Chapter 129: Revisiting Aoki Cliff
"We're going to Aoki Cliff again?" Begonia asked with a wink.
"It's not us, it's me." Xie Ruijiao curled his index finger, scratched her nose, and said with a smile: "How can I be willing to let my princess always go on adventures with me?" ”
"If there is no king, where is the princess?" Begonia grabbed his nose-scraping index finger, "I'm going with you, I'm waiting for you on the ground." Now that I know that it is poisonous, I am closer to you, and my heart is more peaceful. What's more, there is such news as Yu Shizi......"
Xie Ruijiao was a little moved, he pulled Begonia into his arms, chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I haven't gotten married yet, how can I give up something?" We're all going to be fine. If you want to go, you can take the frost with you. ”
Since there is something strange and I am afraid of long nights and dreams, it is better to go early and feel at ease!
Early in the morning of the second day, Xie Ruijiao, Yan Shiyi, Tang Yu, and Haitang, with a few guards, hurried to Qingmu Cliff. They didn't have much rest all the way, and in less than half a day, they arrived near Aoki Cliff.
They found the place where the horses were last hidden, and although the grass and trees were now withered and yellow, the dead branches of the shrubs were high enough and dense enough. Frost took out a few grasses for the horse to smell, and the horse stood still. Xie Ruijiao asked worriedly: "If you have to leave temporarily, can this horse be sober?" ”
"It's a medicine that calms animals, not a drug. If you are not at ease, find a sharp object and stab it at the position of the horse's ear, and the stab will recover. Begonia said as she pointed to the acupuncture point on the horse's ears.
A few people went up to the cave in the middle of the mountain. This time I came prepared, Begonia and Ji'er were wearing men's clothes, and it was much easier to act than last time. Ling Xue and Dark Qing went down to investigate, and the rest of the people waited quietly in the cave.
After only a while, Ling Xue and the others returned.
"Just left a group of people, these are going out to replenish food regularly, and now we can't hear any movement below, if we go down now, we can probably have an hour's effort." Dark Blue said. After squatting for three days, they found that the people under the cliff went up and down the cliff regularly, so this time they planned to go down at dawn.
Begonia, Frost, and Fifteen stayed on the ground to respond, and the rest of the men were covered with scarves and slipped down the cliff along the rope.
This time, the face towels they used were specially made of begonias. Last time, I used a piece of ordinary cloth to cover my face, but this time I used six layers of gauze stacked on top of each other, put the medicine on it, and then stitch it around it, and the gauze itself was soaked in an antidote and then dried. Before going down the cliff, Begonia asked them to take the antidote pill in advance. Each person was also given a bottle of medicinal powder, which could be used to drive away poisonous insects and snakes.
After a while, several ropes were loosened one after another, and there was no sound under the cliff, and Begonia knew that they had reached the bottom of the cliff and fell. According to the agreement, Fifteen hurriedly put a few ropes together and hid them behind the leaves of the climbing vines. In this way, even if someone suddenly comes, you can't see that someone has come down the cliff.
This time the descent from the cliff was relatively smooth, the wasp miasma did no harm to them, and when they landed, they had the experience of Yan Shiyi last time, not directly with both feet, but with their feet kicking towards the stone wall, jumping out a few steps away before landing, and there was no trigger mechanism. They worked in pairs and followed the path at the bottom of the cliff to the cave deep in the valley.
Suddenly, Yan Shiyi stopped and grabbed Xie Ruijiao, who was about to walk into the cave, and as soon as the two of them hid against the stone wall, they heard the voices of two men talking inside. One man complained, "What a bad luck! Just when it was our turn to go out to let the wind out, two of them died, and now we have to drag them out to bury them! ”
Another man said: "The pits are all ready-made, and after pushing them down, they didn't let you burn incense and kowtow." Even if we kill two, I don't know how the adults will punish us......"
"Hey! It's okay, these in the prison, if you die, you will die, and the one in the small room will die. Thin people, they have to get more than a dozen of them back in the past two days, and I heard that they are all good people. It's really unlucky, they deserve to be here, they can't live, they don't die......"
The voice slowly got closer, and sure enough, seeing the two men slowly dragging the two corpses out, and when they got out of the hole, Yan Shiyi was lightning and flew out two money darts, and before the two men could snort, their throats were cut off, and blood gushed out, and they fell to the ground sullenly.
Xie Ruijiao and Eleven quickly stepped forward, Yan Shiyi picked up his money dart, wiped it on the man's clothes, and withdrew it into his sleeve. Ling Xue and Tang Yu also arrived, and the four of them dragged the body to the grass and hid it.
Tang Yu squatted down and looked at the two corpses that had been dragged out, and said in surprise: "These two people are so strange!" The skin and flesh were all blue and black, and it was obvious that he had been poisoned for a long time, but looking at the corpse, it was freshly broken...... Moreover, their skin is stiff, and they do not look like ordinary people. ”
Xie Ruijiao had an ominous premonition in his heart: "It's not easy here, after entering the cave, be careful, and try not to have a head-on conflict before finding out the details of them." Saving your life is all that counts. He whispered. After hiding the corpse, several people covered their faces, but still divided into two groups and entered the cave.
Dark Blue and Hatsuichi walked fast. After entering the cave, they found that the top of the cave was full of large and small stone milk protrusions, and the two of them carried light work, with the help of those raised stones, like geckos, upside down against the top of the cave to travel inside.
In the end, there was still a difference between the top of the cave and the ground, and they just missed the two men who were dragging the corpses, following the torches on the cave wall, all the way inside.
Suddenly, the passage became wider, and a dense light appeared in front of it, and the surroundings were bright. By the light of the fire, Dark Blue and Hatsuichi saw the familiar wooden fence, as if they had arrived in a prison. Hearing the footsteps, the two did not dare to move forward, and hid in the shadows with bated breath.
"Anzi, did you feed him today's poison?" A middle-aged male voice asked.
"Not yet. The Heavenly Master said that he could not feed until his nails turned white, but now it is still black, and if he feeds it again, I am afraid that the poison will be heavy, and if this person is poisoned, I can't afford to pay for my life. Another young male voice explained.
"Well, you're still careful. This morning, I found that two more people had died, and we were really blind with so many medicines, and we were still waiting for them every day. Although our Five Poisons Sect is a small sect, we can't be looked down upon by Uncle Guo! If the uprising succeeds this time, we will also have a place in the rivers and lakes. ”
The man named Anzi said with a smile: "Don't worry, I am in a small room, so naturally I can manage it more carefully, if I am in charge of a big prison, there are so many people, where can I take care of it?" Master, do you say that a person who is fed with poison like this can still be a human being? It's scary. ”
"Why aren't you human? Still panting. The master smiled and said, "Anyway, I'll have to wait, let's go, I'll come back after dinner." The two of them talked and left.
Chu Yi looked into the prison from the shadows, and couldn't help but be shocked, and was about to jump down desperately, but was grabbed by Dark Qing and shouted to him in a low voice: "Don't be impulsive!" ”
"Let go of me! The person inside is the son of the world! ”
