Chapter 191: The Mystery of the Water Cave
There is no salt, pickled can not be, so it is basically not feasible to dry the fish to eat on the way back, and the fish is no longer fresh, even if the fish meat of our meal is baked and seasoned tonight, it is inevitable that there are a few more sour tastes, it is difficult to swallow, in this Xiying City, it is already considered to be the end of the stay, after all, there is no food, life is inconvenient, there are few living creatures around, these problems accumulate together, are a fatal test of survival.
On a desert island, the biggest enemy is still ourselves, hunger, cold, illness, human nature, etc., all originate from ourselves, if we don't pay attention to them, they will become the most feared murderous monsters, and they will kill us at any time.
It's time to leave, or you'll have to be buried here with those wooden people.
Therefore, even though the grilled fish was extremely not fresh, we still swallowed a lot of it raw, tried to store as much food as possible for our stomachs, and then heated up some water, chewed some willow branches, rinsed our mouths and washed our faces, and hurried to sleep more, so that we could travel long distances during the day tomorrow and try to rush back to the post station.
They both went to sleep obediently, and I had some worries, and I was still a little sad to think of the fox fairy beauty, rather than knowing some truth, it was better that it was dead and buried in the ground, and everything was still better than the good impression I left.
But it saved my life, and I also mentioned that they had found the Fox Clan's Yin Erosion Pot and eliminated their natural enemies, and everything was settled.
"I'll just treat you as a fictional person who didn't show up, just a fantasy in my head, goodbye." I muttered, then closed my eyes and forced myself to sleep.
When they woke up, the girls got up early to pick up, the three animal skins were all tied with the linen rope they brought, the stainless steel pot and the military kettle were all brought to the ground, and they went to the backyard to put on the wooden ox stream horse they brought, so as to facilitate the return of the carry, of course, the wine could not be taken away, after all, the wine jar had a year, and I was afraid that it would leak on the road, so I could only pour a full cup with a metal cup, cover it, put it in my backpack, and prepare to take it back to the post station to keep it for thought.
Because the wooden ox and the horse were able to carry the unconscious white dew before, the wooden trough was dismantled, and only three sides remained, and now some things are placed on the top and some can't be rested, so when the things are piled up, I have to get some willow branches, vines and other things to help fix and tie them up, and I also found a scabbard on the weapon rack in this basement, which is also suitable for placing the golden sword, so now I can also wear the sword on my waist, which is much more convenient.
Yun Wen also picked up all the bows and arrows that she could use, and about ten of them were available, which could be regarded as adding some security to the team and more means of defense.
Everything was packed up, Yun Wen was leading the horse in front, Bai Lu was pushing the wooden ox and the horse and many goods on it, because my arm could not be used for a long time, I was equipped with a sword to keep an eye on the side, watching the six roads and listening to the eight directions, and our group really had a sense of immediacy of a dart game.
All the way out from the gate of the north city to the north, to the foot of the Four Seasons Mountain, the side is the water canal roaring, you can smell the fishy smell, it makes people sick, the wooden ox and the horse white dew push up the mountain is more difficult, and so many goods down the mountain are also troublesome, so the first to park here.
"Everyone listen to my arrangement, the so-called up the mountain is easy to go down the mountain, this car is not easy to go up, just send a person to watch not to be taken away by the wild monkeys, I think so, Yun Wen can make bows and arrows, can scare the comers, just stay here, let Sanfu eat more grass, Bai Lu and I hurry up the mountain to survey whether there are any traces of spring in the cave, and see if there is anything to take to the road to eat, how?" I asked.
Bai Lu nodded straight, but Yun Wen frowned slightly, pouted and grabbed my hand, and said coquettishly: "I want to be with you, if there is danger, I can also have a response, I will bow and arrow, maybe I can help you." ”
I smiled and touched her face lightly, she hurriedly covered my hand with her own hand, looked at me expectantly with wide eyes, and I said: "Obedient, your duty is more important now, you can't easily leave your post without permission, this is to help me, okay??" ”
She thought for a moment, as if she thought I was reasonable, smiled sweetly, gave a military salute and shouted, "Yes, si."
! ”
Immediately, Bai Lu was carrying a backpack, and I was about to set off with a sword on my side, and I was about to go up the mountain, and Yun Wen shouted at me: "Come back early!" ”
Bai Lu and I raised our thumbs up at the same time to the sky.
On the hillside, walked uphill for about ten minutes, we reached the top of the mountain, there is no longer the scene when I first came, there is snow everywhere, I specially took Bai Lu to see the place where the nine-tailed white fox is buried, and it has become an empty tomb, or good, it is necessary to engrave the inscription.
Further on, through a small grove of barren trees next to the trees, I could see the cave, and I could see the broken stone gate of the broken arm of Vajra, and now I understood that it was the antelope witch who was shattered by the power of the witch, and I pulled out the golden gate, and the qi was shining, and I carried the white dew into the cave with it.
It's pitch black here, many traces of artificial excavation, and the Taiqiong Cave is somewhat similar, but there is no light, just a dark road, and now there are countless bats hanging upside down on the top to perch and sleep, we can only quietly stroll inside, fortunately it is very simple, just a road to the black, to the end of the road, there are stone steps to go down, I will lead the way in front, Bai Lu is hiding behind me, tightly holding my clothes, so as not to lose it.
When I got to the bottom, I walked a little longer, but I found that my shoes had been soaked with water, and I took a look underground, and found that the road was shallow water, and there were more waterways in front of it. Who can stay in a place full of bats? Therefore, the speculation that Yingchun hid in the cave for refuge was basically broken.
"Let's go, if you go any longer, I'm afraid that the water will be deep, we will definitely have an accident, and besides, you and I both know that this kind of environment can't stay in people." I said to Bai Lu.
Bai Lu sniffed, I could hear her sobbing under the darkness, I understood her, disappointed to despair again and again, this feeling was not pleasant, I could only pat her on the shoulder and give her some strength.
However, at this time, in front of the Black Water Road, a red light suddenly lit up, Bai Lu stopped crying, and I was stunned for a moment, can this kind of place really stay in people?
Bai Lu didn't think much about it, ran in the direction of the red light, and shouted, "Welcome spring!" Girl! Is that you? It's you! I'm your sister, Bai Lu, have you been waiting for me to save you, I'm coming, girl, I'm coming! ”
"Hey, Bai Lu, I haven't figured it out yet, don't run blind!" I hurriedly stepped through the water and rushed towards her.
She didn't seem to hear me, and kept running towards that end, like a demon, I could only chase, but the water on the soles of my feet was getting deeper and deeper, and gradually it was about to overflow my waist, and I couldn't speed up at all, but I saw that Bai Lu had run farther and farther, until I couldn't find her, and then the red light suddenly went out, and it was pitch black and the golden-white light on my sword was restored.
"White dew! Lu! I shouted, but I was about to step on the air after taking another step, and I was shivering with the cold, and I was so timid that I could only continue to shout, but I did not dare to move forward.
She just ran to the vicinity where I was standing and disappeared, so I groped around the cave walls on both sides to see if there were other roads, and at this time I also saw that there seemed to be patterns on the cave walls, this painting was very vivid, so that I didn't need Yun Wen to solve it, I could see one or two, the left painting is the antelope witch hanged, and the feet were tied to huge shackles, and the corpse was thrown into a well-like place, and the last one was a blood pupil, an eye with a strong color.
Strangely, all the soldiers, executors, and sentencers in the pattern have no feet, and the lower body is represented by a few curved lines, and because the expression of the pattern is not understood by ordinary people, the faces of all the people in the pattern seem to be very abstract.
On the other side of the cave wall, there is a line written on it, which is some kind of witch script, but there is another line of translation underneath.
"If the gods and witches are in the world, the curse can be removed, and if you ask how to save it, you can find a borrowed yin pot."
This kind of deceptive words are also translated.
At this moment, there was a sound of treading water from the other end, as if someone was coming...
