A knife in love

Chapter 1896

Murong Danyan held his breath and listened carefully. After a while, he heard the occasional "cracking" sound coming from the front.She was startled for a moment, and after listening for a while, she said to Li Qiufeng: "I can vaguely hear the sound of clattering, but I don't know how it came out."

Just now when Li Qiufeng was talking to Murong Danyan, Wang Xiaoyu could hear them clearly.So Murong Danyan listened carefully, and Wang Xiaoyu also pricked up his ears, listening carefully to the movement ahead.She also heard the faint "squeak" sound, but she couldn't hear it very clearly. She thought to herself that the sound came and went, but it was a bit like the sound made by the flame on the torch when it was blown by the wind.After Murong Danyan finished speaking, Wang Xiaoyu hurriedly said, "Hero Li, Sister Murong, is it the sound from the torch?"

Li Qiufeng shook his head, and said: "At first, Li also thought it was the sound made by the flame on the torch being blown by the wind, but after listening to it for a long time, it didn't sound like it. Li couldn't make a decision for a while, so I asked Murong Let’s take a closer look, girls.”

After he finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly continued: "Miss Wang is smart and clever, so why not tell me about it."

Wang Xiaoyu thought to herself, Daxia Li obviously didn't think of this girl, but just wanted to discuss with Sister Murong.But after he finished speaking, he remembered that he didn't mention my name, worried that the girl would be angry, and added another sentence.Hmph, it's okay if you don't add it, but adding this girl's name, isn't it obvious that this girl is not in your eyes?

The more Wang Xiaoyu thought about it, the angrier he became, but he didn't dare to attack, so he kept silent.Qi Jiu walked at the end, he was a cautious person, he was afraid that there would be something strange in the secret path, so he was more than two feet away from Wang Xiaoyu, listening to the movement around him while walking.When Wang Xiaoyu stopped, Qi Jiu also stopped, turned his back to Wang Xiaoyu and the others, and stared at the way he came from.After waiting for a while, Wang Xiaoyu and the others did not move on.Knowing something was wrong, Qi Jiu quietly backed away, until she was about a foot behind Wang Xiaoyu, and then stopped.

At that time, Wang Xiaoyu, Murong Danyan and Li Qiufeng were all listening carefully to what was going on in front of them. No one spoke. Qi Jiu didn't know what was going on, but Li Qiufeng didn't ask, nor did he ask.The secret passage suddenly fell silent, only the sound of "whoosh" when the torch was burning could be heard.

After a while, Murong Danyan said hesitantly: "Hey, this time I can hear it a little more clearly, it seems to be the sound of rushing water..."

When she said this, she also felt that it was difficult to justify herself, so she did not continue.Listening to Murong Danyan's words, Wang Xiaoyu suddenly realized, and completely forgot the unhappiness in his heart, and said loudly: "Sister Murong is right! The sound of splashing is quite similar to the sound of running water."

Murong Danyan shook his head, and said: "We are more than a hundred feet deep underground, and we are in a large tomb, how could there be a river flowing through it? I made a slip of the tongue just now, so don't worry about it, little sister Xiaoyu."

Wang Xiaoyu was dissatisfied, and said: "Sister Murong, you told me the story of Jingxin Temple. At that time, you and Li Daxia and others encountered a strange snake in the belly of the mountain and almost died. Later, you found that there was a big river in the belly of the mountain. Only then did I manage to lure the strange snake into the river, and escaped with my life. This big tomb is at the foot of Old Man Mountain, and there might be a big river underground."

When Wang Xiaoyu said this, his heart suddenly trembled. He thought to himself that Sister Murong said that the blue and white twin snakes in Jingxin Temple were extremely powerful. big snake.If there are poisonous snakes and beasts hiding here, it will be even more difficult for us to escape.

Although Wang Xiaoyu is not very old, he grew up in Wangjiazhuang since he was a child, and no one would dare to provoke him on weekdays, so he has developed a temperament that is not afraid of anything.But as the saying goes, the wicked will be punished by the wicked. Although Wang Xiaoyu is arrogant, he is most afraid of evil spirits and poisonous snakes.But after entering the big cave, strange things happened constantly, and there were vaguely evil spirits at work, which scared Wang Xiaoyu out of his wits.At this time, thinking that the poisonous snake might be nearby, Wang Xiaoyu raised his heart to the point of his throat, and his body was already trembling.

Murong Danyan turned his back to Wang Xiaoyu, so he didn't know that she was scared out of her wits.Li Qiufeng said in a deep voice: "Although Li doesn't know much about the mausoleums of emperors and generals, but when he was in the palace, he heard the guards and eunuchs chatting and said that when building a mausoleum for the emperor, sand, stones and water flow underground are the most taboo. If after the excavation, rocks and underground rivers are encountered, another auspicious soil must be found to rebuild the mausoleum. Those who searched for the emperor's tomb are often accused of this. If this tomb is really the mausoleum of the emperor of the Liao Kingdom, There should be no underground rivers. However, when Li heard the sound, it was indeed very similar to the sound of running water, and he was a little uncertain."

Qi Jiu heard Li Qiufeng talking to Murong Danyan and Wang Xiaoyu, and only then did he know why the three of them stopped.He listened intently, and heard a faint "squeak" sound coming from the front.So after Li Qiufeng finished speaking, Qi Jiu interjected, "Brother Li, I also heard the sound of running water coming from the front."

Hearing Qi Jiu also say that the sound was similar to the sound of running water, Li Qiufeng thought to himself, since the four of us all thought there was water flowing in front of us, maybe there really is an underground river in this mausoleum.In the Jingxin Temple that day, we encountered an underground river, so we could avoid the pursuit of the white snake and escape from the Jingxin Temple by the force of the water.If there really is an underground river here, it might help us escape.

Thinking of this, he felt a little pleasantly surprised, and said in his mouth: "If there is really an underground river, we may be able to escape through the waterway."

When he said this, he paused for a while, and then said: "I wonder if the three are proficient in water?"

Li Qiufeng finished speaking, only to hear Wang Xiaoyu laugh and say: "Haha, although my martial arts are common, but I have played in the sea since I was a child, and my water skills are very good. Don't worry about me, Daxia Li."

Li Qiufeng nodded, and said: "This is the best." He knew that Murong Dan Inkstone's water quality is not weak, so he didn't need to ask, so he said to Li Qiufeng: "Brother Qi, I don't know how your water quality is?"

Qi Jiu said loudly: "I grew up in Dengzhou Wei since I was a child. Although I am not a navy, I often play in the sea on weekdays, and my water skills are not bad."

Only then did Li Qiufeng feel relieved, and told the story of how he escaped from the sky in the belly of Hutouyan mountain by taking advantage of the water that day.Although Wang Xiaoyu had heard Murong Danyan tell her the story of the battle against the green and white twin snakes in Jingxin Temple, but the process of escaping from Jingxin Temple was only mentioned briefly and did not go into detail.At this time, listening to Li Qiufeng's recounting of the past, Wang Xiaoyu was surprised and delighted, and said in a trembling voice: "Hero Li, if we think of a way to block the water flow, we can break through the top of the tomb and escape from this ghost tomb." go out?"

Li Qiufeng shook his head, and said: "Whether you can escape from the waterway or not depends on the terrain here. However, although the water flow is underground, it probably has a source. Even if we can't escape from the top of the mountain like we did in Jingxin Temple, we can You can walk in the direction of the current and you might be able to find a way out."
