Chapter 50: Brotherly Love
Suddenly, the cave shook. Ye Yi ran in front, his feet were empty, and before he could scream, his body had already fallen down!
"Be careful!" Tianlan reached out and grabbed his arm at the last moment.
Ye Yi's feet were suspended in the air, and he accidentally fell into the cracks in the ground. He looked up and saw Tianlan's face. He has been practicing martial arts all year round, and his weight is slightly heavier than that of a normal person, which is nothing, the key is that he is also carrying a Nangong Kui and an extremely heavy iron sword, which makes his whole person like a falling stone. In a hurry, Tianlan didn't have time to use the wind control technique, and he actually grabbed him with the strength of his physical body, which was really a miracle.
"Ahh Nangong Kui was unharmed because he grabbed him to death. Ye Yi couldn't help but look down, the crack in the ground was bottomless, and the night pearl didn't know where it fell, on the contrary, several rotting corpses crawled up with grinning teeth.
When he looked down, he was terrified. Anyone who climbs a cliff knows that a little bit of climbing doesn't feel high. When they reached the clouds and mist, and when they looked down, most of them were too frightened to climb any further! At this time, they must not look down, otherwise they will lose their courage.
"Don't worry about it! Don't look down! Come up!!" Tianlan shouted, finally waking him up. He retracted his gaze, used his hands and feet together, and finally came up with the help of Tianlan and Xiaotang.
"Whew...... Call...... It's terrible!" Ye Yi palpitated.
Nangong Kui was so frightened that he couldn't even speak.
Tianlan shook his arm, his face returned to a cold color, and said, "Let's go, before they surround them." ”
After this small accident, the carrion corpses that were far behind were already approaching, and the carrion corpses who were added in the middle blocked the retreat road tightly. This time, I really have to move forward.
Xiaotang followed Tianlan closely and never left. This terrible scene was no less terrifying to her than the end of the world, and she was no less afraid than anyone else. But she pursed her lips tightly and didn't say a word, as long as she followed the person in front of her, the sense of dependence in her heart would not disappear, and she would dare to break into no matter how terrifying the place was!
Soon, the three came to a fork in the road. On the left and on the right, Tianlan was silent, for there were chaotic footsteps, roars, and crackling bones everywhere, and it was clear that the road ahead was crowded with rotting corpses.
"What to do?" the others looked at him, waiting for him to make an idea. Obviously, he has been more or less trusted by others. In desperation, they had no choice but to believe in the path he chose.
At this time, a stone next to them suddenly moved, and the four of them were like facing a great enemy, but they heard a familiar voice: "Don't panic! It's me!"
"Father——!" Nangong Kui exclaimed in surprise.
"Captain Nangong!" Ye Yi also exclaimed in surprise, there was nothing more surprising than the reinforcements that suddenly appeared in the predicament.
"Let's talk about it first!" Nangong Mingjing pushed away a boulder at the entrance of the cave, and it turned out that there was a hole under this stone wall!
The four mermaids rushed in, Nangong Mingjing sealed the entrance to the cave, took out a packet of medicinal powder, sprinkled it around carefully, and explained: "This is the deodorization powder, we found that those carrion corpses rely on the smell and sound to track the living. Well, everyone, be quiet, they won't find out, rest assured!"
With the faint light of the Night Pearl, Tianlan found that there were more than ten people in the cave. This hole is a dead hole, just such a space, there is no way to go deeper. He keenly noticed that most of the people here were wounded, and there were a few fewer people than they had originally scheduled to enter, and he didn't know if they didn't come or ......
Nangong Mingjing saw that the few of them were fine, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said slightly angrily: "Why did you come in? Don't you know the danger? What if there is a case? And you Xiaokui! Didn't I tell you to stay outside?" He had to keep his voice low as he spoke, so as not to come out of the cave.
Nangong Kui looked extremely aggrieved, lowered his head and was trained, not daring to echo.
Ye Yi scratched his head and said, "Head Nangong, don't be angry, don't we want to help you! Seeing that you haven't come out for a long time, the people outside are starting to get anxious. ”
Nangong Mingjing's face softened slightly, his tone did not change, and said, "I gave them a death order, so naturally they didn't dare to break in casually." It's the three of you, it's nothing to do with you!" he felt sorry for himself, and reprimanded the three children in the tone of a strict father. He is an upright person, and even a little dead-eyed, the three of Tianlan are different from Nangong Kui, they are not the people of the Golden Lion, and it is unreasonable to drag them into the water for this task.
Ye Yi smiled and said, "Head Nangong, you don't have to be so depressed! You see that we are all fine, we are here anyway, what else can we do?" Nangong Kui nodded again and again when he heard this.
His words were a bit of a scoundrel, and Nangong Mingjing shook his head and smiled bitterly when he heard it.
Tianlan asked Nangong Mingjing, "What did you encounter when you came in, and how did you hide here?"
Nangong Mingjing said: "After we came in, we encountered the siege of rotting corpses, and we fought all the way and fled to this fork in the road. The cave is dark, this hole is not sealed, it looks like three forks, we have no choice, we chose the rightmost road, all the way to the deepest part of the way to find that it is a dead end, had to return to the fork. Five or six brothers have been killed by carrion in the course of the exchanges, and the rest of us are exhausted. At this time, Ming Qing's deodorant powder spilled out, and as a result, the rotting corpses all left as if they had lost their target, and continued to stay in the fork in the road. We hid in this leftmost fork in the road, not wanting to be dead again, so we simply stopped here to regain our energy. ”
Nangong Mingqing walked over at this time, sat down next to the eldest brother, and said, "Fortunately, we ran into you." Otherwise, wouldn't it be terrible if you walked into the right road again——!!"
He was injured during this time, his left arm was hastily bandaged with his clothes, and his face twitched with pain as he spoke.
"Second uncle, are you injured?!" Nangong Kui exclaimed in surprise.
Nangong Mingjing felt sorry for his younger brother and said, "You don't move much! The wound on your left arm is very deep...... Alas, if it weren't for saving me......" He was very annoyed, he was attacked by a carrion corpse just now, he was the first to bear the brunt, if it weren't for Nangong Mingqing desperately protecting him, he was afraid that he would die here.
Nangong Mingqing said with a straight face: "Big brother, what did you say? Your life is much more important than one of my arms! Even if this arm is abolished, I will not regret it!"
"You...... I'm your eldest brother, I should protect you!" Nangong Mingjing choked up with tears in his eyes.
Nangong Mingqing's eyes were also a little moist, and she said, "Big brother, you have protected me for decades. If I don't have you in the future, who will continue to protect me...... And Xiao Kui, brothers......"
In just a few words, it contains the deep friendship of their brothers for decades. Brothers, blood is thicker than water, this family affection is irreplaceable, in a few years, decades, the same scene appears, they will still sacrifice their lives for each other!
Nangong Kui leaned on Nangong Mingqing's lap and cried: "Second uncle, father, don't any of you die, okay?"
Nangong Mingjing and Nangong Mingqing glanced at each other, and laughed out loud at the same time.
Ye Yi sighed with emotion: "They are really brothers." Tianlan, don't you say?"
Tianlan looked at the two brothers silently, and unconsciously remembered his brother. Didn't his brother love him with the same heart......
"If it were me, I would ...... too"
