famous concubine

Chapter 136 Death and Peach Blossom (1)
Commander Yan nodded and immediately agreed to her proposal.

After meeting with Imperial Physician Shi, Dongfang Yu and other water-savvy people went along the river to search for the whereabouts of the prince, but after half a day of searching, no matter whether they were in charge of searching upstream or downstream, they all said that there was no result.

What is suspicious is that there is a wide section of riverbed downstream near the river bank in the hinterland of the mountain wall. According to their investigation by people with good water skills, there is a whirlpool of rapids and undercurrents in the riverbed.

Dongfangyu estimated that the undercurrent vortex might be connected to the underground river, and the prince and his party might be sucked into the vortex and carried to other places along with the river water.

Of course, it is also possible that the prince and his party took the initiative to let the whirlpool go away. She remembered that Uncle Tian once mentioned that the prince and the others touched fish and shrimp in the river. Flee to the river.

Maybe under that vortex is the escape route that the prince had prepared long ago.

But this matter is only speculation after all, and no one can tell what is behind the vortex; Commander Yan does not agree with people going to take risks to explore.

Dongfang Yu personally went to the upper reaches, went to the waterfall mentioned by Uncle Tian and took a closer look. It can be said that there is the end of the village, because the waterfall flows straight down from the cliff with a height of [-] Renren, and there are only some farmland and low water in the surrounding area. Slope, the village is surrounded by cliffs that are ten thousand feet high, so the village entrance that Commander Zhang set up a checkpoint to guard is the only exit from the village that can lead to the outside.

After a night's rest, Dongfangyu carefully observed the condition of the mother and daughter, and confirmed that their condition has completely stabilized. They only need to take medicine and slowly recuperate, and everything will change for the better.

She felt relieved, and asked Doctor Shi to take care of the two of them again and again.Then I decided to go to the bottom of the waterfall to find out.

Because of her favor, Shi Yu began to admire her medical skills, so he agreed to her request.Commander Yan had no choice but to stay in the village because he was not familiar with water skills, and repeatedly asked her to send back the news in time if there was any news from the prince.

"Miss Yu, are you good at swimming?" Xia Xue saw that the girl was full of confidence, but she couldn't help but feel a little worried. The place under the waterfall is no different from ordinary places. If it wasn't for the excellent water skills, she wouldn't be able to swim there.

Danyu girl...Xia Xue stared at the confident girl again.

For a young lady who was raised in a deep boudoir, it is already surprising that she knows water skills. If she wants to practice excellent water skills, it will not happen overnight.

Can the language girl really do it?
Dongfang Yu blinked at her, smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, I won't make fun of my life."

After finishing speaking, she checked her own safety measures again, and after confirming that there was no problem, the blue clothes cast a dazzling shadow in the air like a swaying elf, and the girl jumped into the river not far from the waterfall.

The rest of the soldiers with excellent water skills followed her and jumped into the water one after another. They carefully circumvented the center point where the waterfall rushed straight down, avoiding the impulsive force of the waterfall, and slowly swam from the edge to the back of the waterfall.

After swimming to the back, Dongfang Yu's eyes suddenly brightened, because when she looked up, she saw a dark cave behind the waterfall.

Compared with her excitement, other people seemed to be more cautious. Who knew if there was any potential danger hidden in the cave.

With a wave of his little hand, Dongfang Yu climbed up first, with twinkling eyes, and then walked in the front again.

I don't know how long they walked in the cave, but it seemed like the darkness would never end. Some soldiers finally couldn't help it, looked at the girl in front suspiciously, and asked, "Ms. Dongfang, this cave is so dark." , who knows where this is the end, or this is just a cave with no exit."

Dongfangyu slowed down his pace slightly, and said crisply: "We have now reached the middle of the mountain, but does anyone feel uncomfortable or suffocating? No, it's right."

The girl lit the fire, squinted her eyes in a posture of intoxication and enjoyment, and after a while, her eyes sparkled brightly, and smiled slightly: "Don't you feel that there is a breeze blowing? There must be an exit from this cave. Besides, look The height and width of this cave, this is not a natural cave at all, but man-made, believe me, this cave must have an exit, and there will be no danger."

As if deliberately contradicting the oriental language, just after she finished speaking, her voice hit the mountain wall, and it was still circling endlessly in the cave.

However, just after they turned a corner, they were struggling to climb a short short slope. When they raised their heads, they suddenly bumped into a pair of half-closed eyes in the darkness ahead, staring lazily at them with faint light spots.

Dongfang Yu was the first to notice a pair of shining eyes in front of her. She leaned closer and took a closer look. It was a five or six meter long boa constrictor lying lazily in the cave they had to pass through. On the way, as soon as she climbed up the short slope, she directly ran into those eyes without human emotion, which made her turn pale in fright.

But she desperately held back the scream that rushed to her mouth, and tried to take a few deep breaths to calm the fear in her heart.

She couldn't let the people behind her see her panic, she stared at the dark cave out of the corner of her eyes, and she secretly rejoiced.Fortunately, those people are behind her, as long as she doesn't look back, no one will notice how pale her face is now.

Seeing that she was still in a half-bent posture, Xia Xue couldn't help but asked in confusion, "Miss Yu, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Dongfang Yu calmed down his panting breath, tried to squeeze out a smile, and said, "It's just a small obstacle on the road ahead. Well, a boa constrictor regards this as its safe haven."

"Boa constrictor?" Xia Xue just frowned slightly, and there was no expression of panic on her face. From the perspective of Oriental language, Xia Xue didn't even have a trace of fear. She just raised her eyebrows in confusion, and said: "I'll go and have a look."

Dongfangyu looked at Xia Xue who jumped over with a "whoosh", widened her bright and clear eyes, opened her mouth, and moved her lips for a long time without uttering a word.

Xia Xue is not afraid of snakes?She thought that women all over the world were like her. When they saw this cold-blooded animal, their feet would go limp and their legs would tremble.

"Miss Yu, we can pass by, as long as we don't touch it, it won't attack us." Xia Xuefeng came back like a swipe.

"Walk, walk past it?" Dongfang Yu squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying, and said with wide eyes, "What if, what if... accidentally stepped on its tail, wouldn't it be a dead end? .”

The soldiers behind also climbed up one after another, and someone interrupted: "Miss Dongfang, how about I carry you there?"

Dongfangyu turned his head to look at the tall and thick soldier, raised his eyebrows, and said with a dry smile, "Hey, thank you for your kindness, but it's not necessary." If the boa constrictor was stepped on by him and went crazy, wouldn't she die sooner? .
