Chapter 4 Who Wants to Kill Me?
For a long time, all I could hear was the clatter of the soles of my shoes on the gravel, the monotonous sound and the endless dark space enough to make a normal person collapse, and I kept reassuring myself that if I persevered, I would find a way out, and maybe the sun would be seen in five minutes.
Of course, I know that this is almost unlikely, but I need that hope until the beam of light of the flashlight hits a rock wall, or it would be better to describe it as a mountain section, which means that the road is impossible.
What to do? There is no road left, I am like an ant trapped in a shoebox, no matter which direction I go, it is a dead end.
As I approached the stone wall, I watched my shadow cast on the mottled wall in a distorted manner, and suddenly my heart rose to my throat.
The flashlight I used was given to me by Wu Feng, although I can't name it, but it is definitely a good thing from the perspective of the durable stainless steel shell and super lighting, and it is because it is so good that I can see an extremely terrifying scene at the moment - there is a head next to my head!
I froze for two seconds, then jerked around to look behind me, but there was nothing behind me, and I moved the beam of light back to the stone wall, this time my shadow was normal, what was going on? I was dazzled, there was a round shadow next to my head, right on my shoulder!
I sat down with my back against the stone wall, reassuring myself that the shadow I had just seen was a hallucination caused by excessive fatigue and nervousness, and that the suspicion was probably the true portrayal of me at present......
I took off my backpack and opened it, there was only a small bottle of water and two packs of beef jerky, which is not enough to eat as a snack, but now it is the ration I rely on to survive, and now I am alone, I don't know when I will meet living people again, so I can't easily eat them, I took two sips of water, and then pulled the backpack again.
Extreme nervousness is followed by extreme exhaustion, this exhaustion is not only physical, but also psychological, I exhaled heavily, and suddenly there was a 'hehe' laughter behind me!
I pounced forward like a hot oil, my heart pounding in my chest again, the feeling of a grass soldier almost drove me crazy, but what could I do but run for my life?
The stone wall is still a stone wall, and there are only some small cracks on the uneven surface, not to mention hiding people, even rats can't get into, and when I was in shock, someone gently patted me on the shoulder.
"Ahh
My screams sounded terrible even to me, but immediately a hand quickly covered my mouth, and the palm of my hand was warm and dry, indicating that the other person was a person. Followed by a cold and hard voice: "Don't scream! ”
Sanjiu?! I recognized his voice, and quickly nodded that he would not scream again, and he let go of his hand, and I picked up the flashlight that had fallen on the ground, and I was really surprised to see his appearance, his face was half-dried with blood, and his head was covered with dirt, as if he had just been drilled out of a mound of earth.
"Why are you here?"
"Why are you here?"
The two of us spoke at the same time, and what they said was exactly the same, I thought of Wu Feng's words, and my heart suddenly became vigilant, if he didn't know that he killed me because Wu Feng was there, then now that there is no third person present, it would be easier for him to kill me.
"I, we are in danger, Wu Feng asked me to run first, and I ran away with him." I explained.
"What danger?" Sanjiu stared at me suspiciously.
"I don't know what it is." I'll tell you the truth.
"He told you to run?" My explanation didn't dispel his suspicions, and he still stared at me coldly and asked.
"Yes, it was approaching us, and he told me to run first, and he stayed to deal with it."
After listening to my words, his eyes sank, his face was very ugly, my heart also followed the drum, his lips moved, and finally tightened, I was already blind to the people and things around me, he just gave me to play and stopped, so anxious that I wanted to give him two feet, but considering the strength of both sides, I had to grit my teeth to hold back my anger.
"By the way, I saw a severed hand, it looks like it's quite old, is it someone from us who came together?"
"Severed hand?"
"Well, on the way I ran over, I put it on a rock, but there was no blood, I don't know where it went."
"Fifth Master Zhao..."
Sanjiu's answer didn't seem to be said to me, and his tone was slightly raised, like a question, indicating that he wasn't quite sure that the hand belonged to Zhao Wuye, and there must be a reason for this, but I didn't have a complicated purpose in telling him about it, just to inform him about such a thing.
"Where do we go next? Looking for Wu Feng? ”
In my philosophy, no matter what the relationship between the members is, since I decided to work together to complete one thing, it is necessary to maintain the integrity of the team, and if I lose someone, I should find it back, not to mention that Wu Feng chose to stay to cover me, before it was difficult for me to save myself, but now when I encounter a strong person, I can still consider saving people.
"You want to die?" Sanjiu's voice was so cold that he could seep out of the ice ballast.
I was asked by him, and for a while I didn't know that he was saying that I was too useless, and I was looking for death if I went; Or is it ......
"He's going to kill you."
"What do you mean?"
"That thing is a yin and yang man, a female and a male cooperate to hunt, and they like to eat human brains, the female attacks the male prey, and the male attacks the female prey, and if it is the other way around, their power will be weakened. I went to deal with the female Xiao, just to let Wu Feng protect you, and he is fully capable of protecting you. I thought he was genuinely cooperating with you and wouldn't want your life. ”
I understood the last seemingly unrelated sentence he said, the longest I'd heard him say since I met him, and it made me shudder. Sanjiu knew what it was, Wu Feng also knew, and he also knew that he had enough ability to deal with it, but he deliberately pretended to be like a great enemy, making me panic and run away.
In the dark and unfathomable underground world, I am alone, without memory, without food, without companions, and will die silently. But I suddenly thought of a question, I noticed this problem when Wu Feng said that Sanjiu wanted me to die, and now I can't care about it much, so I asked Sanjiu directly.
"It's easy for anyone who wants me to die now, so why not just kill me and leave me to fend for myself?"
"Because no one dares to kill you."
Sanjiu gritted his teeth a little when he said this, and I remembered the fierceness with which he grabbed my neck, shook my head and said, "Impossible, didn't you put a knife on my neck!" ”
"That's testing you."
Receiving his contemptuous eyes, I wanted to hug his fist and send a sentence of 'I will be indefinite' to go our separate ways! It's a pity that I finally met such a living creature as him in a desperate situation, and I couldn't do anything rashly, so I had to change the topic and continue to ask: "Why didn't anyone dare to kill me?" ”
Sanjiu didn't answer immediately, his eyes fell on the boundless darkness, as if looking for something, and finally his gaze fell back on my face, and he said quietly: "Your corpse puppet will take revenge on those who hurt you." ”
