Chapter 220
"What did you say?!" Reyimu threw the rope on his waist and pounced on Meng Zheng like a hungry tiger predator.
Meng Zheng has no way back, Reyimu castrates fiercely, Rong 13 is squeezed on the outermost edge of the cave entrance and has no time to pull, if this time it is really pounced, Meng Zheng will have to be hit with three punches and two kicks. Lan Zui's face sank, although he was unwilling, he still wanted to stop him, but he was pulled by Jun Yihuang's arm.
"Ripples?"
"Wait."
"If you dare to touch me, let him rot underneath."
Meng Zheng didn't dodge his words, and his words were unhurried, but Reyimu's fist stopped in front of her.
Reyimu was shocked and suspicious, and shouted, "What do you mean? β
"You want to get him up?"
As soon as these words came out, not only Reyim, but Sabir also immediately looked at Meng Zheng with eager eyes: "You...... Is there a way? β
"We are not good people, so why should we save him?"
Speaking of which, Lan Zui, Rong Thirteen, and Bai Suhe all dealt with Sandao and Jiuliu and ate together, and immediately understood the meaning of Meng Zheng and stopped blocking it.
Reyimu was stunned, his brain was the best to use, and he figured it out in a blink of an eye, and quickly put away his anger, squeezing out a stammering smile: "Where is it, it's us who didn't do it right, it's us who are not good......"
Sabir followed suit: "I...... Lift him up, we ...... Lead the way and don't run! β
Meng Zheng smiled, his round eyes narrowed slightly, quite cute: "I don't believe it." β
"That'...... That ......"
"It's okay to save him, I want you to swear."
When Reyimu heard this request, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, didn't say a word, and immediately knelt on his knees: "I, Reyim, swear, you are all my friends of Reyimu, if I do something wrong again, let me five thunders-"
"I'm not done yet, what's the hurry." Meng Zheng was still smiling, but there was no smile in his eyes, and he pointed at Reyimu: "I want you to swear to your true god that from now on, you will answer our questions, and you will not hide them, and you will not abandon us to flee by ourselves." If you regenerate a different heart, your three brothers will die in Karubasazi and fall into hell forever, and their souls will remain in this devil's land to become Iblis's servants. β
With a slight shift of his fingers, he turned to Sabir: "You too." β
This oath was much harsher than Reyimu's own, and it was no different from a deed of sale. Hearing this, Reyim and Sabir's faces changed, and they glanced at each other, slightly hesitating.
"That...... In case of danger...... We can't ......."
"There's no room for you to bargain right now."
Reyimu's face turned from blue to black, connecting several changes, and finally gritted his teeth and made an oath in Chinese and Moke respectively according to the rules of Moke's teachings and according to Meng Zheng's words.
Siri Ahong is Sabir's brother, and since Reyim has made an oath, Sabir did not hesitate at the moment, followed the recitation, and then looked at Meng Zheng.
Meng Zheng ignored the two of them anymore, bent down and squeezed past Bai Suhe and Lan Zui, and walked towards the other side of the platform.
Lan Zui waited for Meng Zheng to disappear around the corner of Zizi with a strange expression, and then whispered to Jun Yihuang: "What is she doing?" β
Although everyone knows that Meng Zheng is different from the past, she has always tried her best to hide her changes, especially in front of Bai Suhe. Lan Zui never thought that Meng Zheng would be a β‘β‘ here, just now she thought that Meng Zheng's brain was too strict and stupid, and she was completely replaced by Xia Ruoqing.
"Get angry, spread fire." Jun Yihuang replied lightly.
"Angry?! Who's going to give birth toβoh! Lan Zui's expression became even more weird, "How do you know?" β
"It's the same when you're angry."
"I-you said Su Lingyu or me?"
"It's all the same, I ignored you during that time, and you don't see anyone who seems to owe you eight hundred taels of silver."
"......" Lan Zui decided to change the subject, "She's so calculating, what's the benefit of spreading fire like this?" I'm afraid that Sister Bai won't be able to remember Helan Fu? β
"It's terrible if she calculates so accurately all her life, she is angry and angry."
Lan Zui snorted disapprovingly, if she wants to be angry, she is more angry. Meng Zheng has been eaten and wiped clean, what do you want?
After such a while, Meng Zheng had already returned, holding the rebar steel pipe of the Luoyang shovel handle and the steel drill used by Lan Zui to explore the soil, pushing away Reyimu and Sabir and coming straight to Rong Thirteen's side: "Brother Thirteen, I want to go down, please pull me." β
Meng Zheng's face changed too suddenly, Rong 13 was still a little stunned, and Meng Zheng himself pulled the rope into two traps on his legs, and tied it firmly around his waist, so Rong 13 slowly put the person down.
Meng Zheng had previously explored when he climbed up the stone walls, which were stacked with stones, but with sand in between. The steel drill bit is made very sharp for soil exploration, and it is not difficult to poke open the sand and open the gap. The rebar pipe, which is also made of soil, is thin and tough, and becomes a simple staircase when inserted vertically into the gap.
Many precious medicinal materials in the mountains are born on the cliffs, this method is the mountain people in the mountains for the collection of medicinal materials on the cliff wall, although it is still hanging, it is safer than stepping directly on the bare cliff with nowhere to stay.
Xiri Ahong is heavy and his feet are thick, and his toes will definitely not be able to get stuck in the slight convexity of the stone wall like Lan Zui, so it will be much easier to get a temporary step out to share part of the force, and then pull him up.
Meng Zheng helped Xiri Ahong clean up part of the sand at his feet, and turned out the food and water bladders that Reyimu was about to escape and held in his arms from the water and sand, and then pulled the rope and asked Rong Shisan to pull her up.
By the time Xiri Ahong climbed into the cave with difficulty, it was already an hour later.
The rebar pipes are hollow, and although they bear the weight of Xiri Ahong, the stress points are all stepped on and sunken, which means that this set of threaded pipes is completely wasted.
Lan drunk was a little depressed, they only found a pack of equipment when they came down, and the only one that could steal the hole was this Luoyang shovel.
However, after thinking about it, this underwater cavity has been isolated from the ground for a long time, and the air on the cavity and the platform is slightly dirty but does not hinder breathing, indicating that there must be a place here to exchange air currents with the outside world, and there is no need to make a hole to get out, depending on whether they have the ability to find it.
The narrow stone cave was too reluctant to accommodate so many people, and now that Xiri Ahong was out of trouble, they all went up to the platform. Rong Shisan didn't expect it to take so much time to rescue the four of Reyimu, worried about Rong Jiu's life and death, and insisted on continuing to find an exit without resting. The others understood his feelings, and of course there was no complaint, and they all raised their legs like lead, and walked forward step by step.
It is said to be forward, but in fact, there is no distinction between southeast and northwest in this darkness, where can it be distinguished, front and back, left and right? It's just a random direction. And this time Lan drunk only found that this platform was not as flat as she thought before, and every short distance would encounter rows of cylinders. It's just that the material of the cylinder seems to absorb light, and Lan Zui didn't get closer to take a closer look, so he didn't find it.
The gap between the pillars was so narrow that ordinary people could barely get through, and the size of the West Ri Ahong had to turn sideways to pass. Each row is intertwined with each other, and there are many holes in the ground, and the guide zhì walking on the countertop has to repeatedly circle around in order to avoid the stone pillars and holes.
It took a long time to walk like this, and after walking, even Rong Shisan, who had been in and out of the ancient tomb all the year round and begged for a life underground, became suspicious, wondering if there was any ghost hall in these stone pillars and holes, but they were actually going back and forth just in circles.
It is easy for people to lose their way in the dark, not to mention that there is no straight road to go now. From the beginning of the suspicion, Rong Thirteen continued to leave imprints on the stone pillars, and walked for a while but did not find any traces of the previous imprints, so as to confirm that they did not circle around the stone pillars, it can only be said that this platform is far more spacious than they expected.
Lan Zui calculated, the depth of the fall from the sand pit, the altitude of the water and sand is only slightly lower than the foot of the mountain, this platform is built on top of the water and sand, they should be located in the mountain at this moment. The stone house where they had sheltered from the sandstorm was not far from the city gates, not far from the edge of the mountain. Doesn't this show that the small city built on a ridge is almost completely empty underneath, and that there are some quicksand pits and traps everywhere?
If that's the case - the whole city is essentially a super-large quicksand mechanism, which is a lot of money!
At this time, even if they judge that the direction of departure is wrong, they will not be able to turn back, and they may not be able to go back after this bend, so they can only continue to walk hard.
No one spoke, and everyone's gasps grew thicker and thicker. Nearly five hours have passed from the sandstorm stopping to exploring the city on the ground, to rescuing Xiri Ahong and walking on the platform. Most of the five hours were struggling on the edge of life and death, all of which were physical activities, and even the iron King Kong couldn't stand it. Rong 13 saw that everyone couldn't hold it anymore, so he sighed secretly and gestured for everyone to rest in place.
As soon as everyone saw this gesture, they immediately felt like they had been pulled out of their leg bones, and they didn't care whether the ground was clean or dirty, and they went down. A few women were more particular, but they just sat down, and the four of Reyimu lay directly on the ground regardless of 3721, and snored loudly in less than three seconds. Lan Zui leaned on Jun Yihuang and beat his calves, and shook his head in disgust when he heard the thunderous snoring of Reyimu and the others, while Bai Suhe divided the food and water into several portions and distributed them to the few people who were still awake.
Lan Zui doesn't care if this stinky or not, his stomach is rumbling with hunger. After a few mouthfuls of dried meat, I drank water and rested for a while before I felt like I was coming back to life. With a little spirit, Lan Zui began to ponder, and said to Rong Thirteen: "Thirteenth brother, it's not a matter to go on like this." The city above is not small, we walked for half a day in the morning and didn't get to the end, if this platform is really as big as the above, how long does it take to go around? β
"I can't do anything without a compass, I haven't marked most of the way ahead, and it's too late to go back now. Fortunately, there is no danger and weirdness on this platform, and it seems that you can only keep walking, this is in the mountains, and there is always an end to it. β
"What if it's still not going to come out at the end? This ancient city is strangely built, and the exit may not necessarily be on the edge of the city. β
Rong Thirteen was speechless. He had thought about it, but he couldn't say it. After walking aimlessly in the dark for so long, the morale of the team was already very low, and as soon as these words came out, the four of Reyimu had to collapse.
If they can't find an exit at the edge of the city, and the place is so big that the batteries, food, and water are not enough to cover every inch of it, then they will have to find a way to break through a quicksand trap and climb up. This road is difficult and dangerous, so it is a good idea, and it is best not to use it until you are forced to do so.
Lan Zui held his head and pondered, Bai Suhe was a layman when he went to the ground as soon as he went underground, so he could only wait for the result silently. In order to make Lan drunk more comfortable, Jun Yihuang took the upper half of the person's body to his lap and took most of her weight. Lan drunk and was comfortable, and he didn't care about getting dirty, half leaning on Jun Yihuang, his hands dragging on the ground, squinting his eyes and thoughts.
The fingers slid around on the ground unconsciously, this was a habitual action when Lan Zui thought about things, and after touching it for a while, he touched a small pit that went down,
Lan Zui picked his nails twice, and felt that the touch of this small pit was wrong, not like a depression in the material of the mountain stone itself, but as if it was caused by some weighty sharp weapon.
