Chapter 11: The Game Begins
As he went deeper and deeper, Zhao Xing's heart muttered. Is this the place or not?
On the other side, Cheng Fuji looked at Zhao Xing vigilantly, and his head began to spin rapidly, he could already be sure that Zhao Xing did not come for the sword shrine this time. So what is he for, and then it is related to the rumors on the rivers and lakes in recent days, those rumors about the treasure map.
Cheng Fuji felt that it must have something to do with these, but he didn't dare to really be sure.
After walking a few more steps, Zhao Xing suddenly stopped. Cheng Fuji, who was walking behind, didn't watch out and almost hit him. Looking at Zhao Xing frowning, "What's wrong?"
Zhao Xing said with a solemn face: "You listen carefully." ”
The people around him were all holding their breath, and in the quiet world, they could almost hear the sound of the air moving, but there was nothing else to do it. "It's quiet! It's just a little windy!"
"This is a cave, where does the wind come from?" Zhao Xing said.
Cheng Fuji also came to his senses, yes. They were already very far from the entrance of the cave, and what kind of wind was coming from in such an enclosed space at this time, unless it was?
"Get down!"
Zhao Xing roared, and immediately knocked Cheng Fuji to the ground. At the same time, there was a sharp chirp in the narrow passage, and it seemed that thousands of bats had flown out of the hole, and these elder, fanged vampires grazed their ears. They seemed to be frightened by something, and they were running away in a frenzy.
"Why are there so many bats?" Cheng Buji said covetously, if he had reacted slowly just now, his surname would have been buried here. looked behind him, fortunately, the three people under him also lay on the ground at the first time.
"They're running away!" replied Zhao Xing, looking at the shadow of the last bat leaving. "Something seems to be going on inside the cave. ”
Chen Buer licked his lips that were a little dry, "Could it be that someone walked in before us?"
Zhao Xing shook his head, "Probably not, the vines at the entrance of the cave look like they have grown naturally for many years, and if someone goes in, they will definitely cut off the vines." ”
"Brother Zhao, are we really here to find the Sword Shrine?" asked Cheng Fuji with finally made up his mind.
Zhao Xing and Cheng Buji stood opposite each other in the corridor, Zhao Xing looked at the latter and said with a smile: "The master of Cheng Zhai is really as wise as a torch, yes, my purpose this time is not a sword mound, as for what it is, I think you have already guessed it." ”
Cheng Fuji couldn't hide the fanaticism in his heart, and said excitedly: "Really, it's a treasure?"
Zhao Xing nodded, "Yes, if it weren't for the treasure map in my hand this time, who would have known that such a cave would be hidden in such a big mountain, Cheng Zhai Master, you and I will fellowship as brothers, of course this treasure will share with you." ”
"So, thank you Pavilion Master Zhao!" Cheng Fuji was overjoyed in his heart, and received an affirmative reply from Zhao Xing, and the little abacus in his heart began to start.
Zhao Xing looked at the happy Cheng Fuji but didn't know what he was thinking, and the five of them continued to walk forward, and there didn't seem to be any particularly weird traps along the way. As for the cold moon on the other side, Chu Ziyan and the others didn't have such good luck. A few people didn't take a few steps before they encountered a trap. Fortunately, with the help of the cold moon, several people can be regarded as in danger.
But it was much more difficult to get here, and there was a river in front of them.
According to Hanyue's analysis, they have been walking down since the fork in the road, and they should have come to a flat land now, and according to the direction outside, they have reached the bottom of the mountain. The road in front of us is getting wider and wider, and then think about the other two roads.
Hanyue speculated that the one in the middle should be the one that goes straight, the one on the right should go up, and Gongzixin should encounter a cliff, and the direction where it is located is the position above him to the right. And Zhao Xing's words should be a special channel to bypass these problems, looking at the river in front of him, Han Yue had a headache.
The river is not wide, but it is not something that can be jumped over by one person, and the river is not deep, but it flows very fast.
In front of such a river, even if Han Yue is a first-class person in the rivers and lakes, he only dares to make a try when the wind and waves are calm, and in a situation like this, he is really a little scared.
After all, water is different from land, and if you fall on the ground, you will be fine if you stand up. If you fall into the water, you can't get out, and Hanyue has always lived in the north, and the surname Shui is not very good.
"Three friends, I don't know what the surname Shui is?" said Hanyue as she turned to the two swordsmen and a cottage minion who had followed her.
"Please also ask Young Master Yue to give orders!" one of the swordsmen stepped forward directly, they had been told at the beginning of Zhao Xing's allocation of personnel that they must follow Han Yue's arrangements along the way.
I didn't expect someone to be so knowledgeable, and Hanyue didn't have to bother to speak. However, the minion of the cottage was reluctant, and as a result, Hanyue inadvertently revealed the secret of the treasure, and that person immediately obeyed Hanyue.
"The three of them have been in Jiangnan for a long time, and the surname Shui must be excellent. I have a rope here, and we will tie one end to this side of the river, and the three of us will take the rope to the other side of the river, and then tie the rope again. Brother Chu and I can climb the rope to cross the river at that time. Hanyue explained his plan and took out the rope he had prepared before leaving. This was originally the rope that Chu Ziyan used to prepare to tie up the treasure.
"Good!"
All three of them said yes and all went into the water.
Fortunately, there is no danger underwater, and it seems that the river is not particularly sad except for the fact that the current is a little faster. Han Yue looked overhead, and according to his guess, Gongzi Xin's cliff didn't know how they were going to cross it.
I watched the three people in the distance get into the water, leaning on each other and walking steadily in the water. Han Yue and Chu Ziyan were also preparing, and although the three people in front of them walked slowly, they were fortunately safe. It took about half an hour for the three of them to fix the rope at that end.
Hanyue dragged Chu Ziyan into the water, but unfortunately Chu Ziyan was a landlubber, so he didn't want to go into the water. Finally, under the compulsion of the cold moon, he walked behind resignedly. Han Yue looked very nervous and teased on the side.
"Ziyan, if you don't go faster, we won't wait for you. If the rope breaks and you're swept away by the current, we'll leave you alone. ”
Chu Ziyan blushed, but he didn't dare to be distracted when he walked in the water, so he had to shout into the air, "Shut your crow's mouth, if it weren't for you, I would have come here." If I knew it was so hard, I wouldn't have wanted any treasures. ”
"Then why don't you hurry up, I heard that this treasure is on a first-come, first-served basis, if you are late, there will not be a word by then, it will be really in vain. ”
"Then pull me up!"
Chu Ziyan knew that Han Yue was laughing at him, but he was still a little anxious in his heart. Seeing that the cold moon was about to reach the shore, he was still rubbing in the middle of the river, and couldn't help but sigh that he would never cross the river again in his life.
The cold moon dotted the water with a beautiful dragonfly on the water and fell to the shore in style. When he turned around to look at Chu Ziyan again, he was still slowly swallowing, and when he wanted to laugh again, his face changed.
"Son, come here!" "Hurry up!" Han Yue shouted on the shore, and the three people who had come over in advance also noticed the anomaly on the other side of the river.
"What's wrong?" Chu Ziyan didn't know why, and asked with his head up. It's just that he didn't have time to get Han Yue's answer, and suddenly felt that the rope in his hand was loose, but he obviously held the rope in his hand tightly.
"Son!" said Hanyue anxiously from the shore.
"Hold on to the rope!
But the turbulent river rushed into Chu Ziyan's mouth, and he didn't even have time to shout for help. He struggled in the water, his brain was in disarray, and vaguely he only heard the cold moon calling him and talking about rope. Another wave of water hit, and Chu Ziyan only felt his brain buzz and fainted.
Han Yue could only watch on the other side of the river as Chu Ziyan was swallowed by the waves, and then rushed down with the current.
And the initiator of this incident, Han Yue looked coldly at the person standing opposite, and let out a beastly roar from his mouth.
"Lin Yulong, I want your life!"
