Chapter 992: Avalanche and Earth Crack
What about Liu Qinghan?
Where is he?
Just when I was so frightened that I almost had to stop my heart from beating through the entire blood-red stone room, a person who fell in front of Yan Qinghan groaned softly.
As soon as I heard the voice, I hurried over and put my arm on his shoulders and looked down.
Liu Qinghan!
His face was also stained with blood, and even the half of the mask was not spared, and it glistened with cold light under the blood. But his breath was hot and faint, and when he opened his eyes and saw me, his eyes were even in a trance.
"You-"
"It's me!"
When my voice sounded, he seemed to tremble, his eyes cleared up, and he looked at me with a slight gap: "It's you?" β
"It's me! I'm coming! β
As I spoke, I tried to lift him up, but as soon as I moved, I heard him let out a groan of pain, and my whole body curled up.
Only then did I see that someone had stabbed him in the shoulder, and blood gushed out!
"You're hurt!"
At this time, he was so painful that he couldn't speak, his whole body was trembling, I don't know what happened just now, looking at his painful appearance, I could only hurriedly raise my head to look at Yan Qinghan, and then at Xiao Yusheng.
Maybe it was because the stone door was pushed open, the temperature in it dropped slightly, and the two people who had been holding swords against each other suddenly took a deep breath as if someone had let go of the black hand that was holding their throats, and I immediately saw that Yan Qinghan's almost red eyes flashed a little clear light, but he immediately trembled, and the sword in his hand seemed to have become heavier, almost making him unable to hold it. He staggered back two steps, and finally fell to his knees, barely holding himself on to the ground with the tip of his sword.
Until he was like this, Xiao Yusheng finally couldn't support it anymore, and the whole person fell on his back, and blood spurted out of his mouth and nose!
Pei Yuanfeng frowned, and Xue Muhua stepped forward, one supporting Xiao Yusheng and the other supporting Yan Qinghan.
Xiao Yusheng was the best of the three, but he also hung his head, almost paralyzed for a while, before he barely raised his head to look around, and suddenly seemed to wake up: "You-...... you're here?"
"What's going on? How could you-? β
At this time, he seemed to remember something, a trace of panic flashed on his face, he turned his head to look around, and suddenly his breath was suffocated.
"What's going on?" Pei Yuanfeng helped him: "How did you do this?" β
Xiao Yusheng looked around, and slowly turned his head at this time, the panicked look on his face was completely undisguised, he gritted his teeth, climbed Pei Yuanfeng's arm and was about to stand up, struggling and saying, "Hurry up!" Get everyone out of here! β
"What's wrong?"
"I can't keep it here!" Xiao Yusheng stood up and said loudly: "This mountain can't be saved, get out quickly!" β
As soon as these words came out, the people around them were all stunned.
And the sixth man, who had been trembling and following us, but at this time he was climbing at the stone gate and did not dare to come in, suddenly said: "I know, I know what's going on?" β
Everyone turned to look at him again.
He said, "This mountain is going to breathe fire!" Vulcan is coming out! β
"What?!"
"What are you talking about?"
"What Vulcan?"
Everyone was puzzled, but they were also disturbed by their panic and warning, Pei Yuanfeng walked over with Xiao Yusheng in his arms, and asked loudly: "What the hell are you talking about, what Vulcan?" What Spitfire? β
"I know why there are more peach blossom fish nearby, and I also know why there is no sound on this island tonight," the sixth man was already frightened and panicked at the moment, and even became a little incoherent, and said busily: "We have met once before, there is a small island, and the top of the mountain on the island suddenly began to breathe fire one night, and the fire was going to erupt into the sky, and half the day was burned red, and the whole island was burned, and even the surrounding sea water was boiled!" All the boats, all the people, not a single one on the island! β
As soon as he said this, everyone's eyes widened in horror.
At this time, I carefully helped Liu Qinghan to stand up from the ground, there was a blood hole in his arm, and he could hardly use any more force, so that the whole person was powerless to press on my shoulder, and the blood was gushing, and soon it flowed down, dyeing most of my clothes red.
In contrast to his blood-red shirt was his increasingly pale face and lips.
I whispered, "How are you?" β
He had already used too much strength to stand up just now, and he didn't even have room to speak at this time, so he only shook his head weakly, and his forehead fell down in a mess.
I reached out and pinched my sleeve, carefully wiped the blood and sweat on his face, brushed his hair behind his ears, and said, "If you can't hold it, you must tell me." β
"......" He still didn't have the strength to speak, and only nodded slightly.
Although he was very weak, at least he was still conscious, so I didn't worry too much, as long as I left here and let Xue Muhua show him his injuries. Thinking of this, I turned around again and asked the sixth child: "Then you say, what's the matter with the increase in peach blossom fish?" β
"That time, the god of fire appeared as now, not a single bird could be seen on the island, it was as quiet as no one, and there were many peach blossom fish on the surrounding beach, and they stung people when they saw them; Also, a lot of fish have come out on the bottom of the sea, and they are ...... up in groups."
ββ¦β¦οΌβ
"A great expanse of the sea turned silver."
ββ¦β¦β
"At that time, we didn't know that it was the god of fire who was angry, and we thought that the god of the sea was going to be angry, so we went to burn incense and kowtow, but still-"
Speaking of this, he also seemed to remember something unbearable, unreminiscent of the picture, and the whole person trembled.
At this time, I remembered that when I was crossing the sea and flying clouds before, I saw the fish on the bottom of the sea surging up one by one, and those sailors could directly use buckets to catch them, and just tonight - no, it should have been last night, when Xiao Wusheng took me and Xue Muhua to the east shore of Tianquan Island in a small boat, there were also large schools of fish emerging from the bottom of the sea in the sea, swimming chaotically, stirring up that piece of seawater.
Is this just-
Precursor?
Underneath this mountain, it's going to breathe fire?
Therefore, those peach blossom fish that have been on the bottom of the sea will frequently appear on the beach, sting when they see people, and schools of fish will also rush to the sea, and even this huge island, a huge mountain, there is not even a bird or beast, because they have sensitively sensed that there is going to be an earth-shattering upheaval here, so they all fled?
Just when everyone was stunned and completely at a loss, Xiao Yusheng said loudly again: "Get out quickly, people will go crazy if you stay here for a long time!" β
After he said this, no one delayed any longer, and he didn't even dare to ask a word, Pei Yuanfeng commanded his men to patrol the surrounding side to see if there were any alive, and if there was, they would take it out together, and he helped Xiao Yusheng, I helped Liu Qinghan, and was about to go out, but I heard Yan Qinghan behind him wave away Xue Muhua's hand: "I'm not leaving!" I'm going to stay and find the Franc artillery! I can't go back empty-handed! I can't do nothing! β
Xue Muhua was caught off guard and was pushed by him and fell to the ground all of a sudden.
As soon as I saw this scene, Pei Yuanfeng's face immediately sank, and I was about to walk up, but I stretched out my hand and stopped him.
I carefully helped Liu Qinghan to the side of the stone gate, let him lean against the stone gate, and gave Pei Yuanfeng a look, and he hurriedly reached out to help Liu Qinghan, who was standing unsteadily. Then I turned around and walked over to Yan Qinghan.
He himself was already unsteady on his feet, and after pushing Xue Muhua away, the wolf fell to the ground on his back, and his body was soaked through his clothes and dripping down without knowing whether it was his own or someone else's blood.
I crouched down and looked him in the eye.
His eyes, one moment clear, the other chaotic, were bloodshot, and when he looked at me, it seemed as if both eyes were about to protrude from their sockets.
I raised my hand and slapped him hard.
The sound of "pop", heavy and loud, echoed in the stone chamber, and shook everyone. The palm that was originally red with blood slapped him in the face, and the palm was also faintly painful, and he was beaten by me so that his face was turned to the side, and even his hair was scattered.
He covered his face and looked at me in disbelief.
"Wake up!" I leaned in front of him and looked him coldly into the eyes: "That batch of artillery is not on this island at all!" β
ββ¦β¦οΌβ
His eyes widened suddenly.
The people around were also surprised, and even their breathing was messed up.
"The Iron Mask King released a message for everyone to come here, just to gather all the people who are looking for the Franco machine artillery and have the ambition to fight on one island and kill them all!"
ββ¦β¦β
"Yan Qinghan, you have been planning step by step, what do you think you can find? What do you think you're getting? β
ββ¦β¦β
"You've just been tricked!"
ββ¦β¦β
"We didn't know how he could kill so many people before, but now I understand that he should have expected that this mountain would not be saved, so he gave a fake map to lead everyone to such a deep underground."
ββ¦β¦β
"There are people outside the world, there are heavens outside the sky, don't think that only you can count, everyone can count, others count more than you, more detailed than you."
ββ¦β¦β
"My mother, your aunt, has known for a long time that there will be such a day, so he didn't let the Iron Mask King go to sea to hide those cannons at all, the Iron Mask King went to sea to destroy the place where the artillery was made, killed those people, and destroyed those drawings!"
Yan Qinghan's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe his ears, looking at me in horror.
"As for the guns I bought," I said coldly...... "I had already been disposed of by my mother before the Iron Mask King went to sea. β
ββ¦β¦β
"Destroyed."
ββ¦β¦β
"I can't find it."
Every time I say a word, Yan Qinghan's face sinks a little, and the light in his eyes can also dim a little.
In the end, I said: "Today's game is to let everyone understand, don't think about dominating the world, you can't even help a small mountain!" β
When I said this, everyone around me seemed to wake up.
But the truth is, that's it.
Some people can control the whole world, but they can't control anyone's heart; Some people can win all the love, but they may not really be able to win the person they want to get.
And those who want to dominate the world may not even be able to occupy a mountain.
This is reality, this is reality, this is - the world is impermanent!
After I finished saying this, Yan Qinghan seemed to have his last breath taken away, and the whole person was paralyzed there, for a long time, without a sound.
I stood up slowly, glanced down at him, and then turned back to Xue Muhua and said, "Take him out." If you have anything to say, go out and talk about it. β
Xue Muhua was also neat, nodded and immediately walked over to help him up.
This time, Yan Qinghan didn't struggle anymore, and didn't even move at all, just let her help her up, and stumbled out.
Just when everyone was about to walk out of the stone gate, a guard who walked at the end and checked the corpses all over the ground suddenly said "Huh", everyone turned around, and saw him pick up a person from the ground who was covered in blood and was completely unconscious: "Wei Gongzi? β
β¦β¦
Wei Zhengbang?!
Everyone was a little stunned for a while.
Xue Muhua looked back, and his face changed slightly.
At this time, we stopped talking, Pei Yuanfeng's eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and he only asked, "Are you still alive?" β
The guard put his hand to his mouth and nose and probed: "Like, there is still a little bit of ......."
This time, Pei Yuanfeng didn't hesitate, only to see him turn around and say without looking back: "Take him with you." β
The guard nodded in response, and then carried Wei Zhengbang, who was completely unconscious and was even dripping blood, on his shoulders, and then a group of us hurriedly walked out of the stone room and hurried up.
It was difficult to go down from above, and it was not easy to go up from below, the air around me was getting hotter and hotter, as if it was about to ignite the corners of our clothes and hair at any moment, I kept breaking out in a cold sweat, but as soon as the cold sweat came out, it was dried, and my face was covered with stains after sweat and blood had dried up, and I looked extraordinarily wolfish, and the exhaled breath had become hot and burning almost in my mouth and nose, and I was almost about to bleed.
And we went up all the way, Liu Qinghan was supported by me, and the wounds on his shoulders were constantly torn, and the blood kept flowing out, falling on the path drop by drop.
I just felt my eyes red, and I looked down at him, "Are you- alright?" β
He trembled terribly, and it took a lot of effort to raise his head and look at me at this time, but a faint smile appeared on his pale face: "Don't worry, you can't die." β
ββ¦β¦β
I bit my lower lip and didn't speak.
His words didn't just comfort me, I took a look, and there was only one injury on his shoulder, not to the point, but now the bleeding is not stopping, and he needs to wait for medical treatment after going out, but a miracle doctor like Xue Muhua is here, and his injury is indeed deadly.
It's just that looking at his pale face and dark eyes, as well as the bloody wound, I feel a tingling pain.
"Your woundsβ"
"I stabbed it."
Xiao Yusheng's voice came from the front, and when I heard it, I sighed in my heart, raised my head to look at their backs, and couldn't believe my ears: "What did you say?" β
"I stabbed it."
He said as he walked with great effort, without looking back.
"Why?!"
This time, he didn't speak, and Yan Qinghan, who was walking behind us, said, "Because as soon as we entered here, we all went crazy." β
I looked back at him again.
Usually he was sick and weak, and his face was always pale and bloodless, but just now, he received such a blow, which was probably the most difficult time in his life. Looking at him at this time, even in the flickering firelight, his face did not have the slightest ruddyness, on the contrary, there was a kind of dead gray in the paleness.
My heart sank, and although I still had a lot of questions, I didn't ask him any more.
On the contrary, it was Liu Qinghan, he gritted his teeth, and said slowly: "According to the instructions on the map, I and Xiao Gongzi came here first, but just when we found the entrance to the cave and were about to enter the cave, something happened. β
"What's wrong?"
He didn't speak, but laboriously glanced up at Xiao Yusheng's back, and I followed his gaze, Xiao Yusheng still didn't look back, only said sullenly: "When I was at the entrance of the cave, I felt that the situation here was not quite right, but the map they gave still marked that it should be here, so we continued to go down, but the further down we went, the strange smell I smelled, so I used the secret breathing technique of the academy, originally just to get better, butββ"
"But how?"
"I feel that there is something moving in this mountain."
ββ¦β¦οΌβ
When he said this, his own breath was also a little heavier, Pei Yuanfeng didn't stop, only turned his head to look at him: "What is it?" β
"I can't feel anything specifically, because the mountain is too big, and we are climbing too high, and what I feel moving is at the bottom of the mountain, very deep, deep."
"So, you're going to go inside?"
"At first, I suspect that the Iron Mask King may have hidden things in the mountains and arranged some guards; Second, the order of the head of the family is to find the Francophone artillery, and we can't go back empty-handed. β
I couldn't help but sneer in my heart.
Pei Yuanfeng said: "And then? β
Then we started going down, but the more we went, the more wrong it became. Not only is it hot underneath, but it also tastes strange. β
I nodded, it was the strange smell I had smelled as we entered the trail.
Moreover, they were the first to enter the mountain road, and I was afraid that no one had entered it for a long time, and the smell would be stronger and heavier than when we entered.
"I feel more and more that something is wrong, and the thing I feel with the Breathing Secret Technique, I feel more and more that it is huge, different from anything I have perceived in the past, and there is no way to compare with it, I feel that something is wrong, so I let everyone go back."
"Then you-"
I just wanted to ask why we were all in the stone room when we arrived since we went back, but when I looked back at Yan Qinghan behind me, I suddenly understood.
Xiao Yusheng really said: "But as soon as we retreated to the entrance of the cave, Yan Gongzi appeared. β
"And then, you guys got into a fight?"
"He brought a lot of people, and it was dark, so we were ambushed as soon as we got out of the mountain road, and there was no way to get out, so we had to retreat inside. We went in, and they went in. β
I frowned and glared back at Yan Qinghan.
At this time, he didn't care about these things, even our feelings, obviously, the matter of "Franco's cannon has already been destroyed" gave him too much blow, maybe he had been holding such a hope for so many years, so that he would persist no matter what happened, but now, all hope has been shattered, and he has been completely emptied.
For some reason, I felt a little gloomy in my heart.
At this time, Pei Yuanfeng said: "Then, you retreated to the bottom?" β
"Yes." Xiao Yusheng frowned, as if he remembered something that made him frightened and uneasy, and when he spoke, even his voice trembled a little, and he said: "When we go down, the more we go, the more my head swells, as if there are many voices shouting in my ears, and these people I brought are all delirious, and they want to rush up and fight with them to the death." β
Pei Yuanfeng said: "There are not many of you, and if you meet on such a narrow road, no matter how high your kung fu is, it will be nine deaths and one life if you rush up." β
Xiao Yusheng nodded and said: "At that time, only my senior brother and I were still a little sober, and when we saw the stone gate, we thought that there would be a Franc machine cannon hidden inside, and we could go in to see what was going on, and we could also dodge it a little." β
I hurriedly asked, "What's next?" β
At this time, Xiao Yusheng's footsteps even stopped, he turned his head and looked at the narrow mountain road, as if he saw the closed stone gate before, as well as the huge empty stone room, and the look of fear on his face and eyes almost jumped out.
"What the hell is going on?"
He didn't answer, and at this time, Liu Qinghan, who had been silent, spoke.
"As soon as I got in, everybody went crazy."
I turned my head to look at him, "What?!" β
"Crazy!"
He repeated, I don't know if it was because of the pain in his shoulder, or because of the fear he felt from the memory, his voice trembled: "The people we brought, along with the people brought by Yan Qinghan, are all crazy. Like a beast that has lost its mind and can only fight, they began to kill everyone around them desperately, regardless of the identity of the other party, and whether the other person was dead or not. β
ββ¦β¦οΌβ
I looked at him in horror.
The sweat on his face trickled out, soaked with the blood, and slowly flowed down his forehead, but before it could flow, it was dried by the scorching temperature around him, leaving blood marks one after another, which was very terrifying.
But what was even more terrifying was his almost desperate, fearful light.
He was silent for a long time before he said to me, "You can't imagine it. β
ββ¦β¦β
"My tuna technique - when I was only in the capital, the teacher taught me some roughly, so I can only barely maintain my sanity, but I can't do anything."
I subconsciously clenched my fists.
At this time, I also fully understood that the Iron Mask King actually had two sets of means to kill the people here!
The first is that in this mountain road, the strange miasma in the stone chamber will make people lose their minds and become crazy and murderous, as long as the person who enters the mountain road inhales that miasma will start to kill each other, so that most of the people are dead; But even that wasn't enough, he had lived at sea for so many years, and he was a well-informed Iron Mask King on the steppe, and he probably understood the cause of the fire in the mountains better, and he observed the signs more carefully, so even if we didn't kill each other in that stone chamber, the flames of a whole mountain would be enough to kill us all, including all the people on this island!
I couldn't help but shudder at the thought of this.
He's so thoughtful, so ruthless.
Perhaps for him, for the sake of great good, regardless of small evils, the death of a few or dozens of people can avoid future wars, but how innocent are the people who were plotted by him, trapped in the stone chamber, and killed like wild beasts?
Thinking of this, I was also a little confused for a while, and even couldn't tell whether it was right or wrong, so I could only shake my head fiercely, put away the messy thoughts, looked back at Liu Qinghan, and asked, "Then your injury is also-"
He didn't speak, but Xiao Yusheng said, "It's Yan Gongzi who fights with me." At that time, the scene was too chaotic, my breathing technique was interrupted, and I couldn't control myself a little, only full of killing intent, and wanted to kill all the people in it, so that sword, I was going to stab Yan Gongzi in the chest. β
I immediately understood, and looked down at Liu Qinghan: "You-you help him block that sword?" β
ββ¦β¦β
"You, are you also using the spitting technique?"
I didn't know what to say for a while, after all, he saved my cousin, but such a flesh and blood body to block Xiao Yusheng's sword, I felt a little angry when I thought about it, maybe I had been in this mountain road for a long time, people were a little confused, and simply sarcastic him.
"Who do you think you are? Amitabha? Or is it contemplation? Do you have to take care of all the things of this world? Can you manage it? β
He looked at me and didn't say anything.
After a while, he said in a low voice, "I am the teacher's disciple." β
ββ¦β¦β
"I can't take care of anything else, and I won't take care of it, but this thing has to be managed."
ββ¦β¦β
"Fu Badai's apprentices killed each other, and it was a matter of insulting the teacher to spread it, not only the teacher has no face, Xishan Academy has no face, and I am in the imperial court, and I am also very undignified."
ββ¦β¦β
"I can't watch this happen."
I was speechless for a moment, and I couldn't cope.
Yes, he took care of everything, Fu Badai's reputation, the face of Xishan Academy, and his prestige in the imperial court.
But it was almost a life in exchange.
I hated him so much in my heart, but I didn't know what else to say, so I grabbed his wrist and helped him to speed up.
This narrow mountain road seems to have no end, the more we walk, the more irritable our hearts become, I even heard the sound of "roar" from Yan Qinghan's throat, as if the angry beast was roaring, Pei Yuanfeng couldn't help but look back at Xue Muhua, I was also very worried, but I saw Xue Muhua very calmly holding him with one hand, and gently rubbing some acupuncture points on the back of his head with the other hand, and when I looked up at her, I said very calmly: "Don't worry, it's okay." β
After saying that, her eyes suddenly lit up as she looked ahead.
We felt something, and hurriedly looked back, only to see that the narrow and winding mountain road ahead had finally come to an end, and the intersection was just ahead, and we even saw a faint, milky white light and mist coming in from the outside.
It's almost dawn!
In any case, after such a night, we were almost at the exit, and when we reached the end, we suddenly lifted our spirits, and all of us showed happy expressions, and hurriedly cheered up and walked out.
But just as we were about to go up, suddenly, there was a rumbling, deafening loud noise in our ears.
All of a sudden, everyone froze.
I thought it was thunder in the sky, or that the battle on the west coast was still raging, but when I listened closely, I found that I couldn't tell whether the loud noise came from the thick clouds in the sky or from the bottom of the mountain that was more than 10,000 feet high at my feet.
However, the whole mountain began to shake! Old didn't look back, only said sullenly: "When I was at the entrance of the cave, I felt that the situation here was not quite right, but the map they gave still marked that it should be here, so we continued to go down, but the further down we went, the more we smelled a strange smell, so I used the secret breathing technique of the academy, originally just to get better, but-"
"But how?"
"I feel that there is something moving in this mountain."

Thinking of this, I was also a little confused for a while, and even couldn't tell whether it was right or wrong, so I could only shake my head fiercely, put away the messy thoughts, looked back at Liu Qinghan, and asked, "Then your injury is also-"
He didn't speak, but Xiao Yusheng said, "It's Yan Gongzi who fights with me." At that time, the scene was too chaotic, my breathing technique was interrupted, and I couldn't control myself a little, only full of killing intent, and wanted to kill all the people in it, so that sword, I was going to stab Yan Gongzi in the chest. β
I immediately understood, and looked down at Liu Qinghan: "You-you help him block that sword?" β
ββ¦β¦β
"You, are you also using the spitting technique?"
I didn't know what to say for a while, after all, he saved my cousin, but such a flesh and blood body to block Xiao Yusheng's sword, I felt a little angry when I thought about it, maybe I had been in this mountain road for a long time, people were a little confused, and simply sarcastic him.
"Who do you think you are? Amitabha? Or is it contemplation? Do you have to take care of all the things of this world? Can you manage it? β
He looked at me and didn't say anything.
After a while, he said in a low voice, "I am the teacher's disciple." β
ββ¦β¦β
"I can't take care of anything else, and I won't take care of it, but this thing has to be managed."
ββ¦β¦β
"Fu Badai's apprentices killed each other, and it was a matter of insulting the teacher to spread it, not only the teacher has no face, Xishan Academy has no face, and I am in the imperial court, and I am also very undignified."
ββ¦β¦β
"I can't watch this happen."
I was speechless for a moment, and I couldn't cope.
Yes, he took care of everything, Fu Badai's reputation, the face of Xishan Academy, and his prestige in the imperial court.
But it was almost a life in exchange.
I hated him so much in my heart, but I didn't know what else to say, so I grabbed his wrist and helped him to speed up.
This narrow mountain road seems to have no end, the more we walk, the more irritable our hearts become, I even heard the sound of "roar" from Yan Qinghan's throat, as if the angry beast was roaring, Pei Yuanfeng couldn't help but look back at Xue Muhua, I was also very worried, but I saw Xue Muhua very calmly holding him with one hand, and gently rubbing some acupuncture points on the back of his head with the other hand, and when I looked up at her, I said very calmly: "Don't worry, it's okay." β
After saying that, her eyes suddenly lit up as she looked ahead.
We felt something, and hurriedly looked back, only to see that the narrow and winding mountain road ahead had finally come to an end, and the intersection was just ahead, and we even saw a faint, milky white light and mist coming in from the outside.
It's almost dawn!
In any case, after such a night, we were almost at the exit, and when we reached the end, we suddenly lifted our spirits, and all of us showed happy expressions, and hurriedly cheered up and walked out.
But just as we were about to go up, suddenly, there was a rumbling, deafening loud noise in our ears.
All of a sudden, everyone froze.
I thought it was thunder in the sky, or that the battle on the west coast was still raging, but when I listened closely, I found that I couldn't tell whether the loud noise came from the thick clouds in the sky or from the bottom of the mountain that was more than 10,000 feet high at my feet.
However, the whole mountain began to shake!
