Chapter Seventy-Eight: A Blessing in Disguise
In the darkness, except for the footsteps of Lan Xue and Han Shengshu, there was no other sound, and the air seemed to be frozen. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Don't you think it's getting even cooler here?" Han Shengshu rubbed his hands and said in a low voice.
Lan Xue nodded, indeed, the more you go inside, the lower the temperature, the temperature was already very low here, but I didn't think about it, the temperature seemed to be lower. The clothes on their bodies were enough to withstand the cold here, but they couldn't help but shiver when they were still cold here.
Thinking about it, she took out a fire fold from her arms and blew it, and the fire fold lit up instantly, but it was quickly extinguished again.
"Sure enough, it still doesn't work!" I don't know what's wrong, it's very evil here, and the fire fold can't be lit here at all, and it will be extinguished in just a moment, which is really weird.
"Let's go! Get out of here early and warm up early. Put away the fire fold, neither of them dared to say more, and one more word here would consume an extra point of physical strength.
When they walked like this, about a stick of incense, the two of them were already white-frozen, and their bodies trembled like chaff.
"How... How so! No wonder they... They didn't dare to come in, it was so cold that people wanted to die! Han Shengshu said inarticulate while trembling.
Lan Xue was also shivering with cold at the moment, wanting to speak, but she didn't know how to speak, if she didn't insist on coming, I was afraid that they wouldn't have fallen to such a situation, if they really died here, it would really be a grievance to die.
"No... It doesn't matter, we... We must... You can definitely find a way out! One... Absolutely! Trembling, Lan Xue also tried her best to control her body, so that she could at least walk more smoothly.
Time passed minute by minute, and the two of them were getting more and more painful, the reason why they were painful was because the cold here was unusually cold, and the cold here was the kind of biting cold, as if every step forward, there were hundreds of needles pierced into their bodies, and that kind of pain really made people want to die.
But they also know that it is not okay to die, at least they must die on the battlefield.
"Brother Blue, let's... Let's go back! Big... It's a big deal, let's fight with those barbarians! Even if you're dead... It's better than freezing to death here, you... You tell me? Although Han Shengshu tried his best to control it, he still said in a trembling voice.
Lan Xue glanced at Han Shengshu, then gritted her teeth and said, "Okay!" Then go back! It's a big deal to kill more barbarians and die! ”
So the two of them turned around and walked back in the direction they had come.
However, a scene that made the two of them feel desperate happened, and the two walked like this for about half an hour, but they did not see any light, and there was not the slightest fire in front of them. If we count the distance they have just walked, at least they should have seen some light in the past half an hour.
"Could it be... Are we lost? Han Shengshu looked at Lan Xue, and his pale lips trembled even more.
Lan Xue is also frowning, indeed, although it is not so far as to reach out and lose sight of the five fingers, but it is also very dark, and the surrounding scenery is the same, seeing everywhere is a black expanse, and the road taken is naturally inevitable out of the detour, but this is the case, it should not be such a big distance!
Although the road that the two of them walked this time did not dare to say that they were moving straight forward, they could also go out in one direction in general. But if you look for them to go on like this, I'm afraid that before the two of them really find a way back, they will freeze to death in this unknown place.
Thinking about it, Lan Xue was about to say something, but suddenly her feet softened, and before she could react, the whole person fell into it.
"Brother Han, save me!" Lan Xue shouted with difficulty, but when she turned her head to look, her face also changed, because Han Shengshu was actually trapped like herself. And it seems to be a few points faster than the speed at which he sank in.
Eventually, her thoughts stopped as fast as she sank, and when her head completely disappeared into the night, her thoughts were interrupted.
I don't know how long later, when she woke up, she found herself lying on a cold ground, the ground! That's right, it's a solid bluestone paved floor. But shouldn't you be in the snow? How could it be...
Suddenly, a light flashed in her mind, yes, she had sunk into the snow. Isn't there a cave under this snow? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look up, as if she saw some light shining down through it, so high! Lan Xue frowned slightly, just at a glance, this height was at least nearly two feet, and he hadn't fallen to his death from such a height, but he was fatal.
"That's right! Brother Han! Thinking about it, Lan Xue struggled to sit up, and the pain all over her body was as if all the bones had been broken inch by inch with a wooden stick. But she gritted her teeth and sat up.
Turning her head to look, she saw Han Shengshu lying not far in front of her, with her eyes still closed at the moment, Lan Xue rubbed it over with both hands, first touched his snort, fortunately, and breathing. But when she saw the blood flowing from the torn clothes on Han Shengshu's arm, she couldn't help frowning.
The blood was still flowing, but there was no cloth suitable for bandaging, after thinking about it, she had to tear off a piece of cloth on her body with great effort, then moved her body, and simply bandaged it for Han Shengshu.
It seemed that the movement was a little bigger, or maybe it hurt him, Han Shengshu frowned, snorted, and then slowly opened his eyes. It's just that although his eyes are open, he still looks like he is still in a trance, as he was just now.
After another half an hour, his eyes rolled a few times before he came back to his senses, and when he saw Lan Xue, he let out a sigh of relief and said, "It seems that we are all fortune-tellers, and we are not dead." ”
"Well, it's true, it's just that falling from such a high place hurts all over my body." It took Lan Xue a lot of effort to lie back down.
"I don't know what kind of place this is, it will appear under this snow." While looking around with his head that could only move, Han Shengshu said puzzled.
Lan Xue also looked around, but it was too dark all around, and after thinking about it, Lan Xue took out the fire fold in her arms again, and blew hard, this time the flame lit up, and it instantly illuminated the place a lot brighter, and there was no appearance of extinguishing.
"It's going to work here." Lan Xue smiled and took a picture of the fire fold around, but was surprised to find that this place was extremely spacious, the place where they were lying was only a small part of this place, and the spacious stone walls around it seemed to be artificially hewn.
"Look, there's a road!" Han Shengshu suddenly pointed to the front of the two of them and said with some excitement.
Lan Xue hurriedly followed the direction of his finger, and sure enough, a foot away in front of the two of them, he could see a secluded black hole spreading into the distance, deep and quiet.
"Looks like we're not going to die." Lan Xue extinguished the fire with a smile and said, "Now we can't move, let's rest first!" By the way, see if the dry food on your body is still there? ”
Yes, before they came out, they all packed a little dry food on their bodies, just in case, although it was only enough for them to eat a meal, but it was better than starving to death without food.
Both of them touched their waists, and sure enough, there was still a small bag. And they were all at ease.
For a while, both of them were silent, and in the dim underground, only the sound of their breathing was intertwined, and they didn't know how to open their mouths to break the silence.
Suddenly, Han Shengshu spoke: "Brother Lan, if we can get out of here alive this time, I have decided to become brothers with you!" How is it? ”
Lan Xue's breath is stagnant, brother? But she didn't want to be a brother with him, she was a woman, where did a woman need to worship her brother, and she had a good impression of Han Shengshu, so she thought about it and said: "This matter is not in a hurry first, I want to organize our soldiers first after I go back, and strive to give the barbarians a heavy blow!" ”
"A heavy blow? Could it be that Brother Lan, do you have any good solutions? Han Shengshu was successfully diverted and hurriedly asked.
Lan Xue smiled and looked at the darkness in the distance, and said with a light smile: "I do have an idea, but I am not sure yet." ”
"What thoughts? Let's hear it. Han Shengshu said with interest.
"Actually, it's not an unusual way, Brother Han, you think, if we can really get out of here and return to our camp smoothly, then this should be an excellent place for sneak attacks!"
"Sneak attack?" Han Shengshu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "Brother Lan, you mean that we can bring our soldiers here, and then enter from here, and then take those barbarians by surprise?" That's a good idea. ”
Lan Xue shook her head with a smile and said, "This is indeed a good idea, but there is one point that is not good. ”
"What do you mean?"
Lan Xue looked at it and frowned: "We can indeed bring soldiers here, or we can go up on a ladder, but have you thought about it, how can we find the camp where the barbarians are?" ”
"It's... It's really hard, we're all lost, it's really hard to find. Han Shengshu also frowned.
"Hmmm! I think the reason why those barbarians don't dare to walk in and give up on us decisively must be for two reasons, one is that it is cold here, and it is surprisingly cold, and the other is that we will get lost when we come here, once we get lost, we can't get out of this snow over there, which is the most important thing! Therefore, if we want to defeat those barbarians by this method, I am afraid that we will not be able to do it. I think it was precisely because of this that those barbarians dared to let us in, because they knew that we would not be able to get out, and they would not be able to find a way out. ”
Han Shengshu nodded and said, "Those barbarians have some brains when they arrive, but in this way, this road can be regarded as broken here?" I'm so unwilling! ”
Lan Xue smiled faintly and said: "Naturally I won't let it break here in vain, after all, this road is a good road, not only for sneak attacks, but also for storing things, I just looked around, this place is extremely spacious, and the temperature is not low, suitable for people to live here, I think we can even put the wounded here to recuperate." ”
After a pause, Lan Xue said again: "After all, no matter how warm it is in the snow, it is not as good as coming here, there are stone walls all around here, and there is no trace of wind blowing in, if you light some fire, the temperature must be very high, and it is very suitable for the wounded to recuperate here." ”
Han Shengshu suddenly laughed and said, "It seems that we really didn't come in vain this time, although we have suffered some sins before, but we have also found such a good place, and my mood is much better!" Hahaha! ”
Lan Xue also smiled and nodded, indeed, before they came, they would never have thought that they would be forced here by those barbarians, let alone that they would be frozen and shivering here, and they would get lost, of course, they would not have thought that they would fall into here by mistake, and it was a good place.
"This is hand-hewn out, and someone must have lived here before!" Han Shengshu looked around and said.
Lan Xue nodded and said, "I think so, of course, it has absolutely nothing to do with those barbarians, with his means, it is not enough to make such a big place, and if they really get it, then they will not be so afraid to come in, and they will not let us in!" ”
In this way, the two chatted without a word, and after a while, Lan Xue heard Han Shengshu's slight snoring, and then let out a long breath, to be honest, she was really afraid that Han Shengshu would mention the matter of swearing again, after all, they are different from men and women, although he can be called brothers and sisters with those soldiers in the barracks, but that is only because of a good relationship.
can be with Han Shengshu, she actually has some of her own careful thoughts in her heart, and she has to admit that she likes Han Shengshu more or less, although he doesn't like himself, of course, it's normal for him to not like himself, after all, he is now a man, if he really likes a man's self, then she feels terrible.
"Hey! I don't know what I'll do in the future! Thinking of Han Shengshu and her current identity, she actually had an impulse, why don't she go back after finishing this account! retired from the family business, and then expressed his mind to Han Shengshu as a woman, so that at least he could no longer always worry about it, and he could feel at ease no matter what the result.
Thinking about it, Lan Xue's sleepiness also swept over, her eyelids blinked, and she couldn't open them anymore.
In this way, I don't know how long he slept, when he woke up again, he found that although his body was still a little painful, he could move, and when he turned his head to look, he saw that Han Shengshu was gone.
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Han Shengshu's voice not far away: "Brother Lan, are you awake?" ”
"Brother Han, I'm awake, what are you doing?" As she spoke, Lan Xue blew the fire fold, and by the light of the fire, Lan Xue saw that Han Shengshu was groping on a stone wall, so she asked suspiciously.
Han Shengshu was still touching, and said while touching: "I think the stone wall here seems to be a little weird. ”
