Zhang Bao'er, Wu Yanxiu and Hou Jie worked together to carry the bodies of Lao Zhaohua and Mu Qian to the steps of the cave. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhang Bao'er scratched her head and said to Wu Yanxiu: "Young Master Wu, how should this door be opened?" ”

"Wait, I'll come when I go!"

Wu Yanxiu returned to the stone room and took the oil lamp. He shone around with an oil lamp, but he didn't notice a handle to open the door.

"Bao'er, I'm afraid the situation is a little bad!" Wu Yanxiu frowned and said, "This door may only be opened outside, not inside!" ”

"Huh?" Zhang Baoer was stunned when she heard this, if it was really as Wu Yanxiu said, then the situation was really a little bad.

Zhang Baoer stepped forward and touched the stone door.

"Shhh Zhang Bao'er's hand retracted suddenly.

"What's wrong?" Wu Yanxiu saw that Zhang Bao'er's face was different, and hurriedly asked.

"Why is this so hot?" Zhang Bao'er asked strangely while blowing on her hot palms.

"How can the door be hot?" Wu Yanxiu also stepped forward and touched it, and it was really hot.

Zhang Baoer remembered that when the purple-clothed people rushed in, they were kicked in by Lao Zhaohua, and for this reason, Lao Zhaohua was also hit by a crossbow arrow and died.

Thinking of this, Zhang Bao'er became serious: "Master Wu, it is estimated that something has happened outside the cave, if we really can't open the door, we have to find another way, otherwise we will be trapped inside!" ”

Zhang Bao'er guessed correctly at all, something did happen outside the cave. The Great Bell Hall was set on fire by the purple clothes, and at this moment it had collapsed into a ruin.

Wu Yanxiu took a deep breath and said, "Let me try it first!" ”

After that, Wu Yanxiu used all his strength and slammed his palm on the stone door.

I only heard a "bang", and the dust shook everywhere, but the stone gate did not move at all.

The stone gate itself weighs thousands of pounds, and the collapse of the Great Bell Hall has completely buried the stone gate underneath, and it is not possible to open it by manpower at all.

Wu Yanxiu sighed and said, "Bao'er, it seems that we really have to find another way!" ”

Zhang Bao'er thought about it: "That's it! The bodies of Master and Mu Qian will be placed here first, and the three of us will go to find other exits together. When you find the exit, come back and take their bodies out! ”

Wu Yanxiu and Hou Jie nodded in agreement.

The three of them held oil lamps and felt deep into the hole.

Zhang Baoer thought that the hole was not big, but she knew that she had been groping for a long time, and there was no end.

The steps at the entrance to the cave and the stone chamber were artificially made. Other than that, it's all naturally occurring further in. The walls of the cave are rocky and uneven, and there is a seemingly endless number of paths that turn off every distance you walk.

The three of them couldn't tell the direction in the hole, and whenever they encountered a fork in the road, they could only choose one at random by luck and continue walking.

After walking for a short time, the oil lamp went out, and the surroundings fell into darkness.

Hou Jie was a little deflated, and he asked, "Bao'er, it's like a labyrinth here, when will we find the exit?" ”

"I don't know when I'll find the exit, I just know that if I look for it, there may be a glimmer of hope, if I don't find it, then I'll have to wait for death!"

Wu Yanxiu agreed: "Bao'er is right, we can't wait for death, we must try to find an exit!" ”

Speaking of this, Wu Yanxiu suggested: "Bao'er, the three of you are looking for it together, it's too wasteful of time to find it like this, why don't we look for it separately?" ”

"No way!" Zhang Baoer flatly refused: "The monkey is right, this is like a maze, we can still take care of each other together, if we get lost, it will be even worse!" ”

The two were helpless, followed Zhang Baoer, and continued to grope forward.

The three of them stopped and stopped, and I don't know how long it took, but they never found the exit.

Zhang Bao'er was also a little unable to walk, he proposed: "Wu Gongzi, monkey, let's rest, who doesn't know how long it will take to find the exit, we have to save some physical strength!" ”

Wu Yanxiu and Hou Jie didn't say a word, so they had to sit down with Zhang Bao'er.

Perhaps because they were too tired, all three of them fell asleep.

I don't know how long I slept, Zhang Baoer woke up first. He groped and woke up Wu Yanxiu and Hou Jie.

Hou Jie rubbed his eyes and asked Zhang Bao'er in a hoarse voice, "Bao'er, are you still looking for it?" Can we get out? ”

Whether he can go out or not, Zhang Baoer has no bottom in his heart, but he knows that he must not show any flaws at this moment, otherwise his confidence in Hou Jie will be a fatal blow.

"Monkey, don't worry, we'll be able to get out!" Zhang Bao'er pretended to pat Hou Jie's shoulder easily, and said to Wu Yanxiu: "Wu Gongzi, let's continue walking!" ”

"Bao'er! We listen to you! Wu Yanxiu took the lead in getting up.

The three of them continued on their way.

Fear of the dark is human nature, and the three of them are no exception, and they would not even be willing to take another step if it weren't for the desire to survive that sustained them.

In this way, the three of them walked for a while, and then walked for a while, but they never found the entrance to the cave.

As time passed, their steps became heavier and heavier, and they couldn't even move their legs.

"Oh my God!" Hou Jie couldn't help but exclaim.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Baoer was shocked.

Hou Jie stammered, "I'm ...... We...... Back to ...... It's time to start! ”

"Where did it begin?" Zhang Baoer was inexplicable.

"Cave Entrance...... We're back at the cave where we started! Hou Jie swallowed and said, "Bao'er, the bodies of Uncle Shi and Mu Qian are right in front." ”

Zhang Baoer knew that Hou Jie had divine skills, and when he heard him say this, his heart sank, and he stepped forward without saying a word.

Sure enough, Zhang Baoer touched the bodies of Lao Minghua and Mu Qian.

Hou Jie was right, they went back to where they were.

Hou Jie sat on the ground with his butt and said with a crying voice: "Bao'er, it seems that we are destined to die here!" ”

Although Wu Yanxiu didn't speak, it could be heard from his heavy breathing that his heart was also messed up.

What to do?

Zhang Baoer was also a little deflated.

Now, darkness is not the main problem for them, and their greatest enemy is hunger and thirst.

Although Zhang Bao'er didn't know how long the three of them had been in the cave, in terms of hunger and thirst, it should have been at least two or three days.

Now? Zhang Bao'er was hungry, there was a fire burning in her stomach, her legs were so weak that she couldn't even stand upright, and the feeling of hunger and fear spread to her whole body.

What made them even more unbearable than hunger was thirst, and Zhang Baoer felt as if her blood was getting thicker and slower.

But is it really going to wait for death here?

Zhang Bao'er was unwilling, he stood up strongly, licked his chapped lips and said resolutely: "Even if I die, I will die on the way to survive, and I will never wait for death here!" As for the two of you, if you don't want to go again, I won't force it! I'll go first! ”

After saying that, Zhang Baoer turned around and staggered back to the road she had just come from.

"Bao'er, you wait, I'll go with you!" Wu Yanxiu chased after him.

Hou Jie hesitated for a moment, and quickly got up: "Bao'er, I'll go with you too!" ”
