Volume 1 The Four Elephant Demon Palace Chapter 19 Rest
People have bad roots, and I am especially numerous. I'm forward-looking, indecisive, sentimental, and so on, and so on, and I can't think of words to describe it for a while.
My chest was tight, it felt like something was clogged, I was so uncomfortable that I wanted to cry. I know what caused me to have this emotion, but I can't let go of it, I can only suppress it.
How ambivalent am I? For example, when I watch a game, I naturally want people from my own country to win, but when I see people from other countries who are depressed, regretful, or even cry bitterly after losing, I will also sympathize and feel uncomfortable.
There will always be a desire to find the best of both worlds, but how can there be a best of both worlds? So I'm conflicted because I want to be perfect.
When the light birds began to help us, I would only be glad and accept it. But when I saw the light bird show the word "go", I knew that the light bird was on our side.
Since it's on our side, I don't want them to be sacrificed like that. But I can't do anything, I hate, I am sad, I break away from Li Xiang and the water, and run desperately, just like when I was wronged when I was a child, no one to tell, no one to understand, and I wanted to find a corner to cry alone.
We've run far away, and we can still hear the earth-shattering roar of the black-armored giant behind us. I don't want to hear it, because it always reminds me of that green rain.
I ran as hard as I could, trying to get out of here. Another bad root is that when I encounter something that I can't solve or bear, I choose to run away, habitually run away.
I broke free from Li Xiang and Shui Rising, and gradually overtook the Victorian team running in front, and as I passed Alice's side, I saw her look at me.
I was in a bad mood and was expressionless, and Alice was immediately aroused by my actions, and shouted in the back: "Oh, you still run with my mother?" As he spoke, he quickened up and caught up.
I didn't bother to pay attention to her, but I overtook everyone in Victoria's squad and ran to the front, Alice following behind me, sneering at me from time to time.
In the pitch black of the underground forest, I ran, aimlessly, just wanting to escape, not from the threat of death, but from the grief, the grief of the death of the birds of light.
And for some reason, none of the others questioned my escape route and kept running after me. I ran at the front, all because of a breath, a breath of stuffiness that I couldn't let go.
But the turbidity always goes away, and when the breath is gone, I realize that something is wrong. I was panting, my heart was beating so hard that I could barely hear any other sounds, and in my head, in my ears, only my heart was beating violently, and every time it beat, there was a buzzing in my ears.
My body was starting to fail, my legs were sore, and it felt like the flesh was about to burst out. But I think it's a bit embarrassing to stop now, I was leading just now, but now it's not good, it's a shame, so I gritted my teeth and held on.
Holding on, my leg didn't hurt so much because it was so numb that I could barely feel it. I haven't exercised vigorously for a few years, and my fitness has already dropped to its lowest.
So I was soon overtaken by Victoria and the others again, and gradually fell behind, if it weren't for Li Xiang and Shui Rising, who pulled me again, I would probably have fallen behind.
Here you can see how powerful Victoria and Li think they are, running with all their strength with weight, not only do they not fall behind, but they can also pull me, and I see that they are slightly panting, and there is very little sweat on their bodies, unlike me who even wet my underwear.
Seeing them like this also aroused my competitive spirit, of course I will not compete with them now, I plan to make it out alive, I will insist on exercising, and pick up all the previous efforts.
I was so tired that I felt like my consciousness was blurred, and my eyes couldn't be opened with sweat. can only be pulled by Li Xiang, mechanically stepping forward with his unconscious legs.
Vaguely, I heard Phoebe say to Victoria that we had been running for almost two hours, Victoria didn't reply, and continued to run, I don't know how long it was, when suddenly Alice reminded: "There's a light ahead!" I looked up in a daze, and there was indeed some light ahead, and we ran towards it.
The light came from a cave, and Victoria had already formed a commando formation to rush inside. We followed. The further you go inside, the brighter the light becomes. After walking dozens of steps inside, it suddenly became clear that it was a large hall.
The light came from inside, because they didn't know the specific situation inside, Victoria and the others did not rush forward, but at the entrance, carefully observed.
We were quite far behind, mainly because I was holding us down. Along the way, Li Xiang and the water rose, pulling me, and I was tired enough. As soon as they saw that Victoria and the others were investigating, they let go of their hands and prepared to rest first.
However, when they stopped, I couldn't, and more than two hours of mechanical movement made me continue to run forward by inertia. When I had already rushed out of the main hall, everyone woke up, and they couldn't be blamed, after all, after running for so long, even if they were beaten with iron, they should be tired.
I rushed in so recklessly, and everyone was naturally worried, but of course they were not worried about the comfort of my life. Instead, I was worried that I had alarmed some unknown beings inside and endangered their lives.
However, there was nothing in it, I threw myself into the hall, I don't know if it was too much inertia, or something else, I fell in and rolled on the ground many times, I don't know how many times I rolled, anyway, I felt dizzy. In the end, he closed his eyes and passed out.
The ultra-intense vigorous exercise, the extremely tense nerves, and the vague sadness made it better to say that I had passed out than to say that I had fallen asleep.
I don't know how long I slept, but when I woke up, I felt much better, both physically and mentally. When I woke up, I found that my surroundings were quiet, and when I looked up, I was not sleeping in the main hall, but in the cave that led to the main hall.
I moved my body, and I slept on the floor cold and hard, and it was uncomfortable, but as soon as I turned around, I found that it was Alice sleeping next to me.
She slept quietly, quietly, and by the faint light, I could see her smooth and fair face, long eyelashes, and she was beautiful. I said to myself in my heart, but I don't have any dirty thoughts right now.
I sat up slowly, and then crossed the water on the other side to change to Li Xiang, who was on guard. Lee wanted to see me, barely revealing a pale danger.
I knew the pain in Li Xiang's heart, patted Li Xiang's shoulder to show comfort, and asked in a low voice, "How long have I been asleep?"
"Five or six hours!" Li Xiang looked at his watch and said.
I nodded and said to Li Xiang, "I'll do it for you, you go sleep for a while!"
Li Xiang shook his head and said, "I have already changed with Shui Rising just now, you can go sleep for a while if it's okay!"
I insisted, "Go to sleep!" I got it! ”
Li thought about it, nodded and said, "Then pay attention, there is a trap at the entrance of the cave, don't get close!"
I nodded my head in agreement, then sat down against the rock wall and pulled out my flashlight and shone it towards the entrance of the cave. The entrance to the cave I am guarding now is on the other side of the forest, which means that Lao Cai, who has become a monster, and those black-armored giants, are very likely to come over.
I saw several lines on the other side of the hole, apparently improvised traps made with grenades.
I looked back at Victoria, and it was Phoebe who was on the alert, and Serena, Alice, and Luna were all sleeping, but Victoria was gone.
I wanted to ask, but I was afraid of disturbing the others, so I took out food and water, and ate and drank it. I didn't dare to eat or drink much. Eating enough can easily make people lazy and sleepy, and their vigilance will become poor. Drinking too much water is easy and convenient, in movies and novels, there are countless people who have lost their lives because of convenience, I don't want to.
After waiting for about an hour, I saw Victoria come back, and as soon as Victoria returned, she woke up the others. Of course, this other person does not include me, Li Xiang and Shuisheng. I also quickly woke up Li Xiangshui and approached the past.
Victoria is giving orders: "Sober up, eat something and drink some water, it's convenient!" Everyone got busy, and I really wanted to be convenient, so I asked Li Xiang if they wanted to go.
Li Xiang nodded, and the rising tide naturally followed. At this time, I noticed that Victoria's side was also acting collectively, and it seems that they should also be convenient. We cautiously crossed the trap and came out of the hole, with men on the left and women on the right, and it was convenient for us on both sides of the hole.
In fact, I usually read those novels, and I rarely see the protagonists eating, drinking, and sleeping, and I have always suspected that those protagonists are immortals, who can not eat or drink, sleep without sleeping, and do not pull or sleep. Later, I realized that my thinking was too narrow, because the author felt that such a trivial matter was not worth mentioning at all. And I'm still thinking about whether it's reasonable, originally a novel, it's higher than reality, even if it's exaggerated and virtual, it's okay, but I'm so serious, in the words that are fashionable now, that is, if you're serious, you'll lose.
After taking turns to end conveniently, everyone returned to the cave again, began to eat and drink, I took out the food and water I had brought, and distributed some to Li Xiang and Shuisheng.
As for Victoria, I ignored them and didn't give them, not even politely. It may be that I'm stingy, but the main thing is that this is also a kind of capital, they are basically running out of food and water this time and they are going to bottom out, and I still have half a backpack of food and water. If I save food alone, I can eat for a week.
Who knows how long I'm going to stay underground, in case I can't get out for a while, I don't care about others, at least I can't starve to death first, so I didn't give them food, completely out of my selfish thoughts, but it's okay, because I carried it myself, it was my own.
In addition, I gave Li Xiang and the water rise just a little bit, a piece of chocolate per person, and a small half bottle of water. I've eaten it before, but of course I can't get enough of it, and when everyone is eating, I pull out a piece of chocolate, break it by a third, and put it in my mouth. Alice came over, staring at the chocolate in my hand with a glow in her eyes.
I gave her a blank look and put the chocolate in my backpack, and she was immediately anxious: "Will I die if I eat a piece?"
I ignored her, shoved the chocolate in my hand into my mouth, and took a big gulp, I don't know if it was because I was too hungry or for some other reason, and there was a lot of saliva in my mouth, and it almost didn't come out.
As I ate, I acted as if I was intoxicated and satisfied, deliberately hungry for Alice. I thought that this product would leave angrily, but I didn't expect this product to be greedy, and immediately made a pitiful appearance, and sighed: "Brother, give someone a piece to eat!"
In fact, I'm still quite snobbish, belonging to the kind of people who don't see rabbits and don't scatter eagles, and I won't give it out for nothing if there is no benefit. It reminded me of the first time I was laughed at by Alice when I pretended to have so much food, and at that time, I secretly thought that if I needed this food, I would only take a bite of it.
I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen now, I was a little happy, but my face was tense.
Alice leaned over slowly and whispered in my ear, "Why don't I kiss you and give me a piece?"
Alice was so close to me, and the air of her voice tickled my ears, and I almost nodded my head with joy when I said this thought I had always dreamed of.
However, in the next second, my dream was shattered, and the girl said viciously: "You are so beautiful, hurry up and give the old lady a piece, otherwise I will kill you!" Of course, I was not afraid of her threats, but I was a little weak in my heart, and I really liked Alice, so I finally took out two-thirds of the chocolate I had leftover, and tried to break a piece for her, but she snatched it from her.
Alice, who got the chocolate, immediately happily returned to her team to show off, and walked around and said: "That guy can change the food there, kiss for a bite to eat, look at me This is the exchange of kisses for two mouthfuls!"
Suddenly, I felt several unkind glances at me, and Li Xiang and Shui Sheng looked at me a little strangely, which made me very embarrassed.
But Luna, a girl of Japanese descent, looked at Alice with admiration and said, "Alice, you are so amazing!"
When I heard this, I obviously saw that the other three people in Victoria's team showed expressions of helplessness and hatred almost at the same time.
