Qiu Ruxue beckoned, signaling the white blind man to go to the cave to temporarily guard, and when the white blind man moved to the entrance of the cave, Qiu Ruxue came over, took the stone from Chu Huan's hand, held it in the palm of his hand and looked at it, and after looking at it for a long time, he said: "This stone is a little weird, but ...... I think I've seen ...... before! ”

Chu Huan immediately asked, "Where have you seen it?" ”

"Where have you seen it?" Qiu Ruxue frowned, as if he was recalling, his eyes lit up, and finally said: "Oh, I remember, this should be called a cold stone ......!" ”

"Cold Stone?" Chu Huan smiled and said, "Brother Qiu knows that it's called Hanshi? ”

"How do you feel when you hold this stone in your hand?" Qiu Ruxue put the white rock back into Chu Huan's hand, Chu Huan held it in his hand, and after a while, he felt a chill in his palm, this rock hemp grains, not only did it feel extremely bad, but the temperature was getting lower and lower.

Chu Huan said with a smile: "This rock is cold. ”

"It's a pity that it's not too cold." Qiu Ruxue said: "If it is really cool, in the middle of summer, put these stones into the house, wouldn't it be cool in the house?" It's just cooler than ordinary stones, I saw it many years ago, the first time I saw it, I thought it was jade, and then after touching it, there was no warm luster of jade, so I knew that this kind of thing was called cold stone. ”

"Does Brother Qiu know what this cold stone does?"

"Effect?" Qiu Ruxue smiled and said, "Haven't you seen a cold stone before? Speaking of which, it's useless, it's just different from the color of ordinary rocks, if you use it to build a house, the hardness is not enough, this kind of cold stone is easy to break, I remember that some people used to think about using this cold stone to make floor tiles, but unfortunately if there is a heavy object smashed on it, this cold stone will be broken, so it is not used to make floor tiles. ”

Chu Huan was surprised: "You mean, this cold stone is useless?" ”

"You can't say that." Qiu Ruxue saw the white blind man looking back at himself from time to time, his eyes were clearly with a hint of admiration, knowing that the white blind man admired how much he knew, and his heart was really a little comfortable, "My lord, this kind of thing is nothing in Kansai, but when it comes to Guannei, it is still somewhat useful." Some well-off people, in their own yard scenery, this cold stone can be made into a rockery, white rockery, at first glance, just like white jade made, can be regarded as a scene, I heard people say that in the previous dynasties, there was a period of time, many people in the customs liked to use the cold stone scenery, erected in their own house, as a face...... But then I knew that this cold stone was cheap, and I couldn't fill my face, so I used it less, and now there are very few people who use cold stone as a set......! ”

"Why is it nothing in Kansai?" Chu Huanqi said.

Qiu Ruxue said with a smile: "My lord, it seems that I don't know the cold stone, it's no wonder, now this cold stone is very cheap, useless, and not much is used in the pass, this kind of cold stone is produced in the northwest, especially the mountain, ten mountains in the northwest, there are three or four such cold stones." ”

Chu Huan exclaimed: "There is such a number? ”

Qiu Ruxue nodded, seeing Chu Huan's strange expression, he asked, "My lord, why did you become interested in this cold stone?" ”

Chu Huan sighed: "Brother Qiu, what price did you buy the cold stones used in the customs before?" ”

"It's not clear, but it's cheap." Qiu Ruxue said: "At the earliest, Guannai only felt strange, so the price could be improvised, but later we all knew that this kind of cold stone was a disaster everywhere in the northwest, and there was no price, and it would cost to transport stones from Guanxi to Guannai, and the price was not good, so no one wanted to do such a business." ”

Chu Huan bowed slightly, thoughtful.

He seemed to care very much about the cold stone, and used the blood drinking knife to cut the cold stone in half, and half of it was in his arms, and he was puzzled, wondering why the Governor would put such an ordinary rock in his eyes.

Suddenly, I heard the white blind man cry out, "My lord, it's not good, you ...... Come and see! ”

Chu Huan and the others were immediately alert, they all clenched their weapons, and they all arrived at the edge of the cave, only to see the white blind man pointing to the waterfall in front of him and said, "My lord, look, this is ...... Is this one of those dog mongrels doing the trick? ”

"My lord, we guessed right." Qiu Ruxue had already sneered: "If they really go upstream, they want to cut off the water flow." ”

The waterfall is still pouring down, but the momentum of the pouring is obviously not as good as before, the water curtain is intermittent, not as smooth as before, as if there is no momentum of the Milky Way pouring down the river before.

"Looks like these guys really have some ability." Chu Huan said lightly: "They can even come up with this trick, and it seems that their plan to intercept the flow has really worked." ”

"My lord, let's kill it now." The white blind man clenched the knife in his hand, "When they really cut off the water flow completely, they really want to shoot random arrows into it, and we won't have a chance to get out." ”

Chu Huan shook his head and said, "If you go out now, you may not be able to do it." When we fought them before, it was dark, and we fought with them, and their archers were always in a bad position...... But now that it was dawn, some of them had cut off the water upstream, and there must have been men outside the cave, and now outside the waterfall, all their archers must have been aimed at us, and if we rushed over the waterfall, they would surely shoot us. ”

Qiu Ruxue also nodded and said: "What the adults said is extremely true, they have never used archers before, because they are afraid of hurting their own people, plus the sky is dark, those archers have not yet reached the ability of the wolf baby to listen to the position, but now that the sky is bright, the waterhole and the hole are very close, we break out, if they shoot, we have no time to dodge." ”

"What then?" The white blind man frowned and said, "If we don't rush over now, as soon as the water is broken, they will still shoot arrows indiscriminately...... He looked left and right, and said anxiously, "But there is no place to hide here." ”

Chu Huan groaned slightly, without saying a word, turned around to the cave, and the blood drinking knife did not hesitate to cut at a raised rock on the stone wall, this blood drinking knife is worthy of being a treasure knife that sharpens iron like mud, the knife light flashed, and a huge rock fell from the stone wall.

Seeing this, Qiu Ruxue raised his eyebrows, understood something, and said, "My lord wants to use rocks as a barrier?" ”

"Not bad." Chu Huan said: "There are many stones on this mountain wall, they are rushing to cut off the water flow, let's rush to cut stones, it doesn't take many stones, we can use stones to build a stone pile at the entrance of the cave, no matter how powerful their bows and arrows are, they can't always penetrate the stones, right?" As he spoke, he didn't stop, and the blood-drinking knife in his hand slashed down one after another, and rocks fell from the rock wall.

The governor has already started, and several other people naturally can't look at it, not to mention that this is also a matter of life, if the water flow is cut off, you can't pile up a rock barrier at the entrance of the cave, pile up random arrows, and your life is in danger, at that moment the white blind man has rolled up his sleeves, stepped forward to move the rocks and pile them at the entrance of the cave, and the wolf baby also followed closely, Qiu Ruxue looked at the rock wall, and then looked at the cold moon blade in his hand, showing hesitation, and finally shook his head helplessly, and also stepped forward to cut stones.

The rocks on the rock wall, it is impossible for ordinary blades to cut down so lightly, even if there is a sharp and good knife, cut a few stones, the blade will be blunt, but the Cold Moon Blade and the Blood Drinking Knife are both rare and famous knives, and at this time they played their role, the water flow of the waterfall outside gradually weakened, and at this time there was a shout outside, the sound of the waterfall became smaller, but the shout also came: "Chu Huan, you have no way to escape, you know each other, get out now, we won't hurt your life, just take you to meet someone, If we resist, don't blame our men for being ruthless. ”

The four people in the cave didn't pay attention to it at all, two cut rocks, two people built rock barriers, their hands and feet were nimble, and they cooperated tacitly.

At this time, Mr. Hei was standing behind the eight archers, staring at the waterfall, seeing that the water flow of the waterfall was getting smaller, his eyes became excited, and an assassin with a loud voice was standing by the waterhole in front of the archers according to Mr. Hei's explanation at this time, shouting loudly, persuading Chu Huan and the others to come out and surrender quickly.

Mr. Hei had already ordered the eight archers to get ready, until someone came out of the waterfall, and immediately shot mercilessly, he looked up at the rising sun, heard the sound of footsteps, and saw that the assassin with bracers had returned, followed by a dozen people, and when he saw Mr. Hei, the bracers had already said: "Mr. Hei, the upstream is almost intercepted, and it is difficult for Chu Huan and them to fly now." ”

"There are still two hours, and the officers and soldiers of Qingtang County will be able to arrive in two hours at the earliest." Mr. Hei said calmly: "Within two hours, all the things here must be settled, and their heads must be handed over to me to take away, and you evacuate Yan Pingshan, this transaction will be completed, and I will give you the reward you deserve." ”

The bracer under the mask smiled and said, "Mr. Hei, what kind of grudge do you have against this Chu Huan, spending such a big price to take his life?" ”

Mr. Hei glanced at this person coldly, and said lightly: "Our transaction doesn't seem to say that we need to tell you the reason. ”

At this moment, the tall assassin also led a few people over, and when he saw that the waterfall was much smaller, he said triumphantly: "As soon as the water flow is broken, it......'s done!" He clenched his knife and said in a deep voice: "Brothers, listen, when the water is broken, immediately the arrows will be shot in, and all the arrows will be killed with me...... ”

Bracer said angrily: "Kill in? Killed by random arrows, can they still survive? ”

The Assassin standing by the waterhole was still shouting inside, his voice was so loud that the bracers tried to tell him to stop screaming, when he heard a "whoosh", and a feathered arrow flew straight out of the weakened waterfall, and with a "poof", it shot into the man's throat, and the man's screaming stopped abruptly, and his body shook, and he fell headlong into the waterhole in front of him.

All the Assassins were taken aback, and all looked in that direction.
