Roland knelt on one knee, staring at the slightly trembling rope, his face extremely solemn. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

After a long time, the rope stopped shaking and seemed to relieve the pressure.

"What's going on?" The dwarf couldn't help but mutter, "Did that half-vampire chick end up in the end, or did she fall in an accident?" I can't see anything in this black rumbling, it's really worrying! ”

"Shut your crow's mouth!" Lyudmila gave him an angry look. Although she has an instinctive fear of Veronica, she is in the same boat at the moment, so she naturally hopes that she is safe.

Roland didn't speak, holding his breath and waiting for news.

At this moment, the rope suddenly tightened again, whipping against the almost vertical rock wall with a crisp "pop".

Then came the second and third sounds...... Until the ninth sound, after which the rope regained its calm.

"What does that mean?" Lyudmila frowned.

Roland raised his hand to signal her to remain silent, still listening intently.

After about ten seconds, the rope fluctuated again, slapping against the rock wall, this time a total of three times before falling silent.

Roland breathed a sigh of relief, turned to Bloom and Lyudmila and said, "According to the signal from Roni, the entrance of the cave is about nine hundred and thirty feet from the bottom. ”

"Nine hundred and thirty feet? OMG! Bloom fell back with his head in his hands, almost stunned.

"More than 900 feet deep, that is, more than 300 meters......" Lyudmila quickly calculated and wondered: "This distance is not too far, we can hear her shouting below, why use such a troublesome way to transmit the news." ”

"Ronnie is shouting at the bottom of the pit, and if you want to keep your voice up to the mouth of the well, not only can we hear it, but the monsters that inhabit the underground world will also be alarmed, and you guess they will swarm and throw a big welcome party for us?" Roland teased with a smile.

Lyudmila blushed and said no more.

Roland patted her on the shoulder, "It's your turn next, follow Ronie's example and send a signal later." ”

Lyudmila was still a little upset: "Why is the second one me?" I don't want to be alone with a half-vampire in a dark pit. ”

"No way, I'll have to stay and convince Bloom to cheer up." Roland pointed to the dwarf behind him who was lying on the ground moaning, "As you can see, our dwarven friend has the disease of 'hanging in the air and dying'. ”

Lyudmila said angrily: "He has a lot of problems!" There's no need to talk nonsense with him, just kick it down. ”

Roland shrugged: "Let's not mention whether you will hurt the feelings of your teammates by doing this, personally, I don't mind spending half a night with a half-vampire girl in a dark pit, and Ronnie will probably think it's a good idea, so I'll go first." ”

"Wait!" The female ranger seemed to have a spring on her buttocks, and jumped up at once, "It's better for you to stay and convince Bloom, goodbye!" Before she could finish speaking, she jumped down the well and slid down the rope.

Roland was secretly amused, watching Lyudmila's figure disappear at the end of the darkness, he turned to Bloom's side, patted the dwarf on the back and comforted him warmly: "My friend, do you feel better?" ”

The dwarf waved his hand with difficulty, and his voice was weak: "Brother Roland, forgive me for being too sick to continue my adventures with you. ”

"But you were obviously in good spirits just now?"

"That's because I didn't know how deep the hell pit was!" Bloom turned over, his face full of sadness, "I'm used to a down-to-earth life, I'm not afraid to climb thousands of peaks, but I can't bear to hang in the air and can't reach the world, that's terrible!" ”

Roland sighed, "My poor friend, in that case you stay and take care of the livestock, by the way, empty your backpack, and if I find treasure in the underground ruins, I will remember to fill a bag of gold coins and bring it back to you." ”

"Treasure! Gold! Bloom's face immediately returned to blood, he sat up, took Roland's hand and asked, "Brother, is there really a treasure in the underground ruins?" ”

Roland smiled slightly: "Who knows, this kind of thing has always been seen to be believing, hearing is false." ”

"Seeing is believing......" The dwarf tugged at his beard, his face tangled.

Roland continued: "Whatever the harvest of this trip, my friend, there is something to be said ahead, our team has always pursued the principle of more work and more rewards, and since you miss this treasure hunt, you will have to be at the end of the queue to distribute the treasure. ”

"Oh, that's cruel!" The dwarf cried out in pain.

"Who's to say it isn't, and we have to plan for the worst: if we encounter Nero and others on the way to the treasure hunt, because our team is absent from a strong warrior, and we lack the man who has the final word, there is a huge disparity in the strength of the enemy and us, and we can only watch the other party take the treasure but are powerless to stop it, so that we end up empty-handed, don't be too disappointed."

"No, no, no! I'm going to be disappointed! The "man who made the final decision" jumped up, his face full of indignation: "This is unforgivable! I can't tolerate that! ”

Thinking of the golden treasure, Bloom doubled his courage and strode to the mouth of the well.

"Hey, Bloom, doesn't it matter if you're sick?" Roland asked with a smile as he leaned on the well.

"It's alright...... Minor injuries are not in the line of fire, I can still hold on! The dwarf slid down the rope.

"That's good, I wish you all the best." With a wave of his hand, Roland turned and walked over to the stone pillar, untied the reins of the ferocious boar and the horse, and let them enjoy a few days of free time in the woods.

At this time, a dwarf's trembling call came from the well: "Brother Roland, don't go away, come and talk to me......"

"What's wrong?"

"No, nothing, if no one is talking to me to distract me, I can't help but look down...... Moradin is on top, my head is dizzy! ”

Roland couldn't help but smile bitterly, the poor dwarf was really afraid of heights.

At the bottom of the pit, Lyudmila kicked the pebbles in boredom, looked up at the shaking rope, and said impatiently: "Even a snail should climb down, how long will that stupid Bloom rub off!" ”

Veronica leaned against the stone wall, crossed her arms over her chest, and said with a smile, "Why don't we go first and explore the way ahead, it's better than being bored and waiting here." ”

"Forget it, Roland told us not to act on our own."

"Sister Mira seems to care about Mr. Roland." The half-vampire girl smiled but didn't smile.

Lyudmila's cheeks were hot, and she said angrily: "So what, after all, he is our leader!" If you don't listen to him, will you listen to you? As she spoke, she lit the torch and stuck it hard against the wall.

The light dispels the darkness and brings some warmth, but Veronica jumps nervously and up her ears to look around.

Lyudmila couldn't help but laugh and teased: "Half-vampires are also afraid of light? ”

"Shhhh

Countless scarlet eyes lit up in the deep pit, and the piercing screams came and went, making people's scalps tingle.
