Chapter 20: The King's Sword (3)

"Crane, you must be mistaken, it doesn't look like there will be any more games today. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "Gu Shiyu sat on the cold ground in annoyance.

"I can't be mistaken, even though we were in the dark in the dungeon, they would deliver food and water once a day, and I wrote it down every time. ”

"Maybe you're old and confused, and remember it many times, or I really can't find any other explanation. ”

"Nonsense, why don't you try it and see if I'm old fooled!" Crane rolled up his sleeves angrily, if it weren't for the fence separating the two, he was afraid that he would pounce on him and fight.

"You save it!" Gu Shiyu lay on the crumbling wooden bed in the prison, his hands pillowed under his head and began to be in a daze.

"I'm absolutely not mistaken, otherwise how could I have listened to your boy's bad idea and drank urine with you for a few days? God, my Crane hero is the world's hero, and now I have ruined all of you!" Crane muttered as he walked back to the wooden bed.

Gu Shiyu didn't bother to pay attention to him. Why are you drinking pee? The Holy and Great Chosen One is drinking pee with you! If this gets out, it will be terrible.

I remember the first time I roasted rat meat with Lu Yao, Hongyezi refused to kiss him for several days, saying that when I looked at his lips, I remembered the mouse's mouth. If Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine knew that this mouth had not only eaten rats, but also drank urine, would you say that she would have agreed to kiss?

Gu Shiyu turned over and got up and said, "Crane, after we go out, no one is allowed to mention eating mice and drinking urine." ”

Crane glared, "Of course! If you dare to say it, I'll knock out all your teeth!"

"That's good, that's good!" Gu Shiyu finally fell asleep with peace of mind.

Crane was still annoyed. Grandma's, it looks like I've drunk my urine in vain these days.

When the jailer brought the food the next day, Crane's eyes began to glow. When the jailer was out, he threw himself on the fence, shook it violently, and shouted, "Hey, you boy, wake up!"

"What's wrong?" Gu Shiyu sat up and rubbed his eyes.

"I'm not wrong, there will definitely be a game today. Crane was so happy that his beard curled.

"How do you know?" Gu Shiyu jumped up.

"You see, they gave us extra food, and that's the best explanation. Crane excitedly pointed to the plate underground.

Yes, the food delivered today is more than twice as much as usual. Gu Shiyu jeopardized his head and said, "Oops, I forgot to catch a mouse last night." Hurry up......" He took the plate, poured all the food into the corner, and then crouched on the ground to learn the rats.

"Are you stupid! The rats have been busy all night and are now back to sleep. Crane looked at him with disdain, and took a piece from his bosom and ate it.

Gu Shiyu looked at Crane enviously and said, "How much has your combat strength recovered?"

"There should be five, and it won't be a problem to beat a dozen or so jailers. What about you?"

"Pretty much! I wish we only faced ordinary jailers and not too many heroes. ”

"There won't be any heroes, they won't be interested in staying in this prison. ”

Sure enough, around noon, a few jailers opened the door and struck the iron fence with iron rods and shouted, "Come out, it's time to let the wind out!"

Gu Shiyu and Crane pretended to be hobbled out of the prison and came to the center of the mountainside.

It is a huge natural cave with a dark river and even the sound of flowing water. Gu Shiyu nodded secretly, since he could hear the sound of running water, it meant that this was living water, and maybe he could find an outlet by following the current.

If you can't break through violently, then there is only one way to escape by jumping into the water, and I hope that I can successfully find the exit by diving with my breath, otherwise I will be like a dead fish floating under the rocks. Doing so, while dangerous, is better than no hope.

Now they stood on a flat ground by the Dark River, which was filled with huge reefs, some of which had been hewn into steps for walking, others with only a few pits for climbing. Many of the overhangs have rickety rope bridges, and there is a deep dark river below.

Many jailers, with dark red bodies and horns on their heads and long whips at their waists, stood on the rocks on either side of the road, crossbows in their hands, shouting happily.

"Don't fall into the water, or they'll shoot you. Crane admonished.

"I'm fine, you have to be careful. Gu Shiyu nodded gratefully.

"At the end of the road and the rope bridge is the warden's chambers, which are about a mile or so long. Although the distance is very short, the journey is very dangerous, and the people around you will never let you get ahead of him, and will definitely sneak up on you. ”

Gu Shiyu said in a low voice: "What kind of soldiers are these jailers, are they powerful?"

"These are soldiers from Hell Castle, belonging to the fifth level of warriors. ”

"Rank 5 Warrior? Isn't that more powerful than a human swordsman? Deadwood Warrior should be a Rank 5, right?"

"Yes. The Deadwood Warrior's skill is to entangle enemies with tendrils to immobilize them, while the Jailer's skill is to resurrect his dead companions into a level 4 Demon Warrior. ”

The power of a fifth-level warrior has been seen by Gu Shiyu. First he was choked by the Druid monks in the Valley of Death, and then he was killed by the Deadwood Warriors on the Isle of Light. Although a few jailers are not afraid at all, they are afraid that they will be in great trouble if they get together and fall into a siege.

"How many of them do you have?"

"It's less than three hundred, how can there be such a class in the Lost Land, it's really incomprehensible. Crane shook his head.

The prisoners gathered on the flat ground, numbering about 100 people.

The warden with blue flames on his body appeared. He stood on a huge stone stalactite and swung the long whip of fire in his hand with all his might!

A huge fireball exploded in the air. All the people in the cave were startled and silent.

"The annual tournament is about to begin! In my prison, only the strong men are entitled to live, and the weak are sent to hell by me. As a token of my kindness, the first place winner will be awarded the title of champion, he will be given a comfortable prison, he will be given delicious food, and I will personally recite to him my newly made hymn. If he promises to serve me, I will even give him a woman. ”

The jailers burst out laughing.

The warden pointed his flaming whip at the crowd and shouted, "You! you! you...... Don't you want to be honored, get ready to race, you filthy bugs!"

"The rules of our game are that there are no rules! If you don't like anyone, then beat him! Beat him hard, I won't ask you to pay for your life! If anyone dares to run in front of you, then hit him with a stone, or push him into the water, and I will ask him to eat a few hard crossbows! But if anyone dares to dodge and not run, I will whip him to the ground! Run in the last three, I will let my pet bite every bone in his body!"

Several jailers led a couple of hellhounds behind the crowd. The faint man saw this terrible monster and his legs began to tremble.

These hounds are tall and covered with strong, powerful muscles under their dark skin, and what is even more terrifying is that each hound has three heads, each of which growls and drips disgusting mucus from its mouthful of fangs and long barbed tongue.

The jailers were staggered by the three Hellhounds, barely able to grasp the reins.

The eerie whistle sounded "Shh~~~~~~h

What kind of running race is this, it's like playing American football!

"Who kicked me?" the person who spoke turned angrily and punched the person behind him!

"Oh my God, you're stepping on my feet!"

"Run, Hellhound is coming!"

"Oh my God, who's going to stop those people in front of you!"

The first few people were immediately grabbed and fell by the people behind them, or were knocked to the ground by the stones flying in all directions.

Some of the jailers put their fingers in their mouths and whistled loudly, while others shouted and laughed.

Gu Shiyu and Crane did not choose to break through early. They huddle in the crowd and are occasionally punched and kicked by the person behind them, but it is better than the person who runs in front. Gu Shiyu has long understood why middle-distance runners have to hold down their speed at the beginning, but the one who runs at the front is the most difficult, and a race like this will be beaten to the head.

Crane, like Yoland, is also a big meat ball. He ran in the middle of the line, and one man blocked the road tightly. Behind him was suppressed a large number of people, covering Gu Shiyu gradually followed the first echelon.

"That dead dwarf in front, can you run faster?" came the foul curses from behind him.

"If you can't run, hide behind!"

"He's still running so slowly!"

"Beat him!"

Several men grabbed Crane by the waist from behind and tried to knock him over. Crane was furious, his arms shook, and the two of them flew into the dark river.

"Whoosh!whoosh!" A few bowstrings sounded, and several streams of blood immediately poured out from the side of the person who fell into the dark river.

Crane turned and barked at his man who was trying to plot against him.

"Stoned this son of a bitch!" his fierce appearance did not frighten the prisoner, but attracted countless stones.

Crane protected his head with both hands, but several large bags had been smashed on his head, so he had to turn around and run.

As soon as Crane's speed increased, the speed of the whole team increased.

Gu Shiyu took advantage of such a precious opportunity and finally rushed to the front of the team. He didn't dare to exert his full strength, otherwise the jailers would see that he had recovered most of his strength.

Gu Shiyu had just passed by a jailer, who whistled a long whip on his head and drew a few circles, and then whipped him on the back. Gu Shiyu stumbled, and a deep whip mark immediately appeared on his back, and the blood immediately flowed down, and his back hurt hotly.

Your sister, are you looking for death? Gu Shiyu was furious!

"What do you see? I want you to run faster! You still want to eat whips, don't you?!"

You remember it for me! Gu Shiyu said hatefully, wait for my brother to clean you up!

There is a stone wall in front of it, if it is usual, Gu Shiyu kicks a few steps on the wall with both feet, and then climbs with both hands, and he can immediately turn over, but now it seems that he can't show off. So he had to climb the recess in the stone wall and climb up like a gecko.

Halfway up, his feet were dragged by the man behind him, almost pulling him down. Gu Shiyu kicked his feet and kicked the man into the air, but several other people pounced on him.

Gu Shiyu scolded in his heart: "Is there such a competition? You are seriously violating the spirit of sportsmanship." Haven't you heard the PE teacher say that friendship comes first, competition comes second?"

Although he had a lot of complaints about such a game in his heart, Gu Shiyu's hands and feet were not idle. He kicked over another man who was pulling his hind legs, and finally climbed up the stone wall.

He stood on the stone wall, looking condescendingly behind him, but there was no cheer and applause he had hoped for, only the sharp whistles of the jailers.

The team of more than 100 people has now formed a long snake formation. At the end of the line there was someone lying on the ground groaning, it must have been a poor creature that had been trampled on, and then a limp followed, and Crane ran at the front of the second echelon, with stones flying behind him.

There are only four people left in the first echelon. There were two people who watched and almost climbed up the stone wall, and one was kicked down by Gu Shiyu, and then ran over to step on the second one, but the man let go and slid down by himself.

Gu Shiyu grinned with satisfaction.

I'm afraid not. The three people below saw Gu Shiyu standing on it, quite a posture of being a husband and a man, and immediately thought of a way. There were so many rocks at his feet, and everyone smashed him hard!

Gu Shiyu was startled, and immediately turned around and fled.

The warden put his finger in his mouth and let out a long whistle, and the jailer behind him immediately released the hellhound.

The few prisoners who were left behind immediately screamed heart-rending screams.

"You lazy worms, don't run yet!"

The jailers laughed and whipped people in the backs.

Gu Shiyu has come to the long rope bridge. It looks like it has a span of dozens of meters, and it is wobbly on it.

Hey, hey...... What's the matter, why is the rope bridge shaking so hard? Gu Shiyu grabbed the ropes on both sides and tried his best to keep shaking in sync with the rope bridge.

He looked back, damn it, the three people behind him were shaking from side to side holding on to the rope bridge, looking like they wanted to shake themselves down.

Isn't this swinging? Some of the jailers have already laughed and fallen to the ground rubbing their bellies and shouting oops.

You can't stay on the rope bridge, or they will swing the rope bridge higher and higher, and sooner or later they will shake themselves down. Climb, Gu Shiyu can't care about the identity of the Chosen One, his shoulders, waist, and buttocks rise and fall up and down on the ropeway, like a wriggling caterpillar.

Crane had already shaken off his pursuers, and suddenly burst into stride, rushing to the edge of the rope bridge. He didn't say anything polite, he waved his arms, and the few people who shook the bridge were immediately thrown into the dark river by him. The bowstring sounded, and several screams were immediately heard from the dark river.

"Yes, the Chosen One and this dwarf are indeed the strongest. The warden nodded, "After the game, bring the Chosen One to my office, I have to write a hymn first, otherwise there will be nothing to read." ”

The warden began to walk to his office. If nothing else, the Chosen One and the Dwarves should be crowned champions and runners-up, respectively. The two men won, but they ran awkwardly, Crane was hit on the head by a rock, and the Chosen One was like a poor worm crawling on a rope bridge, and almost fell into the river.

"Hmph, no matter how strong a hero you are, you'll become a wretched worm to me!" the warden was satisfied.

He wouldn't have thought that the state of these two people was fake.
