Chapter 61: The Legend of the White Dragon
Sang Nan guessed that what Duanmu Jian said was probably the truth. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
He remembered that when he was exploring the cave before, the cave was extremely humid, and it was wet everywhere, and he began to think that it was because the cave was close to the Suolong Gorge, but now he realized that these might be signs of the existence of the dark river in the cave.
Just as he was thinking about it, Wang Che brought a resolute-looking young general to the camp.
"Childe, this is General Ren of Yangqiu City!"
"In the next Ren Bin, I have seen Sang Gongzi!" Seeing Sang Nan's gaze, the young brigade commander hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
"The general doesn't need to be polite!" Sang Nan sat down and nodded, and said indifferently.
"What is the situation in Yangqiu City now?"
"The situation in Yangqiu City has been very tense, and in recent days, there have been more than ten troops from the West Island attacking the surrounding towns and villages, and Marshal Mu is busy transferring people and horses to support at this time, so he has no time to come here, so he specially ordered the subordinate to lead the troops to assist Gongzi, and I hope Gongzi will not be surprised." Ren Bin introduced the current situation and conveyed the apology of the military marshal Mu Tianxi.
"Marshal Mu is polite!" Sang Nan waved his hand, but suddenly asked an inexplicable question:
"Is General Ren a native of Yangqiu?"
"Down there are native Yangqiu people." Ren Bin didn't know why, so he had to answer truthfully.
"Oh? Is that general familiar with Suolong Gorge? ā
"Suolong Gorge?" Ren Bin looked up at Sang Nan, a little bit unable to understand the meaning of his words.
"The water in Suolong Gorge is turbulent and the terrain is treacherous, so ordinary people rarely come here. I, I'm not too familiar with it either! ā
"So, has anything strange happened in Suolong Gorge before?" Sang Nan thought for a moment and asked again.
"Strange things?" Ren Bin lowered his head and muttered for a moment, then raised his head suddenly, "When I was a child, I heard Father Wang in the village talk about an incident, I don't know if it's unusual?" ā
"What's the matter?" Sang Nan asked curiously.
"He said that there is really a dragon in the Lock Dragon Gorge!"
"There's a dragon?" Sang Nan and Wang Che were stunned, this thing was not unusual, but a little mysterious.
"Hehe, I didn't believe it at the time." Seeing the expressions of the two, Ren Bin's expression was a little confused.
"Daddy Wang said that there was a child in the village who used to play by the river, accidentally fell into the Suolong Gorge and was washed away without a trace, everyone thought he must be dead, who would have thought that more than ten years later, the child actually returned to the village alive."
"The child's parents were still alive, and they were busy grabbing him to ask him about the reason, but he told his parents that he had been saved by a huge white dragon."
And after the white dragon rescued him, he sent him far away, and he could not find his way home, so he could only wander around, until he met an elderly couple later, and was taken in and raised. More than ten years later, the old couple passed away one after another, so he went to a nearby city and inquired about the location of Yangqiu, only to find out that Langang Village, where he was located, was actually located 700 miles away from Yangqiu City. He trekked hard for more than a month before finally finding his home. ā
"Did the kid see a white dragon?" After listening to Ren Bin's story, Sang Nan's heart was full of doubts.
In fact, he didn't believe Ren Bin's words at all, even the dragon tendon warrior Ji Tieyi had never seen a real dragon, not to mention an ordinary child, who was saved by the white dragon, was that white dragon so idle?
"At that time, the people in the village, including the child's parents, did not believe what he said, and repeatedly asked him if he had actually seen the dragon."
The boy said that he was terrified, and the light around him was dim, so he couldn't see clearly, but he remembered that he was lying on a huge white back, otherwise he would have drowned, how could he have run hundreds of miles away?
Sang Nan and Wang Che were silent, because they couldn't explain how the kid had run seven hundred miles away.
This is a bit of a counterintuitive!
After a long time, Sang Nan said with a serious expression: "General Ren, I have an urgent task to hand over to you now......"
After Wang Che and Ren Bin went out, Sang Nan called Zhang Huan, Guo Er, Mei Dongli and others over, told them their plan of action, and asked several people to go back separately to prepare.
After nightfall, more than a hundred figures quietly left the camp, climbed over the Schwader Mountain, stepped on several huge reefs on the river, and quickly swooped down on the opposite side of the Jura Mountains.
These figures are extremely fast, like light smoke, running and climbing quickly in the mountains and forests, the roar of the Anbei River, and the cries of the beasts in the mountains cover their voices. A few clouds of chance passage obscured their tracks.
They soon arrived at their daytime stop.
One person made a gesture, and more than a hundred people immediately dispersed and disappeared into the dense forest.
In the dead of night, the full moon hangs high, the wind blows the leaves, making a rustling sound, the dense and deep shadows of the trees, revealing a bit of seclusion, from time to time there are a few points of oil green and yellow in the forest, occasionally mixed with a few animal roars, the Jura Mountains in the middle of the night can not be said to be mad.
These figures hid in the jungle, carefully searched the surroundings, and soon locked on one target after another, which were all secret sentinels of the West Island.
The West Island Sentinels were extremely experienced, they made hammocks out of rattan, slept on tall trees, and could observe everything under the trees at any time, and in this wood, a total of thirty Sentry were in ambush.
Sang Nan and the others hid under the tree, holding delicate bows and crossbows, quietly waiting for the opportunity.
Suddenly, on the opposite side of Schwald Mountain, a huge fire was ignited, and at the same time, there was a noisy shouting of killing, which instantly aroused the vigilance of the dark sentinel. Instinctively, they all looked in the direction of the firelight, but they ignored the enemy under the tree.
At this moment, the slight bowstring sounded, and the dark whistle felt a sudden stinging pain in his neck, like being bitten by a mosquito. The humidity of the forest nourishes a large number of mosquitoes, and even if you apply insect repellent powder, you will inevitably encounter desperate guys.
The stinging part quickly became numb, and then spread to the whole body, and the dark whistle found that he could not see or speak at the moment, and was able to stay quietly in the tree.
The bolts were coated with Medon's poison.
After solving the sentry outside the crack, everyone lay on the ground, slowly approaching the crack, Mei Dongli took out a slender roll of tubular objects made of hollow rattan from his waist, unfolded it in a circle, and then gently reached into the gap, and then took the other end with his mouth, and began to blow desperately into the crack.
The round pipe was filled with light blue powder, the kind of powerful drug that made the dart falcon restraining and making Li Yuanru sleep for a day, and was blown into the crack by Mei Dongli without reservation.
Plop plop! The sound of heavy objects falling to the ground kept coming from the cracks, and Sang Nan counted carefully, and there were about fifty people who were fascinated.
After waiting for a quarter of an hour, when there was no more sound inside, he covered his mouth and nose with a thick cotton cloth and crawled into the crack. (To be continued.) )
