Chapter 963: The Last Cave
A stick struck him, and the neck of a snake pressed under the stick. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Cheng Qianxun pinched the snake's seven inches and picked it up: "It's another one, you really want to provoke this thing." ”
When Maria opened her eyes, the long snake was hanging in the air and twisting its body, and immediately screamed: "Ah, snake~"
knew that there was such a reaction, so she didn't remind it, and she won't remind it in the future, she just pinched the snake to the side to deal with it, and there was meat to eat.
The snake's head is cut off and thrown directly into the fire, the vitality of the cold-blooded animal is extremely tenacious, and the snake's head can still move and bite for several minutes after it is cut off. This is what Gordon taught everyone, but it's a pity that Gordon is no longer around.
After a slight sigh, he continued to cook this delicious meal, and the snake meat had to be cooked a little, this thing had a lot of parasites like frogs and lizards.
Rudolph and Sneijder returned, and this time they dragged back the big game, with the head and tail hooves removed, and it looked the size of a lamb.
"It's amazing." She was naturally pleased.
"You're great too." Sneijder saw at a glance a piece of snake flesh partially pierced on a tree branch, looked back at Maria, who continued to communicate with God, and lowered his voice: "Luckily, a deer was injured." ”
I want to whisper that if this Virgin knew that she had killed such a poor wounded fawn, and dismembered it and brought it back to roast and eat it, I don't know what kind of trouble would have happened. Maybe the hunger of these days can make this Virgin, who is not in the world and only lives in her own world, understand some truth, but it is better not to take risks.
Although the deer is small, the four people still can't eat it all, after all, they are not primitive people and do not have a large stomach capacity. Rudolph and Sneijder used knives to cut off the meat piece by piece, and rolled the grass into a straw rope to hang the meat. It's not a prairie, so there's no vultures or anything like that, just hang the meat high.
If there is no sheepskin, grass is used; There was no blanket, only a cloak wrapped around him. Mary sat on the campfire with her back to the fire, and she was drowsy vigorously, and the back of her dress was torn, so her back was turned to the fire.
Cheng Qianxun stood up, took off his cloak, walked over, and helped her cover: "I borrowed it from you." Then he hid by Snead's side.
"You." Sneijder sighed softly, hugged her, and smiled: "When did it become a knife mouth, a tofu heart?" ”
"Will you freeze her to death, or fall backwards into the fire?" She hugged Sneijder, closed her eyes and fell asleep. Felt Sneijder pull up his cloak, covering and wrapping the two men tightly.
After walking for another two days, when the shoes on the soles of my feet were almost worn out, I finally came to the mouth of the cave drawn in the book on the ground.
Looking at the black hole, there is a cold wind blowing inside, and the mood at this time is very complicated. Feel that everything is not sacred, but funny, and desperately running over, just for this hole? When Mary stood on the altar, it would be ridiculous if nothing happened.
But this is not their problem, their task is to get Maria to stand on the ground and then accomplish the "feat" she has always dreamed of accomplishing.
Rudolph lit four torches, one of whom gave one: "I am the first, Sneijder the second; Cheng, you are still the last one. ”
In terms of probability, the first one is the most dangerous; If something happens to Rudolph, then Sneijder will be the one to lead the way. The last one is relatively safe, after all, the possibility of rushing from behind is relatively small, it is a matter of personal feelings, there will be delusions and fears, and there will always be something behind them.
Cheng Qianxun walked in the last one with a torch, and she didn't feel anything terrible, death has long been a common thing for her, but Maria was startled from time to time.
Rudolph stopped, and there were two passages in front of him, which looked exactly the same. Arched door made of stone, with wet moss hanging from it: "From here on, I didn't write it down in the book, and I jumped straight to the end." ”
Mary said from behind, "Go to the right." ”
Everyone looked at Mary with a little pride: "On page 37 of the book, verse 5, line 3, it is written, God says that the right hand is life, and the left side is death... ”
So on the right, Rudolph immediately walked to the right with a torch, while Maria said in the back: "I'm not done yet, this story is about a lost man... ”
"Okay~" Rudolph interrupted Maria: "There may be bats in the cave, be careful to disturb them by talking too much." ”
"I'm not afraid of bats anymore, and I know that when I encounter a bat, I have to crouch down with my head in my hands." Mary clearly didn't want to shut up.
Snead hurriedly found another reason: "It's better not to speak, this is a sacred place, don't disturb the gods, let the gods get angry." ”
For a good reason, Mary immediately shut her mouth and obediently followed, standing on tiptoe for fear that the footsteps would be too loud and disturb the sacred cave.
After passing through the narrow and damp hole, there is an open space in front of it, which is a cliff, but in the middle of the cliff, there are stone pillars erected one after another. Look at the distance, it's about fifty meters or so.
It should be excavated by hand, and the distance of each stone pillar is exactly the length of a big stride; Moreover, the top of the stone pillar is flat, but it is very narrow, and you can stand on it with two feet together. “”
Looking down, it was pitch black and bottomless.
When Maria looked down, she trembled with fright: "It's too high, I can't, I can't." ”
At this time, you still say no, maybe not, you can only walk here one by one, do you still plan to let people carry the past?
Rudolph and Sneijder began to reassure Maria: it wasn't really deep underneath, but the light was dim and the bottom couldn't be seen; What is God's test for everyone, if you go through it, it shows that you are firm in your faith and one step closer to God ... Anyway, after saying everything and feeling annoyed, Mary finally mustered up the courage to pass.
Rudolph walked forward step by step without stopping, and after a while he arrived on the opposite side and waved his hand at them: "It's very strong, no problem." ”
Before Snead left, he looked at her and Maria worriedly, but it was useless for him to stay, and Maria had to go on her own.
Seeing Maria's hesitation, Cheng Qianxun took out a rope and tied it to Maria's waist: "Just rest assured and walk boldly, if you fall, I will pull you up." ”
In fact, she understands that this is just a comforting word, the area of the stone pillar is not enough to stand on two people, if one of them falls, it will only die, or all the people on the rope will be implicated and pulled down together. The more people who string the rope, the more they fall. (To be continued.) )
