Skilled in managing a house

Inside the Lingxi Cave.

Chu Zhongtian sat on the bed, and everyone else stood aside. There were also a few men in black, connecting some hemp ropes together.

The hemp ropes were quickly connected, and a man in black said: "Master, the ropes are all connected."

"How long can it be?" Chu Zhongtian asked.

"It can be fifty meters." The man in black replied.

"Fifty meters..." Chu Zhongtian hesitated and said, "In general, it should be enough..."

"My subordinate once participated in the excavation of the tunnel. The length of the rope used to be about 80 meters." The man in black replied.

"In other words, there are still thirty meters to go." Chu Zhongtian said.

"Yes." The man in black bowed and said.

"It's only thirty meters away. It doesn't seem to be a big deal..." Chu Zhongtian glanced at everyone and said, "Would any of you be willing to go down to the deep pit on the top of the mountain to check..."

Everyone present looked at each other, but no one dared to say anything.

There is a deep pit of about 80 meters, and the rope is only 50 meters. What a joke. What's more important is that the hemp rope is not thick enough, and it is connected. If a person holds the rope and goes down, the rope is likely to break during the pulling process.

You know, the original rope on the top of the mountain was about the thickness of a wrist, but this one is about the thickness of a finger.

Seeing that no one took the initiative to ask for help, Chu Zhongtian had a look of displeasure on his face and said, "What's wrong with you? Why are you all so timid..." At this point, he looked at Sun Minghua, "Sun Minghua, except for me, Besides, you are the strongest, otherwise what if you go..."

"Headmaster... After the last fierce battle, my strength has not recovered, so I may not be able to take on this important task..." Sun Minghua said quickly and aggrievedly.

"The vitality has not been restored... As far as I know, that's where the two boys fell last time, but they were still safe. With your cultivation, you won't be inferior to them... "Chu Zhongtian said coldly.

"If we go down... I think I can jump down directly... But if I want to come back up, the height of thirty meters... I really can't reach it..." Sun Minghua said timidly.

The height of thirty meters is indeed not something ordinary people can climb up. The most important thing is that Sun Minghua has no confidence in this piece of rope.

"Do you think you have to go down by yourself?" Chu Zhongtian's voice became even colder.

This time, everyone was even more afraid to speak out. But everyone knows that the only person who has the ability to go down here and climb thirty meters to grab the rope is probably Chu Zhongtian.

But if Chu Zhongtian is killed, it will be impossible for Chu Zhongtian to go down. The first person he was worried about was Sun Minghua. What if he went down alone, what would Sun Minghua do to the wall?

Moreover, he couldn't kill Sun Minghua, because he really didn't have anyone reliable at his disposal. Except for himself, Sun Minghua has the highest cultivation level.

At present, there are really not many ropes in Laojun's palace, because most of the ropes are in the warehouse down the mountain. Warehouses on the mountain generally do not contain useless things. These ropes are still used to tie boxes.

At this stall, he suddenly heard shouts from outside the cave, "Is Headmaster Chu here? We want to see Headmaster Chu!" "Is Headmaster Chu here?" "We want to see Headmaster Chu!" …

There were quite a few people who heard the shouts. Chu Zhongtian could naturally guess that these were most likely the guests on the island.

He stood up and said, "Let's go and have a look."

Chu Zhongtian took the lead to walk out of the cave. A group of subordinates, like stars holding the moon, surrounded Chu Zhongtian and walked out of the cave.

However, Chu Zhongtian really doesn’t have many men left, and the number of people he has reduced is almost twenty.

After he walked out, he immediately saw a group of guests headed by a middle-aged man of medium height standing not far in front.

"Headmaster Chu, it's been a long time!" The middle-aged man directly raised his fist towards Chu Zhongtian.

Chu Zhongtian also clasped his fists and said very politely: "I don't know why you suddenly came to Lingxi Cave. Do you have anything to do with Chu?"

This time, he did not call himself "I".

"It's like this. Headmaster Chu told us before that as long as the sea water recedes, he will take out the boat and everyone will leave the island together. Now the sea water has receded, so we came to ask Headmaster Chu if we should take the boat Take it out..." The middle-aged man also said calmly.

"The sea water has receded..." Chu Zhongtian groaned and said: "If this is the case, it is appropriate for Chu to take out the boat. After all, I have to leave too. It's just that the puppy hasn't been found yet. I don't know if you can wait another day or two." "

"I'm afraid this won't work..." said the red-faced middle-aged man among the guests: "To be honest with Master Chu, someone caused trouble in the dining hall today, and many heads were hanged there... On this island, there are I won’t say more about who they are... So, we still hope to leave here as soon as possible..."

"What?" After hearing this, Chu Zhongtian was shocked and said, "You said someone hung many heads in the dining hall. Whose heads were they..."

"They are all the guests who died before. Their bodies were not collected. We just went to see them, and ten people's heads were chopped off..." the red-faced middle-aged man said.

"That is because the other party deliberately sows discord and wants us to kill each other. I also hope that you will not be fooled... To be honest, even my people have been harassed. It must be the remnants of the traitor Qin Xiyun..." Chu Zhongtian said immediately.

"We don't want to care about whether there are other forces on the island, and we don't want to have any disputes with Headmaster Chu. You said that someone is sowing discord and wants us to kill each other. This is not impossible... But, we are here After discussion, I hope that Master Chu can prove his innocence, and the way to prove it is to take out the boat... If Master Chu is not in a hurry to leave, then we can take a step first. In this case, we will naturally not kill each other. I don’t know what Headmaster Chu thinks..." The middle-aged man of medium height said in a consultative tone.

Although it was a discussion, his attitude was quite tough. Look at what he meant. If Chu Zhongtian dared to say no, he would probably start a fight immediately.

Of course, Chu Zhongtian was also afraid. Although he was not afraid of this middle-aged man of medium height, he was even sure that he could defeat him in one move. But this would inevitably lead to a group fight, and at that time, everyone on his side would most likely die. Even if you are lucky enough to kill all your opponents, what's the point of being left with a polished commander?

"Hahahaha..." After thinking about it for a while, Chu Zhongtian couldn't help laughing and said: "What you said makes sense... In addition, I suddenly remembered something. This ship is a large ocean-going yacht. I want to move it normally. Going up the mountain is simply impossible... Now they are just some parts that need to be assembled... To be honest, if there are enough technicians, it can be assembled in half a day, but right now, I only have one left here Even if there are drawings for a welder and a riveter, it is not that easy... Otherwise, we all will work together to assemble the ship... With our combined efforts, it will probably take two or three days..."
