Rebirth of the Three Kingdoms I call the shots

After retreating from the group of apes, Liu Qi ordered the bronze guards to overhaul the four carriages. Except for the potholes that were smashed into the carriage by the group of apes, there was nothing serious about the carriages, and the carriages continued as usual.

Liu Qi and Chen Wen rode ahead to explore the road, while E Huan also led the four carriages on horseback.

After walking for a while, the ancient forest road seemed to have a swamp, and it became narrower and narrower, and it became more and more difficult for a horse-drawn carriage to pass. After everyone confirmed that this road must be able to get out of this virgin forest, they could only choose one way to go to the dark.

The deeper you go, the more muddy the ancient road is, and the shrubs and weeds are knee-deep. Occasionally, a few snakes with colorful patterns will pass under the hooves of the horses.

Having learned the lesson of killing the Yangtze crocodile, Liu Qi ordered not to kill as much as possible. In this weird primitive forest, even an ant cannot be easily trampled to death, and a water snake cannot be killed randomly. It's troublesome when there are apes, ants, snakes, and locusts.

Everyone walked very carefully. The weed-covered ancient road was so narrow that a carriage could only pass through it, and it was necessary to pass carefully.

At this time, Liu Qi estimated that it would be near noon, but the ancient road was very dark. A few rays of sunlight shone through the dense tree gaps into the ancient road, but those few rays of sunlight seemed very precious, proving that this forest can still be illuminated by sunlight. to the place.

Where there is sunshine, there will be a road, Liu Qi thought.

"Third brother, be careful." Chen Wen yelled, Liu Qi reined in the reins like a conditioned reflex, the horse neighed, raised its hooves, took a few steps back, and the carriage behind also stopped one after another.

It's so dangerous, Liu Qi looked around, and there was a small pond in the place where the weeds were submerged. I don't know if it was a horse pit. It's really strange that there is a puddle on this inaccessible path.

Seeing this, E Huan rode forward, picked up the halberd in his hand, and was about to test the depth of the puddle. Liu Qi subconsciously felt that the puddle was weird, and said, "Wait a minute, General E."

As Liu Qi said, he immediately looked at the puddle carefully, and found that the puddle was not big, but if the carriage wanted to pass it, it would be no problem to sink two wheels, which meant that the puddle was in the way, and it was impossible to get through it for a while.

What's even more strange is that a scene that made Liu Qi's scalp numb appeared. The puddle covered by weeds was full of thousands of small snakes of different sizes and entangled. Fortunately, E Huan was stopped in time. Otherwise, the snakes in these puddles will be alarmed, and any one of them will get into the neck and die.

However, Liu Qi could feel that there seemed to be a special harmony in this primeval forest. As long as you didn't disturb him, or you didn't kill, they wouldn't attack first. Flustered, still happily playing in the water, it seems that thousands of snakes are entangled together in a puddle of unknown depth. If you don’t insist on passing through it, or if you have the leisure to watch it, it is definitely rare in the primeval forest. spectacle.

"Brother Wen, is this the wrong way?" Looking at the frightening group of snakes full of puddles, E Huan became suspicious again.

"It shouldn't be wrong." Chen Wen looked at Liu Qi, who was staring at the puddle, and began to feel a little unconfident.

Liu Qi thought for a while, and said with certainty: "It's not wrong. There are puddles on the trail, which proves that this is a trail. Someone once dug a pit to trap horses. Later, it may be attacked by apes or snakes, and no one lives there."

"My lord is right, it's just that there are so many nasty snakes in this puddle, and there is no way to pass through it." E Huan became worried, holding the halberd in his hand, for fear that a nest of snakes would suddenly jump up and attack Liu Qi.

Liu Qi glanced at the ancient forest road that was still out of sight, and ordered to retreat 50 meters to avoid the attack of snakes in the puddle, and then said to E Huan: "General E, put on the crocodile armor and bypass the swamp, you go to the front Explore the road, see how many swamps and puddles there are on this trail, and return within half an hour."

"Yes." E Huan handed the halberd to the bronze guard next to him. Liu Qi personally took out a crocodile armor from the carriage, helped E Huan take off the iron armor, put on the crocodile armor again, and pierced E Huan's sword. Well, I told E Huan: "General E only explores the way, don't kill, be careful, go back quickly."

"Yes, don't worry, my lord." After E Huan put on the crocodile armor, his whole body trembled, his hands and feet were very flexible, and the advantage of this crocodile armor over iron armor was very obvious.

I saw E Huanchao, Liu Qi and Chen Wen clasped their fists together, leaped onto a towering ancient tree, grabbed the trunk and jumped onto another tree, bypassing the swamp, jumping like an ape king in the blink of an eye Teng Nuo disappeared in front of the ancient road, and the trap of Shenma Puddle was no threat to E Huan.

"Third brother, General E is really a god." Chen Wen exclaimed.

"That's right." Liu Qi replied with a smile, thinking, can the person I like be worse?Then he asked again: "Second brother, there is no retreat, we have to bite the bullet and go down."

"Yes, I hope that General E can find out good news, and I hope that I can get out of this damn virgin forest before dark." Chen Wen also began to wish, in the prospect of facing endless unknown dangers, no matter how smart A determined person can also become insecure.

"I hope." Liu Qi also felt helpless, knowing that the word "hope" is just an unrealistic and beautiful idea, which will not have any positive effect on solving practical problems, and said: "Second brother, we are waiting here. , is not a solution, no matter what difficulties there are in the road ahead, we have to find a way to get past this Ten Thousand Snake Pit first."

"The road ahead is so dangerous!" Chen Wen sighed again, twisting his short beard and said, "Third brother, to avoid this pit of ten thousand snakes, just cut a tree from the side and make a detour around it. It is easy to go around a pit with some effort, but if there are many pits, there is no way out."

Liu Qi frowned. It seems that this primeval forest is really not a place for people to stay. Even the Tongrenwei, E Huan and Chen Wen, who were equipped with unrivaled martial arts, all escaped death. How can ordinary people survive in the forest? possible?

"Second brother, do you still have to wait for the news of General E's exploration before making up your mind?"

"That's all there is to it."

"There are many possibilities. Suppose this ancient road is full of swamps, and there are countless snake pits?"

"Then... I have to think about how to get through." Chen Wen was stopped by Liu Qi's words, thinking about it, if this ancient forest road is really full of swamps and full of puddles and snake pits as the young master Liu Qi said, You can't just wait here for E Huan to bring good news, but waste more than half an hour in the virgin forest. Staying in the forest for more than one minute will be more dangerous.

Chen Wen frowned deeply, curled up his short beard, and closed his eyes slightly on the horseback to meditate quietly. If he discarded the carriage containing the materials for tomb robbery and traveled lightly, it is still possible to walk out of the virgin forest with the strength of 13 people, but this trip to Jiangling The purpose is to steal the king's sword, and wait for the opportunity to carry out the king's business. How to rob the tomb without the tomb robbery materials?

Liu Qi was also thinking. Looking at the winding and rugged swamp road, he experienced a life-and-death battle between humans and crocodiles by the Yangtze River, and almost staged a battle between man and ape in the virgin forest. Now he encountered the Ten Thousand Snakes Pit. There will be another battle between humans and snakes, not to mention that there is Cai Maoji taking Liu Qi's order along the way, it seems that the trip to the tomb for the world's number one sword Yue King Goujianjian is not going well.

Ten Thousand Snake Pit is really a big trouble. Thinking of the movie "Human-Snake War" I have seen in my memory, it is really chilling, not to mention being in a primitive forest full of dangers.

"Third brother, I have a solution." Chen Wen suddenly shouted excitedly.

Liu Qi was very surprised, and asked, "Second brother, what can I do?"

Chen Wen smiled strangely, twirled his beard habitually and said, "I'm not sure if this method will work or not, but I can try it."

Liu Qi said, "Tell me about it."

Chen Wendao: "I see that in the Ten Thousand Snakes Pit, although there are many snakes, they are not big, and there are no powerful characters such as cobras and coronas. As for snakes in the water, there is probably no one who is not afraid of crocodiles. I am thinking, if we Throw a piece of crocodile meat down and see if the snakes in the water will sink into the bottom of the water in fright when they smell the Yangtze crocodile? If so, we can take the opportunity to set up a plank on the puddle to pass the carriage."

Liu Qi said with a smile: "Second brother, you are a genius, you can come up with this method. A piece of dead crocodile meat can scare thousands of snakes. If this is true, it will be legendary."

Chen Wen chuckled and said, "Third brother is joking, there is no other way but to treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor."

Liu Qi said: "You can try it, but the problem is, if the ten thousand snakes are not frightened by the dead crocodile meat, but are enraged or frightened so that they don't sink to the bottom and come on the road instead, these ten thousand strange little forest water snakes will be more powerful than others. It's even more difficult to deal with ten thousand Yangtze crocodiles and ten thousand great apes!"

"This...that's true, let me think about it again." Chen Wen was awakened by Liu Qi's words, and he took a breath. It seems that Liu Qi, the sworn brother, thought more thoughtfully and comprehensively. The third brother Liu Qi acted resolutely, but Foresight and foresight are indeed the talents of generals.

Chen Wen pondered for a while, and then said: "Why don't we cut a road first and bypass this Ten Thousand Snakes Pit."

"Not right." Liu Qi shook his head, "It takes time and effort to cut down trees. If there are many puddles in front, wouldn't it be a waste of energy? I think we have to take a gamble and try throwing a piece of crocodile meat first. "

"Third Brother, what if Wan Snakes are provoked to run up?" Chen Wen's eyes widened, and it was Chen Wen's turn to be cautious.

Liu Qi looked at the puddle in front of him, there seemed to be a hundred snakes in the puddle jumping on the surface of the water, as if mocking Liu Qi's incompetence, Liu Qi was heartbroken and said, "Second brother, get ready."

"Yes." Chen Wen replied, got off the horse, took out a piece of crocodile meat from the carriage, held it in his hand, glanced at the puddle, and adjusted his throwing posture.

Liu Qi also got out of the carriage, took the pickled crocodile meat from Chen Wen, and said with a smile, "Second brother, don't worry. Turn the carriage back 100 meters first, and all the guards get out of the carriage. In case the water snake is irritated by the crocodile meat and runs ashore Come on, there is also a buffer zone, when we let go of our hands and feet to kill, maybe we can walk out of this virgin forest and have a whole snake feast at night."

"All the warriors got out of the car and retreated 100 meters to prepare for the battle between humans and snakes." Chen Wenchao shouted to the bronze guard.

After the four carriages withdrew a hundred meters, they made preparations and removed the roof of one carriage to erect a slab bridge so that the carriages could pass through Ten Thousand Snake Pit. Chen Wen and the ten bronze guards shook hands nervously. The weapons are ready to fight against ten thousand snakes.

Seeing that the guards were ready, Liu Qi wished that the dead crocodile meat could stop ten thousand water snakes. He weighed the piece of crocodile meat in his hand, without saying a word, ran forward 50 meters, aimed at the pit of ten thousand snakes, and threw it hard. The Wanshekeng splashed a foot-high water splash with a bang.
