I'm glad I had night vision goggles on instead of a flashlight in my hand, so I could still see underneath it. The space is not large, only about two square meters, but the depth is staggering, which from top to bottom, must be at least twenty or thirty meters deep. Turning around, I found that it didn't seem to be surrounded by rocks or mud, and I was about to reach out and touch it, but I looked down and saw the shape of the madman, and I almost didn't jump up.

A face is pitch black, with all kinds of grass and leaves stuck in his head, his eyes are shining, and he only sees a mouthful of white teeth in his mouth, which is particularly penetrating. I was a little choked and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

He rolled his eyes at me and said in a strange voice, "Why are you still asking me why I'm here?" Don't you know that I was just smashed down from above? ”

Belch...... I've thought of this, and the sound of "don't light the fire" sounds familiar, and it should come from him. Was he on top of the pit or was he hiding on the sidelines? I was thinking about it, and I heard him muttering there: "Is it easy for me to climb to the top, I can get out in one step, why is it so hard, I was kicked down by Xiaoliu in front, and now I am pressed down by Xiaoliu." ”

A black line appeared on my forehead, but I picked up the message from his muttering words. He said he had climbed up, and that he was already under here, so I cleared my throat and asked, "How did you get down?" ”

The madman glanced at me, tilted his head and said, "What else?" Just like you. Just when he was annoyed that I threw him down again, so I didn't care about his depressed tone, looked up at it and asked, "You were also pulled down by the vines?" How can there be such a deep pothole? Have you looked around to see if there are any other exits? ”

I touched it while talking, and when my hand touched it, I was stunned, and I heard the madman say, "This is not a hole, it's a hole in a tree, we are in the heart of a tree." "I also realized that the tentacles were wooden, and I was even more surprised, how could there be such a thick tree? Could it be that this is the chassis of the piranha? When he heard this, the madman said, "It's not a man-eating flower, it's a cypress, similar to a man-trapping vine, but it's a tree." This tree is estimated to be a thousand-year-old tree, and the center of the tree grows up to the top, and the inside is hollow, and the tentacles are its stems. ”

This is the first time I've confronted a madman, even if he's a little cautious now. I remember when Xu Jiu recommended the madman, saying that he was freelance and had special skills, I just thought it was a joke at the time, and then it suddenly dawned on me, it turned out that these people were unusual, including this crazy person who was called a madman. I haven't heard of the "Dian Bai" in his mouth, and on it, it is obvious that Luo Jinghan also mistook it for a cannibal flower, Gao Cheng didn't speak, and I don't know if he saw the difference.

The point is...... "So what's so lethal about this tree?" Top or this? ”

The madman pointed to it, "It's all hollow here, and all the nutrients have gathered to the top." ”

That's okay, at least the road in Gaocheng is not wrong, otherwise I dare not imagine the consequences. Thinking of something, he asked, "Were you the one who shouted not to light the fire just now?" Why did just a little spark burst out with such a big tongue of fire? ”

"Didn't I just tell you?"

I was stunned, "What did you say?" In his mind, he didn't remember that he had just mentioned about fire.

The madman sighed and said, "Didn't I say the same as you?" Pointing upwards and downwards again. I really feel powerless, it is difficult to communicate with him, and Xu Jiu is not there one after another, if they want to, it is estimated that they can immediately "understand" the meaning of the madman. I could only look up and follow his "not much" prompt and follow it little by little, and suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in my mind, and I seemed to understand the meaning of the madman.

By "the same", he meant the same process and steps as when I fell from the top to the bottom, which means that he first went to the mouth of the cave and found this cypress that resembled a man-eating flower, and then tried to set it on fire, but was finally dragged into the hole by the extended tentacles. Then he climbed up from the bottom of here, and when he reached the top, he met me...... Knocked him down again.

Well, when I think about it, I'm a little weak-minded. Hurriedly changed the subject: "How can you be sure that this tree is from Dianbai?" Did you also want to attack with fire at first? The madman suddenly quenched himself on the ground: "I don't recognize this thing?" Your third grandfather almost planted it in its hands at the beginning, and when you extinguish it, you can use fire, who knows that there is flammable gas in the air in this hellish place, and it almost burned my hairstyle. ”

"......" I was speechless, I couldn't bear to look directly at his so-called hairstyle.

The madman finally realized his gaffe, and explained as if embarrassed: "Little box, I was just indignant for a moment, and I didn't mean anything else." I nodded: "Well, a moment of indignation, third grandfather." ”

The madman's black face froze, and his expression was like crying. I thought it was funny, but I was also surprised that he had seen this plant with his own eyes, and he knew that fire could extinguish it. But what about flammable gas in the air? But thinking about the scene just now, it is indeed somewhat similar, otherwise how can a little spark ignite the vine.

There is no point in pursuing these things, since the madman was able to climb up just now, we can also climb up again. The question was what to do with the dense layers of vines on top, and we had to find a way to get out, because it was clear that the air was thinning.

I poked the madman in the arm, "Eh, was the top covered when you came down in front?" ”

"It's covered."

"And how did you get it open?"

He looked at me, "Aren't you there to attract me, if I hadn't howled at the time, I would have gone out." Can...... But who made you my little box, I can't watch you go astray. ”

The corners of my mouth twitched twice, I retracted my hand, and after thinking about it, I decided to speak: "Crazy, didn't you discuss whether to call me Xiao Xia before?" He replied: "Based on the relationship between the two of us, I still think that the little box should be more intimate, just like Xiao Liu and Xiao Jiu, what a kind name." ”

I frowned, and said, "You saw it before that, and I ...... with you Ahem, it's not appropriate. ”

"What's wrong? It's a good fit. ”

I feel like I'm talking to a duck or a duck. Said weakly: "Let's find a way to get this thing off my waist first." "I've been being bound by that tentacle, and my chest is a little stuffy. The madman's eyes lit up after looking down, "Say it earlier, it's simple, it depends on your third brother's ability." "It's hard for me to control the corners of my eyes or the corners of my mouth without twitching, when did he become the third brother again?

But he didn't brag, but he took it out of his pocket, and I didn't know what he took out, and when he threw it on my waist, the tentacles immediately shrank away, and my waist was wide. I couldn't help but ask, "What did you spill?" ”

The answer was surprising: "Salt." ”

After a pause, the madman laughed, leaned over and whispered: "Don't underestimate my salt, it's not an ordinary broken promise, it's the mountain salt I collected from running into the mountains again and again, and it's very effective against some carnivorous plants." When you go out, I'll hide a little bit for you, good things. ”

I glanced at the not-so-white salt powder in his hand and said yes lightly. I can probably understand why the madman rolled down with Wei Dong, who was put in the cage and drugged, while he was still alive and kicking outside. The reason is that he is not simple, he said that he has run to the mountains one by one, the purpose I don't know, but I know that such a person will not live today without some experience and ability, in addition, his brain is very alive.

And after a while, I once again saw the special skills of madmen. Without the restraints around my waist, I stretched my arms and feet and stood up, and said to the madman, "Climb again." ”

With a bitter face, he said to me, "Don't hold me back this time." "I said that I followed under you, and if I wanted to press, I was smashed to the end by you. He thought for a moment before nodding.

A minute later, I looked up in amazement at the figure that had reached several meters high, it was the first time I had seen a person climb so fast. The madman didn't know my mood, and shouted from above: "Come up, little box, I'll wait for you." ”

It took me a lot of effort to get under him, gasping for breath and asking, "How did you climb so fast?" ”

He asked curiously, "Is it fast?" I've slowed down and waited for you. Compared with the wild monkeys in the mountains and forests, this speed must have been caught and torn. Forget it, you come up with the little box, and I'll take you to climb. ”

When I climbed up to his side, I saw him stretch out his black paws, and I hesitated and put one of my hands on it. The madman's hands are not as slender as those of Takashiro, and the palms are rough and calloused. Although he often talked about what he meant to me, I never thought he really thought anything of me. At most, they recognized me and had a good impression.

Pulling away distractions, I climbed more than twice as fast as the madman. But even so, the height of thirty meters is not so easy to climb, if the madman is only alone, he should have reached the top, but he brought me this drag oil bottle. He was also so tired that he couldn't do it, panting like a cow, and shouting: "No, no, no strength." ”

Before climbing again, he stuffed a bag of stuff and "put it in his pocket." When you get to the top, if there are tentacles to roll up again, sprinkle it with salt, third brother, I have to rest, you go first. "I honestly and unceremoniously took it and stuffed it into my pocket, when it suddenly felt that something was wrong, just when the madman said that he had climbed to the top alone, and that he had climbed so fast at first, it was not reasonable that he would not have reached such a loss of strength.

Bad thoughts flashed in my heart, from top to bottom for nearly thirty meters, I was dragged down because of tentacles, but the madman didn't, he almost fell straight down, and finally I was crushed under him...... I gasped and asked in a very soft voice, "Madman, are you hurt?" The madman shook his head and replied, "Who said that?" What kind of injuries did you suffer? Your third brother and I are amazing. Okay, okay, isn't it just for you to climb alone, this distance is lazy, come on, keep up. ”<
