Chapter 135: Desperate Survival

Leng Xue lay on Chu Tianshu's back and wiped the tears from her face fiercely.

The water in the cave was slowly receding.

Chu Tianshu stepped on the retreating beat of the river, and quickly followed the gradually retreating river in the cave.

After a corner, a ray of sky light could be seen seeping in from not far away.

The entrance to the cave has arrived.

In the excitement, Chu Tianshu ran a few steps, and was immediately dumbfounded again. The sky was getting dark, and the sound of the bean-sized rain hitting the river was clearly discerning.

Chu Tianshu's heartbeat accelerated sharply, and he couldn't suppress the ecstasy that he was about to escape, but after the ecstasy, his heart immediately rose to his throat, and he suddenly felt that his heartbeat was about to stop.

The iron fence at the entrance to the glowing cave was closed, and the river poured in and out from between the fences.

Lang Tao crackled against the iron fence, and there was no doubt that the iron fence was locked.

The sewage in the cave has temporarily stopped surging and is in a state of equilibrium between advancing and retreating.

In other words, the river has receded and could be poured in again at any time.

Vitality is fleeting!

Chu Tianshu bravely threw himself into the water and rushed to the entrance of the cave.

"Locked, fuck." Chu Tianshu couldn't help but scold, he shook it vigorously a few times, there was a loud sound between the iron fence and the cave wall, and the lock outside was above the water and was clearly visible.

The water had risen to Chu Tianshu's thighs, and the cold water stimulated his wounds, making him feel a faint pain.

There is no way out, but there is an even more sinister crisis ahead.

Because the cave is connected to the Qinglian River, and along the way of the Qinglian River, it is connected to the city's dirty sewers, and the highly fertile giant rats regard the cave as their paradise.

The flood water poured into the cave, and the rats at the entrances of the caves realized the danger, and they rushed to the exit of the river in groups to escape with the flood.

Behind Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue, the giant rats scurried around, and the sewage and dirt brought out of their bodies were mixed together, and the stench was stinking.

"Squeak squeak", rats howled, and the giant rats continued to gather towards the mouth of the hole.

If you don't hurry up and rush out of the city, both of them will be eaten by the rats and die in the sea of rats.

"Chu Tianshu, you let me down." Leng Xue shouted anxiously on Chu Tianshu's back, she was very afraid of rats in her heart, but she was even more worried that Chu Tianshu would be powerless to deal with the attack of the giant rat because she had to take care of herself.

Chu Tianshu refused.

Leng Xue took out a dagger from his backpack and put it across his neck: "Chu Tianshu, if you don't let me down again, I'll break it myself." ”

Chu Tianshu naturally knew Leng Xue's temper, and he had no choice but to put Leng Xue down.

Leng Xue had just stood in the water, and blood was oozing out of her pants.

The rats that smelled the blood were like a treasure, and they followed the blood trails and pounced on the cold snow in droves.

Chu Tianshu turned around and pounced on the rats without hesitation, he waved the branch in his hand and slammed the rats hard.

Hundreds of giant rats quickly pounced on Chu Tianshu like lightning.

Due to the excessive force, the wound on Chu Tianshu's thigh also oozed blood.

Chu Tianshu pounced desperately, grabbed the rats that were close to him and threw them on the cave wall, but the rats swarmed up and rushed straight to the wound in his thigh.

After a few minutes, the giant rats gathered around with their sharp teeth.

"Cold snow, find the saw blade, cut the lock!" Chu Tianshu wrestled with the giant rat while reminding Leng Xue.

Leng Xue handed the dagger to Chu Tianshu, took out the saw blade in the iron box from his backpack, and began to desperately saw the lock.

The tide outside rushed in, and the cold snow was unsteady on its feet, and it was about to be planted in the sewage.

If you fall, it will surely become a delicacy for the giant rats.

Chu Tianshu saw that the cold snow was about to fall, and he quickly grabbed her clothes.

"Hmph", Leng Xue's coat was torn, revealing a pink corset, and the person was still falling to the water.

Chu Tianshu knelt on one leg, stretched out his arm, stopped her chest, and hugged her into his arms.

Leng Xue stood still, but heard the sound of giant rats gnawing behind him.

A giant rat was struggling to bite Chu Tianshu's skin.

Leng Xue couldn't be afraid, reached out and grabbed the mouse, and fell the rock wall.

The giant rat crashed into the rock wall, shattering its bones.

Outside the cave, lightning flashed and thundered, and the storm raged.

Chu Tianshu's eyes erupted with anger, he roared, slashed to death the first giant rat that swam over with one palm, and then frantically grabbed a few giant rats that came close and slammed them into the cave wall.

The head broke and the brain burst out.

Hundreds of rats swam swiftly towards the bloody place.

The river was gradually rising, and the red-eyed Chu Tianshu stood in waist-deep water, using both a dagger and a palm, struggling to block the attack of the giant rat.

Leng Xue had long forgotten to be afraid, and his body had added infinite strength. She clenched the saw blade with both hands, gritted her teeth and sawed the iron lock desperately, her hand was worn by the saw blade and she didn't feel any pain, she had only one thought: quickly, cut the iron lock and escape!

I finally sawed a deep groove in the lock, and I saw that it was about to be done.

As soon as Leng Xue exerted his strength, suddenly, the hot saw blade broke, and a small section in his hand could no longer be used at all.

Chu Tianshu was already in a hurry fighting with the hordes of giant rats alone, and he could only parry.

The river was surging back, and the rats began to rush towards the mouth of the cave desperately in order to escape.

Chu Tianshu saw the giant rat approaching Leng Xue, and hurriedly moved closer to Leng Xue.

Leng Xue stood on Chu Tianshu's lap, roared, flew away, and stepped on the rock wall with the other foot, flew sideways, and stomped on the iron fence fiercely.

The lock flew in response, and the iron fence made a loud noise, and was quickly swept away by the river.

"Quick, run out!" Leng Xue shouted and beckoned, and she herself rushed out of the cave under the action of inertia, and was instantly swept away by the river.

Leng Xue, who was exhausted, couldn't use his right arm to exert his strength, and he saw that he was about to be swept down the river by the turbulent river.

"Chu Tianshu, you go ashore quickly." Cold snow shouted in the water.

Chu Tianshu struggled to swim towards Leng Xue, stretched out his right hand and hugged her, the strength was beyond imagination, and he refused to let go despite the turbulence of the river.

In times of crisis, human potential will naturally burst out.

Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue joined forces, gradually approaching the embankment, and climbed up the embankment with each other's support.

Looking back at the entrance of the cave, the giant rats were still swarming out.

The iron gate that blocked the entrance of the cave was hanging and crumbling by a thin wire rope, Chu Tianshu gritted his teeth, picked up a steel bar with his left hand, and swept it towards the wire rope with force.

"Boom", the wire rope broke.

The "Boom ......" steel gate fell, sealing the hole tightly.

The rats, who didn't have time to escape, slammed into the steel gates with a loud thud and a squeaky wail.

The rain stopped suddenly.

Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue were exhausted, and sat on the embankment with each other, staring at the steel gate stupidly, rain, sweat and tears intertwined, mixed with joy and sorrow, and excited.

The exit of the cave is still an inaccessible barren mountain range, and the green and quiet Qinglian River rushes around the foot of Xiufeng Mountain.

After resting for a while, Chu Tianshu found the compass and the plastic map, and after preliminary analysis, it was judged that their location was on the west side of Xiufeng Mountain, which was the junction with the neighboring provinces, and it was about ten kilometers away from the nearest highway.

Leng Xue's phone was soaked in water during the fight with the giant rat and could never be turned on again.

Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue supported each other, and walked along a winding mountain path towards the mountain step by step.

The mountains are getting closer and closer, the grass and trees are forested, the clouds are surrounded by fog, looking around, there are pine and bamboo shades, the grass leaves are fragrant, the thick white fog between the mountains and mountains begins to drift into the distance, and the gusts of mountain wind are like an invisible palm, blowing on Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue, who are tired and hungry and wearing wet clothes, bringing a chill.

Night is creeping in.

Chu Tianshu used his binoculars to observe along the slippery mountain path, and smiled helplessly: "Leng Xue, I'm afraid we will be sleeping on the mountain again tonight." ”

Leng Xue suddenly remembered something and asked, "Hey, Lao Chu, are the four infrared alarms in your place?" ”

After escaping death, Leng Xue's title of Chu Tianshu was also changed to "Old Chu".

"Nope. When I entered the cave, I set them up in the cave, and I guess they were washed away by the muddy water. ”

"That'...... If you sleep on the mountain, will you encounter snakes and rats? Leng Xue thought of fighting bats, rats, and poisonous snakes in the cave, and involuntarily got goosebumps all over her body, but fortunately her stomach was empty, otherwise, she would have vomited out a long time ago.

Chu Tianshu glanced at her and deliberately said, "It's completely possible." ”

Leng Xue couldn't help but hug Chu Tianshu's arm.

Chu Tianshu gently patted Leng Xue's hand and said, "Don't be afraid, I'll sleep with you in my arms." ”

Leng Xue's face was hot, and she whispered, "Hmph, you must want to take advantage of others again." ”

"Okay then," Chu Tianshu deliberately pretended to be disappointed, and said helplessly: "Then I can only stand guard for you until dawn." ”

"Really?" Leng Xue stopped and looked at Chu Tianshu affectionately, his eyes moistened. "Lao Chu, thank you. As long as you don't dislike it, I'm willing to lie in your arms and fall asleep. ”

Chu Tianshu hugged Leng Xue and whispered softly in her ear: "Leng Xue, you don't need to be too inferior, don't let the scars on your body and past memories become a heavy burden for you, I can shelter you from the wind and rain." ”

Leng Xue burst into tears, she shook her head lightly, and said, "Old Chu, I will be content with your words." I don't need you to promise anything, I have no regrets about being able to dedicate my first time to the man I like. ”

Chu Tianshu didn't speak again, only hugged Leng Xue and walked forward.

After a while, the woods are a little thinner and the trail is a little wider.

Turning a corner, a three-way intersection appears.

Chu Tianshu and Leng Xue froze, hesitating and not knowing which way to go.

At this moment, two flashlights flashed from the oblique thorns, shining on their faces.

A fierce voice shouted, "Stand still, what are you doing?" ”
