Chapter 224: Saving with Life
After the bright light, people slowly opened their eyes, only to see several black shadows under the water fleeing the water at a very fast speed to the invisible distance, just when everyone was glad that this storm was over, the last raft in the team was suddenly cut in half, and the five people on it fell into the water and shouted for help!
"What? Is there anything else behind?!" Fujiwara reached into his backpack again and fumbled, but it was the last flashbang that was thrown out just now, and there was no weapon that made a strong light, so I am afraid that it would not be so easy to drive away those underwater monsters.
"Help!"
Seeing the danger behind him, Xia Chuan suddenly called the boy in front of him to stop the raft, knelt at the end and stretched out his hand to the woman in the water, at the same time, a large splash was stirred up from the water, and the people who fell into the water swam frantically to Xia Chuan's raft.
"Roarβ"
Four tentacles full of misshapen mouths burst out of the air, holding themselves to the center of the cavern by holding themselves to the stone walls on either side.
No one dared to look back, just climbed up the raft towards Xia Chuan in one go, but such a fragile raft carrying five people was already the limit, coupled with the woman Xia Chuan pulled up, the raft began to click from then on, many sawdust and vines tied to the wood scattered, and the end soon showed signs of loosening.
"Miu, our raft can't withstand so many people!" Momozawa looked at the end of the cracked raft in horror, and if it continued like this, the raft would break down! In a panic, she kicked the man who was trying to climb up in the jaw, and he almost fell into the water as he almost boarded the raft, swinging his hands and feet in a panic.
"Hey, stinky girl, what are you doing!" the man rubbed his chin, and just as he was in a swimming position, a tentacle suddenly wrapped around his arm, and his dense mouth was biting his arm, and a large amount of blood gushed out of the wound!
"Uhhh
The cold water paralyzed his senses, so he had to use his other hand to push out of the water and make gestures for help to the people in front of him.
"Gui Liang!" The young man swimming in front seemed to sense that his friend was in trouble, and immediately turned around and took out the dagger hidden in his pocket and stabbed it at the tentacle that grabbed him, "Bastard, let him go!"
"Uhhh
The dagger stabbed the tentacles so hard that the blood-stained mouths seemed to feel pain, and they let go of the man's hand with a brush, and at this moment, he immediately fled away with his companion. Knowing that Xia Chuan's raft could no longer bear so much weight, he had no choice but to call for help from the raft in front of him.
The water was bitterly cold, and the man named Gui Liang lost consciousness again, and dragged him under the water with all his might, and had to use 120% of his strength to swim to the raft in front of him, and at this time his limbs gradually stiffened, his heart beat faster and faster, and the pores of his whole body were trembling.
The people who fell into the water with them had already found their rafts nearby, and they had to find the raft that still carried five people before they could ask them to take them in.
"Hah...... Ha ...... "There was a layer of frost on the man's eyelashes, and he vaguely felt that his heart was gradually failing, but no matter what, Gui Liang must be sent to a safe place, in that case, he would die without regrets."
"Be careful!" Xia Chuan's voice sounded behind him, the man's neck was already frozen and he couldn't turn back, but the sound of water behind him already showed that death was not far from him, he tried his best to swim forward, and at the same time closed his eyes.
"Phew!"
The loud gunfire was particularly loud under the spread of the water hole, judging from the sound, this is not the power of an ordinary pistol!
"Boy, hurry up!" the F on the lead raft shouted, and at the same time replaced a bullet, and fired another shot at the monster behind the young man with the sniper rifle in his hand, the bullet was quite powerful, and it hit the head accurately, and shot it into the water, but it didn't seem to be its vital part, and it still writhed quickly after falling into the water.
"F, if they can't catch up, kill him. Hanashima said lightly.
"Why?"
"Those monsters seem to be attracted to blood, and if the two of them don't make it up, they can't just die in the water, and letting them have a little blood can help us get out of this hellish place. There was no human touch in Hanashima's eyes, and he still had the same smile on his face as before.
"I see. F's fingers on the trigger trembled a little, he didn't want to kill the young man who had worked so hard, but he didn't dare not obey Hanajima's order.
"Phew!"
The bullet of the sniper rifle slowed down the monster's movement again, and by this time the man had swam to the edge of the fourth raft and forcefully lifted Gui Liang up, and Ibaraki on the raft immediately took Gui Liang's hand and sent him to the raft.
"Uh...... Have I reached my limit......" The man had completely lost his strength after sending his companion onto the raft with all his might, and could only let his body sink to the bottom, "This kindness has finally reached it to this day......
"Wow-"
A hand suddenly reached into the icy water, and grabbed the man's hand that was about to go away, and the amazing power burst out from the muscles, only to feel his body rushing to the water, the man woke up again, the pulse of his heart recovered a little, and he looked at the raft, and the hand that grabbed him turned out to be Gui Liang, who was looking at himself in horror, and he didn't feel at ease until a few seconds later.
"Nan, give me a good life, hurry up and go to the raft in front!"
There seemed to be a fire of survival burning in his heart, Nan nodded vigorously, and quickly swam onto Yang Xiaokai's raft under the cover of F, so that he was finally out of danger, and no one died was already the best result.
"Xiaokai, is the asbestos cloth belt?" Samusa broke off a lot of dry dead branches from the edge of the raft and held them in the palm of his hand.
"Hmm. Yang Xiaokai took out a piece of asbestos cloth about half a meter from the side of the backpack, spread it on the raft, and then lit the firewood in Shamuzuo's hand, so that Nan, who had just climbed up, approached, two-thirds of his body had been frozen into ice, and it would be slightly better with these fires.
Nan's age is slightly younger than Hades, about twenty-two years old, to be honest, the action just now shocked everyone, even if he gave up his own life to save others, there really is such a person in this world.
"Mr. Jinuchi, are you a little better?" Xia Cheng asked in a low voice as he watched the ice slag on Nan's eyelashes gradually melt and his face recovered a lot.
"Well, it's much better, thank you, and feel free to come to me if you need help in the future. β
"Don't take such risks in the future, thanks to good luck you both survived, a little less lucky, I'm afraid you're already sinking in the water or being shot by someone. Samusa crouched down and added firewood to her backpack, which always seemed to contain something different from others, and correspondingly, little food.
"What do you mean?" asked Nan, puzzled.
"The monsters that attack us will be attracted to blood, and I think if you don't succeed in catching up, those guys in front of you will definitely find a way to get the two of you to die here, and use your blood to attract those monsters to stop chasing us. β
Nan was silent for a moment, he knew that Fujiwara and his gang were not good, and Saki Sa's words were also very probable, but it would definitely happen, it seemed that this world was not just those monsters, there were many more to prevent.
"You rest here, we're already leaving the center of the water hole, and it won't be long before we see the exit. Samusa looked at the flames on the raft, which should be able to burn to Nan's strength and body heat.
"Boss, those things didn't catch up again. Fujiwara checked the surroundings and reported to Hanajima.
"Wipe the blood off the back of your neck, or you'll get into trouble again. Hanashima reminded him and sat down at the front of the raft, "This world...... It's getting more and more interesting. β
The team barely made it past the cold in the center of the cave, and the temperature rose back to its previous level.
"Is it already nine o'clock in the evening? Sakisa, it's more time wasted than expected. Hades sighed.
"Life is much more important than time, and even if we leave here earlier, we may not be able to continue our journey when we get outside, and ...... We don't know exactly where the outside leads, and we can't judge this kind of thing, so we can only pray that there won't be another Longtan tiger's den outside the exit. β
"Sister, do you want to eat?"
"I'm not hungry yet. Sakuruma lay on her side on the raft, her weakness still not dissipating, "Kai, if I've always been like this, you'll ......"
"I will take care of you until you recover, and Saki Sasa will always find a cure. Yang Xiaokai didn't let Sakuruma continue, her second half of the sentence would definitely not sound good, it was better to let her dispel this idea as soon as possible.
Sakurama smiled softly, closed her eyes and said, "Kai, I'm hungry." β
"Eh, didn't you just say you weren't hungry?"
"I'm hungry now. β
"I really can't help you, open your mouth, ah~"
Half an hour later, the team finally left the water hole and floated down a wide river to a relatively flat forest area before stopping, and when they opened the obsidian map again, the team had already deviated from half of the original route, but it was safe to pass the first obstacle.
"It's almost ten o'clock, let's arrange the vigil and let everyone rest. After Hanashima finished speaking, he leaned against the tree and fell asleep, even when he slept, the strange smile on his face remained unchanged.
By the time the night watchman had settled, everyone had fallen asleep, except for one figure who was still tossing and turning, restless in the dark forest.
A strange force drove her to her feet, bypassing the Night's Watch's line of sight and slowly lurking on the other side of the line.
