Chapter 237: Parchment Scroll
Through unremitting efforts, Hua Rou and Tang Xiao have climbed to a place one foot away from the edge of the cliff.
At this moment, their foreheads were sweaty, and their physical strength was insufficient, especially Tang Xiao, the clothes on their right arm and right leg had been stained red with blood, and their whole bodies were shaking violently like strips of cloth in the wind.
"Hold on a little longer, we're coming." Hua Rou frowned, and cheered him up worriedly and anxiously: "Come, a ...... 2. ......"
Tang Xiao gritted his teeth and insisted on trying to move forward, but the arrows that kept shooting from inside the stone gate were still raging and harassing, this time, he was very unlucky, the arrows came towards his body, and he had to swing sharply to dodge.
As a result, the dodge was evaded, but the person no longer had the physical strength to grab the iron rope!
He fell, suspended entirely from the rope attached to the flower.
Hua Rou's physical strength is actually far inferior to Tang Xiao, and she is also very tired at the moment, but this sudden situation, because the weight of the two is different, Hua Rou is almost pulled onto the iron cable!
If she hadn't reacted quickly and grabbed the iron cable, at this moment, I was afraid that she would have fallen into the abyss with Tang Xiao.
Hua Rou clung to the iron rope, gritted her teeth and worked hard to resist the traction force brought by Tang Xiao's fall: "I ...... Pull you...... Come up! ”
Hua Rou gritted her teeth and tried her best to roll her body down to the other side of the iron cable, she wanted to borrow the fulcrum to fight against that power, but at this time, Tang Xiao looked at Hua Rou's situation, and touched her waist without hesitation.
"Don't drag! You're lying on it! Get on your stomach! Listen! After you pass, you will go to the grotto, there is a medicine and poison array inside, and there is a Tang Sect master inheritance in the array, and the Tang Sect will ...... in the future."
Tang Xiao's eagerness to explain made Hua Rou realize that something was wrong, she looked down and saw that Tang Xiao was actually untying the rope on her waist, and immediately shouted: "If you dare to untie the rope, I will jump down!" ”
Tang Xiao was stunned.
"Tang Xiao! I won't give up on you, and you won't let me ...... I owe you my life! ”
After Hua Rou finished shouting hard, she no longer tried to pull Tang Xiao back on the iron cable, nor did she roll down, but just tried her best to maintain the same state, hanging Tang Xiao, and climbing the iron rope with both hands to move forward with difficulty!
Yes, no!
Inch by inch, like the wriggling of a caterpillar, she moved with difficulty, to the edge of the cliff!
At this moment, Tang Xiao, who was falling below, watched Hua Rou grit her teeth and move with difficulty, with admiration and apology in her eyes.
"Thank you."
"You've saved me so many times...... Now if you really feel sorry for me, ...... Hold on! ”
Hua Rou struggled to move forward, the sweat on her forehead dripping down in large pieces, and her hands turned white and bloodless because of excessive force.
She clenched her molars and pressed forward, her eyes not fearful, only determined.
I can do it! I'll definitely be able to!
Hua Rou was tenacious and worked hard, Tang Xiao looked at Hua Rou below, and her eyes became more and more enthusiastic.
As they moved, the distance was shortening, but they had been spending too much time on the ropes, and the ropes were rubbing against them, and with the weight of the two of them, they had begun to break.
Tang Xiao and Hua Rou both noticed that Hua Rou was getting more and more anxious, and the speed of movement was trying to speed up, but Tang Xiao was very calm, and he even comforted Hua Rou: "Don't be afraid, it's too late!" It's going to be fine, hold on, rest assured, we'll be able to get through. ”
Finally, with Hua Rou's unremitting efforts, they approached the edge of the cliff, and by this time the rope had been sharpened to a thin strand.
Tang Xiao glanced at the rope and shouted, "Hold on to the rope!" Then he raised his hand and swung a palm at the edge of the cliff, and the reaction force of the wind made him swing.
Tang Xiao pulled out the dagger from his waist at this time, and when he swung close to the edge of the cliff, he slammed the dagger into the stone wall, and almost at the same moment, the last strand of rope broke.
"Tang Xiao!" The sudden disappearance of the fall frightened Hua Rou screamed, and when she saw Tang Xiao hanging on the edge of the cliff, she felt that her life was half gone.
Looking at each other, Hua Rou had palpitations, and Tang Xiao smiled calmly.
Hua Rou didn't dare to delay and immediately climbed to the edge of the cliff, then reached out and grabbed Tang Xiao's arm, and finally pulled Tang Xiao onto the edge of the cliff.
Without the danger of their lives, the two of them completely lost their strength and collapsed on the edge of the cliff as if they had no bones, only the gasp sound of a broken bellows.
"Thank you, Blossom."
Hua Rou was so tired that she couldn't open her eyes, so she replied with great difficulty: "Come here...... That's it! ”
Tang Xiao turned his head to look at Hua Rou, his eyes were full of emotion and love.
……
When Honggu took Tang Lei and Tang Shiqi to the door of the main hall, the two of them looked at the corpses in that place, and couldn't help but turn pale, with fear in their eyes.
Honggu stretched out her hand towards the hall at this time: "Family master, Feng master, please." ”
Tang Lei and Tang Shiqi glanced at each other and walked into the hall with a hard head.
In the hall, Grandma sat on the main seat with an expressionless face, and Tang Jiu'er stood beside her, always cold.
"Is the owner well?" Tang Lei was not stupid, and immediately expressed his concern: "I heard that the disciples of the Soul Snatcher Room mutinied, Shiqi and I were very surprised, are you okay?" ”
"Yes, Master, are you hurt?" Tang Shiqi hurriedly followed suit.
Grandma was silent, she stared at the two of them, her eyes sharp, and a somewhat weird smile on her face.
Such silence made the atmosphere in the hall delicate, making Tang Lei and Tang Shiqi uneasy and frightened, but they had to pretend to be calm.
Grandma's fingers moved, and her fingers tapped the handrail again and again, very rhythmically, like a heartbeat.
Tang Shiqi's hands were clenched, and her knuckles were white.
Tang Lei's Adam's apple also moved lightly and swallowed his saliva.
Waiting for the unknown, fearing the unknown, the spirit is like hanging on the blade, it is very tormenting!
"Ten years to sharpen a sword." Grandma opened her mouth and said, "Zhang Lei, you have been preparing for twenty years, and this sword is really not very sharpened!" ”
Zhang Lei, Tang Lei's real name, heard his grandmother call him like this at this moment, a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes, but he knelt on one knee: "Tang Lei is puzzled, why did the master of the door say this?" ”
Grandma sneered and looked at Tang Shiqi: "Lord Feng, thirty-five years ago, when the previous master gave you the surname, do you still remember the oath you said at that time?"
Tang Shiqi's face turned pale: "I swore that I would live and die with the Tang Sect." ”
"Life and death?" Grandma sighed: "I think you want to send the Tang Sect into the hands of others and change your surname...... Meng! ”
When Tang Shiqi and Tang Lei heard this, their eyes flashed with surprise, and Tang Shiqi immediately knelt on the ground: "The door master's words sound strange!" What Meng ...... Our husband and wife have always been loyal to the Tang Sect......"
"Smack!" Grandma patted the armrest and drank: "He Shiqi, do you know who is the person who killed the seventy-two people of your He family?" ”
The sudden change of topic made Tang Shiqi look up at her grandmother in surprise.
Grandma took out a parchment roll from her sleeve pocket and threw it on the ground: "Look for yourself!" ”
Tang Shiqi was puzzled, knelt down and stepped forward to pick it up and read it hurriedly, and then her face gradually changed from stunned to hideous, and then shook her head resistantly: "No, no, this is impossible, this is impossible......"
Grandma looked at Tang Shiqi coldly and snorted coldly: "Impossible? You are grateful to him, but you don't know that your whole family died at his hands......"
