Chapter 222: Life and Death
Previous Chapter: Chapter 221 Induction
The soft and slow voice was still in the air, and the figure of the pavilion master had been lost on the cliff floor. Read the full text of the latest chapter.
The archdeacon of Lingnan West Road looked stunned, and the pavilion master ...... Do you want to go there in person?
***
Four thousand miles away, in the southern bay, 100,000 people have gathered. When many people rushed to the beach, they immediately sat on the ground tired and gasped for breath, but when they came back to this breath, they immediately put themselves into the project according to the organization and shards.
The sound of people and rumbling on the sea and land is endless, boats, human figures, and countless stones are carried by people on the construction site in bamboo baskets, lifted by excavators and cranes, and thrown into the far sea. There are also countless people on the land who are shuttling and busy, wood, bamboo, tung oil, lime, etc. are all transported by pack wagons, oxen and donkeys, countless men and women are weaving bamboo baskets, ropes, stirring limestone mortar, there are also stone crushers and mixers roaring under the pull of manpower and animal power, and a boatload of limestone mortar is transported to the sea.
Under the morning light, huge square walls had been erected on the sea where the volcano was located, six feet above the sea, and it looked like the last Taoist priest who had not dug up the collapsed volcano.2 But this is exactly the way people have taken to open up the sea after consultation.
Because it is not certain where the princess of Qin is pressed, it is impossible to use the method of sinking a well-although the location of the crater is known, but the trend of the tunnel is not certain, who knows whether it is underground to the east or west? Who knows how much of an incline it will go down? You can't work hard to open a big hole, or even split half of the mountain, only to find out that His Highness is not here! So, it can only be that the whole volcano is pushed.
But it's a huge undertaking.
This volcanic island is more than thirty miles east and west on the surface of the sea - the length of the water will only be longer than this, and the height of the volcano from the bottom of the sea has been explored by the late stage of the cave realm by the master of the late stage of the cave realm, more than one hundred and fifty zhang. According to the Jin king's speculation, the location of the princess of Qin who went deep into the volcanic tunnel was about 80 zhang to 100 zhang under the crater, which means that people must knock down a volcanic mountain range that is 30 miles long from east to west, 6 or 7 miles wide from north to south, and as high as 100 zhang.
If it was on the ground, dozens of Cave True Realm Grandmasters would bombard it day and night, and they would be able to bulldoze it for a few days or more than ten days without sleep.
But it's under the sea!
Pushing a mountain under the sea is 100 times more difficult.
Even if it is a Cave True Realm Grandmaster, the power of True Qi when it encounters the resistance of sea water is greatly reduced. And other martial artists can't turn to underwater breathing if they don't reach the Cave True Realm, not to mention that they have to contribute underwater strength, and the Ascending Extreme Realm can't support it for long. Even if there are gas supply cylinders for diving fortifications, how long can a bottle of gas last when it is so labor-intensive underwater? What's more, the spare gas supply cylinders of the sailor have been used up, and it will take time to mobilize them from other places, and such a large quantity will have to be produced in the factory temporarily. Therefore, many ordinary people can only go into the water to chisel and have to ventilate the water, and this efficiency can not be bulldozed for a year. The machinery of the fortification ship could not penetrate deeply, and the longest drill pipe was no more than three feet. ――How?
But the greatness of man lies in infinite wisdom and creativity, as the saying goes, three stinkers synthesize one Zhuge Liang, not to mention that there are tens of thousands of people here? Some people have proposed a dam because the biggest difficulty is to dig it underwater, so as to isolate the seawater. It is inferred that the princess of Qin Guo should not go to the edge of the volcano, so the edge of the volcano around fifty zhang can be considered to be excluded, so a four-sided embankment was built here, and the sea water was pumped out before opening the mountain. Some people added that the pressure of building such a large embankment to withstand the beating of the sea on all sides is too great, so it is better to divide it into pieces and leave a passage of sea water in the middle to reduce the difficulty of building the embankment. In addition, building a small levee can immediately pump water and dig it, which is more efficient than building just one levee. According to the experience of sinking wells, some people put forward yì, divide a well area in each embankment, dig down, use bamboo and wood to frame scaffolding, go deep into the well, everyone can dig on the derrick, so that you can give full play to everyone's strength, when thousands of wells are dug to complete, and then knock down the wall between all the wells, it is relatively easy. Moreover, I can't tell you in which well was excavated, and the princess of Qin was discovered in advance, which is also faster than the progress of the flat push. ……
After intense discussions, the temporary headquarters composed of military and political officials and representatives of the grandmaster quickly determined the regulations for the opening of the mountain, and immediately divided the personnel areas and tasks into separate areas, and carried them out separately. Everyone is fully utilized, everyone can do what they can, there is no idle, and the people who come behind also have special people in charge, assign tasks according to their ability, and join in each area.
After the efforts of the people, three hours after the completion of all the embankments, the volcano was dug down 30 zhang. Because after the sea water was cut off, the martial arts masters exerted great power. But from the position where the princess of Qin was crushed by the collapse, it is conservatively estimated that there are still forty zhang.
In the excavation, many corpses were excavated one after another, and there were excavations in each dug well, to be precise, it was no longer a corpse, but a mass of flesh and blood, and then it was disappointing but faintly glad - these were not His Royal Highness Qin Guo! Because the flesh and blood were black pieces of clothes, and the princess of Qin was wearing a purple robe.
People on the construction site, which is thirty miles long from east to west, are shouting: "Hey, hey, hey! Hey, hey, hey! …… Hail to Your Highness! Hey, hey, hey! ...... "The people who hang the baskets and carry the baskets out of the baskets one by one, carrying away the gravel, sweating like rain, roaring this trumpet. At first, I didn't know which person was standing on the embankment to pick up the basket and fall the rock, but when the two of them poured the stone together and shouted "one, two, three!" Hail to Your Highness! And it spread quickly. Of course, this is just a good prayer blessing, because everyone knows that it is impossible for His Highness Qin Guo to be alive. But people always have the idea of miracles in their hearts, and it is also to inspire their own courage, to motivate themselves, to persevere—so that people on the volcano site, on the boat, and on the shore will add the sentence "Your Highness, the starry sky of the great blessings and desolation, immortal in the starry sky, read the full text!" Those who do not shout the trumpet will also follow the movements of their hands, and silently chant "Hail Hail Your Highness!" when they suddenly exert force! Hey! ”
The will of 100,000 people, the desire of 100,000 people, at this time in the South Bay, a strong unanimity, gathered together.
It's an invisible force.
And this invisible power, no one can see, it does not emanate into the air and dissipate, but slowly seeps into the volcanic rock, seeping in.
……
Twelve hours have passed, and King Jin's heart has long been cold and desperate, but it is only because of the idea of "taking Ah Zhen back" that he has not been knocked down by despair. His true qi was exhausted again and again, until he had no strength, and then he swept outside the well to meditate. This time, he had just recovered his true qi and was about to go into the well, when he suddenly felt something in his heart, turned around suddenly, and looked up into the distance.
Then he froze.
At the top of the twenty zhang high mainmast, a woman in plain clothes suddenly appeared, with a five-colored silk silk tied around her waist, and the five-colored silk spikes swayed slightly in the wind, as if suddenly appeared from the clouds, towering, and sacred momentum. Everyone looked up and turned their heads because of the inexplicable feeling in their hearts, and when many people saw her, their eyes widened and their mouths opened, but they found that their exclamations did not come out, because at that moment they pressed their throats, and they couldn't help but hold their breath.
"Good work." The soft voice sounded in everyone's ears, whether it was the people on the embankment, the people on the well, the people under the well, or the people on the boat, or the people on the shore, all of them suddenly warmed their hearts, as if their hard work was recognized by the most important person, their noses were sour, warm, joyful, and moved, and involuntarily, everyone's movements stopped, tilted their heads, raised their heads, turned their heads, just wanted to see where the voice came from, and moved themselves to tears.
King Jin was already in tears.
- Pavilion Master!
It's the master of the Sword Pavilion!
He didn't know this innate powerhouse, who was said to be the same as the Taiqing Sect, a powerhouse who had lived for more than three hundred years, and one of the strongest people in the world. But he knows that there are many women in the world who are tied with five-colored silk, but there is only one person who has the power that can not resist at all just by seeing and hearing.
Because her will is the rule.
- The strongest heart sword in the world.
The warriors all rose from all over the place, and their eyes looking at the main mast were shocked and excited, especially the Cave True Realm Grandmaster who felt the most power, even if he didn't know who this was, he instantly determined in his heart-
It's a naive!
All the warriors were excited—this was an innate being!
This is an innate grandmaster, ahhhh
Congenital does not walk in the world, and the vast majority of martial artists may not have the opportunity to see Congenital in their lives, but today they met one! ――Right in front of you, not in the sky!
All the warriors were excited and saluted in reverence.
King Jin saluted and said in a respectful voice: "Tang Tiance Academy, King Li Zaiyi of Jin see Mr. Mo Xu." ”
The faces of very few Grandmasters changed, and their expressions became shocked in an instant, but they were even more solemn and reverent.
Mo Xu is not a personal name, it is a surname.
To be precise, there are two surnames, Mo of the Mojia Wuzong and Xu of the surname Xu.
And together, they represent only one person.
- Sword Pavilion Master, Mo Xu Li.
Even if other ordinary people who are not martial artists don't know who this is, from the attitude of King Jin, they also know that this must be a master with a very high status and very high strength, so that King Jin and all the grandmasters present must be respectful and saluting.
People couldn't help but salute.
"Come up." The Pavilion Master said the second sentence.
The voice was still soft, no one answered, no one ordered, but everyone involuntarily obeyed, and the people under the well climbed up on the scaffolding, but there was not much place to stand outside the well, so they stood densely on the scaffolding, and looked hard in the direction of the majestic ship.
The Pavilion Master took a step forward.
It looked like she was just taking a normal step forward, but in the next moment, her person was already standing at the mouth of a well.
Of course, these wells are not regular circles, each well is very large, with a diameter of 20 zhang, to be precise, it is not a well, it is a sinkhole.
At this time, the thousands of people on the scaffolding around the wall of this well, together with the hundreds of people on the well, all felt a soft force, let themselves soar into the air, and landed smoothly on the embankment in the distance, the "ah" of the people soaring and the shocked "ah" of the onlookers were pressed in the throat, and no one made a sound, as if screaming, all of which were disturbed and disrespectful to this person.
As soon as the pavilion master's white palm was stretched, a three-zhang long drill pipe flew up and landed in her hand.
She swung the drill pipe into the giant well.
Everybody's thinking-
His Highness is right down the well.
No one hesitated, no one doubted, everyone affirmed without hesitation, it seemed that trust arose when they saw this person, it didn't matter who she was, it was a kind of trust from the bottom of their hearts. And when the Cave True Realm Grandmasters suddenly realized this, they were extremely terrified in their hearts, who could advance to the Grandmaster Realm, which one was not strong-willed and determined? How powerful is this one who easily influences their will? This kind of strength even surpassed the shock of the innate grandmaster's force to them.
In the whirring, countless gray-brown rocks flew out of the well, but like docile sheep, they landed in a circle outside the well in a regular manner, and soon a crater was built outside the huge well with a radius of twenty zhang.
All ordinary people were dumbfounded, watching this scene as if they were watching a miracle.
The gray-brown crater grew taller and higher, and the pavilion master stood taller and taller.
When the mountain was forty zhang out, the figure of the pavilion master flickered and floated into the well.
People stared at each other nervously, holding their breath.
- Find Your Highness!
Only a moment has passed, but it seems like a long time.
The figure of the pavilion master appeared on the crater again, and in her hands-
Holding a person horizontally.
It's a person, a whole person, not blood slag, blood clots, blood clumps.
The man's purple robe swayed in the wind.
The pavilion master said the third sentence: "His Royal Highness Qin Guo is still alive. ”
Everyone was stunned, like a clay wooden fetus, and their minds echoed that they were still alive...... Alive...... Live!
King Jin's tears fell.
Tears fell from everyone's eyes.
People can't believe that a miracle really happened! But the miracle really happened!
Suddenly, I don't know who it was, I shouted excitedly, "Long live the latest chapter of the Wensheng world!" The people around him also shouted, "Hooray!" Soon, shouts erupted, and everyone cheered "Hurray!" "Hooray!" It seems that only these two words can vent their excitement and ecstasy.
"Hooray!"
"Hooray!"
"Long live Datang!"
"Long live Your Highness!"
……
"This is a miracle created by your efforts and the will of the princess of the Qin Kingdom." The Pavilion Master said the fourth sentence.
The voice was soft, but it was clearly heard in everyone's ears amid the cheers of 100,000 people.
People wept more joyfully, and shouted more joyfully.
"Hooray!" "Hooray!"
Their efforts were worth it! It's really worth it!
They saved the princess of Qin!
They really saved the princess of Qin!
"Hooray!" "Hooray!"
"Long live Datang!"
"Long live Your Highness!"
……
The pavilion master disappeared on the crater with the princess of Qin in his arms.
But the people were still cheering, the fanatical love was completely unstoppable, people waved their arms, and the people on the shore didn't care who was around them, their hands were dirty or not, and they danced and danced with their arms in arms, singing in various tones while stepping on it. The officers and soldiers laughed and punched each other in the shoulders and chests. On the sailor's boat, the military and political officials who usually don't like each other raised their fists and slammed each other at this time, some officials swayed and sang, and then more officials joined, and everyone felt that everyone was extremely cute at this moment.
The warriors were even more fanatical, as they burst out of their excitement with a strong desire.
That's the power of innateness!
This is the strongest man in the world!
They want to be that, too.
They want to have that kind of power, too.
……
Amid the cheers, seven or eight people jumped into the giant pit at the foot of the crater, they were Liang Lang and seven guards of the Jing'an Division.
-- Since Your Highness is here, the King of Linchuan County and Gao Gao Lang should also be here, and their remains must be collected and brought back to Chang'an.
In the ecstasy that His Highness was still alive, the guards of the Jing'an Division had the grief of losing their comrades.
This kind of joy and sadness made these stiff guards can't help but have red circles in their eyes, especially after seeing the shocking blood mass at the bottom of the pit, tears flowed out.
……
King Jin wept and laughed at the same time, crying and laughing, and after despair, he suddenly felt overjoyed and couldn't help himself, crying and laughing, and suddenly screamed, got up, stepped on a small boat and sailed to the shore.
Ah Zhen is in the Sword Pavilion!
The Pavilion Master must have taken her to the Sword Pavilion.
Ah Zhen must have been injured, very badly injured.
He wants to go to the Sword Pavilion, go to the Sword Pavilion immediately!
