There was a smear of white on the horizon. Looking at the time, it was nearly five in the night. The wind and rain had gradually subsided, and the surroundings were empty and quiet. The two people arrived at the peak, hiding behind a rock, and peeked across.
A dark shadow emerged from the cave, peeking out from time to time, his head appearing and disappearing, as though he was observing the situation outside. The surrounding soldiers had already received Hu Bugui's orders, and after shouting and harassing for a while, pretended not to have discovered anything, retreated while swearing, leaving only a few capable scouts hiding in the dark, carefully observing every movement on the opposite side.
The person on the opposite side peeked out for a while, seeing that it was quiet and unguarded, waited for a while, then suddenly threw out a stone, smashing it against the cliff wall. After a muffled sound, the empty valley echoed for a long time.
Cunning thing! Lin Wanrong cursed inwardly, turned around to stretch his back, and caught a glimpse of Fairy Ning hiding behind a rock, her eyes fixed ahead. She was leaning against the rock, leaning forward slightly, her buttocks slightly raised, and her plump body formed a beautiful arc, looking very attractive.
Lin Wanrong laughed, lowering his voice, "Big sister, can you let me go, I really have something urgent to do, my wives are waiting for me to go back and warm the kang bed!"
Ning Yuxi's jade-like hand tightened, locking his wrist pulse, and swept a glance at him with a smile, "You said you wanted to help me, I did not threaten you. Besides, I'm doing this for you, if you're not present, I might be absent-minded, and something might happen. Don't blame me for reminding you. "
After following me for a long time, even Fairy Ning has become so cunning, and has learned to threaten me. Lord Lin was inwardly annoyed. It was not easy to lure Fairy Ning to take action, but who would have thought that this fairy was not easy to deal with. She unexpectedly saw through my trick, and wanted to drag me down with her. Bad luck, really bad luck.
The anger in his heart could not be quelled, and Fairy Ning was holding his wrist, so he simply went all out. Twisting his big hand, he touched Ning Yuxi's delicate little hand that was holding his wrist. "Aiyo!" With a light cry, Official Lin grimaced in pain. His wrist stopped in midair, unable to move. A smile appeared on Ning Yuxi's lips. She exerted more strength in her hands, and no matter how hard he struggled, he could not get away.
Damn it, I've met my nemesis! Sir Lin sighed and said, "Unfair, too unfair. Why are you the only one allowed to touch my hand, but not yours? Is there still justice in this world? "
You want to talk about justice with me? You're so thick-skinned, but I've never seen anyone talk about justice. The fairy smiled lightly and turned her face away, no longer looking at him.
The spy on the other side deliberately made some noise. After waiting for a long time without any movement, he assumed that the imperial troops had indeed retreated. Only then did he relax and slowly poke his head out of the cave he was hiding in. This person was not tall, his face was waxy yellow, his body was skinny, and his eyes were very lively. It seemed that he was not an honest person.
"Fairy sister, what did you see?" Lin Wanrong came to her side and looked at her white and tender little earlobes. His heart itched, and he could not help but blow a breath of fairy air into her jade-like ears, asking with a smile.
Ning Yuxi's body trembled, and her cheeks flushed red. She turned her head and glared at him angrily, "What are you doing? Stay away from me! "
"Fairy sister, it's not that I don't want to stay away from you, but you're really too passionate. I can't leave you even if I wanted to." Lin Wanrong shook his wrist that was tightly held by her, indicating that she was the one holding him. A sneer habitually appeared on his face. Although this Fairy Ning was high and mighty, her body's sensitivity was no different from a normal woman's. Sir Lin, I can feel it with just one touch.
Ning Yuxi snorted and was too lazy to say anything. Her gaze fell on the opposite cliff. That person put his finger in his mouth and whistled. Not long after, a few heads appeared behind him, holding strong crossbows in their hands. The crossbows were full of short arrows that flashed with a faint blue light. It was obvious that the tips of the swords were smeared with poison.
"These thieves are as treacherous and vicious as you." Fairy Ning frowned slightly, as if she remembered something.
Sir Lin laughed. He knew that she was talking about the time when the two of them first met in the forest, when he shot her with a poisonous needle. It was a little sinister, but a human life was at stake, so she could not blame him. He said with an old face, "You flatter me, I only did what I should do. Compared to Fairy sister, I am still far inferior."
The people on the opposite side looked around and discussed for a while. Then, they formed a formation and guarded in front of the cave with a poisonous crossbow in their hands, looking around vigilantly. The skinny man who came out first put his hand on the rock a few times and nodded to the others. Then, he exerted strength in his legs, spread his limbs, and jumped up the cliff like a frog jumping.
Lin Wanrong's eyes blinked as he watched. This brat was looking for death, daring to jump like this? But there were just too many strange things in this world. After that person jumped out, he did not fall down the cliff like Lin Wanrong had imagined. Instead, his hands and feet were like strong suction cups, tightly glued to the vertical cliff without moving. From afar, he looked like a gray gecko. After a slight pause, this person raised his hands and exerted strength in his legs. He stuck close to the cliff, grabbed the protruding cracks between the rock walls, and climbed up. His movements were light and agile, like a nimble monkey.
What kind of skill was this? Sir Lin was dumbfounded. With this skill, he would definitely be the world's number one in the Rock Climbing Conference, and no one would be able to defeat him.
Ning Yuxi was experienced and knowledgeable, so she was not too surprised by this. Seeing that Sir Lin was frightened like a gorilla, she smiled and said, "The world is big, and there are all kinds of strange things. There are scholars who are extremely beautiful, and there are people who are ignorant and skilled. There is no need to be surprised. "
"It's not strange, it's not strange! Who cares if it's a gecko or a spider, one shot and it's finished. Who knows how many of these geckos they have? "Sir Lin rubbed his cheeks and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, still in shock.
Ning Yuxi smiled and shook her head, saying, "Don't worry, this skill is very difficult to learn. It's rare to have someone like this in the world, so how can everyone be proficient in it? This person must have gone up first, and then put down a rope and a basket to help his accomplices below. "
As they spoke, that "gecko" had already climbed to the top of the cliff. With a flip, it rolled a few times on the top of the cliff, then quickly got up.
Only then did Lin Wanrong see clearly that there was a rope tied around the person's waist. It was probably used as a safety belt, so that if he slipped and fell, someone could pull him up. He did not expect bungee jumping to exist in this era. Lin Wanrong could not help but laugh, and he no longer admired this mysterious gecko skill so much.
After that person reached the top of the cliff, he looked around and did not find anything out of the ordinary. Only then did he slowly untie the rope around his waist, and found a big tree to tie one end firmly to. He stood at the edge of the cliff, and pinched his throat to imitate three bird calls. He took out a large basket from the cave, with a thick rope tied to it, and a person squatting in the basket.
Fairy Ning was right, there was only one bandit who was proficient in the gecko skill, and the others had to rely on him to pull them up. Just as he was about to praise Fairy Ning, he heard Ning Yuxi say softly, "Go — —"
As soon as she said that, he felt a small hand as soft as jade being placed in his palm. Fairy Ning pulled Lin Wanrong, and their figures leaped up, like a swallow soaring into the air, shooting straight ahead.
The two cliffs were completely suspended in the air, separated by several feet. The mountain peak was blowing, and the two people's clothes were fluttering. Ning Yuxi's feet did not touch the ground, as if she was flying in the air, and with two steps, she was already at the edge of the cliff.
Lord Lin looked down, and he was instantly scared out of his wits. He saw that there was nothing below his feet, and below him was a bottomless abyss. Smoke slowly rose, and he was walking in the air, as if he was a fairy riding on the clouds.
"Ah — —" Just as Lord Lin was about to speak, a soft hand covered his mouth, and Fairy Ning's voice sounded in his ear, "Don't make a sound, so as not to alarm the bandits."
Looking to the side, Fairy Ning's white clothes fluttered, and her feet stepped on the clouds, as if she was riding on ripples. She leaped over several feet, and reached the top of the opposite cliff.
Damn it, I'm flying, I'm flying. Even when his feet stepped on solid ground at the top of the cliff, Lin Wanrong was still in shock, and couldn't stop patting his chest. You can even play like this, Fairy Ning really is Fairy Ning!
Ning Yuxi's movements were swift and gentle, like a gust of wind brushing past, and no one noticed it at all. That thin "gecko" was facing the two people, and just as he was about to reply to his companion at the bottom of the cliff, he suddenly felt a breeze brush past him, and his body couldn't move, and his mouth couldn't speak. He was like a stone statue that couldn't move at all.
This, what was going on? He was shocked, and then he heard a voice beside him laughing, "This big brother, your style is so special, it's full of power and beauty!"
A young man with healthy skin stood in front of him with a mischievous smile, and beside him stood a beautiful woman. Her temperament was simple and elegant, as if she was a fairy from the Nine Heavens that had descended to the mortal world, making people unable to move their eyes away.
Seeing the man staring at Fairy Ning motionlessly, as if he had lost his mind, Lin Wanrong was infuriated. She ruthlessly kicked the man's butt, and he fell to the ground like a stone.
"Sister Fairy Ning, are you okay?" Lord Lin asked with concern. Fairy Ning frowned, not understanding the meaning of his words. Lin Wanrong chuckled, and said, "I saw that this brat was staring at you, and I was worried that he would do something bad to you."
Ning Yuxi snorted, this person only glanced at me once, and you're already worried that he would do something bad to me. But you stare at me so shamelessly every day, is it good for me?
"Time is tight, don't let the thief below get suspicious, hurry up and investigate." Ning Yuxi laughed helplessly.
Before the thief lying on the ground could speak, Lin Wanrong had already kicked him, "Brat, I'm warning you, this Sister Fairy Ning only allows me to peek, you're not allowed to peek. If you dare to look at her again, I'll dig out your eyes, cut off your little penis, and throw you into the Yangtze River to feed the tortoises."
Ning Yuxi's face turned red when she heard this, and she wanted to kick Lin San off the cliff. What time was this, and he still had these thoughts?
That person made a few sounds, and could not speak. Fairy Ning twisted her palms, and her slender hand swept across that person's neck, and a shiny silver needle appeared in her palm.
"You, who are you?" The person lying on the ground could finally speak, but his voice was very hoarse and weak, and the veins on his face were bulging, and he was in great pain. If it was not for Lord Lin's good hearing, he might not even be able to hear what he said.
Lin Wanrong looked at the fairy in confusion, and Ning Yuxi said casually, "This needle of mine has cut off his tendons and veins, as long as he screams, it will definitely affect his internal organs, and he will be in great pain. I don't think he has the guts to do that, just ask!"
That person clearly did not expect this beautiful woman to have such a method, and his face instantly turned pale, and large beads of sweat rolled down.
Sister Fairy Ning still has this method? That's scary, I've been pricked by her countless times, if she's in a bad mood one day, won't I die unknowingly? Lord Lin trembled with fear as he listened, and his whole body went numb. He did not even look at the beautiful face of the fairy, and looked at the person on the ground with a smile, and said amiably, "You will know who I am in a moment. However, don't be afraid, this sister Fairy Ning is just scaring you, this needle won't tear your heart and lungs, it will only cause you to bleed from all orifices, it's nothing serious, and you will be fine after lying in bed for seventy to eighty years. "
That person was speechless, and could not say a word. Lord Lin laughed a few times, and said amiably, "The heavens have the virtue of cherishing life. As long as you answer my questions honestly, I won't make things difficult for you. I have always been a kind person, you should be able to see that, right? "
That person hurriedly nodded, and said fawningly, "I can see that, I can see that Lord's forehead is full, and you have a kind countenance. In the future, you will definitely have many wives and concubines, a hundred characters, and a thousand grandchildren." His voice was very soft, and he did not dare to speak loudly, obviously afraid of the power of Fairy Ning's needle.
Lin Wanrong laughed, and pointed at his head, and said, "You are quite smart, to be able to guess my identity so quickly. That's right, I am Lin San. I am the one leading the army at the foot of the mountain, what is your name? "
"So you are the Carp Leaping Over the Dragon Gate, Official Lin. This lowly one is Young Master Pan, I have long heard of your great name. "When that person heard his name, he was greatly shocked.
"Young Master Pan?" Official Lin's face darkened, and he angrily said, "In front of Third Brother, you dare to call me Young Master Pan? Fairy Sister, give him another injection. Hit him until half of his body is paralyzed, and he'll be impotent for life! "
Young Master Pan was so scared that his whole body trembled, and he hurriedly waved his hand, saying, "Official Lin, please forgive me, this lowly one is not taking advantage of you. This lowly one's surname is Pan, and I was born in the capital. I have been wandering outside for many years, and I am the youngest, so my parents named me 'Young Master', so I am called Young Master Pan! "
This name was comparable to Gao Chief Gao Shou. Lin Wanrong nodded, "I say, Young Master Pan, since you were born in the capital, why didn't you stay in the capital? Why did you come to this mountain?"
"Hunting, this lowly one has come to hunt!" Young Master Pan's eyes turned as he replied.
"Sister Fairy, give him an injection!" Official Lin did not even blink as he said.
Ning Yu Xi raised her hand, and dozens of silver needles appeared on her wrist at the same time, as if she was going to prick him, causing Lin Wanrong to break out in cold sweat. Young Master Pan hurriedly shouted, "Spare me, Sir, spare me. This lowly one says it all. We came here to wait for Sir's army to arrive. "
"Wait for my army to arrive for what? Don't tell me you want to join the army? "Lin Wanrong said with a fake smile.
"No, it's not that." Young Master Pan hesitated for a while, and seeing that Official Lin was about to change his expression, he hurriedly said, "Someone told us to stop Sir here, so that you can't move forward."
"Stop us? Who sent you here?! "Official Lin raised his eyebrows and snorted.
Young Master Pan hurriedly said, "This lowly one is also not sure. I only learned some climbing skills, and they took a liking to me. They pulled me here, and promised me a large reward, and told me to work for them. "
"Is that so?" Official Lin laughed coldly, "Didn't your master in the Wang Palace teach you how to lie?"
Hearing him point it out, young master Pan's expression changed, cold sweat dripping down his forehead, "You, don't speak nonsense, I have nothing to do with His Highness King Cheng — —"
Lin Wanrong laughed, "His Highness is indeed a great strategist, with three thousand guests and countless strange people. To be able to find someone like you who is proficient in the Gecko Technique, this lowly one can't help but admire you. I say, young master Pan, how much gunpowder did you hide below? "
"You, how did you know?" Young master Pan's face was full of shock, and when he raised his voice, he felt a sharp pain in his internal organs. Thinking of the fairy's words, he hurriedly lowered his voice.
"I can even leap over the dragon gate? Is there anything in this world that I can't do? " Lin Wanrong boasted, his face full of confidence, as if everything was under his control, "Young master Pan, you are very dishonest, looks like I can only give you a shot."
This Official Lin was indeed as amazing as the rumors said, young master Pan didn't dare to say anything else, he kneeled on the ground and kowtowed, "No! Please give this lowly one another chance, this lowly one will definitely report the truth, I don't dare to hide anything anymore! "
Lin Wanrong harrumphed, "Then tell me, how much gunpowder is hidden in this mountain?"
Young master Pan broke out in cold sweat, he said in a low voice, "The cave below is filled with gunpowder, this lowly one didn't count it. I only heard from them that it can level two mountains. "
Level two mountains? Lin Wanrong sucked in a breath of cold air. Damn it, these dogs are really going all out. "How many people are in the cave? Who is the leader? "Lin Wanrong said coldly.
Young master Pan said honestly, "The cave is filled with gunpowder, and there are more than twenty people guarding it. There are also four or five people from Dongying, the leader is a martial tree — — "
"Martial tree?" Lin Wanrong was shocked, "Dongying people? Jimiya Martial Tree? "
Seeing Lord Lin's anger, young master Pan nodded cautiously, "It's a Dongying man, fierce and arrogant. It was their idea to rob the silver in Shandong. Later on, you managed to retrieve the silver, and Jimiya Takeshu volunteered to bury gunpowder here to kill you on the spot. That's all I know, they ordered me to come up here to observe the situation. "
This Jimiya Martial Tree must be holding a grudge against me because I beat him up in court, that's why he's trying so hard to get rid of me. Damn it, how can you Dongying people run amok on my land in China? Lin Wanrong was enraged, he said fiercely, "Do you have any way to get them to come up here?"
Young master Pan hurriedly shook his head, "Lord, I'm only useful because I'm good at climbing, that's why they kept me here. That Jimiya Martial Tree is extremely cunning, he's hiding in the cave, he won't leave until the last moment. "
"Young master Pan, what are you doing? Why aren't you pulling the rope? "A dissatisfied voice came from the bottom of the cliff. The spies sent out by these bandits were in groups of two. Young master Pan naturally had to be the vanguard because he had a unique skill.
Lin Wanrong snorted and nodded to young master Pan. Young master Pan slowly pulled the rope, and a moment later, a scolding voice was heard. Fairy Ning waved her sleeves as soon as she revealed her head. That person softly snorted and no longer moved. Young master Pan was secretly shocked, he was thankful that he didn't do anything.
"What do we do now?" Ning Yuxi glanced at Lin Wanrong and asked softly.
Lin Wanrong was silent for a moment, he suddenly pulled her hand, "Sister Fairy, are you really confident?"
Ning Yuxi lightly shook her head, "I'm not confident, I can only do my best."
"Alright, I'll wait for the good news of your victory." Lin Wanrong righteously said. Just as he was about to turn and go down the mountain, he was pulled back by Fairy Ning, who snorted, "You want to escape now? Did you forget what I said just now? "
"I'm not escaping!" Lord Lin chuckled, "I'm just going to prepare a celebratory feast for you first. I've always been a very enthusiastic person, you know that."
"No need." Fairy Ning smiled, "I'm doing this for you, you can't escape even if you want to. The bandits in this cave are very cunning and vigilant. If I go down alone, it'll be hard to make a move under the watchful eyes of so many people. I need someone to attract their attention. "
"You want me to attract their attention? Sister, you're not joking, right? I'm only good at attracting young girls. "Lord Lin took a few steps back, ready to slip away if the situation turned bad.
Ning Yuxi found it funny and ignored him. She turned to Young master Pan and said with a cold expression, "Tell the people below that there's no abnormality, prepare to return immediately!"
After Young master Pan's words were passed down, Ning Yuxi raised her hand and knocked him out, then said to Lin Wanrong, "Quickly put his clothes on you."
Lin Wanrong understood as soon as she heard this. It seemed that Big Sister Ning had already planned this out. Seeing Fairy Ning standing there motionless, Lord Lin couldn't help but ask curiously, "Sister, why don't you change into their clothes?"
Ning Yuxi snorted, "How can I wear such dirty clothes? You look like them, you can use them. "
Look like them? Compliment me? Just compliment me! Lord Lin laughed dryly. Seeing Young master Pan's clothes in a mess, he took off another person's gray robe and put it on himself, then randomly buttoned up a few buttons. Just as Fairy Ning said, with his temperament, he looked more like a bandit than a bandit. He didn't need to put on any makeup to disguise as a bandit.
Ning Yuxi looked him up and down, then suddenly covered her mouth and laughed, saying softly, "Unprovoked bandit!"
Her smile was like a hundred flowers blooming in the cold winter, causing the world to lose its color. Lin Wanrong's heart beat rapidly, muttering, "A bandit is a bandit. I not only rob money but also rape women."
"What are you still standing there for?" Ning Yuxi glared at him angrily, then pulled at the basket that carried people a few times, "Quickly come in!"
Lord Lin's heart jumped, his calves trembling a few times, damn, this was not a joke, who knew how many explosives were buried down there.
"Sister, can you hug me a hundred times? I'm a little scared, I need your encouragement! "Lord Lin said with a trembling voice.
"What are you scared of?! I'm here to accompany you! " Ning Yuxi raised her eyebrows, her figure standing up, her white shirt and white skirt dancing in the mountain wind, like a fairy out of this world.
Lord Lin's lust surged, and he sneaked into the basket, but he felt something was wrong the moment he entered. Aiyo, I've been tricked, this is a charm technique, even better than Sister An's!
"Get out, I want to get out! I have acrophobia! "Lin Wanrong hurriedly shouted, but it was already too late. Fairy Ning raised her hand lightly, and the rope fell down with a crash. The basket fell halfway down. Lord Lin's waving demonic claws only touched Fairy Big Sister's small hand for a moment before falling down.
I've lost, I've lost, Lord Lin's heart was filled with sorrow. All day long he teased the little girl, but today he was teased by the little girl, he didn't even touch her small hand, and he had to risk his life just like that. I've let down Qing Xuan, let down Ning Er, let down Grand Mistress, let down Lady Xiao!
The rope made a soft crashing sound, slowly falling down. Looking up, there was a bottomless abyss below him, the shaking of the basket made him dizzy, and his heart was in a mess. Waves of biting cold wind assaulted him, and his whole body was cold. It was as if he heard the call of the god of death.
A section of the rope was lowered, the cave was impressively in sight, and from time to time a head would poke out to look up. Lin Wanrong hurriedly pulled up his collar, covering half of his face.
"Zhang Laosan, why are you covering your face?" A bandit below shouted loudly.
Lin Wanrong was shocked, and hurriedly pinched his throat and said, "Mind your own business! Motherfucker, the wind and rain are so strong, I'm up there drinking the northwest wind, but you're down there hugging a girl and having fun — — "
The strange laughter of a man could be heard, and the hidden sentries at the side of the cave dispersed. Sir Lin sat down in the basket and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He raised his head and looked up. The first thing that entered his eyes was a pair of exquisite embroidered shoes. Fairy Ning's white clothes were like an immortal's, and her body was like a swallow's. One of her hands was pulling on the rope, while the other was stepping on the rope. She followed Lin Wanrong down.
Flying people in the air, Lin Wanrong watched in a daze. Ning Yuxi smiled slightly, and suddenly waved at him, pointing downwards. Lin Wanrong turned his head to look, and the basket had already touched the wall of the cave. A head poked out from the cave and said, "Password?!"
Lin Wanrong chuckled, and said in a small voice, "The white sun's clothes are all bare, the yellow dragon enters and flows. Do you understand, you?! "
The sentries didn't even have time to speak before their necks stiffened, and they stood there motionless. Lin Wanrong flipped down from the basket, and carefully took a breath. Motherfucker, I was scared to death. A delicate fragrance floated by, and Fairy Ning's body fell down like a withered leaf, landing right next to him. She lightly snorted, "What were you reciting just now?"
"A good poem. If you like it, I have even more wonderful ones! "Lin Wanrong leaned against her ear and laughed. The two of them were now standing side by side at the entrance of the cave. Even if there were bandits inside, Lord Lin wasn't afraid of her flipping out.
Knowing that this person was despicable, Fairy Ning didn't care about him. She took out a silver needle from the sentry's body, and looked inside. Although the entrance to the cave was small, there was a stone room directly in front of them. It was several square feet, and four or five bandits were drinking and eating meat, shouting loudly, and looking very happy. Looking inside the stone room, it was very gloomy and quiet. They didn't know how deep this cave was, but it was definitely not a problem to bury tens of thousands of kilograms of explosives. They also didn't know how these bandits found this place.
"Sister Fairy, my task is done, the rest is up to you. I'll wait for you here." Lin Wanrong moved closer to her ear and said.
Ning Yuxi rolled her eyes at him, and softly laughed, "It's fine for you to stay here, I'm just afraid that when the bandits rush out later —"
"Oh, it's still warmer inside. I'll stay by sister's side. We'll live and die together, and be loyal to each other." Lord Lin hurriedly changed his words.
Ning Yuxi pursed her lips and smiled, nodding, "Then you follow behind me. Remember, don't try to be a hero!"
Forget it, at this time, it's already good enough that I don't try to be a coward. Lin Wanrong nodded solemnly, and followed behind Fairy Ning, sneaking inside.
Four or five bandits in the stone room were drinking happily, and one of them who was more vigilant suddenly said in surprise, "Hey, it's been so long, why haven't Li Dakui and Zhang Laosan come in?"
"Who cares, let them drink the northwest wind." Another bandit took a bite of a chicken leg and said with a smile.
Ning Yuxi's wrist shook, and several silver needles flew out quickly as if they had eyes. After a few soft "oh" sounds, the room suddenly became quiet, forming a great contrast with the noise just now. This movement and silence were unexpected, and Ning Yuxi also frowned. She probably didn't expect this situation either.
Lin Wanrong was secretly alarmed. With such a big difference, if the people inside were to be alarmed, thousands of kilograms of gunpowder would explode at the same time. Damn it, Sister Fairy and I would become mandarin ducks in the underworld. His face turned pale, and he hurriedly held his breath. Fairy Ning also stopped moving. The stone room was silent, and both of them could hear their own heartbeats.
After a moment of silence, there was no movement. Lin Wanrong let out a long breath, and looked at Ning Yuxi beside him. He saw that Fairy Ning's eyes were calm, and there was no nervousness on her face, but her small hands were holding the silver needles tightly.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here!" Lin Wanrong patted her shoulder, and comforted her with a strong sense of righteousness.
How can you say something like this? Fairy Ning held back her laughter and looked at him. Both of them carefully moved forward, and went through the stone room. They turned a corner, and there seemed to be voices coming out. Both of them covered their footsteps, hid behind the rock wall, and looked inside. Suddenly, they were stunned at the same time.
There were two forks in this cave in front, and from the entrance of the forks, there were densely packed bags, the height of five or six people, all the way to the top of the cave, and all the way inside. It was so deep that they couldn't see the bottom, and no one knew how long it was. There were several people guarding at each fork. The bag had been dyed black, and there was even powder seeping out. The whole cave was filled with a pungent smell.
Lin Wanrong turned around, and his heart was beating rapidly. He couldn't help but take a deep breath. Gunpowder. There was gunpowder piled up here. If they were all ignited and exploded in this relatively narrow cave, it would be more than enough to flatten the entire mountain, let alone the tens of thousands of people. It was too fucking terrifying!
Although Fairy Ning was experienced and knowledgeable, and could remain calm in the midst of chaos, she couldn't help but be shocked when she saw this mountain of gunpowder. Her voice trembled slightly, and she grabbed onto Lin San's sleeve. "What do we do now?"
"Don't be afraid, I'm here!" Lin Wanrong said through gritted teeth.
This time, Fairy Ning was extremely quiet. In this extreme fear, only Lin San's joking words could give her a trace of strength.
"Look, what's that?" Fairy Ning suddenly pulled him back and pointed at an object that had been erected at the fork in the road.
This object was similar to a thick lever, and it was supported by a wooden frame in the middle. The left and right sides were equal in length. A small iron bucket filled with tung oil was fixed on the right side, and a thick twisted rope was threaded through it. On the left side, a lead block was tied to a small oil lamp, and the oil lamp had not been lit. A cardboard box was placed on the ground below, and it was filled with gunpowder. It was connected to the gunpowder pile. There was a big hole at the bottom of the box that led straight to the ground. The gunpowder flowed in, and it seemed to be connected to the outside.
"This is a timer." Lin Wanrong glanced at it and quickly understood the principle. "When they retreat, they only need to fill the iron bucket on the right with tung oil, ignite the twisted rope, and light the oil lamp on the left. When the tung oil on the right burned out, the left end of the scale would tilt down, and the flame in the oil lamp would fall into the gunpowder pile, igniting the gunpowder. "
After listening to his explanation, Ning Yuxi also understood. To be able to make such a delicate timer, these bandits must have prepared for a long time. Lin Wanrong frowned. "But where does the big hole under the gunpowder box lead to? Could there be a detonator outside? "
At this time, it was too late to take a closer look outside. Ning Yuxi frowned and whispered, "Don't speak, someone is coming!"
Between the piles of gunpowder on both sides, there was a small path that could only allow one person to pass through, and a rustling sound of footsteps came from inside. The guards on both sides immediately perked up and got ready.
"Baka!" Several voices in Japanese could be heard, and a few people dressed in samurai clothes with katanas hanging from their waists walked out of the cave. They pointed at the Dahlia guards at the entrance and roared madly.
Lin Wanrong frowned when she failed to find the Jimiya Martial Tree. She asked Fairy Ning, "What did they say?"
Ning Yuxi was proficient in Japanese. She gritted her teeth and snorted. "These people are too much, how dare they insult our China compatriots!"
Needless to say, it was obvious what the Japanese were cursing to make the usually quiet Fairy Ning so angry. Lin Wanrong clenched his fists so hard that his knuckles cracked. "Subservient, damn it, how dare they call themselves China compatriots?! Sister Ning, let's get rid of these Japanese bastards first, then deal with these Chinese traitors! "
This idea coincided with Ning Xianzi's. Looking at the right time, Ning Yuxi's ten fingers slightly spread out, and several silver needles sprayed out together. At the same time, she flew up, waved her long sword, and like an unparalleled lightning, she rushed straight to the people in front of her. Lin Wanrong was not to be outdone. He picked up a podao outside and rushed out, slashing at the neck of the Japanese in front of him. The Japanese pirate did not even have time to make a sound, and a gush of hot blood shot into the sky, dying half of the wall red.
With Fairy Ning's Kung Fu, the silver needles were all fatal. The Japanese triggered the murderous intent in her, and she did not show any mercy. Several Japanese bore the brunt of the attack, and were all killed in the blink of an eye. The two of them worked together, and instantly killed more than ten people in the fork. It was clean and neat, and not a single sound was made.
When all the enemies were down, Fairy Ning looked at the two forks in front of her and said softly, "Which one should we go?"
"Let's go our separate ways." Lin Wanrong held the podao in his hand, and blood flowed down the tip of the blade. He was full of murderous intent.
Ning Yuxi shook her head firmly. "No! We can't go our separate ways, we must be together! "
"So you have such deep feelings for me, little brother can't thank you enough!" Lin Wanrong said with a cheeky smile.
Ning Yuxi ignored his teasing and said seriously, "I think you understand what I mean. If we go our separate ways, I won't be able to take care of you. Protecting your safety is my duty, and I won't accept any other decision. If necessary, I will force you to leave this place. It's your choice! "
Sister Ning was being stubborn at such a crucial time. Lin Wanrong looked left and right, and had no choice but to agree. They had eliminated seventeen to eighteen bandits along the way, and the remaining three, including the Jimiya Takeshi, should be hiding in one of the two forks.
The two went deeper into the tunnel on the left, and after a while, they saw a dim stone chamber ahead. Ning Yuxi nodded at him and peered inside. On the table in the chamber, a katana was placed horizontally, and two samurais were sleeping soundly beside it.
Lin Wanrong was relieved. Ning Yuxi quickly went forward and took out the two Japanese samurais in the blink of an eye. Lin Wanrong pulled the two over, and saw that they were all unfamiliar faces, and the Jimiya Takeshi was not among them. Counting the number of people, he was the only one missing.
"The Takeshi is on the other side!" Lin Wanrong harrumphed. Fairy Ning did not say a word, and dragged him away. As soon as they reached the fork, they heard a loud yell, "Idiot, there's an intruder, die, die!"
"Crap!" Lin Wanrong was shocked, and immediately sprinted toward the exit. He had heard the voice before, it belonged to the Jimiya Takeshi.
Fairy Ning was even faster than him. She dashed past him like a wisp of smoke, so fast that it was impossible to see her figure. When they arrived at the fork, they saw a malevolent-looking Japanese samurai staring at the corpses of his comrade with bloodshot eyes. "For the honor of us Japanese samurai, for the noble Emperor, I'll perish together with all of you. Lin San, you're going to die! "
He burst out laughing, and lit up the oil lamp in his hand, and was about to throw it at the gunpowder box.
Ning Yuxi was still a few steps away from him, and it was too late to save him. In the nick of time, Fairy Ning let out a roar, and a dagger shot out from her sleeve at lightning speed, striking the Takeshi's chest. This strike was extremely powerful, and the force of the dagger didn't decrease even after penetrating his chest. The Takeshi's body flew a few feet away, and only stopped at the entrance of the cave. Jimiya Takeshi spat out a mouthful of blood, and half of his body was thrown out of the cave. He lay there motionlessly.
The dagger struck, and the oil lamp in Jimiya Takeshi's hand fell out. Fairy Ning was as fast as lightning, and before the oil lamp fell to the ground, she stretched out her slender hand and caught the lit oil lamp. She was only a few feet away from the gunpowder box on the ground. The entire process was thrilling, and if it wasn't for Fairy Ning's superior martial arts skills, this majestic mountain would be their burial ground.
When Lin Wanrong rushed over, he saw Ning Yuxi catching the oil lamp, and the flame was almost touching the gunpowder. He sat on the ground, and took a few deep breaths, and only opened his eyes after a long time. Fairy Ning held the oil lamp, and extinguished the flame. She looked at him with a smile, and handed the lamp to him.
The two of them were very close to each other, and Fairy Ning's nose was dripping with sweat, as if there was a fragrance coming from her. Thinking about Sister Ning's martial arts, she was already immune to the cold and heat, but she could still sweat. She had indeed done her best as a bodyguard.
Lord Lin stood up, and he seemed to have recovered some of his strength. He was in high spirits again, and said with a smile, "Thank you, Sister, for saving my life. Let's hug. Don't worry, I'm very pure this time, really very pure! "
Ning Yuxi giggled, "You've forgotten the pain once the scar has healed, and you're doing this again."
Beads of sweat appeared on the tip of her delicate nose, and a faint blush appeared on her beautiful face. This was the first time something like this had happened to Ning Yuxi. Far away from that high and mighty feeling, Fairy Ning was just like a mortal woman, but she gave people a very real feeling, and it was very warm.
Lin Wanrong let out a sigh, "Sister Fairy, I like you better, being so close to me and giving me a warm feeling."
Ning Yuxi's expression changed immediately. She closed her eyes gently, and when she opened them again, she had regained her calm demeanor. There was not a trace of emotion in her eyes.
She had turned back into a fairy again! Lin Wanrong felt bored, and could only shake his head with a wry smile. As he recalled the cunning Jigong Martial Tree, he glanced around and saw the Jigong Martial Tree at the entrance of the cave had disappeared instantly.
"The Martial Tree is gone!" Lin Wanrong shouted. Fairy Ning was also startled. The two of them rushed to the cave entrance at the same time. They saw a thick trail of blood flowing down the cliff walls.
Did he fall down? The two exchanged glances with one another. The possibility was not high.
"Look!" He glanced down the cliff and saw the trail of blood slowly flowing down. A few zhang away from the cave entrance, the Jigong Martial Tree was covered in blood, clinging onto a cliff wall with his last breath. The match in his hand was emitting a bright glow. Not far away from him was a small cave, from which a rope the length of an arm could be seen.
A thought flashed in Lin Wanrong's mind as the cave with the timer appeared in front of him. "Crap, this is the second detonation point!" Lin Wanrong yelled.
Jigong Martial Tree's face was covered in blood. He let out a hideous grin and lit the fuse with the match in his hand, before uttering a roar, "Long live the emperor!" He was already at the end of his rope, thus his body fell down the cliff as soon as he finished the sentence.
The fuse was only the length of an arm. It burned fiercely, reaching the entrance of the cave in the blink of an eye.
"Go back!" Ning Yuxi kicked Lin Wanrong's body, sending him flying far away. Her eyes flickered with determination as she looked at Lin Wanrong and said, "Lin San, remember this, my Yu De Immortal Market will never break our promises!"
With that said, a charming smile appeared on her face. She flicked the sword in her hand and gathered all her strength. Her body shot straight into the abyss like a bolt of lightning.
"Sister Goddess — —" Lin Wanrong screamed in pain. His eyes were bloodshot as he ran toward the entrance of the cave like a madman.
The fuse had reached the gunpowder. Fairy Ning fell straight down. With a flash of her sword, the burning sound stopped. This sword contained all of Elder Sister Ning's life's worth of cultivation. How could she hold back her momentum? Her exquisite figure was like a beautiful meteor that shot straight towards the bottomless abyss.
"No — —" Looking at Sister Ning's fleeting figure, Lin Wanrong grabbed the rock with both hands. Traces of blood flowed from his fingertips as he let out a heart-wrenching scream that resounded throughout the mountain range.
Ning Yuxi's figure had long disappeared without a trace. Lin Wanrong sat on the ground in a daze, as though he had lost his soul. Ever since he and Ning Yuxi met, the times they teased each other was more than the times they were serious. Even this time when they went deep into the mountain to look for explosives, he used some tricks to trick Fairy Ning into helping him, but he did not expect such an ending. This was an indescribable feeling. A fairy-like woman had lost her life to save him. Her vow was like a joke in his mind, but he did not expect her to be willing to use her life to fulfill it.
"Big brother — —"
"Lin San — —"
"General Lin — —"
A burst of shouts came from all directions. Lin Wanrong looked up and saw that on the opposite cliff, Luo Ning was running forward with tears in her eyes, Miss Xu behind her, and Hu Bugui with countless soldiers surging over like a tide.
Lin Wanrong jumped up all of a sudden, his eyes red as he roared, "Hu Bugui, I order you to immediately lead everyone to the bottom of the cliff to find Sister Ning! If she's alive I want to see her, if she's dead — — ah, bah, this doesn't count, no matter if she's dead or alive, I want her alive! If you can't find her, bring your head to me! "
Hu Bugui was taken aback. What kind of order was this? But seeing that Official Lin's hair was disheveled and his eyes were blood red, as though he was going to eat someone, he hurriedly responded and arranged for the soldiers to go down to the bottom of the cliff to search.
When Official Lin came out of the cave, Ning 'er threw herself into his arms, crying loudly, "Big brother, why are you so stupid, you scared me to death!"
Miss Xu's eyes were spitting fire, tears rolling down her cheeks, and she said angrily, "As the commander of the three armies, you put yourself in danger, you, you are really stupid."
"If I'm stupid, then I'm stupid!" He hugged Luo Ning tightly in his arms. "As long as Sister Ning can live, even if I'm as stupid as a pig, I'm willing!"
"Big brother, who is this Sister Ning you're talking about? Is she very capable? "Luo Ning asked, wiping away her tears.
"Sister Ning is a beautiful bodyguard, and her ability is as great as the heavens! If it weren't for her today, I wouldn't be able to see you. If there's a chance in the future, I'll introduce you to her! "Lin Wanrong smiled bitterly, not knowing if he was comforting Luo Ning or himself.
"Since she's so capable, then big brother doesn't have to worry." Luo Ning smiled charmingly. "I've never heard of a Sister Ning dying!"
"Ning 'er, what did you say?" Lin Wanrong was stunned.
Luo Ning pointed at his eyebrows and said softly, "Silly big brother, Ning 'er said,' I've never heard of a Sister Ning dying '!"
"That's right!" Lin Wanrong clapped his hands and stood up, beaming with joy. He hugged the woman beside him and kissed her twice. "My little darling is right, I've never heard of a Sister Ning dying. Damn, I'm so scared that I'm confused. "
The woman was shocked and angry, and her fists rained down. "I don't know if she will die, but you will die very miserably today!"
Seeing her big brother being beaten by Sister Xu to the point of hugging his head and running away, Luo Ning was stunned. Then, she covered her small mouth and giggled. Her eyes were filled with intense love …
