Feng Yu Jiu Tian Vol 4 Chapter 4
The two people soon fell into a deep sleep.
Unexpectedly, before dawn, Suddenly there are screaming burst in the air. Rong tian the most vigilant, hurriedly jump up from the bed, holding the sword standing in front of Feng Ming, asked:" What happened?"
Rong Hu rushed in from the curtain, the calm face slightly showed anxiety, knelt and replied:" Great King, Li Kingdom"s troops suddenly attacked, now the distance from Earth moon tribe"s camp is less than 5 km."
"Less than 5 km?" Rong tian also shocked, hurriedly looked outside the window to see the fire in the distance:" Why just aware at this moment?"
"The Li Kingdom"s troops come stealthily, silent, until the border of the camp they just ignite the torch and start attacking."
Rong tian looked outside from the window, snorted:" Looks like we can"t underestimate Ruo yan. He was seriously injured, at the moment will not personally lead the troops, the one who lead the troops if not Miao Guang, must be the number one general Luo wei."
Lie er has already stand in the room, reported:" The enemy general yet to be determined, currently is being traced."
Feng ming since met Rong tian, his alertness has already gone, Until the moment he just found something"s not right, rubbed his eyes and get up from the bed, turned his head to the window and just realized the fire, the fighting sound is everywhere, suddenly screamed:" Rong tian." and looking around.
Rong tian press him to his chest, laughed:" I"m here, what are you afraid of?" He is familiar with the battlefield, although he never go out, yet he already know the enemy situation from the a.n.a.lysis. Know that this war isdangerous, but only can comfort Feng ming.
"It"s Ruo yan?"
"hum, Li kingdom"s troops, a.s.saulting the Earth moon tribe, i"m afraid that this has already been planned in a long time."
As a result, perhaps The erarth moon tribe troops insufficient to withstand.
"Rong tian, what about your troops?"
"The general gathered in the border. But in here...." Rong tian sighed:" approximately three hundred troops."
The room suddenly silence.
The fighting sound is getting closer, Chiu yue and Chiu xing rushed into the room.
The enemy is too strong, Great king should quickly go." They seemed to be just personally witnessed the brutality of the fighting. Their eyes as though reflected the color of blood. Chiu yue hurriedly said:" Because The earth moon tribe offended Ruo yan, they already well-prepared for today. Great king please follow us to the secret construction of the Earth moon tribe hiding place."
"Hiding place?"
The place are broad, can hide thousands of people. The patriarch and some tribe"s important people have already go there, Great king please follow me."
Time is running out, Chiu yue chiu xing lead the way, leading Rong tian and others immediately moved.
Dark night, in there the fighting sound rumbling in the sky, while in here they desperately escaped. The Earth moon tribe"s land surrounded by many mountains and forests, rugged road. They have pa.s.sed many turns with unclear directions. Following Chiu yue uphill and downhill, stampeding for a long time in the valley, finally see the entrance.
Opened the almost without trace entrance. Feng ming said:" Oh, so we hide underground."
Rong tian said:" Li kingdom troops attacked, they must be surrounded around. If we panicky escaped, only rushed into their encirclement. It is better to remain in the danger zone.
Chiu yue Chiu xing lead the way, Rong hu Lie er protected behind, Feng ming while gingerly down the ladder, turned his head and praised:" Remained in danger zone to survive, looks like you"re not stupid. It looks like i haven"t taught you this principle, yet you yourself come out with this principle?"
"Haha, Duke Ming don"t underestimate me."
In this dangerous situation. the two people can be together, yet felt happy, even throw away the Li kingdom"s troops problem.
Rong tian"s Hundreds of faithful guards also followed behind, all the people in the entrance have spent half an hour. Chiu yue carefully close the entrance, pulled out the fire paper, ignite the torch.
"From here down is the hidden place."
Rong tian nodded, pull Feng ming to go down together. This is really a huge hideout, circling for quite some time, Chiu yue Chiu xing constantly pointing the direction, to avoid the crowd straying around.
Until everyone is exhausted, finally they see the broad underground cave. In the cave there are seat tableware with various color.
Chiu yue said:" The Earth moon tribe group are in another cave. This underground labyrinth was originally discovered unintentionally by the Earth moon tribe, it"s very suitable to be used as escaping place. With a great effort, finally figure out the path, and choose a few big cave to be the residence, reserves daily food supplies.
Feng ming is very fond of this kind of adventurous life, his eyes sparkled, constantly shrieking, touching here and there.
Chiu yue said:" The Earth moon tribe"s labyrinth is The Earth moon tribe"s top secret, we as the grandchild of thePatriarch, is one of the Patriarch"s family, so being told about the map. But the Patriarch Grandfather told that the specific content of the map, Even for Great king we couldn"t reveal it. So, if Great king want to leave, please let humble me to lead the way."
Feng ming just knew that Chiu xing Chiu yue"s mother unexpectedly is the Patriarch"s daughter.
No wonder when in The Earth moon tribe all the hospitality is the best.
"Great king please forgive humble me for not telling the content of the map." The two people knelt in front of Rong tian.
Rong tian is very wise and thoughtful, nodded:" just rise, The Earth moon tribe"s last defense, a little strict is fine."
Feng ming yet shout:" Then, if i want to go out is must bring you two along? Ah! i would like explore myself. This kind of Underground labyrinth generally has some treasure...."
Rong hu said:" Duke ming don"t be reckless. There are many paths that we are going through to come here, there are dark caves everywhere and we don"t even know what"s inside, if by any chance you got lost, there is possibility that you can"t go out anymore."
Chiu yue chiu xing stand up, laughing beside Feng ming.
"Duke ming want to play around, anyway you should take us around, of course it"s good for us to lead the way."
"Others are in accordance of Duke ming, but to leave the cave, you must take us to lead the way."
Feng ming winked, felt tired, yawned:" Here"s are full of color, there must be some beds right?"
"Of course," Chiu xing pointed at the cave wall, This cave is a one set cave, beside the mother cave, there are many other big-small caves, they are connected to each other. The bedroom, kitchen are clearly written on the top."
The people take a closer look, and there was indeed an inscription above the door of each room, as the part of this huge labyrinth"s map.
Feng ming laughed loudly," Interested, very interested." and yawned again, Lazily throwing wink towards Rong tian:" i say bad injured patient, you are incredible, clibing up and down all night yet you are not even feel tired. Let"s come with me to rest. As long as the General of Li kingdom can"t find the entrance, we don"t need to be afraid."
Chiu yue said:" even if they can find the entrance, without the labyrinth"s map, they will starve to death inside."
Rong tian"s wound just being bandaged, thanks to the amazing perseverance and dangerous rus.h.i.+ng intuition thatsupported all night, at the moment finally can feel a bit relieves, after hearing Feng ming, he feels his whole body are weak, nodded:" hum, it"s really time to rest now."
Feng ming saw his face was pale, stretched out his hand, said forthright:" come, this time let me hold you." just when he want to use his strength to hold Rong tian, his chest suddenly hurt, and he immediately loose his hand.
Fortunately Rong hu is standing beside and immediately support Rong tiang with his arm, Lie er rushed in front and support Feng ming.
"Duke ming don"t be mischievous, your own injury hasn"t healed, and yet you push yourself." Lie er nagged:" Besides, you today just done "that thing", of course your body will be weak."
Lie er outspoken, Feng ming immediately blushed, stared and said:" What "that thing i have done, you...you...how dare you peek?" He turned his head around and realized Chiu yue chiu xing chuckled, even Rong hu"s lips are slightly twitch, immediately throw off Lie er, turned to Rong tian glared:" It"s all your fault, as the Great king, not even teach them discipline."
Rong tian smiled and said:" They are showing no discipline after following you for some time now, and you now want to blame me?"
Everyone looked at Feng ming"s overwhelmed handsome face, the black s.h.i.+ny eyes looked at one person to another, don"t even know who he must scold, could not help but burst of laughter.
Everything that is new in the cave can"t even satisfied Feng ming"s restless nature.
Not even three days pa.s.sed, He has explored the entire cave, making a fuss in the cave. On the third day, he want to to explore outside the cave.
Rong tian always using his wound to bring back Feng ming"s attention, always lingering every night, Lest Feng ming got excess energy, also considered injured fighting, commendable spirit.
But this kind of commendable effort, only extended Feng ming patience for two days.
The fifth day, Feng ming staring to nag again.
"I want to go outside the cave."
"Why?"
"It"s boring here." Feng ming frowned:" I"m not even a mouse."
Lie er and other looked at each other, coincidentally speak the same thing in the heart: Duke ming you even more like jumping up and down than mouse.
Rong tian lazily dragged Feng ming to his side:" My wound is hurting again."
"Heh, you are using your wound again for my pity. If i knew earlier i wouldn"t tell you the 36 Strategies." feng ming growled, but still stretched his hand to rub the wound, look suspiciously:" Do you feel more better now?"
"Hm."
"Chiu xing, you help Rong tian rub his wound."
Feng ming sat down and feel dejected.
"Why can"t i go outside the cave?"
"This place is the safest place. Chiu xing infrequently respectfully salute to answer:" Even if this labyrinth is being built by The Earth moon tribe, but not all The Earth moon tribe people know the path inside this cave, only several commonly used roads and caves are safe. Duke ming ah, humble me afraid to take you stroll around, and loss on sight of you."
Rong tian firmly said:" Moreover, we recently have been hidden inside the cave, never sent people out to check the situation. We don"t even know whether the Li kingdom troops has found out entrance, if we rushed out, in the tunnel met the...."
Feng ming big yawned, glanced at Rong hu, then glared at Rong tian, want him to say something.
Rong tian smiled:" How about this, we first sent people to the entrance to check whether the enemy troops have discovered the entrance," waving to call the guard.
" You go with Chiu xing to look at the entrance."
"Understood."
The two people go for a while now, and hastily come back.
" Reported to the Great king, the entrance is clear, no enemy invasion."
Feng ming"s eyes s.h.i.+ned brightly, jumped up from the chair, Said:" It"s good then, the path is safe, i can stroll within the scope of the labyrinth. Chiu yue, lead the way."
Walked two step towards the cave hole, yet being pulled back by Rong tian.
"Let go, i want to go out." Feng ming shouted:" Rong tian, you dare to disrespect Duke ming?"
"You dare to disrespect The Great king"s order?" Rong tian grabbed him while smiling, hot lips paste on the ear, said softly:" This labyrinth is The Earth moon tribe"s forbidden place, to let us hide here has been giving us face, and yet you still wan to explore everywhere. If you like this, don"t you only make difficult Chiu yue and chiu xing? They only don"t dare to speak out, even this simple reason you can"t think about, yet you even boast how clever you are."
Feng ming looked down and think, rethink the words and manner of everyone in these days, sure enough there isa little mean to avoid arousing suspicion, suddenly blushed, shook off Rong tian"s hand, glanced at Rong tian and said:" I know now, why don"t you tell me earlier, causing me to look so ugly these days." the little face looked up and complained:" Then let me stayed bored in here."
Rong tian asked again:" It"s already 5 days since we come inside this cave, don"t know how"s the outside situation going?"
Chiu xing obviously knew the information of the other cave that The Earth moon tribe stayed at, Answered:" The tribe has sent ten shrewd young men to go outside, but after going out the entrance, but no one returned."
"Oh?" Rong tian"s eyebrow flicked:" Don"t tell me the Li kingdom troops searched strictly, not even one person succeed to return?
Lie er interrupted:" In case these people being captured, wouldn"t the entrance being exposed?"
"Won"t. They all are the tribe"s hero, if they are being discovered by the enemy and can"t even come back to the entrance, then they will bite the poison in their mouths."
Chiu xing sadly said:" They..I"m afraid they all have died."
Feng ming fear the most of the dead, after hearing them, trembling for a while.
"If we want to know the outside situation, don"t need to send people outside, drill a hole above the cave, maybe can see the outside situation." After saying, 5 people looked at him at the same time, Feng ming muttering, scratched his head and said:" I was wrong again?"
Rong tian sighed:" You"re very clever."
But such a simple truth, The Earth moon tribe must also now about this." Lie er muttered and being heard by Feng ming, Being warning glanced by Feng ming.
Chiu xing nodded and said:" The tribe people of course have thought about this. In the past, they sig the hole above the cave several times, but no matter how long the hole, yet can"t see the outside, The tribe people wasting their effort, and just found out the reason."
"What reason?"
We came in from the entrance of the valley, yet we are at..."
Feng ming opened his eyes widely, jumped up:" But in the underground?"
"Correct." Chiu xing nodded and said:" So no matter how the tribe people drill the hole on the wall, they can"t see outside."
Rong tian heard once and totally understand, said:" The labyrinth below, even if the ground opened up, can onlysee a little bit of the sky, there is no way to know the surrounding situation."
Feng ming desperately scratched his head, asked:" So now we are beneath what place?"
"According to the tribe"s projections, probably beneath the gra.s.sland that Duke ming usually used to ride the horse."
"Unexpectedly we are beneath the gra.s.sland." quietly looking the people around, his eyes flashed, suddenly raised his head and laughed.
"Duke ming, what are you laughing for?"
"Haha, haha, very funny." Feng ming didn"t answer, only kept grimace, making the crowd felt more curious.
Only Rong tian looked calm, said:" Don"t need to ask, he must be thinking of some weird idea again."
"It"s not a weird idea." Feng ming suddenly stop laughing, raise his eyebrows and said:" Is another one of thegreat invention in the era."
"Duke ming don"t give a riddle, please hurry speak."
Feng ming turned, Spoke to Rong hu:" Rong hu, can you drill a hole up here directly to the outside?"
Rong hu sighed:" After surveying how hard the top soil here, we will know then." hurriedly stood up and turned to find somebody to survey the soil.
Feng ming ordered Chiu yue:" I want some long straight pipe, bronze mirrors. Remember, the more smooth thebronze mirrors the better."
"Yes, i will find the best for Duke ming." Chiu yue knew that Feng ming would make something interesting again, she excitedly stick her tounge out at Chiu xing.
The two hurriedly go to prepare Feng ming"s order.
Lie er dissatisfied said:" How about me?"
"You"ll be my a.s.sistant later."
Rong tian raised his eyebrows," What do you to make?"
"It"s difficult to explain to ancient people like you, wait until i finished making it then i will tell you." Feng ming felt proud, yet sit on Rong tian"s lap and sang the melody of Xi rei.
Not a while, Rong hu has returned."
"Reported to Duke ming, although the soil is hard, but we still can drill a hole."
"Great, You immediately find a good location to drill the hole. Chiu yue, have you prepared the things?"
Chiu yue rushed in, some guards behind lift a long bamboo pipe:" Here, here, fortunately Chiu yue and i are always bringing the bronze mirror, This is also the reward from the Great king, very smooth."
"As long as the effect is good."
Feng ming saw the tools have been complete, excitedly starting to command around.
The thing he want to make actually is not difficult, busy for some time finally finished. Feng ming smiled and said:" Done, then still left Rong hu to drill the hole."
The crowd lokking for the thing that had made the busy all day long, a long bamboo embedded two smoothbronze mirrors, exposing dazed look.
"Duke ming, What is the function of this thing?"
"Is it for going through the hole to the surface?"
Feng ming sip the tea, let the thirsty throat to rest for a while, nodded and said:" This is called periscope, two mirrors can reflect the light, parallel light rays pa.s.s from the top to the bottom. We stand beneath the ground, by using this thing, it"s like we are standing on the gra.s.sland."
Chiu yue shocked:" Unexpectedly this magical!"
Lie er suspiciously stratched his ear:" This thing really that good?"
"Hmm, wait until then you all will know."
Unexpectedly Rong hu drill the hole for approximately three hours but still no movement, Feng ming like being stracthed by cat, constantly walking back and forth in the cave.
"Rong hu hasn"t done yet?"
"How can so quickly?"
Rong tian pull the irritated Feng ming to sit beside the table:" Let"s just eat something first."
"I"m impatient, This great invention...." Rong tian hurriedly stuffed Feng ming"s mouth with food, Feng ming chewed and the swallowed it, licking lips and said:" hum, delicious, give me again."
Rong tian laughed, sureenough, personally fed him again.
After finis.h.i.+ng dinner, Haven"t seen Rong hu"s report. Feng ming being caught by Chiu yue to change cloth, go back to the cave, stomping and said:" This won"t do, i want to personally go to supervise."
Rong tian shook head and sighed, hold Feng ming"s waist and hug him:" Your patience is extremely poor. Rong hu always doing thing neatly, if he can"t, it"s no use for you to go supervise then. How can drilling a hole to the surface is an easy task? let"s go back to the bedroom, tomorrow we will ask."
"Tomorrow?"
"Of course tomorrow." Rong tian"s challenging eyebrow, ambiguously leaned over, his big hand stroking the curve of Feng ming"s back, laughed:" Who told you to teach me "The spring night is worth a thousand gold"? that was the most useful word that you have teach me."
"Pervert!"
Opposing again and again, Rong tian has pushed Feng ming back to the bedroom.
In one night making him backache, the second day Feng ming struggled to get up from the bed.
Rong hu had already been waiting inside the cave, seeing Feng ming and smiled:" the hole has been done, now only wait for Duke ming"s tool."
Feng ming excitedly gearing up and said:" immediately start the work!"
Suddenly one speak thousands respond, carefully inserting Feng ming"s Periscope into the hole. Everyone busy for a long time, finally has fit in the place.
Looking at the length of the pipe, the upper ground is not that far from the beneath.
The exciting time finally came, Feng ming shouted, the first one to looked at the periscope, focusing his eyesight.
A moment of silent.
Chiu yue chiu xing wait beside, widely opened their eyes to look at Feng ming"s movement. Rong tian leaned against the wall, slightly raised his lips.
After a long while, Feng ming finally turned away from the periscope and looked at the crowd, looked weird.
"Duke ming, you can really see the surrounding circ.u.mstances?"
Lie er step forward, shaking Feng ming"s shoulder:" Duke ming?"
Rong tian coughed , said:" If you can"t see, there is no big deal, probably the hole drilled at the wrong place?"
Feng ming blanked for a while, and weirdly looked at Rong hu:" Why you choose this place to drill the hole?"
Rong hu doesn"t know the reason and answered:" The soil here is more suitable, so i choose here."
We are now perfectly beneath the room i lived before, according to my speculation, maybe the edge of the hole is beside the bed, there are some flower pots that being planted by Chiu yue Chiu xing, and it"s in the corner, should not be noticeable."
Chiu xing screamed:" So this thing is really can be used then?"
"Oh my G.o.d, It"s really this magical!"
Feng ming saw the crowd so excited, quickly put his finger on the lips:" hush, be careful the sound will be heard above." His great product successfully used, yet did not reveal exciting appearance, instead his face showing fear, turned to looked at Rong tian, lower his voice:" i saw Ruo yan, he sit in the room, and some generals are standing beside him. He...he actually come here in person, certainly for catching me." His black eyes staring showed anxiety, and shrinking into Rong tian"s arm.
