Chapter Seventy-One: The Moat
"Don't look at it, these portraits are mysterious and mysterious, and they have a strong hallucinogenic and hypnotic effect on people!"
Hong Jinglong interrupted our gaze for the first time, a stirring spirit in my heart, I immediately cut off my gaze, just looked at it for a while, I felt that those "ghost statues" seemed to be grinning at me, and the "god statues" were smiling at me.
This mysterious force is really terrifying.
I looked at the rest of the people around me with palpitations, and found that they were all drenched in cold sweat and woke up like a dream, even Hong Jinglong was holding a flying knife tightly with his palm bent inward, his eyes staring at the front without blinking, and his face was unprecedentedly dignified.
The water level slowly fell, and the bronze pillars slowly revealed a third, and the portraits carved on the pillars were revealed more and more, although I tried not to look, but there were too many bronze pillars in front of me, and the afterglow occasionally swept by, and I felt that I heard a cry of ghosts in my ears, lingering around me, and my heart became more and more depressed.
"It's now, don't think about anything, empty your brain, hurry up, remember, don't make a mistake!"
Hong Jinglong roared angrily in his loudest voice, and after shouting, he walked towards the front without waiting for us to respond, and the five of us hurriedly arranged in accordance with the pre-agreed order into a "long snake formation", and followed Hong Jinglong to the front, I was the penultimate one, after Wu Li.
After they all stepped on the bronze pillar, I finally jumped up, according to the method given to me by Hong Jinglong before, try not to think about those terrible things, try not to look down at the bottom, and only use half of my residual vision to aim at the bronze pillar under my feet and follow the predecessors step by step.
I don't know how long these bronze pillars have been standing in the river, after relieving my mind, I suddenly smelled a cold smell of iron, I looked down in a ghostly way, the pillars of those bronze pillars have been rusted, the bronze pillar under my feet has borne my weight, has begun to crumble, there are countless fine cracks on the pillar body, these cracks are spreading to the surroundings at a very fast speed, around the bronze pillar is surrounded by dense mad dogfish, the sharp teeth in the mouth are flashing with cold light.
"Damn, this pillar under my feet is going to break!"
I was almost distracted, and jumped over the pillar next to me with a shout, but at the critical moment, Wu Li suddenly grabbed my arm and shouted: "Don't look down, this is fake!" ”
His strength is really great, a slight pinch made me almost cry, but thanks to his pinching of me, I have a stirring in my mind, and then look at the front of me, not to mention the cracks on the bronze pillar, not even rust, and there are no dense mad dogfish around.
Damn, these bronze pillars are really weird, and they almost killed everyone if they accidentally landed on the road.
At this moment, I was terrified, if it weren't for Wu Li's quick eyes, I was afraid that I would have jumped over the pillar next to me in a hurry, and then all the bronze pillars would have shrunk down, and everyone would have been killed by me.
The fat man in front of me had already begun to move forward, shouting as he walked briskly, "Old Tang, are you okay kid?" Don't look left and right, follow in the footsteps of your Shen Ye, and you can run to the broad road! ”
I followed the fat man and replied, "Don't be poor at this time, okay?" One wrong step, everyone's life is difficult to protect, concentrate on following the front. ”
The fat man took a step forward: "It's not that I'm poor, this time is not the time to be anxious, if you don't distract yourself, it's easier to have an accident when you're nervous, now you see, Shen Ye, I'm talking to you like this, you won't hallucinate!" ”
I didn't want to pay attention to this fat man who didn't care about four or six, and I stepped forward step by step intently, but he was right in one sentence, let him make such a gag, I really didn't feel so nervous.
Thinking like this, I took another step forward, I slammed and almost hit the fat man's back, and almost fell down to scare me, covering my head and saying angrily: "You kid brake sharply and don't know how to say hello?" Damn, when it's so dangerous now, you still dare to play this hand with me! ”
The fat man hurriedly defended: "It's not me, it's the front that suddenly stopped, Brother Hong, how are you there?" Why did you stop all of a sudden? ”
Hong Jinglong's voice came from the front: "There are still the last three pillars, but these pillars are all sprinkled with a layer of black medicinal powder, I can't see the marks clearly, I don't know which three to go, don't worry, there are still three minutes before the water rises, let me think about it." ”
Black powder? It must be the Tong family's ghost!
But since Hong Jinglong said so, we have no good way, we can only rub our hands and stand in place in a hurry, and we can't speak, for fear that if we accidentally interrupt Hong Jinglong's train of thought, we will all be trapped in this moat, even the most gag fat man is careful not to say a word at this time, and he doesn't even dare to breathe.
Time passed in our eagerness, sweat was already oozing from my forehead, the water was rising faster than it fell, the sabertooth and mad dogfish in the river had slowly regained their vitality, and I was afraid that in another minute those mad dogfish would jump up and bite my feet.
The fat man coughed lightly and said tremblingly: "What's that, Lao Hong, I didn't urge you, I don't think we have enough time?" You see that the water is slowly rising, have you figured out a way? ”
Hong Jinglong said lightly: "No, four years have passed, I can't tell which one is correct without relying on the mark, the only way for us now is to run over quickly, anyway, there are three more, even if we step on the wrong one, it will take time for those pillars to be closed, as long as we are faster, at most we will be injured, and our lives can still be saved, but Boss Tang and Wu Li in the back may be in danger." ”
I shuddered in my heart, Hong Jinglong was right, they could run over, but Wu and I were not necessarily, we were still seven or eight pillars away from the shore, if Hong Jinglong was wrong, then we just had to stay here to feed the fish.
Before I could speak, Wu Li said in a deep voice: "Okay, that's it, there's no extra time, the water is rising too much, otherwise we will all die here, let's go, life and death are rich and noble, and no one will complain if grandpa dies." ”
Hong Jinglong responded, and ran straight to the front, I desperately prayed to the gods and Buddhas in my heart, but unfortunately God did not attach importance to me, a temporary tomb robber, only to hear a boom, all the bronze pillars began to shake violently, the shaking was so large that it almost threw me out, the mad dogfish in the river were enraged, and jumped out of the water one after another to find prey, I scolded angrily in my heart, and could only staggered to follow the fat man to the front.
The bronze pillar did not descend quickly, but the frequency of the shaking was so great that I almost staggered forward, and I had barely walked three or four pillars when I saw a sturdy mad dogfish jump up and bite my trouser leg fiercely, its tail wagging violently, trying to tear a piece of flesh off the fabric.
I trembled in my heart, seeing that the water was less than twenty centimeters from the soles of my feet, I was even more scared, but the more scared I was, the slower I walked, and the fat man stepped on the shore with one foot, and I just moved to the position where Hong Jinglong had just stopped thinking.
The fat man turned to me and yelled: "Old Tang, don't grind and chirp like a girl, just a few meters away, hurry up and run over!" ”
I smiled helplessly in my heart, I wanted to run over quickly, but the bronze pillar shook so much, I couldn't take a step at all, uncle, we expected that the bronze pillar would not fall too fast, but no one expected it to shake so violently, and there is a tendency to become more and more violent, it is really too funny!
"Walk you!"
In the midst of my thoughts, I felt a huge impact on my back, and the whole person flew towards me in the fog, and by the time I reacted to the ground, I was already on the shore.
Suppressing the surging qi and blood in my chest, I didn't dare to rest for a moment, and hurriedly stood up and looked into the river, the water was almost past the bronze pillar, Wu Li had three or four mad dogfish hanging on his feet, his face was so gloomy that he seemed to be able to drip water, and he took out four or five purses from his arms one after another and opened them to spill out the medicinal powder of various colors.
These medicinal powders should be the treasures at the bottom of Wu Li's pressure box, they really work, I can smell the pungent smell on the shore, and those mad dogfish immediately loosen their mouths and retreat as if they stepped on the high-voltage line, but Wu Li forgot one thing, he is now standing on the surface of the river, no matter how strong the medicinal powder is diluted by the river water of this entire moat, it will become completely ineffective.
The mad dogfish were completely enraged, and after releasing their mouths, they only swam around the river, and the medicinal effect had been diluted by the river water to almost nothing, and those mad dogfish jumped out of the river one after another, opened their mouths and bit Wu Li's body.
Wu Li's body seems to have almost used up the medicinal powder, but he only walked two pillars away, and the water surface has already reached his shins, looking at the cold sweat on his face, I know how much he has been offended under the water.
He saved me, and I can't afford to see him eaten by these mad dogfish.
Turning the backpack to his chest to protect the vital point, I ran directly into the river, the fat man tried to come up and stop me, but I didn't have time to talk nonsense with him, so I could only reach out and pull him away first, the little demon directly handed me a scarf, I immediately understood what the little demon meant, took the scarf and ran to the river, and threw the scarf towards Wu Li: "Grab the scarf, I'll pull you up." ”
Wu Li's face was already distorted by pain at this time, he tried to reach out and grab the scarf, but it was still half a meter away, I gritted my teeth, my mother fought hard, and stepped directly into the river, holding the scarf and running towards Wu Li.
