323 Escaped

After three days at the end of the day, Bu Ye had to use a whip to wake up those drunken guys from their hangovers and urge them to prepare for their return trip.

Because of the abundant water source, Shilinzhai is rich in all kinds of snails and shellfish in the underworld, which is an excellent ingredient. In order to avoid running empty, Bu Ye bought a lot of dried snail meat and dried scallops according to the plan set for him by Teng Boli, and filled the backs of more than a dozen large snails after packing.

In addition, all the money from the sale of medicinal materials was also handed over to Bu Ye for safekeeping, which was packed in two large money bags. In fact, that is the goods that need to be protected the most, you must know that the income of the Teng family firm from this trip is all in it, and there can be no sloppiness on the return trip.

After a few days of decadence, everyone suddenly lost the vigilance they had when they came, and began to become lazy and lazy, and sometimes they couldn't even walk in line. Bu Ye was very annoyed and wanted to beat people again, but such a temper not only had little effect, but also hurt morale.

I walked for five days, and before I knew it, I was halfway back. It stands to reason that the closer you are to Zuoqiu City, the safer it is, but psychologically, the easier it is to relax. And this state is the most dangerous time.

On the sixth day, the caravan came to a large area of tidal flats. Several streams converge and then split again, leaving only a few gravel fields and boulders as islands where they can stay, ranging from a few meters to a dozen meters apart.

Because there is no light source in the underworld, and the ghost fire cannot illuminate the underwater situation, who does not know the depth of the underground river, let alone dare to wade through the water rashly. As a result, caravans had to rely on a few small bridges made of giant stalagmites to connect several isolated islands, and they had to cross a bridge after a while.

In order to make it easier for later generations to see the location of the bridge, there were also people who thoughtfully inlaid a fluorescent stone at the end of each bridge. Looking in the endless darkness underground, the zigzag fluorescence is like the Beidou in the night sky.

The formation of the caravan became more fragmented at this time, and Bu Ye did not have a good way to deal with this kind of terrain, so he could only urge everyone to pass quickly.

Because the line was so long, it was often when Buye, who was at the front, began to step on a new bridge, and I walked in the middle of the bridge behind me, while the large army in the middle was stagnant on an isolated island formed by boulders or gravel ground, looking very bloated.

"Hurry up! Hurry up! ”

Bu Ye kept turning back and urging in front. He yelled anxiously: "Don't drag your feet on the people behind!" Let's keep up with Lao Tzu! ”

But no matter how anxious he is, it is useless, whether it is a person or a big snail, it is difficult to walk fast in this kind of place. Especially when queuing up to get on the bridge, there will inevitably be temporary congestion.

I was actually nervous, too easy to be ambushed near this kind of terrain. I followed the example of Bu Ye, and from time to time I would throw a few ghost fireballs behind me to observe the situation behind me. Fortunately, nothing unusual has been found.

But I'm really afraid of something! The anomaly still happened, not in the front of the line or in the back, but in the middle of the most "safe"!

"Wow! Wow! ”

"Whoa!"

While everyone was still paying attention to the road under their feet, more than a dozen splashes erupted from the water next to them. The ghosts appeared, and it turned out to be more than a dozen fierce and vicious ghosts!

"Kill!"

"Ah......h

Those ghosts all had sharp weapons in their hands, and they were already shooting before we had time to figure out the situation. Carrying a knife and a gun, he stepped forward directly to attack, and two people couldn't react and died on the spot!

I've always been a sword and shield when I'm broken. So when a ghost jumped up in the water on the right side and attacked me, I raised my shield in time to block it, and when it couldn't fall in time, I cut it in two with a knife. The ghost screamed and fell back into the water.

"It's a ghost bandit! It's a ghost bandit! Someone shouted in horror.

Trouble! I actually encountered an ambush by ghost bandits here, I'm afraid that today is more than lucky!

The first wave of attacks was barely blocked, and the large forces that were ambushing us finally appeared. Dozens of ghosts suddenly appeared from a distance behind me, rushing at me with all kinds of weapons in their hands. At the same time, Bu Ye was also shouting in front: "Lean to the middle!" Lean in the middle! ”

It seems that there is an ambush ahead!

The caravan was in chaos, and everyone panicked and desperately moved closer to the middle according to Buye's words. In the middle is a small island formed by a pile of rubble, with a bridge in front and a bridge, and water on the left and right, which is the only favorable terrain we can occupy now.

I teamed up with another dart master to defend the bridge behind me, resolutely preventing the ghost bandits from rushing over. Some ghosts want to float directly from the water, but then they have no place to borrow their feet, and when they fight, they will "plop" backwards and fall into the water, which does not pose much of a threat to us.

After barely holding the head and tail, the middle team gradually stabilized its position. Bird meat also played the role of the veteran team member at this time, commanding the guys and ghost servants in the middle to bring the big snail together, while the dart masters relied on the big snail to protect their backs, so that they could deal with the attack from the water wholeheartedly, at least for the time being.

But at this moment, the unexpected happened again!

"Whoa!"

"Yikes! It's empty underneath! ”

Suddenly the middle of the rubble pile collapsed, and a small hole appeared!

Caught off guard, several dart masters, buddies, and ghost servants standing in the middle of the team, along with the dozen or so big snails, all fell in, and they were still squeezed together and couldn't move. It turns out that these ghost bandits have already dug traps and ambushed us below, just to squeeze us into the middle and catch them all. It's just that Bu Ye and I reacted fairly quickly at the end of the end and seized the advantageous position at the bridgehead, so that the whole army would not be wiped out.

But the situation is becoming more and more critical for us. I was outnumbered in the back, and the short knife didn't play the role of a group fight at all, but when I stabbed a ghost bandit in the head, it grabbed it tightly with its hand. I couldn't pull it back in my eagerness, so I had to let go. In addition, my helmet was knocked off, my armor was torn in many places, and I suffered several minor injuries on my body.

I took out a wishful chopstick and turned it into a spear, and continued to defend with the shield wok. But he secretly cried out in his heart: "Is it that I am going to die here today?" ”

"Look here! Look here! ”

Suddenly, a voice shouted. It's Buye!

At the same time as the shout came out, a green glimmer appeared above everyone's heads, which was very strange. What's that?

The people and ghosts on both sides of the war were stunned, and they all paused and looked up together.

! That's a lot of yin elements!

Bu Ye actually threw a big money bag high into the air, and at least thousands of Yin Yuan spilled out of the money bag, like a heavenly maiden scattering flowers. In the end, under the stunned eyes of everyone, the money bag fell into the pit impartially, and thousands of Yin Yuan were scattered on the big snail and the person who was crushed by them.

"The money and goods are here! I don't want it! It's all for you! ”

Bu Ye shouted again, and then took advantage of the fact that the ghost bandit in front of him was also looking at Yin Yuan in a daze, and he was drilled over and ran away!

As the leader of the team and the backbone of everyone, he actually escaped from the battle like this!

All the dart masters gasped. Bu Ye obviously gave up his wealth to save his life, and at the same time wanted the rest of the people to be cannon fodder and substitute for the dead ghosts, covering himself to run first. It turns out that he, an old immortal caravan, has been able to survive every time for so many years, and he relies on this trick at a critical time!

And everyone knew that he just threw out a money bag, which could not hold all the money at all. In other words, he still wants to abscond with the rest of the money!

Everyone was furious and scolded Bu Ye, a conscienceless pit bastard. But those ghost bandits didn't care about this, and when they saw that there were Yin Yuan on the ground, they rushed up to attack us even more desperately, and they wanted to grab those scattered Yin Yuan by the way.

In desperation, Bird Meat also opened his throat and shouted, "Everyone runs separately!" Take care of your own life! ”

The dart masters, who were already lost dogs, no longer had the intention of fighting at this time, and desperately just wanted to break out of the encirclement and go in any direction. Some people tried to escape by wading through the water in a panic, but accidentally stepped on the air and fell into the ditch. Even if you don't drown, you will be hacked to death by the ghost bandits in the water.

I was originally broken, but there were so many ghost bandits on the bridge behind me that I couldn't escape to the rear. And there are streams on both sides, but the place guarded by Buye in front looks a little empty.

So, I abandoned my defensive position in the rear, jumped on the back of the big snail in the pit, and jumped again over the whole caravan and ran to the front. The three big ghosts discovered my intentions and ran to stop me with knives. I didn't slow down, I hid my body behind the shield, jumped up and hit it hard.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! ”

All three weapons were slashed at the shield, but they didn't hurt me in the slightest. The three ghosts were knocked away by me and fell into the water screaming in pain. As soon as I rolled on the ground, I got up again and ran quickly across the small bridge in front of me. A few unwilling ghost bandits also followed me and tried to chase me.

Running is also one of my strengths, especially when I'm on the run!

Soon, I not only widened the distance between me and the ghost bandit behind me, but also saw the back of Bu Ye in front of me. This old immortal can run fast, no wonder he can get out of this desperate situation every time.

Bu Ye turned around and saw that it was me when he ran, and his face was ruthless. When he ran across another small stone bridge, he suddenly felt something in his hand and threw it directly under his feet. It appeared to be a projectile, but when it landed on a small bridge made of stalagmites, it shattered, splattering an inexplicable pool of liquid.

I didn't understand what he meant by throwing the projectile, and jumped up the bridge after him after a few seconds. But at this time, I felt that my feet were soft, and the stone bridge was actually broken!

I'm going to fall into the water!
