Chapter 236: Descending the Cliff to Save People

It was just afternoon, and the winter sun shone on people, which made it look extraordinarily warm. Although Guo Rong was wounded by an arrow, he had already pulled out the arrow at this time, and the acupoints around his heart had also been sealed with internal force, and Guo Rong's body was fine for a few days. He quickly whipped his horse and walked more than ten miles until he came to a fork in the road. Guo Rong looked up at the bright sun in the sky, estimated the direction of Taiyuan Mansion, and accelerated his horsewhip to the northwest.

After Guo Rong left in a hurry, Le Yiyang sighed in his heart. Xiao Cuixin walked over, gently hugged him from behind, and asked softly, "Brother Yang, Xin'er has never heard you talk about your young friend." Who is he who makes you so concerned? ”

Le Yiyang stroked her hands and said calmly: "Sister Xiao, my friend's name is Linghu Cheng, a descendant of the Xianbei clan, and he grew up with me on the border of Daizhou since he was a child. On that day, the Khitan cavalry invaded, and Brother Linghu and I lost our families. We left our hometown together, and as soon as we arrived in Taiyuan Mansion, it coincided with the recruitment of new recruits from the army of Liu Zhiyuan, the king of Beiping. Brother Linghu immediately enlisted in the army. Since I was going to Kaifeng to find my father's deceased, I was separated from him. Since then, we have exchanged letters. A month ago, I learned from a letter that Brother Linghu had distinguished himself in the army, had been commended by the King of Beiping many times, and had now been promoted to a lieutenant in the army. Brother Linghu is only a few years older than me, and he has already achieved so much feats. And I have been reading the books of the sages for more than ten years, but now I have achieved nothing. It seems to be a trick of fate. After saying that, he sighed deeply.

After hearing this, Xiao Cui encouraged him: "Now that the way of the world is no longer ancient, I am afraid that those principles of Confucianism will not be useful, but those heroes and chivalrous warriors can show their might." Brother Yang, you are extremely talented, and you can comprehend the Void Sword Technique in just a few months. Now, although the martial arts are temporarily lost, you can still start from scratch. The green mountains do not change, and the green water flows forever. Senior Ge sent you "Weiyang True Technique", which is to let you concentrate on practicing martial arts. I think in time, your martial arts will eventually reach the pinnacle. ”

After hearing this, Le Yiyang nodded again and again, and said, "Sister Xiao, thank you for waking me up." In fact, it doesn't matter whether the martial arts are high or not, the most important thing is to be able to protect the beloved. Please rest assured, I will definitely understand the gist of "Weiyang True Formula" and live up to your expectations of me. ”

The two rested on the mountain road for a while, and remembered that they had to go to the bottom of the cliff to find Mei Jiutong and the others, so they didn't delay any longer and immediately set off to the bottom of the cliff. The road here twists and turns, and from a distance it looks like a giant snake hovering through the mountains and forests, but there is no road to the bottom of the cliff.

The two walked half a mile, but did not find a shortcut down the cliff. Le Yiyang cautiously approached the edge of the cliff, stared for a moment, and suddenly shouted loudly "Ah", and it took a long time before an echo came up. Xiao Cui asked curiously, "Brother Yang, what are you doing?" Le Yiyang turned his head and said, "I probed the depth of the cliff, and according to the echo, this cliff is at least more than 100 zhang. If an ordinary person falls, where will there be life. He was telling the truth, but he didn't notice the panicked look on his fiancΓ©e's face. By the time he found out, it was already too late, Xiao Cuixin's face was pale, and tears kept flowing out. Le Yiyang turned around and hugged her, not knowing what words to use to comfort her.

After a while, I suddenly heard the sound of an eagle chirping from under the cliff. Le Yiyang and Xiao Cuixin both looked at the cliff intently. The two still remembered how they went to the Lonely Valley in the first place, and at this time they also wanted to draw a scoop with a gourd and let the eagle fly down the cliff. When they saw the eagle fly out, the two couldn't help but be disappointed. The eagle was too small to even weigh a man.

Just as the two of them were frustrated, another eagle flew up. The eagle was also small, but it had a white cloth tied to its talons. Le Yiyang didn't have time to think about it, he pulled out the Qingyun Sword and swung it at the eagle, and after the sword flashed, the white cloth fell slowly from the air.

The eagle was frightened, chirped viciously at the people on the mountain path, and then flapped its wings and flew away. In the silence of the afternoon, in the deserted mountains and forests, the sound was enough to lift any brave heart, and enough to make any cowardly creature flinch. The eagle flew higher and higher, farther and farther, and finally became one with the sky.

Le Yiyang smiled at the sky, stretched out his hand to take the fallen white cloth, and found that there were eight words written on it in blood: Du Chi was trapped in the cliff and half of the tree. He gave the white cloth to Xiao Cuixin and said, "Sister Xiao, Du Gongzi is still alive." Xiao Cui glanced at it and said in surprise: "This is indeed Du Chi's word." Le Yiyang realized and said, "I have thought of a way to go down." There are trees on the cliffs, and there is a place to stay. We can weave the branches into ropes first, and then go to rescue Du Chi, maybe Brother Mei and his wife are also there. ”

Xiao Cui suddenly cheered up after hearing this. The two hurriedly looked for the branches, connected them one by one, and then pulled them tightly, and after about two hours, they finally braided a rope dozens of zhang long around the time of Shen. Xiao Cui was worried that the length of the rope was not enough, so she looked for more than ten branches and grew the rope by three or four feet. The two tied the end of the rope firmly to the big tree on the side of the mountain road, and carried the rest of the rope to the edge of the cliff.

Le Yiyang stood on the edge of the cliff, handed the Qingyun Sword to Xiao Cuixin, and said reluctantly: "Sister Xiao, please help me keep the Qingyun Sword." I'm going down the cliff now, and the less stuff I have, the better. In case the rope breaks on the way, you still have this Qingyun Sword to keep......" When Xiao Cuixin heard this, she hurriedly covered his mouth with her hand and said in a coquettish voice: "Brother Yang, I don't allow you to say that." You must come back safe and sound. After Le Yiyang handed out the sword, he said with a smile: "I mean just in case." Look at how nervous you look. Xiao Mei rest assured, I haven't treated you well in my life, and God won't be so unkind. ”

Xiao Cuixin was originally worried, but when she heard this, she laughed out loud and said, "Okay, you go down quickly." If you see Du Chi, pull the rope. If you see Brother Mei and his wife, whether they are alive or dead, they must first pull the rope and tell me. ”

After Le Yiyang agreed, he held on to the rope and went down. While stepping on the stone, he looked down and saw that there was indeed a big tree more than ten feet away. Le Yiyang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although he has lost his internal strength, he can still use his light skills freely. Le Yiyang flew down quickly, and when he reached the top of the big tree, the rope was still more than ten zhang long.
