Chapter 198: Found Someone
Jiang Wanning and Mo Yu struggled to move forward in the cave with the help of the light of the fire, obviously the sound was in front of them, but the hole was like a labyrinth, twisting and turning, sometimes spacious and sometimes narrow, going around and back to the same place.
Jiang Wanning secretly scolded Gu Zhou, in a cave with such a complicated terrain, he didn't know how to leave a mark, wasn't he afraid that he wouldn't be able to get out? Or did he leave a mark, they didn't find out.
"Mo Yu, stop for a moment."
Jiang Wanning closed her eyes, carefully recalled the road she had traveled before, and gradually sketched a map in her mind.
Open your eyes again and take a closer look at a few forks in the road.
"Mo Yu, how many fire folds did the adults have on you?"
"There's just one on you, and the rest is mine." Mo Yu said.
They had already wasted three fire folds just now, and now there were only two left.
Jiang Wanning pointed to the road she had walked on at the beginning: "Put out the fire, let's walk this road again." ”
Jiang Wanning speculated that Gu Zhouzhu could come here, and it was estimated that the fire fold had run out, so he was moving forward in the dark, and only the voice guided him.
And there are many traces of artificial excavation in the place where she walked just now, using the original terrain to form a maze and induce you to keep turning in circles.
Perhaps, this place can only be walked out by ear.
Mo Yu frowned: "We have already walked this path three times. ”
Why did she decide to choose this path over the other two?
Jiang Wanning said: "The direction of this road is the most correct, if the adults follow the sound, they will definitely choose this side." ”
So, Mo Yu extinguished the fire, and the two entered the crack again.
Jiang Wanning shielded the map in her mind and moved forward by touching the stone wall, and Mo Yu carved a mark with a dagger every other way behind.
After walking for about two quarters of an hour, my eyes suddenly opened up.
Sunlight was shining through the cracks in the rocks on the roof.
It was a bigger cave than the one before, and the tinkling sound was clearer.
Mo Yu rejoiced: "Jiang Niangzi, we have come out." ”
Jiang Wanning nodded and continued walking.
After walking for another half hour, the sound of striking iron became clearer and clearer, and a gap in front of him revealed a red light.
Jiang Wanning looked through the gap and saw that there was a huge cave inside, and many craftsmen were smelting.
Sure enough, there is a secret iron-smelting workshop here.
Gu Zhouzhu must have been here too.
"Mo Yu, we've found the right place, I'll wait here, you go ahead and see if you can find your adult."
She had to rest, she couldn't walk.
"Okay, I'll go back as soon as I go." Mo Yu continued to walk forward.
Jiang Wanning stayed where she was, observing the people and layout in the cave.
After a while, several people walked into the cave through the passage opposite, led by a man in his thirties, with a burly figure and a square face and big eyes.
They walked straight in the direction where Jiang Wanning was and stood still.
The terrain is high enough to have a panoramic view of the cave.
"Aliao, you ask people to prepare, transport the refined iron that has been smelted away as soon as possible, and these blacksmiths will also evacuate as soon as possible, and they will set off tonight."
"My lord, Xiao Chao and Lao He are still chasing, maybe they can catch up."
"Even if you catch up, you have to retreat, this place has been exposed, Lao He and they found traces of more than two people in the mountain."
"And those two people are strong in martial arts, so many of us can't take them, and let them run."
"My lord, who do you think they will be? The military department? Or ......"
"It can't be the Ministry of War, the Ministry of War has our people, if the Ministry of War has action, we would have received the news a long time ago. What I'm most worried about is the Dali Temple, there is a problem with the weapons supervisor, and the Dali Temple is investigating. ”
asked Aliao's subordinates to hesitate for a moment: "Yes, I'll do it immediately." ”
Bai Wu seemed to sense something, and turned his head to look at the stone wall behind him, where there was a gap two fingers wide.
He always felt a chill down his spine, as if he was being targeted by a poisonous snake.
At the moment when Bai Wu turned around, Jiang Wanning immediately looked away, clinging to the stone wall, holding her breath.
This Bai Wuding is a master, and only a master can have such vigilance.
Bai Wu looked through the gap, and it was pitch black inside.
I thought to myself, maybe it was because he was disturbed by those intruders, and he became suspicious.
He knew that there was a road behind the stone wall, but this road could not be walked out at all, and entering it was a circle, and he and his men could not get out after many attempts, so it was impossible for someone to come in from behind.
As soon as Bai Wu left, Mo Yu returned.
Just as he was about to speak, Jiang Wanning shook his head at him and made a boo gesture.
Mo Yu understood and pointed in the direction he came from.
The two of them left lightly.
After walking away, Mo Yu said: "I found the adult, the adult was unconscious, I called him but he didn't respond, and I didn't know where he was hurt, so I didn't dare to touch him." ”
Gu Zhou stopped lying in front of a closed stone door.
Jiang Wanning probed her nose first, but fortunately, her breath was even.
I took his pulse again, and the pulse was still stable.
But his hand ......
Jiang Wanning touched his wrist little by little, touching his shoulder.
"He's got a dislocated arm."
You can check the rest of the place for him.
Jiang Wanning was embarrassed to touch it, and instructed Mo Yu to stop Gu Zhou for an examination.
After some examination, Gu Zhou stopped dislocating his left shoulder, and only had a few abrasions.
Jiang Wanning looked at his pale face, and she was also convinced.
The dislocation hurt very much, and he actually endured the pain to find this.
"Mo Yu, you cover his mouth and don't let him make a sound."
Mo Yu did so.
Jiang Wanning raised his left hand, pulled and sent, only to hear a "click".
Gu Zhouzhu was awakened by the severe pain, and reflexively let out a miserable scream, but his mouth and nose were covered by someone, and he only let out a muffled snort.
"My lord, it's me, and Mrs. Jiang."
Mo Yu let go of his hand, Gu Zhou sat up and moved his shoulder, okay.
"How did you find me?" Gu Zhouzhu thought it was incredible.
Not to mention how secret the deep ditch he slipped down was, even the road he came in was also like a labyrinth, he thought about returning the same way, but when he thought of that deep ditch, he broke a hand, and he couldn't climb it if he wanted to, he felt that his life was likely to be explained here, maybe no one would ever know that Gu Zhou was buried here, but he didn't expect them to find him.
"My lord, this way is thanks to Mrs. Jiang, otherwise my subordinates would still be wandering around the mountain, it was Mrs. Jiang who found out that you fell into the deep ditch, and we found this along the gap."
Jiang Wanning said: "Let's get out of here first, and then let's go out." ”
Back in the second big cave, Jiang Wanning helped Gu Zhou to sit down and rest, and said to Mo Yu: "Mo Yu, you go out to find Xiao Pan first, Xiao Pan will take you to the place where we tie the horse, you go to Zheng Guan immediately, and tell Zheng Guan that the people in the cave are going to evacuate tonight, don't stop them, just keep an eye on them." ”
Mo Yu looked at the meaning of the adult.
Gu Zhou stopped and asked, "How do you know that they are going to withdraw?" ”
"I heard the leader order his subordinates, they found Xiaojun Wang and Jiuli, but they didn't catch anyone, they knew that this place was exposed, and they wanted to withdraw."
Gu Zhou stopped hearing what he said, and immediately said, "Without further ado, Mo Yu, you go immediately." ”
