At that time, the entrance to the cave was already littered with corpses, and most of them had stepped on the traps and suffered to death. The traps set up by the Yuan family and their grandson looked very powerful. The corpses of the Taiping Taoists were scattered in various directions, with different signs of death.
Sporadic fighting sounds continued. Fu Wentao held a special weapon and fought with Yin Qianchou several times. The two yelled and screamed one after another, but neither of them dared to act rashly. It was not until Bai Feng and others came to help that the situation began to change.
Although the Taiping Taoists surrounded the cave door, they had been waiting outside for a day and a night, and they had been defeated and restrained by Su Qing and Zhao Kuo, who had been ambushing them for a long time. Their morale dropped sharply, far from what it was before.
The defeated person will be killed or injured, and the best result is to escape, especially when the tomb is about to collapse.
Bai Feng told Yin Qianchou and the Taiping Taoists around him everything Lei Heng had done, and asked them not to stay in the cave and wait to die.
Seeing that almost all the allies around him had left him, Yin Qianchou still had no intention of retreating. He only heard him panting heavily and roaring in a low voice: "Young master, I will try my best to fight for the conspiracy." How can I give up on a serious job and get rid of the poor life of the past? Tell me, can I let you go?"
After hearing this, Bai Feng knew that his determination was hard to change, so he put E Feiying down on his back and handed it to Murong Yan beside him to take care of him. He then urged others to take the opportunity to get out of the cave, and walked to Yin Qianchou and said with a smile. : "Since you want to die so much, let me give you a ride down here!"
After those words, Bai Feng got entangled with Yin Qianchou, blocked the exit with his sword, and exchanged blows with the desert golden sword several times. They fought and retreated, buying some time for their friends to escape.
The two grandfathers and grandsons of Yuan Fengzi, who were empty-handed at the side, did not just run away. They each picked up the swords and weapons that had been left everywhere, and rushed forward with Fu Wentao.
Fu Wentao was in front of everyone, still confronting the other Taiping Taoists in front of the cave. After all, it was difficult for two fists to defeat four hands, not to mention that he only had one arm. Even now, there are two mediocre martial arts masters, Yuan Fengzi and Ayu. The blacksmith's help was of no avail.
For a time, the confrontation between the several parties reached a deadlock.
"Boom, boom, boom..." Suddenly, a loud noise came from the depths of the cave, and the echoes were as terrifying as thunder from the blue. The subsequent shaking of the cave and the mountain would make the soles of the timid people weak. , staggered several times in succession.
After this loud noise, rubble began to fall from the top of the cave, as if one of the Optimus Primes supporting the dome had been blown off. The strange rocks and sharp pieces on the top continued to fall down. It seemed that this lair The decline has reached an irreversible point.
When the Taoists who were surrounding the outside saw this, they immediately stepped back a few feet. Everyone's face had a look of luck as if they had escaped disaster. The intensive sound of weapons clashing just now was silenced in an instant, leaving only a few flying arrows passing by his ears from time to time.
In the dark cave, it seemed as if a force was about to burst out.
Bai Feng and Yin Qianchou did not seek victory in the battle, but only delayed it for a while. Therefore, the young swordsman resisted while retreating out of the cave, not daring to fight even half a minute. Bai Feng was thinking that he could just take the opportunity to escape, but he never expected that his friends behind him still hadn't completely escaped from the cave, and some were even injured by falling rocks, making it difficult to escape from the predicament.
"Sister Ying, what's wrong with you?"
"My foot was broken by a falling rock... Please leave quickly and leave me alone!"
The young swordsman who was still restraining Yin Qianchou at this time overheard this conversation and realized that he was close to the exit. He only had to walk through another straight tunnel to leave this place completely.
However, Murong Yan and E Feiying were faltering for some reason and found it difficult to continue. Looking at Murong Yan, who was usually very delicate and frail, she just silently endured helpless tears, endured the impact of countless gravel above her head, and tried her best to help the girl beside her.
Seeing this situation, Bai Feng immediately changed his moves in an attempt to get rid of Yin Qianchou's entanglement. He immediately took a half step forward. It looked like he was going to directly attack the opponent's golden sword, but in fact, he was trying to dodge sideways at the next moment. Follow the trend and move your body.
I saw the young swordsman spin around to avoid a heavy blow, then bend down and swing the sword from bottom to top directly at the opponent's eyes. This dazzling and cold killing move made it difficult for people to guard against, and Yin Qianqiu was horrified. He also had to retreat and retreat to adjust his posture.
Taking advantage of this short opportunity, Bai Feng quickly rushed to the two girls, making a show of carrying E Feiying on his body, and urged Murong Yan to flee out of the cave quickly, saying: "Yan'er, you don't have to worry about me. , just think about escaping outside quickly!"
Looking at the other party's clothes and face that were full of blood and filth, Murong Yan looked confused for a moment before she nodded in agreement, then reluctantly looked at them who were struggling to walk, and trotted away under the "rain of gravel".
Just when Murong Yan walked out of the cave, she had just turned around to see how Bai Feng and the two were doing, when an even stronger roar suddenly sounded in the cave.
But after a moment, an invisible heat wave came. It seemed to have broken the ridge, causing more rocks to fall one after another in an instant, completely sealing the entrance to the cave.
In order to protect the injured E Feiying, Bai Feng pressed her under him at the critical moment. Unexpectedly, a few pieces of gravel hit his head. He suddenly felt that all five senses were lost, except that he could hear Murong Yan not far away. Apart from the screams, the only thing left was the breathing and pulse of the girl beneath him.
At the same time, the Desert Golden Knife, which had been chasing closely, relied on the giant blade in its hand to protect it and easily escaped the disaster. Seeing that Bai Feng was in a desperate situation, he refused to let go of the opportunity. He immediately came over with a knife and tried to cut open half of his unconscious body on the ground.
At the moment of lightning, E Feiying, who was being protected, saw that something was not going well. The fifth young lady of the E family, who had gone through all kinds of twists and turns, finally made the most important decision in her life - she tried her best to With a lifetime of strength, he pushed the young man to the side, then sat up from the ground and faced the fierce slash with his physical body.
In an instant, blood spattered everywhere, staining the chest and hands of the fifth young lady. She desperately grabbed the golden knife that was slashed on her chest, vomiting blood from her mouth, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Bai Feng, wake up quickly, don't be so groggy anymore..."
"Smelly bitch, now you're trying to ruin my good deeds! Let go and stop struggling pointlessly!"
Before Yin Qianqiu finished speaking, he suddenly felt a cold light flashing in the dark front, about to hit his face. He immediately put the sword away and raised it up, and jumped back at the same time. He only heard a dull "clang" sound and a flash of fire, and then he saw clearly that it was the young swordsman's dragon-crying sword.
I saw Bai Feng put down the scabbard of his sword and was cutting open his own clothes to bandage the wound on E Feiying's chest. He tried his best to comfort the other person with all his words. But serious injuries bring not only severe pain, but also the despair of dying.
E Feiying looked at Bai Feng's helpless eyes, with tears constantly leaking out of her eyes, and said weakly: "Go...kill him, leave me alone..."
After a while, Bai Feng picked up the scabbard of the sword again and silently approached Yin Qianqiu step by step. You must know that even the weak light source is lost in the cave at this time, and what is left is only the pitiful night vision ability that humans are born with.
At least in the eyes of the desert golden sword, Bai Feng at this moment was like the King of Hell seeking his life. He didn't say a word, maybe he was looking for an opportunity to kill with his terrifying eyes.
"Come on, you bastard, kill me, and you will become famous!" The Desert Golden Sword finally let go of his hateful words in a hoarse and imperfect voice out of fear for the first time. His usual condescending arrogance was gone now.
After several clashes of weapons and sparks flying in the darkness, Yin Qianchou fell down and could not get up again.
The only two people left in the cave did not give up the chance of survival. Bai Feng accidentally recalled that Taoist Lei Heng had mentioned the "robber cave" he entered, and planned to find a way to rescue E Feiying from there to seek treatment.
E Feiying lay in the other person's arms and just replied softly "Okay". At this time, neither of them could clearly see the other's current expression, and could only detect some truth from the words.
So along the way, Bai Feng kept saying encouraging words to E Feiying, trying to make her think that she still had a chance to survive, and the girl just replied weakly, "Okay, okay...", not wanting to neglect the other person's concern at all. words.
In order to explore the way in the dark, Bai Feng had to take out the fire stick on his body and hold it in his mouth for lighting, because the girl in his arms had completely lost the ability to move.
The cave was completely unrecognizable due to the drastic changes, and the location of the thief's cave was extremely blurry. Bai Feng could only deduce the escape direction of Lei Heng and others based on the few footprints and traces left on the ground. He had no clue as to the specific location of the robbery hole.
The two talked about each other's affairs as they drew water from a nearby underground pool to recuperate. They talked a lot and discussed a lot, but they never mentioned the love between men and women. Then, E Feiying accidentally said: "Why do you always have a bunch of bells hanging on your body?"
Just when he was about to lose all hope, the young man remembered the story about the string of bells.
"That's a mysterious legend."
Then, Bai Feng gently shook the bell a few times, then held it in the palm of his hand and prayed silently several times. Finally, he struggled to call out Murong Yan's name: "Yan'er, Yan'er, we are here!"
A few moments later, the stone wall near the boy was suddenly hollowed out from the outside, and a bright light shone in from the outside - that was the light of the torches in the hands of the friends.
"We are saved, Miss E!" Bai Feng was delighted and held the girl in his arms, preparing to follow the firelight out of the cave.
Unexpectedly, E Feiying suddenly stopped the other party and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Bai Feng, I...don't forget the agreement between us..."
"I will definitely avenge your father. No, as long as you are still alive, I am willing to do anything for you!"
"Ha..." She smiled, so sad and charming, "It's a pity... please forgive me... for my last willfulness..."
After all, this woman, who many people call a heroine among women, used her last strength to condense all the tenderness, love and hatred into a "kiss" that contained all the complex emotions.
She suddenly bit the corner of Bai Feng's mouth hard until hot blood oozed there, enough for her to drink.
"We shed our blood to swear an oath and never abandon it..." After saying this, E Feiying held Bai Feng's blood in her mouth and shed her last tear...
The spark of life is gradually extinguished, but it remains in people's hearts in another form. Xianbei's fairy tale is said to be the soul in the "blood stone", but for more people, it is like an old scar on the body, permanently carved somewhere in the body.
Such scars, even if painful, are rarely depressing. Just like the sword pattern on the Longming Sword today, its appearance will only make people stronger.
