Chapter 57: Trapped in the Cave
Huang Xiaodou thought it was useless to hide, so he went back to the cave and called the other two.
"If you hide like this, even if you don't get eaten by spiders, I'm afraid you'll choke to death!" Huang Xiaodou said.
Senior Brother Severed Finger couldn't hide it for a long time, so he went out of the box directly at this time, and volunteered to split several wooden boxes.
"Wood is burn-resistant!" he said.
The senior sister covered the lower half of her face, raised her head from the box, and saw that the dogs in Duyan were trying their best to bite the straw out, so she also nodded and climbed out.
"But before that, let me ask you, where is my junior sister?" she asked, grabbing Huang Xiaodou, who was about to leave.
Huang Xiaodou didn't hide it from her, and said: "Before you came up with the idea of burning the fire, I hid her there, but I never saw her again when I came back afterwards." He pointed to the roof of the cave.
"What?!That's the vent! The smoke in the cave is still like this, and the vent is ......" She didn't dare to think about it, but said to Huang Xiaodou fiercely: "If there is anything wrong with my junior sister, I won't finish with you!"
Huang Xiaodou also chuckled in his heart.
"What are you all doing! Hurry up, the fire is going out!" shouted Duyan at the entrance of the cave.
Huang Xiaodou hurriedly hugged the last quilt over.
The night is darkened by the presence of these spiders.
The ring of fire at the entrance of the cave is getting smaller and smaller, but the smoke in the cave is getting thicker and thicker, and the nose is piercing.
Duyan was more or less scratched and bitten by the spider a few times, even if Huang Xiaodou was there, he didn't have time to let him cast a spell to burn the spider, and all of them used daggers to cut off the spider's body, leaving only eight claws to grasp on the flesh. Fortunately, it was autumn, and there was not much bare flesh and skin, and Duyan reacted relatively quickly, and many spiders were just scratching on his clothes.
Although everyone felt that time was like a year, but in fact, it was only a moment, and the senior sister who inquired about the vent suddenly said "ah".
Brother Severed Finger went over and asked her, "What's wrong?"
"Spider, spider!"
Sure enough, it was a spider that rolled out of the ventilation duct. However, it was already in a ball, and after a few strokes with his sword, he died.
When the two were in shock, a few more fell, and even if they were dead, the two panicked.
The two people at the entrance of the cave were busy with each other, and the two of them ran over again, scrambling and saying, "Inside, there are spiders in there!"
Huang Xiaodou was already busy with the fire roasting and his face was covered with sweat, and when he heard this, his back suddenly felt cold.
Duyan was also shocked, but he looked them up and down, and saw that there didn't seem to be a few bites, and asked, "How many are alive?"
The two shook their heads, cut off their fingers, and said, "Those who came in through the ventilation duct should have choked to death by the smoke." I'm worried, though......"
Duyan didn't listen to his next words, just muttered: "No wonder the smoke in the cave can't be discharged......"
Huang Xiaodou suddenly thought of the little senior sister, and there was a chill on her body, and she inevitably felt guilty and blamed herself.
The senior sister also thought so, her eyes became sad and resentful, staring at Huang Xiaodou who turned her back.
Duyan slapped off the spider that flew out of the fire, and said: "Don't go too in, the four of us are two outside, two of us are inside, and if something happens, remind each other." β
Several people nodded.
Brother Severed Finger walked to Duyan and added a wooden board to the fire, and the flames licked the wooden board, but I don't know what he did, and the wooden board ignited.
"Senior Brother Duyan, you and this junior brother should rest and rest. My sister and I take care of the fire. He said. As he spoke, he winked at the senior sister.
Huang Xiaodou didn't dare to face her senior sister, and when she saw her coming, she lowered her head and slipped into the hole.
Duyan also followed.
"Did you see that?" he whispered.
Huang Xiaodou came back to his senses, "What?" Then he looked inside the cave, thinking that he was talking about the spider in the vent, and said, "It's not a matter of time or time." β
Duyan said: "Yes." I could also see that the spiders were crawling in through the cornices sticking out of the hole. They want to take advantage, and they are really naΓ―ve. β
Huang Xiaodou heard it and slowly turned his face to look.
Above the entrance to the cave there was a long eave-like corner stretching out. The previous ring of fire was within this cornice, because the flames were as high as a wall and the smoke was so thick that even if a spider climbed up, it would choke to death from the heat and smoke. At this time, the fuel was replaced with the straw and wooden planks that are usually used for burning fires, and the smoke is not as lethal as before, even if there is the blessing of the wood system of the senior sister and the senior brother with severed fingers, but both of them have reservations, and they do not go all out, the height of the flame is not as high as before, and the spider has been suicidally flying towards the wall of fire, under the darkness before dawn, I don't know if its offensive will be more rapid!
"Are we just going to watch?" asked Huang Xiaodou.
Duyan smiled crookedly, looked at him, and whispered: "If we go to guard, we will die first." Seeing Huang Xiaodou looking straight over, the shock and horror in his eyes, he smiled a little jokingly. "Otherwise, your fire system can save us?"
Huang Xiaodou clenched his fists and gradually lowered his head.
For some reason, he firmly believed that if Chu Xin was here, it would not be the current situation.
Duyan's face was full of mocking smiles. He bent down and fell to the ground. Said: "All of these we are dealing with now are the larvae of gluttonous spiders, and when they are almost dead, it is very likely that there will be a female worm, which is the most difficult to deal with." If you want to live, listen to me and save your energy. β
Huang Xiaodou didn't say anything, but also lay on the ground, listening attentively.
Smoke interferes with vision and makes it difficult to breathe, but it does not interfere with hearing.
At this time, close your eyes and calm your mind, and the sounds around you will be infinitely amplified.
The spiders outside the cave are indeed decreasing, and most of them have climbed the mountain. In addition to this, there seem to be more spiders going up the hill on the other side, crawling down the vents. If you listen carefully to the distance, there seems to be a human voice. But the distance was too far for him to hear how many people there were, what they were doing.
"Hey!" the man next to him suddenly pushed him.
Huang Xiaodou opened his eyes. Duyan was very dissatisfied, and his words were full of anger, "Let you save your effort, but I didn't say let you sleep and rest!"
Huang Xiaodou coughed twice and said, "I didn't sleep." I'm listening to voices. β
"Listen to the voice?" Du Yan wiped the tears from his eyes. He kept staring in, for fear that he wouldn't see a tiny trace of blue light, and then he died. He snorted in disbelief and said, "What do you hear?"
"There are people nearby. Huang Xiaodou said, "No, it shouldn't be said to be nearby, they are across the mountain from us, I can't hear exactly." β
Duyan looked suspicious, and listened carefully, except for the sound of the two people at the entrance of the cave busy adding firewood to kill monsters, there was only the sound of spider corpses falling from the vent. He looked at the dark and foggy appearance around him, and did not believe Huang Xiaodou's nonsense. But he was afraid that he would be lazy and fall asleep, so he patiently asked. "It won't be Senior Sister Xiaomin. β
Huang Xiaodou shook his head with a serious expression and said, "No." The voice was low and seemed to be talking, at least one of which was male. The number of people is at least two. β
Seeing what he said, Du Yan said again: "Since you can hear far away, can you spread your voice or control people's thoughts?"
Huang Xiaodou looked at him like a monster and said, "What do you think of me?"
Duyan Monster laughed a few times and said: "As far as I know, the demon is the advanced five senses, and the powerful demon will even spread the voice from a distance, intimidate the other party, and finally achieve the goal of controlling people." β
Huang Xiaodou was stunned when he heard it.
"Is that still human?"
Duyan adjusted his lying posture and continued to stare ahead: "Naturally, it's not human." β
Huang Xiaodou saw that he didn't mean to say any more, imagining the appearance of the demon in his heart, and his ears unconsciously listened around.
After a while, Du Yan said nervously: "Why did this spider fall faster?"
Huang Xiaodou replied along the words: "Yes, all the spiders seem to be desperately trying to climb into the cave again!"
As she was talking, the senior sister at the entrance of the cave said happily: "God, it's dawn!"
However, it didn't take long for him to be happy, and he was bitten on the arm by a spider that pounced on him.
"Why did the spider suddenly attack more ferociously?" said Senior Brother Severed Finger anxiously. Fortunately, they didn't have long to fill the position, and they still have some physical strength and mana.
Duyan jumped up from the ground and said, "Oh no, it's dawn, they're going to go into the hole!
Huang Xiaodou pointed to the place where the firewood and grass were placed, and said, "Senior Brother Ansi is still inside!"
"It's too late!" Duyan picked up his dog and ran out. "Hurry up and get on the magic weapon, let's rush out together!"
Senior Brother Severed Finger replied, "Okay! I'll shout three-two-one, everyone is ready!"
Several people were in a posture of rushing out. Huang Xiaodou jumped anxiously.
"But, but Senior Brother Ansi ......"
Du Yan said angrily: "The poison in his original body is very deep! If we save him, it will only be a drag!"
"But, but ......"
"Don't go, if you don't go, we'll go!" the senior sister yelled urgently. "Senior brother, quick, count down!"
"No, I mean ......"
"Three, two," he glanced at Huang Xiaodou, gritted his teeth and said, "One!" These three counted him very quickly.
The three of them showed their magic powers at the same time, and rushed out together with the firelight!
"I can't fly!" Huang Xiaodou said before he spoke, gritting his teeth for a while! In the future, at this critical moment of life and death, you must not care about face!
Seeing that the wall of fire at the entrance of the cave gradually became smaller, the spider swarm poured into the cave like a tide, up and down, left and right. Huang Xiaodou, who was about to rush out, was immediately blocked back!
Entering the hole, the spiders in the vent fall like an hourglass. In addition to the dead corpses, some of the spiders that fell at this time were half-dead, some of them didn't move after a while, and some of them ran around crookedly after a while!
This situation of wanting to escape but having nowhere to escape made Huang Xiaodou cry in despair.
"Chu Xin!Hua Zhi Fan! Hua Zhi Fan-" He cried and shouted, tears and snot in a mess.
There was not a single box left in the cave! His and Chu Xin's luggage were also thrown on the ground. I picked it up, and the bag of silver coins, which was heavy.
He cried even more sadly.
"Only if you live, can you have a life!"
Huang Xiaodou tried to cast a spell to burn off the spider in front of him, while laughing at himself.
Master is right, he is indeed the master of the lifeless flower!
Panicking, he was always confused in casting and retracting spells, and soon his body burned holes everywhere.
He originally wanted to go to Senior Brother Si'an, and maybe he could survive for a while while with the quilt burned. Or maybe you can put on a quilt and roll out of this pile of spiders...... What if Senior Brother Si'an wakes up? He should have a flying magic weapon......
There were a lot of ideas, but the spider just crawled to his side, trying to break through several times, but was still blocked.
Are you really going to die here?
