Chapter 405: Desperate Survival
Three small boats sailed into the river, and there was nothing out of the ordinary. However, the smoke and fire that permeated the air here rose more and more. Chen Fusheng accidentally inhaled a few points for a while, then bowed down and coughed, the old disease that had been suppressed for a long time before was like a trapped beast in a cage into the mountains and forests, and it was bound to make a comeback, and the disaster was stormy.
Mrs. Allure did not ridicule this, but reminded her loudly, "If Chen Gongzi can endure it for a while, he will endure it for a while." The things in the river haven't smelled alive for a long time, and it's inevitable that they will be a little excited. As if to confirm what Mrs. Allure said, the river suddenly had turbulent waves, and under the seemingly calm river, there was a hidden danger that could be fatal.
Chen Fusheng hurriedly took out a wooden box from his sleeve, and after opening it, the contents of the box emitted a fishy and unpleasant smell. Aunt Han was sitting on the bow of the boat, and when she saw this thing, she ran over quickly, and the action was so big and the pace was so urgent that everyone was sweating.
Chen Fusheng hurriedly spread his feet to stabilize the hull of the boat, looked up at Aunt Han with a wry smile, but the wooden box in his hand was never closed, as if he had made up his mind. The old yellow man on the other boat, looking from afar, frowned, "Fusheng, do you really want to come this far?" ”
Chen Fusheng turned his head and said with a wry smile, "If it weren't for the fact that time was running out, how could the kid dare to squander it like this." If you don't take this medicine, I'm afraid you won't survive for three days and will die. ”
Yi Nanxing, who was originally sitting in the stern of the boat where Mrs. Allure was sitting with his head down, suddenly got up and looked at Chen Fusheng. He raised his hand several times and put it down, as if he had something to say but couldn't say it. Chen Fusheng will take out an elixir, carefully put the wooden box in his sleeve, and smile at Aunt Han and Yi Nanxing, "Two great graces, Fusheng is unforgettable. ”
After all, Mrs. Allure was a little helpless, and said an opportunity that made everyone's hearts happy, "Chen Gongzi's old illness has not yet reached the point of taking the 'three-day death pill'. ”
Yi Nanxing turned around when he heard this, and suddenly held Mrs. Allure's hand, Xu was a little excited, and his face flushed with a long-lost flush. Mrs. Allure frowned slightly, but Yi Nanxing did not mean to let go, and looked at her directly, waiting for this trick of living to death.
Mrs. Allure was stunned, but she still pulled her hand back suddenly, and said angrily, "My son doesn't care, but I care about an outsider." ”
Yi Nanxing laughed dryly twice, maybe he hadn't laughed for too long, and after the muscles on his face twitched unnaturally a few times, he stiffened into a kind of face that seemed to laugh and cry, which made people cry and laugh. Standing at the stern of the boat supporting the oars shop Xiao Er, his face was embarrassed, and he persuaded loudly: "A-Niang, don't be angry, I've been here for so many years, and it's not too late." ”
Although Mrs. Allure is hard-hearted, she still can't resist the child's sentence after all, and she is already broken. Suddenly he collapsed on the side of the ship, hid his face and wept.
At this moment, the atmosphere was a little awkward, but what was surprising was that the lake under the boat slowly returned to calm, as if it was just a wave rolled up by the wind into the belly of the mountain. The shopkeeper's expression was solemn, looking at the darkness in front of him, and the movements in his hands unconsciously sped up a little.
On Gu Xing's side, the old yellow head was pressed on the bow of the boat, the second girl was in the middle, and Gu Xing took advantage of the oars to row in a decent manner. Seeing that the shopkeeper had increased his movements, he beckoned to Chen Fusheng, intending to remind. Wei Wuji was still young, but he had a delicate mind, and Gu Xing didn't speak, so he also learned.
Mrs. Allure hid her face and wept, and peeked at Yi Nanxing from time to time, seeing that he wanted to step forward to comfort him several times, but he hesitated, so she grabbed his hand, put it on her cheek, and said coquettishly: "Wrongdoer!" ”
Aunt Han heard that Mrs. Allure was deliberately provocative, and turned her head away and didn't want to pay more attention. Chen Fusheng took the pill and looked at it again and again, not knowing whether to eat it or not.
Xu felt that the goal had been achieved, Mrs. Allure got up with the help of her strength, raised her hand to cut her hair, and then said solemnly: "Gongzi Chen, put away the pill first, and then take this slow medicine." As he spoke, he took out a milky white vial from his sleeve and threw it to Chen Fusheng.
Chen Fusheng raised his hand to take it, and then hugged his fists and said, "Thank you Mrs. Allure for saving her life." ”
Aunt Han was not angry, got up and said in a strange manner: "I don't know how poisonous this medicine is, the head of the family is still careful." As he spoke, he stared at Mrs. Allure viciously, and there seemed to be a fire bursting out of her eyes.
Mrs. Allure was not annoyed, she raised her hand and stroked her hair, smiling like a flower. One hand firmly grasped Yi Nanxing, refusing to let go for a moment.
In this dark river, although a little moonlight seeps in, but it is not clear, a few people only hang a lantern on the bow of the boat, can only illuminate a few feet in front of the place, the strange rocks on both sides are craggy but not real, only feel a seeping yin wind continue to pour into the sleeves and legs, from time to time shivering.
At this time, it is clearly the hot season, and the fashion of the beginning of autumn has some time. But in this dark river, it is naturally isolated from the heat wave of the outside world, and only locks in the cold, which makes everyone extremely uncomfortable. The old yellow head saw that the second girl was shivering a little from the cold, and hurriedly took off the coat that was a little shabby, but still able to keep out the cold, and wrapped it around the second girl. He asked a little complainingly, "I said Mrs. Allure, how far is this from the exit?" ”
Mrs. Allure seemed to have a bad anger in her chest, and her mood was much better, and she chuckled when she heard this, "I haven't left for many years, and I don't know very well, but I haven't drawn out a twelve-tenth, and it's still very early." ”
The old yellow head was dumbfounded when he heard this, and he knew that if he turned his face at this time, he was afraid that it would not be beneficial to both parties. If this lady of Allure plays some tricks, then his old bones will be fed to the king.
Aunt Han still felt bored after all, and slowly sat down again. It's just that there is a little more sadness in his eyes, and it is difficult to hide his sadness. Chen Fusheng didn't hear Mrs. Allure's explanation, but unscrewed the cork and poured it down, coughing violently a few times before relieving himself. Although he tried his best to restrain himself, he still inhaled a few breaths of cold air, and there was a tingling pain in his chest.
Mrs. Allure didn't expect that Chen Fusheng would be so bold. Unconsciously clapped his hands and praised: "It is worthy of being the head of the family for Sunset Peak, and it is really heroic." This slow-down medicine has no cure, but it can delay the onset of your old disease, which is enough for you to survive to the Valley of the Crow. ”
Chen Fusheng was shocked when he heard this, "How did Mrs. Allure know?" After speaking, he immediately shut up, knowing that he was speechless, and no longer explained, just silently waiting for Mrs. Allure to tell the truth.
Mrs. Allure didn't mean to hide it, she stroked the back of Yi Nanxing's hand with two fingers, pulled the corners of her mouth and said with a smile: "I wanted to intercept and kill on the road that you must pass, but I didn't expect another result by mistake." I didn't expect Li Cunjin to have other ideas before he fell into this step. ”
The old yellow head interjected at an inopportune time: "Then I have to thank Mrs. Allure for not killing?" I wanted to make a joke, but I didn't expect the air to suddenly fall silent, but I was a little embarrassed.
The three boats were moving away, and suddenly the voices of two people were heard from behind, "I've found them, hurry, stop them." The other person was so angry that he stomped his feet, "It's up to the two of us, how to intercept these people, or quickly turn back and report." ”
Just as the two of them were about to turn around, the spreading fire had already burned here, and the two of them were suddenly like ants on a hot pot, scurrying around, not knowing what to do.
Mrs. Allure did not seem to have expected this day, or that she was too conceited to reach this step in the field, so she only saved three small boats to be in order. Unexpectedly, it was these three boats that saved the lives of several people, but these two soldiers arrived here, but they had no way to advance or retreat, so they could only sit and wait for death.
When people reach a desperate situation, they will unleash infinite potential. One of them said in a trembling voice; "Why don't you swim out?"
The other man caught a glimpse of the remaining fish baskets, sniffed the fishy smell in the baskets, and was dizzy for a while, but he didn't hear clearly. At this time, the fire had spread to the secret passage, and the two had no more time to hesitate.
The proposer didn't care so much, and rushed into the dark river first. Unexpectedly, the river water was cold and biting, and I couldn't help but shiver. But driven by the desire to survive, he can only swim forward.
The other man was about to enter the water, but by the moonlight he saw what seemed to be movement in the water. He rubbed his eyes vigorously, and then looked intently, only to see a silver-white wave, rushing towards the swimming soldiers. The soldier naturally sensed the danger imminent, but it was too late to turn around. He looked up and saw a slight bulge on the rock wall on the right, and he rowed towards it.
When he climbed the rock face with his hands, he was still submerged in the water from the waist down. Before the soldiers on the shore could roar, they saw the water splash suddenly, and a bloody mouth came from the bottom up, biting the waist of the soldier who was climbing hard. There was only a crisp click, and the soldier still clung to the rock wall with both hands and refused to relax, but the lower half of his body was gone, leaving only the tattered armor, wrapped in rotten flesh, and constantly dripping blood.
The soldiers on the shore were so frightened that they sat down on the ground. By the time he got up again, the soldier who had climbed the rock wall was gone. And this scene was also clearly seen by everyone on the three small boats, all gasping and chilling.
The old yellow head was a little speechless for a while, and asked hesitantly, "Mrs. Allure, what is this?" So fierce? ”
Mrs. Allure's face sank like water, and by the dim light of the miserable white lantern, she felt that there were a few more wisps of vicissitudes of time on her face, which did not have too many fine lines. After a while, Mrs. Allure suddenly looked back, looked at everyone and said, "This thing is a sawtooth salmon, I don't know why it has grown to such a size, it was originally to defend against foreign enemies, but at this time, it is a problem for me." ”
"Is there a way to crack it?" Chen Fusheng was no longer depressed in his chest at this time, and after taking a few breaths, he asked out loud.
"Remember the baskets I asked you to take? That's to deal with this unforeseen need. Originally, it was just a few baskets to get through safely, but at this moment, it seems that it will take a lot of effort to get through. After Mrs. Allure finished speaking, she sat indifferently on the edge of the boat, like a mourner.
The old yellow head only understood at this time, looked at the silver white that appeared from time to time not far away, and said coldly: "It seems that it has been a long time since I have been exposed to the smell of meat, so I am so active." ”
The oars in the shopkeeper shook faster and faster, and his mood became more and more anxious. Others don't know, but he knows that the "monsters" who have been fed and raised by their own hands for many years, I don't know how many heroes and heroes they have swallowed, how can ordinary fish and turtles in the river be able to speak?
