Chapter 19 Life and Death, Escape from the Bottom of the Lake
The voices of the wings behind him were getting louder and louder, but they were all focused overhead. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Although I tried to restrain the movement of my breathing, I couldn't help it, and I turned my head to look at it, wondering what it was.
Not to mention that the visibility itself is not high when it is obscured by vegetation, and in the cave, everything is blurred.
The thing looked obvious because of the light color of the body.
Like a kind of bird, its flesh-colored skin is wrapped around the skeleton, and it has no hair, like a hairless chicken, but it has a long beak that is completely disproportionate to its body, and there seems to be something stuck in its pointed beak, and the flesh worm that is still alive hangs softly and occasionally flicks.
If I looked closely, it turned out to be the juvenile state of those meat worms.
These hairless birds hang from the top like bats, with meat worms stuck in their beaks, and I don't know whether they will be used as food storage or prepared to eat after a while. At the beginning, those insects made us afraid to meet them, but now we see that it also makes fish on the board of others one day.
While gloating, I glanced back and forth, inadvertently making eye contact with one of the smaller ones.
The bird's eyes were skinless, just facing me sideways, but I could feel its gaze.
It's strange that this bird doesn't have meat worms, and it is very unusual to mix in with the other birds that are full of them.
Although I didn't dare to speak, I still felt that I should tell Xiaoyu about this 'bad news', I may have made a mistake, if I was really targeted......
Unable to move, I reached for the corner of his coat. Damn, why didn't he wear a shirt with a longer hem and a slim coat.
When he couldn't touch him, he looked straight at the birds, looking for an opportunity to escape.
I began to feel a little anxious, because I obviously felt that if I didn't make any changes, the bird that had a "fate" with me was afraid that it was going to attack.
I can't figure out why it's targeting me.
But now, look at the strange birds on the top of the mountain, if they are attacked, the chances of survival are even smaller.
Can't wait for whispers to find out what's wrong with me.
He said decisively: "I'm being targeted, where to run." ”
When I said this, he was just surprised, and immediately saw the bird aimed at me, and then pulled me and ran deeper into the cave.
First he turned on his flashlight and crossed the puddle on the ground, then ran towards the center of the cave.
"Do you know the way here?" I asked as I ran, and he didn't hesitate to run away.
"I don't know, it's the first time."
"First !!" Before I could be surprised, I didn't notice the road under my feet at the moment of turning the corner, and I tripped violently, hitting my knee against the rock.
Maybe it was because of the critical situation, Xiao Yu picked me up and said, "Hold tight." ”
Then run wild twice as fast as before.
I could feel the pain in my knee, but what was more obvious was the cool breeze in the cave that was being picked up by his super-fast speed. I couldn't help but hug it tighter, an inexplicable sense of security.
Turning all the way to the bend, in order to avoid the induction of those birds, his every stop was a light touch, and then a change of position, and did not slow down because of the extra weight of me, but the fine and dense beads of sweat on the back of his neck showed that he was actually unsustainable in order to maintain such a speed.
Gradually, the speed slowed down, and the breathing began to be heavy.
I don't think my knee hurts as much as it started, and it seems that the bleeding has stopped, "Put me down, it's almost fine." ”
"It's too late, it's already catching up."
As soon as they turned their heads, they flew in groups from where they had just been, and soon spotted me as a living creature, and then pounced on this side, first taking off their coats and putting them over their heads, because the whipping of their coats did not work at all, and their arms were soon bitten by their sharp teeth.
Sweat flowed down the lines of the skin into the wound, and it stung badly.
Soon, more and more of those strange-shaped birds came up, I couldn't see the road, and Xiaoyu couldn't break through, I wanted him to let me go first, but thinking that I could help him like this now, I didn't say anything, just tried my best to help him open his eyes.
I grabbed the bird that had been biting my hair, wrapped its large mouth in my clothes, and then cut off the handful of hair with a sharp swing of my knife, picking up the bird and throwing it forward. Relying on inertia, I knocked several of them away one after another, and one of them leaned over and led me out and ran deeper into the cave.
The road inside began to be uneven, and there were jagged rocks everywhere, like shale, layer upon layer, and I got off his back and began to climb in, behind him.
In order not to lag behind, I didn't care about being held up by the rockslide arm, and crawled forward quickly.
The more scared it is, the more slippery it becomes, and it feels like you're hearing the sound of water.
One didn't pay attention, I didn't get, the surface of the rock was too slippery, the clothes didn't rub enough, and my whole body slid down the slope, and I screamed in fright, because my posture was ...... It turned out to be head-down.
Oh, my God! Why is it always so unlucky.
I called Xiao Yu's name and waved my arms to grab something, but I didn't catch anything.
Straight into the dark river.
Plop.
Because it was head-down, I poured a few mouthfuls of water violently, and my head and lungs were so swollen that I couldn't cough out.
After a while, I noticed that my scalp tightened, and then I was instantly held out of the water by a hand, and a mouthful of water squirted out, as if grasping a life-saving straw, and quickly climbed up.
It's better to climb up and roll over and lie down on the rocks and press the water out of your abdomen.
Panting and steady, "How are you?" ”
Xiao Yu's face was pale, and the water droplets slipped down the tips of his hair and eyebrows, soaking wet, slightly embarrassed, and he didn't seem to have any external injuries. I touched my arm with my hand, and it was a white wound that had been bitten, not too bleeding, just very painful. grinning and said, "How are we going to get out?" ”
"Didn't you just fall off and didn't notice anything unusual?" Xiaoyu's voice was a little weak, and she thought she might be tired.
At that time, I choked on the light, and I really didn't pay attention to other places. Looking more closely, there are some bluestone stairs faintly under the water, and I don't know where it leads. It's really, desperate.
"Actually, it's not for nothing that I chose to run this way before." After a pause, Xiao Yu continued, "The chain that tied the living corpse before was made of meteorite, and it was also possible to become a living corpse because of the strange rays from the chain, so I didn't let you approach." There are many strange ways to raise corpses, but there are dozens of ways to raise corpses with ghost bones, and again, it won't be the kind of road you take here, he will arrange a road to communicate with the outside world, so that it is easy to observe at any time. If you want to arrange another feng shui without destroying the yin place, this direction is the only choice. ”
I looked at him in amazement, and he just bowed his head and explained so much.
Now that we have a path, we follow the stairs, which gradually emerge from below, and we don't know where the deep bottom of the river leads...... We swim downstream, swim fast, don't need to dive, just swim in the direction, the stairs go up, more and more clear, and when we can step on the real place, we have come out. It is a waterhole with a blue brick bridge on it.
