A knife in love

Chapter 331

Murong Danyan thought to himself: "The ancestors of your two families killed so many people, and the emperor sent him to live in this desolate place, but it is not wronged."

Li Qiufeng thought in his heart: "The ancestors of the Zhu family were very worried about this matter, but I see that the ancestors of the Sha family looked like this, and they were probably playing tricks. Although this Hutouyan is desolate, it is far away from the capital, which is a dragon pool and a tiger's lair. For the ancestors of the Sha family, this is the best result. None of these people are easy to get along with after a long history of official career. It's just that Brother Zhu seems to have no plans. He is not in the army, so he can be regarded as a Good thing."

The three of them walked all the way, when their feet suddenly turned flat, and besides the sound of the wind, there was a faint sound of running water.At first Li Qiufeng thought he heard it wrong, and heard the sound of the wind as the sound of running water, but the further he moved forward, the louder the sound of the water became, and finally it became deafening.

Li Qiufeng could still hold his breath, how could Murong Danyan hold back?He said loudly: "Brother Zhu, why is there such a loud sound of water in this cave?"

Zhu Sanjia seemed to have expected her to ask this question, and said with a smile: "Little brother... little girl...you don't know, there is an underground river in the middle of the mountain, the water is fast, that's why there is such a loud noise! "

Surprised, Murong Danyan said in a trembling voice, "River? How can there be a river in the belly of the mountain?"

Zhu Sanjia is a rude man. To him, there is a river in the middle of the mountain. It is like the sun rising from the east every day, and he has to eat three meals a day. He has never thought about why the river appears in the middle of the mountain.When Murong Danyan asked such a question, he was speechless and speechless.

Li Qiufeng said from the side: "Miss Murong doesn't know that the water on the ground is originally gushing from the ground. Since there is water in the ground, it is not strange that there is water in the mountain higher than the ground. It's just that there are many flat lands in the south of the Yangtze River, and you rarely see high mountains and dangerous peaks. Presumably, you rarely see rivers in the middle of the mountains. If Miss Murong goes to the middle of Shu, there are many caves in the mountains, and there are many rivers in the caves, and the water is fast. amazing."

Murong Danyan smiled and said: "It's time for this matter, brother Li, can you take me to the middle of Sichuan?"

Li Qiufeng's heart trembled, and he thought to himself: "Oops, I mentioned this matter casually on a whim, but she took it seriously. If I agree, but I can't do it in the future, she must hate me. If I don't agree, I will inevitably let you She is embarrassed, what should I do?"

While he was hesitating, he heard Zhu Sanjia say loudly: "Young Master Li, Miss Murong, there is a dangerous road in front of you, hanging above the stone wall, and the rapids are under your feet. This road is a road carved out of the stone wall. The stone steps, after the water vapor rises, will soak the stone steps very slippery, you two must be careful on your steps. If you stumble and fall, it will be impossible to save."

Murong Danyan said: "Why didn't we see this torrent when we came down from the old Shajiabao house?"

Li Qiufeng said: "I think Miss Murong came down from another secret road with Madam Sha, so she didn't go through this road. But fortunately, that road didn't pass here. Miss Murong, you and Madam Sha, Mr. Hou, Sha Zhongyu has martial arts in her body, so naturally she doesn't worry about her feet. Those servants don't know martial arts, if this stone step is really what Brother Zhu said, taking them through here may be more difficult than climbing to the sky."

While speaking, he came to a very small stone room, and there was another hole at the end of the stone room.The wind in this stone room was much stronger than other places. As soon as the three of them entered the stone room, the flames on the torches in their hands whistled, and they were blown backward by the wind.Zhu San's family turned their heads and said to Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan: "Out of the cave in front, there are stone steps suspended in the air, you two must be careful where you step!"

Li Qiufeng trembled a little when he heard Zhu Sanjia's voice, knowing that this road must be unusual, he couldn't help but look back at Murong Danyan.Murong Danyan knew that he was afraid that he would make things worse, so he cared about him very much, he was delighted, smiled at Li Qiufeng, and nodded slightly.

Zhu Sanjia held the torch and walked in the front. When he reached the entrance of the cave, the wind became stronger and blew the flame on the torch in his hand almost to be extinguished at any time.Zhu Sanjia paused for a moment, then walked out of the cave.

Li Qiufeng followed closely behind him, and was so shocked that he stepped out of the cave.Under the light of the torch, the left side is a steep mountain wall like a knife and an axe. The rock wall is blue-gray and extends upwards.It's just that the light of the torch is limited, you can only see a height two or three feet away, and then there is darkness.Under the feet is a chi-wide stone step carved out of the rock wall, which fluctuates up and down according to the topography of the rock wall, making it look extremely steep.Under the feet, there is water vapor, rising continuously, accompanied by the deafening sound of huge running water.It's just covered by water vapor, so I don't know how far the underground river is from the stone steps.Looking to the opposite side, you can faintly see the gray rock wall, but it's far away and you can't see it clearly.

Li Qiufeng also crossed a river under the imperial mausoleum.It's just that at that time, he was caught in the soul-shifting formation of Liu Sheng Zongyan's Onmyoji, so he didn't know whether the river was real or not.Judging from the sound, the underground river under his feet was more powerful than the river under the imperial mausoleum.

Li Qiufeng turned his head and said to Murong Danyan: "Ms. Murong, this place is very dangerous. The stone steps are very slippery. When walking, it is better to walk slowly than to go fast. Only after the foot is firmly stepped, can you take another step."

Murong Danyan smiled and said: "Alright, alright, I understand, don't worry."

At this time, Zhu Sanjia had already stepped on the stone steps.He walked this way, although there were many forks in the road, and the ground was uneven in some places, but he never slowed down by half a minute.At this time, when stepping on the stone steps, he was extremely careful.Just like what Li Qiufeng said to Murong Danyan, he would only take the next step after stepping on his feet very securely.

Li Qiufeng raised his right foot and slowly stepped on the first stone step.As soon as the soles of his feet touched the stone steps, he immediately knew that Zhu Sanjia was not exaggerating, the stone steps were not only narrow, but also extremely slippery.Even if he had been prepared for a long time, his body trembled slightly at this moment, he took a deep breath quickly, and then let it out slowly. In this way, his mind was clear, and then he stepped hard and walked forward slowly.It's just that he was worried that Murong Danyan would be in danger, so after walking a few steps, he stopped and turned to look at Murong Danyan.But he saw Murong Danyan holding the torch in his right hand, with a solemn expression, slowly walking up the stone steps, walking forward step by step.

Li Qiufeng saw that Murong Danyan was cautious and not as lively and jumping as usual, so he felt relieved and walked forward slowly with Zhu Sanjia.I could only hear the roar of the river under my feet, and the sound of breaking water waves colliding with the stone wall rumbled in the cave, stirring everywhere.The water vapor is almost level with the stone steps under your feet. Walking on these stone steps is like flying through clouds and fog. At the beginning, you walk carefully, and you don't feel anything wrong yet.After walking five or six zhang, the sound of rumbling water filled my ears, and beyond the blue-gray stone wall, there was turbulent water mist.After a long time, all three of them felt dizzy, so they had to raise their heads high, trying not to look at the mist under their feet.

Although this stone step is extremely steep, it is not very long.After walking for more than [-] zhang, they saw a hole appeared on the stone wall more than ten steps ahead.Li Qiufeng was overjoyed and thought to himself: "It's finally come to an end! If we keep going like this, I'm afraid Miss Murong might make a mistake, and it will be very bad!"

When Murong Danyan saw the entrance of the cave, he was naturally happy, but there was also a trace of melancholy: "This road is extremely steep, and I am very happy to walk down it carefully with Brother Li. It's just that I didn't expect it to end so soon. Ugh."

She was so distracted that she didn't pay attention to her feet, her right foot was stepping on a gap at the edge of the stone steps, when she slipped, her body fell into the mist below the stone steps.

This happened suddenly, Murong Danyan screamed, and grabbed the stone wall with his left hand.It's just that the stone wall is extremely smooth, and there is nothing to grasp.Although her left hand was strong, it only rubbed against the rock wall, instead of stopping her fall, two nails were broken, and five fingers were scratched by the rock, bleeding profusely.

Li Qiufeng heard Murong Danyan's scream behind him, and immediately turned around, only to see that half of Murong Danyan's body had slipped into the water mist, and his left hand was scratching at the stone wall, but he couldn't stop the falling trend at all.Li Qiufeng leaped over with one stride, threw the torch out with his right hand first, leaned out of the stone steps, and grabbed Murong Danyan's left wrist with his right hand.

If he is on flat ground, Li Qiufeng has deep internal energy, he can lift Murong Danyan's body with just a tug.It's just that he was on the stone steps at this time, and his feet were extremely wet and slippery.When his right hand pulled upwards vigorously, his feet also slipped, not only did he fail to lift Murong Danyan's body, but he was also pulled by the falling force of Murong Danyan, and fell straight out of the stone steps.

Murong Dan's inkstone stumbled and slipped at the beginning, he was really frightened out of his wits.After waiting until his left hand rubbed against the stone wall, his fingers were bleeding profusely, and his heart became even more desperate.She was so straight that half of her body fell into the mist, and when she saw Li Qiufeng turning her head in amazement, she smiled sadly and thought to herself: "Brother Li, see you in the next life!"

It's just that Murong Danyan never expected that Li Qiufeng's figure flashed, and he snatched her up. He stretched out his right hand and grabbed her left wrist.Murong Danyan knew the power of Li Qiufeng, after his left wrist was held by him, he was overjoyed and was about to speak.Unexpectedly, Li Qiufeng couldn't stand on his feet, was pulled by his body, and fell down the cliff with him.

When Murong Danyan saw that Li Qiufeng fell down from the stone steps because of his burden, he was shocked and shouted: "Brother Li, let go!"

When Li Qiufeng fell down, more than a dozen ideas flashed through his mind. He was engrossed in thinking about how to get out, and he didn't even care about what Murong Danyan was saying.It's just that in the blink of an eye, although more than a dozen ideas popped up in his head, none of them could be used.At this moment, he could only feel the wind whistling in his ears, and his body had already fallen into the mist under his feet along with Murong Dan's inkstone.
