Chapter 1229: In the Cave
Princess Jinhua didn't want to abandon Lin Jue and run away, in fact, she should have left Lin Jue when she fled just now. But she couldn't. She must have this shield and hostage, she knows the power of the opponent's firearms, if she doesn't take Lin Jue with her, she is afraid that she will be shot by the opponent's firearms when she jumps in the air. So she chose to flee with Lin Jue, although it was a bit cumbersome, but the other party did not dare to shoot indiscriminately with firearms and crossbows.
And at this moment, she can't leave Lin Jue behind. She knew the other party was going to catch up. The martial arts skills of those two women are good, and the others are nothing, but when they are caught up by these two women, she may not be an opponent. So take Lin Jue away, and you can still be used as a hostage to protect yourself at a critical time. Although she really wanted to slash Lin Jue with a knife, so as not to slow down her actions with this burden, reason told her that now was not the time.
Princess Jinhua's purpose is to get rid of her opponents from the woods, and use the cover of the dark forest to make a detour to the docks, as long as she can get the answer from her men, she can successfully escape and get on the ship and leave. So she dragged Lin Jue through the woods, eagerly looking for the direction, and trying to avoid the people chasing behind her, so she unconsciously deviated from the direction and didn't know where she was.
Lin Jue was dragged by her and felt painful, and couldn't help but say, "This girl, don't mess around, this island is very dangerous." I suggest we sit down and talk and gain mutual trust. Rest assured, we're not here to assassinate you, we're just stumbling upon you here. I don't want to get into trouble, so let's talk calmly, wouldn't it? ”
Princess Jinhua was drenched in sweat, and when she was anxious, she couldn't find the direction and made her a little flustered, how could she listen to Lin Jue's words. dragged Lin Jue and continued to walk around. Finally, she walked out of the forest, only to find that instead of the sea, she found that there were not seas in front of her, but craggy rocks and black rocks. High cliffs. Instead of walking back to the docks, she went in the opposite direction, coming inland to Snake Island.
The snow has a faint reflection, but it is obscure. Lin Jue knew that there were actually potholes under the snow, but Princess Jinhua didn't know it. She was anxious to find a way out, and dragged Lin Jue to walk around with her instincts. Lin Jue repeatedly warned her not to walk around, but she was willing to listen, but instead threatened with a blade. Lin Jue was helpless.
Finally, Princess Jinhua dragged Lin Jue to the bottom of a mountain cliff, and she seemed to hear the sound of the tide in her ears, which meant that she had arrived at the seaside. Once you find the sea, you can walk along the coast back to the pier. Princess Jinhua's face finally showed a relieved expression, and she grabbed Lin Jue's collar and walked quickly on the white snow in front of her, however, at this moment, an accident happened. A piece of snow underfoot cracked without warning, and Princess Rao is Golden Flower had the martial arts to react quickly, but she was still a step slower in the situation of exhaustion and defenselessness. Her hands failed to touch the ground, and her body fell rapidly.
Lin Jue naturally needless to say, he was already dragged forward, and he didn't have the agility of a martial arts practitioner, Princess Jinhua still struggled, but he fell down without resistance.
With a bang, Lin Jue only felt that the world was spinning, and his back hurt, and this fall made him stumble. However, before he could react, there was a click, and a heavy object fell into Lin Jue's arms, Lin Jue was hit by this, and he didn't snort, and fainted all of a sudden.
……
I don't know how long later, Lin Jue woke up slowly, and it was dark in front of him. Only the faint sound of the tide was heard, and the sound of water dripping near the left. There was some pain in my body. Lin Jue subconsciously moved his hands and feet, pressed his ribs, and found that he did not have serious injuries such as broken hands and feet. The pain on your body is likely to be a muscle sprain or a pain that has broken through the flesh.
Lin Jue secretly screamed that he was lucky, and suddenly, the sound of Suo Suo came from the side. Lin Jue looked in the faint light and saw a figure staggering towards him.
"Is the girl hurt?" Lin Jue asked.
"Humph!" The figure was none other than Princess Jinhua, and she walked over and sat not far away glaring at Lin Jue.
"I told you not to wander around. This island is dangerous. You just don't listen. It's good now, but I don't know where it fell. Ay! Lin Jue complained.
"Shut up! Didn't you say there were cracks in the ground on this island? It's all your fault. Princess Jinhua said angrily.
Lin Jue frowned and smiled bitterly, and said in his heart: This woman is really unreasonable, my wives and concubines in my family are all knowledgeable and courteous, how can there be such a woman. The Jurchen barbarian woman is really uneducated and extremely barbaric. I don't have to reason with her. ”
"I'll see if there's a way out." Lin Jue got up with difficulty and looked around.
"No need to look for it, there is no way out at all, I've already seen it. There are only tiny cracks that people can't get through. And...... It is more than ten zhang away from the top of the cave entrance, and the cave wall is also very smooth, and it can't go up at all. Princess Jinhua said in a deep voice.
Lin Jue was stunned, and his heart was cold. In this way, it is a place of death. Fortunately, there were some soft dead grass branches on the ground, perhaps from the hole that had fallen from the cave over the years, otherwise that fall would have killed them. If you can't get out of here, you can only rely on people outside to find yourself. But Bing'er, Mu Qing and Sun Dayong only have so many people, and it will take a long time to search the whole island without pulling an inch, and if they are unlucky, even if they find here, they are afraid that they will die here.
"Bad luck, it's really bad luck, how did you meet your group? It's all because of you. I'll kill you. Princess Jinhua lost her temper inexplicably, stood up, and walked over viciously with a scimitar.
Lin Jue frowned and said, "You have to think clearly, kill me, and you will have to stay here alone in front of my corpse." ”
Princess Jinhua was stunned, sat down dejectedly, covering her face at a loss.
Lin Jue said softly: "Don't panic, I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to find us, we have to save ourselves." Do you have a fire fold on you? Gotta light a torch. ”
"I didn't!" Princess Jinhua shook her head.
Lin Jue frowned and was speechless, he didn't have a fire fold on his body. After a moment of silence, Lin Jue said, "Then...... Where's my firearm? Can you lend me one? I use gunpowder to make a fire. ”
Princess Jinhua was stunned and said, "You don't want to lie to me, do you want to get back the firearm to deal with me?" ”
Lin Jue smiled bitterly: "You and I have fallen into such a situation, what else can I do with you?" If you want to deal with it, you will also get out of danger, otherwise if you die, will I have to face your corpse here and wait for death alone? How horrible is that? ”
Princess Jinhua thought about it, nodded slightly, stretched out her hand to grope on her body, and suddenly said, "Firearms...... In Qiu Yu's inner bag, Qiu Yu was shelled and thrown away by my golden cicada when he escaped from the house. ”
“……”
Lin Jue stared at Princess Jinhua for a long time, opened his mouth and stammered, unable to say a word.
Princess Jinhua said angrily: "What do you blame me for? If you hadn't forced me, how would I have done this? Do you blame us for killing people without saying anything? How do I know you're not going to kill me? I had to escape. ”
Lin Jue sat down dejectedly, waved his hand and said, "I don't blame you, I don't blame you." Hey, it's a big problem. That's how it can be good. ”
The cave fell into dead silence, Lin Jue and Princess Jinhua gathered a few feet together and sat on the ground, hearing the strange sound of wind and thunder in the cave, knowing that it was because the cave was close to the sea, and there must be a sound of underground seawater pouring in. But there is no way out. The two of them sat there like clay sculptures and wood carvings, not knowing what to do.
I don't know how long it took, Lin Jue's body was cold and biting. He turned his head to look at Princess Jinhua, but saw her hugging her shoulders and shivering. After the loss of her fur, she seemed to be wearing only a tight jacket. It was nothing when she ran for her life, but at this moment, the cold air hit her body, and the sweat on her body would make her lose temperature quickly, which was fatal. If you don't take measures, let alone a few days, you won't even be able to survive the night.
Lin Jue stood up and slowly took off his outer body. Princess Jinhua looked up when she heard the sound, and found that Lin Jue was undressing, and exclaimed in horror: "What are you doing?" What are you doing? If you dare to be rude, I will kill you. ”
Lin Jue frowned and said, "You have already threatened to kill me dozens of times, if you want to kill me, you can do it." If you don't want to die, you will put me on this outer cloth. ”
Lin Jue raised his hand and threw the outer sword on Princess Jinhua. Princess Jinhua was stunned and speechless.
"I'll have to make a fire with your scimitar, or we'll freeze to death soon." Lin Juedao.
"No, you don't want to trick me." Princess Jinhua exclaimed.
Lin Jue said angrily: "What did I do to you? It's life and death, will I kill you? I don't have to kill you, in a few hours, we'll all freeze to death, you know? ”
Princess Jinhua said: "How can a scimitar make a fire?" How did I not know? ”
Lin Jue said: "You take a knife and hit me on the stone wall a few times, it may not be so easy to make a fire, it depends on whether God opens his eyes." If the stone quality is not successful, it is still in vain. ”
Princess Jinhua didn't know what she meant, but she still held the scimitar in her hand and struck it the stone wall next to her.
"Hard, rubbing the corners of the rocks. With the back of a knife. Lin Jue said.
Princess Jinhua swung her scimitar and slammed into a protruding piece of the stone wall, and in the darkness, several sparks burst out, as brilliant as sparks in the dark night.
"God willing, this stone can strike a spark, then there is hope." Seeing Mars, Lin Jue was overjoyed and shouted loudly.
Princess Jinhua was puzzled, but Lin Jue was extremely happy. Iron and stone striking will cause sparks to emerge. Suishi is actually a kind of quartz stone, which is very common in the mountains. Lin Jue felt that the rocks here were very hard, and it was very likely that he would be able to make a fire, so he decided to give it a try.
Lin Jue groped for a large number of debris branches on the ground, but these debris branches were very wet, but Lin Jue still decided to give it a try. Because he still has a powder sac on his body, he can use sparks to ignite gunpowder, and maybe make a fire.
Princess Jinhua also understood Lin Jue's intentions, she didn't know how to beat fire, so although she hesitated, she finally took the first step to trust the other party and gave Lin Jue the meniscus knife. Lin Jue smashed down a rock with the handle of his knife, and then squatted next to the ignition and started a fire. At first, Princess Goldenflower craned her neck to look around, but he was soon disappointed. Because only one or two sparks fell several times, but they were extremely short-lived, and they were quickly annihilated when they fell into the firewood. Princess Jinhua thought in her heart that she would not be able to ignite the fire in this way, and the hope in her heart slowly disappeared with the monotonous sound of fire. The body was cold and biting, and she shivered, so she subconsciously threw Lin Jue to her and then was draped on her body by the big sword that she waved aside, and shrank aside.
'Click, click, click. The sound of Lin Jue's fire continued, as if it was a futile thing, but Lin Jue insisted on doing it, and it seemed that he was too persistent.
