Chapter 488 This Is So Stupid (Part [-])
The open space they were in was no longer a stone indoor hall, but more like a square in a large cave on the mountain. The stone pillars that the old man saw were all along the road.

Xia Zhao learns to make a torch, takes Zhili away to find the source of the female voice, and separates from the old man.

This is the west side of the square. There are three water bridges on the right. The woman’s voice came from another part of the water bridge across the cliff. The road can go in.

Fortunately, the entrance is not difficult to find, the corridor is brightly lit, and after a few turns, you can see the girl in front of you.

When Aunt Rou saw the two of them alone, especially the young boy's size, she was stunned for a moment, but she quickly remembered that the young man was Ah Li's younger brother, so she hurriedly wiped away her tears and ran forward.

Trying to summarize what happened in the simplest words, Xia Zhaoxue frowned after hearing this, and said, "What are you waiting for, let's go."

He walked forward, his arms tightened, and he was pulled by Zhili.

"How do you prove it?" Zhili looked at Rougu and said.

"I..." Aunt Rou was tongue-tied, it was the first time in her life that she encountered such a problem.

"It's true," Xia Zhaoxue said, "Let's go, it's important to save people."

Zhili hurriedly followed: "How do you know she's real? Just because she's wet? There are ghosts and monsters in this place. You're almost ten years older than me. Why don't you pay more attention to me? Hey, wait for me !"

The water level in the pool rose very slowly, and the men who stayed there looked at the cold water in despair.They took a few lamps and placed them on the edge of the cliff. Under the firelight, except for the movement of the water dragon crashing into the water, the water surface was almost eerily quiet, and there was no one there.

A long time passed behind her before there was any movement. Aunt Rou finally came back, followed by two people, one big and one small.

Zhili was so tired that he collapsed on the ground, stretching out his hand to cover the wound on his shoulder, wanting to curse in pain.

"My lord!" Aunt Rou fell down on the edge of the cliff, staring at the gradually rising water level with wide eyes, "Where are the people, where are the people below!"

"There is no one...there is no one..." said one of his subordinates.

"Maybe he's dead," Zhili said softly, "When a person dies, he doesn't float up so quickly, we have to wait."

"Don't talk nonsense!" Another subordinate scolded, not knowing who this young boy was, but he didn't have the extra energy to worry about how he got to this barren mountain.

Xia Zhaoxue walked to the edge of the cliff. The water outlet on the cliff was very large, and the water flow was fast. However, the entire pool was spacious and the water level rose very slowly.

He raised his head and looked in the direction where the water was coming from. It seemed that there was a faint wind blowing his hair on the sideburns.

He looked away, looked at Aunt Rou who was kneeling on the ground ten steps away, and said, "It's actually not that high, maybe we can build a personal bridge."

Aunt Rou was stunned, raised her eyes to look at him, choked and said, "Human bridge? Is it a solitaire, pull it down?"

"Yes," Xia Zhaoxue said, "You arrange it as soon as possible, and include me."

The addition of such a tall adult man seems to be able to build a personal bridge. Aunt Rou immediately looked at the subordinates behind her and said, "No need to make arrangements, let me go down. I am the lightest and easier to pull. Let's go according to our size and stay behind." The two tallest ones are pulling people up, I'll go down first!"

After finishing speaking, she stepped forward and jumped directly into the cold pool.

The water in the pool is already high, so she won't hit the bottom immediately when she goes down, the water splashes, and the chill rises up.

Zhili ran to Xia Zhaoxue's side clutching the wound on his shoulder, looked at Rou Gu who was diving into the water, and said in a daze, "She is too reckless."

"Ah."

"I clearly know the result," Zhili said in a low voice, "There is no one on the surface of the water, that is, they are all at the bottom, not to mention people who have been underwater for so long, and their breathing has stopped long ago. It is such cold water. A single stick of incense can freeze a person to death."

"If she has an obsession in her heart, she will be fulfilled." Xia Zhaoxue said.

"Fulfillment?" Zhili raised his eyes and looked at the tall man beside him, "Senior sister and second brother, you don't know her."

While talking, Aunt Rou poked her head out, took a breath on the surface of the water, and sank again.

Xia Zhaoxue looked at the dark water surface where circles and halos spread out, and said, "It's half acquainted."

"Half acquaintance?"

Because Yan Qinglin mentioned Shen Wen to him more than once, at least five times in front of him, he wanted to invite this disciple of Qingzhou Sage to come to Beijing and prescribe prescriptions for him to recuperate his body.

Of course, Xia Zhaoxue should only listen to these words.

When Yan Qinglin said these words, her expression was always calm and indifferent, as if she really wanted to do it for you, but after a long time of contact, Xia Zhaoxue understood that it was just a favor she deliberately wanted to sell.

She won't go to find Shen Fan, and she doesn't dare to go to find him. Who would dare to let outsiders know about a court felon whose head had already been beheaded.

And Shen Yan is just one of the names in her many "favors".

As for Aunt Rou, it was a follower that Yan Qinglin had mentioned inadvertently in front of him when she told others that she was familiar with it.

Aunt Rou poked her head out of the water again, took a deep breath, and plunged into the water again.

"Strange," Zhi Li looked at her and said, "Senior Sister and Second Brother, no matter how deep the water is, I can vaguely see her in the water."

When Xia Zhaoxue was mentioned by him, he frowned slightly, looked at the water and said, "Yes, Shen Fan and the others should be here."

"She, it seems that no one has been found?"

When Aunt Rou poked her head out again, Xia Zhaoxue said loudly, "Gu Gu!"

Aunt Rou was shivering from the cold, raised her head and said, "I found three corpses..."

"It really is a corpse." Zhi Li said very lightly.

"I'll look for it again, I'll continue to look for it!" Rou Gu said, and dived back into the water.

"Shen Fan should not be among the three corpses," Zhili said in a low voice, "otherwise she would have stopped a long time ago, but she hasn't given up yet."

Rou Gu's ears were filled with the muffled sound of water, and the icy cold soaked her limbs and bones, stinging like sharp knives.

She found another corpse, but she couldn't see it underwater, so she could only feel for it with her numb hands.

Not Shen Wen.

She returned to the surface of the water and let out the breath held in her chest.

It's fine if it's not him, every time she finds a new corpse, she's too scared to be herself, lest it's him.

"You might as well come up first," Zhi Li said to her, "I'm afraid you're going to freeze to death."

"I'll look for it again." Rou Gu said with chattering teeth, and dived back into the water.

"She's going crazy," Zhili looked at Xia Zhaoxue, "This is so stupid, isn't it?"

"Is your wound not hurting?" Xia Zhaoxue said lightly, looking at the water.

Zhili finally forgot the pain of not caring, because Xia Zhao learned this sentence, it seemed to start to hurt suddenly again.

He raised his hand to cover his shoulder, bared his teeth and said, "Senior Sister and Second Brother, you are too unkind!"

Xia Zhaoxue looked at those subordinates and said, "Build a 'bridge', she won't be able to hold on anymore."
