Chapter 13 Chapter 12 Escape

After being stared at by the giant moth, I realized that I had been at the top of the tree for too long and had exposed my target.Almost at the moment of exhaling and breathing, the huge thing vibrated, and countless gray-white scales rolled towards me like rain, because I didn't know whether this thing was poisonous, so I didn't dare to underestimate it. On the back road, he rolled over and plunged directly into the thick branches of the dense forest.Although the thing was huge, it was flying in the sky after all, and it couldn't penetrate the branches and leaves for a while. I seized this opportunity and jumped down the tree quickly.Just kidding, this ghostly place is full of silver cocoons, who knows how many moths will pop out in a while.I don't have a weapon in my hand, and I don't have any support around. I won't be so stupid as to rush to fight it. As the saying goes, two fists are hard to beat with four hands. People not only have hands, but also wings.I don't know if it was because of the recent rain, but when I landed, I stepped on the mud and almost fell down.But without wasting a moment, I looked up at the movement of that thing, and it was really blocked by the impenetrable canopy, making it impossible to get close to the ground for a while.I ran as soon as I could, and chose to walk along the narrow and densely forested fork.The thing followed above my head without a single slack.I knew in my heart that escaping like this was not the way to go, I had to think of a way out, and the key was to join up with the large forces.It’s just that I’ve just arrived in Leigongling, and I can’t even tell the direction at the moment. Breaking out from here is almost as difficult as snatching buns from a dog’s mouth.In a hurry, I remembered that Uncle A Tie said that the goal of our trip was to climb the mountain cableway, and people, horses and goods had to go on the cableway in order to reach the opposite bank at the fastest speed.He also said at that time that our location is only a few hundred meters away from the cableway, and it took me only ten minutes to be pulled up the cliff by Guisi. As long as I can touch the main road and walk all the way down the mountain, I will definitely find the whereabouts of the caravan .After making up my mind, I stopped hesitating, took a deep breath, and prepared to rush out of the woods to find life.Silver powder kept falling from the air, which meant that the giant moth was still staring at it.I really don't understand how such a huge creature can survive here.Jiangcheng is only half a day away from here, and travelers often borrow paths from the mountains. I just saw their larvae preying on silver cocoons to make cages on the mountain path. Instinct is by no means a day's work.With such a huge size, what do they usually feed on? Why have the nearby residents and false business travelers never been attacked?I always felt that the attack on the caravan was unreasonable. It was just a moment, my thoughts were too confused, and I was too busy fleeing for my life. I really couldn't think of a reason.At this time, a crackling sound came from the top of my head, and I looked up, good guy, it turns out that there is also a silver cocoon wrapped around the tree here, and it is crumbling at the moment, I am afraid that another giant moth will break out of the chrysalis .I saw that this place is not suitable to stay for a long time, turned around and prepared to leave without thinking, but saw a burst of fire suddenly ignited at the bottom of the silver cocoon, and the strange noise just now was made when the silver thread was burning.Seeing something strange, I felt suspicious, and didn't rush to escape. I quickly looked around, picked up a rotten branch from the ground, and stabbed it at the fire's silver cocoon.After poking it, I heard someone inside screaming for pain.I am delighted, it seems that this brother has not yet turned into a chrysalis.Immediately, I picked it up a few more times, trying to quickly get that thing off the tree.I don't want the flames to burn more and more intensely. My eyes hurt from being roasted under the tree. If I don't hurry up, the person inside may not be eaten by the larvae of the moths, but will also die in the sea of ​​flames.The people inside seemed to be suffering from great pain, and the silver cocoon was shaking like a big red lantern.Soon under the fire and shaking, a scorched path of life was cracked at the bottom of the silver cocoon. Before I could see who fell, I felt a weight on my head, and I was crushed to the ground with my back down. .That hit hit me, my spine almost broke, and I cried out in pain. "Old Hu?"

The person on top of me was covered in black ashes, and the clothes on his body were almost melted.Only a pair of glasses, very bright in the dark night.I pushed him aside and asked, "Why the hell are you here? What's the matter?" Qin Siyan narrowly escaped, he glanced at the broken cocoon burning on the top of the tree, and said with a smile: "I see that after you were caught, you also followed your example and pulled the silver thread. No, you are trapped Living." He pointed at his neck, which was full of blood, red and swollen, "If it weren't for the lighter that we carried with us, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to talk now."

I saw that besides the bite marks on his body, there were already blisters on several exposed skin, especially on his arms, where the flesh was red. If it is not disinfected and bandaged in time, it may leave hidden dangers.At this time, due to the fierce firepower, Po Cocoon finally couldn't hang on and fell down.I hurriedly pulled my eyes aside. "Extinguish the fire." I took off my coat and rushed up.This place is full of inflammable materials, and a single spark can cause a forest fire, which must be extinguished immediately.The four eyes also understood the pros and cons of it, and immediately ran up, first throwing away the dead branches and rotten leaves on the ground, and then trampled on the fire cocoon with their feet.We have been busy for a long time, at least we managed to wipe out the burning silver cocoon.

Panting with four eyes, he looked at the wound and said to me: "This place is too dangerous. I think it's probably a bug nest. Let's go. I don't know what's going on with the caravan." "Out of the woods, look for the main road. If there is a ropeway in this kind of place, it must be impossible to hide in the dense forest. It should be a relatively open place, and then there must be a solid foundation for the foundation." Four eyes nodded: "Our current position is roughly two-thirds of Leigong Ridge. Uncle Atie and the others said that the cableway is on the mountainside. If we can return to the winding mountain road when we came back, the speed will be faster."

I said don't rush away, and treat the wound a little bit.I have water, alcohol and gauze in my backpack, all of which I got from Jiangcheng Lin's shop.I am used to walking in the wild, and I don't have any emergency equipment on my body, so I feel uncomfortable all over.The fat man always said that I was just worrying about it, and now the facts speak louder than words, but unfortunately, the other person is not here.When I go down the mountain and meet someone later, I have to let Siyan speak out and give him a wake-up call.I asked Siyan to remove all the tattered cloth heads on my body, then washed his wounds with clean water, and finally took off my coat to him.After finishing these tasks quickly, we made a simple torch with torn clothes and alcohol, and then we set out on the road to find the troops of the large army.Along the way, Four Eyes talked to me about the giant moth in Leigong Ridge, and they all felt incredible. "Do you think it's possible that it came out of nowhere?"

"Not too possible" "I think so too, but what do they live on? You have also seen the scene today, they are definitely carnivorous insects." The four eyes said this, but it reminded me.I hissed and looked up to find the white moth that had been following me.After turning around, there was no trace in the sky.It's strange, just now it was watching me all the way, but after the four eyes came, it disappeared.I took a look around. At this moment, my upper body was covered with my big coat, and my arms were wrapped in gauze. I was as embarrassed as I was, and it didn't look like there was any secret recipe for repelling insects.

When he saw me looking at the sky, he also stopped and asked me what was going on.I told him about the disappearance of the moth.Siyan pondered for a moment, and said, "Do you think there is such a possibility that it is not afraid of people, but fire?" Hearing what he said, I suddenly realized: "It is very possible! When I was fighting the fire just now, I did not see the powder floating down again, which means that it was no longer on the scene. After that, we have been fighting the fire, at least until just now So far, I haven’t seen its shadow. From my point of view, this giant moth is probably afraid of fire, and has already fled away.”

This is really a great anecdote in the world. I have only heard of moths rushing to a flame. The giant moth on Leigongling ran in the opposite direction. As soon as it found Mars, it ran away. After thinking about it, it can be said that it is not smart. Soon, we found it Looking at the traces of the Panshan Road, he pointed his four eyes at the fire ahead and shouted, "There are people there." When I saw that there was indeed a bonfire stationed among the cliffs, I knew that it was Uncle Atie and the others below, so I immediately ran towards the mountain road with four eyes.After a while, the caravan team appeared within my line of sight.The people over there also clearly felt the fire in the forest.Chamu was the first to see us, he jumped up excitedly and waved to us vigorously.The people in the team all showed surprised expressions when they saw us walking down from the top of the mountain.Yang Erpi was originally sitting by the fire, but when he heard a movement, he immediately pulled out his pistol.I was afraid that he would fire black guns indiscriminately on impulse, so I could only shout: "It's me, Hu Bayi."

This sound is not only shouted to him, but also to other people.If the old man wants to shoot guns indiscriminately, he must have scruples.Sure enough, Xiangling and Uncle Ah Tie stood up at the same time and looked towards us.The boy Cha Mu quickly walked up to me, with a black face, he didn't know whether to cry or laugh, he hugged me and said: "You guys are really scary, you disappear as you walk... What's wrong with the scholars? Why are you all injured? Hey, Mr. Hu, why are your clothes missing? By the way, where did you go, why did you blink..." I was questioned vehemently by him, and for a while I didn't know which one to answer first. He just said that the two of us are not in the way, and I will talk to Uncle Atie first.Chamu hurriedly nodded and said "yes" and took me and Siyan to the bonfire camp in the open space in the mountains.After walking in, I found that there were a few fewer people in the team, and there were only three of Yang Erpi's buddies.Everyone looked at me with terrified eyes, as if they had seen a ghost.I didn't ask much, and went straight to Uncle Ah Tie, and said to him, "I've found out about the disappearance. It's the giant moth larvae in the mountains that prey on people. They use tough silk as bait to stick on people's shoulders. When people are unprepared, they will forcefully lift them up the mountain and use them as food for eggs. We almost died in the cocoon just now. Many adults have already hatched in the woods on the mountain. It is too dangerous here, so we should evacuate early For good."

Under the firelight, Uncle Atie's face looked very serious. After listening to what happened on the top of the mountain, he sat down quietly and said with a sigh: "So, my people are all wrapped up by moths on the mountain. I have gone. Damn, I have been running for so many years, and in Leigongling, I wish I could walk past every stone. Why did I encounter such an unfortunate thing today?" After he finished speaking, he glared at Yang Erpi.That Yang Erpi had been standing beside us before, intentionally or unconsciously listening to everything I said.At this moment, his complexion was not good, and he wanted to speak several times, but finally held back.It was only later that I found out that his chain of fellows who were tied together was really hung up by the strange thread on the mountain.Fortunately, the leader was smart, cut the rope around his waist in time, and narrowly escaped death.Otherwise, Yang Erpi would really be a poor commander this time.Seeing that everyone was silent, Xiangling threw away the firewood in his hands, and took the lead in speaking: "We have come here, the cableway is right in front of us, so why not go? Since the monsters on the mountain are afraid of fire, everyone just put the torches on the ground." Stand up. I am not afraid of any woman, are you all sitting stupidly?"

"I bother!" A horse breeder couldn't help jumping up, "I'm not afraid of it. I want to go up the mountain to avenge my brothers!" After he finished speaking, he took out the crossbow at his waist and made a gesture to leave.Immediately, several people followed him and stood up, clamoring to set fire to the forest, force those things out, and give back to the dead caravan.Seeing that the situation was going to be chaotic, he heard a loud roar: "This iron horse gang, in the end I am the master, or you are the master!" Uncle Ah Tie stomped his feet, and everyone was shocked.At this moment, his face was livid, and his eyes were wide open.He took out the shotgun at his waist and looked around at everyone: "We are a caravan, not a bandit. When we joined the gang, we signed a life and death certificate. This revenge is to be avenged, but not now...We are horse racers, reputation is more important than life, promise I have to go to Fuxian Lake before the sun rises tomorrow, so you can’t delay it, you have to deliver it before the sun goes up the mountain. Leopard, you are going to avenge your brothers. I will be the first to nod, but this matter can’t be done now .Everyone listen to me, pack up your things immediately, check the goods, and lead the mules and horses. Let's go down the mountain by cableway, and when we come back, I will level the mountain for you to see." Uncle Ah Tie spoke, and no one else could refute it.His four eyes were speechless, and he gave me a thumbs up.I thought again of the year when I had a big killing spree with the fat man on Huangpizi Slope.So I understand Uncle Ah Tie's mood at the moment.Yang Erpi didn't seem to think that Uncle Ah Tie was willing to go on, so he let out a long breath.Walking to the bonfire, he bowed his hands to everyone: "My friends, this trip today is my fault for you. The dead brothers are counted on me. In the future, I will go up the mountain with you to avenge them." Uncle Ah Tie waved at him: "We took over the business ourselves. How can we blame others for something wrong. There is no such person in the Iron Horse Gang. You tell your own people to be careful. Check the goods. We are going to get off the ropeway now." .” At that time, I only thought that Yang Erpi was too righteous this time, and he might be hiding something tricky. I didn't realize until I went down the mountain that this guy clearly had something in his words, and he was hiding something deep. I have been listening to everyone talking about the Leigongling Cableway along the way, and now I am about to see its true face on Lushan Mountain, so I can't help feeling a little excited.The leopard who had led the mutiny earlier heard Uncle Atie's words and walked to the edge of the open space. He held up the torch and tore down the branches on the mountain wall.I have long wondered why there is a corner full of branches and leaves on the mountain road where there is no grass.Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a bunker made by a caravan.Uncle A Tie explained that the purpose of this bunker is not to hide the location of the cableway. He pointed to the single-wire steel wire embedded in the cliff and said, "Look at this lock, if it is not maintained properly, it will come out after a few trips." Dangerous. Our people will regularly go up the mountain to check and replace the cableway accessories. These branches are used to protect against wind and rain. Don’t look at this thing as simple, fly straight down, pass the mother-in-law stream at the bottom of the mountain, and you will be in the seedling area. Shan saves ten times the time." I looked at the foot of the mountain, and sure enough there was a river at the southern foot, shining in the night.Chamu excitedly introduced us to this mother river where he touched shrimp naked when he was a child.According to him, this is the largest stream near Yuemiao Village, and the people in the village can't live without this mother-in-law stream.On the surface of the stream, what is shining like a galaxy at the moment is the unique way of catching shrimp in their village - releasing river lanterns.Using the principle of the river shrimp facing the light, the shrimp catcher inserts the cut wooden stakes in various parts of the stream, with the stake as the center, surrounds a circle of nylon nets, and finally hangs the light bulb on a small motor and ties it to the stake In the center, it usually takes three to four hours to collect the net and catch a net full of shrimp. "I used to use kerosene lamps, but recently switched to motors. One motor can connect more than a dozen light bulbs. It's very convenient!" Chamu said and pulled the steel wire, ready to go down the cableway first.Uncle Ah Tie pulled him back immediately: "You are too small to be a pioneer. Xiangling, give me the basket, and I will go down first." Uncle Ah Tie walked with a load to make sure that the steel wire can bear the weight of everyone. After all, Cha Mu is a young man, only about a hundred catties. He can pass the cableway, but it does not mean that other people can pass it smoothly, let alone There are also horses and goods in the procession.Siyan said that he didn't expect Ah Tie to look rough, but his mind was very delicate, and he even noticed these easily sloppy details.I nodded, being careful with the Wannian ship, even if someone would go up the mountain for maintenance on weekdays, it is hard to guarantee that there will be no accidents at critical moments.Uncle Ah Tie took an iron double-ended hook, wrapped one end in his hand with cotton cloth, and then smeared grease on the end connected to the cableway.I asked Xiangling, since he knew that the one-way cableway was dangerous, why he didn't install one and made a double-strand cableway, so it was stronger.She thought for a while and replied: "Look at the piece of steel wire hanging around the waist of the pot head. After a while, won't it be two-way if it is connected to the opposite bank?" I asked inexplicably: "Since this is the case, wouldn't it be good to make a two-way cableway from the beginning? Why bother, every time you take an adventure?" Xiangling bit her lip and didn't answer me.Four eyes pulled me and said: "The caravan is a branch of the transportation industry. They earn money and take roads that ordinary people can't walk. If the cableway here is built in two directions, the risks on the road will be reduced. , there must be others willing to take the risk.” I nodded. His analysis made sense. If everyone in the world could fly across Leigong Ridge overnight, it would be like cutting off a source of income for the caravan.The one-way cableway is not only dangerous, but also has no return, and ordinary business travelers dare not try it lightly.Every time the caravan crosses the cableway, they must first send a person to connect the other steel wire on the other side of the mountain. When the person takes the steel wire to the other side, as long as the locks are connected, a simple two-way cableway can be formed.When the last person leaves, remove the second steel wire.Going back and forth like this, cutting off other people's way and making their own money, it can be said that they are not well-intentioned.Chamu listened to our analysis, and suddenly realized: "I said why I have to take it apart every time, the pot head is really smart." I know that these horse racers are hard-earned, and I have not expressed my views.I'm just a little worried. The one-way cableway relies on the downward force and gravitational force. Once they want to turn back from the opposite bank, it's almost impossible.What if something unexpected happens.Just as he was thinking, Uncle Ah Tie was ready to go, so he gave a thumbs up to Leopard and the others.Then with a loud cry, he grabbed the hook, kicked his feet on the edge of the cliff, and flew out like a tiger out of its cage.Seeing Uncle Ah Tie's muscular figure, everyone couldn't help cheering.Xiangling put her hand on her forehead, looked around for a while, then turned around and said, "One more person will help Guotou pull the rope. The rest of the people will tie up the horses and goods. When the two-way street is ready, we will go Take the goods." I asked her how to transport horses and goods over this steep cliff. Livestock on land are born afraid of heights.Horses are not tame animals, if they move around halfway and make a mistake, wouldn't there be no chance of saving them? The leopard gave me a blank look, and said harshly: "Our horses are no more delicate than your Han people. Don't talk about the ropeway, you are not afraid of going into the sea of ​​fire. You can watch it later. If my black cloud dares to go up With a roar, I will give you all the wages for this trip, kid." Although he sounded like he was deliberately finding fault, I knew he was actually annoyed by the trouble Yang Erpi caused.He rushed the shipment in a hurry, calling the caravan to damage his brothers out of thin air, and because of the majesty of the pot head, the leopard dared not challenge him face to face, so he had nothing to do but find someone to quarrel with him in order to vent his anger.So although I was angry in my heart, I didn't want to challenge him on the spot.Chamu couldn't get used to it, so he stepped forward to dissuade him, but was scolded by the leopard. "People who have only known each other for a long time, you speak for him instead. These Han people are treacherous and deceitful, especially that old man who is causing everyone trouble. Which side are you on, Chamu? Did you take advantage of others?" Chamu was so angry that his eyes straightened. I couldn't get used to such unreasonable people, so I lowered my face and stood in front of him. "You, what are you going to do?" When I raised my hand, I was slapped in the face. The leopard had been prepared for a long time, but its speed was not as fast as mine. It's awkward. Why do you have the nerve to start an internal strife now, you are worthy of the dead brother, and the horse pot head on the opposite side!" This trick is called the head start, and the trick is to overwhelm the opponent in terms of momentum before the enemy attacks.Frighten the other party out of anger, and you will naturally occupy the moral high ground. This is one of the few great skills that Fatty summed up.I learned and used it flexibly, and gave the leopard a blow.The others were packing their luggage and preparing to get off the cableway, but when they heard that there was a commotion on our side, they all looked over here.The leopard blushed and didn't know how to explain for a while.Xiangling stepped forward to make a rescue, she stretched out her hands, and thumped the shoulders of the two of us vigorously: "Okay, what time is it, two big men, don't be shy. Leopard, you go over later, help me Guotou is picking up the goods on the other side. Brother Hu, have you ever gotten off this kind of ropeway before, can I find someone to teach you?" I was ashamed to embarrass the little girl, so I followed her lead and took over the conversation.I told her that I was quite experienced in the two-way cableway, and it was true that I sent two people to teach Yang Erpi and his group.Speaking of Yang Erpi, it seems that since I came back, he hasn't spoken much.Has the old thing changed its gender?Scared by the giant moth on the mountain, are you honest?No way, no matter how you put it, it’s going all over the place. A gang tycoon who has been through decades of turbulence and waves will be recognized after a few people die?I couldn't help but looked at Yang Erpi and the others, and found that they were whispering together in a group.Yang Erpi's face turned blue, and he seemed to be trying his best to restrain his emotions.While speaking, his hands were shaking slightly.I wanted to lean up and take a look, but my four eyes stopped me.It turned out that he had never had the experience of crossing the cableway. Looking at the black cliff under his feet, he felt panic and asked me to teach him. I said that this matter is actually the same as learning to swim. Those who have never been in the water are afraid of burying their heads in the water, but they will naturally not be afraid if they choke once.The same goes for the cableway, you will know once you try it, it is not much more difficult than eating.The four eyes gave an "oh" and asked again: "Then what if I fall down?" I thought about it and said, "Then there's no other way. Why don't you leave a note, if you have something to say, I'll convey it to you later." Siyan kicked my ass on the spot, I laughed out loud and told him it was all a joke, just to help him relax.At this time, Leopard and Uncle Atie had already reached the opposite bank one after another, and they raised the green pennant on the opposite side.Xiangling also hung the same flag here.She turned to the two remaining horse breeders and said, "The ropeway has been firmly installed. You tie up the horses and prepare to go over." One of them, the fat black man, nodded and drove a heavily tied cargo horse to the edge of the cliff.The tall horse seemed to have long been used to following the caravan across mountains and ridges, and took the cableway to the dangerous beach. At this moment, facing the steep cliffs and valleys, he didn't panic at all, and stood there quietly, letting the horse breeders play with them.It didn't take long for the belt buckle wrapped around the horse to be hung on the suspension under the ropeway.I asked Xiangling if she wanted to find someone to go with the horse. She blamed me for not having seen the world, and said with a smile: "What are you afraid of? I'm an old horse. I'm used to it. Besides, the ropeway is too heavy to bear, and it is more likely to be dangerous. .” As he spoke, the two horse breeders made gestures to each other, yelled in unison, and pushed the cargo horse out. Although they are experienced, they can't get rid of the biological instinct after all. The white horse was pushed out of the cliff by them, its whole body sank, and its four hooves immediately galloped in the air, neighing continuously. It seemed that it was not lightly frightened. .On the other side of the river at the foot of the mountain, Uncle Atie and Leopard, wearing thick carpentry gloves, were wheezing and pulling the rope towards themselves.Seeing that the caravan didn't need help, I turned around to check on Yang Erpi's situation. Probably because of the accident just now, no one in the caravan is willing to take the initiative to help him prepare for crossing the river.Yang Erpi had an old face, and he couldn't bear to come out to find someone to inquire about his next move.I saw the posture on both sides, so I had no choice but to go up to make peace.Seeing me walking towards them, Yang Erpi immediately greeted them, but he didn't take the initiative to speak, it seems that he is still a master who wants to save face.It's gotten to this level, and I just don't want to let go of my domineering senior airs. I'm too lazy to bother with him about these nonsense, I just want to do good things for Uncle Ah Tie.Hurry up and send Yang Erpi and his goods down the mountain.When we enter Yuemiao village, we will have nothing to do with this old thief. At that time, he will be the king of heaven, and I will not answer a word. "Boss Yang, you've prepared the cableway. Are you guys ready?" When Yang Erpi saw that I was talking to him, he immediately went down the steps and put on a fake and kind face: "Thanks to shopkeeper Hu, these little guys are already ready to go down the mountain. I don't know, where is the iron pot head?" ..." "The horse has already passed, and the goods will be shipped soon. Boss Yang, I was in Jiangcheng before, and I was afraid that it would be inconvenient for people to talk too much. You see, there are so many things happening now, and there are no outsiders. Is it convenient for you to disclose a little information? What the hell is going on? I see that the goods you left this time are not ordinary!" Yang Erpi stared suddenly, then calmed down again, and continued to laugh: "It's nothing special, but I was entrusted by someone to deliver some goods. As for the time in Jiangcheng, hahaha, how offended, how much Offended. I was dazzled for a moment, and I didn't recognize shopkeeper Hu." Seeing that he was really unwilling to be honest, I stopped forcing him and asked him to greet the two men under him, handed over the hooks and belts for the ropeway to them, and demonstrated how to use them.Yang Erpi thanked repeatedly, and led the people straight to the mouth of the cliff.Four Eyes asked me if I had found any news, and I said that this old thing is very cunning, and he behaved well when he got a cheap one.Since he didn't want to talk about it, let's stop asking. After passing the cableway, we all parted ways.Even if he transported a box full of old zongzi, he still couldn't touch the uncle. Siyan is used to doing things that involve personal safety by himself. He checked the equipment that we both used up and down many times, and he almost gritted his teeth.In the end, I was very sure that it was absolutely safe.The two of us walked to the mouth of the cliff and found that most of the personnel and horses had been transported to the opposite bank.Yang Erpi repeatedly emphasized that he had to stay in the rear, and he was willing to follow up only after seeing that all the goods had arrived safely on the other side.Siyan and I had no choice but to lead the way and go to the other side to meet them first.However, I am full of doubts about Yang Erpi's weird proposal, and I always feel that he is playing some tricks again.As soon as Siyan and I reached the other side, Uncle Atie caught him firmly. He smiled and said, "Good boy, it's the first time we crossed the mountain road, so we took it easy. I didn't even hear you call, you're a man. You Look at those pustules, they are lying on the ground and dare not move, hahaha." In fact, my calf was also shaking, and I didn't dare to look down all the way.At this moment, seeing Yang Erpi's two fellows with pale faces retching while hugging the big tree, he couldn't help but feel lucky that he had the foresight.Not to mention four eyes, this kid was afraid of losing his glasses, so he was dragged to the other side blind. People say that seeing is blind, so he took out his glasses from his pocket and put them on after he landed. Embarrassed, and asked me what happened. Uncle Ah Tie pulled out the green flag on the side and replaced it with a yellow flag.I asked him what that meant.He said: "The goods are almost all ready, let the finishers over there prepare to collect the cableway." At this time, a whistle sounded from the opposite bank, and the last box of black wooden boxes was speeding down along the two-lane cableway. For some reason, the guy who was originally on the shore did not step forward to catch the box.I yelled that it was not good, and saw that the cargo box rushed to the river bank with a huge inertia and made a loud noise.The horses parked by the side were frightened, and suddenly became restless and bumped around.It is not a trivial matter for a horse to be frightened. When I was in the countryside, I once saw a frenzied adult horse overturn a farmhouse, and the damage was astonishing.Uncle Ah Tie knew how powerful it was, and he shouted: "A team of people go to pick up the goods facing us, and a team of people follow me to chase the horses!" Then he raised his horsewhip high, and it slapped with a frightening sound on the pebble beach. I'm not good at taming horses, so I immediately greeted four eyes and told him to hide aside, and don't get in front of the horses.Then he turned and ran towards the river bank, trying to help the horse breeder take care of the goods that had just fallen.Holding a torch, I waded across the stream and came to the shallows. Because of the impact of the cargo boxes, the shrimp lamps that had been scattered all over the river had been damaged a lot. I could only rely on the light of the torch to find the cargo boxes in the water.When I got closer, I found that the wooden box had been broken into pieces. If it weren't for the hemp rope tied outside, it might have fallen apart.I squatted down, leaned closer to the cargo box, and tried to drag it out of the water, but the thing was dead and heavy, and it was submerged in the water again, so it couldn't move for a while.I looked back at the shore, and the experienced horse breeders were holding up searchlights and whips, pulling up the tripping ropes in twos and twos and starting to surround the mad horses.Four Eyes climbed a tall tree early. Seeing that they couldn't spare their hands to help, I had to find a way to clean up the mess in front of me.I reached into the water and groped. I don't know if it was because of the night or the river itself was cold. As soon as my hand touched the box in the water, I was terribly frozen, and a piercing cold burst from the box. The gap penetrated.I felt something was wrong, so I pressed my face to the surface of the water to see what was in the box.I moved the torch to a place near the water, and bent down to look at it myself. Unfortunately, the slit was too small and too dark to see clearly. I only vaguely felt that the thing inside seemed to move.I hurriedly withdrew my hand and rubbed my eyes.I thought to myself that it might be an illusion caused by the reflection of the river, because I really don't believe that any living thing can survive in such a box.Unwilling to give up, I lifted a corner of the box vigorously, and used my feet to fiddle with the river bed to bring a pile of sand and gravel under the box.In this way, the broken side of the box was temporarily lifted out of the water, so that I could determine whether it was an illusion.This time I directly pulled the rope tied to the corner, and the gap on the surface of the box immediately spread out more than half, and a puff of green smoke rose into the air.I was taken aback and wondered why Yang Erpi started using chemical weapons.He didn't dare to go forward again, covered his mouth and nose with one hand, and pulled the rope with the other, trying to tie the box back.At this moment, I heard a roar behind me, and I hurriedly turned around, only to see Yang Erpi, his face covered in ashes, throwing his gun at me like desperately.I don't know which medicine he took by mistake, and my subordinates didn't dare to be negligent, so they blocked the torch in front of them with a wave of their right hand.Yang Erpi didn't seem to know the pain at all, he pulled me up, I don't know where he got so much strength, he grabbed my hand like a pair of iron tongs, and flung me out with a "swipe".I leaned back, and my back hit the corner of the box heavily. The box that had been smashed to pieces couldn't bear my weight at all. In the blink of an eye, even people and their goods fell into the icy river.Yang Erpi roared: "No!" Then, he jumped up immediately.At that time, my nose and eyes were full of water, and I was extremely depressed. I kindly helped you rescue the goods that fell into the water, but you attacked me instead. If I knew it, I would have burned your pile of broken boxes on fire, which would have saved a lot of trouble.I choked my throat with a sip of cold water and almost drowned on the spot.I thought that Yang Erpi was going to hit me on the spot, but unexpectedly, he just kept picking up the broken wood as if he didn't see me.I crawled out of the water, drenched to the ground, the torches had long since been extinguished, and the people on the shore had quelled the disturbance of the horses, and were running toward us.I coughed for a long time before I spit out the river water in my throat, and I don't know if the box is poisonous.I saw Yang Erpi squatting in the middle of the water, looking devastated, without any killing intent, so I stepped forward and pressed his shoulder.I wiped the water off my face and said angrily, "Alzheimer's disease is happening again? What do you want to do?" Yang Erpi turned his head slowly, the skin on his face bulged like a toad for some reason.His hands were hanging in the water, holding something.I took a closer look and almost cried out: it was a rotten broken arm.
