Mountain and Sea Treasures

Chapter 554 The Deadly Noose

Yun Qi coughed twice, and then said softly after a long while: "Senior, let him get over what happened before! The Yun family is indeed empty, go in quickly, they are still waiting for us to save them."

These words completely made the gopher lose the mind to explore. He calmed down and used a searchlight to shine into the dark hole. The inside looked as if it had been swept by a storm, and the stone walls on both sides were full of scratches. .

But this passage is only less than one meter, and the end goes straight down.

Also, the side hall is next to the main hall, if it wasn't for this downward arrangement, it would really be unreasonable.

"Let's go!" I waved my hand.

Yun Qi insisted on taking the lead, so I pulled him behind. If he was in danger, it would be too late for him to escape, so I suggested that I take the lead and he follow me, so that we can take care of each other, and he can also be the first. Noticed something was wrong ahead.

Yun Qi thought for a while and agreed to my proposal.

I took a deep breath and got into the tunnel first, Yun Qi followed me closely, still shaking a bit.Kumbu followed him and would help him from time to time. Before the gopher came in, I was already at the entrance of the sharply falling hole.

"Next?" I glanced back, Yun Qi's eyes were deep, and he suddenly asked something irrelevant.

"Chang'an, you are the only one left in the Liu family, why do you persist?"

I didn't react for a while, but after I did, I burst out laughing, I didn't insist on myself, it was obvious that I was forced to this level step by step.I think if I hadn't touched that Western Zhou tomb in a desperate manner, my father would have brought the Liu family's secrets into the coffin even if he died, and I would not have anything to do now.

Yun Qi was a little surprised when he heard that, probably because he didn't expect my life experience to be so bad.

Although I found the home of 701 after the Eternal Night Ancient Kingdom, the reason why I can come here is because of my debt.

The gopher urged outside: "Are you still going?"

I replied loudly and left, and then said softly: "Yun Qi, I don't know what happened to the Yun family, but what you want to do, or what you want to do, don't depend on other people's opinions! If I hadn't opened the That Western Zhou tomb, now I may be just an ordinary person, marrying a wife and having children, farming and herding cattle, this is another kind of life.”

Yun Qi nodded and motioned for me to go down.

I unscrewed the flashlight and pointed it down, but I didn't know whether it was because the bottom was too deep or the light couldn't get in, so I couldn't see to the bottom.

For safety's sake, I tied a rope around my waist, and then handed the rope to Kumbu at the back, and then I climbed down cautiously.

cold!
This is the most obvious feeling. As soon as I stretched my legs down, I shivered heavily. My hands were so cold that I could barely hold the rope. If I hadn't given the rope to Kumbu in advance, I might have fallen straight down.

However, it was not as high as expected. I slipped for about three meters and reached the bottom. The bottom was cold, and stepping on it was like stepping on ice with bare feet.

I pulled the rope, then raised the flashlight and shook it upwards to indicate that everything was normal, and then I held up the flashlight to shine on both sides. I was stunned by this photo, and I didn't recover for a long time, until I put a hand on the on my shoulders.

"Who?"

I was startled, and when I turned my head, I saw Yun Qi's pale face. He climbed down with the last bit of strength, and the wound on his right hand was bleeding again. He must have no way to support it, so he put his hand on mine. on the shoulders.

I quickly regained my senses, supported him with both hands and took two steps to the side, and asked him how he was doing?
"It's okay, just rest for a while." Yun Qi shook her head slightly, then raised her head to look forward, her brows were deeply knit together, as if water might drip out at any time.

He murmured: "How could this be?"

Just for a while, Kungfu Kumbu and Gopher also followed. Seeing that the two of us didn't respond at all, they hurriedly asked us what happened?Of course, we don't need to answer, they have already seen the situation ahead, and everyone fell into silence for a while.

Ahead, there was an empty hall filled with all kinds of jade mountains.The jade stone is icy cold, but what makes us silent is that there are several people hanging from the top of the jade mountain——Lao Yan and the four of them, all of them are quite a few!

We dare not go forward because these people are not in the right state, and going up rashly will only cause them trouble.

Each of them has a thin rope hanging around their necks, and the other end of the rope is tied to the road ahead of us. If we walk over, it is easy to cause an imbalance of weight on the side of the rope, and their necks will suffer greatly. persecution.

They turned their backs to us, and the voices I talked to Yun Qi were quite loud, but they didn't respond in the slightest. I was very panicked, but I told myself desperately that they were just in a coma.

Time passed slowly, and the gopher and I looked at each other, but we still couldn't think of a solution.The hanging part of the rope at this end is hollow, and anyone of us who goes up will cause a huge imbalance. When the rope is pulled into the neck, it will be too late to rescue.

"Kunbu, can your Gu worm do anything?" I turned to look at Kunbu.

If he controlled the Gu worm to bite off the rope, would there still be a glimmer of life?
Kunbu shook his head, and stretched out his hand to gesture: "The Jade Mountain is too high. If no one catches them when the rope breaks, they will break their necks if they fall on the jade. Look at their angles. If they fall, they will definitely fall. It's the neck that's going to be badly hurt."

I leaned against the wall in disappointment, staring at Lao Yan.He was hanged the highest, using Gu insects, other people may still survive, but he must die, this is also the main reason for my hesitation.

I looked at the gopher for help, but he also had a sad face, saying that the jade was too slippery, and even he couldn't climb up from the side.

"I'll do it." Yun Qi's voice was still weak, but firm.

I quickly stopped him: "You don't want to die?"

It's good that we want to save people, but we can't achieve our goal by sacrificing him. What's more, he is the only one left in the Yun family. If he is gone, it will be a big loss.

Yun Qi smiled and said, "Then do you have other ways?"

I was dumbfounded, indeed, there is nothing we can do, otherwise there would be no need for him to speak.

I asked him what he could do, and he replied mysteriously: "Just keep your eyes open. No matter what you see, I hope it's limited to this place. After you go out, don't tell others."

"Don't worry!" I agreed without even thinking about it. This was originally his privacy, even if I was curious, there was no reason to publicize it.
