Chapter 6: The Valley
When Ye Hao saw the situation in front of him, he was stunned.
On the side of this dense wood, a valley appeared. The four walls of this valley are as smooth as jade, as if glowing, and they seem to be so crystalline, not at all as if they are made of nature, as if they were artificially excavated. From below the valley, a cool breeze rises with a few mist. And the battlefield drums, like the golden iron horse, also transmitted bursts of roar, and it became louder and louder in the ears. The temperature around the valley also dropped a lot suddenly, and Ye Hao couldn't help but shiver.
Ye Hao didn't care about the stone monkey, his eyes looked down, and he carefully observed the situation in the valley. Although it was late at night, the cliff was surrounded by a crystal white light, and the scenery under the valley could be seen more clearly.
It turned out that on the opposite side of Ye Hao's position in this valley, there was a waterfall, such as a jade belt hanging high, like a rushing stream, although it was not as strong as the momentum of the flying stream down three thousand feet, but the turbulence of the water flow was also quite spectacular. The sound of the drums of war was the sound of the waterfall crashing into the deep pool in the valley.
The water of the waterfall was dense and evenly flowing, as if it was pouring directly into the valley, and the white expanse poured straight down, violently smashing into the pool of water below the valley, splashing thousands of waters. The moment the splash was splashed, it shattered into countless mist, gently supported by the wind blowing in the valley, and rose towards the mouth of the valley, imprinted on the smooth mountain wall, printed on the trunk of the tree sticking out of the valley, and printed on the faces of Ye Hao and the stone monkey who were carefully inspecting the deep valley.
Ye Hao looked at such a valley scenery and felt the water vapor rushing to his face, which made his heart feel extremely peaceful, and a trace of fascination couldn't help but rise in his eyes.
"I've lived at the foot of Jilei Mountain for so long, I didn't expect there to be such a good place nearby, I've been to this forest more than a hundred times, but I've never seen this valley. Grandma's, I'm glad I had a keen eye and a quick hand, otherwise I would have jumped straight down this valley. Not far away, the voice of a stone monkey was heard.
Ye Hao teased: "Don't you claim to be the best in the entire Shijia Village, you can't cross such a valley." ”
The stone monkey smiled and said, "Hmph, Ye Hao, don't be sarcastic, you have the ability to jump over." ”
Ye Hao was silent, looking at the valley under the moon, and an inexplicable sadness suddenly surged out of his heart.
"What's going on, at the beginning, my heart was very peaceful and peaceful, but now it has become so sad that people feel sad......"
"Oops...... My head hurts!" shouted the stone monkey not far away.
Ye Hao laughed when he heard this: "Hehe, let your kid be proud again, he must have just knocked on the tree, and now there will be retribution." As soon as the words fell, I heard a "plop" from the position of the stone monkey, and I felt that something had fallen to the ground.
"Ah~~~~~~!!!!h
Ye Hao's heart was shocked, and he realized that the sound came from the stone monkey, and the sound must have been made by the stone monkey falling from the tree to the ground. Ye Hao hurriedly ran towards the direction where the stone monkey was.
He saw the stone monkey in front of him curled up on the ground, rolling with his head in his hands, and his pain was overflowing.
Ye Hao looked at this scene and was taken aback, and he couldn't care about the grievances between the two at the moment, so he hurriedly asked, "Stone monkey, what's wrong with you?"
"I ...... I...... Head...... My head hurts...... The stone monkey was obviously in pain, and its body rolled back and forth, and it actually rolled in the direction of the cliff face of the valley.
Ye Hao was suddenly frightened, and hurriedly shouted: "Stone monkey, don't roll, there is a cliff over there." ”
The stone monkey didn't seem to hear his shout, and still rolled in the direction of the cliff.
Seeing that the stone monkey was about to roll down the cliff, Ye Hao was in a hurry, and he chased after him with an arrow, "Stone monkey, stop, you don't want to die!"
At the moment when the stone monkey was about to roll off the cliff, he seemed to hear Ye Hao's shout, his eyes opened violently, and he reached out to climb the cliff.
At this time, the stone monkey's entire body hung on the stone wall, and only the ten fingers of both hands grasped the cliff wall, and the situation was extremely dangerous. Moreover, the cliff wall was unusually smooth, and the stone monkey's hands were trembling, and it seemed that he could not grasp it.
Ye Hao ran to the edge of the cliff as fast as he could, and grabbed the stone monkey's arm.
"Stone monkey, you hold on, I'll pull you up. Ye Hao shouted as he pulled the stone monkey up the cliff with all his might. It's just that Ye Hao didn't get a drop of water in this day, and he used up most of his strength again and again, his arms were constantly trembling, extremely difficult, he could only barely hold on, but it was not so easy to pull people up, and at this time, the stone monkey had a splitting headache, was in pain, and he couldn't use all his strength, which made Ye Hao feel even more difficult.
The stone monkey looked at Ye Hao's struggling expression, and thought that Ye Hao came to save himself without a trace of hesitation, and a look of gratitude also appeared on his face. It's just that he has a terrible headache, not only can he not exert his strength, but even his consciousness gradually becomes blurred.
Ye Hao didn't give up, he grabbed the stone monkey's arm tightly and pulled it up. At this moment, there is no hatred, no resentment, and no anger, Ye Hao's heart is just thinking that he must not let this person be lost from his hands.
However, the water mist in the waterhole under the valley was flooded from time to time, and Ye Hao was sweating a lot because of all his strength, and the hand holding the stone monkey felt more and more slippery.
"Stone monkey, don't give up, I will definitely pull you up!" Ye Hao's perseverance appeared on his immature face again.
The stone monkey had a splitting headache and a misty look in his eyes, but he still barely squeezed out a smile at Ye Hao, and then nodded vigorously.
It's a trust, a silent trust. Even if they had fought and fought over something, everything was no longer important at this moment.
Ye Hao lay his whole body on the edge of the cliff, took a deep breath, exerted the strength of his whole body with both hands, and lifted it violently, the body of the stone monkey was raised by half a body, and he was about to be pulled up the cliff.
Ye Hao was very excited, he didn't dare to relax in the slightest, he held his breath, and continued to exert his whole body, his whole arm seemed to feel paralyzed, but he couldn't care about it so much.
But suddenly, Ye Hao felt a suffocation, and suddenly felt a pinprick-like pain in his mind.
In an instant, Ye Hao felt cold all over his body, and his body couldn't help but have some spasms. And the breath that he was holding just now also leaked violently, Ye Hao's hands couldn't help but loosen, and the stone monkey fell down violently.
At the last moment, Ye Hao subconsciously made a hard effort and grabbed the stone monkey's arm again.
As if wrestling with death, Ye Hao used his tenacity and tenacity to endure unbearable pain, but he had no intention of backing down. He wanted to pull the stone monkey up, but he couldn't accept a living person falling into the abyss in front of him, even if that person was not a friend.
Ye Hao finally understood at this time, why the stone monkey fell from the tree just now, he was probably suffering the same pain as he was now, no wonder he had no strength, the pain was unbearable, and his whole head seemed to be about to crack. Ye Hao felt that his strength and consciousness were also leaving his body little by little......
"No, no, it must not be!"
"Ah~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~h
Ye Hao suddenly screamed, he wanted to rely on yelling to offset part of the headache, and he also wanted to rely on yelling to arouse his consciousness.
With all his might, he pulled the stone monkey up the cliff again.
Ye Hao screamed wildly, using his tenacity and tenacity to fight against death. His eyes, nose, ears, and mouth began to spill blood...... It's just that this outbreak did not pull the stone monkey up the cliff, but it was also in danger of being dragged down at any time.
Ye Hao's seven orifices were bleeding, trembling all over, and his face was full of terror.
The stone monkey looked at Ye Hao weakly, and there was a trace of tears in the corner of his eyes. He knew that if this continued, the two of them would probably fall into the abyss and never recover. The stone monkey reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said to Ye Hao: "Ye ...... Ye Laoda...... This time it's my heart...... Call you Boss Ye...... Thank you ......."
After that, the stone monkey opened its mouth and bit Ye Hao's hand fiercely.
Ye Hao was exerting all his strength, his hand was in pain, and he unconsciously let go of one hand, and the strength of the other hand could not bear the weight of the stone monkey's entire body at all.
The body of the stone monkey fell towards the bottom of the valley like a kite with a broken string.
"No ......!"
Watching the stone monkey's body fall, Ye Hao's face twisted painfully, and he kept waving his hands back and forth, as if he wanted to catch the stone monkey, waving indiscriminately.
The stone monkey disappeared from Ye Hao's field of vision like this, and even the sound of falling down the cliff disappeared cleanly in the roar of the waterfall.
Ye Hao's whole body collapsed, he endured a severe headache and a huge loss in his heart, and passed out in a coma after exhausting all his strength.
The moon is different and the stars are oblique, the morning is shining, the sky has gone from night to early morning, although there is no sunshine, there are still a few oblique light and shadow swaying down, imprinted at the foot of Jilei Mountain. I can't see the layers of the forest, but the afterglow is shining, faintly against the stone side of the forest, there is a different scenery.
The morning in the valley was cold, and a ray of sunlight leaking through the cracks in the clouds was shining right on the waterfall, but the sunlight was also dim in the gray fog around it.
The torrent of the waterfall crashes into the waterhole, splashing thousands of water, and although the dense sound is still clear, it seems to sink into the noise of the revival of everything in the early morning, and gradually does not show the majesty of the night. The majestic Jinge war drums could not be heard, only a whispering sound. If you don't pay attention, you can't tell the difference.
Ye Hao gradually came to his senses at this time.
The moment he opened his eyes, he was moved by the scenery in front of him, deeply immersed in it, the scenery of day and night is completely different, the water flow becomes gentle, the sound becomes much softer, everything shows two completely different scenes, but these two scenes can be called the best scenery in the world, people can't help but sink into it.
Ye Hao looked at the beautiful scenery in front of him, but his brows were tightly pressed together, there was an extra knot in his heart, a knot that could not be untied in his life, and the life that disappeared from his hands could not come back...... Ye Hao's fists were clenched tightly, sweating, bleeding, and wanting to have a fresh life......
"Alas......" Ye Hao sighed and slowly got up from the ground. He reached out and patted his forehead to make sure there was no more pain.
Ye Hao looked down the valley, only to see a white expanse, as far as his eyes could see, he could only see the wide pool, and he couldn't find where the stone monkey fell. But just look at the depth of this valley and you can think that the stone monkey must be very lucky.
If you change to someone else, I'm afraid you have given up. But Ye Hao is different, his character is full of persistence, full of unyielding, without seeing the corpse of the stone monkey, Ye Hao will not stop there.
"You are a stone monkey, how can you be worthy of your name when you die like this......" Looking at everything under the valley, Ye Hao's hands were clenched into fists, but he was making a decision in his heart, no matter whether the stone monkey was dead or alive, he must find him.
Ye Hao turned to leave, but instead of fleeing, he went to find helpers, he knew that with his own strength, it would be extremely difficult to find the stone monkey, so more people must come to help him find it.
Ye Hao left the valley as fast as he could, walked through the dense jungle, and went straight to Linjia Village.
Although the sky has just dawned, many families in the village have already opened their doors. Obviously, the people in the village woke up relatively early, and an old woman in the village saw Ye Hao's hurried figure from a distance, and shouted at Ye Hao: "Xiao Haozi, where have you been all night? ”
Ye Hao didn't say anything, just nodded at the woman and said, "Second aunt, thank you, I'll go home now." ”
At this time, a small head poked out from a thatched hut at the intersection of the village, which was a little girl with a pair of big watery eyes. Ben was still a little sleepy-eyed, but when she saw that it was Ye Hao coming back, she immediately became overjoyed, and she shouted at Ye Hao: "Brother Hao, you are back." I waited for you for most of the night yesterday with my aunt. ”
Ye Hao followed the shout and looked at the little head that poked out, his tense mood suddenly relaxed a lot, and he immediately stopped: "It's you, Sister Wanqing, thank you for accompanying my mother yesterday and letting you worry about me." ”
The little girl's face flushed, and she blinked her big eyes and said, "Brother Hao, why are your clothes torn like this, I'll make it up for you." ”
When Ye Hao heard this, he realized that his clothes had already been torn out of shape that day and night, and said with embarrassment: "Thank you, Sister Wanqing, but now I have something urgent to do, let's talk about it later." ”
Ye Hao was just about to leave, but suddenly remembered something. He hurriedly turned to the little girl and said, "By the way, Sister Wanqing, if you're okay, do me a favor now!"
When the little girl heard this, she immediately jumped out of the door: "What's the hurry, as long as it's Brother Hao's business, I'll do my best." ”
"Sister Wanqing, I want you to go and find the toad, Xiaolong, and Xiaohu now, and gather at the entrance of the village in a while, I have something very important for everyone to help. ”
"Oh, okay, Brother Hao, don't worry, I'll find them right away. The little girl looked at Ye Hao's anxious appearance, and seemed to see that something big had happened, so she didn't continue to ask, and immediately jumped up.
When Ye Hao rushed back to his thatched hut, he immediately felt a sense of relief. When I saw what had happened in one day and one night, I couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. After taking a deep breath, he pushed the door open and walked into the cabin.
