Chapter 32: The Sinkhole
Trust is the most indestructible and vulnerable thing in the world, once trust has a crack, it is like a broken mirror, so that one person's suspicion of another person grows from the trunk and splits into countless tiny branches.
In other words, if one person begins to doubt another person, then it is natural to doubt everything that person does and everything he says!
In the face of Sanjiu, who approached me for the purpose of deceiving my trust and getting half of "Sister Corpse" in my hands for Zhao Wuye, I was not even in the mood to question him at the moment.
And there is really no need to talk about it to the point where the two sides turn their faces, now I am weak and he is strong, and it is not good for me to speak quickly for a while, as long as I guard against him in the future, not to mention that I am most afraid of making a big noise, and I will try to deal with things that can be handled coldly.
Of course, with Sanjiu's character, even if he quarrels, he may not be able to quarrel, and he will definitely solve the problem in a more time-saving and labor-saving way than quarreling, such as chopping me with a knife.
Besides, even if he came to save me out of false intentions, he was saved after all, and I, the person who was saved, should accept it with peace of mind.
Now the entire underground space is on the verge of collapse, and we are not the only ones trying to escape, and there are constant gurgling sounds all around...... Hehehe...... And so on we have encountered all kinds of spirit cries.
A staggering number of blood-sucking spiders, snakes, insects and rats poured out from all directions like a torrent of waves, instantly swept us into a large army, and creatures of different species fled for a common purpose, even if it was usually incompatible, at this moment there was not so much care, who would care if a mouse jumped over the head of a certain snake.
The glowing flying insects swirling in the sky presented all this in front of my eyes, and the insects and rats that passed by under Sanjiu's feet, the splashing of sap and the screams of the rats before they died were all drowned out in the strange cries of various creatures.
Suddenly, a black shadow burst into my sight in an ape-like jumping position, it chased after us, its red eyes staring at Sanjiu and me, its goal was not to run for its life, but to rush at us!
"There's a monkey-like animal chasing us."
"Yin and Yang Xiao."
"It's not dead?" After asking, I remembered that Sanjiu took the initiative to deal with the female in the Yin Yang Xiao and asked Wu Feng to stay and take care of me, Wu Feng just told me to run first, and I didn't know if he dealt with the male Xiao later.
Now, of course, no. The ape-like creature chasing after us must be a male, and it is common for Sanjiu to kill his wife, and it is common for it to seek revenge.
"Wait, it doesn't seem right up front!" I was turning my head to see how far away I was from the sinkhole that the fake Hua Zeng said, and I saw an incredible scene, all the animals running in front of me were gone?
"There's no time." Sanjiu's rare tone revealed anxiety.
He began to whisper the obscure incantation again, and the black plate flew out of his arms and flew forward, like a black meteor, cutting through the light curtain of glowing flying insects.
I saw that the river no longer extended forward, but suddenly disappeared not far away, and that was there, and the place where the river disappeared should be the sinkhole that the fake Hua Zeng said.
It turned out that it was the glowing flying insects that blocked my view and made me think that those animals had disappeared out of thin air, and now it seems that eighty percent of the disappeared animals have fallen under the sinkhole.
At the same time, the that was in hot pursuit was getting closer and closer to us, and it only took two more jumps to touch Sanjiu's back.
After seeing the direction of the sinkhole, Sanjiu did not accelerate forward, but threw me out, and he paused himself to attack the male behind him.
I landed and rolled twice to stabilize my body, got up and continued to run towards the sinkhole, and the fluffy touch and the strange screams of animals were blocked out by my reason.
I overcame the heavy encirclement of the animals, and finally stood at the edge of the sinkhole, and found that the hole was funnel-shaped, the depth could not be measured with the naked eye, and the small animals around me squeezed each other and fell, without even making a sound, and it was difficult to know if a person jumped down!
At this moment several goblins rushed towards me, and I quickly dodged to avoid them, and there were rivers and animals pushing behind me, and there was an unfathomable pool of water in front of me, and the so-called dilemma was nothing more than that.
"Get out of the way!"
The moment I heard Sanjiu's low shout, a black shadow had already jumped in front of me, and I hurriedly retreated, only to see that this black shadow was a male dragon, it was as fast as lightning, and it pounced on me with a mouthful of fangs.
I stood on the edge of the water hole, and there was no way to avoid it, but out of the instinct to avoid danger, I still took half a step back, and my feet suddenly hung in the air, and my whole body fell and broke.
Time seemed to be stretched out at this moment, and the scene in my eyes was like a slow motion in a movie, and I watched the water falling from the dark river hit my body and splashed one after another.
Watch as the male's body soars into the air, stretching out his arms full of black fur to grab me, and watching Sanjiu pounce on it from behind, dancing in the air and kicking it away with a handsome roundhouse kick.
Then Sanjiu circled his arms and held me for a 180-degree spin, my face was changed to face down, and the river hit my back painfully, but fortunately, my face was blocked by Sanjiu's chest when I fell into the water, and I didn't suffer much impact.
The moment I fell into the water, everything was back to normal, and the pool was not as shallow as I thought, not only was it not shallow, but it was also so deep that it seemed to have no bottom.
Fortunately, we didn't want to dive to the end, but let our bodies sink down for a while, Sanjiu spread out his limbs and floated upward, and after swimming to the edge of the pool, he climbed up first, and only pulled me up when it was safe.
"It's windy, let's go."
Standing on the edge of the pond we can feel the gentle breeze blowing on our cheeks, and the ventilated cave has an exit, as long as we follow the direction of the wind, we can always get out.
"Have you noticed?" I followed him a few steps, and suddenly turned to look at the waterhole, but in reality the space was so dark that I couldn't see anything.
"How?" Sanjiu asked lukewarmly.
"I didn't hear the sound of other animals falling into the water, did you notice any other animals falling with us?"
All that answered me was darkness and silence.
After a few seconds of silence, my arm was suddenly pulled and continued to walk, in fact, no matter what strange events happened, the best choice for us now was to go out first.
So I patted the back of Sanjiu's hand and said, "I know, go out first." ”
He let me go, and after walking like this for about an hour, a ray of sunlight finally appeared in front of me, and I almost thought that I was reborn as a human being.
The exit of this cave is very small, and only one person can drill through, but Sanjiu still climbed out first, and I followed him.
After going out, there was a small waterfall outside, no wonder no one found it here, this small hole was hidden behind the waterfall, and there was a huge rock that acted as a shadow wall wall, so it was not visible from the outside.
