar to the alveoli of the lungs, which can be used to take a few breaths underwater and enhance endurance.

I shook my head and said no, you can lead the way.

Jin Laosan looked at me and was sure, and without saying any more, a fierce man plunged into the water.

I followed Jin Laosan to swim into the dark passage, at first I could still feel the light, and after swimming a distance, the natural light disappeared, then Jin Laosan took out a thing from his arms, as if it was the fruit of a plant, twisted, emitting a slight light.

He took me with this light and swam all the way forward.

Because this waterway has deviated from the turbulent Jinsha River outside, it doesn't take much effort, but it is inevitable that there will be some difficulties if you keep holding your breath.

Of course, this is really not a big deal for me, who was born in the South China Sea.

Holding his breath like this, he was in the water for more than half an hour, and finally came to a closed secret passage, which was no longer full of water, but there was a half-empty cave above, Jin Laosan floated up, and I also floated up with him.

As soon as he came out of the water, he heard his exaggerated breathing, apparently holding his breath during the dive just now.

Jin Laosan sucked for a while, then turned around and said with a happy face: "Second Brother Wang, you can, you have been swimming for so long, you have been holding your breath, you are not red in the face and your heart is not beating, it is amazing." ”

I was humble, not smug, but he felt more and more that I was reliable, nodded at me, and swam forward.

We swam and stopped in this narrow waterway, and the space above the waterway was large for a while, and then completely closed, and only the diving party could pass through, and we swam for I don't know how long, and suddenly there were two waterways in front of us, and they crossed at the junction.

When he was here, Jin Lao Santing didn't go any further.

I asked what's wrong, where does it lead to the hanging well?

He said that we are now under the hanging well, but these two roads are very famous, one is a living waterway, and the water for drinking and living in the hanging well is from here, and it is also the place where we are going; And the other waterway, going to a field specially made by the Five Poisons Sect, which is home to all kinds of poisonous insects, snakes and ants, and if people enter it, they will become scum......

When he said this, he looked at me with some uneasiness, thinking that I would be angry.

He hesitated and said Second Brother Wang, don't blame me for not saying it before......

I behaved very calmly, saying that since you have already accompanied me, you must be ready to go out, what do I have to say?

He said to me solemnly, "Thank you, I'll go ahead in a moment, and if you see something wrong, turn around and run." ”

I was amazed, and said, "Ah, you don't know which way is the living waterway?"

Jin Laosan's expression was a little unnatural, and then swam towards the left waterway, I had no choice but to follow him closely, the two of them swam like this for more than a hundred meters, suddenly I felt that something was wrong, and my hand subconsciously touched to the side, and I grabbed a piece of cold and slippery things.

I rub, it's a snake......

Not only snakes, but also a large number of water snakes, full of water snakes, fill the place......

This is not a living waterway, it is the door of death!
