Chapter Seventy-Two: Life Hangs by a Thread
"W-does it make any difference?"
Deng Yun still didn't quite understand what I meant.
I didn't bother to explain it to her, so I said directly: "Look at it!"
"Although those corpses have not been found yet, or even if they are found, they are somewhat frightened because of the stream and flowing water below, but soon they will boldly try for their prey!"
Deng Yun finally understood what I meant, and her eyes widened in disbelief.
"You mean to say...... They're going to fall from above?"
"No!
Deng Yun was so frightened that he couldn't do it, and now he followed my pace and also accelerated, only to hear the sound of crackling water echoing in the cave, splashing in all directions.
At the same time, the sound from the other side of the wall made me feel even more frightened, and I even heard the sound of something falling into the water.
Probably because he was too scared, Deng Yun cried directly, crying and running at the same time.
"We're not going to die in there, I'm so scared, woo!"
Hearing crying at this time makes me a little irritable, but it's inevitable that she's scared as a girl, and I can understand it somewhat.
I couldn't comfort her at this time, I didn't even know if I would get out alive, let alone take her with me.
I was able to run with her now, instead of leaving her here to fend for herself.
It's not like I haven't thought about letting her go here and leaving on my own.
If I did, I would have a much better chance of escaping, and I would have been able to escape without any interruption if I had used this woman as bait.
But I still didn't.
It was so immoral, and after weighing it up, I felt like I still couldn't do it.
If it were Deng Sanke or the real Deng Yun, I think they would do it in order to save their lives.
It's the same even if it's a brother or sister.
"No, it definitely won't work like this. ”
As I ran, I shook the two surrounding walls with the light of my phone.
These bugs are so close to us that we can't outrun them.
They are faster than those termites.
"What then? They're still there...... We can't outrun them!"
I looked at Deng Yun seriously, she was suddenly a little scared, and quickly took two steps back.
"You won't, you're not going to use me as bait to lure them away!"
Deng Yun shook her head vigorously, snot and tears flowed out, at this moment of life and death, she didn't care about any image or disfigurement, she took the sleeve of her clothes and began to wipe it indiscriminately.
I didn't speak, and when I saw this, Deng Yun was even more frightened, and he took several steps back, almost falling into the water.
"You, don't use me as bait, I won't cause you trouble......"
I sighed and walked over to help her up, but she trembled and tried to pass her hand, when she suddenly thought of something and shook it off.
"I don't use you as bait. ”
I said, "But you have to promise me one thing, cooperate with me, otherwise neither of us will be able to get out." ”
When Deng Yun heard this, he immediately burst into tears and laughed.
He immediately grabbed my hand and stood up sharply.
"As long as you don't use me as bait, let me do anything!"
"When I say one, two, three, in a moment, you run forward with all your might, and don't care what you hear. ”
Deng Yun nodded heavily, "Okay, what about you?"
"I still have my own things to do, and you have to give me your phone, and the lock screen of your phone will be turned on for me first. ”
Deng Yun turned on the lock screen of his phone and handed it to me.
"Okay, one-two-three, you can run forward now, and I'll take care of the rest. ”
"But ......"
Seeing that Deng Yun was still a little hesitant, I wanted to scold her.
"If you don't leave, you'll die. ”
"Then you have to be careful!"
Deng Yun threw down this sentence and quickly ran away.
As soon as I saw Deng Yun running almost far, these insects really chased after Deng Yun's voice.
It turns out that they rely not only on smell, but also on sound.
It seems that they are more sensitive to sound than smell.
After confirming this matter, I smiled slightly, and then the rest of the matter would be much easier.
I shook it with the light of my phone, and there were still a few corpses left.
The first reaction of these corpses was to chase after the place where the sound came from, but compared to climbing on the wall, they were more cautious and crawled more slowly, and there were even corpses who accidentally fell from above.
These accidental falls are the ones that need to be guarded against the most.
Falling into the water does not drown immediately.
However, it causes a series of conditioned reflexes, and if the corpse is not dead, it will float on the surface of the water, and if it touches something, it will climb up.
That's what I have to be careful with, if I do accidentally touch a corpse and it climbs up my trouser leg, I won't feel it at all because it's so small.
If it does crawl on me, I won't be able to notice it at all, unless it does get into my body, and then it will be too late.
I have to move faster.
I felt that it was almost there, and I took out the phone that Deng Yun gave me before.
After that, I turned up her volume to the maximum, and there were many songs in it, and when I opened its page, I was a little stunned.
Her phone page is a very beautiful girl, this girl seems to have been seen somewhere.
But for a while, I couldn't think of it, maybe it was her idol.
I quickly opened the music interface, selected the loudest music in it, clicked on it, and quickly threw it into the distance.
After all this was done, I ran forward without looking back.
Although Deng Yun is a fast runner, he is obviously not as fast as me.
I sped up and quickly caught up with Deng Yun.
Deng Yun obviously couldn't run anymore, and he was very surprised when he saw me again.
When I took a picture of it with my phone, I noticed that the bugs were all running in one direction neatly.
That is, the direction behind us.
I know how far I can throw my phone, but fortunately her phone is still strong, even if I threw it hard, it didn't break so far, otherwise, I would have made all this in vain.
I saw Deng Yun resting in place panting, and quickly grabbed her wrist.
"No, I really can't run!" Deng Yun panted.
I don't care what she says, now is the time when my life hangs by a thread, and there is a good chance that I will die here.
