After returning to Su Xueling, Ye Ming said with uncontrollable excitement: "Sister Ling, we are saved! I found a way out in the upper reaches of the river. Maybe I can escape from the pursuit of those killers."
Afterwards, he simply told Su Xueling how he had just discovered a cave through the "skylight" and found the entrance to the cave by the pool.
When Su Xueling heard that he had found a cave where he could escape, she showed excitement on her face. Just as she was about to get up, Ye Ming waved her hand and said, "You have to take a rest first. I have to dismantle this single-plank bridge. At least I can
Slow down the pursuit of those killers and give us enough time to escape."
Su Xueling asked: "Did Gong Pengju's people really catch up?"
Ye Ming nodded and said, "I just climbed up a big rock and observed the path we came up on, and found that there were a dozen killers walking halfway up the mountain at a relatively fast speed. I estimate that they will be able to catch up in another forty to fifty minutes.
Come here. I will remove the single-plank bridge now. The river bank on that side is very steep and it is impossible to cross the river. He
If they want to come after us, they will have no choice but to build a new bridge. But I guess they won't think that there is a bridge here, so they won't bring any logging and bridge-building tools. It will be very difficult to build the bridge.
It will take a while, and even if they finally build the bridge, we will be far away by then."
As he spoke, he walked to the single-plank bridge, bent down and lifted one end of the bridge, then rotated 45° to the left to make the single-plank bridge fly into the air. Then he let go of his hand, and the huge log immediately fell diagonally into the river bed.
Finally, it suddenly fell into the water, causing a large splash.
After destroying the single-plank bridge, Ye Ming simply carried Su Xueling on his back again and climbed more than a thousand meters along the gentle slope to the northwest along the river bed to reach the pool under the waterfall.
After putting Su Xueling down, Ye Ming said wisely: "Sister Ling, I have to go up and along the cliff to the northwest for a few hundred meters, leaving some trampling marks, so that the killers who are chasing us will mistakenly think that we are going to Bo."
If the northwest side of Kashan escaped, they would keep chasing us and not expect us to escape from the waterhole."
Su Xueling asked a little doubtfully: "If you can find the escape cave, can those killers also find it? I have a sprained ankle now and I run slowly. If they know that there is such a cave, they will probably catch up with us."
"
Ye Ming shook his head and said: "This is impossible. The reason why I discovered the cave just now was because I stood on the big rock and first saw the 'skylight' above the cave. Then I looked down from the skylight and found that there was something inside.
An underground river, it is speculated that this cave is connected with the east
The upper reaches of the Tahe River figured it out, so we found this pool. Those killers were chasing us in a hurry. They couldn't have imagined that there was a cave under the mountain, let alone guessed that the entrance of the cave was in this pool, so they couldn't find it.
of our whereabouts.”
After explaining, Ye Ming asked Su Xueling to wait by the pool, and he continued walking a few hundred meters northwest, deliberately trampling the weeds and shrubs along the way, and then turned back the same way, taking Su Xueling lightly.
They went underground to the pool, and every few steps they went back to pick up the trampled weeds and try to restore them to their original state, so as not to let the killers notice that they had gone down to the pool.
Afterwards, Ye Ming took off his shoes and socks again and asked Su Xueling to hold them for him. Then he carried Su Xueling on his back and walked through the water to the slanted hole embedded in the stone wall on the east side of the pool. He first raised his legs and dipped into the water to test the depth.
Then he stepped in carefully and started walking down a slope.
After walking about two hundred meters, a cave hall suddenly opened up in front of the two people. At the top of this hall, there was a circular hole, which was the "skylight" that Ye Ming just saw. The light outside
The light shines in from the skylight, illuminating the stalactites in the cave hall and some rocks on the underground river.
Ye Ming carefully carried Su Xueling down to the cave hall, then put Su Xueling down, put on her shoes and socks, and helped Su Xueling walk along the bank of the underground river in the southeast direction. After walking a few hundred meters, the cave collapsed again.
In the darkness, Ye Ming asked Su Xueling to turn on her phone and use the light from the phone screen to continue walking.
Fortunately, the battery of Li Xiaoqin's mobile phone is very durable, and it was fully charged when Su Xueling took it over, so the battery of the mobile phone still has 30% power. As long as it is used sparingly, it is estimated that it should be no problem to get out of this cave...
After walking for about two kilometers, Ye Ming judged from the turning angle of the cave: this cave must cross Yinxiang Peak. If you keep walking forward, you can pass through the entire Yinxiang Peak and reach Meilan Town or Xinxiang.
Guobang's control area...
Because escape was in sight, both Ye Ming and Su Xueling felt full of strength. Although Su Xueling was injured, Ye Ming's medicine had taken effect and the pain in the ankle was no longer so painful. With Ye Ming's help, the two of them
We walked very fast, only taking occasional breaks along the way, and it took us about three hours to reach the end of the cave.
It was already 10:30 in the morning. Ye Ming took the lead to walk to the entrance of the cave and looked outside. Just as he expected, it was indeed a cliff. The water in the underground river formed a waterfall here, pouring into the cave below.
Inside the Wensa River - This Wensa River is the largest river in the Golden Triangle area. It runs east-west. The Dongta River and the Xita River are both tributaries of this river.
During the last inspection at Shi Xin's furniture company, Ye Ming heard his introduction: The Wensa River originates from the western part of the country, and crosses most of the country from west to east, with many tributaries along the way. This river starts from Meilan
The northern part of the town is bypassed and is the main water source of Meilan Town.
So, he stood on the edge of the waterfall, raised his eyes and looked south. Sure enough, he saw some tall buildings about two kilometers to the south, which was the Meilan Town he saw from Shi Xin's logging camp.
Look.
At this point, Ye Ming concluded that he and Su Xueling were out of danger. The place where he stood now was already the territory of Xinguo State, maybe near Shi Xin's logging camp.
After judging his location, Ye Ming immediately moved his eyes to both sides of the waterfall, trying to find a way down. Soon, he discovered that there were several rattans on the left side of the waterfall, hanging down to Wensa below.
On the surface of the river, if these rattans are connected together, they should be able to bear the weight of himself and Su Xueling.
So, he immediately grabbed the two canes and pulled them hard a few times. He felt that the canes were very flexible and durable, and he felt more relieved. He turned to Su Xueling and said: "Sister Ling, get on my back. I'll hold you tight later."
Hold my neck tightly, and I will take you to climb down the rattan from here. Don’t be afraid, my hands are very strong and I won’t miss. Besides, even if we miss, we will only fall into
I know how to swim in the river and can rescue you ashore."
