Chapter 331: Windfall
Zhao Xianglin carefully put Xiao Tianhe on the ground, stood up on the ground, moved his numb legs and feet that had not moved for a long time, walked to the inner edge of the stone platform near the wall, and looked at a seemingly thin connecting section, and slashed again and again. The tremor of the stone platform became more and more violent, and it seemed that it was about to break away from the rock wall, but Zhao Xianglin suddenly let out a surprised "huh", and the movements of his hands also stopped.
Xiao Tianhe struggled to support his upper body and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Oh, I really didn't expect that there is really a money mine in this cave. Zhao Xianglin smiled faintly, "It's just that the scale is too small, and there are only a dozen embedded in the rock." ”
As soon as he heard that there was money in the rock, Xiao Tianhe immediately urged: "Help me over and see, I haven't seen what the money in the Yuyu realm looks like!"
"Don't move, I'll show you. Zhao Xianglin squatted down, reached into his hand from the crack that had been cracked, pulled off a few money beads with a little force, and held them in his palm and returned to Xiao Tianhe.
"This ...... That's what it is...... Money?" Xiao Tianhe was stunned, and he couldn't even speak.
"What's the matter? It's just a few beads, don't you need to be so surprised?" Zhao Xianglin wondered why Xiao Tianhe's reaction was so big.
Although Xiao Tianhe had tried his best to hold back the excitement in his heart, he still couldn't suppress his laughter, and he didn't stop until the pain of the wound made his smile gradually distort and turn into a grinning appearance.
"Hey, what are you laughing at, have you hurt yourself?" Zhao Xianglin hurriedly skimmed those beads, held Xiao Tianhe, and said angrily, "How can you be so stupid? These few beads are not even one percent of your monthly salary, why are you so excited?"
"No, I'm glad I found a money mine!" Xiao Tianhe frowned and grinned.
"Money mine?" Zhao Xianglin looked back at the rock crack that had been split just now, and couldn't help but shake his head and smile, "Yes, it's a money mine." But the scale, barely ......" She raised a little finger and shook it in front of Xiao Tianhe's eyes.
Xiao Tianhe didn't explain more: "Sister Zhao, go on, we have to get out of here before the next suction eruption." ”
"Hmm. Zhao Xianglin returned to the crack.
Xiao Tianhe immediately said to Shi Haoming in the Meng Zhang Realm: "What a shrewd guy! What did you say to me at the beginning, 'Since the two gems are not the things that the Great Red Realm should have, the people of the Great Red Realm cannot use them, so they simply take them all.' "It turns out that the red mengshi and the blue yuan stone are the 'money' of the Yu Yu realm!"
"Let's not talk about this yet, Tianhe, let me ask you, what do you mean?" Shi Haoming's echo carried an uncontrollable anger.
"You don't even think of us as brothers, it's too much!" Lei Xiaoyan echoed.
"Hey, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you've saved me outside the cave, but I've decided to venture into the cave to find someone, if you make a mistake because of this, how can I feel good about it?"
"! If you make a mistake, we can be happy in our hearts?" Shi Haoming, who has always been calm and unfazed, scolded and opened his dirty mouth, it seems that this time he is really angry.
It turned out that when he encountered a suction eruption for the first time after entering the cave, Xiao Tianhe forcibly collected Shi Haoming and Lei Xiaoyan from the accompanying Meng Zhangjie and cut off the connection with Meng Zhangjie.
Lei Xiaoyan said: "No wonder you said so definitely before: 'You will not die. 'Feelings, you have premeditated to do this 'treacherous' thing, huh?"
Xiao Tianhe smiled: "Look, you're messing with words again, aren't you?"
"Hmph, don't say it, Brother Lei's words are not wrong! If you die, Meng Zhangpei will fall into this cave of 'ghosts and sorrows', then won't we never have the day to come out?" Shi Hao said clearly, "Brother Lei, you have used that 'treachery' well! I'll give him another 'ungrateful'!"
Seeing that Shi Haoming was angry, Xiao Tianhe had no choice but to laugh: "Hey, don't give me a 'big hat' all the time! I just didn't want you to have anything to do at the time, how could I have time to think about it so much? Besides, I'm not dead, as the saying goes, 'If you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing in the future'! Haha!"
"Okay, okay, Tianhe, remember, only this once, not for example!" Ao Jianwei came out to play a round.
"If we really treat us as brothers, we will be happy. Tang Yuanxing also spoke up.
Xiao Tianhe's heart swelled with emotion, these demon friends can be said to be sincere to him, with this group of reliable companions who are willing to sacrifice their lives and forget their deaths, what more can a husband ask for?
"Hao Ming, you must have planned to make me a rich man in the Yu Yu world, so you deliberately made up a reason for me to collect red meng stone and blue yuan stone, right?
Shi Haoming's voice finally regained its calmness: "That can be regarded as a congratulatory gift from me for your successful escape." I thought it wouldn't take long for you to discover this secret after you ascended to the Yuyu realm, but who would have thought that it would be a mistake all the time, and it took so long for you to see the true face of the money in the Yuyu realm. Let's not talk about that, what's the situation out there?"
"It's okay, I suffered some non-fatal injuries, Miss Zhao is safe and sound. Xiao Tianhe replied lightly, "Now we plan to go down the river and explore the end of the dark river." Okay, I'll call you again if there's something to do. Because he saw that the stone platform was about to be cut off, Xiao Tianhe stopped communicating with Meng Zhangjie.
"Sit tight!" As Zhao Xianglin's last knife fell, the stone platform split from the cave wall, and immediately drifted deeper into the cave with the turbulent undercurrent. The glowing fluorite is not everywhere in the cave, and the stone platform drifts faster and faster, and the surrounding area becomes darker and darker, until you can't see your fingers. Zhao Xianglin sat cross-legged in front of Xiao Tianhe, and the two of them held each other's arms tightly so that they would not be thrown off by the rapidly rotating stone platform. The path of the dark river is meandering, and every collision between the stone platform and the river bank will make a decision
The two of them trembled, God knows if this stone platform will suddenly shatter.
Occasionally, fluorite flashes by, providing a paltry amount of light. In the dim light, which was barely visible, the abrupt convex stones on the roof and walls of the cave looked like monsters eager to fight. The sound of the water in the dark river and the wind in the cave mingled into a strange whistling that lingered in my ears for a long time. Xiao Tianhe suddenly thought of a word that was very suitable to describe the current scene - Ghost Gate.
Saying goes:
"Take a walk before the ghost gate closes,
It is inevitable that the soul will fly high.
The birthday is not full of luck,
Half of his life has passed away. ”
This is a few common sayings in the Great Red Realm to describe the difficulty of curing terminally ill people, but it is very appropriate to describe the situation of Xiao Tianhe and Zhao Xianglin at this time. Because the two found that the stone platform no longer collided with the cave wall, but had been hovering in a relatively wide space.
"Shentan!" Xiao Tianhe exclaimed.
Zhao Xianglin also shouted: "It's still a deep pool with a big whirlpool! I'm about to lose it!" Because the slate is turning more and more urgently, I believe that it won't be long before the two of them will be thrown off together. To make matters worse, the stone platform seemed to be "unable to hold on" one step earlier than the two of them, and the edges were constantly peeled away by the raging rapids, and the otherwise spacious surface was soon reduced to the size of only two people to sit on. You can't see how deep the pitch-black pool is, but judging from the size of the whirlpool, it is unlikely that it will be bad luck to fall into it. But right now, the two of them are struggling to even stabilize their bodies on the stone platform, let alone escape from the water. The stone platform gradually approached the center of the whirlpool, and the rotation became more and more violent, Xiao Tianhe felt that the world was spinning, and he had to close his eyes to relieve the dizziness a little. At this moment, I really can only resign myself to fate.
When he was about to be swept into the center of the whirlpool, the stone slab that had been "struggling" for so long was finally overwhelmed, and broke into two halves from it, and the two fell into the water, the pool water was cold and biting, and the wound was extremely painful, and Xiao Tianhe was so painful that he almost fainted. Without the support of a stone slab, seeing that Xiao Tianhe's hand was loose again, Zhao Xianglin simply took Xiao Tianhe into his arms and tried to swim to escape the attraction of the whirlpool. But it was all in vain, and from the depths of the center of the whirlpool, there was a strange and familiar "sizzle" again, like the summoning of the Nine Netherworlds, and it seemed that even the soul was about to be hooked. With the explosion of suction, the center of the whirlpool "collapsed", forming a huge deep hole, and the surrounding water was instantly emptied, and the two fell directly from mid-air.
"No-", Zhao Xianglin hugged the unconscious Xiao Tianhe tightly and fell into the darkness and disappeared, and the pool of water gushing from all directions filled the deep hole again, and after a few waves, the original whirlpool was formed again.
......
"Smack", someone slapped both cheeks hard. Xiao Tianhe woke up groggily, just opened his eyes dimly, but was stabbed by the dazzling light around him, and tears couldn't stop pouring out. The strangeness of his body admonished him: he was tied up.
"Oh, I thought I was dead. A shrill voice rang in his ears.
"What is this place?Who tied me up?Who was beating me?What did he want to do?" A series of questions filled Xiao Tianhe's heart. When the eyes gradually adjust to the light, they are greeted by a strange face.
On the disproportionately long cheeks, there are two eyes that are not much bigger than soybeans, and under the long hooked nose, there are two slender whiskers that hang down to the chest. There was only a handful of hair standing up in the Tianling cover on his head, tied into a small braid, Xiao Tianhe couldn't help laughing, this hairstyle is too similar to the "pigtail" of the big-headed doll pasted at home during the New Year.
"Laugh as hard as you can, and you won't be able to laugh after a while. The ugly man stood up. Good guy, he is really tall, Xiao Tianhe estimates that if he stands side by side, he can only reach his chest. The man bent down and grabbed the rope tied to Xiao Tianhe's waist, and easily lifted him up and walked forward.
Xiao Tianhe looked left and right, and couldn't help but admire in his heart, it turned out that this was a huge karst cave, and the scene in the cave was incredible: not far away there was a huge "palace" made of rocks, although it was not gorgeous but extremely majestic. The walls of the cave are polished and smooth, and at intervals there is a pit inlaid with a dazzling pearl of the night - which is the source of the light in the cave.
"I remember being swept into the maelstrom, how did I get here?Where is Sister Zhao?Who would build a magnificent stone hall in such a place?" Xiao Tianhe was both curious and worried.
When the thin and tall ugly man carried Xiao Tianhe to the front of the main hall, another person came out of the hall.
This man is as ugly as a tall and thin man: a large face as wide as a basin, but with a "small cherry mouth", two small eyes that are larger and limited than the pair of "mung bean" eyes of the tall and thin man, the bridge of the nose is collapsed, the cheekbones are prominent, and he is very short, only about half the height of the tall and thin man.
"This, this, still alive...... "The short man not only spoke in an angry voice, but also stammered.
"yes, it's still alive, I didn't expect it. The tall and thin man replied.
The short man walked up to Xiao Tianhe, raised his chin and looked at it: "This, this, kid, life, life is very hard!"
"If it weren't for the woman's desperate protection of him, he would have been torn into eight pieces. The tall and thin man smiled disdainfully, "How is he, old man?"
"You, you'd better, it's better not to go, disturb him, he just fell asleep, I, I just retreated from the temple, retreated!" the short man said these two slightly longer sentences, as if he was very tired, and gasped violently.
"Tsk, just a few words, I see that you're tired. Since the old man is resting, I'll wait a while before going in. After the tall and thin man finished speaking, he threw Xiao Tianhe to the ground and sat on his waist.
The short man shook his head and said, "
Grunt and walked away with his hands behind his back. Xiao Tianhe frowned and stared at the stone hall in front of him, thinking about their conversation just now: "This is still alive?" "If it weren't for that woman's life to protect him, he would have been torn into eight pieces." "Could it be that Sister Zhao has already encountered an accident in order to protect me?" Thinking of this, Xiao Tianhe couldn't hold his breath and asked: "This brother, I don't know what is the situation of the woman who was caught in the whirlpool with me?"
The tall and thin man squinted at him, and smiled as if with bad intentions: "Hey, do you have the leisure to care about others?" I tell you, the woman is dead, and she was torn to pieces by the torrent in the whirlpool to protect you. ”
Xiao Tianhe's gaze dimmed suddenly, and sure enough, everything was as he guessed.
"Don't be upset, you'll see her in a little while anyway. The tall, thin man laughed playfully.
Xiao Tianhe naturally understood what he meant, so he asked, "The 'old man' I talked about with you has no grievances, why did he kill me?"
The tall and thin man laughed: "Do you need any reason for this? The old man can kill whoever he wants." ”
"Heh, you want to kill me for no reason? That's not an easy task!" Xiao Tianhe was not afraid at all.
"Oh?" the tall and thin man removed his ass from Xiao Tianhe, squatted in front of him, and said sarcastically, "With your current appearance, I think you can still toss?"
As soon as the words fell, the tall and thin man only heard the wind in his ears, and hurriedly rolled back, and a golden spear and a green light long knife fell like two lightning bolts where he was squatting just now. The tall and thin man stood up and watched coldly as a long-haired man and a red-haired young man took a golden gun and a long knife and took a stance against him. In addition, a large man with a double hammer and a man with a double hook appeared behind him, and the four of them surrounded the tall and thin man.
The demon clan in the Meng Zhang realm went to war.
For the four people who appeared out of thin air, the thin and tall man did not show the surprise he should have, but gritted his teeth and said angrily: "Scales and beasts, hmph, you miscellaneous pieces are really here!" After speaking, he raised his arms, and the rope that bound Xiao Tianhe was automatically untied, and flew back to his hand in two sections. It turns out that he is also a demon clan, and the double whip is his natal weapon.
"The two wicked men are coming! Come out quickly to meet them!" The thin and tall man's chest bulged violently, and a loud roar echoed in the cave, shaking Xiao Tianhe's eardrums. Before the echo died, I saw a few more figures flying out from behind the stone hall, landing behind the tall and thin man, and even the short man who stammered rushed over from the opposite direction with two double forks.
There are a total of five people on the other side, and there are also five people on Xiao Tianhe's side, but he can't fight by himself, so it's actually four against five. The five men were tall and short, and apart from the tall and short men, the other three were a beautiful young woman with a fan in her hand, a hunched old man with a long stick, and a plump middle-aged woman with a round shield on each arm. These people are tall, short, fat and thin, men, women and children. For some reason, the eyes of several of them were filled with infinite killing intent, and their eyes seemed to be burning with raging anger, as if they were going to devour the life in front of them.
Ao Jianwei couldn't help but look at Shi Haoming, who had a murderous look on his face: "What, do you know them?" No wonder he was suspicious, the other party's eyes obviously revealed the taste of hatred.
"I don't know. But now they want our lives, so you must do your best. Shi Haoming crossed the starry spear, and the tip of the spear flashed with a cold light.
"The old man has been harmed like this by you, and you still want to kill them all! Hmph, are we really when we have no one? Let you taste it today!" The thin and tall man roared, and picked up his double whip and killed Shi Haoming.
Ao Jianwei turned around and used a long knife to hold the short man's fork, Lei Xiaoyan faced the middle-aged woman, and Tang Yuanxing flashed to the side to attack the young woman.
A fierce scuffle began. Xiao Tianhe "rolled on the spot" and avoided the battle circle, vigilantly staring at the hunchbacked old man on the other side who had not yet made a move. The old man was like a spectator, watching the eight men fight each other with expressionless eyes.
It was the first time Shi Haoming had encountered such a difficult opponent. The tall and thin whip is soft and tough, and extremely difficult to defend against. Shi Haoming danced the starlight spear like a dragon going out to sea, the tip of the spear swished with the wind, the barrel of the spear was full of shadows, and every part of the spear was an attack point, which was very different from his previous gun-out routine. Because Shi Haoming knows very well that the long whip is the nemesis of the spear, once it is entangled in the barrel of the spear, it will be difficult to tear it apart, and it will inevitably fall into passivity. Therefore, every inch of the star spear must be used, firstly, to make the opponent unguardable, and secondly, to avoid being caught by the long whip.
The tall and thin whip was equally fascinating, and he stretched his arms like flying, and he swirled and danced. Occasionally, if he shook his arm and shook the whip, the tip of the whip would hit Shi Haoming like a bolt of lightning, and his goal seemed to be not just as simple as hooking the spear, it had the meaning of entangling Shi Haoming together.
Shi Haoming has his own way of coping, the other party shakes the whip, he shakes the gun, the tip of the gun shakes the range becomes larger, often the whip tip bullet away, occasionally the whip tip is wrapped around the blade, and it will immediately release with the violent shaking.
The hunchbacked old man who didn't make a move exclaimed: "Good marksmanship!"
Seeing that the thin and tall man couldn't take Shi Haoming for a while, the old man cheered for the other party again, and suddenly became angry, and shook the long whip in his left hand, with a crisp sound of "da", he actually threw the long whip out and pumped it towards Shi Haoming's heavenly spirit cover. Shi Haoming erected the starlight spear, with the tip of the spire, wanting to pick the long whip far away, but his wrist was lucky but he didn't pick it open, and then looked closely, the other end of the long whip was actually connected with the long whip in the hand of the tall and thin man, forming an extra-long whip.
A single whip is already two zhang long, and two are up to four zhang when they are picked up, not to mention beating people with such a long whip, even if you want to wield it completely, I am afraid it will be difficult. What do you want to do with a tall and thin man?
