Volume 02 Nightmare Chapter 177 Change of Life
The poisonous snake was slow and slow, but this pounce was like thunder and lightning, and it didn't give me time to react at all.
I had to instinctively lean back as I slashed up with my right hand and slashed at the long and thick snake with the dagger in my hand.
I knew that even if I slashed the snake, it would only be an insignificant wound on it, and it would not stop it from attacking my face, it was just an instinctive reaction in my desperate situation.
I thought I had no chance of running for my life, and I waited for the sharp fangs of the viper to bite my chest and even my throat.
But none of this happened, and in that moment of lightning, the tribesman suddenly jumped up from the ground, and with one arm swept horizontally, sweeping towards the serpent's huge head.
The snake was so flexible that when it was not allowed to happen, its triangular giant actually retreated and advanced, and its wide open mouth bit the arms of the people like lightning.
The man was bitten by a poisonous snake on his left arm, but his right hand drew his machete, and I saw with my own eyes that the light flashed, and the poisonous snake was cut in two pieces with a machete.
A huge snake body rolled on the ground, and the head of the snake was still tightly bitten on the arms of the tribesmen, and the part of the snake body left on the snake's head was no more than a foot.
There was a "thud", and the tribesmen fell to the ground. The snake was so poisonous that in the blink of an eye, the tribesmen convulsed on the ground, and at the same time their eyes turned up and their mouths foamed.
I didn't expect that this tribesman would sacrifice himself to save me at such a critical moment, and after being stunned for a while, I immediately wanted to possess and inspect the tribesmen, but Zhang Xiaoyun's voice entered my mind in a panic and urgency.
"Be careful, the viper is not dead yet!"
I was startled, and then I looked at the half of the snake's head, which was still biting the arms of the tribesmen, and its body, which was less than a foot long, was still swaying and twisting, as if it was still injecting venom into the tribesmen's bodies.
I was furious, and with the dagger in my hand, I slashed off the viper's head.
In this way, the head of the snake with its inverted teeth immediately detached from the arms of the people, and only one head remained, and it was not completely dead, but a pair of green eyes glared at me with evil eyes, and its fangs protruded, as if it wanted to bite me.
I knew that it was affected by the relief, so my brain activity had not stopped, and I hated it for biting the people to death, so I couldn't help but swing the dagger and chop a snake's head to pieces.
Later, I went to check on the people, but I saw that his face was gray, and although his eyes were still open, he no longer had any light.
I was half-crouched beside my people, and I really couldn't understand why this tribesman would sacrifice his life to save me.
Until Gao Lingkai asked me tremblingly: "Gao Li, this people ...... Saved us? β
All of a sudden, a thought popped into my mind.
I turned my face to look at Zhang Xiaoyun, who was still fluttering and clinging to the cave wall, and felt that her beautiful eyes met my eyes, and I hurriedly lowered my eyelashes.
"It's you...... Let this people save me? I asked.
She hesitated for a moment before answering.
"Don't blame me for being ruthless, I can't watch you die! Even if...... Everyone in the world is dead, and I can't let you die! β
I don't know how to respond.
She's a ghost, but she's so much in love with me.
Of course, I can't approve of her exchanging the lives of her people for my life, but how can I, because she saved me, blame her for being ruthless?
On the contrary, looking at the corpses of the people on the ground, I feel guilty, but I am also happy.
I feel guilty that the people died for me, and I am glad that I am alive and well.
Human nature is selfish, and at this moment, I can't help but admit it.
"How can I blame you for being ruthless, you are all for me!" I said, smiling at her reluctantly. That little bit of guilt and guilt was gradually masked by stronger gratitude and rejoicing.
Gao Lingkai couldn't hear Zhang Xiaoyun's words, but he was also a smart person, and from his eyes, I knew that he also understood the truth of the matter.
However, he glanced at Zhang Xiaoyun and wisely didn't say anything else, only asked me, "What should we do with his corpse?" Without him, we'd both be dead, and we can't leave him here, right? β
He was really afraid of snakes, and it was clear that the two parts of the snake's body were already lying on the ground and not moving, so he could still stand with his hands on the cave wall.
"I can only leave him here!" Zhang Xiaoyun answered Gao Lingkai's question before me, "Although this cave can lead to the outside, there is a section that can only be climbed over, and there is no way to take him out with him." β
I was speechless, thinking that no matter what, my people were dying because of me, and that it would make me even more uneasy if I left his body here.
"Anyway, now that the wild man is not in the cave, can you stimulate the potential of me and Gao Li, and let us jump up from here?" Wouldn't it be possible to hang the corpses of the people from above? Gao Lingkai was whimsical.
"Impossible!" Zhang Xiaoyun shook his head with a wry smile, "There is always a limit to human potential, no matter how I stimulate it, I can only make you jump three to four meters at most, but this cave is at least six meters above it, how can you jump out?" β
Although Zhang Xiaoyun was talking to Gao Lingkai about these words, she consciously let me hear them.
I knew this was not the time for sentimentality, so I gritted my teeth and stood up.
"Then let's go, continue to be trapped here, if anything dangerous happens, we won't even have room to fight back!" As I spoke, I turned my face to ask Gao Lingkai, "Can you walk?" β
"It's still a little weak, but it's good to stay away from this thing!" He said, although his face was full of embarrassment, he still turned his eyes to ask Zhang Xiaoyun, "There won't be snakes and insects in there, right?" β
"No, it's just that there's standing water at the end, but it's not too deep, just be careful!" Zhang Xiaoyun replied.
"Then I'll go ahead!"
Gao Lingkai seemed to want to stay away from the corpse of the poisonous snake as soon as possible, and he was barely standing on the wall of the cave, but this time he mustered up the courage to snatch the flashlight from my hand, bent down, and took the lead in burrowing into the hole.
I looked back at Zhang Xiaoyun's figure, for fear that she would still worry that I would blame her for being ruthless, so I tried to say as gently as possible: "You follow me!" β
Zhang Xiaoyun naturally heard my gentleness, her face showed joy, nodded at me, and suddenly disappeared.
I followed behind Gao Lingkai, and I didn't dare to have too many thoughts in my heart. Because Zhang Xiaoyun can easily feel the thoughts in my heart, if I have too much guilt and guilt for that people, it will also make Zhang Xiaoyun feel uneasy.
I don't dare to think about Zhang Xiaoyun's deep friendship for me, she is a ghost, and I am a human, if she is allowed to fall deeper and deeper, how will it end up when the time comes?
I believe that she is kind, but a kind woman will be jealous and hateful because of love.
She is a ghost, but she is also a woman.
