Nanming Engineer

Chapter 60
As a battlefield, the valley has steep sides with a high slope, and is covered with large rocks exposed to the soil. The official road that only allows two people to walk side by side twists and turns in the valley bottom, and there are dense trees on both sides. If you rush into the mountains, you can only In the gap between the trees, I could vaguely see a figure shaking, and it was very difficult to chase and surround it.

Right now, the Qing soldiers are facing such a situation. Li Tingyu's subordinates are scattered and fleeing. There are people's figures flashing from far or near on both sides of the official road, but almost no one is in the same direction. The Qing soldiers can only separate. Individuals chasing a figure.

Su Le led more than 20 people, and closely followed the tall figure who was yelling loudly just now. His eagle eyes never left Li Tingyu's back. He ordered his subordinates to draw bows and shoot arrows several times. Using the cover of the trees, he hid in the past, which made Su Le's teeth itch with hatred, wishing that the wind would blow under his feet and fly to Li Tingyu's side.

It's a pity that the hillside I'm climbing is a stone mountain. Li Tingyu is very good at choosing places. Apart from stones on the mountain, there are trees. The slope is very steep, and you have to use your hands and feet to climb up.Li Tingyu is originally a native of Sichuan. He has been used to climbing mountains and ridges since he was a child. Mountain climbing is as easy as walking on flat ground. For him, the mountains are as easy as walking. Jumping and moving among the rocks like an ape, he climbed to the top of the mountain in the blink of an eye.

Although Su Le and the others are strong and strong, they are good at horseback riding, and they are not good at rock climbing. The distance between Li Tingyu and Li Tingyu was not very far, but they were pulled further and further away.

Li Tingyu climbed up to the top of the slope, breathed a sigh of relief, hid behind a big rock and looked down the slope, saw a group of Eight Banners soldiers in iron armor still crawling hard on the mountainside, couldn't help but sneered, Ran said: "Compete with your grandfather on the soles of your feet, isn't it asking for trouble?"

Turning his eyes, he saw the corpses of his subordinates lying in a pool of blood at the mountain pass in the distance. The uncontrollable grief in his heart was unbearable. Those soldiers were all survivors. They did not die on the Jiangnan battlefield, but fell down. On the way home, this made him, the general, regret it.

Li Tingyu was furious with these **** Tartars, and touched his body subconsciously, only then remembered that he was pretending to be a businessman, with no bow or gun on his body, only a short knife hidden in his waist.He took out the knife and took a look, and felt that throwing it as a hidden weapon would not kill anyone, so he put it back to his waist, looked around, picked up a big stone by hand, stood up and held it above his head, and cursed angrily: "Come on , **** Dongnu, grandpa is here, come and fight with grandpa!"

Just as he was about to throw the stone down to the top of the head of the Qing soldiers, several hands stretched out from the stab, and someone shouted: "Be careful, general!" They pulled Li Tingyu to the ground with force.

Several people fell to the ground, only to hear the sound of "咻咻" above their heads, and three or four sharp arrows flew over the place where Li Tingyu was standing just now. If he hadn't fallen to the ground, Li Tingyu would have been shot through by this time.

Li Tingyu secretly exclaimed that he was lucky, got up and saw that the one who saved his life was none other than Wang Huan and a group of monks who were crawling quickly with oil on their feet. It turned out that when they saw the situation was not good, they headed towards the road first without waiting for Li Tingyu's order. They climbed up the side mountain, so even though they were young and weak, they climbed faster and higher than Li Tingyu, a soldier who grew up in the mountain. The Qing soldiers on the mountainside were desperate, and several Qing soldiers on the mountainside had bowed their bows and set up arrows. They were waiting for him to show up, and rushed over to press Li Tingyu down to prevent him from being pierced by random arrows.

"My lord, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time, we have to leave here quickly!" Wang Huan glanced at the Qing soldiers who fell tightly behind, and said eagerly.

Li Tingyu broke out in a cold sweat, and his feverish mind calmed down. He also knew in his heart that the situation was critical. Maybe his famous name would have to be confessed here today. He nodded hurriedly, looked around, but said bitterly!
The top of the hillside where everyone stands is just a small hilltop of a towering stone mountain. The stone mountain is probably 30 meters high and steep on all sides. On the inner side, there are rocks connected to the stone mountain. Climbing up like a monkey, if you want to go down here, you have to go back the same way, but on the way here, Su Le and others are waiting with their necks raised and knives raised.

Wang Huan gritted his teeth, looked up at the stone mountain, and said in a deep voice: "There is no other way now, but to continue to climb up a road. When you reach the top, there may be a way to go down from the other side."

Xu Goudan asked in fear: "But, what if there is no way to go down when we reach the top of the mountain?"

Chen Ergou gave him a slap in the face, slapped him on the forehead, and said angrily: "You can't say something nice!"

Li Tingyu also raised his head to look up, and said solemnly: "Whether there is a road up there or not, Wang Huan is right, we can only climb up, hurry up! Don't be wordy, the tartars below are coming up soon!"

More than a dozen young monks rushed to the rock, using both hands and feet, clung to the cracks in the rocks, trying to climb up.The mountain wall is almost straight up and down. Fortunately, there are some vines growing out of the crevices, and the rock crevices and corners allow you to put your hands and feet, and it is not very difficult to climb.

Gritting his teeth and crawling for a while, Wang Huan felt that his hands and feet were about to lose strength. Hanging in mid-air like this, only relying on his hands and feet for support, coupled with the dizziness from heights, it is easy to make people afraid of heights. , such as Wang Huan, immediately felt tired.

But if you don't climb up, it will be a dead end for the tartars below to catch up. Wang Huan looked around, Xu Goudan and Chen Ergou and other young monks, but they are extremely flexible, attached to the mountain wall like hanging on the wall. The geckos kept climbing upwards, and they reached the top one by one in less than half a stick of incense.

Wang Huan had no choice but to yell at these guys for being unjust, but at this moment he was all supported by his stomach, and he would lose his breath as soon as he opened his mouth, and he would fall down immediately, so he had to close his mouth tightly, eyes Staring at the top of the mountain, he dared not move his nest, and moved up step by step.

Just when he was exhausted physically and mentally, a long vine fell from the top of the stone mountain and threw it directly to his side. When Wang Huan saw it, he saw a bunch of heads emerging from the top of the mountain. Live in the tree vines, we will pull you up."

Wang Huan was overjoyed, and immediately shouted in his heart: "These little brothers are still interesting." He stretched out his hands, firmly grasped the tree vine, and hung himself on it. Then everyone above used their strength to lift him like a pig. Pulled up to the top of the mountain.

After setting his feet on the ground, Wang Huan let out a long breath, and immediately began to observe the place he was in. He found that the top of the rocky mountain was not big, only about ten square meters, surrounded by air, and there was no way to go. There are cliffs and cliffs, and the bottom of the valley is nearly [-] meters high. If you want to go down, you can only jump off the cliff directly.

Chen Ergou followed Wang Huan to look around, his face turned pale, he grabbed Xu Goudan and slapped him again: "You crow's mouth, look at what you have done!"

Xu Goudan covered his head and cried, "What did I do? I didn't do anything!"

Hu Dahai asked urgently, "Wang Huan, what should we do now? Where are we going to escape from?"

Wang Huan glared at him, thinking, if you ask me, who should I ask?Right now it is a dead place, except for a multicolored auspicious cloud that descended from the sky, put us all on it and floated away, and there was no withdrawal at all.

I thought so in my heart, but I couldn't say that in my mouth. Wang Huan was a person who died once, and was rescued by Li Tingyu under Tian Xiong's sword. Will give up lightly, even in the face of a desperate situation at this time, he still frowns tightly, thinking nervously about how to get out.He scanned the landscape of the top of the mountain inch by inch, but suddenly remembered another thing. There seemed to be one person missing on the top of the mountain.

"Where is Master Li? Where is he?" Wang Huan took a look and found the problem. Li Tingyu didn't come up!
The young monks looked at each other. They were in a hurry just now, and no one noticed the problem. Wang Huan desperately rushed to the side of the mountain wall he climbed up, and looked down.

On the top of the small hill below, Li Tingyu, the commander-in-chief of the white pole, was hiding behind the rocks, peeking at the Qing soldiers struggling to crawl below, and seeing whoever climbed faster was approaching the top of the mountain, he grabbed a big rock and Throwing it down, it hit the man's head accurately, and then immediately retracted behind the stone, avoiding the bow and arrow shot up.

There is no way to hide on the mountain wall, and it is impossible to keep looking up when climbing a mountain. Li Tingyu hit it right, and the head of the smashed person was bloodied, and he rolled down the hillside howling. It's still a little gentle, and you won't die if you roll down.

Su Le was furious. Today was so fucking weird. First, a firework made a group of rebels who could easily be captured into a frightened group. He turned his painstaking hunt into a mountain-climbing competition, and finally surrounded He became the head of the bandit, but he hit him with a stone so that he was helpless. This battle was really aggrieved, and I will never forget it.

"Spread out, and send someone to climb up from behind!" Su Le roared, "Whoever catches the leader of the thief will be rewarded with thirty slaves and a thousand taels of silver!"
