Chapter 0081: The Samurai with the Horse

When I woke up again, it was no longer the same place, my hands and feet were tied, and it was pitch black.

I tried to remember what had happened, but I was dizzy and confused, as if I had seen the queen, how she was still alive, or whether she was dead and reprimanded by the queen in the underworld.

I was puzzled, as if I heard a voice, right next to me, it was the sound of snoring, the snoring was very loud, not like the sound of the underworld, judging by the fact that my hands and feet were tied, I was not dead.

I think the snoring sound must have been made by the person who guarded me, and if I made it carefully, there was only one sound, that is, there was only one guard. I tried to twist my body, but I didn't have the strength to move, let alone break free from the ropes, and I only had the strength to breathe.

The pain of the vest hit me one after another, and I felt the beads of sweat on my face dripping down, and I didn't dare to exert myself anymore, and the boundless darkness enveloped me, and my heart was full of despair.

Suddenly, I heard a voice again, coming from a distance, it was very soft, it was a mouse? It was not like it, there was a slight sound of breathing, it must have been a man, was it here to solve me? But why was it sneaky? The voice stopped not far from me, as if to observe the movement around me, and then, as it approached, stopped at a very close distance from me.

I felt his hand reach towards my face, one hand covering my mouth and the other pressing my head. Is this going to break my neck? I closed my eyes in despair, waiting for the last moment, maybe only two seconds left, and my life would end, so quietly.

But I didn't hear the sound of my neck breaking, but a very soft whisper: "I'm here to save you, don't make a sound." Then, lowering my head, I felt the mysterious man grope his way to the place where the snoring sound, and for a moment, only a "click" was heard, and the snoring stopped.

This was the sound of a broken neck, and I was sure that it was the samurai who was guarding me who had had his neck broken. Then, I felt that the man was fumbling to untie the ropes on my body, and my heart jumped wildly, someone really came to save me, who could it be? Could it be Longge? It must be him, he will appear every time I am in danger, and secretly protect me, Hanbao They must have come to the valley, but I don't understand why they don't show up for so long?

"Can you still walk?" Judging by the voice, Runge was still masked.

"Barely yes. "After the binding was released, my hands and feet were a little more numb, but they were still very numb.

"I'll help you go, watch your head. "I felt like I was being held up by him.

I don't know where I am, so I didn't dare to say much, and I didn't have much strength to speak, so I moved slowly with the help of Longge. Every movement was difficult, and the wound on the vest was tearing with the movement of the body. But in order to get out of danger as soon as possible, I gritted my teeth and held on, not letting out a moan.

After a long, long time, I finally saw the light, and I came to the outside of the cave, it was still night, but I could vaguely discern the road.

After a period of walking, the numbness in the legs and feet has disappeared, and I am just a little weak, but I can walk on my own without support. The two of them continued to walk, not talking, feeling strange. After walking a long way, I saw a suspension bridge hanging high above, and I proposed to take a break.

"Longe, where are they, are they okay?" I finally couldn't hold my back and was ready to open the skylight to speak.

"I'm not Longge, and I don't know where Hanbao is?" The man took off his mask, revealing the true face of Lushan, it was indeed not Longge, but he was vaguely familiar.

"Who are you, why did you save me?" I was confused again.

"It was arranged by the king of Ba, and it can also be said that the priest arranged it. The man was no longer silent.

"How is it possible that the priest arranged it?" I was even more puzzled.

"I'm just doing what I'm told. The man put the mask back on.

"Were you the one who saved me last time with a masked face?" I wanted to get something out of his mouth.

"Probably my brother. His reply remained brief.

"Who are you and why did you save me?" I asked.

"We are the warriors in front of the palace of King Ba, I am the younger brother, called Thornwood, and my brother is called Thorn Warrior. The one named Thornwood finally said a few more words.

"How do you know where they're holding me?"

"Yesterday I should have followed Ga for many days, and when I saw him walking in the direction of the deep stream, I followed him quietly, and I was also nearby when you were fighting, but there were three of them, and it was difficult for me to come to the rescue. Thornwood replied.

"Where are we going now, who are we going to meet?" I continued.

Thornwood didn't answer immediately, and took out a small bronze military holder from his back pocket and handed it to me.

"You take a few sips of this. "Concise again.

"What's in there?" I don't know.

"An antidote to alleviate Gu poison. "Continue to be concise and to the point.

"How do you know that I have been poisoned by Gu, and how can I have an antidote?" I am getting more and more confused, is he the king of Ba or the queen's person?

"King Lao Ba has already seen that you have also fallen for the queen's Gu, so he saves a little in the tea he gives him every day for emergency use. "This thorn wood has to answer all questions, not like a stuffy gourd.

"King Ba already knew ......, why did you leave the antidote for me?"

"Don't ask so much now, save some effort, we have one more thing to deal with. The thorn replied and drew a knife from his pocket, motioned for me to turn around, and untied the linen "bandage" that was wrapped around my body.

"You have to bear with it now, I have to help you take care of the wound, or it will fester. Thornwood handed me the scabbard again: "Bite it in the mouth." ”

A sharp sting was followed by a sharp stinging pain as the thornwood scraped and scavenged around my wound. The pain in my heart kept coming, and I bit the scabbard with all my might, and beads of sweat poured out of my head.

Oh my God, I'm a modern man undergoing an ancient surgery.

After scraping, Thornwood crumpled a few leaves, stuffed them into the wound, and then wrapped the dirty linen cloth again, and the operation was completed.

"I'm going to take you to the other side of the stream now, and if you're lucky, you can get home alive. Thornwood spoke again.

"I can't go over now, I still have an important matter to finish. I pleaded.

"You can't control the affairs of Pakistan, it's better to go back. Thornwood insisted.

"Lia is still in the Queen's hands, and I can't go back. "I screwed it up too.

"Liya has been personally guarded by Ga for many days, saving her is undoubtedly a dead end, and now they are afraid that they have found out that you have escaped, and it is still too late to hurry up and leave before they have chased after her. Thornwood earnestly persuaded.

"Liya I must save it, and now I'm going back to get something important. "I remembered my cane gun.

"Why are you so stubborn? You really don't have to worry about the affairs of Pakistan. Thornwood was in a hurry.

"I can ignore the affairs of Pakistan, but I must save Liya. I told him firmly.

"I've brought you here anyway, and it's your business whether you can go back or not, but if you are in danger again, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to save you. "Thornwood is actually a very friendly person, as long as he opens the conversation, even a chatterbox.

"But before we break up, I have a few more questions for you. "I'm trying to figure something out.

"Can I ask you a question before I answer your question?"

"It doesn't matter, I know everything. I smiled in response.

"Are you really the envoy of the Emperor, can you tell me the real situation outside?" said Thornwood's question, just like all the people in the valley - all of them were curious cats.

"With your and your stabbing abilities, why don't you go out of the valley and see for yourself?" I asked him, but I didn't answer his question about the true and false messengers.

"Ever since he fled here more than 2,000 years ago, the old priest decreed that no one should discuss the matter of leaving the valley, and that those who were found to be guilty should be killed. Thornwood replied cautiously, for fear that someone would hear it.

"No wonder, are they Namo and Zag climbing up the cliffs without anyone noticing?" I asked again.

"There are only two hunters in the valley who can climb the cliffs, and that's because of the need to gather spirits, but they are still not allowed to go outside the valley. Thornwood explained.

"I see. "That's when I fully understood.

"There is one more thing that I don't understand, why the king of Ba is willing to be the puppet of the priest and let him monopolize power. "I have one more question.

"For 2,000 years, the priest's family has been loyal to the country of Ba, and it is precisely because the king of Lao Ba is under the control of the queen and is powerless, and he is afraid that the queen will be autocratic and misleading the country, so he has to hand over the power to the priest. ”

"In your mind, are the priests good or bad?" I seemed to ask Thornwood, and I seemed to ask myself.

Thornwood didn't say anything more, but looked at me with inquisitive eyes, waiting for me to speak. I didn't answer immediately, and took out my phone and pocket flashlight from my pocket, these two things were not taken away, but only my short sword, and it seemed that Gadori thought that only cold weapons were a threat.

I calmly turned on the power of the phone, turned on the flashlight, and immediately saw the surprised eyes of the thornwood.

"Now the world beyond the valley is called the age of science, and there are many novel inventions, such as this thing called a flashlight, which can be used as a torch. I looked at Thornwood's surprised eyes and said.

"This thing is called a mobile phone, and it can talk to people tens of thousands of kilometers away. I saw Thornwood's eyes widen and his tongue sticking out.

"There are also many boats made of iron that can walk in the water, and there are many birds made of iron that can fly in the sky. "I saw Thornwood's head raised, looking up at the night sky, his eyes misty, just as Han Bao had heard from me.

"Is it like that big bird with dragonfly wings and a thunderous cry?" said Thornwood, still looking up, as if he had seen a helicopter again.

"That's just one of the Iron Birds. I replied with a smile.

"It turns out that the world beyond the valley is so wonderful. Thornwood muttered to himself, I felt like another rare treasure was about to appear.
