Chapter 81: The Swamp

The Yuechengling Mountains stretch across many areas of Guilin, with most of the peaks around 1,500 meters above sea level.

At noon, the four of them arrived at the river, there was a bamboo raft staying by the river, and there was a person sitting on it, and when he saw Jinyang, he said excitedly: "Let me introduce to you, he is Li Xingran, my assistant, this time the equipment is all prepared by Xingran, Xingran, this is my junior sister Lu Shuiyi, Zhao Ruozhi and Sha Dutian." He introduced them one by one.

The two sides greeted each other, even if they knew each other, Sha Dutian could see at a glance that Li Xingran was not a simple person, compared with touching Jinyang, Li Xingran was much more reliable, but he understood that the more such a person, the deeper the city.

Sha Dutian had already seen the luggage on the bamboo raft, and he pointed to the bamboo raft and asked, "Could it be that where is the guy who prepared it?" Li Xingran nodded.

Sha Dutian stepped on the bamboo raft with one foot, the bamboo raft sank down slightly, and there were ripples around it, Sha Dutian's body shook for a while, he didn't dare to move his steps, it is estimated that he has never taken a bamboo raft in his life, he said: "Lao Yang, this bamboo raft will not fall apart, right?" ”

Touching Jinyang said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's strong." He walked up gently, and the bamboo raft instantly sank down again, and Sha Dutian shouted: "Oh, yes, it's going to sink the ship, Lao Yang, what are you preparing?" His actions made the others happy.

Lu Shui stood up one by one, and then Zhao Ruozhi and Li Xingran both got on the bamboo raft, Li Xingran picked up a bamboo pole in his hand, held it to the bottom of the water, and with force in his hand, the bamboo raft began to row forward.

Near the water and far away mountains, it is very poetic, many mountains are located in the river, the green mountains are green, and the river is long. Wouldn't it be better if you could have a fishing boat and sing softly?

Sha Dutian was not interested in this kind of leisure and elegance at all, this would have been used to the rhythm of the bamboo raft, he asked Jin Yang, "Lao Yang, the place you said will not be in the water, right?" ”

Touching Jinyang said: "How can you see it? ”

Sha Dutian looked at the water under his feet, he felt incredible, he felt that this bamboo raft would fall apart at any time, and before he could say anything, he heard Zhao Ruozhi say: "Lao Yang, don't listen to his nonsense, by the way, the place shown on the map seems to be ahead, what is the place there?" ”

Looking at the green mountains and green waters, Touching Jinyang was not only in awe of nature, he said: "There is a swamp ahead, and it will be much closer from there. ”

Sha Dutian jumped up, he regretted it as soon as he jumped up, the moment he landed on the bamboo raft, the water under the bamboo raft splashed, and the bamboo raft shook for a while, fortunately Li Xingran controlled it well, he didn't feel embarrassed, and said: "Swamp? Then don't we go in and look for death? ”

Zhao Ruozhi shook and almost fell into the water, but fortunately, Lu Shuiyi helped him on the side, and he said: "Lao Sha, did you mean it, since Lao Yang chose this path, there should be a way to get in, don't be surprised." ”

Touching Jinyang said with a smile: "What my brother said is right, I do have a way to get in, and you will know when you get there." ”

Sha Dutian said to himself: "Pretend to be mysterious, just say no." ”

An hour later, the five of them finally arrived at the shore, and after getting off the bamboo raft, Sha Dutian was stunned there, only to see a meadow in front of him, and he couldn't see the edge at a glance, and it was estimated that this was the swamp that Jinyang said.

Sure enough, touching Jinyang pointed to the grass and said, "This is the swamp, as long as you pass through this swamp, you can reach the Lianjie Mountain." Hey? ”

There were some traces of trampling on the swamp, and Jin Yang was surprised, Zhao Ruozhi asked, "Lao Yang, what's wrong?" What did you find? ”

Touching Jinyang squatted down and looked at it for a long time, and said to himself incredibly: "How can anyone be faster than us?" Who is it? Pointing to the trampled grass, he said, "You see, someone has gone ahead of us." ”

Zhao Ruozhi also saw the traces of being trampled on, and said strangely: "What's going on, doesn't it mean that only we know here?" ”

Li Xingran next to him looked calm, as if the matter here had nothing to do with him, Sha Dutian didn't care who went in first, he hurriedly said: "It doesn't matter what kind of birdman he is, we can't lag behind." His meaning was obvious, that is, the treasure inside could not be obtained by others first.

Touching Jinyang fell into deep thought, he suspected Lu Shuqing, but he knew very well that Lu Shuqing could not arrange another group of people to come in, so what was his purpose? He looked at Li Xingran next to him, Li Xingran's expression was not nervous at all, he couldn't see why, just when he was guessing who it was, Lu Shuiyi said: "Senior brother, aren't you scared and don't dare to go in?" ”

Touching Jinyang stood up and said: "Senior sister, now that someone is one step ahead of us, it seems that they also have a roadmap to enter, alas, the situation is getting more and more complicated, let's go." ”

Looking at the vast grassland, Zhao Ruozhi asked, "Lao Yang, this is a swamp, how can we get in?" His question was exactly what everyone wanted to ask, and as soon as he asked it, everyone looked at Jinyang.

Touching Jin Yang took out a handkerchief from his pocket, the handkerchief was embroidered with dense routes, he said: "There are many places in the swamp that are physical, I have personally tested it before, as long as you don't go the wrong way, you can naturally pass, remember, after we go in for a while, everyone must not act without permission, otherwise don't blame me for touching Jin Yang ruthlessly." His words were heavy.

Everyone here understood that the swamp was extremely dangerous, and they all nodded slightly. Touching Jinyang looked at the trampled dry grass, only to see that although the dry grass was decayed, the torso was very tenacious, and now it was just early spring, and the tender grass had just emerged, and it was impossible to compete with the dry grass of the previous season. touched Jin Yangyi, gritted his teeth and stepped out.

The swamp was very wet, but the path chosen by Jin Yang was very hard, and it seemed that the thick mud would not be stained when stepping on it.

The five of them walked for about an hour, and they were about to walk out of the swamp, when suddenly, a hand reached out on the grass in front of them, and dragged the dead grass next to them.

Touching Jinyang stopped, looking at the situation, the man was already stuck in the swamp, maybe he regretted coming here before he was flooded by the swamp.

"Hey, look, what is this?" Zhao Ruozhi said, he carefully picked up an object from the grass.

I saw that the thing was a small wooden sign, and there were two words written on the front of the sign - dark world, Zhao Ruozhi turned the sign upside down, and a string of unintelligible language was written on it.

"Mentally retarded, what is that?" Sha Dutian asked.

"I don't know, maybe it's what it is." Zhao Ruozhi said, he looked ahead, maybe it wasn't necessarily the black box waiting for him there.

Li Xingran stared at the helpless hand, he understood that this person must not be the person of the cloud drifting shadow, but who could they be? He fell into deep thought.

Touching Jinyang said: "Don't care who he is now, we have to hurry through this meadow, anything can happen here." Originally, according to his own plan, only a few of them entered the Bee Tomb, but now it seems that things are not so simple.

Suddenly, touching Jin Yang's feet slipped and staggered, Zhao Ruozhi happened to be by his side, he grabbed Zhao Ruozhi's arm, Zhao Ruozhi was defenseless, was pulled by him, and fell to the grass next to him.

It happened suddenly, and Sha Dutian didn't have time to react, he shouted: "I'm by... What the situation... mentally retarded..."

Because of borrowing a little force, touching Jin Yang stabilized his body, but Zhao Ruozhi was not so lucky, the moment he was pulled by Jin Yang, his body lay on the grass uncontrollably, and the mud on the grass began to invade his whole body, he obviously felt the coldness invade his skin, and before he could react, his body began to sink down.

"Brother, brother, it's all my brother's fault, the grass was too slippery just now, I'll find a way to save you." Touching Jin Yang, he pulled Zhao Ruozhi's body with his hand.

The suction power of the swamp was not something that could be compared to the power of touching Jin Yang, and doing so would only make Zhao Ruozhi sink faster.

Li Xingran saw the clue, and he said loudly: "If you still want to live, don't struggle first." He didn't want to touch Jin Yang's trick to succeed, Sha Du next to him was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, it was obvious that he didn't know how to save himself in the swamp, Lu Shuiyi also frowned, indicating that it was also a difficult thing for her to fall into the swamp, but touching Jin Yang was very active in saving Zhao Ruozhi.

Sha Dutian yelled: "Damn, don't pull it when you touch Jinyang, mentally retarded, you stay calm." Touching Jinyang's pretending to be anxious, his face instantly became puzzled, and Sha Dutian continued: "Listen to what this little brother has to say." At the critical moment, Sha Dutian's judgment was still correct, and when he saw Li Xingran, he understood that this person would never go to the ancient tomb for no reason, and he must have a unique skill.

I only heard Li Xingran say: "This is a swamp, the more you struggle, the faster you can sink into it, you now try to slowly lift your legs to the surface of the mud, remember, don't be in a hurry, take your time." ”

Fortunately, Zhao Ruozhi kept calm, he clearly heard Li Xingran's words, and he tried hard to lift his leg out.

Zhao Ruozhi felt as if his legs were firmly sucked, he didn't dare to be careless, and raised his legs little by little, although his hands would sink down a little in the process of lifting his legs, but his hands would not be completely submerged.

Everyone sweated for Zhao Ruozhi, for fear that there would be some heresy, and finally, one of Zhao Ruozhi's legs was exposed.

With experience, Zhao Ruozhi gritted his teeth and began to raise his other leg, his hands clutching the dead grass, just like the only hand left next to him.

Suddenly, Zhao Ruozhi felt that he had stepped on something, maybe something touched his leg, his heart was cold, and he thought, "There won't be monsters in this swamp, right?" At this time, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, but they couldn't see it at all.

Zhao Ruozhi's body pounced forward slightly, the force was not very strong, and the remaining leg was exposed, and Sha Dutian grabbed Zhao Ruozhi's arm in an instant and pulled him out.

"Run." Zhao Ruozhi said with a frightened expression.

Everyone didn't understand what was going on, but it could be seen from Zhao Ruozhi's expression that he was very scared, and everyone thought that he must have been scared stupid.

Suddenly, a vine stretched out from the swamp, and everyone was surprised.
