Chapter 35: The Underground Graveyard
Zhang Yufu squatted down, carefully cleaned up the blood stains and footprints on the yellow sand, and then jumped up and landed beside Longbow and Ruan Ning.
At the moment when Zhang Yufu squatted down, the yellow sand that blocked the view of the pursuers lost its effect, and the pursuers who had pacified the horses galloped again.
As the sound of horses' hooves got closer and closer, the expressions of the three people hiding in the low-lying places on the side of the road became more and more nervous.
"Wow......"
"Wow......"
"Wow......"
Almost every sound of horses' hooves seemed to step on the tip of their hearts.
"Knock ......"
"Knock ......"
"Knock ......"
In the ears of the three people who held their breath, there was the sound of a louder and louder heartbeat. The sweat on his face continued to roll down, condensed from his forehead, slid down his eyebrow bone, and slid into his eye sockets.
The discomfort in their eyes came, but the three of them didn't seem to notice it, and they didn't even blink their eyes.
"! It's this trick again! A rough sound came from a short distance above the heads of the three of them, and it directly raised their hearts to their throats.
"His grandmother's, how many thunder bombs did these three people carry on them!" Another man's voice came, spitting out his mouth as he spoke.
"Keep chasing, Lao Tzu won't believe it, and the thunder bombs on their bodies won't be used up! When Lao Tzu catches up with them, he has to press them into the yellow sand and let them taste it! ”
"Boss, or are you chasing in the direction of Broken Soul Mountain?"
"That Ruan Ning was seriously injured, and the longbow was no better, and there was only one silver dragon left, which was a full beard and full tail. In addition to returning to Qingfeng Village in Broken Soul Mountain, where else can they escape! I didn't see the horseshoe prints on the ground, which was going in that direction! ”
"Qingfeng Village? Then we have to speed up, but the lord has ordered, we must not let them live to Qingfeng Village......"
"Chasing ......"
After some grumbling and complaining, the sound of horses' hooves sounded again, in the direction of Broken Soul Mountain, and after a while, it was far away.
It wasn't until the sound of the horse's hooves was so faint that it was almost inaudible that Zhang Yufu cautiously poked his head out. Looking at the road with only horseshoe prints, the breath that had been supporting him dissipated instantly, and the whole person suddenly collapsed to the ground.
"Gone?" Ruan Ning looked at the obviously relieved look on Zhang Yufu's face and asked softly.
Zhang Yufu collapsed to the ground and said with a little luck, "Let's go!" ”
Thinking of Fang Cai's thrill, Longbow looked at Zhang Yu's servant and asked with some surprise, "How do you know that those people won't dismount and search?" ”
Zhang Yufu shook his head, spit out the yellow sand that he accidentally inhaled in his mouth, and said, "How can I know, it's just a gamble!" ”
Hearing this, Ruan Ning and Longbow couldn't help but be stunned. Then they looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
After resting for about a quarter of an hour, Zhang Yufu took a deep breath, stood up, and said, "This place is not a place to stay for a long time, those people chased after them and found that there was no one on horseback, they would definitely turn back, we have to leave as soon as possible." ”
Ruan Ning nodded, and with the support of Zhang Yu's servant and longbow, he walked back onto the main road.
Looking at the miserable mountain walls that were blown up by thunder bombs around him, Ruan Ning frowned and said, "This place, I'm afraid it's not easy to hide." ”
Bombed by them with thunder bombs, there is almost no place to hide in this vicinity, if those who intercept and kill find out that something is wrong and kill back, just the three of them, let alone can't beat them, even if they escape, there is not much chance.
Zhang Yufu shook his head and said, "Who said we were going to hide?" ”
"What do you mean?" Ruan Ning looked at Zhang Yufu with puzzled eyes, and asked what the longbow on the side also wanted to ask.
Zhang Yufu raised his eyes to look at a mess of stones in front of him, the corners of his mouth overflowed with a satisfied arc, and said, "We're lucky, I happened to be here before." ”
Seeing that Ruan Ning and Longbow were still a little puzzled, Zhang Yufu took off the wine bag hanging from his waist, drank the little spirit left, and let out a long breath before saying, "That place is an underground cemetery. ”
As soon as the words "underground cemetery" came out, Ruan Ning and Longbow both had a bit of surprise.
Seeing that the two of them instantly understood what they meant, Zhang Yufu smiled and said, "Let's go, we don't have much time, we have to arrange the layout in advance." Otherwise, this gift will not be given. ”
Then, the three of them arrived at the place full of rocks pointed out by Zhang Yufu as fast as possible, looked around, and soon found an entrance hidden under the troubled times.
Zhang Yu's servant carried Ruan Ning into the entrance, and after hiding her, he poked his head out again, and said to the longbow guarding the side of the rubble, "Next, it's up to you!" ”
Longbow nodded, and then leaned against a rocky rock as if nothing happened. He placed a man-tall bow and arrows beside him, and slowly sorted out the few arrows that were left.
After a while, the sound of horses' hooves gradually sounded.
Longbow looked up and saw the yellow sand flying all over the sky, and a touch of coldness crossed his eyes.
After ten counts of silence in his heart, he stood up, clenched the bow and arrow in his hand, drew the bow and pulled the string, and an arrow still stained with blood flew out with a "swish".
"Poof" "Knock"
The sound of an arrow piercing through the flesh was followed by the sound of a man unwilling to fall off his horse.
"Over there, they're over there, chase me!" After a brief moment of panic, the pursuers discovered Longbow's hiding place and immediately pursued him.
The longbow unhurriedly changed its position in the pile of rubble, turning around from time to time, and using the bow and arrow in his hand to harvest the life of a pursuer.
"! Give me separate chases! At the sound of the order, nearly a hundred pursuers immediately dispersed, surrounding the middle from different directions of the pile of rocks.
Longbow looked at the last arrow in his hand, narrowed his eyes, and turned towards the entrance to the underground graveyard.
"Found it, he's here!" A shout of surprise was heard, and the pursuers scattered in the underground graveyard immediately gathered around.
But when all the pursuers gathered together, they didn't even see the shadow of the longbow, and for a while, everyone's eyes looked at the little chaser who reported the news with dissatisfaction.
The little chaser frowned, his eyes full of puzzlement, "I just saw that longbow, he is here, I can't be mistaken." ”
Seeing that the little man was anxious and didn't look like he was lying, a rough man frowned and said in a deep voice, "Search! There are so many of us around, these people in Qingfeng Village can't grow wings and fly! ”
At the sound of an order, nearly 100 pursuers immediately held the weapons in their hands and scattered to search.
But in just half an hour, at the entrance of the underground cemetery, a man shouted excitedly, "There is a tunnel here, they must be hiding inside!" ”
Hearing this, nearly 100 pursuers surrounded him again.
After looking at the entrance for a long time, the rough man at the head raised his hand and ordered ten people, and commanded in a deep voice, "You few, go down and have a look." ”
The ten people looked at each other, and their eyes couldn't help but hesitate. But when they thought about the reward they could get for killing Ruan Ning and the others, they mustered up their courage again. Taking a deep breath, the ten men followed each other towards the entrance of the underground graveyard.
Jumping through the entrance, there is a low-lying area about two people high. In the low-lying area, it was so dark that I could barely see my fingers clearly. I could only faintly see some stalagmites standing upside down in a mess through the light at the entrance.
"Hiss......" A man was hit on the head by the tip of a stalagmite hanging from above, and the other couldn't help but exclaim.
"What's going on?" When the other nine people heard the movement, they immediately turned around and aimed the weapons in their hands at the direction from which the sound came.
"It's okay, it's okay, I accidentally knocked it. Brothers, be careful, it's too dark here, and there are rocks everywhere......" said the man who was surrounded with some embarrassment, holding his hand over the back of his head.
Seeing this, the others breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and continued to search cautiously ahead. No one knew that the man who was knocked by the stalagmite was unknowingly changed people under their noses!
"What the hell is this place, why do I think it's weirder than that wind-eroded forest......" Someone looked at the uneven and winding road in front of him, and couldn't help but mutter.
"Shhh...... How do I think this place is eerie. ”
"Otherwise, let's go back first, and let the leader send more people down...... Hey, what about them? ”
A man was talking, turned to look, but saw that the original team of ten people was silently only three people left.
"It's not good, get out of here!" found that something was wrong with the man, and immediately issued a warning.
But at this moment, a sound of breaking the sky came, and a man who turned around and was about to retreat, his eyes were round, and he fell to the ground unwillingly.
In the center of his forehead, a piece of gravel was embedded in it. Blood spilled from around the rubble, and in the darkness, it looked like a terrible ghost asking for his life, and it was terrifying.
Seeing this scene, the other two people's faces changed greatly, they clenched the weapons in their hands, and shouted, "Who, who is pretending to be a ghost!" ”
Almost as soon as the two of them landed, a figure suddenly appeared hanging upside down from above their heads.
Before the two of them could react, the upside-down man raised his hand and waved, and the two panicked heads fell to the ground with a "bang".
"Don't say it, you're dressed in red, at first glance, you really look like a female ghost." Not far away, behind a messy stone, Zhang Yufu walked out holding a silver spear dripping with blood, looked at Ruan Ning who was hanging upside down, and couldn't help but quip.
Ruan Ning's legs hooked a stalagmite and let go, one rolled over and fell to the ground, because of the impact of the injuries on his body, he did not stand firm when he landed, and almost fell to the ground.
Zhang Yufu stepped forward and took Ruan Ning a hand, and said with some concern, "If you are injured, don't be reckless." ”
Ruan Ning looked at the three corpses under his feet, pursed his lips, and said, "You can't just watch them escape and report the news." ”
Looking around, she whispered, "Where's the longbow?" ”
The moment the words landed, the longbow came out of the shadows, and there was an extra scimitar in his hand that he had picked up from somewhere, and it was still dripping with blood.
