094 The Woman Calling for Help
Anyway, in Miao Pu's mind, Shen Yan'er is a useless oil bottle, so no matter what she sees Shen Yan'er do, she is a little hostile and impatient. But Xiao Hei was the opposite, staring at Shen Yan'er in his arms with trusting eyes, which made Shen Yan'er feel comforted.
"This is the best way to think of it." Shen Yan'er explained, "Now that these ever-bright lights have not been completely extinguished, we can store the remaining grease." Although there is only a little bit left of one lamp, it adds up to a lot, and dozens of lamps can accumulate the amount that can continue to burn for a day. ”
This method was only thought up by Shen Yan'er after all the ever-bright lights were extinguished. She regretted that she had not taken precautions and saved up lamp oil, and now she finally had a chance to remedy it.
After listening to Shen Yan'er's words, Miao Pu's disgusted expression changed slightly. She replied with a little embarrassment, "That's a good idea, it seems that you still have some use." ”
After speaking, Miao Pu didn't wait for Shen Yan'er to speak, she pulled out another ever-bright lamp from the wall, used a knife to rip out the remaining lamp oil inside, and filled it into the lamp in Shen Yan'er's hand.
Along the way, Miao Pu kept repeating this action. Seeing that the amount of grease in the ever-bright lamp was getting more and more, Shen Yan'er's confidence also became sufficient, and she thought that she would no longer have to worry about being swallowed by the darkness now, and she could be regarded as making a little compensation for Xiao Hei and Miao Pu who risked their lives to rush into the darkness to save them.
Miao Pu, who had always been dissatisfied with Xiao Hei's delay in saving Shen Yan'er, finally stopped keeping a straight face. Shen Yan'er, who had finally been relieved from the pain of looking at Miao Pu's face, felt a lot more comfortable all over her body, and even the wound healed faster.
Fortunately, they didn't go far before they found the mark left by Kou Xuebing. Kou Xuebing has been following Yi Xiangxi, and Yi Xiangxi is a person with a map in hand, so as long as he follows these marks all the way, it is easy to reach the exit.
After the great tribulation, happiness followed, and Shen Yan'er was secretly relieved in her heart. But she still can't help but think that it would be good if Ah Zhen was here, and if Ah Zhen lasted a little longer, maybe she would really be happy and regain her vitality......
However, every assumption is nothing, and the more I think about it, the more empty my heart becomes. Shen Yan'er knew that if it weren't for Ah Zhen's own painful roar after her death, maybe Xiao Hei and Miao Pu wouldn't have found out at all......
There is no more ironic thing than this. She desperately wanted to save Zhen, and it was because of Zhen's death that she was rescued. In the end, in the final analysis, it is actually thanks to Ah Zhen's blessing. She failed to save Ah Zhen, but Ah Zhen saved her with death.
Shen Yan'er was thinking about it, when suddenly, Xiao Hei and Miao Pu both stopped in unison. Shen Yan'er was taken aback, and immediately drew her attention from self-blame back to reality. She observed Blackie's expression and saw that Blackie, with her eyebrows furrowed, was staring at the end of the tunnel.
"Are there any walking corpses?" Shen Yan'er swallowed a mouthful of saliva and asked timidly.
Xiao Hei shook his head lightly and said, "Someone is calling for help." ”
Call? Shen Yan'er was even more surprised. Usually after encountering a walking corpse, it is a run for life, how can anyone call for help in a place infested with walking corpses? Aren't you afraid of attracting more walking corpses?
Xiao Hei and Miao Pu glanced at each other, and the two reached a consensus with a tacit understanding, and slightly quickened their pace and rushed to the depths of the tunnel. After Xiao Hei ran nearly twenty or thirty meters, Shen Yan'er finally heard his "cry for help".
The cry for help was completely different from the "hysterical screaming type" imagined by Shen Yan'er, it was a weak and exhausted call one after another. Each one stretches endlessly, and there is a pause before a second sound.
The owner of the voice sounded like a very weak woman. She shouldn't have been attacked by the walking corpses, but trapped somewhere.
Xiao Hei ran forward with Shen Yan'er in her arms again, and the woman who called for help seemed to hear the footsteps, first silent for a while, and then suddenly shouted excitedly in a loud voice: "Help!" Help me! Help me! ”
Because the location of the woman happened to be the road where Kou Xuebing left a mark, even Miao Pu, who hated being nosy the most, did not object, but rushed straight to the place where the cry for help came.
Finally, Shen Yan'er saw a huge iron cage blocking their way. Trapped in the cage was a bloodied, emaciated woman.
In terms of temperament, she is not like Kou Xuebing and Yi Xiangxi, who exude tenacious vitality and powerful aura all over her body, but is closer to Shen Yan'er, the type who is powerless and needs to be protected. So the first time she saw her, Shen Yan'er felt a sense of sympathy and sympathy for her.
The most terrifying thing is that on the other side of the iron cage, more than a dozen roaring walking corpses have gathered. They let out a terrible howl, eager to pull open the cage and rush in to tear the woman apart. They were probably drawn by the woman's cries for help. The iron cage imprisoned the woman while protecting her, making it impossible for the walking corpses outside to harm her.
"Where's your weapon?" Miao Pu roared anxiously.
As long as you have a weapon, even a dagger, you can kill all the roaring walking corpses outside from between the bars. But the woman was stupidly locked inside, doing nothing but calling for help. If such a stupid scene had been seen by the grumpy Kou Xuebing, she would have been unable to help cursing a long time ago.
The woman in the iron cage replied weakly: "I don't have a weapon......"
Don't have a weapon? Don't talk about Miao Pu, even Shen Yan'er felt incredible. How could someone be in such a dangerous place without weapons?
Just when the two of them were in a daze, Xiao Hei had already squatted on the ground neatly, supporting Shen Yan'er's body with his thighs, and then freed up one hand, raised Ah Zhen's relic mechanism crossbow and brushed a few arrows to shoot all the dozen fierce walking corpses opposite the iron cage.
Because he was holding Shen Yan'er, he could only lift the crossbow with one hand, and he didn't aim very carefully, as if he was shooting randomly. Even so, it was still a shot of an arrow, and not a single arrow was wasted. Shen Yan'er admired his quasi-head.
After the death of the walking corpse, the deafening roar also disappeared, and everyone's ears finally fell silent.
Miao Pu and Xiao Hei ran to the iron cage, and Xiao Hei put down Shen Yan'er. At this time, Shen Yan'er had recovered enough to stand up by the iron bar. She carefully observed the strange woman's appearance.
Like other show girls, this woman is also beautiful and moving. The last few days of hard fighting had left her face haggard, her clothes and hair in disarray, stained with blood. However, her appearance is still much neater than Shen Yan'er, who has just climbed back from the Ghost Gate.
