MTL - My Stepmother is Soft and Charming-Chapter 629 Valley of Fire
The words of the fourth aunt stimulated Gu Shaoyu and everyone present.
that is!
They are all people who have died once anyway, so even if they find a pile of bones, at least they are the real body of Gu Jiu, and taking him back will allow him to rest in peace.
But if they can find Gu Jiu alive, then they will be grateful to themselves for not giving up today.
So, no one took a rest, and began to search carefully around the luminous jade pendant within a radius of 100 meters.
From night to day, and from day to night.
After searching for almost seven days, they actually followed the traces of dead branches and leaves and found the entrance to a cave they had never seen before. It was so dark inside that no one knew whether there would be any wild beasts.
For example, a poisonous snake or something.
Ni Yang took out some realgar powder and poison-proof pills and distributed them. These things can save lives in critical moments.
Zheng Deli had been looking for clues with his head down every day, and he couldn't hold himself back for a long time. So he was more happy to see this cave than anything else, and he immediately swung his hammers and said.
"General, let me go explore the road. No matter what is in this cave, I will beat him to death!"
"Don't be careless. You and Ni Yang go together and be careful."
"OK!"
After receiving the order, Zheng Deli couldn't hold back anymore, so he shouted and led the people to rush in. Seeing this, Ni Yang followed closely, and soon, the group of people disappeared.
They listened carefully outside. There was some movement at first, but after a while the movement disappeared, leaving only silence.
One hour passed, and two hours passed. Seeing that there was no way in or out of the cave, the fourth aunt became anxious.
“They are not in danger inside, right? Shaoyu, let’s go in and take a look?”
Gu Shaoyu stood there with his hands behind his hands, frowning slightly. It shouldn't be. Zheng Deli and Ni Yang are both very capable. There is no reason why they didn't respond for so long.
So, after being silent for a while, he said to the fourth old lady.
“Fourth Aunt is waiting for me here. I’ll go check it out first. If there’s no news after half an hour, you can go back the same way and don’t take any more risks!”
"What are you talking nonsense about? I will go if you want to go! There are so many people in the family and so many things to do. If you have any trouble, how can I explain it to them! I have already earned enough by the time I live to this age. It’s my son, I’ll go find him and he’ll be rewarded! Don’t argue with me, you just wait here, if you don’t see us coming out after half an hour, go back and think about it later!”
"Fourth Aunt! That is also my ninth brother. How can I let you take risks like this?"
"Then can I let you go? Shaoyu! Listen to me!"
The two of them were arguing endlessly and before they could reach a conclusion, they saw a few people walking out. Zheng Deli looked at them in confusion and then asked.
“What are the general and the old lady arguing about?”
"You are back? Are you okay?"
Seeing Zheng Deli and others, everyone immediately stepped forward to greet him and asked him anxiously. Zheng Deli said calmly.
"This cave looks intimidating, but in fact it is a different kind of cave. Ni Yang is waiting at the entrance of the cave on the other side. There is a dense forest there, but you can hear the sound of the stream. Maybe there is someone there!"
“Seriously?”
"Don't worry, madam, when will I, Old Zheng, tell lies!" The fourth aunt was very excited, but because she had to take care of Gu Shaoyu, she suppressed her energy and hurried towards the entrance of the cave.
This is an opportunity they have been looking for for a long time, so naturally they cannot let it go.
Gu Shaoyu followed closely, and the remaining guards also followed into the cave.
The cave is dark, but there are torches lighting up the road. Although it is a little scary, it is not bad. There is the smell of realgar powder all the way, so you can occasionally hear some small sounds, but no beasts or poisonous insects are approaching.
After walking for a long time, just when everyone felt a little panicked, suddenly there was a light ahead. Just a point, and the fourth aunt could no longer control her emotions and ran towards the light. And go.
Soon, the group of people came out of the cave.
Gu Shaoyu looked back and saw that there were some marks of knife and ax cuts on the cave, so it must be man-made. But why did such a long cave appear in Qiuhua Mountain?
The doubts in his heart had not yet been answered, and soon a soldier beside him exclaimed in a low voice.
“General, this is not Qiuhua Mountain, it should be Fire Valley. Look, this is the Fire Flower that only exists in Fire Valley!”
The place where the soldier pointed his finger was indeed red.
This Fire Valley is a natural chasm, and almost no one has ever gone down to the bottom of the valley. It was only heard that the Fire Flowers bloomed very brightly, and this became known to the world.
However, this fire flower has no effect and is useless except for its beauty. Therefore, no one will risk their lives to come down here, so it has become an isolated place.
This cave actually leads to the Valley of Fire, so the idea quickly arose in Gu Shaoyu's mind.
I think there must be people living at the bottom of the valley, and this cave is their way to the outside.
Therefore, the idea that Gu Jiu was still alive in my mind became stronger, so I immediately gave the order.
"First find the stream, and then divide the troops into two teams, one team facing up and one team facing down. When the scorching sun is high, turn back to the starting point of the stream."
“As commanded!”
It is certainly not difficult for a person to live in the woods.
But if a group of people want to live in the forest, then water source is the most important thing. Gu Shaoyu thinks that those people are likely to live by water, so finding a stream is the most direct way.
There were many soldiers with amazing ears in the army, so they could hear the sound while lying on the ground. So without much trouble, a slightly wide stream appeared in front of them.
The bottom is so clear that you can see live fish swimming in the water.
It's just not deep, at most it's just above the knees, and there are small rocks everywhere. Seeing these, everyone is excited to find the result soon.
So the troops were divided into two teams, Gu Shaoyu and Zheng Deli's team, Fourth Aunt, Li Zhu and Ni Yang's team, and they took action separately.
Walking up the stream, after walking for about a stick of incense, I saw an open land, and then there were dense trees. It seemed that there was no way to go.
Zheng Deli stretched his muscles and then said.
“General, shall we continue to go into the woods?”
This stream has a direction, but the forest does not. If you want to go in, you need to have a direction.
But Gu Shaoyu didn't answer his words. He squatted down by the stream and looked at it carefully.
Those big stones were extremely smooth, and it looked like they had been polished and used frequently.
