Chapter 1682 Bombing the Bridge
Li Bai was not in a hurry, she needed to confirm the identity of "Wu Qiang", "Let me ask you, how many people did we come this time?"
"10 people. Miss Li, what are you doing?"
The mummy replied as dry flesh and blood continued to fall off its face. This scene made the well-informed Li Bai unable to hold on.
“Let me ask you again, what did I tell you when Huang Jun blocked the sword for Yao, Shun, and Yu?”
This sentence obviously confused the mummy, and the unusually hoarse voice changed accordingly, "Miss Li, you haven't told me anything, and wasn't it Lu Zhangyuan who defended Yao, Shun, and Yu?"
The next second, Li Bai suppressed the resistance in her heart, grabbed the arm of the mummy, and at the same time used her other hand to pull the rope around her waist slowly and quickly. This was the secret code she and Lu Zhangyuan had agreed upon.
Soon, the rope had feedback, and there was a force dragging her outward. But before Li Bai could relax, the surrounding fog seemed to be stimulated, and suddenly surged up, and after a few breaths, Li Bai's sight was temporarily blocked. Fortunately, Li Bai was still holding the mummy's skinny arm tightly.
“Ah!”
A short exclamation suddenly sounded in front of him, and Li Bai could tell it was Wu Qiang who looked like a mummy.
"What's wrong with you?" Li Bai asked hurriedly.
“There was a hand on my shoulder, pulling me back.” Wu Qiang’s voice also trembled.
As soon as he finished speaking, the mummy retreated uncontrollably into the mist. It was dragged away by a force. Li Bai could not stand still and was pulled into the mist.
“Oops.”
It’s not that Li Bai has never imagined a similar situation happening, but she has no countermeasures.
Now the connection point between her and the outside world is Lu Zhangyuan. If Lu Zhangyuan is also involved, then the three of them will be ruined.
However, Li Bai later felt that he was worrying too much. Lu Zhangyuan would not sit back and watch him being dragged in. When he could no longer hold on, he would naturally let go.
Li Bai has already explained this, and she will not blame Lu Zhangyuan.
As the rope was continuously dragged in, Li Bai inevitably panicked. She knew that Lu Zhangyuan outside was getting closer and closer to the bridge pier. She and Wu Qiang would be abandoned at any time. This feeling of not knowing when to be abandoned is like a quagmire. The more you struggle, the more desperate you become.
The mummy suddenly let go of his hand, and then pushed Li Bai outward hard, "Miss Li, go back quickly, I can't survive, and I can't hurt you anymore!"
Wu Qiang is a good man with a generous and kind personality, which is one of the reasons why Li Bai decided to take the risk to save him, but as Lu Zhangyuan said, he is just a stranger after all.
Li Bai has tried her best. She has nothing to regret. She was ready to give up. But just when Li Bai was about to let go, suddenly, a huge force came from his waist. This force was extremely powerful. It can't be Lu Zhangyuan.
There was another thing that made Li Bai instantly vigilant. There was a cold aura permeating along the rope, almost freezing her to death.
Li Bai didn't know exactly what happened, but she knew that something must have happened outside, and Lu Zhangyuan was afraid that he was also in danger.
Things were developing in an irreversible direction. She and Wu Qiang were trapped on the bridge pier, and something happened to Lu Zhangyuan, the only one who could help outside.
Gradually, Li Bai realized something was wrong. After the cold breath came, the force pulling Wu Qiang in the mist weakened a lot, and now it has almost completely disappeared.
Li Bai now began to worry about the force pulling the rope.
But she was not left with much time to think. Li Bai and Wu Qiang were quickly pulled out of the fog. When the fog in front of him dissipated, Li Bai finally saw Wu Qiang. At this moment, his face was filled with disaster. The joy for the rest of my life, "I'm out! I I escaped from that heavy fog!”
“Huh——”
A heavy breathing sound came from not far behind Li Bai. Li Bai did not dare to look back, but turned little by little. Body, standing very close behind Lu Zhangyuan.
However, Lu Zhangyuan looked quite miserable now. He was holding on to the rope with both hands and was exhausted.
His feet stayed on the damaged edge of the bridge. If he took another step forward, he would fall off the bridge.
There were still shocking blood stains on the rope. In order to keep the rope, he wore his hands raw.
What shocked Li Bai even more was that the other end of the rope actually fell under the bridge.
Li Bai looked at Lu Zhangyuan suddenly, his pupils trembling, "You"
Lu Zhangyuan forced out an ugly smile and released his bloody palm, "Sister Li, your guess is right. The ghost that trapped you is indeed afraid of water. In the end, I couldn't hold on any longer, so I threw the rope into the river. Inside, as expected, you came out safe and sound.”
Lv Zhangyuan's tone was relaxed, as if he was talking about an inconspicuous thing, but Li Bai was frightened when he heard it, because although Lu Zhangyuan threw the other end of the rope into the river, he himself did not let go. This is equivalent to gambling with his own life that she and Wu Qiang will come back safely.
And Li Bai could completely feel how strong the evil spirit coming from the river was, but you must know that the first person that the evil energy came into contact with was Lu Zhangyuan, and he suffered more injuries.
Thinking of this, Li Bai's eyes towards Lu Zhangyuan changed. It was not that she had never doubted him, but now...
But Lu Zhangyuan seemed not to notice anything, while relaxing and stiffening He raised his arm and smiled at Li Bai, "Sister Li, you are still awesome. I just threw the rope into the river. Do you know what happened?"
Li Bai calmed down and said, "What happened?"
"Hey, there was chaos under the bridge, crackling, and the sound of fetching water. I took a quick look and almost gave me the courage to take a look. I was so scared that I fell down." Lu Zhangyuan seemed to have thought of the terrifying scene at that time, and his whole face became nervous, "That underwater, Especially around the bridge piers, many hands were stretched out, and they were black. Those black hands kept waving to grab the rope. The scene was scary to death. "
Li Bai looked at it. Lu Zhangyuan, who kept moving his arms without revealing any flaws on his face, didn't know what to say for a moment.
Wu Qiang seemed to have come to his senses at this moment, and kept thanking Li Bai and Lu Zhangyuan. He had tears and runny nose. It could be seen that he was really frightened. He was walking between life and death. This experience is no joke.
Before they could take a breath, the three of them looked in the direction of Blackwater Village almost at the same time, and they heard a strange sound.
"It seems that the Blood Queen's fire team is coming soon." Wu Qiang couldn't help but swallowed.
At this moment, he had no other ideas. Li Bai immediately commanded, "Hurry and pave the bridge deck. Remember, you can go back the same way you came. As long as you don't look back, you will be fine. When you hear someone calling your name, Don’t look back, it’s all fake.”
Follow Wu Qiang. Lu Zhangyuan started fucking enthusiastically, and Li Bai quickly ran towards the end of the bridge near Heishui Village. She found a commanding height to stand on, and soon, a long team came out from behind a forest. Someone was holding a torch, which was particularly dazzling in the dim night.
Slowly, Li Bai opened her eyes wide. She actually saw a huge sedan chair, and a large sculpture was sitting on the sedan chair.
There is also a red hijab fastened on the top of the sculpture. The hijab is blood red. It is indescribably weird under the light of the torch, as if it had just been dyed red with blood.
Almost instantly, Li Bai figured out what the ceremony in Heishui Village was about tonight. They wanted to cross the river, and not only the villagers wanted to cross, but they also wanted to carry the Lady Zhusheng across.
No, no, these villagers are all children of the Empress to some extent. They naturally obey the orders of their "mother". All of this is prepared for tonight. Their ultimate goal is to cross the river. , leaving the blackwater river that bound them.
"Quick! Hurry up!"
Li Bai also dragged a piece of wood and ran over to help.
In the blood empress team, Yao, Shunyu, and others were in a worse situation than Li Bai and the others. His face was covered with blood, a lot of his hair fell off, one ear was missing, and his arm was broken. Every time he took a step, blood splashed down his pants legs.
Fortunately, these villagers kept their promises. After the death of their opponents, the villagers, including the superior village chief and Elder Sun, did not cause trouble for them again.
Not to mention the ordinary villagers, they all trembled when Yao, Shunyu glanced at them, and no one dared to look at Yao, Shunyu.
"Bah!" Yao and Shun Yu spat heavily on the ground, "Those who bully the weak and fear the strong!"
The disgust for these disgusting things has reached its peak, and he will never let them go. .
Not long ago there was a group of three, but now Huang Jun was stuffed into the box as an offering, and Luan Lihui's head was still boiling in the cauldron of boiling water. The skin and flesh had fallen off, revealing the pale bones.
But what Yao, Shun, and Yu were most worried about now was the situation at Li Bai's place.
"It must succeed." Yao, Shun, and Yu thought to themselves.
“It’s done!” Wu Qiang laid the last plank and stood up happily.
Li Bai, Lu and Zhangyuan were also there. The three of them looked at the shore just around the corner and had mixed feelings for a while.
Li Bai took a step forward and was about to be the first to land on the other side.
But the next second a rough hand stopped her, "Miss Li, don't take risks, let me go!" Wu Qiang said stubbornly: "Those ghosts are very evil, maybe there are some traps."
After finishing speaking, Wu Qiang did not hesitate and walked onto the shore in a few steps. He bounced back and forth a few times and found that there was no After asking the question, he waved to Li Bai with joy, "Miss Li, Brother Lu, no problem, come quickly!"
Stepping on the soft soil, Li Bai felt at ease. Kneeling on the ground, he pulled off a few pieces of grass, rubbed them twice, and sniffed lightly. A unique smell penetrated his nose.
“It really tastes good, it’s true here!” Li Bai couldn’t hide his joy. He had tried it in the dense forest not long ago, but the grass there had no smell at all.
Everything in Heishui Village is fake. It is like a completely fictitious and absurd world. Li Bai doesn't know how to describe it.
At this moment, Li Bai and the others could already see the approaching team of the Blood Empress. As the villagers carrying torches boarded the bridge, Li Bai finally saw Yao, Shun and Yu following the Zhusheng Empress carrying the sedan.
And there was only Yao, Shun and Yu, but the other two people were nowhere to be seen.
Seeing the miserable appearance of Yao, Shun, and Yu, Li Bai's anger burst out instantly. She picked up her backpack, which contained a large bag of explosives.
"Miss Li, don't be impulsive!" Wu Qiang hurriedly advised, "Yao, Shun, and Yu are still in the team. If we blow up the bridge now, he will be finished."
This Li Bai didn't understand the truth, but the current situation is that Yao, Shun and Yu are behind Empress Zhusheng. If we want to ensure that Yao, Shun and Yu cross the bridge, Empress Zhusheng will definitely be able to come over.
Li Bai can be sure that once Empress Zhusheng crosses the Black Water River, there will be nothing that can restrain her, and she will kill everyone in the most cruel way.
Li Bai is not afraid of death, but she doesn’t want to hurt her friends. Now it seems that the three worlds are closely connected to each other. If Empress Zhusheng wins and leaves Blackwater Village smoothly, there is no guarantee that it will not appear in The wealthy world of the King of Jiangcheng.
The vanguard of the Blood Empress team has arrived at the middle of the bridge. It can be seen that the villagers are also walking very carefully, and even repeatedly step on the board to confirm whether it is strong.
Yao and Shunyu, who saw Li Bai from a distance, finally breathed a sigh of relief. He understood the current situation more thoroughly than Li Bai and the others. He tried to walk a few steps quickly. If he could cross the bridge before the team arrived, then Li Bai can then use his hands and feet to blow up the bridge.
But as soon as he moved, he was blocked by several villagers with their bodies. It was the same several times in a row, and there was no possibility of breakthrough.
By now he had calmed down, and he was sincerely happy for her when he learned that Li Bai was still alive.
Waving to Li Bai as if to say goodbye, Yao Shunyu reached into his clothes. There was not only a dead baby, but also a quantity of explosives.
Now he also understands that the so-called escort team is just a cover. It is true that Empress Zhusheng needs them as hostages.
Even if all three of them die, there may be villagers disguised as them to confuse Li Bai and others.
There was a fierceness in his eyes. Since Empress Zhusheng wouldn't let him live, he couldn't let Empress Zhusheng and these damn villagers live easy. He planned to leave shortly after Empress Zhusheng. Detonate the explosives when you reach the middle of the bridge.
It would not be a problem to use the power of explosives to blow off the temporary planks on the bridge, but when it fell into the water, the Lady of Insect would certainly not be able to hold on.
When Li Bai detonates the explosives on the bridge, even if these ghosts don't fall into the water, they will no longer be able to leave Heishui Village.
Yao and Shunyu guessed that these villagers relied on the strange ability of Zhusheng Empress to survive. As long as Zhusheng Empress died, these villagers would not survive long.
"I'll find a way, you just wait, if...if it's too late, blow up the bridge! We must not let those ghosts cross the bridge!"
Li Bai left two bundles of explosives , then he carried a backpack full of explosives on his back and ran towards the bloody team resolutely.
The footsteps landed on the wooden board and made a "dong dong dong" sound. Soon Li Bai noticed something was wrong, and there were footsteps behind her.
"Miss Li, we are here to help you too!" (End of this chapter)
