Han Changmu's eyes showed appreciation and he nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Wang Xian and I did escape through the secret tunnel dug by the miners below. It's just a pity that those miners did not really dig through the secret tunnel. We found the bodies of many miners below. , and the huge boulder discovered by the water bandits in front was exactly what Li Sheng designed to make Wang Xian and I fall into a trap. By pushing the boulder, we can get out. Wang Xian and the others walked through the secret passage below. After getting into the trap, they can leave. Counting the time, they should have walked out. After pushing away the boulder, they can just block the trap and cover up the fact that there is a secret passage below."
Yao Yaoqing smiled brightly and flattered her loudly: "Your Excellency, I have no clues. I admire you for your humble position."
Han Changmu smiled: "Why do you sound so insincere to me?"
Yao Yao snorted, and saw that the water bandits had stopped from a distance, so he knew that they were already there, so he stopped talking to Han Changmu and flew after them.
Zhao Fusheng was originally leading a group of water bandits to stare at the boulder and discuss how to push the boulder as quickly as possible without hurting his own people. In a blink of an eye, he saw Yao Yao rushing towards him. He hurriedly smiled and said: "Sister-in-law Grandma, although this stone is big, we are all veterans of building bridges in mountains. Don’t worry, Grandma, we will be able to push the stone away in a while. Grandma, please stay away to avoid being hurt by the gravel above. ."
Yao Yao looked at the stone and sighed. No wonder Han Changmu wanted to lead the water bandits along this road. No one could push such a huge boulder away, and it might even hit him.
As expected, this old and cunning King of Hell is the only one who plots against others, and no one else plots against him. He never engages in loss-making business.
In recent years, Qingyun Village has made money well, and it has become famous because of the meat and wine on the mountain, the cotton-padded clothes and quilts when the weather is cold, and the cold water for hot weather, which has attracted the men from several surrounding villages and towns to go crazy and break their heads. Push up the mountain.
There are so many people who come to the mountain to seek refuge that some of them have to be screened before they can stay. Qingyun Village has its own set of criteria for selecting people.
You don’t need to take care of the family, and you can’t afford to feed a few more mouths.
Don't ask for it if you don't have any skills, it's obvious that you are just here to make a living.
If you have a history of committing crimes and don’t dare to listen to what the court says, then what Qingyun Village says is just bullshit.
Despite such harsh and unreasonable screening conditions, the number of people in Qingyun Village is still doubling every year. This shows how difficult people's livelihood is and how many people have no food to eat.
With the increasing number of people, there is not enough space in Qingyun Village to live in. Every year, mountains are opened to build houses, bridges and roads are built. In addition to robbing homes and houses, the water bandits have become experts in other trades.
On weekdays, water bandits joke with each other. In the future, if they don't become water bandits, they can still earn a living by relying on this craft.
It didn't take too long to dig out a mountain and build a cottage, so it would be even more effortless for so many people to push away such a huge boulder blocking the road.
"Gene Era"
Although the water bandits left Qingyun Village in a hurry, they all knew that they were fleeing for their lives, and they only brought with them the most valuable gold and silver jewelry, and the most convenient things they usually use.
A louder shout circled in the mine, and the clanging sound of knives and axes made the entire mine tremble violently.
The water bandits took off their shirts one after another, revealing their strong bronze arms. A dozen strong men
The huge water bandits stood under the boulder and shouted loudly.
Several water bandits skillfully climbed on top of these water bandits and stood on their shoulders, just in time to touch the highest point of the boulder.
On the top of the boulder, there are piles of gravel as big as a head, and the fine wind penetrates through the gaps in these gravels.
The water bandits raised their axes high and chopped hard at the rubble piled on the boulders.
Amidst the loud noise, sparks flew everywhere, and each knife left deep, white knife marks on the stone.
After just a few chops, the top gravel showed signs of loosening.
The water bandits did not dare to chop anymore, for fear that the gravel would fall and injure everyone, so they dug with their hands. They carefully took out a piece of gravel and threw it down. Then they all started to push it hard.
There were several loud noises, and the gravel piled on the boulders fell outside. Only some dust and gravel fell on the water bandit's head. It was a little dirty, but it did not hurt anyone.
After the gravel fell, uneven gaps were exposed on the top of the boulder. The wind carried dust and gravel, and the eyes were filled with gray.
Zhao Fusheng covered his mouth and coughed for a long time. After the dust cleared, he squinted his eyes and shouted: "Brothers, if you push harder, it will almost fall down. Let's go out quickly! Work harder!!"
The water bandits were all very capable, and it was a matter of life and death. No one would cheat on such a matter. People who were lagging behind also caught up. In just a moment, Han Changmu and Han Changmu were able to catch up. Wang Xian was helpless and the boulder finally came loose.
After a loud "rumbling" sound, a whole huge boulder completely collapsed toward the outside and hit the ground heavily. The thick dust accumulated over the years was scattered in all directions.
The sky-blocking dust swirled wildly in the mine tunnel and lingered for a long time. A clear grass fragrance slowly penetrated into the dirty wind.
Heavy coughs came one after another. Everyone covered their mouths with one hand and fanned the wind desperately with the other hand, hoping to disperse the dust as soon as possible.
After a while, the dust cleared, and Han Changmu lit the last torch, and a bright firelight illuminated the front of the mine tunnel.
Where the boulder collapsed, a thick layer of gravel and dust was left behind. Although the mine tunnel was still dark and there was no way forward, the silent breeze gradually began to make a whining sound.
The trap Li Sheng and Wang You dug just now was completely covered by the fallen boulders, leaving only a few pairs of messy footprints on the side.
One of the pairs, Han Changmu recognized at a glance, was the remnant of the gilt soles from the pair of sexy shoes worn by Han Changyun.
He slowly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Wang Xian and his party had walked out smoothly.
As soon as the road was clear, the water bandits jumped up happily and scrambled to the boulder, cleaning up the scattered stones on the boulder and moving forward.
The water bandits climbed over the boulders with difficulty, and as soon as they took two steps forward, they heard a frightened scream: "Oh, mother! There are dead people! It's scary, mother, there are dead people!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several water bandits ran back in a hurry, rolling and crawling, tripping over rocks and falling. Their voices changed and there was no human voice anymore: "Big, big Young Master, there is a dead person, there is a dead person in front."
Han Changmu's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt ominous.
He and Yao Yao looked at each other, quickly climbed over the boulder, and ran forward together.
Not far ahead, the water bandits crowded into a circle facing a stone wall. They were pointing towards the stone wall. They no longer had the fear when they saw the dead people at first, but instead watched the excitement. Extremely excited to watch.
Han Changmu and the other three pushed aside the crowd and walked to the front to take a look. They were all extremely surprised.
Seeing that the man's attire did not belong to any of Wang Xian's group, Han Changmu lost his initial fright when he heard the word "dead man".
A man was sitting under the stone wall, his head drooped, his bun falling down to cover his face, and his appearance could not be seen clearly. He was wearing the most common dark blue gown on the market, with a brocade belt tied around his waist, and his pale hands were exposed on the sleeves. On the curled-up legs, the rough fingertips were faintly black and blue.
Yao Yao stepped forward quickly, put his hand on the man's neck and tried it. He frowned and said loudly: "Sir, you still have some energy."
Han Changmu nodded: "Look who it is?"
Yao Yao quickly lifted up the man's loose hair, straightened his drooping face, took a look, and said in surprise: "Sir, look!"
This man's face was blue, and there was a faint black air covering his face. This was an obvious sign of being poisoned, but he didn't know what kind of poison he was poisoned.
Moreover, this person's face was particularly familiar. She had dealt with Han Changmu many times, and she was very familiar with Li Sheng.
Han Changmu also recognized this person at a glance. He was full of doubts. Li Sheng had been with Wang You. Later, Wang You went to the cliff to look for a map and was hung under the cliff. However, Li Sheng never showed a trace.
He always thought that Li Sheng should be hiding somewhere, like a silent and alert beast, staring at them in the open, waiting for opportunities to move.
Who knew that Li Sheng would appear here, and he looked like he was about to die soon.
He felt a sudden shock in his heart. He also knew Li Sheng's kung fu. Such a scene seemed a bit strange.
Before Han Changmu could speak, Zhao Fusheng suddenly felt as if he had seen a ghost, his eyes widened, and he stammered: "This, this, isn't this, Uncle Li? He, hasn't he gone down the mountain long ago? ?, why are you here?"
Han Changmu and Yao Yao both said, "Do you know him?"
Zhao Fusheng nodded and was about to speak, but Han Changmu raised his hand to stop him.
Han Changmu glanced at the water bandits who were surrounding him, then at the man's blue face, and said calmly: "Time is running out, let's leave here first and then go out."
Zhao Fusheng came to his senses, hurriedly called a water bandit over, picked up Li Sheng and walked out.
The long road that followed with no end in sight was the road that Han Changmu followed Li Sheng and the others. It was as smooth as when they came here, without any disturbance.
Everyone walked quickly, and when they walked out of the cave, a clear and clean mountain breeze hit their faces.
The mine tunnel was damp and stuffy, and people felt suffocated after staying there for a long time. At this time, everyone involuntarily let out a long sigh of relief.
But now he has come out, and now he has a way to survive.
The outside of the cave entrance is already far away from the mountain top where Qingyun Village is located, and even far away from where the Yu Lin Army is currently resting. It is a relatively safe place.
