Chapter 240: The Sun in the Water
Le Yiyang's jump was extraordinary, it was a separation and reunion between life and death. He held the last glimmer of hope, and even if he was unfortunately ended up being broken, he was unwilling to starve to death in the cliff cave. As the saying goes, "If you are poor, you will change; if you change, you will be able to achieve success; if you are the same, you will achieve success." How could he care about whether he could show his strength in the future? He just wanted to escape from this lonely demon cave and stay with his beloved woman as soon as possible.
His feet suddenly flew out of the air and his body fell down immediately. There were thorns everywhere on the cliffs and mountain walls, and these dead branches were gone, making them look even sharper. He protected his head with his hands, and he kept rolling on the cliff.
After a while, the dead trees on the mountain wall gradually became fewer. Le Yiyang let go of his hand a little, but saw that there was nothing in front of him, as if there was no way out. He screamed in surprise, and an unknown premonition hit his heart. He grabbed the stone on the ground hard, but because the downward speed was too fast, the stone was not grasped, and his hands were almost worn off.
Le Yiyang was shocked and grabbed a dead tree on the cliff, his whole body hanging in the air. He was still in shock and looked down at the bottom. He saw clouds and mists, listening carefully to the sound of gurgling water. "Is it a river below?" He couldn't figure it out in his mind. Seeing the dead tree shaking, he felt a little regretful.
He lived on the border since he was a child, and there were all Gobi grasslands and there were not too many lakes and rivers, so he did not learn to swim. If he really fell down this time, he would be afraid that he would not be killed by falling to death, but was drowned by water. Thinking of this, cold sweat emerged from his forehead. "If I had known that such a terrifying scene was under the cliff, I might as well stay in the cliff cave."
As the power of falling gradually increased, the dead tree finally couldn't bear it and broke out from the cliff walls along with its roots. Le Yiyang lost the hostage in his hand and fell toward the cliff suddenly. In a moment, a loud "thump" sound sounded at the bottom of the cliff.
There is indeed a big river under the cliff.
Le Yiyang's whole body was deeply trapped in the water. He had eaten very little in recent days and was diligent in practicing martial arts. The true qi stored in his body was consumed a lot. At this time, his chest and back were greatly impacted. When he was in a hurry to breathe, a lot of water actually entered his mouth and nose. He quickly used his true qi and wanted to discharge the water, but he was helpless.
Since he left his hometown, he had experienced too many threats of death. Fortunately, he had a full hair in his clothes, and finally survived the disaster. He lay on his back on the water, looking around the boundless sky, thinking that he was like a lonely boat, wandering in this surging river, and infinite emotion surged in his heart.
The sun has risen and sleepiness has quietly come. Le Yiyang is exhausted and is completely relaxed in the river. Lying on the water, he falls asleep. "Life and death are life, wealth and honor are in the sky." Instead of dying in despair, it is better to sleep peacefully.
Le Yiyang slept peacefully and even started a dream. In the dream, he saw the person who missed the most. This person was not Ji Yun, not Yelu Zhongying, but his fiancée Xiao Cuixin. "My sister, I haven't seen each other for several months, are you okay?" He moved his lips gently, and then smiled knowingly.
At this moment, Le Yiyang's body seemed to be bitten by something, and he screamed in pain. He opened his eyes and found that there were large pools of blood floating beside him. Two rows of tooth marks appeared on his arm. Without thinking about it, you can know who the blood came from. He was very angry, clenched his fists tightly, and looked forward. He found that a huge crocodile was lying on the water surface ten feet away from him, floating up and down with the water flow. The crocodile's eyes turned white and foamed out of his mouth, as if he had just died.
Le Yiyang was shocked and looked at the crocodile again. He couldn't help but laugh and said, "Brother Crocodile, you want to eat me, but you hurt your life. Isn't it worth the loss?" He didn't know why the crocodile died suddenly, and he thought there was a secret help from the gods.
This crocodile died unfairly. It lurked in a narrow river and has killed no less than fifty people over the years. This time, when it met Le Yiyang, who was invincible with all poisons, it could only admit that it was unlucky and died.
Le Yiyang was stunned alone, but heard someone calling on the shore. He looked up and saw many people waving to him. The shore was more than ten feet away from the middle of the river. He ignored the wounds of his arm and paddled towards the shore with force.
When those people saw him coming ashore, they rushed to pull him up. After Le Yiyang got ashore, he quickly took out the eagle hair from his clothes and threw it on the ground. A moment later, a gray-haired old man came over and said with emotion: "The young man killed the crocodile who did evil for us, and please be bowed by me!"
Although Le Yiyang has been in the world for a long time, he still has not forgotten his etiquette. He quickly helped the old man up and asked in confusion: "I have arrived at the precious land for the first time. I have not had time to say hello to everyone, how dare I receive such a great gift from the old man!" The old man smiled and said, "Young man doesn't have to be modest." He paused for a while, looked at Le Yiyang's tattered clothes, and asked, "I don't know where the young man came from?"
Le Yiyang didn't want to mention the past that had been trapped in the Yadong for several months, but said: "I came from Kaifeng. Old uncle, where is this place and why is it so remote?"
When those people heard the words "Kaifeng", they immediately looked surprised. However, the old man said lightly: "This is the sun of the water, thousands of miles away from Kaifeng. Now Kaifeng is the capital of the Liao people. The people there must have seen it with their own eyes."
Le Yiyang remembered the scene he saw when he returned from Yingzhou south, and couldn't help but sigh softly and said, "Don't be satisfied with everyone, I have indeed seen Khitan soldiers massacre civilians. Khitan soldiers wantonly trampling on the Central Plains will surely arouse the resistance of the people!"
The old man said, "Young hero is right! Since ancient times, he has been a great man and has few helpers. A month ago, King Liu Zhiyuan of Peking had already proclaimed himself emperor in Taiyuan. He was originally a direct descendant of Emperor Ming of the Eastern Han Dynasty, but because his father and grandfather married the Shatuo people, he was mistaken for being a foreigner. Now Liu Zhiyuan founded the country and was called the Great Han Dynasty, intending to expel the Tartars and restore the Han Dynasty!"
As soon as the old man finished speaking, someone echoed: "The patriarch is right. The Han army has gathered in Taiyuan and will cross the Taihang Mountains soon and attack Kaifeng! The Liao people are still dead and are fighting grass valleys everywhere. Not only that, the dog emperor of the Liao Kingdom also ordered the world to ban martial arts. In just three months, thousands of martial arts heroes have died in destiny. The Liao people's desire to destroy me is obvious." Le Yiyang was stunned and his thoughts returned to a few months ago. The poisonous plan offered by Lu Zhicheng was unexpectedly adopted by Yelu Deguang.
When the people saw him frowning and thought he had escaped from Kaifeng, they comforted him: "Young man, don't worry, you can live in the village and make a long-term plan."
Le Yiyang shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness. I still have something to do, so I won't stay for a long time." He had already made up his mind and rushed back to Kaifeng immediately, one to find his fiancée, and the other to settle the score with Lu Zhicheng.
