This tree was not thick to begin with, but now it is carrying the weight of two people, and it can no longer support it. Now the roots of the tree have begun to loosen, making a creepy rustling sound. I'm afraid it won't be long.
It will be completely separated from the stone wall.
Li Meng glanced at the small tree, his face suddenly became extremely calm, and asked softly: "Uncle, do you think I can be a general in the future?"
Xu Zizhen clutched the tree trunk with his right hand, with veins popping out on the back of his hand. He firmly held Li Meng's belt with his left hand and gritted his teeth and said, "Of course you can. Don't be discouraged, kid. Hold on for me!"
Li Meng was silent for a moment and said: "Uncle, I don't dare to think about general, but I want to wear a general's armor. Remember to bring it to me when you get it, okay?"
Xu Zizhen was startled and immediately realized something was wrong, and shouted hurriedly: "What do you want to do?"
Li Meng suddenly grinned innocently: "Uncle, take care of yourself!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly pulled open his belt, and his body fell rapidly. In the blink of an eye, he was mercilessly swallowed by the dark cliff.
Xu Zizhen's hand flicked, and he subconsciously reached out to grab him, but in the end he couldn't reach him. His eyes were about to burst, and he let out a shocking roar: "Xiao Meng!"
The mountain wind whistled, mixed with snowflakes, and Xu Zizhen stared blankly at the dark valley bottom, hanging on the edge of the cliff like a statue.
A ball of raging anger ignited in his heart. He didn't know since when, he had regarded Li Meng as his closest person in this world. Originally, he was ready to fulfill his promise to transform himself in the previous life.
All the knowledge he learned was taught to him, so that he could truly become a pillar of the Song Dynasty.
But now, this goal can no longer be achieved. Just because of the ghosts and Sanjuetang, he and Li Meng were forced to jump off the cliff. In the end, Li Meng sacrificed his life for justice and gave up his life.
Xu Zizhen's eyes were red, his teeth were clenching, he raised his head and shouted at the cliff: "Sanjuetang, if I don't destroy you, your fucking surname will not be Xu!"
Liu Fengsui's anxious voice could be heard vaguely above his head: "Brother, Xiao Meng, how are you doing?"
Xu Zizhen took a deep breath. He must not panic at this time. Li Meng had left his life to himself. He must not let down the chance he had bought with his life. He gritted his teeth and pulled out the Tang Dao, holding it tightly against the cliff.
He found a crack in the wall and inserted it hard.
Time passed by minute by second, and Xu Zizhen's face and hands were already numb from the cold, but he still tried his best to insert his knife into the cracks in the rocks, climbing up with difficulty, without knowing how to pass.
After a long time, I finally saw Liu Fengsui climbing on the edge of the cliff.
Liu Fengsui also saw him at the same time, and a look of relief and surprise suddenly appeared on his anxious and nervous face: "Brother, are you okay?"
Xu Zizhen shook his head expressionlessly, gritted his teeth and struggled to crawl to Liu Fengsui's side. As soon as his hand touched the narrow stone path, he seemed to have lost strength, clinging to the cliff and unable to move anymore.
Liu Fengsui was still looking down, but he still didn't see Li Meng coming up. Then he suddenly realized that something was wrong and said in a voiceless voice: "Brother, where is Xiao Meng?"
Xu Zizhen looked at the bottomless cliff at his feet and did not answer for a long time. Liu Fengsui's face gradually froze. He already roughly understood what had happened. After a long time, Xu Zizhen finally spoke slowly, with a hoarse voice and said in a deep voice:
"Second brother, let's find a way down the mountain first, and I'll accompany you to heal your injuries."
Liu Fengsui immediately understood what he meant, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! Let's go to avenge Xiaomeng together after I recover from my injuries!"
Xu Zizhen nodded, said nothing, and carefully moved along the mountain path step by step. Liu Fengsui followed closely behind, his body clinging to the cliff.
There is an abyss under their feet, and they will fall to pieces if they are not careful. Xu Zizhen and Liu Fengsui are not afraid of death, but now they don't want to die, because there is a firm belief supporting them, that is, they must find a way out for
Li Meng takes revenge!
The hard work paid off. Just when the two of them had almost exhausted all their energy, they finally followed the stone path and turned to a mountain road cut along the cliff. The snow had gradually stopped, and the sky was turning white.
Xu Zizhen finally helped Liu Fengsui climb onto the main road. Looking at the winding but much flatter mountain road ahead, he took a deep breath and said, "Second brother, can you still hold on?"
Liu Fengsui's face became paler, but he still managed to smile: "You have to hold on even if you can't hold on. I can't die if Sanjue Hall is not destroyed!"
Xu Zizhen laughed: "Well said! Let's go down the mountain!"
After a night of climbing, both of them had exhausted their physical strength to the limit. They walked along the mountain road for a long time and finally arrived at the foot of the mountain. It was already bright, and the sky after the wind and snow looked particularly clear and blue, with the sun shining through.
The coniferous forest at the foot of the mountain sheds a patchwork of tiny spots of light on the ground.
Xu Zizhen stepped on the ground covered with fallen leaves, feeling the softness. He could no longer hold on. His feet gave way and he fell to the ground. He felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and his mind was getting more and more blurred. Finally, he saw something in front of his eyes.
Black fainted.
…
I don’t know how long it took, but Xu Zizhen gradually regained his consciousness. His eyelids moved and he slowly opened his eyes. A surprised voice beside him rang: "Strong man, are you awake?"
Xu Zizhen was startled and subconsciously turned over and sat up, but then he was stunned. What he saw was a small carriage. The interior was covered with thick fur and the windows were tightly taped.
, leaving no gaps exposed, making the car extremely warm. Sitting next to him was a kind-hearted middle-aged man, looking at him with a smile.
"Uncle, you saved me? I...where am I?" Xu Zizhen couldn't react for a moment and asked blankly.
The middle-aged man said: "Just wake up. Just lie down and don't move. I found you at the foot of Helan Mountain. I didn't know where you were going, so I asked you to rest in the car first." He said.
Then he opened some of the curtains and looked outside, and then said, "We have just passed Shunzhou at this time. I wonder where you are going, little brother?"
Xu Zizhen asked anxiously: "Where is my companion? Can you see it, uncle?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Your companion is in another car, don't worry."
Xu Zizhen breathed a sigh of relief and bowed respectfully: "Thank you very much, uncle, for saving my life. I haven't asked you how to address me yet?"
The middle-aged man smiled and waved his hands and said: "Brother, don't be so polite. My surname is Bu Mingfen, and I am just a businessman... By the way, I don't know where I plan to go?"
Xu Zizhen thought for a while and asked: "I haven't decided yet, where is Uncle Bu planning to go?"
Bu Fen smiled: "Brother, do you want to travel with me? My caravan is going to Tibet."
