If he is afraid that the next shadow is unbearable, then I will help him uncover it.

But just as I ran more than ten meters away, I heard a sharp shout behind me one after another: "Xiao Jiu, come back." "But it's too late......

At the same time, I saw that the black shadow that I thought was dead and lifeless like He Jianguo last time moved, and it was flying towards me, and when the white light flashed, I realized that it was the face of the blade. Instinctively dodged to the side, but it was too late, the neck went from stinging to feeling blood oozing out in a flash, and the body fell back uncontrollably, only to see a pair of fierce eyes with murderous aura in the darkness.

The white blade fell from a high place again, and when I lifted my foot, my heart sank to the bottom, and I couldn't speed the other party, so I could only watch the sharp knife stab at the front door. But at that moment, a black shadow flew like a cheetah, and at the same time I heard a thud.

After a second, it was only after a second that I reacted and pounced on it one after another, and the bang was the sound of gunshots! From behind. That angle, that timing...... I almost crawled to that place, and my heart trembled as I looked at the undulating black shadow.

I'm going to die one after another! As this thought slowly surfaced in my heart, despair came up from the soles of my feet. He had crashed into me to save me, and he had lost his senses, not aware that there was another person watching in the shadows.

opened his mouth and wanted to call his name, but his mouth choked, and all kinds of sorrow came to him, and his eyes instantly became hot. Just as the tears were about to roll out, a muffled snort penetrated into the eardrum in the silence, and the heart trembled, which ......

"Xiao Jiu, pull me." With the rise and fall of a low voice with a wheezing voice, the black shadow that was still moved moved, and my knees hit the ground as soon as my legs were bent, and I didn't care about the pain, so I reached out and grabbed it, and after catching the entity, I heard my own trembling voice asking: "Successively?" ”

After snorting, I heard one after another helpless: "Xiao Jiu, don't pinch my thigh, it hurts." ”

I withdrew my hand in a panic and stared at it, because I had been suddenly attacked, and the ball I was holding rolled next to it, so that the light here was extremely weak. After determining the position of his figure, he reached over again, this time grabbing his arm.

I tried to help him stand up, but his legs trembled so badly that he could only drag the person aside. As soon as his shoulders tightened, people were wrapped around him one after another and pressed against his chest, and he was heard to say softly above his head: "Don't be afraid, I'm fine." ”

"I'm not afraid." retorted weakly, but he said, "Xiao Jiu, don't be reckless, your body has been trembling." ”

At that moment, I don't know what mood I was in, tears rolled down my cheeks, and they flowed silently down my cheeks. When he noticed it, he didn't say any more comforting words, just pressed my face against his chest and let my tears flow into his clothes.

When I calmed down, I understood why I was in a complicated mood, it was panic accompanied by the catharsis of despair. And one after another he understood me.

Only then did I follow the dim light to look at the lying figure a meter away, and asked softly, "Is he dead?" He replied one after another: "Well, one shot kills, right in the eyebrows." Slightly stunned, this answer seemed strange, "Isn't it manslaughter?" ”

He rubbed my hair, "How could it be manslaughter?" Have you ever seen a manslaughter that can shoot so accurately? It was really dangerous just now, the bullet was fired into his eyebrows a split second before I pounced, and if it was my usual skill, I might have just caught up. But my normal level should have been able to avoid this shot. ”

Listening to his tone so relaxed, it was as if it was someone else who was dying and dying just now, but I was afraid. Just the thought that if the person who fired the shot was a second too late, or an inch out of direction, the bullet would hit him, and I felt an uncontrollable chill in my heart.

He took a few deep breaths, and waited until his mind calmed down before he asked, "Is he Yan Jiu's person?" "The people in this ancient cave, except for Yan Jiuyi's gang who have not been photographed, I know the rest of the people. And the one who just died, his eyes were gloomy, his whole body was full of a strong murderous aura, and a hideous scar stretched across half of his face, making him look more and more ferocious.

He replied in a deep voice: "He is Yan Jiu's personal bodyguard, this person should be extremely ruthless, if it weren't for the fact that his feet were sealed by rock mud, that bullet would have been avoided." Hearing him say this, I turned my eyes to the man's feet, and sure enough, I saw that the rock mud was not up to his knees, so it was no wonder that he took off and pounced on me in the same place, and there was a distance of nearly three meters at that time.

I thought of something else and asked, "Who is the man who shot him?" After a deep groan, he said: "As far as I know, Brother Liang's marksmanship is very good, but his police gun is still with me." However, the appearance of this person here means that Yan Jiu and the others have also come down, He Jianguo died on the road before, there is no doubt that Brother Liang also arrived here, it is likely that he got their guns. ”

According to common sense, if Brother Liang was hiding nearby, with his own identity and the relationship with me, he would have shot when he saw the other party stabbing me with a deadly knife.

But there was silence all around at the moment, and it was obvious that the man was no longer there, so why didn't he come to join us? Successively, he obviously thought of this, and said without speculation: "Perhaps, since the moment the truth is revealed, it will be difficult for me and him to face it again." In addition, his father died like that, and with his character, it was impossible not to track down his father's murderer. ”

I paused, "You mean He Jianguo wasn't strangled by the rock mud?" ”

"The devouring power of the rock mud is certainly terrifying, but He Jianguo's frightened expression before he died was more like seeing something unbearable, maybe because of this, he didn't have time to escape and was sealed by the rock mud until he invaded his throat and died. The mud in this layer, apparently different from what we had encountered before, became disorganized and irregular, like a pool of loose sand running around, and I guess it was probably caused by the hedron that controlled the terminal falling to the bottom of the pool. ”

Indeed, the He Jianguo we saw was not up to his neck, but this person was only frozen to his knees. There was a faint feeling that all the people in the ancient cave had reached this level of space, either alive or dead, and they were more willing to believe that they had reached the ninth layer where there were nine layers in the cave.

Staying where you are and facing a dead man is inconclusive, and the smell of blood is uncomfortable. When he regained his strength on his feet, he got up one after another, and he told me to wait a moment, and walked over and bent down to pick up the sharp knife that had fallen to the ground, to be precise, it was not a knife, because there was no handle, and the whole body was full of blades, and the head was extremely sharp.

Running his fingers over and looking at me, "Are you hurt?" "At this time, I remembered that my neck was scratched before, and I raised my hand to touch it, and found that the blood had coagulated.

He walked up quickly, his eyes falling on my neck, but finally grabbed my hand and walked forward without saying a word. I could feel that he was angry from the strength of my hand, so I pursed my lower lip and took the initiative to speak: "I was too reckless just now, I shouldn't have run over on my own." ”

"I don't blame you." He said with a little annoyance, "It's because my sensitivity is low and I didn't protect you well." It's all hurt right under your nose, and you're almost ...... If it weren't for Brother Liang's shot, maybe even if I hit it in time, his knife would have stabbed you. ”

Only then did I understand that he was angry with himself. I held his elbow tightly and leaned closer to him, "Successively, promise me one thing." He asked softly, "What's the matter?" Word by word, I said, "Leave your life to me." ”

There was silence, only the breaths of each other staggered in the vicinity, and after a while, he spoke softly. I lowered my head and took his big hand, and did a very childish thing, and the little fingers of the two were hooked together, and the thumbs were pressed heavily on them. Doing this, he knew clearly in his heart that his promise was only in the moment, and when danger came, he would still make the same judgment and reaction. I asked him this just because I wanted him to be able to give himself some leeway when that moment came.

The two of them did not walk fast, and they were on full alert, ready to prevent accidents from happening in the next moment. But the accident didn't happen, but we met a "ghost"!

When I saw a dark shadow standing in front of me for the third time, my mind became very calm, and after two changes, I thought that no matter whether that person was alive or dead, it would no longer alarm my emotions. The steps of the two of them were only slightly slower, but they did not stop, but as they gradually approached, I and I stopped at the same time. Staring at the black shadow, from top to bottom, from silhouette to height to body shape, he asked uncertainly: "Is it like him?" He replied one after another: "It's not like it, it's him." ”

The two of them walked quickly to the shadow and saw the face they had seen more than two hours ago, the only difference was that we had seen him with his eyes open for the first time, and now they were closed. Unexpectedly, I went around in a circle and returned to the place where He Jianguo died.

asked one after another: "Xiao Jiu, can you figure out what's going on?" I groaned for a moment and gave the answer: "The ghost hits the wall." ”

"Have you met before? Do you know how it works? His tone didn't look like a puzzle, but rather a calm that tested me.

Ghost hitting the wall is actually a kind of poor vision, the human eye can not correct the direction because of the darkness, so it can only rely on the ground or nearby markers to identify the direction, when the markers cause an illusion, it also gives the human eye wrong information, thus deviating from the correct way.

Due to the breadth of the cave, we almost always walk on the left side, and the stone wall on the left side is a landmark. It looks like a straight line, but in fact, it has turned around somewhere without knowing it, so it has come around back.

After listening to my analysis, he didn't say anything, but his eyes swept around sharply, and when I was about to lose my breath, I heard him speak: "Have you seen fluorescent engraving again?" ”

I was stunned, the fluorescent engraving was so obvious, if I turned around, I would never miss it.
