Chapter 10: The Cliff Changes
High on the cliff, a group of adventurers are making final preparations for the mission. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Two ropes were firmly tied to the big tree on the edge of the cliff, one hanging directly down the cliff, and the other was tied to the waist of a little boy.
A strong man with a scar said to the little boy with a serious face: "Wait for you, you must not miss, understand?"
The little boy pursed his lips and nodded vigorously.
"Then I'll repeat the mission one last time, everyone listens!" the strong man with Scar amplified his voice.
"I, and Linda and the others will go down, use the secret medicine to draw out all the snakes in the valley, I will wave this flag when the time comes, Tommy, when you see it, go down the rope, go straight into the valley along the mountain crevice, and pick the herbs back, understand?" The strong man with the scar said in detail: "Tommy, you repeat again, what does that herb look like." ”
"The white flowers, bearing red fruits, are long in clumps, and most of them grow on the mountain walls!" repeated the boy.
"How do I pick it?" asked the scarred man again.
"Cut off its rhizome with your fingernails and put the whole plant in a cloth bag. The little boy patted the bag around his waist.
"In short, the most critical thing in this mission is you, we won't be able to lead it for long, and there must be something missing, you must be quick with your eyes and hands, the more you pick, the better! Also, you must protect yourself, the snake valley is almost full of poisonous snakes, if you are bitten, you will definitely not survive, understand?" Scar confirmed again.
"I'll be careful. The little boy assured with a cold face.
"Once you've picked it, you pull the rope three times, and Nick will pull you up then, and of course, if you have the strength at the time, you can come up yourself. The strong man with the scar pointed to a tall, thin archer next to him.
"If you are unfortunate enough to be bitten, Nick will pull you up, but don't worry, I will definitely send your share of the money to your house. Scar reassured.
"I, I'm not afraid, I'll definitely get the medicine back!" the little boy nodded vigorously again.
The strong man with Scar nodded with satisfaction, thought about it, and said, "Let's try it first, let's see if Tommy can squeeze into that mountain crevice first, and then we will officially act!"
With the order of the strong man with the scar, everyone moved, and everyone reached the edge of the cliff, while the tall and thin archer firmly grasped the rope that was tied to the little boy.
Tommy grabbed another rope and slowly slid down the cliff along it, and the rope in the archer's hand tightened on Tommy as he slowly let go, giving him a little security.
Slowly, Tommy approached the crack and stood on the protruding rock.
After a little more comparison, Tommy felt that he should be able to get in, so he shouted, "Captain Hank, I tried, I can get in!"
However, there was no response from the cliff.
Tommy pulled the rope around him a few more times, and found that it was becoming loose, and when he pulled again, both ropes fell off the cliff.
"Captain Hank, Sister Linda, Brother Nick?" Tommy shouted, but there was no answer from the cliff.
What's going on? Didn't they say they were going to pick herbs? They've been lying to me, but what's the use of tricking me here? Tommy's mind was in a state of confusion.
Suddenly, something fell from the cliff, falling faster and faster, closer and closer, and then brushed the stone on which Tommy was standing, and fell straight into the valley, smashing into a pool of blood.
Tommy saw clearly, it was Scarface Hank, the captain of their adventurer squad, the rough-faced man with a cold heart.
What's going on, how did the captain fall, what's going on on the cliff?, Tommy was a little frightened and overwhelmed.
At this time, several figures faintly appeared on the cliff, looking at Tommy, who was standing on the lonely rock.
"There's a kid here!"
"Oh, I say, why did this archer throw the rope down so desperately, it turns out that there is a man down there. ”
"I'm afraid it's their son, my son is heartfelt, and it's understandable. ”
"Alas, this position is not very easy to do, how can this go down?"
"Are you stupid, although you haven't learned hidden weapons, but if you throw a stone, you can kill you, anyway, he has nowhere to hide. ”
"Isn't this a waste, this child's blood is different, but it is fresh and warm. ”
"Then you go down and grab it, drink it well, I promise not to rob you." ”
"If I can go down, I won't go down early, can I not stand there and talk coldly!"
"I said, it's better to throw stones to death, everyone is better than who loses it. ”
"No, no, no, no, I think it's better to let it be, you see that he has no way to go to the sky, no way to enter the ground, where can he go, and in the end he will either starve to death, or his heart will collapse, jump down and fall to his death, isn't it better than stoning to death?"
......
Hearing the jokes of those people above, Tommy's heart was full of despair, he was not stupid, Sister Linda and Brother Nick must have been poisoned!
Looking at the rope that was only half left around his waist, Tommy was full of hesitation, so short, he didn't know if he could support it to the bottom. But what if you can stick to the bottom? This valley is a snake valley, and there are all snakes below, and it will be a dead end if you go down.
The above people discussed for a while, but they didn't really hit people with stones, but left quietly.
After a while, I didn't see those black shadows, but looking at Captain Hank, who died tragically in the valley, and thinking of Sister Linda and Brother Nick, who didn't know whether they were alive or dead on the cliff, Tommy hesitated for a while, but still shouted: "Help, who will save me......"
"There's no sound there? There's not even a ghost in this wood. After running for a while, Zhang Ang couldn't help but complain.
"Yes, if I'm not mistaken, it's over there!" Albert insisted.
"Does this martial art still have the function of enhancing the five senses? Why don't I know? Zhang Ang felt a little strange.
"Don't talk nonsense, just follow me. Albert glared back at Zhang Ang.
I finally climbed the mountain, but the scene in front of me was a little unexpected.
The cliff was bare, there was only a big tree, and not far from the uncle lay a woman in tattered clothes, and under the big tree leaned on a tall thin man with twisted movements.
In the same way, the skin of the two is pale, without a trace of blood, and they look very weird.
Albert went up to check it out, and his brows immediately furrowed: "They are all dead, and the blood of their bodies has been sucked dry! Women have been abused in their lifetimes, and men have been abused! This is the handiwork of vampires! They have not been dead for long! In addition to werewolves, there are also vampires in this forest!"
"Vampire, what's that?" Zhang Ang couldn't help but ask.
"Wait, there's a voice!" Albert interrupted Zhang Ang, looking around.
He walked slowly to the edge of the cliff and looked down: "There's a survivor here!
