Chapter 167: Snow Mountain Horror
Above the hall, a subordinate stood in the middle of the hall. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 The expression of the subordinate was very serious, with his ears pricked up, his eyes fixed on the side of the curtain, and occasionally shook the palm of the missing finger, as if the other side of the curtain was not a person but a god.
"How's it going? Childe has been gone for a while, why don't you see anyone return! Suddenly there was a questioning voice from the side of the curtain, and the sound was not loud but resounded throughout the hall.
"The little one has already sent people to search around, but Tubo is in a remote area, and the spies have not reported back yet." The subordinate said timidly.
"Hmph, what's the use of raising you? I can't even take care of one person, if Childe has something that is long and short,......" an angry voice came from the other side of the curtain.
"Gongzi Jiren has his own natural appearance, and he will be safe, and the villain will go to Tubo to find Gongzi in person!" Before the person on the other side of the curtain could finish speaking, the subordinate knelt down tremblingly, his face full of fear.
"Go ahead!" Suddenly, the tone on the other side of the curtain became unusually soft again.
"Yes!" As if he had escaped a great calamity, his face was covered with beads of sweat, and he quietly stood up and retreated.
The wind, howling. Snowflakes floated on the snowy plateau, and there was no life in the silvery snow except for the thin mist of people and Maha, which could determine the signs of life.
When leaving Mo Liyi, Zhu Mingyang specially bought a lot of cotton jackets in order to keep out the cold, and everyone walked hard in the snow wearing thick cotton jackets. After walking in the snow for a long time, even the horses shivered from the cold.
"Chunfeng! This wind and snow are too big, not suitable for continuing to walk, we must not stop, wait for the wind and snow to be a little smaller, we are on the road! Zhu Mingyang hugged Cuicui and said to Li Chunfeng.
"This wind and snow are indeed too big, but we can't rest in the snow, even if we don't freeze to death when we rest here, we will be buried alive by this heavy snow." Li Chunfeng raised his throat and said with the wind.
"Then hurry up and find a place where you can hide from the wind and snow, you see that the horses can't stand it!" Xu Yue'er and Gao Yanyan supported each other.
"Let's walk along this mountainside and find a place to rest in the north wind!" Zhu Mingyang said decisively.
After Zhu Mingyang finished speaking, he led everyone towards the peak in front of him, the mountain was not very high, but he couldn't even make out the road in the wind and snow.
"Childe, look!" Suddenly, Li Chunfeng pointed to the distance and said excitedly.
Zhu Mingyang looked at Li Chunfeng's fingers, but saw a cave looming halfway up the mountain, even though the snow was heavy, it still couldn't hide the black cave entrance.
"Great, God help me!" Zhu Mingyang shouted excitedly.
Everyone was also very excited to see the cave on the mountainside, as if the cave was the only life-saving straw, and they all accelerated their pace and walked towards the cave.
Zhu Mingyang led everyone to finally walk to the cave after a lot of effort, but saw that the cave was bigger and deeper than what he saw from a distance just now, and there was nothing to be seen in the dark cave.
Zhu Mingyang took out the fire fold from his sleeve, and the fire fold ignited a trace of spark in his hand, and with this faint spark, Zhu Mingyang found some dry branches from the entrance of the cave and lit a bonfire.
"Aren't we going in?" Xu Yue'er saw that Zhu Mingyang was only lit up at the entrance of the cave, and asked puzzledly.
"We are not familiar with this cave, and it looks very deep, I am afraid of danger, we can just avoid the wind and snow here!" Zhu Mingyang said calmly.
"I can't imagine that Lord Zhu, who is omnipotent, is actually afraid of a cave!" Xu Yue'er approached Zhu Mingyang and rubbed Zhu Mingyang on her shoulder.
"If you're not afraid, you can go in by yourself, and I won't stop you!" Zhu Mingyang smiled and said.
"Whoever said I'm afraid, I'll go in and show you now!" After Xu Yue'er finished speaking, she pulled out her sword, took the fire from the fire and walked towards the depths of the cave.
"Don't be scared and cry when the time comes, come out!" Zhu Mingyang said with a smile.
"Husband, Sister Yue'er, she ......," Cuicui said with concern as she watched Xu Yue'er walk towards the cave.
"It's out of the way, there's nothing in it, I'm just deliberately grinding her stubborn temper!" Zhu Mingyang smiled and said confidently.
"How do you know that there is nothing, Sister Cuicui is your wife, you don't care!" Gao Yanyan couldn't hold her breath anymore.
"Childe is right, when we first entered the cave, Childe carefully observed the entrance of the cave, and there was a complete spider web on top of the hole, which means that no living creatures entered the hole or came out of the hole!" Li Chunfeng said carefully.
"I see, it seems that you really have a hand!" Gao Yanyan praised.
"Ahh Just as a few people were chatting, suddenly Xu Yue'er's cry came from the cave, but her voice was full of fear.
"Come on, aren't you afraid, and you want to trick everyone again!" Zhu Mingyang shouted loudly towards the cave.
Zhu Mingyang waited for the echo in the cave with great interest, he had already guessed that Xu Yue'er came out of the cave angrily, but there was no sound in the cave for a long time.
"Is Sister Yue'er really in danger?" Cuicui stood up and stared at the dark cave.
"Yue'er!" Zhu Mingyang saw that something was wrong, so he also stood up and shouted, but he didn't get any response.
Zhu Mingyang felt more and more that something was wrong, he hurriedly took out a burning wooden stick from the fire and walked towards the depths of the cave, and everyone followed closely behind.
Through the dim firelight, Zhu Mingyang found that the cave was very narrow, the walls of the cave were covered with moss, and there were occasional spider webs on the moss, and it seemed that no one had been here for a long time.
"Yue'er!" After walking less than a pillar of incense, Zhu Mingyang found Xu Yue'er lying on the ground, staring only ahead, and the wooden stick that Xu Yue'er had just taken was still burning on the ground.
Seeing this, Zhu Mingyang hurriedly rushed over and picked up Xu Yue'er on the ground, and Xu Yue'er saw that it was Zhu Mingyang who hurriedly threw himself into his arms.
"Yue'er, don't be afraid! I am here! Zhu Mingyang gently patted Xu Yue'er on the back.
"You...... I hate you! It's only coming now! Xu Yue'er glared at Zhu Mingyang.
"It's all my fault!" Zhu Mingyang also blamed himself, after all, he had never done such a thing by leaving a girl in a dark cave.
"Husband, look!" Xu Yue'er's eyes suddenly lit up, she broke free from Zhu Mingyang's arms and pointed ahead.
Zhu Mingyang looked at Xu Yue'er's fingers, by the faint light of the fire, but saw that there were some people's bones scattered on the ground, it turned out that Xu Yue'er was frightened by these skeletons.
"How can there be a few bones here?" Li Mingyang was puzzled!
"It may be that the merchants in the past died here because of the exhaustion of food and grass, it seems that these people have been dead for some years!" Li Chunfeng doubled the skeleton.
"Huh! Husband, what do you think this is? Suddenly, Cuicui found an ancient thread-bound book next to the bones.
Zhu Mingyang took the book, but because the fire was too dim, he couldn't see the contents of the book clearly, and everyone inspected around but didn't get anything.
"Let's go out first!" Zhu Mingyang didn't have anything of value, and the fire was about to be extinguished, so he led everyone towards the entrance of the cave......
