Chapter 538: Forced to Death
Fighting them is death, and jumping down is death.
There could be a river below the cliff, and jumping off it wouldn't be so complete as death, but if you fought them......
People like ** will definitely not let go of themselves.
So let's take a gamble, I'd rather die at the bottom of a cliff than die at the hands of a traitor.
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhanji said to the soldiers in front of him with a serious face: "Brothers, if we fight them here, we will die, and if we jump, I would rather die at the bottom of the cliff than die at the hands of traitors!" ”
When the soldiers heard Zhu Zhanji's words, they nodded and said, "We are willing to follow His Royal Highness Taisun!" ”
Then Zhu Zhanji's heart was ruthless, and he jumped straight down with his eyes closed, while the others also followed behind the imperial grandson and jumped down together.
Seeing such a scene, he immediately became ecstatic, this time, he forced his grandson to a dead end.
He probably never thought that Zhu Zhanji and the others would be so ruthless, and they dared to jump directly in the face of the cliff.
** Walked forward to the edge of the cliff, he wanted to see with his own eyes whether the cliff was deep or not.
** stretched his head forward, only to see a fog at the bottom of the cliff, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
He picked up a stone at his feet and threw it towards the outside of the cliff, testing what was going on beneath it.
After the stone was thrown, his ears were pricked up to listen, and after a while, he heard nothing, and then he felt that the cliff was bottomless.
Zhu Zhanji and the others must have died if they jumped down, and they left with confidence when they thought of this.
Under the cliff, all I heard was "Bang! With a bang, Zhu Zhanji fell straight to the ground.
It turned out that there was a flat land under the cliff, and because it was foggy from above, this flat land could not be seen.
Zhu Zhanji endured the pain and got up from the ground.
Glancing around, he saw that his companion was still lying on the ground, and he hurriedly stepped forward to help the others up.
After everyone woke up, one of the soldiers said excitedly: "Your Royal Highness! We're not dead! ”
Zhu Zhanji bowed his head and said with a smile: "Hmm." ”
Zhu Zhanji was still very satisfied with this result, and made a ruthless bet to jump off the cliff, but he didn't expect to make the right bet.
Another soldier said loudly: "If you don't die in a great disaster, you will be blessed!" ”
Zhu Zhanji said: "Let's not be too happy, this is just a flat land under the cliff, we fall in the middle of the cliff, let's think about how to go up first." ”
"Let's count the number of people first, and then we start looking for directions."
Everyone replied, "Yes!" His Royal Highness! ”
As soon as the words fell, Zhu Zhanji began to count the people, but he didn't expect that there were only a few dozen or so people left.
Those who shot on it were shot to death, and only those lucky enough to jump down landed here.
These people saw that there were only so many brothers left around them, and everyone's hearts were a little sad, and their eyes were red.
Zhu Zhanji's heart is not very comfortable, but he has to be sober now, and he still has to take these people out of here.
Zhu Zhanji straightened his expression and said, "Don't be sad first, let's find a way out, we can't be trapped here all the time." ”
When the crowd heard the voice, their minds were pulled back, and indeed they couldn't waste their time here.
After stopping his sadness, Zhu Zhanji took them around the mountainside, and did not find any way up or down, which made Zhu Zhanji a little melancholy.
Are they going to be stuck here like this? Here they can't bring news to Zhu Di, and they can't send messages, as if they are isolated from the world.
Everyone else is also melancholy, although they are not dead now, but it is not a good thing to be trapped here.
A group of people were groping on the cliff, hoping to find something.
"His Royal Highness! Come on! There's movement here! An exclamation rang out.
The cliff he was touching was a little loose, as if it was about to collapse at the slightest effort.
When Zhu Zhanji heard the voice, he hurriedly walked towards him, and the others also walked behind Zhu Zhanji.
The soldier retreated, Zhu Zhanji touched it with his hand, and as soon as he exerted his strength, the cliff wall collapsed, and what caught his eye was a cave.
Zhu Zhanji's eyes flashed with a hint of joy, and he said: "We won't be able to leave here for a while, everyone will live in this cave, and it won't be cold here at night." ”
Everyone nodded, and Zhu Zhanji led them into the cave together.
In the cave, Zhu Zhanji's eyes were searching, and sure enough, he saw something useful.
They must not be the only ones who have been dropped here, and it is estimated that people have also been to this cave before, so there will be leftovers on this ground.
Zhu Zhanji was ecstatic in his heart, since there were people who had been here before, there must be a way out when people were not here now.
Since there is a way out, then rest assured.
Zhu Zhanji brought the remaining torches from others, and the soldiers lit them with the fire folds they carried.
A dozen people in the cave sat around the flames and began to discuss what was next.
Zhu Zhanji opened his mouth and said: "I just made an inspection and found that people have been to this cave before, which means that there is still a way out here. ”
A soldier surnamed Liu said: "Your Royal Highness, then we have to find the exit as soon as possible, the emperor probably didn't know that we were ambushed on the way back." ”
Another soldier surnamed Tian said: "Your Majesty, they must still be waiting for our grain and grass, and we have lost the grain and grass, what can we do now." ”
Zhu Zhanji said: "Don't worry, we will definitely come back with grain and grass, and I will not let go of that Han Zheng!" ”
"Now let's rest for a while, and when we have enough strength, we'll start to find a way out."
Everyone answered, "Yes." ”
After a short rest, they began to move.
Zhu Zhanji instructed: "Half of the people stay in the cave to see if there is any exit, and the rest of the people go out with me to look for it, their eyes should shine brightly, and don't miss any corner!" ”
After that, Zhu Zhanji took a small group of people out of the cave.
Zhu Zhanji's eyes stared carefully at the road under his feet, and finally his hard work paid off, and he found a particularly steep slope in the corner of the cliff.
Zhu Zhanji shouted: "Come and see!" There's a steep slope here! ”
The others came around, and someone said, "With such a steep slope, you should be careful, if you don't pay attention, you will slide down." ”
Zhu Zhanji said: "There is no other way, only this road can be walked, and when we find the way, we will go back to the cave first and discuss it." ”
Inside the cave.
Zhu Zhanji opened his mouth and said: "We have found a slope that we can go down, but the slope is very steep, so we must be careful when we go down." ”
