Ancient Sword II: The Tracking of the Fierce Mountain

Chapter 180: The Road to Sacrifice ([-])

She carefully held a silver sapling, allowing its crown to float out of the water, while several roots were still stuck in the spring water.

The branches and leaves of the small trees are luxuriant, and the trunk and leaves are silvery, leaving a beautiful silhouette on the water.She smiled, but her eyes moved to the distant horizon.

There, the sky is rippling with blue waves, and the ups and downs are a pool of clear water instead of clouds.The sunlight swayed in the water, leaving behind golden arcs.

Although the scenery is beautiful, the surging ripples always give people the illusion that they will pour back in the next moment.

She pursed her lips, and her smile gradually faded.

The sapling in her hand trembled, she hurriedly lowered her head, and was surprised to find a small piece of twig wrapped around her finger.This little tree is not a delicate vine, it is really not easy to wrap a branch around her finger.

She couldn't help laughing, and plucked the tender silver leaf buds with her fingertips: [You, what should I do if it's broken? ]

The little tree didn't move at all, but the entanglement became tighter.

[Don't worry about me,] She held up the little tree and gently pressed it against her forehead, [I am no more impulsive now than before. ]

The little tree trembled, and the leaves brushed her forehead, as if to comfort her.

She closed her eyes and looked peaceful.She will not leave here, whether for him or for herself.It's just that the friend who has been with him for so long can't just watch him die before his eyes.

It's just... her strength is too small, really... can she help?

When Shen Ye and Xie Yi both calmed down, the two finally calmed down, and brought up the matters that still need to be resolved.

One is that the four people have separated from the main force, and the two are separated.As for whether the Liu and Huang families are dead or alive, and where the other people who were washed into the cliff by the heavy snow are, it is unknown.

According to Shen Ye, the moment Xie Yi fell unconscious and fell off the cliff, he jumped off.After the two fell onto the huge snowdrift at the bottom of the cliff, Shen Ye endured the severe pain and pulled the unconscious Xie Yi to roll down to the right.The snow at the bottom of the cliff was comparable to a mountain peak, and Shen Ye had to slide for a long time to reach the bottom.As it went down, the snow would freeze harder, and sometimes some extremely sharp ice edges would suddenly appear. Fortunately, Shen Ye escaped without any danger.

What surprised Shen Ye was that Xia Yi and Le Wuyi were also washed down by the heavy snow—the avalanche was so powerful that manpower could hardly resist it.The time when the four of them fell was not too far apart, and once they saw clearly where Shen Ye and Xie Yi were, Xia Yi, just like Le, naturally rolled to the right with them.

According to Xia Yize's recollection, when he and Le Wuyi fell, the top of the cliff was covered with ice and snow, and the Liu and Huang families could not be seen.I don't know if they are struggling, or they have also fallen off the cliff.

It's just that when Xie Yi was unconscious, Xia Yi, like Le Wuyi, had already checked the surrounding area, but he didn't see anyone else.If those people fell, did they all happen to roll to the other side?

It's just that behind the four of them is a peak with no peak and snow accumulation, which completely blocks the road at the other end.Call each other?Who can call from one side of a mountain to someone on the other?So I can only give up.

The second is the image Xie Yi saw before he fell into a coma.It can be said that Xie Yi fell off the cliff because of another factor besides coma.

"So, before you fell into a coma...you saw a woman?" After Xie Yi said, Shen Ye's complexion became uneasy.

"Yes," Xie Yi nodded, "That feeling is too real, it's not like my imagination. And... I always have a feeling."

"how?"

"She is very likely to be the person of my dreams." Xie Yi said seriously.

As soon as these words came out, Shen Ye's face was so pretty.

Didn't you say you can't remember clearly?

Can this be confirmed?

Dreamer?

a woman?

Shen Yehuo seemed to be wearing a green hat, and immediately became angry, and said in a bad tone: "I won't dream of her next time."

Xie Yi was taken aback: "Huh?"

"Just dream about me."

Seeing Shen Ye's affectionate confession, Xie Yi was both helpless and funny: "A Ye, you..."

"Why, don't believe it?"

Xie Yi shook his head and said softly, "I believe everything you say."

As soon as these words came out, Shen Ye became quiet instead, and his eyes were very deep.

"Aye?"

Shen Ye didn't answer, and was silent for a moment, then he spoke again but returned to the main topic: "Then, what did that woman do?"

Shen Ye didn't want to say anything, and Xie Yi didn't ask.

"She asked me to let go." Xie Yi said.

"Let go?" Letting go in a situation like that?Shen Ye frowned, "She wants you to fall off the cliff? No..." As long as they react quickly enough, with the snowdrift below, they can reach the bottom of the cliff safely.

It can be said that this can be regarded as saving their lives.

If Xie Yi really saw the so-called woman, and that woman was not malicious, why did he let Xie Yi let go?unless……

"Is there a road below?" / "There is a road below." The two said at the same time.

Shen Ye raised his eyebrows, as expected.

Xie Yi said seriously: "At that time she was standing next to me, although she didn't speak, but I did have this idea in my mind."

But ordinary people see a phantom, they will not just jump off the cliff obediently like this.

However, Xie Yi's sudden loss of consciousness can be considered a coincidence.

And below, there is indeed a hole in the sky.

Don't look at the ice and snow under your feet, just look at the cliffs on both sides, you can see the obvious traces of artificial excavation.Strips, blocks, the space at the bottom of the cliff was dug out by manpower.

Just, is it necessary to dig at the bottom of the cliff?This place is already empty, why bother?

At this moment, Xia Yi, who was exploring the way forward, hurried back with Le Wuyi.

"Great master, master! There are murals in front!" Le Wuyi was a little excited, and shouted while running.

"mural?"

Xia Yi walked up to the two of Shen Ye, his face was much calmer than that of Le Wuyi: "Yes. The murals are large, and the age cannot be seen."

"Oh?" Even Xia Yi couldn't tell, which is interesting.

Xie Yi patted Shen Ye's hand: "Let's go."

Shen Ye said: "Your body...can it do it?"

Xie Yi laughed when he heard the words: "Didn't you say it, there will be no next time. If you feel unwell, I will definitely tell you."

Shen Ye was relieved a lot.

The four of them walked forward along the stone wall. The further they went, the more obvious the artificial traces became, and the larger the space became.Soon after, large-scale murals appeared on both sides of the mountain wall.

The colors of these murals are very gorgeous, and the general style can still be seen after a long period of weather.The murals are full of women in palace costumes holding fruits and vegetables and musical instruments, walking forward in an orderly manner, as if they are heading for a banquet.Although the part of the mural buried in the ice and snow is somewhat blurred, what the women are stepping on seems to be auspicious clouds?

Is this a picture of a fairy?

It's just that the fairy's costumes are very weird, seemingly gorgeous but a little loose, a bit like a combination of Tang suit and Hanfu.And they don't wear their hair in a bun, and all of them have long hair loose.Looking at it this way, there is indeed no dynasty that fits.

There was obvious disappointment in Shen Ye's eyes.Thinking about it, the four of them came to Liuyue City, but what they didn't want to see was such an unclear mural.

But it's not too early to be disappointed.

Perhaps it is protected by ice and snow, and the murals under the glacier are obviously better preserved.The skirts of the fairies are flying, the auspicious clouds are lingering, and some animals are running back and forth around them.Le Wuyi glanced roughly, but felt that there seemed to be a bump under the foot of a fairy beside her?

The thing was dark, and it was some distance away from the four of them, plus the blur of the glacier... Le Wuyi squinted his eyes, squatted down to take a closer look, and almost lay on the ice.

"Wuyi? What's the matter?" Jian Le Wuyi stopped suddenly, while Xia Yi stood beside him and asked.

"Yize, what do you think this is?" Le Wuyi pointed directly below him, "It's so round, why does it look like..."

After Xie Yi and Shen Ye gathered around Le Wuyi, Shen Ye looked at it carefully for a while, and finally gave the answer: "It's a person."

Le Wuyi was taken aback, looked at Shen Ye in a daze and asked, "Human?"

With Shen Ye's hint, when he looked at the thing again, Le Wuyi found that the thing did have a round head, raised hands like sticks, and clinging to the wall as if about to climb .

Le Wuyi looked more and more like him, and Chenggong was taken aback: "Meow meow! It's really a person!"

Xia Yi supported Le Wuyi's jumping body to prevent him from falling, but his eyes swept back and forth under his feet: "There seem to be many people below."

Neither Shen Ye nor Xie Yi spoke.

The weather was not good today, and the four of them were at the bottom of the cliff. Even with the reflection of ice and snow, it seemed a bit dark.In addition, the color of the soil here is rather black, so the four of them also thought that the blackness under their feet was just rocks.But on closer inspection, it is quite different.

The area under the feet is dark, if you look carefully, it is mixed with a lot of gray and white.

Everyone had searchlights on their helmets, but after they fell off, they were all unusable.Fortunately, the solar flashlight is not lost and can still be used.

Seeing Xie Yi take out the flashlight, Le Wuyi swallowed subconsciously.

I always feel that the scene below will not be so beautiful.

With a "snap", the flashlight was turned on, and after a flash of bright light, it was projected directly downward.

Then, the corpses crawling all over the ground, and the corpses that Le Wuyi saw with wide-open eyes and looking up at the four people with a hideous face, all appeared in front of their eyes.
