Chapter 136: The Contest (3)
I don't know how long I walked, but I still didn't see the end, and the worry between my cold eyebrows deepened. Along the way, it can only be described as barren and lonely, and not even a bird or rabbit has been seen. The trees in the jungle grew thicker and thicker, and it was only extremely cold to be in them.
A scream was heard, breaking the silence in the forest.
Hanxin and his party hurriedly followed the source of the sound.
The figure became clearer and clearer, but the sound became quieter. When they walked in, everyone couldn't help but be surprised.
I saw five or six people trapped in the mud, and they couldn't see their bodies anymore, and the few hands still left on the mud were extremely terrifying.
I'm afraid that after a violent struggle, the quagmire is already muddy, and there is mud everywhere.
And the quagmire seemed to be like a demon's bloody jaw, devouring everything that fell into its mouth.
Everyone watched as the few hands that were still exposed to the air slowly sank into the mire, and their backs were cold.
Han Xin looked along the quagmire, only to see General Xia and Liang Yuan leading a group of armored troops standing opposite, looking at him coldly. There was ridicule, mockery, and more indifference in those eyes. It is clear that they helped themselves to get over the quagmire in the shortest possible time with the deaths of several soldiers.
"General, we've won this time." Liang Yuan was a little happy to see that Hanxin was slow to move.
Unexpectedly, General Xia slapped Liang Yuan in the face with his backhand, and sneered: "Win? General Ben wants him dead. A pair of suddenly poisonous eyes swept over Liang Yuan's body, and finally landed in the direction of the cold heart.
Liang Yuan had followed General Xia for so long, and he had never seen General Xia like this, so he was suddenly a little frightened and trembled.
Just now, Xia Qi used seventy percent of his strength, and Liang Yuan's right face was already swollen. But he did not dare to make a sound.
Seeing that the cold heart could not be passed for the time being, General Xia snorted coldly and continued to move forward with the armored army.
"How are we going to get there?" After turning around, Ge Chen found that there was only one way to move forward, and he seemed to be the only way, and he was suddenly a little frustrated.
Hanxin didn't say anything, just looked around over and over again with a pair of eyes.
It was getting late and the humidity was getting heavier. The forest is no longer quiet. There was a strange sound of rustling, and the listeners felt a chill down their spines.
"Everyone obeys, goes up the tree, and rests! The jungle at night is the most dangerous, it is not dawn and it is absolutely impossible to come down. Tomorrow, I will definitely take everyone out safely. "Chilling words are like candles in the night, bringing a glimmer of light and hope to the soldiers. Everyone did it right away.
Ge Chen looked up at the big trees, the trunks were straight, and the branches and leaves were luxuriant, but they were covered with dew, and asked again uncertainly: "Are we really going to be monkeys tonight?" ”
Hanxin jumped into the tree, found a place to sit reluctantly, and stopped, "If you don't want to be a monkey, then go to eat jackals, tigers and leopards!" ”
Before the words fell, he heard a wolf howl from the jungle, which frightened Ge Chen and climbed the big tree without saying a word.
The night grew darker and darker, and finally turned to black.
Although he rested, no one dared to sleep, and they all rested against the trunk of the tree.
Han Xin took out from his bosom what Dongfang Sheng left him yesterday, which was a jade pendant with a clear body and no flaws. Although it is a jade pendant, it is hot to the touch, and the shape is very strange, like a wolf's head, but it has four fangs, a tiger's head and a dragon's mouth, which is really unheard of.
Han Xin fiddled with it in his hand for a while, but he didn't see the reason, so he simply lost interest, so he put it away.
"Oh, here you go!" I don't know when Ge Chen climbed to the tree where Hanxin was and handed over a bottle.
Hanxin looked at the kettle in his hand, but faintly smelled a burst of wine, "At this time, you even have wine with you!" ”
Hearing the chilling words, Ge Chen's eyes were full of meaning, "Don't be too moved!" Hello young master, you haven't found out yet! As he spoke, he shook the flask and put it in Hanxin's hand again.
Hanxin no longer shirked, raised his hand that was a little stiff from the cold, picked up the wine jug steadily, and took a big sip, although it was a little choking, but it was suddenly warm. Just like Ge Chen's smile, although it is ugly, it can make people feel warm.
"Chilling, you said that we are also in a life and death tribulation!" Ge Chen saw the chill and laughed.
Coldly nodded, and looked at Ge Chen with disgust: "My son is actually in life and death with you, shouldn't there be a peerless beauty or something by your side at this time!" In this way, after the tribulation, you will be able to make a promise! ”
Unexpectedly, Ge Chen was not happy, "With the appearance of you falling down in the wind, you still expect a beautiful woman to promise you, don't dream." As he spoke, he slowly reached out and gently pulled his cold and frozen hand over, put it to his lips, and breathed hard.
"It's not cold! I see your hands are already red from the cold. As he spoke, he clenched his grip again and gave him a few more strokes.
Seeing Ge Chen's movements, his cold eyes were hot, but the joke turned into a sentence of "Thank you!" ”
In this icy night, a wisp of warmth at hand is worth a thousand words.
The two chatted with each other, and the long night gradually shortened, getting closer and closer, and finally turned into a glimmer of light on the horizon.
Early in the morning, Hanxin and Ge Chen cut down several big trees. Hanxin threw the tree into the quagmire, and found that the tree was sinking a little slowly, so if it was fast enough, it might be possible to jump over the tree completely sinking into the quagmire.
Hanxin also ordered the soldiers to cut down a lot of rattans, just in case, to tie the rattans to their bodies, if the mud is halfway through and the big tree sinks in, they can throw the rattans ashore with all their might, and the people on the shore will catch the pull of the rattans and pull them up from the mud.
The light skill of the chilling heart is very powerful, so with the help of the thrust of the big tree, he successfully jumped over. The soldiers behind followed in turn.
After two hours, everyone finally reached the other side of the quagmire.
This quagmire seems to be the watershed of the jungle. When you pass, it's as if you've arrived at another world.
There is no fog, no trees that hide the sky. What catches your eye is the scene of green grass and red flowers.
Looking at such a beautiful scenery, I was cold but not appreciative, and the killing intent in my eyes suddenly appeared.
"Come out!"
Before the words fell, I saw Xia Qi slowly walking out from the side with a big knife in his hand, followed by Liang Yuan, who was expressionless.
"Wait all night! You can be patient. Hanxin smiled at the corner of his mouth and teased.
Xia Qi looked at the smile on the corner of his cold mouth, and only felt extremely dazzling, "Do you know what's under this quagmire?" ”
"There are thousands of bone-eating loaches! With only half a pillar of incense, even a tiger will be eaten up. If you fall into it, you will only use half a pillar of incense. Xia Qi said slowly, as gently as he was recounting a trivial matter.
"General Xia can't wait to get rid of me? Are you scared? Or are you worried about falling into the quagmire and being eaten away? Chill replied unhurriedly.
Unexpectedly, General Xia smiled coldly: "Such articulate, no wonder Dongfang Sheng is so different from you." However, no matter how powerful you are, today the old man will let you and the bat army you have carefully cultivated all die here. Before the words fell, the armored army immediately set out, and instantly surrounded the cold heart group.
