Shen Xu didn't hear clearly and turned around: What?
No, Rougu said, it’s nothing
The word home has always been a great irony for Shen Shu.
But he hopes that Shen Lie will get married, and that Shen Lie can have a safe place to live his life. Does this mean that Shen Shu still has some warm hopes for his family in his heart?
But Rou Gu did not dare to continue this topic. Shen Shu had a good temper to the outside world, but he would not hide it in front of her.
He was bored to death and disgusted to death. During the Chinese New Year a few years ago, Mr. Shen didn't know what was wrong. For the first time, he sent someone to give Shen Shu a bunch of delicious cakes and fruits. He tried it at that time and it was not poisonous, but Shen Shu I threw up after taking the first bite.
Mr. Shen still looked noble like I finally value you, with his alms from above, but they were worthless to Shen Xu. That kind of nausea, from psychological to physical.
Shen Xu turned around and walked towards the north rope bridge. One of his men had already passed by first.
A sense of security was gradually established. Rougu's first step and the lighting of the first lamp holder on the stone wall dispelled a lot of fear. The subordinates were able to act with ease and were no longer as fearful as before.
They walked across many rope bridges and found several similar cliff clearings, which were carved out very smoothly. Each place had patterns and slightly different shapes.
In addition to the rope bridge at this height, people also went down to the rope bridge below. The men searched very slowly along the cliff and found a new rope bridge further down.
Unconsciously, in the past nearly three hours, a total of eight such cliff clearings have been discovered, but the dark palace has not yet been found.
Shen Xu had no intention of stopping, so Rou Gu followed him and continued searching.
The sky on the top of the abyss gradually turned white, and the thin light was very shallow. Stepping onto a clearing on the cliff, Rougu stood on tiptoes to light the lamp holder, and a scream suddenly sounded at this time.
Everyone hurriedly looked toward the source of the sound, only to see a figure falling straight into the abyss. The figure still held a torch in its hand, and brought out a fire dragon in the air, which disappeared in an instant.
Rougu was so frightened that her heart beat wildly, and she lowered her head and looked down the cliff.
There, Shen Shu spoke out.
Rougu raised her head and saw Shen Xu's eyes falling on the lower right side. She looked around and saw nothing in the darkness.
Shen Xu walked over, raised his hand, and threw the torch in his hand vigorously.
The firelight passed by in an instant, and Rougu saw the light as it passed the steep cliff, but it didn't look like a door, more like, more like Rougu was at a loss for words and didn't know how to describe it.
For drainage, Shen Xu said.
drain?
You should be able to go in. Shen Xu looked at the door in the darkness, paused, and turned to look at Rou Gu, would you like to try?
Rougu was stunned and nodded: OK
The door is on the lower right, and you have to tie the rope again to get through. Rougu called some people to help.
The rope was fixed on several iron rings on the cliff to confirm the firmness. Rougu also tied it around her waist and went down from the inside of the rope bridge.
The door was about two feet below, and the light from the torch was really weak, so Rougu had to carry the torch herself, which made her movement extremely inconvenient.
When she fumbled to find the door, it was indeed as Shen Xu said. It seemed to be a drainage system. It was very large, and it was more than enough for her to get in.
Using the hand and legs holding the torch, she found a support point on the cliff. The dagger in Rougu's other hand was digging along the traces of the door.
The people above looked at her closely, and when they saw she finally entered, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
A rotten, dry musty smell hit her face. Rougu squatted in the corridor, covering her mouth and nose with the sleeves on her wrists. She raised the torch and looked at the brick walls around her.
The deep corridor entrance ahead was pitch black, and the feeling of being stared at was even stronger than the abyss behind me.
She hunched over and walked forward. There were more and more roads. Rougu didn't dare to wander around. She went back to the entrance of the corridor first and raised her head to report to Shen Shu.
Shen Xu immediately dispatched his men and left three people here. The rest followed him down, and Rou Gu met them at the entrance of the corridor.
The sky above the mountains above is getting brighter and brighter, and gradually there is morning light. It seems to be another sunny day.
One by one, people came down and walked towards the corridor. Rougu followed at the end. Looking at the figures in front of them, she didn't know why, but there was always an unspeakable uneasiness in her mind, which was very strong.
She has been following Shen Xu for many years, and it's not that she has never been to places like this, and even weirder ones. Maybe it was because of the subordinate who accidentally fell off the cliff first?
That's all, Rougu narrowed her eyes, not letting herself think too much, and followed them.
Its daybreak.
Du Xuan looked up at the sky, feeling panicked and running faster.
After running a few steps, he couldn't control himself anymore and looked back anxiously towards the cliff on the other side.
Shen Lie saw the wooden house here on the mountain and asked him to come over first, while Shen Lie went to the firelight on the cliff.
It's dawn too soon
Du Xuan muttered and continued running towards the wooden house.
Shen Xu left one of his men here, and when he recognized it was Du Xuan, his men stepped forward.
Seeing this subordinate from a distance, Du Xuan shouted loudly: Where are Lao Tong and Zhi Changle!
The men pointed towards the wooden house.
Although Shen Xu asked Rougu to let them go, and Rougu also pointed out the way back, Lao Tong and Zhi Changle walked back and forth several times for fear of being deceived, and now they are fast asleep inside.
Du Xuan pushed open the wooden door. Lao Tong and Zhi Changle were sleeping strangely, their snores were deafening, and they were not awakened by the sound of him pushing the door hard.
Old Tong! Du Xuan stepped forward and cheered!
Let them sleep, the subordinate said. The master has already said that he will let them go.
Du Xuanru didn't hear anything, grabbed Lao Tong's shoulders and shook him violently.
Lao Tong!!
Zhi Changle! Du Xuan went to pull Zhi Changle again.
After pushing and shoving for a long time, the two of them slowly woke up.
Du Xuan looked at their sleeping faces, which had grown half fat. In the past half month, the food they had eaten seemed to be pretty good.
Go back, Du Xuan gasped, holding the two of them up on their backs, go back quickly, my young master is about to break his trust!
Du Xuan? Lao Tong reacted first and said, why are you here?
Don't ask too many questions. There is no time. You listen to me. Go to the sect on the mountain now, otherwise Ah Li will come to you. After a pause, Du Xuan added, Ah Li was seriously injured and still very ill. Do you have the heart to let her come down?
Ah Li? Zhi Changle hurriedly opened his eyes and shouted, where is Ah Li?
Go back to the mountain quickly! Du Xuan is about to roar, I beg you to hurry up!
The subordinate stood at the door, watching the fun, watching Du Xuan struggling for a long time, and finally woke up the person. Now hearing that Ah Li was mentioned repeatedly, the subordinate said: Ah Li? That little evil boy? Is she here too? ?
As soon as he finished speaking, the three big men in the room all looked at him, their eyes like daggers.
