Travel through troubled times and escape famine with the system

As the three of them talked, they soon heard the sound of a rushing river through the woods.

"Uncle, turn the corner ahead and you will reach the Cliff Bridge."

Lu Ming walked in front and shouted excitedly.

At this time, Hu Laojiu's curiosity had been aroused by the introductions made by Lu You and his sister and brother along the way. When he heard that they were about to arrive, he couldn't help but want to sit up and watch.

Seeing Hu Laojiu like this, Lu You behind him hurriedly reminded him with a smile.

"Don't worry, uncle. When we get to the bridge, I'll let you see it clearly."

As they were talking, the three of them turned at the end of the path and walked up a gentle slope.

"This cliff bridge was formed by the erosion of the mountain by floods. What we are standing on now is the remaining half of the hill."

Lu You explained to Hu Laojiu with a smile.

At this time, the sound of the rushing river was extremely clear, and even the air was filled with the fishy smell of the river.

Lu You gritted his teeth and carried Hu Laojiu up the hillside. The moment he saw the rushing river below, he finally let go of the stretcher armrest and sat down on the ground.

"Uncle, take a good look, this is the Cliff Bridge."

Hu Laojiu stood up with the help of Lu Ming and looked. His eyes widened in shock at the scene before him.

Although I had heard about the magic of the Cliff Bridge before, it was still exciting to see it with my own eyes.

The river here is estimated to be more than twenty feet wide. The river water rolls down from the distant peaks, and the sound is like a herd of horses galloping or thunder.

The river is wide and the water is fast-flowing, so it is impossible to build a bridge here.

But under the feet of several people, the huge rock that protruded was more than ten feet long and almost connected to the other side.

Although this cliff bridge is half natural and half man-made, in fact, the artificially built bridge deck is less than five meters long.

“This is truly a miracle!”

Looking at the rushing river water under his feet, Hu Laojiu couldn't help but sigh.

"Of course!" Lu Ming said proudly, "Uncle, you don't know, it is said that the flood..."

Lu Ming was chatting with Hu Laojiu, but Lu You was looking behind him.

Along the way, what she was most worried about was that Hu Laojiu and his companions were following her.

But now that I have arrived at the bridgehead of the cliff, I haven't seen a single person. It seems that I have been too suspicious.

However, for safety reasons, Lu You still didn't dare to relax. After all, the radiation range of this system was only about ten meters.

If the other party is hanging far behind, that is also very possible.

Thinking of this, Lu You swiftly picked up the stretcher, stood up and walked towards Hu Laojiu and the others.

"Uncle Hu, the terrain is much easier to walk on the bridge from the back. Let Lu Ming help you walk."

Hu Laojiu had no injury on his leg, so he nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry, as long as I don't run, my legs can still walk."

"That's good."

Lu You took the lead and walked towards the bridge, turning back from time to time to look back.

The bridge is nearly twenty meters long. If we walk to the end, even if Hu Laojiu's accomplices show up, it will be useless.

At a distance of fifty or sixty meters, even if they were holding arrows, they would not pose much threat to himself and Lu Ming.

But if he really took Hu Laojiu to the other side, he would also give up the chance to get rid of Hu Laojiu.

Just when Lu You was struggling, Lu Ming's puzzled voice came from behind.

"Second sister, what are you always looking back at?"

He turned around and looked at Lu Ming, only to see this bastard standing next to Hu Laojiu, looking at him with an innocent face.

This guy must be a fool, right?

Lu You complained helplessly in his heart, then walked to the edge of the bridge, bent down and looked down.

"I was just checking to see if there was anyone around!"

After saying this without any reason, Lu You ignored the two people behind him and began to concentrate on watching the tumbling river water below.

Seeing Lu You behaving so strangely, Lu Ming and Hu Laojiu were both confused.

"She is..."

Hu Laojiu looked at Lu Ming in confusion and asked.

At this time, Lu Ming was also confused and had no idea what his second sister was doing.

Walking to Lu You's side, Lu Ming leaned over to look down, but found that there was nothing strange except the churning river water.

"Second sister! What are you looking at?"

"Silence!" Lu You whispered, "Didn't you see a big golden fish in the waves?"

Big golden fish?

Hearing Lu You's words, Hu Laojiu next to him couldn't help but move closer.

"Where is it? Let me take a look!"

Hu Laojiu came up to Lu You and said excitedly.

Lu You didn't even look up, but raised his hand and pointed to the water under the bridge.

"Just now, it was right there in the waves. Look! It's right there!"

Following Lu You's exclamation, Lu Ming and Hu Laojiu both looked towards the place where Lu You was pointing.

"where?"

Lu Ming stared at the churning water with wide eyes and asked in confusion.

"Uncle, you see..."

Just as Lu Ming was about to ask, he felt a dark shadow flash past him.

Hu Laojiu, who was supposed to be squatting beside him, was actually lying on his back in the air, falling towards the bridge with a look of horror on his face.

"I……"

Pfft! ! !

Accompanied by a muffled sound, Hu Laojiu only had time to leave behind a roar before disappearing in the rushing river.

Lu Ming widened his eyes and looked at Lu You next to him.

"Second sister! Kick Uncle Hu down..."

"No!" Lu You interrupted Lu Ming and said, "He slipped and fell!"

"But you haven't taken your foot back yet?"

Lu You looked down at his right foot, then slowly retracted it.

"I don't understand what you are saying!!"

"save!!!"

A loud shout came from the river. Lu Ming turned around and saw Hu Laojiu struggling in the river.

However, at this time, Hu Laojiu was like other waves in the river. He only floated up for a moment and then disappeared again under the surface of the river.

"Second sister! Why did you kick Uncle Hu into the river?"

"What Uncle Hu? We've never met him before!"

After Lu You finished speaking, he turned and ran towards the village.

Although Lu Ming wanted to save people, the river was rushing fast and he could no longer find Hu Laojiu, so he had to give up.

…………

When Lu Ming rushed back home, he saw Lu You sitting in the yard drinking tea.

"Second sister! You must give me an explanation for what happened just now!!"

Before entering the yard, Lu Ming had already spoken angrily.

Lu You pointed to the mourning hall in the main house.

"If you want to explain, go kneel in front of your father's spirit and tell Lu Yi what happened just now."

"Kneel down then!"

Lu Ming placed the bow and arrow on his back on the table and strode towards the mourning hall.

At this time, Lu Yi looked at Lu You with a puzzled look on his face.

"Second sister, what happened on the mountain?"

Lu You's hand holding the teacup was trembling slightly, and it was obvious that he had not yet recovered from the tension.

"Go and help your elder brother solve his puzzle. If you can't figure out the connection, then kneel down with him!"
