Chapter 47: The Chamber of Secrets
I was pushed by Fan Lian, my body flew out, fell from mid-air, and fell heavily to the ground.
Fan Lian was outnumbered, with many injuries on his body, and he was about to be defeated. I didn't care much, grabbed a double-edged knife on the ground and rushed towards Fan Lian.
Fan Lian covered the wound on his shoulder with a painful expression, the long sword in his hand was supported on the ground, and his body was shaky. I went straight to his position, holding the knife and slashing left and right, relying on the three punches and two kicks I learned in Mangdang Mountain before, I also let me fight a bloody way.
These masked men are not very good at martial arts, but they are better than the number of people.
But after all, my kung fu has been rusty for so many years, and I have been lazy and do not exercise, only with a momentum to fight hard until now, at this time I have been physically exhausted, my legs are trembling and weak, my body is full of sweat, and the double-edged knife in my hand seems to weigh a thousand pounds, and it is a little laborious to lift.
Fan Lian was just a few steps away from me, I was already red-eyed, and there was only one thought in my mind: I had to kill him!
A masked man held up a Xuanhua axe and slashed horizontally and vertically from the outer circle like crazy, and an officer and soldier in front of me was directly cut in two by him with an axe.
I hurriedly took a few steps back, but the big man's iron axe had already chased to the top of my head, and it was too late to retreat, I hurriedly held the knife with both hands to set up his axe, but I didn't stand firm under my feet, a stumble, fell forward, I rolled forward, and then swung the knife to cut the big man's legs.
I didn't expect that the big man looked stupid, but the reaction was extremely fast, he jumped back a few steps, and then raised the iron axe to chop on my knife, my hand was numb, involuntarily let go of the knife, the big man's iron axe picked up, the back of the axe hit my chin, I screamed, the body leaned back, the big man stepped forward and made up for a kick, this kick just kicked on my stomach, I suddenly felt the internal organs flip and stir, leaned over to cover the stomach, wow, spit out a mouthful of blood.
The big man didn't stop, and he raised the iron axe again and chopped it down on my back, I had no strength to dodge, and thought: This time my life is bound to be confessed.
Unexpectedly, the big man's body holding the axe froze, and a long sword pierced his chest from his back, his eyes widened in disbelief, and his huge body fell to the ground with a bang.
Fan Lian swept his long sword, shaved off the arm of a masked man on the left, and then yelled at me, "What are you doing in a daze!" Come here yet! ”
I didn't dare to delay, stumbled up from the ground, and ran to Fan Lian's side.
"Why don't you get out of here, why don't you stay and make a mess?" Fan Lian's face was pale, but he was full of energy, and my ears were buzzing when he roared.
I seized the opportunity to slip my beard, "Naturally, I stayed to protect Lord Fan." ”
I glanced at the wound on Fan Lian's shoulder, the wound was so deep that it was exposed, such a serious injury, I don't know how he survived, and he could still yell at me so loudly, true blood.
"I, Fan Lian, have not fallen to the point where I need a woman's protection." Fan Lian said as he pulled me to his side.
The officers and soldiers swarmed up, protected us in the middle, and confronted the masked man with weapons in hand.
I whispered to Fan Lian and asked, "Master Fan, there are too many people on the other side, so the afternoon will definitely be over, is there a back door in the prison?" ”
"Nope."
"Is there any hiding place to take refuge?" As long as you can hold out until reinforcements arrive.
Fan Lian didn't answer for a long time, I turned my head to look at him suspiciously, and found that his face was as white as paper, and he was gritting his teeth and holding on.
I quickly reached out to hold his arm, "Master Fan, are you okay?" ”
Fan Lian shook his head, but his body shook.
I was not sure what to do, and suddenly I saw the phantom behind Fan Lian again.
The shadow nodded at me and reached back.
It seems to be saved.
"Master Fan, can you still go?"
Fan Lian closed his eyes and nodded.
Forget it, he looks half-dead, and he can't go far.
"Offended." I walked up to Fan Lian, turned my back to him, and then put my hands through the popliteal fossa behind his knees, and with a strong lift of my arms, I lifted him up and ran in the direction that the shadow had just pointed.
"Chen Fengming, you are looking for death! Hurry up and put me down. ”
I ignored Fan Lian's complaints, and ran forward desperately.
But it was so heavy that I had to stop and lift him up after running two steps.
Fan Lian was still squirming and arguing at the beginning for me to let him down, and after running for a while, he was completely dead, and I was worried about whether he was dead, and suddenly felt that there was a hard object in the back of the waist, although I was unemployed, but as a doctor, of course I knew what was going on.
I couldn't help but tease: "Master Fan is really interested, when he is so alive and dead, he can still move that kind of thought, which really makes the little woman admire and admire." ”
"Chen Fengming! If you talk too much, I'll kill you!" ”
Hey, I'm angry.
Anyway, I didn't have the strength to fight him anymore, so I stared intently at the shadow all the way, and followed him to a wall.
The shadow tapped a brick on the wall.
I was just about to step forward, but Fan Lian suddenly grabbed my throat and asked in a cold voice, "How did you know about this secret room?" ”
I said in a hoarse voice, "Let's go in first, and I'll explain it to you slowly?" ”
"No! This is forbidden land, and no one is allowed to enter it! ”
"No one will know anyway."
"That's not going to work either!"
I stomped my foot in a hurry, "Do you want to die here?" ”
"Even if you die, you can't go in!"
"Left and right are dead, you can still leave a whole corpse if you strangle me, it's a big deal that you can strangle me, even if this is Longtan Tiger's Den, I will go in today!" I stepped forward and kicked the brick that the shadow was pointing to.
After a rumbling sound, the wall began to move slowly in both directions, and when it reached a distance of about a step, it stopped.
This distance could only accommodate one person passing sideways, so I had to put Fan Lian down.
I reached out to pull him, and he dodged, "I'm not going in." ”
I was also anxious, "Hurry up with power, why are you so brainless!" ”
Fan Lian remained indifferent, "I have my principles. ”
The few remaining officers and soldiers couldn't resist for long, and the masked man would soon catch up, so I had to show my killer move, "This road was pointed out to me by your mother, and she begged you to go in now, and she has already knelt down for you." ”
The shadow knelt on the ground and sobbed, but Fan Lian couldn't see it at all, "You lie!" My mother is already dead! ”
"Your mother's name is Cuiyun, and she died of tuberculosis last spring, am I right?"
Fan Lian still didn't believe it, "Where did you hear about these things?" His expression suddenly became fierce, "You investigated me?" ”
"I'm idle and have nothing to do to investigate what you! There is a birthmark on the two fingers under your left breast, shaped like a sickle, so your mother named you Fan Lian. Because you were born in the second year of junior high school, the moon was the most curved that day, like slender and curved eyebrows, so your milk name is Emei. ”
Fan Lian's face was cloudy, and I continued: "You have accumulated too many evil debts in the underworld, and your mother is worried about you, so she is unwilling to reincarnate after death, so she has been following you as a ghost, she is kneeling in front of you now, she is begging you to go in, begging you to live." ”
"I don't believe it! There are no ghosts in this world! ”
I was so anxious that I was about to cry, "Big brother, does it have anything to do with me if you don't survive?" I'm so bitter, it's all for your mother's sake, okay? You don't believe in ghosts and gods, and you don't burn paper for her during the New Year's holidays, she can only follow the wild ghosts to grab tributes everywhere, the thin skin and bones are pitiful, it's all like this, and go around to pay off the famine for you, you kill a person, she will go up and beg for one, begging them not to speak ill of you in front of the king of Hades when they go to the underworld, those karma you owe, after death, the eighteen layers of hell are not enough to repay, but your mother helped you pay back most of it. When I was tortured, she knelt beside you and begged me not to hold a grudge against you, and you said that if you don't live a few more years and do some good deeds to accumulate some yin virtue, are you right about the things your mother has done for you all these years? ”
Fan Lian was stunned for a while, and I quickly took the opportunity to grab him and get into the secret room together.
The door to the chamber closed behind us, and my heart finally landed.
Cuiyun's soul was already very weak, even if my eyes could see yin and yang, I could only see her general outline, and her voice was coming and going, and most of the time I could only interpret what she said according to the shape of her mouth.
She stood in front of me, said "thank you" silently, and then disappeared.
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, I deeply feel Cuiyun's mother's affection, so I can't hate Fan Lian.
I was probably infected by Cuiyun and treated Fan Lian as my own chick.
As the old saying goes, self-doesn't stink. No matter how naughty her child is, it is impossible for a mother to watch him die in front of her eyes.
Alas, I am overflowing with maternal love.
I just wanted to find a place to sit down and rest, when suddenly there was a muffled sound of "boom" behind me, I turned around and looked, it turned out to be Fan Lian fainted.
He had already lost too much blood, and it was really enough to choke on me when I bumped the way.
I hurriedly walked over and checked his pulse, the pulse was steady and strong, and there was no problem in living for another ten or eight years.
I looked at his wound again.
The wound is no longer bleeding, but it is seriously red and swollen, and the wound must be treated quickly, otherwise when the sepsis penetrates the bones and enters the heart, there will be no way to return to heaven.
But now where to find medicinal herbs, I feel quite difficult for a while, so I can only get up and walk around to see if there is anything that can be used.
The secret room is divided into two rooms, the place where Fan Lian and I are located is the outer room, and there is a door further inside, the outer room is bare only with four walls, so I have to go to the inner room to try my luck.
The door was made of iron, and it didn't open the window, but it wasn't locked, and I tried to push it, but it didn't squeak open.
The secret room is always connected to some mysterious things, and I don't know what is behind the door, but I actually feel a little hairy in my heart.
But I thought about it, the cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods all call me brothers, black and white impermanence are my mentors and friends, and the people who are covered with hair and horns, and the people who are wet and egg-like are all my fellow immortals, so what else do I have to be afraid of in this world?
With that in mind, I didn't hesitate any longer, pushed the door open and walked in.
