Because the water flow was not turbulent, Qi Yoyo and others' work of intercepting the flow went smoothly. It only took an hour to complete, and the only female ghost they were worried about did not come out to cause trouble again.
The river was cut off, the water level rose, and poured into the cave. Qi Yoyo and several others took the wounded and evacuated the cave.
Because he was worried that Zhao Quan and the twelve men might be blocked by hostile forces and unable to complete their mission, Qi Yoyo did not dare to delay for a moment and led Qu Kai and others to move as fast as possible. If Zhao Quan and the others really did not complete the mission For the task, she would have more time to prepare if she left a moment earlier, at least to gain time to build a reservoir in front of the cave. Every drop of water is extremely precious right now and cannot be allowed to flow freely along the river.
Although they were traveling at full speed, they were still carrying nine wounded people, and they also had to pay attention to whether there were forks on both sides of the cave to prevent the river from flowing away, so their speed was far slower than that of Zhao Quan and the others.
After running around without sleep for two days and two nights, the group was already very hungry. As they were walking, a scent suddenly hit them. The scent was so tempting and irresistible that there was a sound of swallowing saliva and the growling of an empty stomach.
"Damn! What smells so good?" Qu Kai shouted in great displeasure, because he was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, and smelling such an alluring fragrance was as painful as being tortured.
"It seems to smell like grilled fish." One person said while swallowing his saliva.
"Damn it!" Qi Yoyo complained in his heart, then stopped and said, "Eat something and rest for a while."
Her plan was to run out of the cave in one breath, but she was disrupted by this untimely and alluring scent. Because everyone, including herself, was holding on for a breath, but this alluring scent made their breath go away. If you continue to hold on, it will only multiply the torture and pain. It is better to stop, eat something and rest for a while.
However, eating cakes and drinking cold water with the alluring aroma in the air is simply mental torture.
"Damn, am I too hungry, or what? How come this smell is so good? It feels like it's about to take away my soul." Qu Kai bitterly tore off a large mouthful of dry biscuits, and held it in his mouth. It tastes like chewing wax, and I feel extremely depressed.
"I also feel that my soul is about to be taken away." One person echoed.
"No! It can't be the incense of ecstasy, right?" One person's face changed drastically and he exclaimed.
"Go away!" Qu Kai scolded angrily, "Who would light the incense in this ghost cave? Besides, if it was really the incense, we would have been damned already. I smell like it too. The smell of grilled fish.”
Qi Yoyo nibbled on the dry biscuits one bite at a time. She was also agitated by the alluring fragrance in the air. The dry and hard corn biscuits tasted like chewing wax in her mouth and were difficult to swallow. If she didn't need to eat to replenish her strength, she would be forced to She swallowed it by herself, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to take a bite.
She gnawed on the dry biscuits and frowned as she searched through her memories. As soon as she smelled the alluring fragrance in the air, she felt an extremely familiar feeling. She was sure she had smelled it somewhere, but she just couldn't remember.
Chunlan heard the conversation between Qu Kai and others, shook her head and muttered in a low voice: "How can it be grilled fish? How can grilled fish have such an alluring fragrance?"
She is quite confident in her own judgment, because although she is a maid, she is Qi Yoyo's personal maid, and Qi Yoyo has always been generous to the four of them, and will reward them with some good food and drink. Let the four of them try something new, so she has basically eaten all kinds of delicious grilled fish in Yancheng, and the most delicious grilled fish she has ever eaten, its taste is not even one percent as good as the fragrance in the air in front of her, so She was absolutely certain it wasn't the smell of grilled fish.
"Fish?" Qi Yoyo murmured to himself, then suddenly his eyes lit up and he cried out, "I remembered what the fragrance is."
brush.
Everyone's eyes fell on Qi Yoyo.
"It tastes like dry rice. I was lucky enough to eat it once when I was six years old." Qi Yoyo said in surprise. Because it was too long ago, she couldn't remember it for a moment, but the delicious taste of Hantie would never be forgotten after tasting it once, so even though it was more than ten years apart, she still remembered it.
Oops!
Everyone had a strange look on their face. They were not shocked by Hantie's name, because they had never heard of Hantie at all. They were shocked by what Qi Yoyo said.
The eldest daughter of the dignified City Lord's Mansion was held in the hand of the City Lord and pampered by him. She flew in the sky, jumped on trees, ran on the ground, and swam in the river. She had never tasted any delicacies from the mountains and seas, but she actually said she was six years old. I was lucky enough to eat it once that year, and just the word "lucky" pushed the height of this thing called "Hantie" to the sky.
"Miss, what is Hantie?" Chunlan asked curiously.
"Hantie is -" Qi Yoyo opened his mouth to explain, but stopped abruptly as soon as the words came out. He stood up suddenly, threw the dry biscuits in Chunlan's arms, and said hastily: "I'll leave first. One step, go ahead and chase the three Zhang Xiaopawns. After you finish eating, hurry up and follow them."
Before she finished speaking, she ran out with a torch and disappeared from the sight of Chunlan and others in the blink of an eye, leaving a group of people confused and looking at each other. His mind was spinning so fast that he couldn't help but laugh. He thought Qi Yoyo was chasing Zhang Xiaozu and the other three to eat the delicious food.
Who would get food in this cave? There was no one else except Zhang Xiaozu and the others, because Zhao Quan and others had an urgent mission and it was impossible to stop to bake something to eat, so only Zhang Xiaozu and the other three were left.
This can be thought of after a little thought, and Qi Yoyo would not have thought of it, so she directly said that she would chase Zhang Xiaozu and the others.
However, Qi Yoyo would definitely not be as shameless as Qu Kai and others thought. She wanted to catch up with Zhang Xiaozu and the others to eat delicious food. She suddenly thought of the medicinal value of Hantie.
Women are irresistible to beauty.
Qi Yoyo is no exception.
But she wanted the spring dew in Hantie's body not for a beautiful face, but to remove the hideous scars on her chest. Just use a knife to cut out the old scars, and then apply spring dew on the wounds. The regenerated skin will be as tender as a baby, and the scars will disappear naturally.
"Three idiots, please don't waste everything!" Qi Yoyo murmured anxiously as he moved forward quickly, fearing that Zhang Xiaozu and the others only knew how to eat but didn't know the value of the spring dew in Hantie's body.
The further Qi Yoyo walked forward, the stronger the fragrance in the air became, seducing all the greedy insects in her stomach, and her shriveled belly kept screaming. Seeing that no one was around, she swallowed hard and grunted, making her cheeks turn red with embarrassment.
I thought I could catch up with Zhang Xiaozu and the others soon after following the scent, but unexpectedly I didn't see the three of them after walking for two quarters of an hour, but the scent in the air became stronger and stronger.
"It is indeed a fairy scent in the world, the fragrance can float so far!" Qi Yoyo couldn't help but sigh.
But suddenly a pungent rotten smell and the smell of burnt hair hit her face. Qi Yoyo's breathing was stagnant, her abdomen was surging, and she almost vomited.
"What's going on? How come there is a rotting smell in the cave?" Qi Yoyo said with a frightened expression. There was a vague premonition in his heart, and the speed of his feet immediately increased.
…
When Niu Dawa heard Zhou Jianlai's exclamation, he jumped up from the ground and jumped to Zhang Xiaopou's side.
"Look at the center of his eyebrows." Zhou Jianlai pointed at Zhang Xiaopou's eyebrows to remind Niu Dawa.
At Zhou Jianlai's reminder, Niu Dawa saw the blood line between Zhang Xiaozhu's eyebrows at a glance, and immediately asked Zhou Jianlai in surprise: "What is that?"
"I don't know either." Zhou Jianlai shook his head, "If you look carefully, the whole body of the pawn is corroded by corpse poison, except for the blood line between the eyebrows. It seems that it is resistant to corpse poison."
"Why does it look like an eye?" Niu Dawa stared at the blood line between Zhang Xiaozu's eyebrows and frowned slightly.
"It does look like an eye." Zhou Jianlai nodded.
Niu Dawa suddenly looked up at Zhou Jianlai and lowered his voice and asked tentatively: "Are you sure this blood line belongs to the pawn and is not possessed by a ghost and is a ghost eye? Bah bah bah - nonsense, How could the pawn be possessed by a ghost? This blood line must be his magic weapon to save his life. He will soon use his power to kill all the poisonous corpses."
Without waiting for Zhou Jian to answer, Niu Dawa denied his scary guess.
But Zhou Jianlai heard Niu Dawa's terrifying thoughts and couldn't help but feel horrified. Moreover, he found that the blood line between Zhang Xiaozu's eyebrows became more red than before, as if it was really about to open.
Zhou Jianlai quietly moved a small step to the right, and the bone knife was lying at his feet. If Zhang Xiaopou was really possessed by a monster and turned into a monster, he would immediately pick up the bone knife and end Zhang Xiaopou's life.
But as soon as he stood still, Niu Dawa suddenly took a big step towards him, blocking half of his body and blocking his attack line. Niu Dawa whispered: "As long as the pawn He is still alive, no matter he is a human or a ghost, I will never allow others to hurt him. Just in case - Brother Zhou, please leave first."
Zhou Jianlai was quite surprised. He didn't expect Niu Dawa to be so attentive. He just moved a small step and Niu Dawa guessed what he was thinking. He stared at Niu Dawa's back, his expression was a little dazed for a moment, and suddenly he felt that he had been deceived by Niu Dawa's rough appearance. This seemingly silly guy was actually very thoughtful.
