Chapter 28 (36)
Li Yijie was so angry that he smoked in his orifices. He had no choice but to change the topic and said, "Take the antidote to poison smoke and I will spare you." Cao Zhenyan sneered, "Hmph, it's not on me." Li Yijie tightened his blade and said, "Now, is it there?"
Cao Zhenyan sneered, "If you are not here, you are not here. Do you still think I will lie to you? Even if you kill me and search for the body again, the antidote is not here, it will still be there." Li Yijie said, "So where can I find the antidote?" Cao Zhenyan said, "The palace courtyard! If you have the ability, go and ask the empress in person."
Li Yijie said: "It should be done. Just right, I also want to ask Yun'er what is wrong that cannot be resolved peacefully. But if you dare to wrongly accuse her..." Cao Zhenyan sneered: "No need to say, I am determined to be wronged. Will she still admit it? I must be framed, hum... I didn't expect that Cao's hero will end up injustice to the woman. Unfair, unfair!"
Li Yijie whispered, "What kind of poison is that? Is Shixiang Soft Peel Powder?" Cao Zhenyan sneered, "You also look at us too lightly. Is it true that when the poison comes down, Shixiang Soft Peel Powder always has Shixiang Soft Peel Powder? There is no other poison to use?"
Seeing that Li Yijie couldn't ask anything from him, it would be meaningless to continue the trial. Thinking of his previous relationship with him, he didn't want to kill him. He put down his sword, pushed him, and shouted: "Get out! Don't let me see you and your subordinates commit crimes, otherwise, there will be no mercy to kill you!"
Cao Zhenyan muttered, just like "dare to threaten the imperial court's official position". He waved to his subordinates and everyone followed him in a mighty manner. At this time, there was another "boom" in the cave behind him. Li Yijie felt so sad and shouted: "Slow down!"
Cao Zhenyan turned around and said angrily, "Why, do you regret letting us go again? Do you don't have to count what the leader of the martial arts world said?" Li Yijie said lightly, "What are the benefits of asking your life? I just need to ask your subordinates to save people. Today's matter will be written off." Cao Zhenyan walked to the cave with doubts, looked down, and said, "This place will be buried soon. When you go in, isn't that asking for death?"
Li Yijie said angrily: "Even if you seek death, it is a good thing you did! If you don't let those despicable means, how could my brothers fall into the trap? Your team must be responsible for solving this matter. Could it be that only your soldiers will die, and our people will be defeated? If you don't give me an explanation, this matter cannot be calculated."
Cao Zhenyan said, "Explanation? What do you want?" Li Yijie said, "It's very simple, ask your soldiers to go down to save people, and try to minimize everyone's casualties!" At this time, large pieces of earth and rocks rolled down, and a series of miserable wails came from the palace. The officers and soldiers stood in front of the cave and looked at him, and were already scared. They looked at Cao Zhenyan and Li Yijie with some pleading eyes, begging them to take back Cheng's life.
Li Yijie was unmoved and said loudly: "Whoever commits the evil will have to pay the price. Those are living lives! Think about it, if you are still trapped in the bottom of the house, or your parents, younger siblings, and others are so indifferent to watching the excitement, what would you think? People are complacent! You are not the initiator, and you are on order to do this sin. There is still a possibility of repaying this sin. Don't hesitate anymore, come and take the lead!" He tore off a long line on the lapel, and then asked others to make the decision according to law, tie the lapels into a long belt and hang them into the cave.
The officers and soldiers held the rope head and looked around, saying, "Mr. Li, this is not...no. There are no trees or other things to support. Just relying on a piece of rope, you can't bear any strength..." Li Yijie said, "Stop talking nonsense, there must be a way, nothing is absolutely impossible." But he said it with confidence, but he couldn't think of any good idea in his heart. The sound of large pieces of earth and rock falling made him feel even more upset.
At this time, the heads of several disciples were vaguely visible at the entrance of the cave. One hand was about to climb to the ground, but suddenly a sharp rock rolled down the finger bone. He loosened his hands and fell down. He was still pulling someone beside him, and the two fell down together. Several officers and soldiers guarding the cave stretched out their hands together, slid into the cave, and pulled the man's wrist and lifted it up together. The man got the help, and used his hands and legs to kick them hard between the walls of the cave, and finally they all climbed up.
When the officers and soldiers saw this method, they could not only save people, but also deal with Li Yijie. Suddenly, a group of people rushed to the entrance of the cave to wait. When they saw someone climbing up, they reached out to pull them. Many of them came back and forth, they saved them.
Li Yijie was always worried and stood by. Seeing the righteous disciples being pulled out of the cave and escaping from death, he couldn't help but smile with a relieved smile. After an old man came up panting, there was no movement for a while. He looked around and the smoke and dust aroused when the soil rolled down almost covered his sight. He could no longer hear the cry for help in the cave, but he was still a little relieved. He asked the old man: "Master, are there anyone in the underworld hall?"
The old man wiped the dust on his face and said, "Cough, no!" Li Yijie breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to say, "It's okay!", a disciple who was supporting him next to the old man suddenly said, "No, those who fainted... By the way, they are disciples of the Huangshan Sect, and they are still inside." Li Yijie waved to the group of officers and soldiers and said, "Don't squeeze in together! Go and save people quickly. Even if you faint, we have to save him."
A soldier hesitated for a long time before saying, "Mr. Li, I can't save you!" His words seemed to ignite the fuse, and all the soldiers responded, saying, "The earth blocks fell so badly, and the palace will collapse soon. Now when you go in, you will accompany them to bury them alive." "Mr. Li, this person is fainting, and it's not much different from death. Let them go without pain, that's it."
Someone from the righteous also advised: "Yes, after all, most of the people have escaped safely. For half of the disciples of Huangshan, our righteous path will not be over. Don't worry, the noble body of the leader is important." "Yes, those half of the people are not as important as you, the leader. At worst, you can invite a group of Taoists to recite scriptures and save them."
Suddenly, a yellow-clothed disciple was robbed and begged: "Leader, then...and my brothers are also my own brother. We two are poor families and have never enjoyed any blessings since we were young. After worshiping Huangshan, we at least have enough food and clothing. I worked hard to practice martial arts just to live like a person so that I can support my brother... He has to live, he has to live! Leader, please save him!"
Li Yijie couldn't help but feel a little sad and comforted him, "If I could save me, I would definitely save me." He glared at Lu Qian, who was leisurely watching the show, and said, "It's all your good things!"
Lu Qian smiled and said, "Yes, I knocked them out. How about it? Now I know that I'm doing a good job, right? They are all Liu Mujian's people. I'm taking them with him to guard against you and restrain you. It's so worthless."
Li Yijie whispered: "Just take money, you have to do things for others. They are not the fault." He raised his hand to the officers and soldiers and said, "Has you rescued?" One man said with a bitter face: "The Palace of the Underworld is almost buried, who dares to save it? Lord Li, do you understand their life and death, and you ignore our lives and death?" "Yes, Master Li, we are brothers who fight the country with you..."
Li Yijie's face darkened and said, "Stop all! I'll go down to save them myself!" He then looked at the rusty sword and single sword on his belt, and reached out to hold the rope. Yuan Yi advised, "No, Li Alliance Master, I have never heard of any master who died to save his subordinates since ancient times. You..."
Li Yijie smiled bitterly and said, "You are thinking too seriously. I just went down to save someone. I didn't think I was going to break into the tiger's den alone. No one said I would die. You are sad too early." I was about to jump in, but when I saw the life-threatening slashing around my waist, I couldn't let it go.
He solved it hard, handed it to Yuan Yi, and said, "Young Master Yuan, let me put this life-seeking slash here first. If I can't come back alive, then... let's destroy it." I was afraid that if I drag it down, my fear would double. If I was encouraged by everyone, I was afraid that I would really give up the idea of saving people. In order to avoid regret, I would not leave any further retreat for myself and jumped down.
Yuan Yi took the life-seeking slash from his hand, was slightly stunned and said, "President Li, you are not afraid..." Before he could finish speaking, Li Yijie's head was covered by rocks and smoke, and he couldn't see it clearly.
As soon as Li Yijie jumped into the underworld, his body was still in mid-air, and immediately felt the overwhelming dark pressure coming towards him. The long-lost fear rose again. When his feet stepped onto the ground, the feeling became stronger and stronger, as if the darkness could swallow him.
After barely calming down, he shook the fire and saw dead bodies lying on the ground. If he hadn't known that they were not fatal and were just unconscious, he would have thought they were dead. Thinking of this, he tried hard to avoid the stones above his head, moved to the unconscious person, put one hand on his neck, and half supported him to walk towards the hanging "rope".
He was overdrawn in his physical strength and his internal strength dropped significantly. He thought he was unable to imitate Yuan Yi, and was still waiting for a while, so he pulled the rope over the rope, tied it tightly, and then raised his hand to the top of the rope and pulled it, hoping that the onlookers on the top would understand the meaning. If he wanted to shout loudly, he would lose strength no matter what.
Fortunately, after pulling it a few times, the rope swayed gently. I felt secretly happy and let go of my hands. I watched the man's body slowly lift up, rising higher and higher until he disappeared from sight. Not long after, the rope hangs down again.
Li Yijie originally thought about his own strength and was not sure whether he could save the unconscious disciples. Now he has found a smooth road and is sincerely relieved. He ran around the hall, carrying the injured one by one, and then lifted the rope. The sweat on his head flowed into a stream, but he was not tired because he thought of saving one more person's life.
After being busy for some time, I looked around and finally saw the person lying down again. As soon as my heart fell to the ground, I felt a huge fatigue coming. He was so tired that he wanted to sleep for a few days. His eyelids were getting heavier and heavier. The sound of falling rocks around him was beyond his reach. Instead, it was thick smoke and dust blocking his vision, which added to his sleepiness.
Just as I was about to obey my thoughts, I suddenly heard a noise above my head, and a voice shouted: "Leader Li, this ancient tomb is about to collapse, come out quickly!" Another female shouted: "Senior brother, senior brother, come up!" This was the voice of Nangong Xue in a trance.
Li Yijie's mind was as if a ray of light shot into the chaos, and his consciousness suddenly woke up. He saw that the palace was filled with falling rocks, almost no place to stand, and the tomb wall was shaking. His heart jumped suddenly, and the rope happened to be in front of him. His hands were reacting quickly. He grabbed it and wrapped it around his waist, pulled the rope, and shouted: "Hey, it's coming up!" His voice was hoarse, and it was already low in the ancient tomb, let alone hope to let Nangong Xue and the others hear it, so he could only use the rope to pull it.
After a moment, the rope immediately rose up, just like he had watched someone hanging on the other person countless times just now. Li Yijie knew that he would return safely, and Nangong Xue would definitely hold him and cry, almost feeling the fullness in her arms. She held the rope tightly with both hands, just like she opened her arms and hugged the junior sister, and she rushed to the wall with her heels and tried her best to climb. She suddenly thought to herself: "If Yun'er was here at this time, would she care about my safety?"
