Chapter 36: The Man in the Cave

The boiling water of the Yi River sparkles under the residual sun.

On both sides of the river, the Junfeng is continuous, the forest is deep and dense, and the sunlight is blocked out, and only the slightest beam of light shines into the forest.

The wind howled in the forest, and the sound was like thunder!

In the dense forest of the valley, a strong man in armor, with a longbow on his back and a large sword in his hand, was galloping.

Not far ahead, there is a mountain blocking the way, the mountain is steep, like a knife, the vines on the slope are intertwined, and the wind is impermeable.

Even the best goats could not stand on such a cliff, but as if he could not see it, he ran straight over, and was about to crash into the cliff.

I don't know if he really can't see it, or if he's stupid!

Suddenly, just as he was about to collide, he swung his broadsword and stabbed him.

With a "rub", the knife stabbed into the vine, but the sound of not touching the mountain stone came out, and the vine was very thick.

When the knife was about to run out of handles, he stretched out his other hand and plunged it into the vine next to the big knife, and then he forcefully parted the sides, and there was a slit in it, which was dark and invisible.

His whole body got into the crack and disappeared.

The wind was still blowing, causing the vines to sway from side to side.

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps.

At the sound of footsteps, two men and two women came to the vine that the man in armor had just burrowed into.

"Huh? What about people, why are they gone! One of the thin men frowned, and kept scanning the surroundings, the others thin, but their faces were full of fierceness.

The other man was slender and handsome, with a glamorous scar on his face, from the corner of his eye to the corner of his mouth, he was Fang Chengtian.

Those two women are Pei Sishi and Xiaoyu.

They drove for three days and finally came to the territory of Linyi County, Yizhou.

Originally, they were driving a carriage and walking on the official road outside the forest.

If Captain Zuo hadn't recognized the armored soldier just now, they wouldn't have abandoned the carriage and chased them into this dense forest.

Fang Chengtian also frowned, glanced around, and muttered, "Captain Zuo, that person just now...... Are they really our people? ”

Xiao Yu frowned, bit her lip, and said, "This soldier is in a hurry, but don't recognize the wrong person, otherwise it will not be good to step into danger!" ”

Captain Zuo smiled: "Don't worry, Miss Xiaoyu, I have drunk with him, I can't be wrong!" It's a pity that the wind is too loud, and he shouted him so many times, but he didn't hear it, and this kid didn't know how to be a scout, so he just ran with his head buried in it, and he didn't know how to look around at any time. ”

Pei Sishi gasped, raised her arm to wipe the sweat from the corner of her forehead, and said suspiciously: "I obviously saw him coming this way, why did he suddenly disappear?" "She has no martial arts, but she has not fallen behind, and at the moment she is running with soreness in her feet and legs, and she is out of breath.

Fang Chengtian looked at the canopy of the trees above his head, looked at the steep cliff, and said lightly: "It must be around here, look carefully, and see if he has left any traces?" ”

The wind in the valley, the wind is directionless, one moment it blows from this side, and the next it blows from that side, and the grass on the ground is blown to the ground, and even if it is stepped on, it cannot be seen without looking closely.

After searching for a long time, they didn't find any clues.

Pei Sishi looked at the cliff and muttered, "You say...... Will he climb up the vine? ”

Fang Chengtian looked up and said with a smile: "No, Miss Pei, you see, the higher this cliff goes, the steeper it becomes, and there is no way to stand on it at all!" ”

As he spoke, his gaze slowly shifted downward, and he suddenly settled on a vine that was swaying from side to side by the wind.

I saw that on that vine, there was a leaf that was only half a leaf.

Fang Chengtian tightened his eyebrows, and when he got closer, it seemed to be cut off by a sharp weapon, he couldn't help but stare at the vine for a long time, and suddenly exclaimed: "Captain Zuo, come here!" ”

Captain Zuo walked over and said suspiciously, "Little Doctor Fang, what's wrong?" ”

Fang Chengtian pointed to the half leaf and said with a smile: "He may be in the mountain!" ”

Captain Zuo nodded slightly, and forcefully parted the thick vines in front of him, and a dark cave suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

There were no vines to cover it, and the wind blew into the cave, making a "hmm" sound, like a ghost crying wolf.

Fang Chengtian turned back, looked at Pei Sishi, and then looked at Xiao Yu and said, "Little Yu girl, you protect Miss Pei well, stay outside, and I will go in with Captain Zuo to take a look." ”

The vine was lowered, and the hole immediately turned pitch black, and the five fingers could not be seen.

"Click~~" Suddenly a wisp of sparks burst out, Captain Zuo lit the fire, and the sparks kept flying in all directions, and gradually, a faint yellow light lit up.

"Squeak~~" Suddenly, the sound of the bowstring pulling up sounded suddenly, and I saw a flash of fire in the darkness, and a feather arrow shot straight towards Captain Zuo like lightning, and under a closer look, the tip of the arrow seemed to have a hint of blue.

Fang Chengtian was taken aback and shouted, "Be careful! ”

Before he could say anything, he kicked Captain Zuo to the ground, and the fire broke off and fell to the ground, and the hole became pitch black again.

Captain Zuo had just fallen to the ground, and he felt a cold air coming, so he rolled and shouted: "I am General Yang Yifan's subordinate!" In the shouting, only the sound of "dang" was heard, and where he fell to the ground just now, sparks flew everywhere, followed by the sound of feather arrows breaking.

The echo faded, and no one spoke.

After another moment, a deep voice sounded: "Are you Yang Yifan's person?!" There was a compelling majesty in his voice.

"Yes!" Captain Zuo answered, and immediately swept to the side.

"Dang", where he was standing, sparks splashed everywhere.

The other party actually released a cold arrow in accordance with the sound!

Captain Zuo shouted again: "I am really General Yang Yifan's subordinate, the brother who just returned to the cave from outside, when we attacked Yunzhou two months ago, we drank wine together on the edge of Yishui?" I'm Lao Zuo, haven't you forgotten? ”

"Old Zuo?" A slightly hoarse voice rang out, "How many people have drunk with me, how do I remember?!" Besides, do you remember my name? ”

Captain Zuo inhaled carefully, did not answer his question again, and the cave fell silent again!

Fang Chengtian stuck to the stone wall and thought, "They don't seem to know Captain Zuo at all, and if they don't believe it, what should they do?" ”

At this time, the deep voice sounded again: "Since you claim to be Yang Yifan's subordinate, do you know who Yang Yifan's peak is?" ”

"General Huang Gang, Huang Gang!" Captain Zuo responded and changed his position again.

However, this time there was no cold arrow attack, only the low and majestic voice: "Okay, you light the fire and let General Ben take a look!" ”

"Good!" Lieutenant Zuo responded, and began to lean over and grope for the fire folds on the ground.

Fang Chengtian didn't speak, but he kept thinking in his mind: "Captain Zuo has reported his identity, but we don't know who the other party is, will there be fraud?" No, we have to determine their identities. ”

So, he asked, "Are you soldiers of the rebels?" ”

The deep voice asked rhetorically, "If we were Tang Jun, would you still be able to stand there safely and talk?" ”

Captain Zuo said at this time: "Doctor Fang, I can't be mistaken, they must be from our righteous army!" ”

"Doctor Fang?" The deep voice was puzzled, "Are you Fang Chengtian, the apprentice of Xuan Shibo?" ”

Fang Chengtian said suspiciously: "Are you?" ”

"Haha~~ I'm your big brother Wang, Wang Xianzhi!"

Before he could finish speaking, a pale yellow light lit up in the cave.
