Chapter 222: The Bridge of Death (1)

I stepped forward and pulled the rope, and found that it was loose, which means that Li Wuchang and the others have arrived somewhere, and there is no one on these ropes. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

We lay on the edge of the cliff and looked down, the rope only extended about half the distance, and below was the rolling rapids, because the cliff wall was a reverse inclination, so we couldn't see anything above the rock wall, but we were sure that there was a foothold below, otherwise these people would not have jumped into the river.

The fawn rummaged through her bag for a while, and only took out a clasp, which we had used before at the top of the tower in the Tomb of the Celestial Maiden, and it could be safely lifted and lowered by tying it to a rope.

There is only one buckle, so only one person can go down at a time, in order to avoid Lao Hai escaping, we sandwiched him in the middle and let him go down the second, Xiaolu is the first.

Once the safety measures were in place, the fawn descended cautiously down the rope, and when he reached about a third of the way through the canyon, he gestured to us and swung in the air.

After a while, the fawn disappeared from our field of vision, and it seemed that there was indeed a foothold on the cliff.

The rope shook for a while and then hung down again, and at the same time there was a simple safety rope and lock made of deer, and we quickly pulled the rope up, and Lao Hai put it on, and also descended along the rope.

I was the last to go down, because of the previous climbing experience, this height is nothing for me, I am familiar with the downward slide, about four or five meters down, I saw the slope of the stone wall, there is a long wooden trestle bridge, firmly embedded in the middle of the stone crack, the deer and the old sea are standing on the bridge and waving to me.

I descended slowly, and when I reached the right height, I swung cautiously, and after a few rounds, the fawn and the old sea grabbed my legs, pulled me to the bridge, and loosened the rope for me.

The trestle bridge is built against the mountain, and extends along the stone wall on this side until it disappears into the water curtain in the distance, like a bridge to another world.

The bridge looks to be some years old, and many of the planks have corroded and broken, and most of the stakes and ropes on the outside are so dilapidated that they may fall apart with a little exertion.

However, it is already ingenious that the bridge can be built in such a place, and it is very difficult to transport the wood between such dangerous cliffs, not to mention the construction that will take several months, which is impossible to complete without good technical support, and there is a long-term uninterrupted torrent underneath, and the splashing water vapor will always erode the materials on the bridge, and it is a miracle that the bridge can last so long.

As we walked downstream along the trestle, the planks under our feet creaked with each step, so we had to be extra careful.

In addition to the fracture and corrosion of the wooden planks of the base, the protruding stone wall has also become a major obstacle to our progress, because the shape of the stone wall is extremely strange, and the protruding parts are irregular, so we must constantly dodge sideways, and in some extreme places, people can not pass at all, so they can only lie on the bridge or climb over the outside of the guardrail to move.

I don't know how long we walked, we never saw any changes, I even thought that there was no end to this bridge at all, but now I have no way back, I can only insist on being physically and mentally exhausted, not thinking about anything, not complaining about anything.

The further we went, the higher the mountain became, and gradually, the sunlight could no longer penetrate completely, and our vision became very dim, but it was not completely dark, and we could barely move forward. Because there is no sunlight all year round, the stone wall next to it is covered with damp moss, and it will feel very slippery when you hold it, which undoubtedly causes us a lot of trouble.

Suddenly, I felt something, and I hurriedly stretched out my head to look, at first I couldn't see clearly because of the light, but under closer inspection, I couldn't help but gasp.

I saw some vines on the stone wall in front of me drilling out of the cracks, intertwining with each other, among these vines, a huge head was tied, staring at me, although the dead man's skull was not so terrifying, but suddenly staring at it, it still made people a little panicked.

Lao Hai scolded lightly, pulled out his head from the vines, and in an instant, he pulled out a whole skeleton shelf, and his body was also wrapped with tiny vine rhizomes, and at the same time, a distinct human figure was printed on the stone wall behind him.

The old sea monster screamed, and hurriedly threw the skeleton shelf down, a few bones scattered at our feet, and covered with cyan vine leaves.

"Who the hell is here, there is no lack of virtue!" I grumbled by kicking the bones at my feet.

At this time, Lao Hai was already standing a few meters away and shouted to us: "You two come and see, there are also here!" ”

As he spoke, he heard the sound of "stabbing -", and two sets of skeletons appeared on Lao Hai's two hands, and two round heads stood on both sides of his shoulders, and in the dark, he looked like a three-headed and six-armed Nezha.

"Don't touch that thing!" The fawn suddenly screamed, and I was also startled, I turned around, but saw that the fawn's expression was a little wrong, it seemed to be very panicked, I hurriedly asked him what was wrong, but the fawn ignored me, pushed me away, rushed to the front, grabbed my hand and ran forward, while running and beckoning to Lao Hai: "Quickly throw away the things in your hand!" Run! ”

I didn't react at once, what the hell happened, as for being so flustered?

But then I heard a rustling sound behind me, and the sound was like the disturbance of hundreds of millions of insect feet, which made people's scalps tingle when they heard it.

At this moment I realized that things were not good, no matter what was behind it, it was not a good thing anyway, I didn't dare to turn my head back, I spread the hand of the fawn, and followed him with all my strength.

Seeing us rushing towards him, Lao Hai threw away the skull shelf in his hand in a panic, and turned around to escape, but at this moment, several extremely thick vines suddenly stretched out from the cracks in the stone wall, instantly entangled Lao Hai's arm, making him unable to move at all.

I recognize this thing! This is exactly the vine we encountered in the underground passage of Li Wuchang's courtyard when we first entered the mountain! At that time, Lao Hai and a few of them almost lost their lives because of this!

After a while, the vines actually wrapped Lao Hai's whole body, and kept shrinking into the wall, Lao Hai was tightly trapped in it, like a big fat silkworm that was only cocooned and bound by itself, at the same time, the vines behind me had come to my feet at some point, and I felt that I was hung up by a great force, and then pressed against the wall.

At that moment, my brain was in a mess, and my hands and feet were completely unresponsive, but I could only watch as the vines wrapped me around me little by little.

What to do? What to do? If I delay like this, I'm sure I'll be left with nothing more than a skeleton!
