Chapter 67. gloom

Ling Niankong raised the corners of his lips and said sarcastically: "You want to kill me? It was supposed to be a question, but his tone was flat.

When the words fell, everyone except him was stunned. And I clearly felt the danger.

"If you want to kill me, you should do it while I was seriously injured the other day. Right now? ......" he snorted. "Kill yourself."

Before Ling Niankong's words fell, the three men in black stood up and drew their swords and pointed at Ling Niankong. At the same time, they didn't forget to pull me behind me.

I looked at the three men in black in disbelief, their muscles tensed all over their bodies, and they were clearly in a state of readiness.

Why did they kill him? Is it just because he will stop them from taking me?

Seeing this, Ling Niankong stood up slowly and said, "I said that I was killing myself, and I insisted on doing this, which is really beyond my strength." There was a slight sigh in his words: "It's a pity, although the three of you are not my opponents at the moment, but you have a good foundation, if you are not so anxious to seek death, maybe you may really become my opponent one day." ”

Ling Niankong toe on the ground, and the scattered soul was held in his hand. "For the sake of your rescue, I won't draw my sword and play with you."

Before he could finish speaking, one of the men in black stabbed him with his sword. Ling Niankong dodged sideways, raised the scattered soul, and pushed the end of the scabbard towards the heart of the man in black, but when he was about to touch it, he suddenly stopped.

The man in black first breathed a sigh of relief, and then reacted with even more anger on his face.

Obviously, Ling Niankong was playing tricks on them, but if he continued, wouldn't he really kill them?

Remembering that I had accidentally entered the Qingyuan in the Ling Mansion and met an assassin, Ling Niankong did not draw his sword, and only used the scabbard to shatter the man's heart and lungs, and I suddenly felt a chill on my body.

Seeing that Ling Niankong was so arrogant, the three black-clothed people in front of him attacked at the same time, stabbing at Ling Niankong in unison. Ling Niankong scattered his soul horizontally, against the tip of the three people's swords.

The three of them exerted their strength together, and Ling Niankong was forced to take a step back, but he sneered, and pushed the scattered souls that were still against the tips of the three people's swords forward.

The three swords of the man in black rang out in unison, and then all three of them covered their chests with their hands, and blood overflowed from the corners of their mouths, obviously injured by Ling Niankong's internal force.

Ling Niankong didn't give them a chance to breathe, and swirled the scattered soul in his palm, as if he was about to attack again. Seeing this, I hurriedly rushed over, blocking in front of the three men in black, Ling Niankong's eyes flashed, and he stopped his hand in time and stood two steps away from me.

"I saved you all, and no one is allowed to die!" I said to the man: "Ling Niankong, they saved us after all, please let them go." ”

He chuckled, "You seem to have forgotten that they were going to kill me." ”

I turned back to look at the other three. "You're no match for him, so leave it at that."

"But girl, we have a mission to bring her back." The leader of the men in black struggled. It seems that his internal injuries are not light.

"I didn't think I said I wanted to go with you, did I?" I said coldly: "Go back and tell your master, I don't know him, and I won't go with you to see him, so that he won't waste his efforts in vain." ”

"But girl......" said the other man in black.

"If you don't leave, I'm afraid it's really a dead end." I glanced at Ling Niankong. He looked like he didn't care.

The leader of the men in black pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "Go!" ”

"But......" The other two tried to say something more, but were stopped by a look from the chief. So the three of them left as quickly as possible with reluctance.

I looked back at Ling Niankong, and he had sat down again. I was a little worried when I thought that he had just used force. "Are your injuries alright?"

He smiled slightly, as if he was in a good mood. "You want to know ......," he said, taking my hand and placing it lightly on the knot of his own garment. …… See for yourself. "For some reason, his eyes were a little ambiguous, which made me feel uncomfortable.

"If you're still kidding, you'll be fine." I shook his hand away.

"You woman, you really don't know how to be blessed in the midst of blessings. How many women in Beijing want to see it and don't have a chance, you have watched it for so many days without saying anything, and you are reluctant. ”

"Whoever wants to see it, you can show it." I knew that he was deliberately playing tricks on me, so I treated him in the same way: "Since you said that there are so many people who want to see it, it is better for you to clearly mark a price for yourself, and take a look at fifty taels, but you can also make good use of your own conditions to develop and develop a side business." However, this line of food is a youthful meal, if General Ling has this idea, it is better to catch it as soon as possible, and it will be a few years more to catch it. ”

"Oh?" When he heard what I said, instead of being angry, he was full of smiles. "I didn't expect my Ling to be so expensive, it costs fifty taels at a glance. That's how it goes, Miss Yan, you've looked at me for so many days, far more than just one or two glances, I don't know how much silver you plan to give me? ”

Hearing him call me Miss Yan, I only felt a chill.

"I'm saving your life! What happened when I saw you? It's good that I don't ask you for money, but you settle accounts with me. Then I ask you, how many taels of silver is your life worth? ”

He suddenly approached and whispered in my ear, "How many taels do you think my life is worth?" "His exhalation sprayed on my ear, which made me extremely uncomfortable.

I took a step back. "It's going to be higher than the price you sell for anyway."

"Sell yourself?!" He burst out laughing. "So, even if I sell myself to you, I can't afford to save your life?"

I was stunned for a while, I didn't expect this person to be such a scoundrel if he was not serious, but I am not easy to admit defeat. "It's not for sale, it's for free." I glanced at him in disgust. "But even if you're willing to give it for free, I'm not willing to ask for it!"

"Really? But how do I think you want it so much? "He hugged me.

I stomped on the surface of his foot. He let go of me in a daze, and smiled helplessly: "Okay, I won't tease you." My injuries are almost healed, and it is not advisable to stay in the mountains for long, so let's find our way down the mountain. ”

******

When I packed up my things and walked out of the cave, I found that the sky was a little gloomy, and everything I could see was silvery white.

"We ...... In which direction? I asked.

Ling Niankong pointed to the left. That's when I remembered that direction was where we were killed before. The trails there are fairly smooth and relatively easy to walk.

Walking in the direction of the downhill, he slipped and almost fell if he was not careful, but fortunately his hand was held by the man in time. And he frowned. "Why are your hands so cold?"

Without waiting for me to reply, he clasped his hands together and rubbed mine. I was a little uncomfortable, and my hand retracted, but I was still caught by him.

After a moment, my hands finally warmed up. I withdrew my hand and said, "Okay, let's hurry up and go down the mountain, I'm afraid it's about to change when the sky is gloomy." ”

"Okay."

However, not long after I said that, there were literally snowflakes in the air. At first, it was just a few dots, but it didn't take long for it to become a goose feather snow. The wind also became stronger and stronger, blowing snowflakes all over the sky, and I couldn't open my eyes.

My heart sank: it looks like we are in a snowstorm, but we still have a long way to go from the bottom of the mountain, what can we do?

Just as I was thinking that the sky was also overcast, like dusk, the north wind howled more and more violently.

"Looks like we won't be able to get out of here today." The wind and snow were so loud that Ling Niankong could only shout at me.

"Let's find a place to avoid it first!"

He nodded at me. But there was nothing but a tall snowy slope nearby, and where was there a place to hide?

Suddenly, I heard a loud rumbling sound behind me. We followed the prestige, and saw another mountain in the distance, covered with snow and wind, sweeping in our direction, and it seemed that it would not take an hour to reach our current position.

We all looked at each other, and his eyes were full of solemnity.

It's impossible to get to the bottom of the mountain before the snowstorm arrives, but what if there is a hiding place around?

I looked back at the tall snowy slope and suddenly I grabbed him by the sleeve. "Ling Niankong, will you dig a snow hole?"

Hearing this, his eyes lit up, and he looked at me with a little appreciation.

"Yes, don't waste time!" I pulled him and ran towards the slopes. He pulled out the scattered soul and began to dig a hole, while I helped.

Snow caves, as the name suggests, are the safest places to shelter from snowstorms by digging a hole in a high and very firm snow slope.

A snow cave sounds simple, but it's not easy to dig it by hand: the entrance to the cave must be lower than the entire cave to prevent wind and snow from pouring in. Therefore, after digging the hole horizontally, it is necessary to change the direction and dig upwards, which is extremely laborious.

Xu is time is pressing, Ling Niankong moved extremely fast, and he also used internal force, and the hole was dug in a short time.

He continued to dig upwards, while I kept clearing the snow he had dug out, and gradually my hands became numb from freezing, but I was sweating all over, and the sweat quickly condensed into ice in my clothes, which was extremely uncomfortable, but I still did not dare to stop.

It took us nearly an hour to finally dig the snow hole. He also did not forget to stab a few small holes with his sword above the snow cave for ventilation.

Looking back, the monstrous snow was already in front of me. Ling Niankong pulled me into the snow cave. Due to the tight schedule, we didn't have much space in the snow cave, and we could only sit up straight in it.

"It's cold!" My hand was almost unconscious.

When Ling Niankong heard this, he took off his coat and put it on for me. He took my hand and rubbed it and breathed.

"Is it better?" He asked with concern.

"Hmm......" My hands regained some warmth, and the ice that had been frozen on my clothes began to melt.

After a little relief, I looked around at the snow cave where we were hiding. Because the entrance is open below, the inside of the cave is dark.

Suddenly, a feeling of suffocation came over my face, and I subconsciously pulled my neckline. But to no avail, the feeling of suffocation became more and more intense. Before I knew it, my breathing was rapid, and the sound of my chaotic breathing was filling the entire cave.

"What's wrong with you?" Ling Niankong noticed that something was wrong with me, and asked with both hands on my shoulders.

I didn't have time to pay attention to him, my eyes swept up and down the walls of the small snow cave, only to feel that the four walls were approaching one after another, and the roof of the cave was getting lower and lower, as if I would be crushed to death in the cave.

I gradually lost my breath. The terrible fear made me unable to hide, and my body trembled uncontrollably. I forced myself to close my eyes.

Yan Linxuan, these are just the fears in your heart! It's all your illusion! Haven't you long ago overcome your fear of claustrophobia? Got over it back when you were a teenager, haven't you forgotten? You already know there's nothing to be afraid of, don't you?

Perhaps it was the psychological suggestion that worked, and the fear in my heart seemed to be lessened a little. I tentatively opened my eyes, but I felt a strong dizziness when my surroundings reappeared, and my eyes suddenly turned into absolute darkness, and all my efforts were in vain.

I hallucinated in front of my eyes and felt like I was in a coffin.

I was terrified to the extreme, and I felt as if I was going to be buried silently, so I banged on the walls desperately. "Let me out! Let me out! I cried uncontrollably.
