Chapter 135: Dangerous Longshan Road

The wheels creaked over the flat stone face and creaked through the belly of the huge cave, and the wide carriages of the transporters were stuffed with sacks of grain and straw, on which lay three accompanying guards.

On both sides of the tunnel, there will be a fire gathering array every ten meters apart, and there is also a spirit gathering array outside, relying only on a few low-level fire spirit cores is enough to maintain the flame light of this fire gathering array and illuminate this deep and deep tunnel.

The cart walks in the belly of this mountain, but it is very smooth, there is no bump, and this tunnel is quite wide, and the two carts in parallel are not congested, and not far from this tunnel, there is a tunnel of the same width, but that tunnel is the opposite tunnel.

Zhong Tai is not a member of the forbidden army, but a small captain of a logistics battalion under the White Tiger Legion, in charge of a large car, half a month ago, his baggage battalion was transferred to Ziyang County by a letter of order, and now a county under the province of Xiangxi, it is said that this place used to be governed by a barbarian, very remote.

However, after Ziyang Dongguan, he knew that the wild and remote place in his previous impression was so prosperous, and the business and travel convoys were endless, and a wide gravel official road led directly from Dongguan to Ziyang City, a large city with a large scale, but it can be seen that this city should be completed not long ago.

Staying in Ziyang City for a day, after they put down the goods, they continued to move forward empty, but after coming out of Ziyang City, although the official road is still wide and flat, but there is no hustle and bustle of the business caravan, it seems that everything stops in Ziyang City, so I didn't see other convoys all the way, passed a checkpoint, and not long after this checkpoint, there was an endless camp tent in front of me, and a team of patrols walked not far away, a big barracks.

Zhong Tai had never known that there was such a huge barracks in such a place, but he had heard that the forbidden army had a training camp here, but he didn't expect that this training camp would be so huge.

After staying at this base for three days, dealing with a series of formalities, and the people of the forbidden army appeared to tell them a lot of rules and regulations, secrecy regulations, and finally assigned them some transportation tasks, and after they had digested some of them, they set off again.

When their baggage battalion carrying a large amount of supplies was led into the deeper part of this base, a larger and grandiose, spectacular Dragon Head City appeared in front of them, the entire Dragon Head City was based on the mountain, but the mountain shape was carved out of the shape of a dragon's head, and the open giant mouth was the entrance to the Dragon Head City.

After passing the city gate, an amazing city of the belly of the mountain appeared before them, the whole of the mountain seemed to have been hollowed out, covered with tunnels in all directions, and all the way, within a mile distance, a wide domed cave appeared in front of them.

The road they walked seemed to be embedded in the waist, and from here they looked down, and the narrow street below was lined with countless rock shops and huge stone pillars, which made the buildings here look so atmospheric and rough, especially a huge square on the north side, which occupied a large space, and in the middle was a seven-story altar, and opposite the altar, there was a giant bull-headed elephant.

And I don't know if it's an illusion, he always feels that when he looks at the bull-headed elephant, he will feel a strong pressure on his body, which makes him a little breathless.

He was very curious in his heart, but before he came in, the head of the forbidden army told them to talk less and not ask questions, he could only look around with his eyes, and he was dazzled, and although there were a lot of questions in his heart, he could only hold them in his heart.

After Longshou City, the convoy continued to move forward, out of Longshou Mountain, it was an open-air road, the sun shone on the body, very comfortable, and the people in the convoy were talking about everything they had seen before, and they were more curious about where they were going.

In the days that followed, they talked much less, for every day they walked through the mountain tunnels and open roads, and the initial amazement became boring after seeing more, but they continued to walk, and the road still seemed to have no end.

A flash of light shone from the front again, but Zhong Tai had long been accustomed to it, in the past few days, they did not know how many mountains they had crossed, the short one or two hours, the long one half a day, and at night they had to rest in the camp set aside in the belly of the mountain.

The alternation of darkness, light, and back and forth made them all a little immune.

When Zhong Tai's cart passed through the light, the dazzling sunlight shone on his body, making people lazy all over his body, but Zhong Tai soon found out that this time was different, the roaring sound of water sounded in his ears, and the road under his feet was not flat ground, but a large stone bridge.

If it was just an ordinary bridge, Zhong Tai would not be so gaffe, but sitting on the grain and grass pile, looking left and right, it was an abyss canyon more than 100 meters deep, and in the canyon, the dragon-like river roared, flapping, passing through this narrow canyon, and this bridge actually lay across this cliff canyon.

Oh my God, Zhong Tai felt a little weak, the transport truck continued to creak, this suspended stone bridge didn't know how it was built, but it looked very strong, at least their battalion, there were a hundred carts, at least they had traveled on the bridge deck, but the bridge was still stable.

Huh, when the convoy entered the dark mountain again, Zhong Tai came back to his senses, he was really afraid that this bridge was not strong, after all, this bridge did not have stone piers, and the whole crossing was between two mountains, which was really terrifying, but it also added a few topics to the soldiers in the convoy.

Time passed as they continued to advance, and on the tenth day, according to the speed at which they had traveled, they had traveled almost two or three hundred miles, and at last a more hanging place appeared.

This canyon is wider than the previous canyon, and there is still a torrent of water below, and the sound of water is ringing in my ears, but this is not a problem, the problem is that the bridge here is not the hard stone bridge I encountered before, but a giant chain bridge.

Although the bridge deck is still wide, it is a huge iron cable connecting the two sides of the canyon, and the howling wind in the canyon blows, the whole bridge seems to be shaking, and what is even more worrying is the wooden plank laid on the iron cable, which can stop their full cart, and there are hundreds.

Although looking at the suspension, his heart was even more suspenseful, but as the convoy moved forward, Zhong Tai's car still got on the chain bridge.

"Look at you like this is the first time to come to this bridge, don't be so nervous, this bridge has been built for a year and a half, and there are a lot of fleets passing by, and I haven't seen any cars blown down the canyon by a gust of wind, don't worry, as long as you don't startle the beast, it's no problem!"

It was obviously not the first time that the guards guarding the bridge had encountered such a new baggage team as them, and they rode along with the convoy on their mounts, verbally reassuring these nervous baggage soldiers.

"We are the baggage battalion directly under the White Tiger Legion, my name is Zhong Tai, what do you call this brother!"

"Heh, I'm from the logistics battalion of the forbidden army, just call me Shao Er, a few days ago I also saw a batch of your White Tiger Legion's baggage battalions past, it seems that this time your White Tiger Legion will also be included in the battle sequence!

"Brother Shao, where does this road lead? We've been walking for ten days, and we haven't reached the end yet, and this road is too long, and it's ......! If it's inconvenient to say, then I didn't ask!"

"Hehe, is it that the turtle sun over there in Longshou City said that he should keep it secret, and he is not allowed to ask casually, in fact, there is nothing to keep secret, the end of this road is Shunan, but it is not the eight provinces in Shuchuan, but in the eight provinces outside, according to your speed, it is estimated that it will take four or five days to reach the end!"

"Shuzhong?" Zhong Tai was surprised, his eyes almost widened, this is enough news, you must know that Da Chu wants to send troops to Shuzhong for three or four years, last year, he took Xiyan and Songling in one go, I thought that this was going to attack Shuzhong, but this is a small year, and there is no follow-up so far, I didn't expect it to be not that there is no follow-up, but that there is another way here.

"Hehe, what a fuss, but it's good to talk about this here, get out of here, don't talk nonsense, otherwise you're going to get into big trouble!"

Zhong Tai shook his head again and again, and said, "Don't you dare to go out and talk about this!" Zhong Tai said, and immediately changed the topic, saying: "Brother Shao, how is this bridge an iron cable, unlike the previous ones, which are all stone bridges, that one can walk much more steadily, this is really terrifying!"

"This distance is too far, the stone bridge can't be built at all, not to mention that this is not far from Shuchuan, you are traveling slowly, if you really want to be a beast rider who is good at speed, you can run from beginning to end in a day and night, here is a moat, if there is an enemy from that end to kill, as long as this side of the mechanism, this chain bridge will be disconnected, who can come when the time comes!"

Zhong Tai was speechless, but it was true, once this iron rope was broken, even the Heavenly Spirit Master was beyond his reach, unless he was a master of the Holy Spirit, who could walk in the air, or if he had a flying horse, but then again, what this Heavenly Trench prevented was only the passage of the army, and it had little effect on the former at all.

It's just that there is this must, you must know that there are just countless caves and tunnels, each of which is like a small pass fortress, all of which are the type of one man who can't open them, and not to mention anything else, even if he is really killed, a slightly stronger spiritual skill can collapse a section of the tunnel, and it is completely enough to block the enemy, obviously, this distance is the main thing.

While speaking, suddenly a gust of wind blew in the canyon, the canyon was already long and narrow, the wind was naturally not small, it was good on both sides of the bridge, but in the middle, it shook badly, and the frightened Zhong Tai hurriedly grabbed under him, but Shao Er laughed and said: "Don't be afraid, this mountain wind comes and goes quickly, besides, you are on the bridge, it's useless to be afraid!"

Sure enough, as Shao Er said, the mountain wind only blew for a moment and passed, and the shaking of the bridge deck was so violent, but this still made Zhong Tai and the others palpitate, thinking about walking this road many times in the future, and their hearts were a little hairy.

"When we get to the ground, we are walking forward, there is also a small rope bridge, and then it is almost a thoroughfare, let's say goodbye, next time we have a chance, drink together!" Shao Er came to the other end of the bridge, said goodbye to Zhong Tai and his party, and then gathered with the brothers in the camp and turned back.

But Zhong Tai's face was gray, and there was actually a rope bridge in front of him!
