Chapter 22: Finding a Wife

The people above were all frightened, and no one could have imagined that Hai Liang would jump down desperately for the sake of Erya, and the villagers on the pimple slope were all taken aback and looked at each other.

The bottom of the cliff was so dark that nothing could be seen except the creaking of the branches.

After more than ten seconds, the sound of branch cracking was no longer audible.

They felt that Erya was dead, and Wang Hailiang was also dead.

There is a hundred-zhang deep cliff below, straight down, almost at a 90-degree angle, there is no rock climbing, and the mountain wall is also very smooth, not to mention people, monkeys can't climb up.

Since ancient times, no one has ever gone down to this place, and no one has ever come up to see anyone who has fallen down. No one knows what lies beneath the valley.

When Zhang Damao was crying violently, someone suddenly shouted: "I know, there should be a river under the cliff, the river is very deep, and the water will definitely wash Erya downstream, let's go downstream to find it." ”

Zhang Damao raised his head when he heard this, and a bright light of hope finally flashed in his gray eyes. He shouted, "Follow me!" "The first one rushed down the mountain trail downstream.

The man was right, there was indeed a river at the bottom of the Valley of the Spirits, and the river was surging, and when it passed through the Valley of the Spirits, it rushed downstream, and there was a waterfall somewhere.

In summer and autumn every year, due to the abundant rain, the flow of the waterfall is large, and the drop is also large, reaching a height of more than 300 meters.

Erya will definitely fall into the river if she falls, maybe there is a glimmer of hope.

So everyone started to look along the cliff, and after a detour of more than 20 miles, they finally came to the bottom of the waterfall.

When they saw the waterfall and the waterhole beneath it, everyone's hopes were extinguished again.

The waterfall has long been out of water, the cliff wall is a dry ice fork, and the weather is too cold this winter, and the water upstream has long frozen. The pool below is also half a foot of ice.

In other words, even if Er Ya falls into the river, he won't be able to get up, and he may fall apart on the ice.

Zhang Damao sat on the ground again, his heart like a handful of burned charcoals, turned into a pile of dead ashes.

……

Wang Hailiang's body was like a cannonball, falling into the bottom of the Ghost Valley, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

But he didn't have anything to do......

There are many small trees growing on the mountain wall, lush and dense, all of which grow horizontally, like human arms.

In the gaps of the trees there were also many green vines, which were particularly long and strong, and the arms were as thick as ropes hanging down.

Every spring and summer, these branches and green vines show a tender new green, and the leaves are particularly lush, rendering the whole mountain green.

After winter, all the dead leaves are gone, and the branches and vines of the trees are revealed.

The trees helped him a lot, slowing most of the momentum and lifting him up again and again like big hands.

Coupled with the thick clothes on his body, he wore wolf skin and shoulders, and after the sound of pulling and pulling, his body was supported by a thick branch halfway up the mountain.

There was a longing fire in his eyes, and despite his own scars, he was worried about Erya's safety.

He did not stop, but jerked up a dead vine, and sped down like a monkey, and rushed out to the bottom of the cliff.

Wang Hailiang is not simple, and his skills are extremely agile. He is not only the hunter of Daliang Mountain, but also the soul of Daliang Mountain. I am very familiar with every grass and tree on the mountain.

When he was eight years old, he followed his father up the mountain to collect medicine, and at the age of fourteen, he rode alone and carried a shotgun to Daliang Mountain.

With his agile skills, the pride of not admitting defeat, plus a shotgun and a mastiff, countless wild wolves and bears have died in his hands over the years.

He had conquered the highest mountain and descended the most remote and dangerous valley in the place. Because there is the rarest Ganoderma lucidum grass on the mountain peak, and there is the rarest blood bird's nest in the valley, which is worth a thousand gold.

Ganoderma lucidum grass and blood bird's nest are rare and valuable medicinal materials in the world, which can treat many incurable diseases, and are also the best medicine that all doctors dream of.

It's not that Hailiang's kung fu is good, these are all forced out by hard life, and in order to survive, he must do this.

Over time, the steepness of Daliang Mountain and the ferocity of wild beasts forged him into a steely giant. Hundreds of hunters in the mountains combined, none of them had that kind of courage and pride.

Without the ability to climb mountains, without the courage and guts to confront wild wolves, it is impossible to get good medicinal materials.

Because the night was dark, the moonlight could not reach the inside of the Valley of Ghosts, and the valley was so dark that I couldn't see my fingers.

The sea had come down in this place, and he knew that there was a big river below, and the river was very deep, and Erya's body fell into the river.

The valley is airtight, and cold air can't get in, so the river doesn't freeze completely.

When he saw the sparkling ripples of the river, he did not hesitate to plunge headlong.

A fierce man dived out thirty or forty meters away, his head popping out of the water, he wiped the water droplets from his face, and screamed loudly: "Erya-! Where are you? Erya-you come out!! ”

But there was no sound at all except for the echo, and there was no figure in Erya.

So a fierce man lurked in the water again, touching back and forth.

He knew that the second girl was unlucky, and until now, the girl still couldn't swim.

In addition, it is winter, the clothes on the body are very thick, once the clothes are soaked in water, the weight will increase immediately, which will drag the person into the deep water, and the cold river water will instantly suck the person's body temperature, and within a few minutes, he will become unconscious and gradually lose consciousness.

Wang Hailiang was anxious, lurking again and again, and emerging from the water again and again, hoping to grab Erya's clothes and fish the girl up.

His face turned pale, and he gasped for air, and clumps of air floated from the water.

Sure enough, the river is flowing, but I don't know where it flows, and the flowing river water will not freeze.

He groped and touched and searched in the river, and found from one end to the other, but he still couldn't see the girl's shadow.

His heart was like a knife, and all that flashed in his mind was the handsome figure of Erya, as well as a sweet smiling face.

"Brother Hailiang, I am rare to you, are you rare? …… Brother Hailiang, take me away, let's elope together...... Brother Hailiang, run, my dad will kill you......"

Erya's voice still echoed in his ears. He remembered that when he was in the cave just now, the two of them hugged each other and wrapped themselves, rolling from one end of the cave to the other, and from that end to this end, and the two helpless bodies were twisted together like twisted flowers, and trembled violently.......

He kissed the girl's face and kissed the girl's lips, and the woman's beautiful and graceful body stirred up an incomparable tide, giving him not only his body, but also his soul.

Wang Hailiang felt that he owed Erya's lifelong debt, and as soon as the girl left like this, she would never be able to repay it.

An inseparable lust arose in his heart...... This kind of covetousness is called love.

Hailiang touched and touched in the river, drifted and floated. One moment sneaking in, the next coming up, he was exhausted and shouted hoarsely.

Gradually, he didn't have any strength, looking at the long river, looking at the small waterfall in front of him, he knew that Erya must have been washed downstream.

This section of the waterfall is also very high, more than 300 meters, and the downstream is a reservoir, on which a thick layer of ice has formed, and the fierce river rushes down from here, and I don't know where it flows.

He really wanted to go down and follow Erya, but when he thought of his parents who were still alive, and thought that Zhang Damao and Da Baili had no one to take care of him after Erya's death, he dispelled this impulse.

"Erya! My sister----! Wang Hailiang was grief-stricken and let out a heart-rending cry, and the entire Daliang Mountain trembled three times.

……

Zhang Damao and twenty or thirty villagers returned to the pimple slope after dawn, when the sun had already risen.

The moment he entered the door, his daughter-in-law Da Baili pounced on him and asked anxiously, "Where is Erya?" What about our daughter? ”

Zhang Damao had a sad face, his eyes were dull, and he muttered, "It's gone, Erya...... No, I knocked down the cliff, I ...... He's a bastard, I'm damned! I killed our daughter! ”

Zhang Damao squatted on the ground and opened his bow left and right, and slapped himself a few ear scrapers.

The big white pear was also stunned, and the woman's body went limp, and she fell to the ground.

Then he pounced on the man like crazy, and threw himself on Zhang Damao's body, pinching and twisting. "You're a thing! Give me back my daughter, pay me back my daughter...... I can't live this day! ”

The big white pear couldn't bear the grief of the bereaved daughter, rolled her eyes, stalked her neck, and ...... He also passed out.

After the kind-hearted villagers carried her into the house, pinched her again, twisted her forehead, and woke her up, the woman rushed onto the street and went straight to Daliang Mountain.

Da Baili cried and screamed and almost went crazy, Zhang Damao was worried that the woman was in danger, and followed her figure to chase after her.

At the moment when the big white pear rushed to Daliang Mountain, Wang Qingxiang and Hai Liangniang also got the news that their son fell off the cliff.

Hai Liangniang was furious, Sun Monkey jumped up like a monkey, and the woman picked up the ancestral gelding knife, set up a somersault cloud and flew out of the house desperately, planning to fight with Zhang Damao, she was going to castrate him.

"Zhang Damao! The old lady relies on your ancestors for eight lifetimes, you bastard! Cut off my incense, my aunt and grandmother fought with you! ”

Wang Hailiang is the only seedling of the Wang family, and it is also the hope of all women, she wants to avenge her son.

Wang Qingxiang's eyes were quick, and he stopped the woman at once, and said: "Hailiang Niang, don't be impulsive, Hailiang is fine, I know his skills, he has gone down the cliff in the Ghost Valley several times, and there will be no danger at all." ”

Hai Liangniang's eyes glared angrily and said, "Is that it?" No way! The old lady can't swallow this breath, you let go, I'll cut Zhang Damao! ”

Wang Qingxiang grabbed the woman's arm and didn't let go, and persuaded him bitterly: "Mother, don't worry, it's okay, Hailiang will definitely come back, and he will come back soon, but ...... Erya can't come back. ”

Wang Qingxiang's words are right, Wang Hailiang finally returned home after three poles in the sun.

He was soaked, tired, listless, and mentally decadent to the extreme.

He stepped into the house with heavy steps, and Da Bai Pear, Zhang Damao and Wang Qingxiang couldn't wait for a long time.

The four of them rushed over together and asked, "Erya, where is Erya?" ”

Wang Hailiang didn't make a sound, his eyes were bloodshot, and he glared at Zhang Damao hatefully.

Then he turned around and walked into the house, like a mountain that had collapsed, lying on the kang for half a month without getting up.
