Chapter 339: Temporary Refuge

The Turkic national teacher Ashina and Yan Zhongyi sneaked to the Tang Dynasty, Yan Zhongyi first stole the falling flower knife from Yuan Feng, and then sneaked into the military department to steal the tiger talisman used to transfer troops. Ashina actually killed Gu Yunfei with the Falling Flower Knife, this was originally a trick to blame others, the original plan was that as long as the Falling Flower Knife Sect and the Criminal Department caught the head once they fought, he and Yan Zhongyi could escape from Yanmen Pass calmly, and they didn't want one of the undead beasts to be captured by Yuan Feng.

The Tianya Mountain Range stretches for hundreds of miles, and the main peak is called Qingyu.

Yan Zhongyi traveled ten miles north around Qingyu Peak, and by the moonlight, he came to a valley clearing, all the open space was a mine, and in the middle of the pit was an iron-making furnace, which was two zhang high, dragging the moon shadow five or six zhang long and standing alone in the valley.

Yan Zhongyi carried a thunderstorm on his back and squeezed in through the cracked wall at the bottom of the stone furnace. The furnace is divided into two parts, the upper part is a refining furnace that mixes iron ore and black coal and burns together, after the iron ore is burned into molten iron, it will flow down the hole at the bottom of the furnace to the bottom, and the lower part where Lei Yu and Yan Zhongyi are located is the drainage furnace that allows the molten iron to flow out.

This kind of temporary shelter is arranged every few hundred miles, Yan Zhongyi is also a flesh-and-blood person, and on the way to escape after stealing the tiger talisman, she also needs to rest, eat and heal!

Yan Zhongyi stood with his back on the side of an extremely simple wooden bed in the drainage furnace, and woke up the thunderstorm that was holding him, and the thunderstorm in his sleep opened his eyes and let go, and the person had fallen crooked on the wooden bed. The thousand bee needles nailed to his legs were crushed, and the pain was only so painful that the thunderstorm was all over his head and his face was covered with cold sweat.

Yan Zhongyi said with concern: "Did I hurt you?" ”

Thunderstorm fell crooked on the wooden bed and smiled bitterly. said: "I'm tired of you all the way, you fell and I fell, and we are even." ”

Yan Zhongyi tilted his head left and right. Wiping the hot sweat from his cheeks on his shoulders, he put an oil lamp in front of Lei Yu with his teeth, and when he lit the lamp, he said suspiciously: "Are you really my own brother?" ”

Lei Yu glared at her and said, "I don't dare to have a good sister like you who steals talismans!" ”

After speaking, Lei Yu took out a magnet from his backpack, sucked out all the thousand bee needles in his legs and Yan Zhongyi's arms, and then carefully bandaged Yan Zhongyi's wounds.

Yan Zhongyi was angry with her again when she saw the thunderstorm. kicked a half-foot-high wooden barrel from behind the bed to the wooden bed where Lei Yu was sitting. He smiled flatteringly, "Guess what's in this barrel?" ”

Thunderstorm sniffs the tightly covered barrel with his nose. "How do I know what's in the barrel?" ”

Yan Zhongyi smiled: "If you want to hurt your head, you can't guess what's in the bucket!" ”

Lei Yu thought unconvinced for a long time, and preached what he liked to eat: "There must be a wind chicken bacon from Huai'an Baicao in the bucket, and there will also be smoked sausages from the second sister-in-law of Yeliu Town, and there must be no shortage of grains and fruits and dense starch that girls like to eat." At last. There should also be a bottle of wine. ”

"It's a bottle of Persian wine!" Yan Zhongyi smiled: "It seems that we are really brother and sister, otherwise how could the appetite be the same?" ”

Lei Yu opened the lid of the sealed wooden barrel with both hands, and there was a 'squeak' inside, and more than a dozen gray-brown mountain rats escaped in all directions, and the two couldn't help but be stunned together.

"They stole your chicken, bacon and smoked sausages, as well as candy and sweets!" Thunderstorm stammered.

"Just left us a bottle of wine!" Yan Zhongyi said hatefully: "They must be all the way to Ashina's undead beasts!" ”

Thunderstorm fell on the bed and laughed, "This is already very good, we have a shelter to shelter from the wind and rain, and a wooden bed to sleep on." There was wine to drink, and there were people to talk to each other. Compared with the great master of Ashina, I don't know how many times stronger! ”

Yan Zhongyi, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, was also said by him: "It's a great joy in life to have a brother, you can take a sip of this bottle of Persian wine than me, it's a reward!" ”

Lei Yu shook his head with a wry smile, but found that on the sleeve of his right clothes, I don't know when there was a silver-white undead beast hair, Lei Yu carefully took off the beast hair as thick as a pig's bristle with his right finger, pinched the other end with his left hand, and under the force of both hands, the animal hair was stretched longer and longer by him, and when he let go, the animal hair retracted back into its original shape.

Yan Zhongyi said with a smile: "I once slashed one of the animal hair of the undead beast with a protective short knife seventy or eighty times in the Holy Water Palace, but in the end I still didn't cut it off, I think you shouldn't waste your efforts." ”

Lei Yu looked at Yan Zhongyi and asked, "Where did you hide the tiger talisman of the Tang Army?" ”

Yan Zhongyi said impatiently: "Do you believe it or not, I have already handed over the talisman to Ashina, for the sake of you being my brother, I will help you take it back!" ”

The tossing and turning thunderstorm had just fallen asleep in the middle of the night, but was awakened by the sound of the refining furnace overhead, the thunderstorm tilted his head and listened for a while, and whispered to Yan Zhongyi, who was awakened: "Is someone adding a furnace on it?" ”

Yan Zhongyi got off the wooden bed with a thunderstorm on his back, and came to the gap in the bottom furnace wall, and by the moonlight, he saw Ashina standing in front of the iron-making furnace with a bronze mask on his head, and threw the dry firewood and a pile of mixed black ore into the furnace one after another.

Lei Yu looked at the ghostly Ashina Jingliu, and frowned: "Do you recognize who he is?" ”

Yan Zhongyi whispered: "He is my master Ashina Jingliu." ”

Ashina actually added to the furnace, found a long dead branch and lit it with fire, poked in through the door of the drainage furnace, and ignited the firewood at the bottom of the refining furnace under the round hole where the molten iron flowed!

Lei Yu didn't understand what Ashina actually wanted to do, and his legs couldn't move, if he forcibly rushed out to ask Ashina Jingliu about the whereabouts of the tiger talisman, he didn't have to think that he was hitting a stone with an egg, and Yan Zhongyi hid in the corner of the bottom furnace with Thunderstorm on his back. As the fire above the two of them burned, the temperature of the bottom furnace also rose a little bit, the most terrible thing is not the unavoidable high temperature, but the smoke that drifted in, if the two accidentally coughed, really let Ashina actually hear, I am afraid that it will immediately lead to death!

Yan Zhongyi took half a bottle of Persian grape wine and drank the leftovers, and the thunderstorm tore off two pieces of the placket, and after wetting the placket with wine, he gave Yan Zhongyi a piece, and the two of them covered their mouths and noses in the thick smoke.

The top furnace burned for more than half an hour, Yan Zhongyi and Lei Yu's mouths were dry, their clothes were all wet with sweat, and a stream of molten iron with a color like a red lotus flowed out of the drainage hole above the heads of the two, and flowed along the iron trough to the stone barrel outside the furnace.
