172. There must be self-reliance

After thinking about it, he listened to the footsteps behind him and was still some distance away, so he lowered his voice and said, "There are some things that I will explain to you when we go out, okay?" ”

"Didn't you already guess my mind, what else do you explain?"

I was stunned, turned my head to look at him, my mind flashed, and I suddenly understood what he was talking about, "You really already knew my ......" Gu Xi's dark eyes locked on me, "Do you think your little trick can hide from me?" ”

Even though he said this, and knew that he was observant, I still didn't believe it, because I hadn't done it once before today. The suspicion in my eyes was looked at by him, and I only heard him sneer: "It's not the first time you've ever thought about fighting back, every time you clench your fists, you're forbearance and restraint, and a person can hide his skills, but he can't hide his instinctive reactions from psychology to physiology." But you do hide deeply, and I didn't think about it at first, do you know when you showed your feet? ”

I shook my head suddenly, and he smiled lightly: "When you were caught by the Xie family's father and son, you wanted to kill your mouth." ”

That...... It's true that I want to protect myself, because the Xie family's father and son really have murderous intent against me, and I don't know where Gu Xi is, if I don't fight back, I can only wait for death. But at that time, he may have had some scruples and still kept his hand, but just bumped into Xie Tianyuan and escaped from the danger range, even if Gu Xi was hiding under the debris at that time, how did he know when he couldn't see it?

"Breath." Gu Xi said two words, "Even if a woman is as smart as you, it is impossible for her to be fearless in the face of two vicious people." Since there is no fear, there is only one possibility," he said with a smile: "There must be self-reliance." ”

After smelling it, I ...... Speechless.

Perhaps, as he said, there are instincts that people can't hide when they are in danger. It's like learning to swim, even if you haven't swam for ten or twenty years, when you suddenly and accidentally fall into the water, your instinctive hands and feet will move.

Gu Xi finally narrowed his eyes, and his cold tone came into his ears: "I have to communicate with you when things happen here." ”

He said the word "communication" very lightly, like a claw scratching his heart, secretly smiling bitterly, and it would be difficult to look back.

After that, he said no more, and walked forward with a solemn expression, and it was not long before he saw a man lying on the ground. Judging from the unheaving chest, they must have died, but the two men were completely unrecognizable, and they could only vaguely identify from the ragged clothes that they were one of the subordinates brought in by the owner.

There is no doubt that this person was bitten to death by a moth, but how many moths have bitten them in this miserable situation? If only a part of the moths flew out to attack us, then where did the rest go?

I believe that this question will be doubted in everyone's heart, and suddenly heard an exclamation behind him, but it was instantly stifled. When I turned my head, I saw He Zhixu covering Xiao You's mouth hard, and Xiao You's eyes were frightened, He Zhixu's eyes met me and pointed upward.

I raised my head, if I hadn't been mentally prepared, I was afraid that I would have been as frightened as Xiaoyou.

Just above the darkness above our heads, a man was hung with his feet in the air, but there was neither a tree nor an empty space on the top, how could we hang this man on the top? As the flashlight shone into the darkest places, everyone was horrified, and the dense moths that had just attacked us were all attached to the top wall above our heads. I don't know how that man hung there, but he was covered with big black moths from head to neck, and he couldn't see his true face.

This man does not look like the owner of the village, and is likely to be another subordinate who has just come in.

Suddenly, I heard Gu Xi's deep order: "Dim the lights." Qin Zhou, who was holding a flashlight, immediately reacted very quickly and did so, I believe that the truth of the moth to the fire is understood by everyone present, but are you sure that you can still light the lamp? After a moment of silence, I didn't see any movement on the top, and I was a little relieved. But everyone didn't even dare to breathe too hard, and there were many times more moths here than there were just enough moths to attack us, and it would be a terrible thing to really alarm them.

Gu Xi was the calmest of all the people, and after he glanced up and glanced at me, he dragged me forward, but his feet were also lighter. I knew he had the ability to wear military boots and keep his walking quiet when necessary, and I secretly kept the soles of his shoes from rubbing against the ground.

The atmosphere was no longer tense to describe it, but it was fearful, and the ears were on full alert. I secretly thought that the lancet was still in Guxi, and if it really started, there would be no weapons to use.

But until we reached another stone door, the moths on the top did not come to attack us. The stone door was ajar, much grander than the one that came in from the outside, carved with some dragon carvings.

Glancing at Gu Xi listening to the movements inside, I didn't dare to come out, for fear of disturbing him.

Behind him, Qin Zhou and everyone also arrived at the moment, seeing that we were standing in front of the stone gate but not entering, but no one urged us, and they were all waiting patiently. After a while, Gu Xi dropped a sentence: "You stay here first." ”

This was not only said to them, but also to me, and he let go of my hand and foot into the half-open door.

This decision must have been made because he felt that the situation was different when he listened carefully to the movement just now, but it was too big for him to go in alone. I was uneasy in my heart, and my ears didn't dare to have the slightest slackness to listen carefully, but it was a pity that I had a pair of eyes that were different from ordinary people, but my ears were very bad.

It may be that God has given you a gift, and it will inevitably deprive you of one. Of course, it is not to the point of being deaf, and normal sounds can be heard, but even when listening, it is difficult to concentrate and make accurate judgments.

A brief moment of distraction can be fatal, and by the time I perceive the wind coming overhead, it's too late to make any evasive moves. The heart sank, and the secret path was not good! However, in the next second, my body was knocked out from behind, directly knocking the stone door open and falling to the ground, which was just the ferocious blow.

The body was slightly heavy, it was someone who was pressing on me, and when I looked back, I saw He Zhixu with pain on his face.

The sudden change came so suddenly that I didn't even know what was happening, when I saw his eyes, which were still clear, gradually close, and the whole person unloaded the support and pressed all the weight on my back.

was suppressed and couldn't see behind him, but he could hear Qin Zhou shouting urgently: "Come in, block them with a stone door!" ”

The rest of the chaos came and went: "A few flew in." "Kill it!" "Know, how are you?"

Finally, Xiao You pounced on He Zhixu, who was dragging on my back, and I took the opportunity to roll him down and get up from under him, just when I saw Gu Xi rush out when he heard the sound. He glanced at me and asked in a cold voice, "What's wrong?" ”

Qin Zhou immediately replied: "There is an oversized moth that suddenly swept down from above his head to attack Chang Xiaoyuan who was standing at the door, and I was too late to rescue him because I was standing behind me from a person." The surnamed He was not afraid of death, so he pounced on it like this, and blocked that blow for Chang Xiaoyuan, he should have been bitten. ”

Gu Xi asked again in a cold voice: "What did you touch?" ”

Qin Zhou shook his head blankly: "No, you let us wait there, and no one went in." ”

But I heard Xiaoyou suddenly whisper: "I saw that the dragon eye on the stone gate is very special, so I couldn't help but touch the ......" When Gu Xi's cold eyes swept towards her, she shrank and didn't dare to say anything more.

Hearing this, he roughly understood what was going on, and lowered his eyes to look at He Zhixu, who was lying unconscious on the ground, only to see that his face turned black in an instant. The bite on the arm just now made them cut and squeeze out the poisonous juice, what should they do now? Is it possible to scratch all the faces to repel the poison?

"Can you find a way to save him?" I ask for Gu Xi.

He stared at me darkly, his eyes dangerous.

I don't understand this, I can only go to see Gu Xi, knowing that opening this mouth will make him angry, but there is no way to see death without saving it, especially how to know that Xu blocked that blow for me in order to save me.

But he said coldly: "If you can't save it, he will definitely die." ”

His heart sank, and Xiao You exclaimed in disbelief: "Impossible, we were also bitten by moths just now, just squeeze out the poisonous juice." I saw that the thing hit him behind his ear, as long as it was concocted according to the law, I could save him? ”

But Gu Xi tugged at the corners of his mouth, and there was endless irony in his eyes: "Is the poisonous performance of ordinary moths compared to that of the moth king?" ”

One sentence made everyone's faces change, Moth King!

Even Qin Zhou asked fearfully, "Ah Xi, why is there still a Moth King?" ”

"Moths are mostly unconscious animals, and in addition to being sensitive to fire, they can also receive signals from their companions. With so many moths gathered here and attacking people, how can they become murderous weapons without the king's order? ”

When Gu Xi said coldly, I took a step closer and reached out to pull his hand, my eyes showing pleading.

The black eyes stared at me for a long time, during which I was like an ant on a hot pan and was very tormented, and I heard him say coldly: "Xiao Yuan, you really know how to provoke me." You came to beg me for him? Okay, so let's talk about the conditions, what are you willing to exchange for? ”

Now I am really in trouble, according to the perverse temperament that he has seen more and more at this moment, it is really angry, if I promise something important, it will not add fuel to the fire, but if I casually say an estimate, it will not be possible to coax him.

I was blocked by his words, and I couldn't answer for a while.

But at this moment, a shallow voice came intermittently: "Alice, don't ask for it, I'm fine." ”
