With one arm and one leg, Wang Beigu found it difficult to face Chen Yuan who had all his hands and feet in such a situation.
Mei Bei received Mei You successfully. She was about to open her mouth to help Wang Beigu when Mei You took Mei Bei's arm and retreated to the secret passage.
"Don't wait for that..."
Mei Bei didn't expect that Mei You would be so decisive and wanted to retreat, regardless of Wang Beigu's wishes.
"He can rest assured when we leave. Staying here for a long time will actually drag him down."
It is rare in the world for someone like Wang Beigu, who is "missing an arm and a leg," to be able to command his team to go forward and do things in person.
Even when they met up close today, Mei You saw that the other party didn't have the crutches he usually carried.
The only one left standing with a long sword in his hand stood firm.
Meiyou glanced down slightly and found that there were some prosthetic-like things placed in the other's empty trouser legs to support him.
It's just that the high-tech prostheses made in later generations occasionally cause discomfort, let alone the crude benzene gadgets made now.
If it were easy to carry things on weekdays, the other person wouldn't be using a cane all the time.
Therefore, Mei Youcai was unwilling to hold back and retreated with Mei Berry.
The longer they delay here, the worse it will be for each other.
"Don't leave! Leave them all behind!"
As soon as Chen Yuan turned his head, he noticed the actions of Mei Bei and the others.
He faced Wang Beigu, but he kept ordering his men to attack the secret passage.
Even though everyone here was dead, everyone realized that there were still a lot of soldiers rushing towards here.
God knows how many people Chen Yuan left to ambush here!
"Are you crazy?!"
After roughly calculating the number of soldiers here, Wang Beigu was surprised to find that this man did not seem to focus all his attention on defending the city!
What is this person trying to do?
Are you not afraid that the city will be destroyed now?
"What a discerning eye!"
Chen Yuan sneered and raised his sword with both hands to strike at the opponent. Not only was the opponent blocked with one hand, the opponent actually had time to "settle the score" for him.
"I didn't know that Jiubaoxuan in Yunzhou was so capable. In just a few years, its business has become very successful. King Qi, you are really willing to spend a lot of money."
Wang Beigu:?
·
Meiberry and the others followed Shopkeeper Ma and others into the secret passage. Meiberry had only seen from the electronic map that the secret passage hidden underneath was divided into two parts: "upper" and "lower". But now they entered the "lower" secret passage. Discover why it is "down".
The secret passage was narrow and steep, and the ground was slippery. Everyone used the weapons in their hands to stabilize themselves as they walked.
If you are not careful, you will fall and roll several meters away.
Meiberry had already slipped several times before taking two steps. If Meiyou hadn't held her up, she would have rolled down directly.
"This, the road here is too difficult!"
Meiberry recalled that when the electronic map showed that this secret passage was divided into two parts: upper and lower, she didn't take it seriously at that time.
When it was her turn to walk on the road down the mountain, Mei Berry truly understood what a downward path meant.
On this road, you have to be extremely careful going down, let alone going up.
I can't kill you!
"Be careful on the road."
As Mei You spoke, she held Mei Bei's wrist tighter, fearing that Mei Bei would slip away.
Meiyou led Meiberry cautiously, stepping firmly on each step before continuing, so gradually, she and Meiyou fell at the back.
And the mule cub has been following Mayberry.
The mule boy didn't know where he learned it from, so he opened his mouth and bit Meiberry's back collar, and helped Meiberry stabilize her body.
Seeing this, Mei You couldn't help but smile even in such a tense environment.
"The mule you raised is very good."
Meiyou praised.
Mei Bei felt very imageless about herself now. Her hair was disheveled and she was biting her collar and looking like she was shrinking.
If someone in front turned around, they would be scared to death by Mei Berry like this.
Everyone kept walking down, and they didn't know how long they had been walking. There was a faint light in front of them.
When Meiberry and the others reached the light source, Meiberry found that the originally narrow secret passage suddenly widened.
They entered the heart of a huge mountain.
Mayberry looked up at the source of the light.
It turned out that there was a gap at the top, and the moon, which had hidden in the first half of the night, appeared again from behind the dark clouds, illuminating everything.
There was a sound of waves in the water, and when Meiberry heard the sound, she went to see a narrow suspension bridge directly in front of them.
The sound of water is caused by the raging underground river water under the bridge.
"Pause for a moment and rest for a while."
It seemed that the large troops in front could not catch up. Shopkeeper Ma and his group had been fighting outside for a while, and they had passed through the passage that was exhausting their energy. No one objected to the idea of taking a rest at this moment.
Meiberry stood there and took out three juicy carrots from her treasure bag, one for herself and Meiyou, and stuffed one into the mule's mouth.
In the quiet heart of the mountain, the sound of the mule gnawing carrots was really loud after being tired all night.
Some people's lips were peeling from thirst. When they saw a mule eating there, they didn't know what to feel.
"This mule will make a great contribution tonight."
Someone in the team took the lead in teasing Mayberry, the mule.
It's not that I'm jealous, I just think about the mule's behavior tonight. As an owner, I can understand that I feel distressed and want to feed him some carrots.
This mule was like a spirit. It didn't make any noise when it was running forward. When the fight started, everything around it turned into a mess. It wasn't afraid or yelled. It knocked down the soldiers who rushed in front of it, and they were far away. .
It's really amazing to be able to follow Mayberry so faithfully all the time! .
Probably when he heard someone praising himself, the mule boy was really happy. He hummed and kicked his hooves on the ground twice.
"Okay, okay, don't move your feet, it's making a lot of noise, and the sand and gravel are shaking all over the floor..."
Mei Bei said the first half of the sentence with a smile on her face. At the end of the sentence, she couldn't help but draw her sword and point at the secret passage behind her. Mei You also reacted immediately.
Someone is coming to the secret passage.
"My own people!"
Hearing Lin Shoucai's voice, the hearts of Mei Bei and the others suddenly fell back into their stomachs.
I saw several more men in black running out of the secret passage. They were all the same people who had followed Wang Beigu on his previous mission.
At this moment, their bodies were still somewhat injured.
Finally, Wang Beigu also walked out of the secret passage.
The half of the mask on his face had fallen off, and the horrifying scars on that half immediately appeared in the eyes of Mei Berry and Mei You. It was impossible not to startle them.
That half of the face had irregular bumps and irregular pink flesh all over it. Compared with the intact half of the face, it was like a sky and an earth.
"How...how did it hurt?"
When Meiberry saw the half-ruined face, she was frightened and felt a little uncomfortable.
Such a scar must have been extremely painful at the time.
After hearing Mei Liang's question, Wang Beigu, who was surrounded by his subordinates and was asking if he was injured or anything, turned back to Mei Li and Mei You who were standing not far away.
For some reason, Mei Bei looked at Wang Beigu who was standing there surrounded by people. The slender figure seemed familiar to Mei Bei.
Especially when he turned sideways and looked at himself.
"Being tricked."
Mayberry:......
What a bullshit answer.
·
Now that Wang Beigu is here, whether it's because everyone has arrived or because Chen Yuan is chasing after them, they should hit the road immediately.
Mayberry really never thought that characters that did not appear in the book would be so troublesome.
Just when they were about to cross the bridge, Chen Yuan actually caught up with them again!
Even the other party came not from the secret passage they came down from, but from the other side of the mountain.
Chen Yuan personally carried a crossbow, followed by a group of crossbowmen who looked at Wang Beigu and the others fiercely.
Meiberry's expression changed when she saw this.
【Mist grass! Is there a passage between the "upper" and "lower" secret passages that can communicate with each other? ! ! ! 】
The map in Mei Berry's head expanded again the moment Chen Yuan appeared.
After Meiberry zoomed in countless times, she was shocked to discover that there were actually several interconnected paths between these two closely adjacent secret passages!
And Chen Yuan copied it directly from a secret passage next door.
Mayberry: Ah ah ah, the system has tricked me! You don't remind me.
System: Shouldn't you reflect on why you don't read the map carefully?
Mayberry: I'm going to end our relationship with you! Ignore me!
System: Just don’t be so sweet.
Mayberry:......
