When Ye Xun and Dr. Bai looked at me at the same time, I said solemnly: "Get ready, let's go down."
"No!" Dr. Bai stretched out his hand to stop me: "The situation below is unknown. It is too dangerous to rush into the cave based on Lu Yifei's guess. Even if it is out of trust for your comrades, you should think twice."
"I know exactly what I am doing!" I pushed Dr. Bai away and looked at the cave entrance from the side of the hillside. Suddenly I heard a rustling sound near me. When I turned around to look, countless poisonous snakes were already all over the mountain and heading toward me. swarming from the direction.
The snakes came silently, and by the time they made a sound, it was already too late for me to break out.
In desperation, I untied the ropes tied to my body and stood the coffin on the ground. I and Ye Xunyi jumped on the coffin from left to right, each putting one foot on both ends of the coffin to maintain balance, and then reached out to hold the coffin. Dr. Bai pulled her up and stood on our shoulders like a stack of Arhats: "Stand firm, don't fall down."
After I settled Dr. Bai, I looked down and saw a river of thousands of venomous snakes pouring down from the top of the mountain and rolling towards the coffin. Soon it was like running water, after bypassing the coffin. Flowed towards the cave entrance.
However, the continuous stream of snakes did not enter the cave entrance, but stopped close to the edge of the cave, split into two streams again and swam to both sides of the cave to make way.
The snakes were arranged in an orderly manner without anyone directing them. There was a row of venomous snakes closest to the entrance of the cave. The snakes' bodies were erected to a height of nearly one meter, and their heads were slightly downward, bowing like a salute.
Although I can't identify the species of venomous snakes, I can tell those who stand up based on the fact that these venomous snakes stand upright and can make the five-step viper (five-step snake) shrink back and dare not cross over. Upright venomous snakes are dominant in one area.
How come these guys who are capable of domination stand respectfully on both sides of the cave as if they are welcoming princes
etc.
Welcome the prince
not good!
When I suddenly turned my head to look at the top of the mountain, a dark purple smoke rose from the grass on the top of the mountain, accompanied by misty rain and mist, hesitantly moving over the mountain and slowly moving towards us.
Before I could understand what was going on, Dr. Bai squatted on my shoulder and said with trembling legs: "Snake King, no, it's the Dragon King here."
I asked anxiously: "What do you mean?"
"Cave burial has something to do with dragons?" Dr. Bai was so frightened that he couldn't speak, but it was like a thunder exploded in my head, making my face turn pale.
Among the two most famous cave burials that have been discovered, someone left a message in the "Jiading Cave Burial" "Rest in Dragon Palace"
The forehead of the monument of "Shanping Cave Burial" is engraved with "Longcun Key"
No one knows what those two sentences mean, but judging from the literal meaning, it should mean that the place where the ancestors of the Miao people rest is the place where the "dragon clan" lives.
Among the poisons abundant in Miao territory, snakes are accustomed to thrive in caves. Aren’t the coffins in cave burials accompanied by snakes
In Chinese mythology, dragons and snakes can transform into each other. In many places, snakes are called little dragons. Could it be that the cave buried behind us is the lair of a giant snake
It must be, otherwise, countless snakes would not gather at the foot of the mountain to welcome the king back to the palace.
When I turned my head to look down the mountain, the clouds and mist floating on the top of the mountain were approaching again. Although I had not yet clearly seen the true face of the Dragon King in the mist and rain, I could already feel the cold murderous intent coming towards my face along with the thick smell of snakes. The Dragon King was already angry. .
I quickly glanced in the direction of the cave: "Go down!"
As Ye Xun nodded, he quickly pushed a palm towards me. The two of us split into two sides and threw down the coffin, while Dr. Bai was thrown directly into the air by us.
"Ah -" Dr. Bai's scream died down. I had already picked him up in my arms, but at this moment, Ye Xun flew up and kicked the coffin down the hillside. The coffin containing the bean donkey seemed to be rushing down the mountain road. The iron pulley was pressed against the green grass on the ground and sprinted towards the entrance of the cave.
Ye Xun and I followed closely, jumped up, and landed on the coffin one after another. We each pulled out our weapons to guard the sides of the coffin, and rushed toward the entrance of the cave at lightning speed.
I originally thought that guarding both sides of the mountain road would surround us as we rushed down the hillside. Unexpectedly, the snakes were raising their heads and roaring, but no poisonous snake dared to cross the thunder pond even half a step, even if they had already He assumed an attack stance.
The two of us had just slid halfway down the hillside when a shout of death suddenly came from behind the snake group.
I deliberately shined my flashlight twice in the direction where the killing sounds came from. The detective who was being chased by the Miao people immediately discovered our whereabouts: "That bastard Wang Huan, over there!"
"Go up and kill him!"
The detective hand was roaring, but the Miao wizard was frantically stopping his companion from moving forward: "Go back quickly, go back, there are a group of snakes making pilgrimages over there, the Dragon King is going back to the palace, don't go there."
Someone shouted loudly: "Set arrows, shoot arrows, force those Han people into the snakes, and let the poisonous snakes bite them to death."
Although the range of the Miao people's weapons is not as good as that of crossbows, the power alone is more terrifying than crossbows. The poison on the arrows will kill them if they touch them. Even the top masters would not dare to easily fight against an arrow formation composed of more than a dozen people.
There was a sound of gunfire in the distance, and screams came from the direction of the detective hand. Li Binning roared from the air: "Wang Huan, I treat you with sincerity, why do you treat me?"
"You know whether you are sincere or not." I never believed that Li Binning would treat me sincerely, but I had to drag him in to verify some things.
I stood on the coffin and shouted: "Li Binning, the cave in front is the entrance to the ruins of the Five Poison Sect. If you dare to follow me, we will settle the score. If you don't have the ability, the Miao people behind will be left to you." Let’s deal with it, see you later!”
After I finished speaking, I squatted down and didn't even look at the other person.
After Li Binning was silent for a few seconds, she suddenly roared: "At any cost, follow Wang Huan and attack the cave burial, quickly!"
There are snakes in front and pursuers behind. With the two evils in play, it seems that the snakes are easier to deal with. Li Binning decisively ordered to attack the group of snakes. The detective who was walking in front did not know what he was using, and in the blink of an eye he set off a raging sea of fire on the ground.
The group of snakes that had already pounced on each other suddenly burst into flames, making squeaking noises. The poisonous snakes that were not affected by the flames also quickly retreated to both sides of the sea of fire. However, Li Binning led the detective hand across the flames on the ground and chased into the hillside.
The flames set off by the detective hand were easy to pass through, but the Miao people chasing behind them were difficult to deal with.
Li Binning rushed behind us with only half of the troops, and the remaining detective hand turned back and rushed into the enemy's entanglement with the Miao family warriors, desperately blocking the pursuers for Li Binning.
I just glanced sideways at the battlefield, and saw four or three detective hands covered in blood, falling under the swords of the Miao family warriors, while the remaining troops were still advancing wildly with blood, looking like crazy. Suppressing the opponent like a tiger and buying time for Li Binning.
I have to admire Li Binning's ability to control his subordinates. He is by far the commander among the Four Detectives that I have encountered who is most able to make his subordinates issue bans. Leng Yusuixin is more than a star and a half worse than him.
Li Binning knew that his subordinates were constantly dying, but he had no intention of stopping. He started chasing me as soon as he rushed into the chute.
Just in the blink of an eye, the scene on the mountain changed. I squatted on the coffin and slid quickly towards the cave, while Li Binning ran behind us with her magic hand. Miao troops rushed into the mountain road from different directions.
Three groups of men and horses, divided into three sections, were speeding along the mountain road for a moment. The coffin we were standing on hit the edge of the cave. I quickly jumped off the coffin, put the coffin on my back again, and rushed in with Ye Xun. cave.
It was only then that I could clearly see the entire cave through the beam of my hand.
It is enough for two trucks to drive into the cave side by side, and it leads straight to the middle of the mountain. But I can't see how far this cave goes into the mountain
The coffins in the cave are all fixed in the cave with tic-shaped wooden frames. They are arranged in rows of four starting from the entrance of the cave, with their heads facing into the cave and their feet extending out of the cave toward the ground. At first glance, it looks like someone deliberately used coffins. A passage was laid out to guide visitors deep into the ground.
I casually glanced at the coffin with a flashlight and immediately saw four pairs of shoe prints, three large and one small.
"Sapphire!" Apart from Sapphire, I didn't see any children along the way. The footprints of a seven or eight-year-old child must be from Sapphire.
"Chase!" As I jumped on the coffin and chased underground, the sound of human feet landing on the coffin kept coming from behind us, and the men and horses of the Detective Hand also chased into the cave.
Just now, we relied on the speed of the coffin to get one step ahead of the opponent. Now, not only did we lose all our advantages, we also had to add two more drags. In less than a moment, we were chased behind by Li Binning.
I knew the other party was approaching, but I didn't look back. Instead, I greeted him like an old friend: "Are you here?"
Li Binning said sharply: "Wang Huan, you..."
"You don't need me!" I said coldly: "I believe what you say, but I believe even more that you want me to die directly in Miao territory, so that you can achieve your goal without offending anyone."
Li Binning gritted her teeth and said: "This is the reason why you trapped the detective."
"I am not harming you, but saving you!" I said without looking back: "I ask you three questions, and if you can answer them for me, I will turn around and go back immediately without saying a word. No answer Come up here and think about what happens next."
I quickened my steps without waiting for Li Binning to speak, and asked quickly: "First, the Miaojiang Gu masters who cooperated with your Detective Hands are all planning to kill me. Is it your Detective Hands' intention, or is it the intention of your Detective Hands? What do they mean?"
"What did you say?" Li Binning's feet visibly paused.
I said again: "Second, is it your idea to attack military helicopters?"
Li Binning was stunned again: "The military helicopter was really attacked?"
I said solemnly: "Thirdly, why does the Detective Hand have to obtain the secret technique of the Five Poisons? Whose idea is it to go deep into the Miao territory and cooperate with others?"
At this time, Li Binning was completely stunned.
