Chapter 58: Red and Blue Knots of Life and Death (3-Hour Special Part II)
After 30 minutes, I woke up from a bout of soreness. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 I feel dizzy, weak, and even want to vomit, which is a normal phenomenon after inhaling ether.
At this time, the sky bear lying on the side also gradually regained consciousness. He sat up with his palms propped up on the floor, shook his head gently and rubbed his eyes.
After a pause of about two or three seconds, the bear was startled and subconsciously looked around, only to find that I was sitting next to me unharmed.
He caressed me and checked for any injuries, and asked with concern, "Xiaotian, are you okay?" ”
"It's fine, just a little dizzy."
As soon as I finished speaking, a third voice came from inside the room, "Master Tianxiong! Is that you? ”
For a while, Tianxiong and I were both hooked by this inexplicable old voice. We turned around hesitantly, and in the corner of the room we saw a blind old man, blood flowing out of his sunken pupils......
His clothes were ragged, his hair was disheveled, and his flesh was covered in bright red blood, presumably after a brutal torture.
"Steward Chen?! Why are you here?! What happened to your eyes?! Tianxiong rushed over in a panic and tightly grasped Steward Chen's hands that had long been disoriented.
"We've been tricked! Ahem......" Steward Chen spat blood from his mouth and scolded angrily, "We were all calculated by that bastard!" He betrayed the master! Betrayed Young Master Tianxiong! More betrayed ......"
Tianxiong hurriedly covered Steward Chen's mouth and whispered to him, "Don't say it." ”
"Young Master Tianxiong, I'm afraid the old man will no longer be able to assist you and the master in the future." Steward Chen reluctantly said, "They gouged out my eyes and poured poison on me, and I will die here in less than half an hour!" ”
Tianxiong looked at Steward Chen in front of him with tears in his eyes, only hating himself for having no power to return to the sky.
I looked at Tianxiong and Steward Chen, and I was also moved to cry, and walked over to Tianxiong and said, "Let's hurry up and figure out how to escape!" Otherwise, I'm going to die here. ”
At my reminder, the Tencha looked around for a moment, and then fixed his gaze on the door at three o'clock in front of him.
He said to me with a glint in his eyes, "Xiaotian, Steward Chen, you two wait here for me first, and I'll go over and have a look." ”
Sky Bear quickly ran to the door, and with a few hard twists of the handle, he found that the door had been locked from the outside. He looked at me desperately, hoping that I could come up with something good.
I took a cursory glance around the room, which was about the size of a classroom, with unpainted concrete walls on all six sides, no windows in the concrete walls, and the only exit was the door.
Inside the room, apart from me, Tianxiong, and Steward Chen, there were only two things on display: an old television was placed at two o'clock in the front right, and on top of the television was a quarter-sized cuboid, which was wrapped in a black bag, and it was impossible to discern what it contained from a distance.
I thoughtfully stepped forward, ready to take the thing out of the bag and take a look. But the moment my hands touched it, the TV underneath suddenly turned on.
A vague figure appeared on the screen, accompanied by the unstable radio waves, and the person inside began to speak......
"Young Master Tianxiong, forgive me for ruining your perfect plan and imprisoning you here. I'm not going to embarrass you, all I want is money! Once I get the money, I'll let you go. There is a time bomb placed on the TV, I advise you not to touch it easily, once it explodes, you are not responsible, your time is limited to 3 hours, and please cherish the use value of these 3 hours. As for Steward Chen, the antidote was at the door outside the house, and his time was less than half an hour. Whether you want to race against time depends on how much your dad loves your precious son! Hahahahaha......ha
A burst of arrogant ridicule scared my soul away. So, I quickly withdrew my hand from the object, staring at the real time bomb in front of me in amazement, and my heart was beating wildly.
"Howling! Don't touch it! The Tenchon shouted and ran at me, "Don't touch it, once it explodes, you and I will be finished!" ”
Sky Bear carefully tore open the black bag, and a complete time bomb suddenly appeared in front of him, showing the time "02:48:53" on the digital panel.
"It's been less than three hours!" I panicked and said, "Tenbear! What to do?! What to do?! ”
Sky Bear stared at the time bomb in thoughtless thought. From the helpless look on his face and the desperate look in his eyes, I could see the limited strength of a bear.
At this time, due to lack of physical strength, Steward Chen fell to the ground and was panting.
I hurriedly rushed over and hugged him, only to hear him moan with blood in his mouth, "I seem to have heard your name just now, you are the one that Young Master Tianxiong once searched for, and I have admired the name for a long time...... Ahem...... Listen to my arrangement, go find a sharp instrument, defuse the bomb, and fly out of this cage as soon as possible! ”
Tianxiong, who was standing on the side, also heard what Steward Chen said, and immediately took out a dagger from his waist and handed it to me. He knew that Steward Chen had followed his father for many years, and this person was quite capable and highly used by his father, and things like defusing the bomb were only trivial matters for Steward Chen.
"What is this for?" I asked the bear, "Why me?" ”
"I would like to entrust my fate to you at this moment, even if I die, I will die together. ”
I was deeply moved by Tianxiong's words, and clenched the cold knife with tears streaming down my face, and after pondering for a while, I gritted my teeth and replied firmly, "I know, Steward Chen, please instruct!" ”
I will follow Steward Chen's instructions for the rest of everything.
The rest of the time is "02:25:03".
Steward Chen endured the pain after being poisoned, hoarsely throated, and guided tremblingly, "First of all, gently remove the cover on the outside, and when you see the complicated lines inside, don't touch them, if you move the wrong line, it will explode immediately!" ”
"I'm away!"
"Excellent! Next, cut off the outermost yellow line! ”
"Sky Bear, Steward Chen!" I gasped and said, "I'm going to start cutting it off now?" ”
The Tenchin looked at me with a blank expression and replied firmly, "Good! ”
With the shaking of the blade shadow, the first thread was cut......
Then cut off the green line and the white line, remember in order! Ahem......! Steward Chen suddenly spit out a pool of blood, and I shuddered when I saw it.
"Good! I'm cut off! What's next? ”
At this moment, the frail Steward Chen was almost fainting and lay in the arms of the heavenly bear, and said the last sentence of his life, "Cut off the last black wire, and the timing device should stop......"
I swallowed my saliva uneasily, and looked at the sky bear with a solemn expression, and the sky bear nodded at me, and said indifferently, "Cut it off......
In the midst of tension and depression, I pinched the last black line, thinking that if I went down, everything would be over, but it backfired, the timer was still beating, and the remaining time was displayed as "01:53:08".
In addition, there are two other lines hidden on the inside of the dark corner of the bomb device, a red line and a blue line.
"Heavens, bears......" I stammered, "reading, reading the meter without stopping...... How can there be two lines in it? One blue, one red. ”
After Tianxiong carefully put Steward Chen down, he ran towards me in a panic, and when he saw this scene, he had an angry expression and cursed incessantly, "Damn! Damn it! ”
"Where's Steward Chen?" I asked.
"He's dead...... "Sky Bear looked at me with tears in his eyes, "Howling, forgive me, it's all my fault!" ”
I didn't understand what the bear was blaming himself for, and I just wanted to comfort him, "It's not your fault, I don't blame you!" We have more than an hour to go, what next? ”
"Shenke, at that life-and-death juncture, what Tianxiong and I faced was not as simple as the red and blue lines, but faced with the choice of life and death, a life line and a death line."
"And then ......?" Shenko nervously wanted to hear the next story quickly, "Which line did my brother choose in the end?" ”
Sky Bear looked at me affectionately, trying to remember this face he loved so much, and said to me meaningfully, "Xiaotian, go ahead, choose the color you like." ”
"My favorite color?" I was stunned for a moment, and silently muttered in my heart: Isn't the color I like the color you like?
If I can abandon Dawu and choose again, I am willing to live and die with you at this moment.
I picked up the red thread, picked up the dagger in my hand, and the moment the shadow of the knife slashed, my heart shouted the strongest sound.
