Chapter 609: Secret Passage
Originally, seeing that Qi Jingxing and Princess Yunshan could easily jump over, they thought that the impact of this waterfall was not so great, but now it seems that this impact is really not something that ordinary people can bear.
Just look at the appearance of the person before who was instantly washed down by the water curtain.
It was something that happened in an instant, if it weren't for Qi Jingxing's quick eyes, that person would have been washed into the deep pool a long time ago, even if he was not drowned, he was afraid that he would be washed half to death by the huge momentum of the current.
As for the rescue, it is even more impossible.
Thinking of this, the caution in their hearts suddenly rose countless times.
Qi Jingxing looked at his subordinates through the water curtain, but he didn't urge.
This place is too dangerous, one wrong step is a catastrophe, it is always better to be careful, even he is not sure that he can pull someone in time every time.
Just thinking about it, he suddenly noticed that the surroundings became colder, and his clothes were basically soaked in the moment just now, and the wet clothes that were sticking to his skin were like soft ice, constantly stimulating his skin, and there were goosebumps everywhere on his hands and back.
"Why don't you make a fire and bake your clothes for a while, it's much colder inside than outside?"
He saw Princess Yunshan curled up on the ground with her hands around her, her face was pale, and the water droplets in her hair were shaking slightly with her body, and he couldn't help but say.
He has made great efforts in his own affairs, and this cold is nothing to him, but Princess Yunshan is different, although she also practices martial arts, she is a woman after all, and now everyone's clothes are soaked, and there is no way to take off her outer clothes for her to wear.
"No, I don't."
Princess Yunshan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "The water vapor here is very heavy, and there is no fire to make a fire, so we have to let them come in quickly and leave here."
"How do I get there?"
The space inside the waterfall is not large, except for a few places that can accommodate people, most of them are slippery walls, and the uneven road is difficult to walk, and the cave does not lead to the other side of the waterfall.
It seems, this is a closed cave, that is, it is a dead end.
"There's a passage in the back."
Princess Yunshan stood up, walked to the front of a mountain wall covered with moss and green vines, stretched out her hand and pulled the moss to the side, and after a few pulls, the original appearance covered by green vines was revealed.
"If you climb all the way from this place, you can go straight over the cliffs on both sides and into the river above."
As she spoke, she couldn't help but shiver again, "It's going to be cold in here, you have to get through quickly."
"Okay."
Qi Jingxing nodded, turned around, and saw that the guys outside had gotten a log from somewhere, and one end of the log had already been put in.
In the next second, a person stepped on a log, gritted his teeth and violently passed through the water curtain, although he was still washed away at the moment he came in, but as soon as he crossed the water curtain, the whole person immediately controlled his balance and avoided being carried down by the water.
"General!"
Seeing that he had come in smoothly, the man smiled excitedly.
When the people behind saw that he had succeeded, their hearts were relieved, and with the power of the log, they gritted their teeth and rushed into the water curtain.
After about a quarter of an hour, everyone came through, leaving only a few people outside to meet the line behind.
"Let's go."
Qi Jingxing didn't give them time to rest, and directly followed Princess Yunshan to the entrance of the cave, the cave would be colder than here, if they rested for a while, I was afraid that everyone would have to rest out of the cold.
The entrance to the cave is so narrow that it can only accommodate one person, and in some places it can only be passed by climbing.
The feet of the crowd were slippery and could slide down at any moment, so everyone had iron claws in their hands just to keep them from slipping.
It didn't take long for the light to disappear completely, and they crawled like worms through the dark and damp hole
Coming and going, except for the sound of climbing, the sound of iron armor colliding on clothes, the sound of breathing, the rest is the sound of ticking water.
In such an environment, the senses other than vision become extremely sensitive and clear, and the hole is too small and the passage is long, many people begin to have mild symptoms of breathing difficulties.
"General, how long do we have to climb?"
In the dark, someone couldn't help but whisper a question.
"At this speed, it will probably take more than an hour."
Princess Yunshan's calm voice sounded, "Don't be nervous, don't think about anything else in your mind, treat yourself as dead, or just as a stone, so that you can climb out of here safely, if you are too panicked, you will not die on the road at that time, but will be suffocated here, that is not an ordinary cold."
This slightly mocking voice made everyone stagnate.
"Listen to her!" Qi Jingxing followed.
After a while, someone replied in a muffled voice, "Yes, General."
In this absolute darkness, time lost its meaning, and everyone only felt that time was extremely long, but fortunately, they were all trained, and their physique and mental endurance were much better than ordinary people, and then it was smooth, but at a certain moment, suddenly a person let out a scream.
"What's going on?"
Qi Jingxing frowned and spoke.
After a while, a slightly frightened voice responded, "I don't know what bit my hand."
"It can't be solved here, let's go out and talk about it." Princess Yunshan said coldly; "It's nothing more than some insects and snakes, what's all there to make a fuss about, you should all have poison pills on you, take one, and go out to see what the situation is."
When she had finished speaking, there was no sound.
Also, they are all well-trained guards, and it is really a bit embarrassing to panic at such a small matter.
I don't know how long it took, but the water below me began to defecate significantly, and everyone breathed more smoothly.
Finally, a bright light appeared in front of him, and along with the bright light, there was a huge sound of water rattling, deafening, like ten thousand horses galloping.
Princess Yunshan was overjoyed, gritted her teeth and climbed to the exit first, the exit was the same water curtain, but this water curtain was much smaller than the previous waterfall, she jumped into the water curtain, and then disappeared.
When the people behind saw this scene, they were stunned, and they didn't think too much, they jumped forward with her, and then fell into a waterhole, fortunately, the waterhole was not deep, and it didn't take long for everyone to climb out of the waterhole, only to find that it was really another river here, and the two sides of the river became very flat, and the field of vision was much broader.
