After Xiao Jingyun called Chen Xiaobei over, he expressed his intention to go down the mountain.
"Your Highness, you can go down the mountain, but I have never walked this road before. We can only cross the river by feeling for stones. How long will it take to get down? I can't tell."
Xiao Jingyun took this very lightly. He smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, as long as we can get down the mountain, it doesn't matter if we have one more day or one less day."
With Jamel Xiao's promise, Chen Xiaobei felt relieved.
At this time, Liu Rumei spoke, "Your Highness, what should we do with the people guarding the bridge?"
Jamel Xiao did not reply directly, but turned to look at Chen Xiaobei.
Chen Xiaobei thought for a moment and said, "Your Highness, we might as well let them hold on for two days and then follow our trail to catch up."
Chen Xiaobei said that two days was a conservative estimate. He walked inside the Grand Canyon for three days before climbing up.
Therefore, even if the Lotus Leader opposite followed the trail and left in two days, she would still be in the canyon and would not take the next step.
Therefore, Ma Biao and the others were relatively safe for two days.
After the discussion was decided, Chen Xiaobei led everyone and started walking down the mountain. Brothers Chen Dayong and Chen Daqiang walked at the front. After all, they were considered authentic mountain people and had relatively more experience in life in the mountains.
What surprised Chen Xiaobei was that the road here was much easier to walk than the road up the mountain. There were not many side roads, and you could even see a road winding forward at a glance.
We walked until dark in one breath without encountering any detours.
In the evening, we found a small forest to stop and have a rest and eat. Everyone was talking and laughing, but Chen Xiaobei felt that something was wrong.
I walked down the mountain very quickly today. From Longyan to dark, I walked at least more than 30 miles. Normally, I would have left the mountains, but there was almost no trace of human activity around here.
This is strange.
Just as I was thinking about it, someone suddenly exclaimed, "Oh, it's raining."
Everyone immediately got busy. Fortunately, Liu Rumei did a very careful job. He brought an oilcloth and tied the wide oilcloth between several trees. Everyone squeezed together and could avoid the pain of the rain. However,
In this case, we can't light a campfire and can only eat something cold.
An hour passed in the blink of an eye, but instead of stopping, the rain became heavier and heavier.
Chen Xiaobei thought of Cui Yong's words again. Who said it wouldn't rain in Qingniu Mountain after autumn? There have been two heavy rains in the past few days.
After going back, I have to go find Cui Yong and talk to him properly.
With so many people crowded together, it was natural that they could not rest well. It was not until the sky dimmed and the rain finally stopped that everyone quickly separated, took a short rest and then started on the road.
After walking about ten miles further, Chen Dayong, who was scouting the road ahead, ran back.
"Xiaobei is a long mile away, but there is a river in front of us that we can't cross."
Under the leadership of Chen Dayong, we quickly arrived at the river.
The river surface is not very wide, about three to four feet, but the current is very fast. Think about it, it rained almost all night last night, and this is when the river water will surge.
Then I followed upstream and downstream to find a section without any artificial traces.
In other words, even if the river doesn't surge, there won't be any bridges.
Looking at the rapid water flow, Chen Xiaobei felt a sense of awe in his heart. He said to Xiao Jingyun, "Your Highness, the current is too fast. Let's wait and see the water recede before crossing the river."
Xiao Jingyun obeyed Chen Xiaobei without saying a word, but he also had absolute trust.
Since Chen Xiaobei said to wait, he naturally agreed.
Before Xiao Jingyun could speak, Huang Ying over there suddenly spoke.
Following Huang Ying all the way, she had no sense of presence at all.
Even all day long, I couldn't speak a few words.
For a time, Liu Rumei suspected that Huang Ying and Shen Ziyan were just here to make soy sauce.
Huang Ying smiled and said to Chen Xiaobei, "Brother Xiaobei is just crossing the river. What are you waiting for?"
"Find me some pieces of wood, and Sister Ziyan and I will take care of it for you."
When Chen Xiaobei heard this, he shook his head repeatedly, "No, Sister Huang Ying is not showing off because the water is flowing so fast."
Zi Yan next to him also laughed, "It's okay, it's okay, just listen to Huang Ying and get some pieces of wood."
"Then tell me first, how do you two plan to cross the river?" Chen Xiaobei was curious at that time. Of course, he wanted to understand the situation and judge whether he could cross the river.
Huang Ying looked indifferent, "You throw the wood into the river, and I'll make sure it reaches the other side."
"It's that simple."
Saying this is the same as not saying it.
But seeing that Huang Ying's words were categorical and not a joke, Chen Xiaowei had no choice but to call someone to chop some wood from the woods nearby.
At the same time, according to Shen Ziyan's arrangement, Chen Xiaobei found two strings and tied them to Shen Ziyan and Huang Ying's waists.
According to Huang Ying's request, these pieces of wood are only as thick as a human arm, and each piece is no more than three feet long.
Huang Ying took these pieces of wood in her hands and weighed them, smiled, and looked at Shen Ziyan behind her.
"Sister, please follow me."
Shen Ziyan smiled and nodded.
"Don't worry, when did you fall behind?"
Huang Ying smiled slightly, came to the river, and threw a piece of wood into the water.
Then Huang Ying's body soared into the sky, as the name suggests, she was like a nimble yellow warbler.
Huang Ying's body flew towards this piece of wood, and when she was almost touching it, her toes touched the wood, and then Huang Ying's body rose into the air again.
Almost at the same time, Huang Ying flicked her hand and threw the second piece of wood into the water more than a foot away in front.
The oriole drew a beautiful arc in the air and landed on the second piece of wood.
Just as Huang Ying left the first section of wood, Zi Yan also moved. Zi Yan's movement was almost the same as that of Huang Ying, and she also fell towards the first section of wood.
When the oriole lands on the second section of wood, the purple smoke falls just right on the first section. By analogy, when the oriole lands on the third section of wood, the purple smoke falls on the second section.
In a matter of seconds, in a blink of an eye, the two of them had already crossed the several-foot-wide river and were standing on the other side.
Seeing the wonderful performance of the two people, everyone at the scene was silent for a while.
Jamel Xiao was the first to come to his senses and began to applaud.
"good."
Immediately afterwards, everyone came to their senses and kept cheering.
Liu Rumei was stunned.
She thought that Qinggong was good, but compared with these two girls, Liu Rumei was not sure of winning.
More importantly, Liu Rumei lacks the courage and courage.
She believed that if she had been given a few pieces of wood, she would not have dared to step into the rushing river.
Even more stunned was Chen Xiaobei, who never expected that Huang Ying and Shen Ziyan had such peerless martial arts.
Huang Ying and Shen Ziyan, who were standing on the other side, seemed very calm. They waved to everyone, then took the ropes from their bodies and tied them to the stone next to them.
