Chapter 39: Peaks and Loops
John looked at me, and I understood what he meant.
I nodded heavily at him and said, "Help, you go find some clothes." ”
John hurriedly turned and ran away, and the woman in the cage didn't care about my logo, and I stepped forward to check the lock of the cell door.
This chain should have been before, but this lock is definitely the current one, and fortunately I brought the captain's sword.
"Stand back. I said, drawing my knife.
After a few strokes at the lock, I slashed it down, and the lock snapped, and I hurriedly stepped forward and pulled the chain open.
The second daughter rushed out of the door, but she didn't dare to walk away, but knelt directly in front of me and kowtowed to me to thank me.
John also came back with his clothes, and the two of them hurriedly handed them their clothes and lifted them up from the ground.
Looking at the cage here, one of the women in it is no longer good, and the other must be completely stupid with a dull gaze.
I raised the knife again, and the second daughter took the clothes and got into it and put it on the woman, and the woman was at the mercy of the two of them, and let the second daughter help her out.
"That. John pointed to another woman in the cave.
"I hope it can be saved. I said.
After saying that, John got in, wrapped the woman in his clothes, and hugged her directly in his arms.
"Let's go. I said as I walked forward.
Fortunately, all three women were still able to walk, and although they stumbled a little, their survival instinct supported them at the moment.
I glanced back at the woman with a dull gaze, still starless, and let the second daughter lead me forward.
When we came to the entrance of the cave, we let the second girl who could walk go down first, and then tied the injured one with a rope and slowly lowered it, and so did the woman with dull eyes.
Finally all six of us landed successfully, and we hurried to the agreed place, not expecting that time would pass so quickly, and Paul was already waiting for us there.
"What is this?" asked Paul, looking at the four daughters, in surprise.
"Let's go back first. I said.
Knowing that this was not the time to get to the bottom of things, Paul hurriedly stepped forward to help us with the women, while John still carried the seriously injured man and the others slowly towards our house.
In fact, I also know that saving these women, the fact that we are still alive will be completely exposed, and even those people will come to us for trouble.
Saving them is undoubtedly putting us in danger again, maybe to make up for the guilt of killing people in my heart, maybe the kindness in my heart has not been extinguished, maybe I want to preserve the last humanity.
No matter what, saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter.
Seeing that I was halfway through the journey, hope was in sight, but there was a noise in the woods not far behind me, and I thought that the group was chasing after me, and hurriedly led everyone to hide behind a large rock.
"Don't make a sound. I whispered.
After saying that, I poked my head out and looked out, only to see that the trees in the distance were shaking violently, and it seemed that it was not the work of man, and I was wondering when I saw the zebra-like pattern again.
I was so startled that I didn't dare to make any more movements, and even my breathing slowed down, and as the figure slowly walked out of the dense woods, I finally saw it in its entirety.
Isn't it the animal that is as big as a bison, with a body like a dog's head and a fox's long tail, and zebra patterns on its body?
If we run now, we won't be able to outrun it, I slowly retracted.
Seeing me in a cold sweat, John asked in a low voice, "Are those people chasing me?"
"No, it's the wolf. I said in a deep voice.
Paul and John changed color at the same time, but the women were confused.
"How did that thing get here?" asked Paul, somewhat puzzled.
"I don't know, maybe I've found traces of a human being. I whispered.
"What now?" said John.
Before I could reply, the younger woman had already stuck out her head curiously, and before I could stop it, the woman was so frightened by what she saw before me that she let out a scream.
I thought to myself, and was about to make a move, when a deafening roar followed, and I felt dizzy when the sound reached my ears, but I didn't expect this creature to have this ability.
"I'll get it away, and you'll run. I dropped the words and rushed out.
I don't know why I did it, but I did.
When the wolf saw me, he roared again, and I was almost unsteady on my feet, but I finally managed to stabilize my body, and I hurriedly raised my bow and arrows.
But before I could shoot an arrow, the wolf was already rushing at me, and I hurriedly rolled on the spot, stood up and ran away.
If it weren't for my daily exercise, I wouldn't have been able to escape at this moment, and I don't know if it was the survival instinct that stimulated my potential, I just felt the wind under my feet.
Even though I felt like I was running fast, the thing behind me was getting closer, and I could even feel its breath a few times.
However, in this dense jungle, its size was not dominant, and I leaned down into a wood, and the pressure behind me suddenly decreased, but I did not dare to stop.
I didn't even dare to look back, because the sound of the trees crackling and cracking behind me had already told me that the thing was still chasing me.
I wanted to use the woods to stop it, but I underestimated its ferocity, and the heavy breath behind me was getting closer.
But now I am no longer the cowardly boy, it is not the first time that I have wandered on the edge of life and death, I quickly opened my gaze and searched for places around me to hide.
A dog-like cave was instantly locked by my gaze, I reached out and grabbed the trunk of the tree in front of me, quickly changed direction, and the spotted wolf behind me was also directly shaken down by me.
Its massive body crushed many tree trunks at once, and it was in this lightning and flint that I managed to burrow into the ground.
But the spotted wolf was so fooled by me that he was completely furious, and chased after the dog hole like crazy, and kept digging with his two paws.
I didn't dare to stop, and kept crawling deeper into the dog's hole, the wolf's claws were so powerful that I felt like I was going to catch my feet several times.
It was estimated that a few misses had stimulated it, and it let out that deafening roar again, which I could still withstand in the vast space outside, but now I was in this dog hole just over a man's width.
The power of its roar was magnified countless times, and the sound made my chest suffolate, and I passed out as soon as it was dark, and I was still crawling forward with difficulty before closing my eyes.
"I can't die..."
When I woke up, I don't know how long it had been, but I tried to move my hands and feet, and it was okay, they were all there.
I raised my hand and looked at my electronic watch, it was already half past seven in the evening, which means that it will soon be dark, and I am not sure where I am now, but it is certain that it will be half an hour, and I will definitely not be able to go back.
The spotted wolf must have already left, and I looked back at the gouged road behind me, and I was afraid that if I hadn't climbed a few more times, I would have been buried in the wolf's mouth.
Because my current position is full of rocks, and the rest of the road is full of dirt, but now is not the time to think about that, I can only move on.
I kept crawling, I didn't care about the worn hands and feet, I didn't want to die in such a dog hole, even if I wanted to die, I would fight those monsters with real knives and guns.
Fortunately, the road in front of me has become wider, and I have been able to switch from crawling to a half-squatting position.
I fumbled and took out the flashlight in my bag, fortunately, I didn't dare to use it normally, the flashlight was still the same, and there were many traces of excavation on the stone wall in front of me, and it seemed that this hole did not look like a natural formation.
I couldn't help but think of the treasure mentioned in the captain's diary again, since there was no cave to save people, maybe it was hidden, could it be hidden here?
Although the treasure is not as valuable as a bowl of water, after all, I grew up in the real world, and the treasure is still attractive to me.
Then the light quickened my pace, and as I expected, there was a large stone gate at the end, and behind this stone gate was the treasure house.
I have to admire the wisdom of the ancients, the stone door in front of me is closed very tightly, and the stone surface is very smooth, this stone should be made of local materials.
But that wasn't what I was supposed to think about right now, because the stone door was closed in front of me, and there seemed to be some voice behind me, heavy breathing.
