Chapter 103 Underground Journey (Part II)
Jian Liang said: "Fortunately, the three of us have a certain amount of cultivation and can adapt, if you change to an ordinary person, you will not be starved to death, but you will also be confused and unusual, this underground is strange, and it hurts people for a long time." Then the three men took their torches and searched for the exit.
I found several connected caves, some extending upwards and some extending downwards, communicating vertically and horizontally, and I don't know where to go. Jian Liang said: "The higher the cave, the closer it is to the ground, we should follow such a cave." ”
Fang Guochuan said: "It makes sense, there shouldn't be only one exit for such a large underground cave." The three of them searched all the way, who knew that the cave was intertwined and complex, like a labyrinth, the three of them went around and found that they had returned to the same place, obviously choosing a high-lying cave to go, and they were still turning around in place invisibly.
Jian Liang used the stump of the burned torch to mark the stone wall, and when he saw the mark, he knew that he had walked and turned back to find his way. Fang Guolian, Jian Liang, and Luo Kun were in this cave, exploring the exit in all directions, sleeping when they were tired, waking up and leaving, I don't know how many days have passed in this underground, those tsampa and water, although the three of them try to save money, they only eat some when they are hungry, but they are gradually exhausted, and the three of them feel that they have been trapped in this underground for a long time, and it is more difficult, and the three of them encourage each other and comfort each other, and still have the confidence and hope to get out of this underground cave. Later, the three of them found several underground springs in the cave, tried it, it was sweet and light, and it was easy to solve the urgency of cutting off the water.
Fang Guolian, Jian Liang, and Luo Kun chose to go to the cave on high ground, and the spare torches gradually burned out, and it was impossible to go back to the deep cave to get it, and the most terrible darkness was to cover the light of the torches.
At this time, I gradually felt that the temperature in the cave was a little different from before, and it became colder, and the smoke of the torches was sucked up by the wind. Luo Kun was pleasantly surprised: "There is no exit, and there are vents." Fang Guolian and Jian Liang were each in good spirits, and they walked upwards quickly, and when they reached the top and end of this cave, a ray of light came in from the crack in the rock, which was extremely dazzling.
Fang Guolian, Jian Liang, and Luo Kun cheered in unison, forgetting all their fatigue for the time being, and ran to the crack in the rock, feeling that this faint light was so kind and soft, and the three of them were very happy as if they hadn't seen the sun for hundreds of years.
Luo Kun hurriedly used the "Zhenru" sword to poke the crack in the rock a little bigger, a strong sunlight directly came in, and the cave was immediately full of brilliance, the three of them felt very dazzling, and they hurriedly avoided it, and it took a while to get used to it, and they felt that the sunlight was too strong, and the dizziness almost hurt their eyes. People who have been in the dark for a long time are most afraid of seeing strong light immediately, and there is a risk of blindness, but because the light of the torch has not been broken, Fang Guolian, Jian Liang, and Luo Kun can adapt to some sunlight, otherwise they will be blinded.
At this time, Luo Kun used the "Zhenru" sword to continuously expand the vent, and the gravel and dirt fell one after another, and a fresh and cool air poured into the hole, which was particularly comfortable to suck. When the entrance of the cave could accommodate one person in and out, Luo Kun climbed out first, and then pulled Fang Guolian and Jian Liang out with his hand. Finally saw the light of day again, and the three of them were very excited, speechless with excitement, and shook hands to congratulate each other.
Fang Guolian, Jian Liang, and Luo Kun climbed out of the hole, and when they got up to look, they were already on a high mountain. The blue sky was filled with white clouds, and it seemed so far away. At the junction of heaven and earth, there is the outline of Tanggula Mountain, the majestic posture of the snow-capped mountain. The three of them miraculously walked out of the ground hundreds of miles away.
The three of them didn't know where they were at this time, and looked around blankly. Beneath the mountains is a flat grassland, dotted with lakes, rivers and flocks of sheep, and a dozen shepherds' tents. Several teenagers galloped on horseback, chasing and frolicking. Looking at this strange place, the three of them were speechless in shock for a while.
At this moment, I heard a loud noise behind me, and several large stones collapsed from the entrance of the cave. It turned out that when Luo Kun expanded the entrance of the cave, he shook the rock, which was not strong, and sealed the exit. The three of them looked at each other, knowing that if they came out late, they would be buried in the cave, and they were all shocked into a cold sweat.
The three of them helped each other down the mountain. When they reached the foot of the mountain, several shepherds rode over, and they were amazed to see that the three men were ragged and unkempt, and did not look like wild men coming down from the mountain. The three of them were extremely weak at this time, and before they could talk, Jian Liang and Fang Guochuan had already fainted to the ground. Luo Kun arched his hand towards the herdsmen, showing that he wanted to ask for help, and he sat on the ground and had no strength to speak. The shepherds were shocked and rushed back to their tents.
Fang Guolian, Jian Liang, and Luo Kun didn't know at this time that since they entered the underground cave of Ganlan Temple in the Great Snow Peak of Kunlun Mountain, they lost their direction on the ground sea because they accidentally dropped the pointing needle at the water's edge of Diyuan Island, and they went all the way to the underground for more than a month. For a month, the three of them survived on food that lasted only five days, because in the darkness of the underground there was no distinction between day and night, and there was no concept of the length of time. What's more, with their strong will and encouragement to each other, the three of them were able to survive at the limit of this dangerous situation, which can be described as a miracle.
Let's say that the kind-hearted shepherds saved the three of them, and Fang Guolian and Jian Liang needed some time to recuperate before they could recover their strength due to their extremely weak bodies. Only Luo Kun was fine, and he was fine after resting for two days, so he took care of Fang Guolian and Jian Liang, and waited for the two of them to recover. When the herdsman asked the direction of this place, they couldn't help but surprise the three of them, this place is only a few dozen miles away from the Tuotuo River, and it is already 500 miles away from the Ganlan Temple of the Great Snow Peak of the Kunlun Mountain. I believe that the sea is vast and boundless, and it is like the ocean.
After a rough calculation of the time, it was more than a month underground, which made the three of them stunned. In addition to being surprised, they were all glad that they had walked around the underworld. If they couldn't find an exit after spending some more time underground, the three of them would starve to death and be trapped in the depths of the earth. There was no way back to Ganlan Monastery, and the Nagyatso Lama must have thought that the three of them had suffered on the ground and sea, and there was no way to inform him. The horses and other items that were previously stored in the Tibetans at the foot of the Daxuefeng Mountain were simply gone. Just wait for Fang Guohuan and Jian Liang to recover their strength before finding a way to return to Lhasa City.
The shepherds were very enthusiastic about the three of them, and brought milk tea, mutton and other food every day. Fang Guolian and Jian Liang's physical strength gradually recovered, and their previously pale faces had grown bloody. Luo Kun was very happy to see this, and in addition to gratitude, he distributed the jewels he had brought with him to the shepherds to thank them for their kindness and hospitality, leaving only two or three pieces for the return journey.
After more than half a month, Fang Guolian and Jian Liang recovered. After discussing with Luo Kun, the three of them decided to rest here for a few more days. Prepare your horses and everything you need for the road before heading back to Lhasa. Because Luo Kun had given some jewelry to the herdsmen, the herdsmen were very grateful and promised to give three horses when the three of them left, and Luo Kun thanked himself.
On this day, Fang Guolian, Jian Liang, and Luo Kun were talking in the tent, discussing the matter of returning to Lhasa City tomorrow. Suddenly, I heard a noise of people outside, as if something had happened. When the three of them came out to see, they saw that the shepherds were gathering with swords, bows, and other weapons, and everyone was angry, and they had the intention of fighting, and something had happened.
Luo Kun hurriedly stepped forward to ask, and a herdsman told him that two robbers had come out of nowhere, killed and injured several herdsmen and grabbed some food and went to the mountain, and the herdsmen were preparing to go to the mountain to search for and capture the two robbers, in order to avenge several dead and wounded companions. After hearing this, Luo Kun and Jian Liang immediately came to the spirit, the shepherds should not stand idly by and watch something, and they should go to help the shepherds. Seeing this, Fang Guochuan also wanted to follow. Luo Kun and Jian Liang didn't take the two robbers seriously, and when they saw Fang Guolian coming with them, they didn't stop them, so they let him go with them to see the fun. When the shepherds saw the three of them come to help, they were very grateful, admired their courage, and also increased their sense of strength.
They went all the way up the mountain to find them, but they did not see any trace of the two robbers. When I got to the snow at the top of the mountain, I saw two people's footprints stretching ahead, apparently just walking. "Here it is!" The shepherds were angry and searched for them along the trails.
Skirting a snowy slope, I saw two people sitting in the snow in front of me, devouring food, apparently hungry for a long time. Hearing the sound of someone coming, the two people were a little panicked at first, and hurriedly threw the food in their hands and stood up. Seeing that some shepherds were chasing them, the two men looked a little relieved, and stood there with no intention of escaping. The two of them were dressed in energetic clothes, their faces were haggard, they looked tired, and they looked a little embarrassed.
When they looked closer, Fang Guolian, Jian Liang, and Luo Kun couldn't help but exclaim, "Li Ruchuan!?" When looking at the other person, Jian Liang was even more shocked and said, "Ximen Shuyan!?" "Those two are the national eunuch Li Ruchuan and the first master of the Hanyang Palace, Ximen Shuyan. Li Ruchuan and Ximen Shuyan were also shocked when they saw Fang Guolian, Jian Liang, and Luo Kun. The two sides were surprised by each other's unexpected encounter here, but they both seemed to understand something.
It turned out that after Fang Guolian and Jian Liang straightened the ground elephant, the situation of the original battle took a sharp turn for the worse, and the rebels of King Hanyang were severely damaged. Seeing the sudden reversal of the situation, Li Ruchuan suddenly felt bad, and guessed that the earth elephant on Yuan Island in Haiti, at the foot of Kunlun Mountain, might have been moved, and the earth atmosphere changed, which was unfavorable to the rebels. Li Ruchuan was shocked, and immediately led a group of guards from Ximen Shuyan and Hanyang Palace, and rushed to the Ganlan Temple of Daxue Peak in Kunlun Mountain day and night, wanting to enter the sea again to check the earth elephants on Diyuan Island. If the earth elephant has been moved, he will change it back, and if the earth elephant has been weakened by the force of nature, he will try to strengthen it again, so that the earth qi of the crypt corresponding to Hanyang will be violent again.
Li Ruchuan led a group of palace guards such as Ximen Shuyan to disguise themselves and rushed to the Daxue Peak of Kunlun Mountain almost non-stop along the way, lurking near Ganlan Temple, waiting for a night raid to rush into the entrance of the underground cave. However, their suspicious whereabouts were discovered by a lama who was practicing in the wilderness and reported back to Ganlan Monastery. Ji Sang and the other five "Venerable Fulong" were shocked when they heard the news, they were anxious about the underground disappearance of Fang Guolian, Jian Liang, and Luo Kun for a long time, and they heard that a group of mysterious figures appeared near Ganlan Temple, which was a different intention. Busy mobilizing masters to set up an ambush in the temple to prevent it from changing. That night, Li Ruchuan led Ximen Shuyan and other palace guards to attack Ganlan Temple at night, relying on the memory of being here once, and went straight to the entrance of the underground cave. Fortunately, the Ganlan Temple had already been fortified, and as soon as Li Ruchuan led the people into the temple, he was blocked by a large number of masters in the temple such as the five Venerables.
In a fierce battle, all the guards of the Hanyang Palace were killed, and only Ximen Shuyan protected Li Ruchuan and broke out of the siege and escaped from Ganlan Temple. If the blow failed, Li Ruchuan knew that the general trend had gone, and the night attack on Ganlan Temple was bound to alarm King Jin Shengfa. Li Ruchuan was recognized by Jisang Lama in the fierce battle, and although he escaped by luck, he was afraid that the Golden Holy Dharma King led the temple master to chase and kill. Therefore, Li Ruchuan and Ximen Shuyan did not dare to return to the original by the same route, and there was no need to return, so the two changed their routes and fled west.
Li Ruchuan was very afraid of the Golden Sage King, if the King of the Golden Sage went down the mountain to capture him, he would definitely die. The night attack on Ganlan Temple failed to change the place, and Li Ruchuan was already disheartened, but it was important to escape. He and Simon Shuyan fled westward, robbing the herdsmen of food and horses along the way, killing and injuring many innocent people. The two fled westward, although they avoided the pursuit of the masters of Ganlan Temple, but they met Fang Guolian, Jian Liang, and Luo Kun unexpectedly, which can be described as providence!
But they said that when the shepherds saw the two robbers who had killed and wounded their companions, they cried out and besieged them. Luo Kun and Jian Liang couldn't stop it, Ximen Shuyan waved a pair of golden hooks in his hand, and immediately knocked down several people, and the rest were shocked and retreated to the side and didn't dare to step forward.
Luo Kun said loudly: "Everyone stand back, this person is a martial arts master, you can't beat him." The "True Ru" sword was casually displayed, and it was protected in front of Fang Guolian and Jian Liang.
Li Ruchuan unexpectedly saw Fang Guolian and Jian Liang, and was surprised, the muscles on his face trembled, and the fierce light appeared, and he said gloomily: "I didn't expect you two little books to appear here, the earth and the earth of the sea have changed by you, why do you always have trouble with the old body, and it will hurt me." ”
When Fang Guohuan heard this, he said happily: "In this way, the rebels of the King of Hanyang have been defeated?" Then he realized: "Yes, if the rebels of the King of Hanyang do not show signs of defeat, Li Ruchuan will not appear here, and the land elephant is really like a spirit!" He smiled at Jian Liang and knew that he was done.
