After Wu Yonglin's skillful scalpel technique, the fat fish that jumped out of the warm pool made everyone who was already hungry in their stomachs jealous of the neatly arranged fish dishes like crystals. After a try, it was very delicious. After everyone swallowed it, the strength they had lost in their bodies and the courage to continue moving forward gradually recovered.

"Boss, how far is it in front?"

Zhang Laohan didn't say anything, but Lao Si, who was originally responsible for calculating the distance from the arrival, spoke: "When we first came, we walked no less than nine thousand steps. If this was the middle section of the Jiuqu Cave, then we still had at least nine thousand steps to go."

Old Zhang nodded in praise, as if he had agreed, but he seemed to suddenly understand something, and stood up with his arms tremblingly, blushing with anxiety, saying, "Sir, I can leave, your affairs cannot be delayed."

The third brother's arm was fixed and after applying plaster, it was fine. Although Zhang Laohan saved his life from the water, after this battle, his pale face looked like he had a serious illness. He was already thin and seemed to be more and more single, and he barely asked him to continue to follow the road, for fear of his life. Wu Yonglin's original plan was to let the fourth brother stay and take care of the eldest brother and the third brother. After the other seven people continued to explore the exit, he would come back to pick them up. After all, there was food and drink here in Wentan, which would be of great benefit to the injuries of the two. Now Zhang Laohan proposed it directly, and Wu Yonglin knew that the previous plan had been overturned.

"Then we continue to rush, and we will take turns to carry it. The fourth and fifth brothers must keep pace with the third brothers and take care of one or two at any time."

"No, I can leave." Old Zhang refused with a slightest arms.

Even if you can leave, you will not be able to maintain a normal speed, which will inevitably drag everyone down. And you must take every step forward and prevent him from falling again or falling. Therefore, Wu Yonglin firmly advocated that he would still carry him on his back.

After everyone jumped into the cold pool, the wind lamps on their bodies were basically left in place. As for one or two of them who were carried into the cold pool, they had already been buried at the bottom of the pond and disappeared. Fortunately, Liang Hongying was careful and found the wind lamp thrown by Wu Yonglin in the pile of rocks blocking the retreat. Except for the wicks that were extinguished, everything was preserved intact. This can be said to be a great blessing in disgrace. When the fourth brother took out the flint and ignited the wind lamp with the dry moss in the cave, everyone was energetic. If there was no light source illuminating the road ahead, it would be a fool to continue to break through the Jiuqu Cave in a dark and bright way.

After everything was ready for food, water, light source, etc., Wu Yonglin ordered everyone to continue the journey. Zhang Laohan was stubborn in the end and had to be carried forward by others in turn. However, he not only increased the burden on everyone, but was useless. First of all, the only lamp in his hand was very effective, because the high light shone far, everyone's vision was wider, and it was more convenient to greet him. Secondly, he could still take on the task of a guide and promptly guided and reminded him, so the road in the second half was smoother than the first half.

However, after a long journey, the energy was consumed a lot, so compared with the first half of the road, Wu Yonglin ordered a rest when he was about two thousand steps away from the cave.

Zhang Laohan's physical strength had recovered a lot at this time. He discussed with Wu Yonglin with high spirits about the action plan before and after leaving the cave, and advocated sending someone to investigate first.

"Yes!" Wu Yonglin said, "I also have this idea..."

He didn't say anything further, thinking in his heart that it would be better to go by himself instead of sending others. But he was too tired and was slacking off to engage in the investigation, afraid that the investigation would not be careful enough, so he was still hesitating.

Zhang Laohan had a roughly the same idea as him, but the difference was that he was eager to try and had a strong ambition, but he was not strong enough. "We went to see it." He said, "I will discuss it on the spot, and everyone will take the next step as soon as they get out of the hole."

Encouraged by this, Wu Yonglin suddenly felt excited, but he couldn't help but ask: "Can you do it?"

"There is nothing wrong. There is only such a short distance in total, and I can climb it."

When Wu Yonglin told the rest of the people to have a meal and standby, he repeatedly warned: Don't move around, just rest on the spot. When he was about to continue walking with Zhang Laohan on his back, a beautiful lightning shot hit Wu Yonglin's back, and the corner of his clothes was caught from behind.

"Didn't you say that you can rest on the spot and replenish your energy."

"I'm afraid of the dark."

Wu Yonglin suddenly had a headache. Women were afraid of darkness and thunder. It seemed that they were all by nature, otherwise they would not have been taken advantage of by smart men. I heard that many girls’ first kisses were taken away in the dark.

"Then follow." After Wu Yonglin said, the atmosphere around him became much hotter. As for Liang Hongying's fear of the truth and which was true or false, he really didn't have too much time to worry about it. The three of them took a break and were about to stop and continue to look for an exit.

The calculation was two thousand steps, but in fact it was far more than this number. When counting four thousand steps, there was no sign of leaving the hole. Wu Yonglin couldn't help but be confused. Just as he was about to ask, he suddenly found a faint white light. He turned a corner and suddenly became clear. The moonlight was as silver as it was shot into the hole. Wu Yonglin and Liang Hongying, who followed closely, both stood at the same time.

After Wu Yonglin put down Zhang Laohan on his body, he looked up and saw that the entrance of the cave was above a half-person height. When he touched it with his hands, there was a very smooth and unclimbable stone wall below the entrance. If it was to be unobstructed, he had to use stones to make seven or eight steps. Of course, it was impossible to do this at this time. Cutting those steps would take time and effort, and it would not be worth the effort. Wu Yonglin looked at Zhang Laohan and asked, "How did you get up at the beginning?"

"It's sad to say that when I came here with so many hardships, I couldn't get up no matter what, so I had to turn around. The second time I came with one of my nephews, but I went up. Then I knew that the cave was a dangerous slope. My nephew accidentally fell down and fell into the mountain stream, and his body was never found."

Unexpectedly, he had such a sad past. Wu Yonglin was also sad for him. Looking at the other party's hunched figure, he really didn't know what to say to comfort him, so he could only stare blankly without saying a word.

"Why did you drill the Nine-Curve holes with great difficulty?"

"We have been in chaos over the years, and we are already short of food and clothing, and we have to take the risk of going to this mountain to find iron lumps."

Wu Yonglin didn't understand what the iron lamb is, and he didn't ask too much. He guessed that Zhang Laohan and his nephew took the risk, and the iron lamb could probably be used for money.

"When we go out, go back and call on everyone to open up here together to facilitate everyone." Wu Yonglin said in a very earnest voice, "I will help you fulfill your wish no matter what. Don't worry."

"The emperor will live up to the hard work!" Zhang Laohan said with relief: "Let's go up! I'll go up first. Please squat down."

Zhang Laohan might have a support in his heart, his face was radiant, and his sorrow disappeared, and he immediately seemed to have become a different person. As he said that, he untied a long rope with a hook from his waist and placed it on the ground. Wu Yonglin understood his method at a glance, and squatted down happily. When Zhang Laohan stepped on his shoulders, he stood up slowly with the help of Liang Hongying. So Zhang Laohan stretched out the hole halfway out of the hole, supported his hands and shrank his feet. When Wu Yonglin looked up, the person had already come out of the hole, and then picked up the hook rope on the ground, and saw it and threw it up.

With the rope in hand, Zhang Laohan inserted the hook into the old pine tree beside him, picked up a stone, smashed it hard a few times, then slammed the rope around the tree twice, and then threw the other end into the hole. Wu Yonglin pulled the rope with both hands, supported the wall with his feet, and rose up. When he was about to exit the hole, Zhang Laohan warned: "Don't let go of the rope when you exit the hole, it is a dangerous slope."

When I went out, I found that it was a dangerous slope. The only thing I leaned against was the old pine beside me who was hugging. Wu Yonglin walked over carefully, climbed the tree body, found a stable foothold, and then raised his eyes to observe the situation around him.

At first glance, I saw the continuous lights staggered from the foot of the mountain to the back of the mountain. As for looking up, except for the lonely stars, there are only silent and towering mountains around me. When I turned around, I saw the slopes endless and there was no place to rest. When I looked up, I saw the trees lush, and it seemed like I could find a flat place.

"What's going on outside? You guys are talking."

Only then did Wu Yonglin remember Liang Hongying who was still thrown in the hole by the two of them. When she pulled her up with a rope, the slope where there was no one standing was getting more crowded.

Due to a moment of fatigue, Zhang Laohan, who had already been gasping for a while, suddenly pulled Wu Yonglin's clothes and pointed upwards and said, "There is a slope above, all of them are pine and cypress, and there are iron lump trees. It is best to hide people there."

When Wu Yonglin heard this, he was overjoyed and also figured out that the iron lump was probably the entrance, so he asked anxiously: "Where is the road?"

"Here," Zhang Laohan pointed, "It's too much trouble and time consuming to circle around the dangerous slope."

"Yes, the sky is important, I'll bring them." Wu Yonglin said, "You two are here to pick you up."

So Wu Yonglin still went downstairs and left Liang Hongying to take care of Zhang Laohan. At this time, there was only one person walking alone in a cave like a tomb, excited and afraid, and his inner emotions were fluctuating and unstable. After walking more than a thousand steps, he suddenly became alert. There were many missteps in the cave. If he went wrong, he could find the original path, which would have been a big mistake. Therefore, he calmed down and carefully identified it. Fortunately, he did not dare to think about it anymore. He focused his mind and walked back to his original place smoothly.

On the way, Wu Yonglin had already thought about it. First, we should report the good news and inspire morale: "The enemy is on the mountainside, and you can see clearly at a glance. If we use strategies to dig their dam and let the water leak out of the mountain, it will not only cause chaos in their camps, but also eliminate the opponent's army once and for all. At that time, we will cooperate with Lao Han below the mountain, and this battle will be said to be a sure victory."

Sure enough, when he heard this, from the second to the eighth, he was full of energy and was ready to start a surprise attack immediately.

When the group arrived at the entrance of the cave, except for Zhang Laohan who was leaning steadily on the tree, there was no trace of Liang Hongying's shadow. Just as Wu Yonglin was in a daze, the ancient cypress above suddenly hanged down a rope, and a black squid appeared not far away. Needless to say, it must be Liang Hongying.

"Miss Ying is not as good as a man, but she is even more capable. She just climbed up like a monkey, which really made the old man sweat." Zhang Laohan's seemingly light sentence was enough to make Wu Yonglin scared for a while. It took Wu Yonglin a lot of effort to climb up along the rope. It can be imagined how difficult it was for Liang Hongying to climb up.

Wu Yonglin was about to say a few serious words to Liang Hongying, who was trying to take risks, but the other party smiled and handed over a few green fruits with numb all over his body. Wu Yonglin, who was bitter, had to vent his quarrels on his hands on the two fruits in his hands. However, after sip, not only Liang Hongying on the side exclaimed, but also made Wu Yonglin almost collapse his front teeth, and his mouth was even more numb, bitter, astringent, and a variety of flavors, which made him feel like he was dying.

"This...is...what...you just take...this thing...comfort me." Wu Yonglin stuttered, his mouth full of wind, his spirit just now swept away, and he instantly seemed to have become a different person. It seemed that these two green fruits just now had caused him full of blood damage.

Just as he was about to throw the two fruits in his hand, Zhang Laohan, who had just climbed up, slashed his palm from Wu Yonglin's hand as if he had seen a treasure. He bent down and carefully peeled off the outer skin of the green fruit with a stone knife. When Zhang Laohan's hands were covered with black hands, he smashed the iron bumps in his mouth with stones, revealing the flesh like a dry brain flower inside, it made Wu Yonglin laugh and cry. It turned out that the iron bumps in Zhang Laohan's mouth were walnuts from later generations, and its benefits were self-evident.

When walnuts are picked from the tree, there is a layer of green peel with pockmarks outside the hard shell. Careful people will find that the vendor selling raw walnuts will wear a pair or a glove to peel off the peel, otherwise the hands will be black and the thing will be difficult to wash off. Some people are even allergic to that thing, which shows that good things have several layers of protective layers that are deterring to disguise.

In Wentan, everyone had already subsidized enough sleep. Wu Yonglin had carefully calculated the time to arrive at the entrance of the cave. After everyone climbed up, it was already five o'clock. The energetic people seemed to have nothing to do except open their eyes and wait for dawn. After eating too much raw fish, they were inevitably bored, and they were full of fishy smell. The fresh walnuts were in the mouth, and the smell of teeth flowed, relieved the smell of smell, and exclaimed, and the group immediately rushed up to the walnut tree full of fruits like monkeys and began to smash the fruit with stones.

"Is this thing really edible?" Liang Hongying may have seen this thing for the first time, so she was reluctant to put her mouth at the strange-shaped flesh in her hand.

"A woman who is pregnant with a child eats fresh walnuts, which is very beneficial. This thing nourishes the brain." Seeing Liang Hongying's face getting redder and redder, Wu Yonglin hurriedly changed the topic: "When the matter is here, we will drag a few cars back. After Ping'er eats this, she will definitely be among the people in the future."

"real?"

"When did I cheat you? It's just that when the child is in its infancy, it's best to use it to nourish the brain."

Liang Hongyingmu was stunned for a few seconds. When she understood the meaning of Wu Yonglin's words, she was already ashamed as a spring-covered crabapple flower. Looking at Wu Yonglin with a smirk and even began to become more and more irregular, she immediately ran away like a frightened magpie. Before leaving, she threw a harsh sentence: "When you get the ones in your family, you agree to treat Ping'er as your own and marry me through the eight-carrying sedan chair. You can do whatever you want to do then."
