Duan Ling took Helianbo and the guards into the dense forest, found the road he stepped on last time, and pushed aside the grass in front of the cave, which was a bottomless hole. The guards lowered their ropes one after another, and Duan Ling wanted them to follow him, but Helianbo grabbed Duan Ling and sent a guard down to explore the way.
After a while, there was a sound from below. There was no danger, and everyone hung down one after another. It took a lot of time to walk through the road when Duan Ling came. When he arrived at the treasure room, it was the first time Helianbo saw so much gold. , was dumbfounded.
"This, this..."
"Shh." Duan Ling said to Helianbo, "Do you want it? Take it yourself if you want it. I know you don't need it, so give them some points."
Duan Ling knew that Helianbo would never take things that didn't belong to him, but the guards were also very hardworking, so it was nothing to give them some gold bars, so he said to Helianbo's guards, "It's all mine, how much do you want? Take it yourself."
Originally it belonged to him, but he copied Zhao Kui's house, and he didn't put a penny in the bag. He had to rely on Helianbo to help. Duan Ling was so suffocated, he immediately took the gold bar, knocked it, and threw it to the guards. One person threw a few sticks, and he also carried two sticks to prepare for emergencies.
The last time I went out of the cave, I forgot to bring some, and I almost had no money to eat.
Helianbo signaled that there was still time, and asked Duan Ling to rest first. Duan Ling nodded. Everyone returned to the platform, and Helianbo arranged the arrangement, preparing to attack Bian Lingbai. With Bian Lingbai, everything is much safer - Duan Ling initially planned to hide behind the box containing the gold bars, and when Bian Lingbai opened the box, he released a centipede to bite him, and then pretended to take a poisoned "general" out of the hole to call for help .
As for how to explain that he didn't show up until this time, just tell everyone that General Bian actually sent him a secret mission - guarding the treasure, and Fei Hongde will cooperate at that time, and no one will doubt it.
But when Helianbo came, Duan Ling's odds of winning increased a lot, and he could let the guards cooperate with the attack on Bian Lingbai. Anyway, now that Helan Jie is not here, Bian Lingbai is insatiable, and he will never bring many people out to fight him. Yuren caught them all, and then forced Helan Jie's behind-the-scenes messenger, but the effect was even better.
Duan Ling waited nervously and excitedly for this moment. Everyone rested for a while, and Helianbo arranged for all the guards to disperse. The guards were agile and used hook ropes to nail the stalactites on the top of the cliff, floating lightly. Go to the opposite side, crawl under cover, bow and shoot arrows, and point to the platform.
When everything was ready, Helianbo climbed high, sat on a stone, hid in the shadows, and whistled at Duan Ling, indicating that he was ready.
The underground canyon is bottomless, only the sound of stalactites dripping. There is a deep gorge, with sharp cliffs on both sides, and the darkness is endless. On the cliff, there is only a wide platform for Duan Ling, and another tunnel leading to the treasure room.
Helianbo and his guards hid themselves on both sides of the cliff, covering the entire platform. As soon as Bian Lingbai came along the wooden wedge, he killed his followers with bows and arrows, and then abolished his. ability to act.
There was also a whistle reply from the depths of the cave, which was Duan Ling's usual greeting when he was a child when he cooperated with Helianbo. Duan Ling walked absentmindedly into the depths of the treasure room, looked around, and suddenly discovered a strange thing—
- As he saw earlier, in front of the place where the box was placed, there was a footprint, just where he stood.
Duan Ling suddenly got goosebumps, what's going on? ! When Helianbo and the others came in to check the gold bars just now, they didn't notice this footprint. Has anyone been here before? !
He checked around and there was no one there, and he was pretty sure that the first time he came in there wasn't that footprint. In other words, after he left, someone who came here must be someone who lived here before!
Duan Ling was extremely nervous, and walked forward slowly, bowing his head to compare the size of the footprints, which were a circle larger than his boots.
Duan Ling's breathing almost stopped, thinking that someone must have been here before, and stood in the same position to check the area.
At the same time, a gleaming iron hook slowly protruded from behind and stretched towards his neck.
At sunset, when Wu Du arrived at the wheat field where they had stopped briefly on the way, he was too sleepy. He tied Wanli Benxiao to a tree, and Benxiao knelt down on all fours, grazing beside Wu Du. Wu Du slept with his head tilted for a while. In just two quarters of an hour, he had a bunch of messy dreams. When he dreamed that he was in the Qunfang Pavilion, Duan Ling hugged his neck and whispered in his ear.
"What... what?" Wu Du was dazed, woke up, frizzy, went to the pond to wash his face, and continued on his way.
There is less than an hour to reach Tongguan, and this time I finally caught up.
Deep in the cave, when Duan Ling felt the iron hook, it was too late. He used all his strength to shout, but his throat tightened. The top quickly retreated.
Helianbo roared angrily, and the guards were all alert. This change happened too quickly. Helianbo hurriedly ordered the arrows to be fired, but Helan Jie raised Duan Ling and blocked in front of him. No one dared to shoot arrows.
Helan Jie hooked Duan Ling with his left hand, jumped vertically on the wooden wedge, and quickly fled along the road Duan Ling came in for the first time. Companions outside the mountain closely monitor the movement of the cave entrance under the mountain.
Duan Ling's first thought was—how could he be here!
The second thought was - oops, this time the plan has all been revealed!
However, just as Helan Jie swept out of the cave, the guard shouted: "Who is it!"
Helan Jie first punched Duan Ling's abdomen, and Duan Ling's eyes were black, unable to struggle, and then he was tapped at the acupoint. He Lan Jie turned around and bumped his shoulder. The guard was hit with a pestle on the cave, and his brain burst. . The arrows flew, and the soldiers guarding the cave outside didn't care whether Duan Ling lived or died. Fortunately, Helan Jie came out of the woods, jumped out of the stream, and dragged Duan Ling into the twilight.
Duan Ling's body was out of control, and he was dragged and bumped a few times on the mountain road. Then he flew higher and higher, and was taken to a dangerous peak at the end of the mountain road. There is a towering rock in front of the mountain, and a green pine grows on the rock. Helan Jie threw out the rope, tied Duan Ling's hands, and threw him out. Duan Ling's eyes were full of ten thousand feet in the sky, if Helan Jie let go, You will fall to pieces yourself.
But he didn't fall directly into the deep cliff. Helan Jie put the rope around the end of the pine tree that stretched out into the sky, and Duan Ling was tied with his hands and hung in the sky, unable to reach the sky or the ground.
Duan Ling gasped, and was hung like that, and the world became quiet.
The rope hanging from him spun slowly in the air, carrying him around.
"Accidental harvest." He Lanjie took off the mask and smiled strangely. His face was pitted and full of scars. He smiled at night, like a ghost.
Night Owl screamed.
"You... why are you there?" Duan Ling struggled and shouted, "Let go of me!"
Helan Jie stared at Duan Ling intently, and replied, "It's a coincidence that you caught one of my enemies, but you came to the door."
"How long did you wait in that cave?" Duan Ling asked breathlessly.
"Just went in." Helan Jie replied again.
Duan Ling said solemnly: "Who are you arresting?! What kind of hatred does Wu Du have with you?"
"Oh. Wu Du?" Helan Jie murmured, "I forgot about this, who are you?"
Duan Ling didn't dare to speak, and looked at Helan Jie. He Lan Jie jumped up the pine tree like a monkey, and the pine tree sank suddenly, Duan Ling held back and did not shout.
Helan Jie stood on the branch, showed his hand that had become a hook, and said, "Recognize the unknown guest? He will use his life to pay me back for this hand."
"Who is the unknown guest?" Duan Ling frowned.
Duan Ling really didn't know, and he couldn't figure out why Helan Jie appeared in the treasure cave.
Helan Jie snorted coldly, stopped talking, and sat cross-legged on the pine tree.
The pine tree was almost unable to bear the weight of the two, and it bent into an arc.
Duan Ling raised his eyes and looked at the bright stars above his head.
It was this person who killed his father at the beginning, and now he hangs himself here again. I wonder if under this star man, can he still say "God bless Da Chen"
Wu Du is still on the road, no matter whether Helan Jie's enemy appears or not, this lunatic will not spare his life.
"What's the use of you taking me as a hostage?" Duan Ling said, "I don't know that anonymous guest."
Helan Jie sneered and said, "Don't lie anymore, I see that you can see clearly, that day in the camp of the horse thieves sent by Helenda, it was the unknown guest who killed the post and saved your life. You and How could he have nothing to do with it?"
"What?" Duan Ling's brows furrowed.
"Stabbed in the dark night." Helan Jie said, "Sneaking into the General's Mansion must be because of you. It took me a lot of time to follow the clues and find his hiding place, which was actually in Bian Lingbai's hidden treasure. "
Duan Ling: "..."
"If you let Bian Lingbai come over." Helan Jie continued, "It will surely disturb him. With so much gold, it is impossible for this fellow to not come back... I didn't expect to wait for several days, but I have waited for you!"
"I guess he just wants the thing that was taken away." Duan Ling said, "You save yourself, maybe he's gone now and won't be waiting here anymore."
"Let's see." Helan Jie said, "If he doesn't show up, I'll kill you first."
"Anyway, you can send him a letter." Duan Ling replied, "I want someone to save me. After all, I have no grievances with you, and I don't want to be confused, so I just lost my life."
Helan Jie sneered and said: "There are many people who have no injustice or hatred against me. There are not ten thousand people who died under my hands, but eight thousand people. It's not worse than you. When you die at dawn, I will go after you. Kill him to the ends of the earth, that's all."
