Chapter 99 Desperate
"Hey, old man, I'm sending you food, enjoy it slowly, brothers, come and see the show."
On the top of the tunnel, the little soldier poked his head out and shouted at the weird man.
The strange man ignored the above tunnel and grabbed Huang Shang, who had just left the iron cage, and made a terrifying and strange gurgling sound in his throat, pounced on Huang Shang, who had just left the iron cage like a hungry tiger.
Huang Shang didn't dare to be negligent. In desperation, he used the Sky Shadow Step. His body shook, and his whole body had already flashed two feet away from the tunnel wall.
A trace of surprise flashed in the weird man's green eyes, his throat slurped for a while, and he flew forward again, grabbing Huang Shang with his ten fingers.
"Brothers, it's interesting. This guy is really capable. Even the mad dog can't catch him." The little soldier leader smiled and greeted the other soldiers to watch, poking out half of his body one by one, laughing.
"Isn't the Mingzhou flower-picking thief I caught in Huangzhou last week who was just thrown in? Isn't it very good to run away? In the end, I was caught by a mad dog and ate all of them," said a soldier.
"Yes, there is also a murderous bandit leader who was thrown in and fought with the mad dog, but in the end he was torn in half and chewed in half."
Another said.
"Don't make a noise, watch the show, brothers, can you keep it a little bit? I bet this guy can't hold on for a cup of tea, and those who are willing to bet will bet."
The little soldier leader shouted and found a broken silver from his arms and threw it on the ground.
"I'm going to bet he can't stand it."
"This guy can deal with so many yamen runners and soldiers, I guess he can survive." Another soldier said.
"You are stupid. Can the yamen runners compete with this old mad dog?"
...
Huang Shang ignored the discussion above the tunnel and focused on the Tianying Step and dodged back and forth in the tunnel. However, as time went by, Huang Shang became more and more surprised. The mad old man's martial arts were indeed very unusual. Huang Shang used the Tianying Step with all his strength. Although the old man would catch the empty space every time, the old man soon took a shortcut and pounced on him, with an extremely accurate landing point.
The old man's green eyes became bigger and bigger, and Huang Shang vaguely heard the old man's gasp.
Even if the old man can't catch him, it's not good to be in this deep pit. Even if the old man gives up catching him, what should I do at night? Even if he doesn't sleep or eat, how long can he last?
Huang Shang had just fallen into random thoughts, and the stench unique to the old man's body came and was almost caught by the old man.
Huang Shang used the iron cage to deal with the old man, and the old man who had been unable to attack for a long time was obviously extremely angry. He kept gurgling in his throat, grinning, and making various intimidating expressions at Huang Shang, and he was really like a wild beast.
"Damn it, crazy old man, you're just a little bit of your ability? Didn't you go to heaven? Why can't you even catch someone today? I made me lose the bet, your grandma's."
The little soldier leader poked out half of his body amid the ridicule of other soldiers, held a bow and arrow in his hand, bent his bow and arrow, aimed at the old man and was about to shoot down.
The old man's originally cold eyes suddenly lit up. He flew to the front of the iron cage, leaned over and picked up the iron arrow that he had just shot, turned over and waved his hand, and the iron arrow flew straight towards the top of the pit like a meteor.
With a "ah", the iron arrow hit the neck of the little leader holding the iron bow and preparing to shoot. The little leader's hand holding the iron bow loosened, and the center of gravity was unstable, and it fell down straight along the tunnel wall.
The old man flew without hesitation and rushed towards the body of the soldier who fell down.
Taking this opportunity, Huang Shang took two steps at once and rushed towards the dark cave.
At this time, the old man ignored Huang Shang and rushed forward to grab the soldier's body, bit it on his neck, his throat rumbling, and red blood kept flowing out from the corners of his mouth.
"Kill him, kill him!"
The soldiers at the top of the tunnel suddenly became panic and raised the longbows in their hands, but only half of their heads were poked out, and none of them dared to lean over and shoot arrows.
As a lesson, once you lean on yourself and get shot by this old man, your life is of great importance!
Huang Shang entered the cave and paused for a moment. He found that the old man had not followed and continued to grop and walked towards the cave. At first, the cave was pitch black and could not see the eyes, but after his eyes adapted to the darkness in the cave, the cave seemed less dark and could vaguely see a rough outline.
This cave is about one person tall, and two people can walk side by side. The cave is dark and humid, and the air is a little rotten and stuffy, making people feel indescribable.
Huang Shang did not dare to miss it. After his eyes adapted to the dim environment in the cave, he did not dare to stay under his feet and began to walk desperately towards the inside of the cave.
Huang Shang couldn't imagine that once the weird man had enough, he would immediately chase him. Fighting inside the cave, the effect of his Tianying Step would be greatly reduced. The boxing and sword techniques he learned from Master Qingyi might be useful for dealing with ordinary martial arts people, but judging from the martial arts skills revealed by the old man's pursuit just now, his boxing and foot skills are not enough.
Thinking of this, Huang Shang was vigilantly paying attention to the movement behind him, while stepping on the rocks and occasional water on the ground, walking towards the depths of the cave one step deep and one step shallow.
The cave seemed infinitely long. Huang Shang walked for a long time but didn't see the end of the cave. There were only wet caves and scattered stones along the way. Occasionally, he could step on bones as hard as human bones.
The only thing Huang Shang could feel was that the cave was facing downwards, because the cave was getting wetter, the light became darker, and the water drips became more and more.
"Bang"
Huang Shang, who was running in the dark, suddenly hit the hard stone wall, and his forehead suddenly felt extremely painful as if it was burning.
Huang Shang thought he was in the wrong direction, so he stretched out his hands in the darkness and turned around on the spot only to find out that it was not that he was in the wrong direction, but that there was no way to go.
There was silence around, without the sound of insects, only the sound of small drops of water dripping from above the cave fell to the ground, dripping, extremely crisp.
Before Huang Shang could calm down, the unique and regular footsteps of people walking came from the long and narrow cave. Although it was not urgent, it was the same as the frequency of ordinary people walking.
In such a dark cave, those who can achieve such paces either have torches to illuminate the road or are extremely familiar with the cave.
No need to guess, it must be that the weird old man who has handled the matter outside and caught up with him.
In this environment, there is no weapon around you to defend against. Facing such a crazy old man, Huang Shang suddenly clenched his head and thought hard.
There is nothing else on him except two books and one jade seal.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, becoming clearer, and even the old man's heavy breathing could be felt after passing through the reflection of the hole.
Accompanied by the clear sound of footsteps, Huang Shang felt the rotten smell from the surrounding air, and kept looking up and looking around, hoping that a miracle would happen.
