Chapter 100 Underground Passage
The village head walked around the top of the mountain and looked down at the foot of the mountain. His voice trembled a little, "They are afraid that we will come down from the back of the mountain, so they set fire to the foot of the mountain. We are trapped on the top of the mountain!"
Just when everyone was at a loss, the woman who was eating chicken and drinking soup wiped her greasy mouth and said, "Oh, I'm so full! Hurry up and pack up and follow me. I live in a place that is safe from the fire."
Seeing that everyone was looking at her suspiciously, the woman immediately glared at everyone angrily: "What? Now that you are about to die, you still doubt my purpose? Are you going to leave or not? If you want to leave, hurry up and follow me."
The village head heard this and waved his hand, saying, "Let's follow her."
The woman led them for half a quarter of an hour and came to the entrance of a cave, motioning for everyone to follow.
Xu Zhiyi looked at the narrow cave entrance, frowned, and reminded: "Are we going to hide in the cave? If the fire comes up, we can avoid the fire in the cave, but we can't avoid the thick smoke. We will be choked to death in it."
Upon hearing this, the woman stepped into the cave first and shouted, "Come on! I'm not stupid. How can I choke myself to death in the cave?"
Xu Zhiyi thought about it and quickly guessed that there might not be just a cave inside, so he took the lead and followed by the village head, and then every household followed.
Everyone followed the woman into the center of the cave, where there was a large empty space, only about ten meters away from the cave entrance.
Xu Zhiyi lowered his head and thought about the distance. If the fire burned around the cave entrance, thick smoke would definitely pour into the cave.
The woman looked at Xu Zhiyi and knew what she was worried about. Then, under the gaze of everyone, she twisted an ordinary little stone in the cave. As a result, there was a vibration in the cave, and a door appeared.
The woman waved her hand to signal everyone: "Follow me, I will show you around my place, but I have to make it clear that I don't have any extra food to entertain you! You have to bring your own food."
Everyone followed with doubts, and after everyone went in, Xu Zhiyi deliberately stayed at the end and pushed the large stone next to him to the stone door. After the stone door was lowered, it left just the right height for people to climb out.
In this way, even if something happens after entering, we can kill the people and the stone door will still leave a way out.
The woman led everyone for nearly an hour, then waved her hand to signal everyone: "Hey! We are tired, everyone, take a rest here for a while, do you have anything to eat? I am hungry and can't walk anymore!"
Everyone: “…” Are you here to get free food and drinks?
But everyone still took out the noodles they had not finished eating. The woman seemed to have no idea what politeness was. She took the noodles from their hands and started eating them in big mouthfuls.
Everyone looked at the woman wolfing down the food, and those who didn't know would have thought that she had been hungry for a long time.
They knew that while they were worrying about the fire at the foot of the mountain, she had secretly eaten all their chicken and chicken soup. It had only been over an hour, and she was so hungry again?
After the woman finished eating the third pancake, she got up and led everyone to continue walking forward. When everyone saw that there was no road and thought it was the end, the woman stopped for a while around the stone wall, then pressed a stone mechanism, and another road appeared.
This time, the woman only persisted for an hour and a half, and the village head obediently handed over the last remaining pancake.
After the woman took it, she broke off half of it with great pain and handed it back to the village head: "I'll eat this half, and you can keep the other half!"
As he spoke, he ate the bread while walking, and waved from time to time to signal everyone to follow him.
After walking for half an hour, we finally saw the light. It was the exit!!!
When everyone really came out, they found that it was already dawn!
Wang Xiaohe pointed at the burning volcano not far away and asked in surprise: "Is that the mountain we were on last night? We actually walked out of that mountain?"
After hearing this, everyone carefully identified the direction and found that it was indeed the mountain they had been to last night. It turned out that the cave on the mountain was a tunnel? Who would dig a tunnel in the mountain for no reason?
Xu Zhiyi thought back to the tunnel in the cave. She discovered that the woman was thinking about the direction every time she walked a distance, and then pressed the mechanism and the road reappeared. That is to say, there was more than one tunnel on the mountain, and there were also tunnels leading to other places.
The woman looked at everyone and pointed at a bamboo house not far away and shouted, "Let's go, my home is right there, don't worry! No matter how big the fire is, it can't reach here! There is no dry grass around, it's bare, not to mention there is a mountain between us."
Everyone followed him into the yard of the bamboo house, only to see something being dried in the sun on several winnowing baskets.
The women's club greeted everyone, "Hey, everyone, sit anywhere! There are only three chairs in the house, not enough, so just make do with what you have!"
As soon as Doctor Li entered the yard, he went straight to the things on the winnowing basket. After identifying them, he found that they were all good medicines, but unfortunately many of them were moldy.
Then he looked at the woman and asked, "Miss, are you a doctor too? Also, these medicines can't be used anymore, right? Many of them are spoiled and can't be dried well!"
The woman looked at Doctor Li and said, "Who said it was broken? You don't understand, I did it on purpose, it's very useful."
Then he looked up with a sense of accomplishment and said, "Also, let me tell you, my master is very famous, and I am her only disciple."
Doctor Li was a little skeptical when he heard that he was very famous, and immediately retorted: "Can he be as famous as our Fenglin Country's Divine Doctor Mu?"
"Is Doctor Mu very good? I don't think so, but I heard that he is very beautiful. Don't you think so?"
Everyone: “…” They have never seen it, but only ghosts know whether it is beautiful or not.
Doctor Li: "How do we know if she is beautiful? We have never seen her in person. But I heard she is a 42-year-old woman. How beautiful can she be?"
When the woman heard what Doctor Li said, she immediately asked angrily, "Who spread the rumor? How can Divine Doctor Mu be forty-two? She is obviously only thirty-two, still young, and she is also very beautiful. Old man, are you trying to discredit Divine Doctor Mu?"
Doctor Li waved his hand and said, "It's none of my business! It's just that people outside are saying this, but they all agree that Doctor Mu is the best doctor in the world, and no one can compare to her superb medical skills."
The woman calmed down with satisfaction after hearing what Dr. Li said.
Doctor Li then asked curiously, "Miss, you also know medical skills. I wonder how good your medical skills are? It just so happens that I, an old man, also know some medical skills. Do you want to learn from each other?"
The woman curled her lips: "No, you are not my opponent. Apart from my master, my medical skills are ranked third in Fenglin Country."
When everyone heard this, they looked at the woman, their eyes revealing: Just bragging!
The woman looked at the people with disbelief in their eyes and snorted coldly, "You don't believe it?"
Then he pointed at Shen Changan and said, "I can cure his legs."
