Chapter 706: First Battle of the Tarslaves (24)
I climbed for another day, but the results of this day were not high, and I climbed less than ten zhang high. But there was no danger, and the old village chief was satisfied.
At night, he found a sheltered rock and slept under it. Now I'm not afraid of any beasts. Such a steep place is impossible for ordinary animals except leopards and goats to climb.
In this way, they can sleep together without having to be beaten by anyone.
The second day continued, the third day continued, and on the fourth day there was no way to climb again.
The four of them stood on a small platform, with a cliff above them and an abyss below. Don't look at the ease of climbing up, it's not easy to go down again, it's so steep, it's dizzy to look at.
The old village chief looked carefully on both sides of the small platform, and there was no road to follow. Suffice it to say, they are already approaching a dead end.
The old village chief had to say: "Da Lang, it seems that we still have to go down and find a new way." ”
The boss Li Shan said: "Okay, just listen to the uncle." ”
There was no way, and the four of them cautiously descended again, and they finally climbed the cliff that seemed to be. After going down, the four of them rested for a while, while the third Li He crossed the marks he had made. The old village chief began to lead them to the right. With experience, he felt that there might be something to climb on the right.
The old village chief looked up as he walked.
Suddenly he stopped.
The second Li Hai looked at the old village chief's eyes, and then asked, "Uncle, it's too steep here, I'm afraid you can't go up, right?" ”
Boss Li Shan also means this. The third Li He was silent.
The old village chief said, "It's steep here, but it's not so steep up there. We only need to climb this short section to climb where we couldn't climb just now. ”
At this time, the third Li He spoke, and only heard him say: "I think Uncle's plan is feasible." ”
The boss Li Shan said, "Then what are we waiting for?" With that, he was the first to drive up and climb up.
In front of them was a cliff that was almost standing, of course, it was a bit exaggerated, but it was very steep anyway.
The boss, Li Shan, had just climbed a third of the way and slid down.
"No, it's too steep and slippery!" Boss Li Shan patted and said.
The old village chief shook his head helplessly and said, "If you can't climb up, then I won't have to mention the old decay." ”
The four of them stared at the steep stone wall in a daze.
After a while, the third Li He muttered to himself: "If only there was a chisel." ”
"Chisels? Isn't it the same with a woodcutter? The second Lehi said suddenly.
The other three glanced at each other, and the third Li He's eyes lit up suddenly, and said, "Yes, it's the same with a woodcutter." ”
The old village chief immediately took out the woodcutter. This woodcutter has a thick blade and a good steel edge. The old village chief said, "This knife is made of stainless steel. and gave me three taels of silver. I've never had it since I got my hands on it. Sharp very. Is Saburo going to use it as a chisel? ”
The third Li He said with a smile: "Of course." After speaking, he handed it to the boss Li Shan, and said: "Big brother, you have great strength, you can use this woodcutter to cut this stone out of a shallow staircase." So we can all go up. ”
The boss Li Shan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately took the knife in his hand and said, "Third brother, this is a good idea." No matter how hard this stone is, it is not as hard as this woodcutter, is it? Hehe. ”
"Hey! It's just a pity for my woodcutter! The old village chief sighed and said, he was a little reluctant to give up this beloved sword.
The third Li He said: "Uncle, when you get the Ganoderma lucidum and go down the mountain, our senior brother will go to the city to give you a better handful." ”
"Good, good." The old village chief laughed and said, "Da Lang, what are you waiting for?" Do it? ”
"Okay uncle." Boss Li Shan smiled and said. With that, he swung his knife and slashed at the stone.
The blade and the stone intersected, and suddenly sparks appeared, and a crisp sonorous sound echoed through the mountains. In a short time, a two-inch deep foot socket was cut out, just enough for one person to climb into it.
The boss Li Shan picked up the knife and looked at the tip of the knife, but there was no damage in the slightest. I couldn't help but admire: "What a good knife." ”
The old village chief said again: "That's, this is three taels of silver!" Can it be bad? Hehe. ”
The boss saw hope and continued to slash upwards. When he was tired of chopping, he changed the second Li Hai, and when the second Li Hai was tired of cutting, he changed to the third Li He, and when he changed to the eldest Li Mountain again, the eldest climbed this steep stone wall.
"Hahaha, I'm coming up." He stood on the stone wall and shouted, his excitement palpable.
The old village chief below, the second Li Hai and the third Li He all laughed.
Immediately, the third Li He said: "Uncle, you go first." ”
The old village chief nodded with a smile and said, "Okay." With that, he climbed the stone wall. Although he climbed slowly, he climbed safely.
Then there are the second Li Hai and the third Li He.
The third Li He looked at the second Li Hai and said, "Second brother, you go first!" ”
The second brother Li Hai smiled and said, "The third brother will go first, and the second brother will come to the palace." ”
The third Li He said: "It's okay." After saying that, he climbed up. He was young, physically dexterous, and quickly climbed up.
Then he looked at the second child Li Hai below, and saw him take a few steps back, and then ran a section and boarded the stone, and the one who pedaled actually ran up. landed safely beside the three of them.
The old village chief gave a thumbs up and said, "Erlang is so handsome in martial arts!" ”
The second Li Hai smiled slightly and said, "It's just a small matter." ”
A few people burst out laughing. Enough laughter, and looking up, compared to the steep stone cliff on the line, the upper section is considered a smooth road.
The boss Li Shan said: "Let's go, let's continue." ”
The four of them began to climb and felt a lot more relaxed. It took an hour to climb this stone cliff that was almost more than 20 zhang high.
However, after climbing up, several people were also tired and out of breath. The old village chief sat on the ground with his ass, shaking his head and smiling bitterly, while panting heavily.
Don't look tired, but they all have a sense of accomplishment, a sense of accomplishment. It's the kind that makes people feel very satisfied.
The boss Li Shan said: "This time we have a good rest. ”
"Okay." The second Li Hai and the third Li He agreed in unison.
By this time, they had climbed to a dozen and a half. This is already no small miracle.
At this time, the old village chief talked about it, and only heard him say: "Da Lang, Erlang, San Lang, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to climb so high in this life!" ”
The third Li He said with a smile: "What is the uncle, what is the hurry, it's not too late for you to thank us when you get to the top of the mountain?" Hehe. ”
