Chapter 392: The rope is with the person
It rained again a few days ago, and the water channel of Huangniu River seems to be wider. Fortunately, Sui Dynasty made great efforts in river management, and the embankments of several large rivers are very stable. The location of Huangyang Road is already very remote, thousands of miles away from the hinterland of the Central Plains. However, during the Sui Dynasty, everyone from the imperial court to the local government was quite pragmatic, so even in the border areas where the population density was much sparser than that of Gyeonggi Road, there were few cases where officials neglected their duties. thing.
The source of the Huangniu River is at the western end of Huangyang Road, so although the river seems to be very wide for hundreds of miles, the water flow is not gentle. Local fishermen do not dare to cross at will when the water is high. Because the river is too deep, there are undercurrents under the seemingly calm water. Once the boat is washed away by the undercurrent, it will immediately lose its direction.
At night, the sound of the rushing river was as loud as thousands of troops galloping past. Especially when I stick to the river embankment, it feels like the earth is shaking.
Fang Jie climbed on the river embankment and looked across. He could vaguely see a string of torches fluttering on the other side. It looked like a will-o'-the-wisp. They were the rebel soldiers on duty at night patrolling back and forth. It has to be said that just the name Luo Yao put tremendous pressure on the rebels, so the density of patrols was twice as high as before.
Fang Jie looked at the river at night, and suddenly thought of the frail old man who left the martial arts academy in Chang'an City and guarded the library alone. He already knew how bizarre and terrifying the old man's identity was, and things like crossing the river with a willow tree were indeed associated with the old pervert's talent.
Fang Jie is not thousands of stars, and the distance is nine heavens.
"How to get there?"
The river is almost three hundred meters wide at its narrowest point, and the current is so fast that it is difficult to swim across it. Even if you are a peerless master, if you have no point of focus in the water and can't control it at all, you are still worse than an ordinary fisherman.
¡°Where are the prepared ropes?¡±
Fang explained the question.
Feiyupao, who followed behind, immediately took out the rope, which was carried in several coils by several people.
"Catch up"
Fang Jie gave an order.
Feiyupao immediately found the ends of several coils of rope and connected them together, tying a tight knot. Fang Jie tied one end of the rope around his waist and pulled it to make sure it was stable. He looked at the river and took a deep breath, then turned around and said to Big Dog and the others: "The river is too wide, the rope is too long, and the pulling force of floating on the water is very strong. If I am washed away by the river, pull me up immediately by the rope." return."
"How do you plan to get there?"
Shen Qingshan asked with a frown.
"walk over"
Fang Jie said lightly, and then looked at a stone as big as a millstone not far away: "Don't worry about me. The only good thing Fang Henshui did before he died was to tell him the formula of the Turtle Breathing Technique." It took me a long time to master the line between pretending to be dead and staying awake. , Use the Turtle Breathing Technique to close my breath but make sure I don¡¯t sink into suspended animation.¡±
"No, it's too dangerous!"
Mu Xiaoyao grabbed his hand and said eagerly: "The river is so wide and the water flow is too fast. What if something goes wrong!"
"fine"
Fang Jie smiled at her: "Although the Turtle Breathing Technique is a technique that allows people to enter suspended animation, as long as you find that limit, you can hold your breath while maintaining a little sanity. I can't be like normal, But at least one thing can be donemove forward.¡±
He picked up the big stone and glanced back: "Remember, keep an eye on the rope at all times. If the rope floats out in the direction of the current, it means that I was swept away by the water. Don't be too nervous, there will definitely be a big gap on the rope. A big arc, as long as it doesn¡¯t go straight in the direction of the water flow, it means I¡¯m fine.¡±
"And I'm not stupid. Once I'm sure it's difficult to do, I'll come back."
He smiled: "Don't forget to bring me some clean clothes."
After saying this, he walked slowly into the water holding the big stone. The people on the shore were stunned, especially those in flying fish robes. They had never seen anyone crossing the river like this. Master Xiaofang wants to hold the stone and sink it at the bottom of the river all the way to the other side. This is absolutely impossible for normal people to realize. As long as a normal person would call him an idiot for coming up with such a solution!
But Fang Jie is like an idiot trying to prove himself.
People watched helplessly as his body entered the water little by little, and everyone held their breath. More than a dozen flying fish robes put the rope in their hands, but did not dare to hold it tightly, letting the rope move forward naturally according to the strength of the solution. They watched the water reach Fang Jie's waist, shoulders, and finally the whole person disappeared.Next, there is a long wait.
Everyone¡¯s eyes were fixed on the rope. As Fang Jie entered the Huangniu River for longer and longer, the rope¡¯s arc on the water surface became wider and wider. At this time, Shen Qingshan and the others didn't even notice that their palms were sweaty.
Just like that, every minute spent in suffering seemed so long. Because the rope is getting longer and longer, the pulling force is getting stronger and stronger. In order to ensure that the rope is not washed away by the current, the flying fish robes can only tighten the rope and then loosen it little by little. They stood on the shore. It was so laborious for several people to work together. One can imagine how much pressure Fang Jie was in the river.
This matter is outrageous.
When people's endurance reached the limit, when Mu Xiaoyao couldn't bear it anymore and reached out to grab the rope, Shen Qingshan suddenly shouted: "Don't move!"
People were stunned, and then looked at the rope.
Gradually, straighten.
How much force is needed to straighten the rope?
At this moment, people felt that the young man on the other side struggling to straighten the rope in the invisible night was like a god descending to earth.
¡¡
¡¡
The rope was tied to the big rock on the opposite side, and then the flying fish robes on the river bank began to exert force at the same time. The rope gradually tightened and gradually rose above the water.
"Don't let anyone break the rope."
Shen Qingshan ordered: "After we pass, relax the rope. We will tie the rope in a secret place on the opposite side, and you must protect it here. You must remember that if the rope is broken, General Fang and we will May never come back!¡±
"Here!"
The flying fish robes responded with solemn expressions.
They understand each other, they admire and respect each other to the extreme.
Zhuo Buyi said: "Don't worry, I will keep an eye on you here."
Shen Qing fan nodded, then jumped onto the rope. She waved to Mu Xiaoyao, and Mu Xiaoyao immediately jumped up. The two walked hand in hand on the rope. It seemed that as long as Shen Qing fanned her, she could turn herself into a breeze, and by the way, Mu Xiaoyao would also turn into the wind. The two people rushed away on the rope, and the rope barely hung down. This shows how advanced Shen Qingfan's cultivation is.
Da Quan looked at the two women walking away hand in hand, smiled bitterly and hugged Zhuo Buyi: "I said you have to rely on yourself when going out, never rely on women."
Zhuo Buyi smiled and said, "The key is that she is not your woman."
The big dog laughed heartily. He was a top-notch Qinggong player, so naturally he wouldn¡¯t lose too badly. After the three of them passed by, Zhuo Buyi was silent for a while, turned around and ordered: "Go and notify Chen Bishan and ask him to lead his troops to guard this place. Don't make a big fuss, otherwise the people on the other side will find out. You must guard the closest place. Even people from Shanziying are not allowed to come near."
The flying fish robes were startled and subconsciously looked at Zhuo Buyi.
Zhuo Buyi said: "This side is safe, which side is unsafe. If the rope is discovered by the rebel scouts, it will be difficult for General Fang and the others to come back. I want to go there"
The ten elite soldiers who were stationed here under Fang Jie's order looked at each other. Chun Gu stepped forward to stop Zhuo Buyi and said, "Sir, there is no need to cross the river. Your Majesty has ordered that there will be no life here. We can just go there." Yes, you just need to take care of this side. Besides, you are highly skilled, but we are better at things on the battlefield."
Zhuo Buyi didn¡¯t know the origins of these ten people. Fang Jie told him that these were the men lent to him by Wu Dao. They were all veterans of hundreds of battles, so Zhuo Buyi had no doubts. It is not unusual for Wu Daodao to recruit any kind of talents.
Zhuo Buyi didn¡¯t know the martial arts of these ten people, but he could guess from Fang Jie¡¯s reliance on them.
"Let's go together. After all, there are people from Shanzi Camp guarding this place."
Zhuo Buyi was silent for a while and said.
Chun Gu hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Okay!"
The equipment of ten people was too heavy, and they were carrying Mingguang Armor and Damo Dao wrapped in cloth. They didn't have such good light skills, so they could only go down to the river and swim along the rope to the other side. Zhuo Buyi followed them on the rope to prevent anyone from being washed away by the water. They walked like this for half an hour before reaching the other side. There was a rope to pull them on. Even though they swam extremely hard, you can imagine how terrifying it was for Fang Jie to walk across from the bottom of the water.
When the eleven people arrived on the other side, Chun Gu and the others were already breathing heavily from exhaustion.
Zhuo Buyi saw Fang Jie sitting on a stone to rest. Under the moonlight, he could see water droplets dripping from his hair.
"I knew you would follow me??. "
Fang Jie looked at him and smiled, his voice was low and he looked tired. Zhuo Buyi could imagine how much effort it took to untie it. An ordinary person wouldn't even be able to pull the rope! Carrying a heavy stone and walking across a river for more than 300 meters, if this incident were to be spread, it would be shocking enough.
"I just want to see if you are exhausted now."
Zhuo Buyi said calmly.
"It's hard to hear a compliment from you."
Fang Jie rolled his eyes at him: "Don't you think I just did something awesome?"
Zhuo Buyi nodded: "If you have come over, you are a great person. If you have not come over, you are a stupid person."
Fang Jie curled his lips: "If I weren't afraid that you would beat me, I would definitely greet you, uncle."
He took a deep breath. He looked really exhausted. He wanted to stand up, but he didn't get up after trying. Zhuo Buyi walked over and gave him a hand. Fang Jie stretched his body and pointed at the stone he was sitting on just now: "I gave this to you. You can't make a fire for cooking. Keep it for drinking blood."
"what."
Zhuo Buyi glanced down subconsciously.
"Tortoise"
Fang Jie shook off the water on his body: "When I walked halfway, the buoyancy of the rope was so strong that it almost pulled me up. I couldn't open my eyes and looked for something at the bottom of the river. This bastard thing happened to swim over and rub against my body. I I pinched it and crushed it to death. It was quite big, weighing sixty or seventy pounds including the shell. Damn it, it took all my strength when I picked it up. I originally planned to keep it for myself, but now. Sent to you"
"My strength is gone, and my life is not guaranteed. You didn't let go and threw this bastard away?"
Zhuo Buyi stared at him and asked.
"This is a wild tortoise, what a good thingit nourishes qi, nourishes kidneys, nourishes yin and nourishes the skin. This is something that will be good for you and her after eating it"
"roll!"
Zhuo Buyi was too lazy to understand and looked around: "Go back early and come back early. No one knows when the rebel scouts will pass by."
Fang Jie hummed, then looked at Chun Gu: "Find a secret place to hide. If the rebels pass by, let them go if they don't find the rope. If they find the rope, they will be slaughtered. If there are many people you Just find a way to get out. If I can¡¯t see the rope when I get back, I will naturally find another way to get back.¡±
"The rope is with the person"
Chun Gu raised her chin slightly and said, extremely serious. - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
