"Carney, move, move!" Wei Ya applauded excitedly. Zhou Yu smiled bleakly, this girl is really innocent. If you let yourself laugh, you will never laugh now.

"Carney, we—we're off the ground!" Wei Ya bent over and pointed to the ground and around, running back and forth in the cage and jumping her feet.

"Peace, quiet, don't move!" As soon as the girl ran, the cage lost its balance and swayed violently in the air, which frightened Zhou Yu to stop the operation in his hand in a hurry.

"Find a place and sit down. If you don't want to fall, just listen to me and don't move! The Metropolitan Governor's eyes widened and he said to Wei Ya. The girl stuck out her tongue, knowing that Zhou Yu was not joking with her, so she sat down on the spot, hugged her knees with her hands, and turned her head away from looking at him.

The more you go up, the harder the gears in your hand become. Zhou Yu shook it for about twenty minutes with all his strength to feed, but he couldn't hold on anymore, so he stopped, holding the handle and panting heavily. Alas, what is it? As he collapsed, he encountered an iron hook, somewhat resembling the anchor of a ship. He tried to hook the anchor hook to the handle, and wow! It turned out to be a most primitive insurance buckle.

Hook the handle so that even if the worker releases the handle, the cage will not slip off. It can be seen that the people who designed this hand-cranked lift are not only ingenious, but also thoughtful. Although in the previous life, no one would have taken a second look at this old antique thing, but in this place where Ru Mao drank blood, it could indeed be regarded as high-tech and high-tech.

Stop-and-go, rock-and-rest, I don't know how long it took. Zhou Yu and Wei Ya each ate the dumplings brought by the two little girls, and finally saw natural light shining down on the top of their heads.

When he reached the top of the tower, he seemed to see the hope of escaping. Harder, harder, Wei Ya saw that he was sweating profusely and ran over to help, two big hands and two small hands crossed on the winch, and as Zhou Yu shouted the number of one, two, one and two, the cage quickly rose and left.

When there was a bang, the winch was stuck and couldn't turn, Zhou Yu hooked the safety hook to prevent the two of them from falling into a pulp, pulled Wei Ya up, and looked around. There was nothing around except a hanging ladder that leaned over. Just now he had seen the natural light shining in from several large windows above him. The material of the window is not like glass, but it also seems to be some kind of quartz, which has good transparency and refractive index.

"Come on, I'll jump over first, and then you jump." Zhou Yu glanced at his feet, and it was not an exaggeration to describe it as an abyss, although the suspension ladder was only half a meter away from the door of the iron cage, but the matter of life was not careless.

Taking a deep breath, Zhou Yu jumped over with an arrow step and landed right on the hanging ladder. He patted his chest, turned to beckon to Wei Ya, hunched over and stretched out a hand, signaling her to jump over and catch her. The Metropolitan Governor thought that she needed to help this girl do some psychological construction, but she had to be enlightened for three or five minutes before she dared to grit her teeth and close her eyes and jump over.

But who would have thought that he himself was not ready, and the girl jumped over like a gust of wind, landed on the hanging ladder and hit the palm of the Grand Duke's hand, blinking with her left eye and pursing her lips and smiling.

Zhou Yu smiled and coughed dryly. Alas, I think too much, people are small in the Orion family, can they still be afraid of these climbing ladder handles? In the realm of ten deaths just now, it wasn't the little girl who saved him in a hurry, otherwise this book would have been finished in the second part.

"What are these?" Coming up from the hanging ladder, one large and one small two people entered the top of the tower, which is a pyramidal structure of the conical top, three sides of huge glass are separated from the left, right and back, and what catches the eye is hundreds of sacks, neatly placed. Zhou Yu thought for a while that he had climbed into the grain depot.

What is here, there are still so many and so neat, judging from the sneak attack just now, those three soldiers should be the guards guarding this thing. Zhou Yu was puzzled but clueless, he walked over and slashed open a sack in front of him with a dagger, and a green, pea-sized particle crackled and fell to the ground with a crackling sound.

Another sack was cut in the second row, another one in the third row...

It's all this green particle. Zhou Yu squatted down, picked up a grain and put it in front of his eyes to look at it carefully. The particles are extremely smooth and round-shaped, and when viewed under bright light, they have some honeycomb-like scars in the middle. If the Governor is not mistaken, this is a medicine.

Medicinal herbs, hundreds of sacks of medicinal herbs? Who is it that keeps so many medicinal herbs here? Zhou Yu thought about it and didn't think of an answer. At this time, his confused eyes stayed in front of an iron door in front of him. Quartz windows on three sides, only one in front of oneself, no windows only walls.

and a door.

"Wei Ya, come, help me." The latch was two meters long, and the Governor needed a shoulder to help him on the other side. The two of them finally lifted the latch of the door with all their strength.

With a thud, the alloy latch slammed into the ground. Zhou Yu pushed tentatively, and with a squeak, the iron door opened.

The scene in front of him shocked Zhou Yu. was stunned with him, as well as the little girl Wei Ya.

At this time, the two of them stood between the snow-capped mountains, surrounded by crystal clear and dazzling everywhere. Beneath is an abyss, a large river rushing through the gap in the snow-capped mountains, and for some reason, the surface of the river does not freeze under such low temperatures.

But there were two things that surprised him even more: first, there was a long sliding rod on the other side of the round tower he saw in front of him, that is, on his head now, sticking out twenty or thirty meters and hanging in the air, and a huge steel hook hanging at the end of the sliding rod.

The other thing is what makes him the most incredible. After the collapse of the "ice curtain" just now, the real face beneath it was revealed, the huge dam and the solid concrete, exactly like Kuzsia. The difference is that on top of the huge fortifications, two shiny railroad tracks protrude from the cave in the distance, paved to the center of the round tower, and then pass through to the mouth of another cave a few kilometers away, and disappear.

The sparkling railroad tracks, but the heart of the Metropolitan Governor is cold.

What is it? What about the four horses? I thought that I had climbed up with great effort and would be able to escape from the other side of the round tower, that is, the side where there was no avalanche. The result? A slide rod, two rails, that's all? Is this the end?

Zhou Yuyangtian sighed, knelt on the ground, and began to cry. Wei Ya saw that he was sad, and she also ran over and hugged his thighs and cried. The reason why the Metropolitan Governor is so grief-stricken is not because he will die, but because of the grievance of death, and there is no point in dying. Instead of going through all the hard work to freeze and starve to death here, it is better to be stabbed by the Badan people at the foot of the mountain yesterday and be happy, and bring such a cute little girl to live with him.

Philly, you old fox. When you were dying, you didn't forget to set such a bad trap for me, now you are satisfied. When I get to the underworld...

Wait, Zhou Yu forced himself to calm down. Philip says that the secret of the source of grief is in the Mother River, and the source is in the Destiny Peak. It took me most of the day to review the Destiny Peak from bottom to top, and there was nothing abnormal except for those sacks and particles.

Could it be that the secret she is talking about is those particles? Thinking of this, Zhou Yu turned over and stood up, paced back to the warehouse again, grabbed a handful of particles and held them in front of his cheek.

A man is dying, and his words are good. Although she had cursed others just now, in fact, the Grand Governor didn't think that Fei Li was cheating on herself, and she didn't have that need. Is there such a possibility? Zhou Yu made a hypothesis based on his lack of knowledge of disease, pharmacology, and food safety.

It's not that he's not rich, it's not.

This is the source of sorrow, this is the birthplace of the Milk River, which means that more than 90% of the drinking water of the creatures that thrive in Soracia comes from here. To poison them here, then, is to poison them all. He was sure of that.

If the particles are poison, if the sack is hung on the iron hook of the sliding rod and pushed out with the mouth of the bag facing downward, the particles will fall into the source of the Ruhe River, and then dissolve, dilute, and spread to a tributary, winding in all directions. People who drink the water of the Ruhe River or its tributaries are naturally infected with this poison.

And there is only one antidote to this poison, which comes from the human body itself. Its synthetic secretion must be directed by the brain, and the primer that stimulates the brain to make synthetic instructions comes from a special band. That is, the bell rings – the brain gives instructions – and the body begins to synthesize some kind of enzyme – which neutralizes the toxicity. Without a bell, nothing would have happened, the poison invaded, the host died.

Zhou Yu slapped his thigh, this was the most reasonable explanation he could think of. If everything is as he guessed, then it is natural to explain why Fiskel forgot to ring the bell and was so stiff and powerless to resist; Why did Soracia, from nobles to priests, from generals to lords, have a bell in their hands, and they need to ring the bell three times a day in the morning, noon and evening to worship the water king.

The so-called Rain God Sect is simply a disguise, and bowing to the Water King Li is nothing more than a fake trick. The real mystery lies in the combination of this bell and the poison.

Zhou Yu had to secretly admire the scheming of Shui Wang Li in his heart, on the one hand, he firmly controlled the people of Soracia in his own hands in this way, without a single soldier, without a single shot or bullet, and even the deity did not need to show up, everyone from the bottom to the top was obedient and grovelling; On the other hand, he used his obscenity to develop this "game" of enjoying the right of the first night of adult women of the royal family, and constantly improved the family that had endured endless humiliation for many years from the root and seed. Because of this, there are hundreds of Firi and Phirina who are willing to endure humiliation and bear the burden of humiliation, until finally they are willing to serve him as much as possible.

What a vicious person, Zhou Yu took a sip. Since it looks like he is going to die here, he must not let Shui Wang Li continue to be a blessing and leave a disaster to the world. I don't know what trick he used to trick the villagers of Badan Village into helping him guard the last checkpoint to Destiny Peak; I don't know where he got the guns from these guards.

Since there is fate, let's not miss it. Shui Wang Li, although you and I are destined to save one side, but this beam is deadly.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu took down a torch from the wall, slowly walked to the neat pile of sacks, and threw the torch on it. With a breath, the flames jumped up, and a pungent black smoke rose up, choking Wei Ya and coughing. Zhou Yu took a few steps back, tore off a strip of cloth from his arm and covered Wei Ya's mouth and nose, and simply tied it behind her head, which was regarded as putting a mask on her.

"Carney, why did you burn all this grain?" Wei Ya's voice was still so immature, and in her eyes, the neatly arranged things in the sacks were all food.

"Wei Ya, these are not food, they are poison."

"Poison, how is that possible?"

"Of course, it is possible that there are bad people who deliberately poison them, there are fools who are willing to take poison, and there are even crazy people who know that this is poison and help bad people to deceive and do evil."

"Bad guys, it's really bad!" Wei Ya's small eyebrows furrowed, and she stomped her feet and said. Zhou Yu inadvertently looked down and saw a bell the size of a fingernail tied around her neck, and his heart was about to break.

The fire burned all night before it grew smaller and hundreds of sacks burned down. There was nothing left but a thick layer of black ash. Zhou Yu and Wei Ya snuggled up to the door, their bodies were almost frozen, their lips were purple, and their upper and lower teeth couldn't stop trembling.

"Carney, we—why don't we go back down the mountain?"

"There is no road. You see, the way you came was blocked by an avalanche. And behind us, you have also seen that if you go down, you will be buried in the milk river, and I don't know where it will be washed away or eaten by fish and shrimp. ”

"Are we going to die, then?" The little girl drilled into Zhou Yu's arms, exhaling to warm her palms, and the Metropolitan Governor clearly felt that her body temperature was losing rapidly. Perhaps, I can't hold on for an hour or two.

"There will be death, and everyone will die. It's nothing more than that some people die earlier and some people die later. However, the end line is the same. ”

"Well, if that's the case, I don't regret it. After I die, I will have you by my side anyway, and if you protect me, I will not be afraid. Hey! Wei Ya closed her eyes, her eyelashes gradually coagulated with a layer of white frost, and she never opened them again.

Zhou Yu shook her lightly, but there was no response. Two lines of hot tears welled up from his eyes and dripped down the child's cheeks. Are these tears shed for Viya, for themselves, or for all those who are dead and not yet dead? Zhou Yu himself didn't know.

That's the end of it, okay.

"Woo-woo-woo-" Several loud roars came from a distance, waking up Zhou Yu, who was just about to fall asleep, this sound was so familiar. What is it?

It's the sound of a horn.

Whoop, whoop, whoop! Woo –

Zhou Yu used the last bit of body temperature to hold Wei Ya and stood up, and in the distance, where the morning sun rose, in the cave of the black hole, a train slowly drove out and stopped in the center of the tower slowly, slowly. He couldn't believe what was in front of him, and he finally knew why there were two railroad tracks on the dam.

With a bang, a puff of white smoke came out of the carriage in front of him, and the door opened. A young man with long green flowing hair poked his head out impatiently, holding a handle with one hand and pointing at Zhou Yu with the other.

"Can't you get on the bus?" The young man didn't react when he saw Zhou Yu, who was stunned, and turned his head to close the door and leave.

"Up! Get in! With an arrow step, the Metropolitan Governor carried Wei Ya and rushed onto the train.
