Ling Ying spread his snow-white wings and shook them vigorously: "Hold my neck, we have to fly a long distance before we can reach the river beach."
Tang Lie said with a smile: "I'm not used to hugging men yet!" Even so, his arms were already hugging him. Ling Ying said coldly: "Hold on to me, don't fall!" His body suddenly flew into the air.
From the ground up, the underground river winds and twists, the roar of the waves hitting the stone wall resounds in the ears, and the water vapor disperses throughout the space, making it more and more thrilling.
Ling Ying sometimes flew low above the water, and sometimes turned sharply around the huge rocks in front of him. Tang Lie lay on his shoulders, as if he were flying. He always liked to pursue the pleasure of high-speed driving, and he didn't feel anything about what was happening now.
Instead of fear, I felt a sense of novelty and excitement.
The luminous pearl cannot provide much illumination during high-speed flight. Tang Lie intuitively guessed that Ling Ying flew in such a narrow space not only by relying on his extraordinary vision and judgment, but also that he should have a good understanding of the environment here.
familiar.
Ling Ying made a rapid spin in the air, tilted to the right and glided, rushing through the narrow gap in front of her at high speed.
The sound of the tide became much quieter in an instant, and Ling Ying's flying speed began to slow down at the same time. His white wings spread out horizontally, using the inertia of the high-speed flight to glide freely on the water surface.
Tang Lie's eyesight had begun to gradually adapt to the dark environment. The light of the night pearl was reflected around him, and the water surface was rippled like fish scales. The underground river that had been violent just now suddenly became so gentle, which is really hard to imagine.
The river became wider and wider, and soft white sandy beaches began to appear on both sides of the underground river. Ling Ying tilted his body slightly, and the angle of his gliding suddenly changed. He landed smoothly on the river beach with Tang Lie on his back.
Tang Lie let go of Ling Ying's body and carefully stepped on the beach with his feet, making sure that he would not fall, and then took a step forward.
Ling Ying walked forward without saying a word. Next to a huge white rock, he used the dagger in his hand to dig out a black suitcase.
Tang Lie approached curiously, and his guess was indeed right. Ling Ying had been here before.
Ling Ying opened the black leather suitcase and found several leather jackets. He handed one of them to Tang Lie: "Change into it!"
Tang Lie quickly took off his clothes and put on a black leather coat, which was just the right size. Ling Ying found a glass bottle from the box, poured out a little liquid, and sprinkled it on Tang Lie's body. He explained in a low voice: "
Although the Thieves have poor eyesight, their sense of smell is extremely sensitive. This potion can make your body emit a body odor similar to theirs, so as to prevent them from seeing through your identity."
He took out the paintbrush from the box, dipped it in paint, and painted strange patterns on Tang Lie's face: "The bandits don't like to show others their true colors, which is just good for our actions."
He also found a suitable black leather suit and put it on, used dye to burn his hair black, painted patterns on his face, then put the clothes the two of them had changed into into a suitcase, and buried them again in the white sand under the giant rock.
.
The two of them walked along the river beach, but did not see any bandits along the way. After walking for more than ten miles, they saw a small ferry in front of them. A small Xinshi boat was moored quietly in front of the ferry.
A middle-aged bandit who made a living by doing this was dozing off while leaning there.
Hearing their footsteps, the bandit tribesman raised his head alertly. His ears and sense of smell were extremely sensitive, and he could tell that he was a member of his tribe by the smell of his body.
Ling Ying murmured hello to the bandit tribesman. The two came together and whispered something. The bandit tribesman kept shaking his head. After talking for a while, he nodded with a smile and patted Ling Ying enthusiastically.
shoulders.
Ling Ying took out a soybean-sized luminous pearl from his waist and stuffed it into the hands of the thieves. The thieves stared blankly at the brilliance of the luminous pearl and laughed ecstatically.
Ling Ying winked at Tang Lie, who understood and entered the boat first. Ling Ying uncovered the cable tied to the ferry, picked up the stone oar on the boat, and rowed with all his strength, so that the boat swam upstream against the current.
"Did you buy this boat?" Tang Lie asked curiously.
Ling Ying nodded: "If you want to go to Parthia, you must go through this way."
"Parthia?"
"Parthia in the mouth of the thieves means the city of heroes, but the real situation is chaos and disorder."
Tang Lie asked worriedly: "Have they been caught by Parthia?"
"After the thieves capture the prisoners and trophies, they will transport them all to Parthia, where they will thank the true god Dojo for his grace at their altar, and then distribute them. If everything goes well, we will get there before they distribute the trophies."
Thinking of Xuan Bo and Xuan'er falling into the hands of the bandits, Tang Lie's heart burned like fire, fearing that the bandits would do something bad to them.
Ling Ying seemed to have guessed Tang Lie's worries at this time, and whispered: "Don't worry, no one will be detrimental to the loot before worshiping the true god Duozhang, even Taitul, the leader of the bandits, dare not make an exception!"
Tang Lie looked at Ling Ying. Although he didn't know Ling Ying, he trusted Ling Ying very much in his heart. He believed that Ling Ying had the same purpose as himself: "Why do the Yi people call you a traitor?"
Ling Ying's dark blue eyes flickered in the darkness. He did not answer Tang Lie's question, but asked: "Where did you get to know that Wing Clan girl?"
Tang Lie sighed and said: "We are partners now and we must trust each other. Her name is Xuan'er. When I met her, I didn't know that she was from the Wing Clan and that her wings could make her invisible."
Lingying said: "Mminna has told me that your companion is a member of the Xiangkong family." Recalling the tragic situation when Mminna died, Lingying's cold eyes were moist, and he looked at Mminna.
With extraordinary feelings, this respectable old man raised him single-handedly.
"Are you also from the Xiangkong family?" Tang Lie seemed to have guessed something.
Ling Ying pursed his lips, neither admitting nor denying.
"Lu Ti Na Na... Lu Ti Na Na..." There was a faint cry of panic in the wind and waves. Tang Lie raised his eyes and looked up, but saw a thin figure squirming on the rocks not far away, as if he was moving.
Call for help.
"There's someone!" Tang Lie shouted loudly.
Ling Ying said expressionlessly: "Thieves, don't worry about him!"
"Zamone...Zamone..."
"Help...Help!" The bandit tribesman actually changed several languages in a short period of time. Now even Ling Ying couldn't help but feel curious. In his impression, language has always been the weakness of the bandit tribesmen.
The bandits who use so many languages must be extraordinary.
Tang Lie looked in the direction of the reef unbearably: "If we don't save him, maybe he will die!"
Ling Ying said calmly: "The place where he is is densely covered with rocks. I'm afraid that our boat will be smashed into pieces before it gets close. Is it worth doing this for a strange bandit tribesman?"
Tang Lie whispered: "But... we can't just watch him die. I'll row the boat and you fly over to save him!"
Ling Ying glanced at Tang Lie coldly: "Don't forget, we are now disguised as bandits. Do you want to take the initiative to expose your identity?"
Getting closer and closer to the reef, Tang Lie could see clearly that there was a young man with naked body on the reef. His hands and feet were chained up, the skin of his body had been soaked to the point of being swollen and pale, and his pale face was full of prayers.
and expectations.
"Help..." His voice was hoarse. Seeing the stone boat passing by, his eyes turned desperate again.
Tang Lie stood up and said, "I want to rescue him!" Without Ling Ying's consent, he jumped off the stone boat and swam towards the reef with all his strength.
Ling Ying was startled, sighed secretly, and changed the direction of the oar so that the stone boat stayed close to the reef.
The water flow nearby was very gentle. Tang Lie successfully reached the reef. The young man looked at Tang Lie gratefully: "Funina...Funina..." Tang Lie didn't understand what he meant. He probably didn't understand what he meant.
He should be thanking himself. He looked at the iron chains that cuffed the young man. He could not open them with the strength of his hands alone. He had no choice but to hold his arms up, let him wrap his arms around his neck, and carry him on his back to swim towards the stone boat.
.
With the help of Ling Ying, Tang Lie put the naked young man on the stone boat, and then climbed out of the water himself. Due to the long soak in the water, the young man's body was extremely cold, so he wrapped himself in the stone boat.
After a long time, he finally calmed down and looked at Tang Lie with gratitude: "Funina..."
Ling Ying glanced at him proudly: "Zadongli Mickey?"
The young man's pale face drooped, and then he stared at Ling Ying and said, "Aren't you from the Bandit tribe?"
The expressions of Tang Lie and Ling Ying changed dramatically at the same time. Fortunately, their faces were decorated with oil paint beforehand, and their expressions could not be changed from their appearance. They could not guess why this young man could identify them at a glance.
