The mountain wall was more rugged than Lan had imagined, with sharp protrusions protruding from many of the walls. Fortunately, Lan had made preparations beforehand and wrapped his hands in thick animal skins to minimize cuts. Lan checked the knot connecting him and Shanoa from time to time, while Shanoa tried hard to keep hugging Lan's waist to reduce Lan's physical loss.
"Xia Nuoya, hold on a little longer, we are almost halfway up the mountain." Lan could vaguely see the outline of the top of the mountain wall. £® £® com
"There's nothing wrong with me, but it's due to Lan's physical strength. The wound was just right, plus I'm an extra burden. It will be very difficult for you. Your back is almost soaked." Xia Nuoya felt that she The clothes attached to the chest were soaked with Lan's sweat, and their clothes were stuck together.
"Don't worry, I still have some strength left. Just don't let go." Lan also felt that his movements were a little slower than before, and his climbing speed could not keep up with before. My arms also felt a little sore.
"Well, I understand. If we haven't climbed out of this valley before your strength is exhausted, you and I will fall to pieces, and then we will really be unable to separate forever. Wouldn't it be great to die for love again? Is it interesting?" Xia Nuoya was not nervous at all, her hands tightly wrapped around Lan's waist.
"Where is the fun? What else is there to die for love again?" Lan just answered briefly, fearing that too many words would affect his breathing, so he tried his best to grab another rock and continue climbing up.
"Then my life will be left to you." Xia Nuoya looked back at the valley, which was bottomless.
The bandits in the valley were leaderless and were forced back to the mountain by Du Yang's army. I was overwhelmed all day long. Fortunately, there was some food left over from the last looting in Wujiao Village. They also lived peacefully on the mountain without causing any trouble.
"It's really unlucky. Last time I heard them say that a peerless beauty appeared in the village, but she was ruined by the three brothers. Now even their eldest brother is missing. She must be enjoying herself all day long." A bandit carried it A simple knife, followed by another bandit companion.
"Yes, the boss is gone now. The three brothers are here to call themselves kings. I don't know where our group of powerless people will go in the future, or we should disperse." Another bandit said.
"Where can we go? You also saw that the only way out of the mountain is blocked by a group of imperial troops. Is it possible that we should go down and commit suicide?" The bandit split a pile of weeds in front of him with a simple knife.
The other bandit didn¡¯t reply. He looked back. The previous companion sat slumped on the ground, with his mouth open as if he hadn't eaten for a long time, and pointed his finger in the direction of the valley. He followed his companion's gaze and rubbed his eyes carefully. Suddenly the knife fell to the ground and his pants became wet.
"GhostGhostGhost" The bandit finally spoke. He saw the man who fell into the valley with his boss not long ago, and at this moment, a thin woman with long flowing hair was crawling behind the man. It was as if he was possessed by a ghost.
"Could it becould it be that the female ghost down in the valley borrowed the man's body to come back to seek revenge on us? It must be that the man's body was taken over by the female ghost and came to claim our lives." A bandit finally recovered. When he regained consciousness, he picked up his companions and ran away without caring about the simple knife that fell on the ground.
"Xia Nuoya, don't sleep. Let go, we're climbing up." Lan finally climbed up the valley before running out of energy. Unexpectedly, Xia Nuoya on his back actually fell asleep. He patted her, trying to wake up Shanoa.
"It's annoying, Lan. You don't have to show your true nature as soon as you go up the mountain. Where are you touching?" Xia Nuoya finally woke up. She didn't expect that when she opened her eyes, she would already be in the valley.
Only then did Lan notice something was wrong with his left hand. He saw Xia Nuoya waking up. He hurriedly untied the rope. Lying on the ground panting. "It's great to be able to breathe the mountain air. I haven't seen such a bright sun for a long time."
"Yeah, it's great." Xia Nuoya also lay on the soft grass, breathing the fresh air that she hadn't seen for a long time, stretching her body, letting the sun shine on every inch of her skin as much as possible, feeling the warmth that had not been touched for three years. of warmth.
"You must not fall asleep here, don't forget that this is the bandit's range of activities!" Xia Nuoya seemed to realize something, but found that Lan had already climbed up, holding a simple knife in his hand.
"Ahhhh! It turns out you are the bandit leader, and I was actually deceived by you in the valley for so long. But it's okay, now I have become Mrs. Yazhai?" Xia Nuoya looked at Lan holding the Pu Dao looked like a mountain bandit.
"Tsk, I am nothingWhat a bandit, I just picked up this knife on the side. Last time I was forced down the valley by those bandits, this time I had to force them all to jump down one by one. "Lan recalled the tragic situation of being chased a while ago, and couldn't help but feel a trace of anger in her heart.
"Forget it, you just rely on this broken knife and your current physical strength? I don't want to be widowed just after seeing the sun. Besides, I don't know the way down the mountain. Oh~~ What a heartless man. "Xia Nuoya said coquettishly, looking at Lan like a resentful woman. Lan couldn't help but shudder.
But what Xia Nuoya said is right. Even if he has plenty of physical strength, he cannot defeat all the bandits with this simple sword. Instead of blindly settling the score with the bandits, perhaps it would be better to take Xia Nuoya down the mountain first, and maybe meet Yu Ji and others.
Lan put the Pu knife beside him, sat on the haystack, and gave up his previous impulsive thoughts.
"However, I do have a way to get us out of the predicament, and it will make things easier." Xia Nuoya showed an evil smile, which made Lan feel like he was seeing an evil old witch, and he couldn't help but swallow a gulp. saliva.
Xia Nuoya took out a bottle of potion brought from the valley from her back, and the purple powder in the potion was the paralyzing mushroom essence. But it¡¯s such a small bottle. No matter how powerful the medicine is, it won't be able to numb all the bandits. Lan was very confused and expressed doubts about Shanoa's plan.
"I know what you are thinking. Indeed, let alone defeating the bandits with this bottle of stuff, I am afraid that if the weight is spread to those bandits, it will make them sad for a while at most. However, I still have a bottle of stuff that can achieve our goal." Shanoa took out a bottle from behind and threw it to Lan.
Lan carefully opened it and saw that it was an empty bottle. He became more and more confused as to what Shanoa's plan was. I saw Xia Nuoya picking some fresh green grass from the nearby haystack. He put it in his mouth, chewed it carefully, and then motioned for Lan to walk over.
Just as Lan walked in front of Xia Nuoya, Xia Nuoya stood up suddenly, and her delicate mouth almost touched Lan's face. However, it only took a short second for her to pick up the empty bottle in Lan's hand. He mixed the grass residue in his mouth with his own saliva and slowly spit it into the bottle.
"What is this? Isn't that just ordinary grass? Could it be that the grass turns into poison after being chewed?" Even though Lan doesn't know about herbal medicine, it looks like ordinary grass. Could it be that mixed with Xia Nuoya's saliva, it will turn into poison? A poison that kills people instantly?
"Sigh, it tastes really bad. My tongue is numb. Don't worry, this is just ordinary grass. I'm just a doctor. How can I prepare murderous poison? Or if you want to taste it yourself, I can feed it to you. A little bit." Shanoa pointed at her mouth, and a little green liquid was flowing out from one side of her lips.
"No need, just tell me your plan." Lan gave up the pursuit and sat next to Xia Nuoya.
