Chapter Seventy-Two: Stone Worms

Feng Yi was overjoyed when he heard this: "What way? “

Zhong Xiong laughed, looked at Feng Yi and teased: "Feng Yi, you have been out of the limelight for so many years, and it is finally my turn to play." ”

Feng Yi scolded with a smile: "Don't talk nonsense, I won't steal your limelight in the future." ”

Zhong Xiong slapped his thigh: "Talking counts." Then he took out something from the Ruyi bag and held it tightly in the palm of his hand, until Feng Yi urged him again and again, and then slowly opened his palm.

Zhong Xiong smiled as if he was protecting a baby, "Guess what this is?"

Feng Yi probed over, and only saw a few small gray insects, lying there without moving. I wondered in my heart, could it be that this is the method Zhong Xiong said? At the moment, he said disdainfully: "It's just an ordinary Gu worm, what's the big deal." ”

He didn't actually know the gray worm in his heart, and he just said this to provoke the bear.

Sure enough, Zhong Xiong hurriedly said when he heard this: "Tell you, this insect is not an ordinary Gu worm, but a famous Stone Heart Gu." I begged for these from Langya in the East. ”

"Stone Heart Gu?" Feng Yi thought about it violently, he seemed to have heard of it from Yu Xi, this kind of insect has a mediocre appearance, and it is not poisonous. But it has the ability to secrete a liquid that corrodes stones, and once it burrows into the stones, it doesn't take long for the stones to become like honeycombs.

Therefore, in the past, there were often people who relied on the Stone Heart Gu to come to the Xuanbing Iron in the depths of the ordinary underground to refine divine weapons.

Zhong Xiong said with a smile: "Langya Country is surrounded by mountains, and it is very inconvenient to come and go. So they used the Stone Heart Gu to create passages in the mountains, connecting the various mountains and establishing passages. This time Langya and Gumu formed an alliance, I was curious, so I asked for a few from Zhuge Yu, the lord of Langya, and I didn't expect it to really come in handy. ”

Feng Yi had a flash of inspiration and said, "Are you going to use this stone worm to fight in the cave from the other side of the mountain, and then secretly rescue the ranger?"

Zhong Xiong laughed and said, "Yes, sure enough, you know me best." ”

Feng Yi couldn't help but ask: "Just these few insects, if you want to make a passage in the mountain, when will it be?"

Zhong Xiong smiled mysteriously: "You'll know later." ”

The crowd jumped up to the treetops and looked around. At this moment, thousands of Han country spies have been dispatched around Gufeng Mountain, and they have been searching in the mountains, and the fierce beasts and birds around them are panicking and fleeing into the distance.

Zhong Xiong said: "Your movement this time is not small. ”

Feng Yi smiled: "Of course, if the movement is small, how can you fish in troubled waters." ”

Everyone laughed, took advantage of the slight gap between the spies leaving, and at the same time flew all the way up under the cover of the trees, and soon came to the back of Gufeng Mountain.

Zhong Xiong pointed to the huge stone on the mountain: "Feng Yi, it's your turn." ”

Feng Yi gave birth to suction in his hand, clinging to the stone, carefully calculating in his heart, and after a while, a qi blade turned out in his hand, and his body was like the wind, and he quickly cut out nine holes in the mountain.

"It should be these places, all the way to the inside, which is the prison where the rangers are kept. ”

Zhong Xiong nodded, took the heart worm, and placed it in the hole. After a while, the stone worm slowly moved, crawling up and down on the stone, and at the same time secreted a transparent liquid, which melted and expanded rapidly as soon as it touched the stone, like hot fire touching ice.

In just a moment, a small pit became half a square circle, which could accommodate several people to pass through.

Feng Yi sighed in surprise: "It's really a good thing." ”

Zhong Xiong said proudly: "Of course. If it is nourished with spiritual power, these stone worms will multiply rapidly, and it is not impossible to eat this mountain completely. ”

Feng Yi said curiously: "Then what if these insects don't stop when the cave is penetrated?"

Zhong Xiong smiled, "I also asked the same question at the beginning, so the Lord of Langya gave me a treasure, the essence of the stone!" As he spoke, he took out a yellow jade, shining, and those stone-hearted Gu suddenly turned around and ran towards his palm.

Zhong Xiong hurriedly put it away and said with a smile: "The work is not done yet, so you want to rest?"

Feng Yi laughed, and then beckoned everyone to divide the Stone Heart Gu into nine and head towards the belly of the mountain in nine directions. After a while, digging deeper and deeper, Feng Yi and Zhong Xiong discussed, and dug a connecting corridor in the nine passages to facilitate travel.

After about half an hour, the stone in front of me made a clicking sound, which grew louder and louder, and then collapsed in an instant, revealing a large hole. Hundreds of ragged rangers appeared in the cave, looking at the people who appeared from the mountain in amazement, their eyes full of vigilance.

"Who are you?"

If a soldier from the Cold Kingdom came to interrogate, he would not usually appear from behind, so the rangers were on guard, but there was not much hostility.

The stakes are high, and there are still many Han country spies searching outside. Feng Yi didn't have time to elaborate, but hurriedly identified himself.

When the rangers heard this, they felt that it was like a dream, they could never imagine that if they fell into the hands of the cold country, they would be able to escape one day, and some desperate people were too surprised for a while, and they couldn't help but cry and laugh again.

Feng Yi hurriedly stopped: "This is not the place to talk, let's leave quickly." ”

The rangers nodded, greeted in unison, picked up their wounded companions, followed behind, and walked towards the passage. Feng Yi, Zhong Xiong and the others went to the other eight prisons to bring the rangers out together.

When he went to the fifth prison, Feng Yi suddenly found that a person was extremely familiar, and when he looked closely, it turned out to be Ji Yuan of the Western Zhou Kingdom who had broken through together before.

Feng Yi was shocked: "Brother Ji, why were you caught here?"

Ji Yuan said happily: "It turned out to be Brother Feng, it seems that the sky will not kill us." ”

When Zhong Xiong and the others heard that this was the leader of the Western Ranger in front of them, they were all in awe, clasping their fists and saluting. After Ji Yuan said, Feng Yi and the others discovered that this time the cold country had really set up a net, ready to wipe out all the rangers in the Great Wilderness.

Ji Yuan asked again: "Brother Feng, I dare to ask, when you came, did you see those companions who were taken out?"

When the wind heard the words, my heart sank. He hesitated again and again, and finally told the torture outside, but he skipped many cruel details. Hearing this, the rangers were still furious, and smashed their fists into the cave one by one, eager to rush out immediately to fight to the death with the soldiers of the Cold Country.

Ji Yuan stopped everyone and sighed: "Hey, it's all my fault, just with a lot of blood, I can't imagine that so many lives were given away in vain." ”

Feng Yi looked at Ji Yuan's appearance, his expression was withered, and there was no light in his eyes. It's only been a few months since they were separated, and the originally high-spirited and calm ranger has become like this, which is not only abused, but more importantly, due to the grief and despair in his heart after seeing so many brothers die tragically.

Feng Yi couldn't help but say, "Brother Ji, I'll just say it straight." This time, Yu Hanxun set a trap, and it was very difficult for us to assassinate him. It's better to give up for the time being, and everyone flee here together, and then make plans. ”

Seeing this opportunity, Zhong Xiong remembered Mo'er's trust, and couldn't help but say, "Feng Yi is right. Nowadays, Kunwu and other countries in the West, Langya and Gentlemen in the East, plus our Gumu, by the way, there are also Beidi...... Many tribes in the Great Wilderness are dissatisfied with the Han Kingdom, and if we can unite and think in the long run, we will definitely be able to overthrow the tyranny of the Han Kingdom. ”

Ji Yuan was silent when he heard this. The rangers behind him couldn't help it, and shouted one after another: "If you can't avenge your companions, what's the use of surviving!"

"Yes, this time we must fight to the death with the dog thief Yu Hanxun. ”

The rangers were filled with righteous indignation and anger, but fortunately, there was a cave in the way, so as not to alarm the evil gods and soldiers of the cold country not far away.

Feng Yi sensed Ji Yuan's thoughts, knowing that he was hesitating in his heart, on the one hand, so many companions had died, and the great revenge could not be avenged. On the other hand, he also knows that there is a huge disparity in strength, and if he persists, more people may die.

Feng Yi thought secretly: "Time is urgent now, and I will slowly persuade after I go out." “

After thinking about it, he said with Zhong Xiong: "Whether you want to take revenge or escape, everyone must rest and recuperate first, and then make a decision when you have enough spirits." “

The rangers then remembered that they hadn't eaten a full meal or slept well in many days. In this cave, every day I was frightened, I couldn't see my fingers, and I was about to collapse my spirit.

Ji Yuan beckoned everyone and evacuated from the cave in an orderly manner.

Feng Yi walked in front, suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Brother Ji, were you arrested when we broke through the customs together?

Ji Yuan said: "Bai Fu and my soldiers are divided into two ways, on the other side of Shanglin Yuan, according to some brothers, he is planning the assassination, and he has not shown up, so he should be safe for the time being." “

Feng Yi thought secretly: "Oh no, I have to persuade Bai Fu." Time is pressing, and the hunting meeting will begin in one day. “

The people walked cautiously along the cave. The ranger in the back was anxious, and he wanted to leave this dark hellish place immediately. As he was walking, he suddenly saw the people in front of him stop, nervous one by one, and pricked up their ears.

I heard someone shouting: "General Wei Mei has an order, that Daxia thief must want to come to rescue this group of anti-thieves, we must surround Gufeng Mountain, and we are not allowed to let go of even a bird." If one of them escapes, head up to the general. “

Hundreds of soldiers from the Cold Kingdom responded in unison, "Yes." "The sound was majestic, and the shaking mountains hummed.

Zhong Xiong said: "Oh no, what can I do about this? Now it's not going to advance, it's not going to retreat." ”

All the rangers shouted that they were going out to fight, but only a few Ji Yuan were calm in their hearts and dissuaded everyone.

After a while, Feng Yi said in a deep voice: "I have a way that is not a way, but ......"
