27. Vicious layout
By the time I sank to my chest, I was already in despair, by this time the storm had stopped, the wind had turned into a breeze, and I couldn't see a single star in the dark sky. Countless scenes flashed through my mind, including regret for my grandmother, sorry for Aunt Mei, and ...... Reluctance to Sheng Shiyao.
When he was alive and dead, he found out that the last figure left in his mind was him. Feeling slightly bitter, unconsciously, is the feeling for him so deep? But when I am completely submerged here, Sheng Shiyao will not even be able to find any trace of me, I don't know if he will be ...... A little sad?
In fact, the most terrifying thing is not death, but the short process before death, if a person dies instantly without feeling the pain, it is actually not terrifying. On the contrary, like me, I clearly perceive that my vitality is losing little by little, until finally my mouth and nose are filled with sand and suffocate to death, and this process will drive anyone crazy.
I didn't want to go through this process, so I decided to end it early before the last moment. Take a deep breath and shout into the dark night sky: "Sheng Shiyao! The vibration of my vocal cords and chest immediately caused my body to sink, but in a few seconds, the sand went over my neck, and then over my mouth, nose, and eyes, leaving only my hands still outstretched. The pain of suffocation invaded my senses, and just as I was about to let the sand burrow into my mouth and nose, I suddenly felt that the hand stretched out above my head was encircled by something, and an external force was dragging it outward.
The next second, my head was out of the sand again, but my eyes were full of fine sand, and I couldn't open my eyes to see who was pulling me. The external force was very firm, and little by little I pulled my people out of the sand pit, I wiped the sand on my face with my hands, and saw a dark figure squatting beside me in the fog. The other party took a wet cloth and washed my eyes, and gradually saw the familiar face clearly, and the ecstasy poured into my heart little by little.
"No common sense? You can't shout when you're stuck in a bunker, that will speed up the collapse, and if I hadn't caught up in time, I'd have had to dig you under the bunker. Sheng Shiyao whispered, I didn't refute, I didn't want to tell him his last thoughts just now.
When I regained some strength, he helped me up, and I told him to let Alimu run away and not catch up. Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Let you hold him if necessary, I didn't let you fight hard." A person ran away from the team without permission, and you know that there are quicksand pits all around? You can run a few hundred meters to meet here, it's really your creation. I also blamed me for being careless, thinking that Alimu was the best to deal with, but I didn't think he was the most slippery. ”
"What the hell is going on?"
"Still don't get it? This is a bureau set up by Zhou Jing and others, they tricked us into this black stone forest, they wanted to trap us here, the red flower snake in the ancient castle did not swim in by itself as they said, but like those fine flower snakes, they were raised, so they must be able to control the snake, it should be the soul sound method of Wong Tai Sin. deliberately bit Liu Yue, in order to make up a set of lies about strange flowers and detoxification, lure us into the depths of the desert, and then use our familiarity with the terrain to lead us to the vicinity of the quicksand pit, and the three of them planned to escape. ”
After Sheng Shiyao said this, he suddenly remembered a lot of details, from the fact that when Alimu and Chen Bing asked us to abandon the car, they actually felt that something was wrong, and the truck should have fallen on purpose, in order to prevent us from turning around and walking back because of the quicksand pit on the road ahead.
Perhaps they also counted this storm, and they had to hurry by the wind that swept us, and little by little led us to death. As we spoke, we had walked back to the Black Stone Forest, and as expected, Professor Qin's group of people sat around with panicked faces. And under the boulder where we stayed before, Zhou Tong was scolding Chen Bing and Huang Yaocheng, who were lying on the ground and tied tightly.
When I got closer, I heard him scolding: "Your grandfather, want to deceive my old Zhou's eyes?" Hmph, you group of eight lambs, you went back to that ghost place and ate the loss of your surname Huang, Lao Tzu came prepared this time, I want to run, eat your grandfather Zhou's gun, see if you can run. ”
Did you just let go of the gun? Looking down, he saw a blood hole in Chen Bing's calf, Huang Yaocheng didn't seem to be injured, but he was tied up as a pig. It was the sixth son who saw us first and pushed Zhou Tong, who was scolding beside him.
Zhou Tong got up and asked with concern, "Little sister, are you okay?" I shook my head to say that it was okay, and he pulled his voice again: "I said little sister, you are a girl, you don't need to be so brave, in the future, this kind of rough work of chasing people will let me come, fortunately, Brother Yao got you back." I smiled and said nothing, knowing that when he said this, he was actually worried about me, and my heart warmed.
Sheng Shiyao pointed to Chen Bing's injured leg and instructed the sixth son: "Take the bullet for him and bandage it briefly." ”
“hy?” Zhou Tong shouted urgently, and surprisingly said a sentence in English, "This kid wants to yin us, and he will also treat his injuries?" Swept away by Sheng Shiyao's eyes, he suddenly shut up, but the expression on his face was still stupid. I pulled him aside and whispered, "Alimu has run away, there are many quicksand pits on the periphery of this black stone forest, and if one accidentally gets into it, it won't be able to get out, and we have to rely on them to get out of this desert." ”
Zhou Tong immediately straightened out the depression just now, although he didn't help the six sons in the past, but he knew the seriousness of the matter, and he no longer messed around. The sixth son took a bullet for Chen Bing to bandage his wounds, his hands and feet were very rude, and he heard Chen Bing snorting many times, but no one paid attention to it. After finishing it, Sheng Shiyao squatted in front of him and asked, "Why are you running away before you have led us to the sand pit one by one?" ”
Chen Bing lowered his eyes and didn't look at him, but when he didn't hear it, Zhou Tong's heart was angry again, and he stepped forward and kicked him in the wound, and the cry of pain overflowed from his mouth. Huang Yaocheng next to him hurriedly shouted: "Uncle Chen, are you okay?" Chen Bing's face was full of pain, how could he reply, Huang Yaocheng glared at us angrily, and said loudly: "If there is anything you want to ask, come and ask me, you outsiders deserve to die one by one, especially you, causing my eldest brother to be in a different place!" ”
"Who is your eldest brother?" Zhou Tong asked.
"Yaocheng!" Chen Bing shouted angrily in warning, and Huang Yaocheng shut up suddenly. When I saw this, my heart moved, and I read three words: "Huang Yonghui." Seeing that Huang Yaocheng's complexion changed uncontrollably.
This change was naturally taken into Sheng Shiyao's eyes, he hooked his lips lightly, looked at Chen Bing with a smile and said, "Do you know where the loopholes in your bureau are?" First of all, the layout is too clear, if the red flower snake only bites one of us, it can be said to be accidental, but if you want to pull Professor Qin's group of people into the water, it will become suspicious by chance; Secondly, even if you deliberately manipulated the red flower snake to bite a few townspeople, the tension between you and Zhou Jing's demeanor was too hypocritical to hide the certainty in your eyes, because you had a complete way to cure the snake venom, as soon as we hit the road, those people would be fine;
And then there are the people you sent out to act, a Huang Yaocheng who often walks the desert to haul goods, an Alimu who is familiar with the desert terrain, plus you, it seems that there is nothing unreasonable, but you must have forgotten that I have looked for Huang Yonghui, since I can dig out the place of Jinsha Ancient Town from his mouth, I can also dig out other secrets. At the very least, he has a few brothers and sisters, what are they called, and this little thing can still be tricked. ”
"Impossible!" Chen Bing interrupted him suddenly, "Huang Yonghui will never tell you the location of the ancient town, nor will he say anything about the ancient town. Because the curse of the dark demon god will make him worse than death, he has not tasted this taste, but he has seen it with his own eyes, but once he has seen it, he will never dare to betray our ancient town. As for where you found out, I'm not interested, and I don't need to talk to me anymore, I won't eat you. ”
"Oh, is it? Are you so sure? Sheng Shiyao asked softly, "Does the curse of the Dark Demon God mean that the marks on your bodies will burn like fire?" Burn from the top layer of the skin to the bone, and then spread little by little, rolling through your pores, allowing the pain to burn deep into the nerves. The longer you practice, the deeper the totem will be, and it will slowly shift the part, and when the totem moves to the heart, it means that the life span will be exhausted. Am I right? ”
Chen Bing's face suddenly turned to ashes, and he was stunned: "How do you know so much?" Even Huang Yonghui didn't understand it so clearly! This undoubtedly affirmed Sheng Shiyao's judgment just now, I stepped forward, ripped open Chen Bing's sleeve, pulled it to his arm, and looked at the black-winged bat closely, and sure enough, I didn't see any pinhole marks on his skin, as if it was completely imprinted under the surface of the skin. No wonder they worshipped this bat as a demon god, it turned out that there would be this special change in cultivating this secret art.
But I still have one thing to doubt, if Sheng Shiyao's inference is correct, then the matter of the green glass bead guarding the red flower snake should be fake, and what is the real use of the green glass bead? It couldn't be just an ordinary bead, otherwise there would be no red flower snake to lure Sheng Shiyao to fetch it.
Without waiting for me to ask, Liu Yue woke up and turned around, Zhou Tong hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, Sheng Shiyao turned his eyes and glanced at it, and then asked Chen Bing in a cold voice: "How to solve the poison of the red flower snake?" ”
Chen Bing turned his head to look at Liu Yue, and sneered at the corner of his mouth: "She has been deeply poisoned, even if she finds Lingyu Flower, it will be difficult to cure it." ”
"What did you say?" Zhou Tong roared angrily, and his whole face turned red from anger. Seeing this, I stepped forward and reprimanded: "Chen Bing, don't talk nonsense, you still dare to make up that ringfish flower nonsense, quickly say the way to detoxify." ”
Chen Bing raised his eyes and glanced at me, as if he saw something flashing in his eyes, and then listened to him: "You and Ah Gong said that Lingyu Flower can detoxify snake venom, is it false?" There is no need to lie to you about this, and there are indeed in this area of the Black Stone Forest, but that kind of flower is not an ordinary plant, it is a rare species in the desert, just like the ginseng in Changbai Mountain, when you see an animal, it will automatically hide under the sand, and it will move. We're making such a fuss here, and with the previous storm, the bellfish flower has long since run away. ”
