When did you overcome your fear of death?

At that moment, Xunma thought that he was very afraid of death when he had not felt the pain of the world a long, long time ago.

He was afraid that he would not be able to feel the world, that there would be complete silence, that consciousness would disappear.

This fear was so specific and simple that for a while he cried every night.

After that, he grew up, and then he began to feel bitterness. The suffering that people in fine clothes and jade food feel is completely different from the suffering of looking for horses, and the suffering of searching for horses ultimately boils down to despair.

He can live hopelessly, but this hopelessness makes his way of living seem less precious.

So he joined the Betelgeuse cavalry, that is, hope was much more important than a meaningless life. He also understands that people in fine clothes can't understand that even if they have their favorite dishes for dinner, and they can always eat them, it can be regarded as a great hope. It is enough to make people fear death when they charge.

Where does despair come from?

Before the walking corpse appears, despair should come from steamed buns, vegetable soups, and meat dishes that would have been served before the war at every meal. After the battle of the Betelgeuse cavalry, the plundering was carried out by the emperor's guards, who died, killed the enemy, and then got nothing. Although compared to farming, at least I still have a knife in my hand. But what is the meaning of such a life?

I have to thank my daughter, it's a light.

The horse rushed to the bottom of the tower, which stood in the water, like a chimney, made of stone, with many small holes, for archery. On the side of the tower facing the entrance of the prison, Xunma felt that it was impossible for him to go around the back, so he lifted Wu Ya hard, Wu Ya stepped on his shoulder, jumped up directly, Xun Ma fell directly into the water, Wu Ya volleyed up, and reached the chimney.

He grabbed a hole with one hand and hung it on the outer wall of the tower.

Xun Ma saw it with his peripheral vision and poured it into the water with relief. I thought to myself: "Lao Tzu's job must have been bitten off, that night, Lao Tzu must really sleep with that woman, otherwise it will be a real loss." Okay, let's eat, let's eat, no, I have to make my death less painful. ”

He felt for the knife and was about to kill himself, and it was at this moment that he found that his legs were still there, and he struggled to get up from the water, and saw countless horses floating up with their bellies flipped.

There were too many horses, and the water around him was almost full of dead horses, forming a concentric circle, with a radius of about ten meters. And it's still floating.

"What's going on?" Strange to find a horse. Wu Ya quickly used the small hole to climb to the top of the tower, and then used the amnesty decree to embed the key slot and activate the machine.

Stone slabs rose from under the water, forming a path across the moat. Xunma quickly climbed up, and found that his legs were all wounded. His pants were torn, and he quickly pulled the belt of his pants.

He let out a long breath, and though he shivered with fear, he was unharmed. Wu Ya jumped down and squatted on the side of the road looking at the dead in the water, his face gloomy, "What's wrong?"

"There is poison in the body. Wu Ya said, countless horses still kept pouring over, began to devour the dead horses, ate the dead horses, and poisoned to death, the scene was very spectacular, I don't know what poison is so powerful. But there seems to be a steady stream of horses, and if you don't climb up, this battle will still be bitten to death.

"How can horses be poisonous?" There was no problem with running just now, Xunma thought to himself. Wu Ya said: "The poison has not yet attacked, it is all in the blood, it is estimated that the poison will take effect when you rescue your daughter and ride your horse out of the city, this is the second half of the poison, if we are near the walking corpse at that time, as soon as the horse dies, we will be trapped." The two of them glanced at each other and said, "Situ?"

He gave it.

"Why did he kill me and my daughter?" muttered Xunma.

Wu Ya said: "Anyway, he didn't kill it, let's go." ”

When the two men came to the well, they heard the deafening sound of the waterfall, which was all water, and it was impossible to catch fire, and when they looked down, they saw that there were countless logs lying under the well, and someone must have carried the logs into the moat and rushed down the water, because the logs were extremely long—they should have been the huge load-bearing pillars of some halls—and they would get stuck on the wall of the well at both ends after they fell. When one is stuck, it gets stuck at all and is stacked layer upon layer.

On the inner wall of the well, in addition to the cells, there were countless oil lamps, which fell and scraped off, and the oil stuck to the logs, and now they are burning like campfires. The prisoners in many of the cells on the side should all be baked to death.

It is better to be bitten to death by a walking corpse than to be dried to death, Xun Ma Xin said.

It looks like there are other people besides them who are working on the idea of the prison. I don't know who to save. But as far as the eye could see, it was certain that the cells on the ground floor had survived, the logs were stuck above them, the burning heat rushed upwards, and the people below should still be alive.

Wu Ya looked at Xun Ma and said, "Look, you didn't die in the situation where you were going to die just now, it seems that what the scarecrow in the dream said is true." ”

"It's just a coincidence. ”

"If it's twice, it's not a coincidence. ”

Xun Ma knew what Wu Ya wanted to do, and looked down.

The stacks of logs are very messy, but there are still very few voids that can be seen directly between the upper and lower layers, and the bottom of the well can be seen through the gaps. It's a testament to how messy things are, there are always gaps that let light in.

He already knew what to do, and he wanted to take revenge on Wu Ya's behavior just now, so he hugged Wu Ya as soon as he hugged it, and the two of them directly aimed at a gap, and jumped down.

The gap was extremely small, but it was wide enough for those who were accurate with the arrow, and the two of them pierced directly into the gap and entered the fire in an instant.

For a second, fire was all around, and countless logs passed by them. Both of them had water on their bodies, and the burning sensation disappeared instantly, but all the hair and eyelashes were burned.

There is no pool of water under the prison, but a rock, and there are many holes in the rocks, and the waterfall rushes down and goes directly into the hole. At that height, the two will fall directly into a pulp.

After skimming the gap in an instant, the two men kicked each other, separating the two sides, and in the rapid fall, the horse drew his knife and put it under his feet, stepping on the oil lamp nailed to the wall. hung up a dozen oil lamps in a row, and sparks splashed everywhere, but the rapid slowdown actually made him stop. Finally, he grabbed an oil lamp with one hand and hung it on the wall of the well.

When he turned around, he saw that Wu Ya had followed his example, stopped on the cave wall, and immediately went to find his daughter's cell, shouting: "Girl, are you still alive? Your father has come to save you!"

The sound of the sound of the horse hunting suppressed the sound of the waterfall, and I heard countless people underground responding: "Dad!" There are at least three or four thousand prisoners underground, and a thousand people shout for their fathers, which is deafening. In the prison next to the search horse, an old man who was at least 100 years old also shouted: "Dad!" The voice was full of longing for freedom.
