Chapter 30 Gambling Buns and Spicy Strips
"Yes, and when we passed through the cracks in the overturned walls, we saw a very wide corridor, but he insisted on not letting me go, and instead chose a small alley next to the corridor that could only be passed sideways. This small alley is very suffocating, oxygen is insufficient, and it is very long and narrow, the first half is fine, after walking a distance, I began to lack breath, I can't stand it for a long time, so I asked him not to go, hurry back and walk the road, otherwise I am afraid I will not last five minutes. But then he turned back to me and said, "There are three minutes left at most, let me hold on a little longer." At first, I thought he was just trying to comfort me and keep me going, but three minutes later, we actually got out of that narrow gap. ”
"In other words, he is familiar enough with the route to estimate the travel time." I couldn't help frowning, if Mo Ranchen really knew everything about this place, then he could tell us if this place was related to our destination, and if it wasn't, he could take all of us out as soon as possible, without wasting time here. But why didn't he do it? Why do we have to go with the flow?
Kong Xian nodded, and said, "After penetrating through that gap, we arrived at this place. I have to say, he really cares about you. Speaking of this, his tone lowered again, "From beginning to end, except for the one I took the initiative to ask, he only took the initiative to say three words to me: I don't know if there is anything wrong with Mu You." We hurriedly found a way to find Muyu. There is a possibility that Mu You will be trapped on the stairs outside, which is not suitable for me to go, only you can help her. ”
"Can we put our personal feelings aside?" I covered my forehead and said helplessly, "What should I do if I get married in the future?" You're not going to come to my wedding with a machete, are you? ”
He snorted and said in an unkind tone: "That's not it, I don't care who you like to follow." I won't go to the wedding at that time, I just need to burn the money with you. ”
"Oh my God...... Can you be a little more brutal? You wouldn't be Qin Shi Huang in your life, this self-respecting momentum is really quite his old man's style. After sighing, I pointed my finger at him and said, "But I can tell you, if my sister can't get married, you won't want to live in peace for the rest of your life." ”
"I haven't had a peaceful life for the first half of my life. The rest of my life...... I'm really used to it. ”
Seeing that he was so helpless, I looked at him with a smile, "Yo, that's so pitiful." I think you're a masochistic addict, and if you don't be bullied by me, you're not happy. ”
Seeing that he was going to glare at me, I quickly retracted the topic and asked, "Eh, how do you and Mo Yanchen know where I am?" ”
"Don't look at the stairs you've climbed for so long, in fact, the tomb you went to before is side by side with the space we are in." As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the right of me, "The burial chamber you went to should be on the opposite side of that." When we first came in, I accidentally bumped into a stone platform in the corner, and the stone monkey hit the wall. Unexpectedly, there would be a sound of knocking on the wall from the opposite side. ”
As he spoke, I followed his hand to the stone platform. The shape of the stone platform is somewhat like a modern sink, but it is not fixed, and a stone monkey is placed in the groove, and the peach in both hands is quite aura.
Presumably, the stone monkey was unstable, and Kong Xian's touch made it shake and crash into the wall. It turned out that it was really these two people who knocked on the wall with us at that time.
"It's really a ghost." I couldn't help but sigh in confusion, "Our two rooms exist side by side, how can there be stairs outside?" And we have climbed the stairs for so long, not only are we trapped and can't get out, but we finally come out only to find that we are still on the same plane, how can I accept this? Oh yes, why did Mo Zhanchen say before that he wasn't suitable to go to the outside stairs? ”
Speaking of this, Kong Xian's brows furrowed deeply, and he half-thought-half-narrated: "Mo Ranchen only said at that time that those things outside would be attracted by sound and light. Even he couldn't find someone quietly in complete darkness. It's just that I don't understand when he knew that my eyes could see in the dark. ”
"What's so I don't understand about this." I put one hand on his shoulder, "There have been many times when you have appeared in front of us without lighting the lamp, and a fool can't see it." ”
After speaking, I suddenly remembered that I had separated Liu Yang on the stairs, and asked Kong Xian again: "Then you asked him to go out to find Liu Yang just now, why did he go obediently?" ”
"Because before I went out to look for you, Mo Yanchen said that no matter who I find on the top of the stairs, bring it back first, and if you can't find it, don't care. Because the man who disappeared on the stairs must have gone to another place, and it would be good to hand it over to him when the time came. After Kong Xian finished speaking, he took a pot of water from his bag and handed it to me.
I took it and poured it a few times, it was really comfortable, and after two breaths, my eyes were once again drawn to the cold bed. He put the kettle in his hand aside, got up and walked to the ice bed against the cold, and gently stroked it with his hand.
I found out that the temperature on the surface of the ice bed is not low, and the real temperature is the lower part. The bottom half is a large block of ice, and it is amazing how it can be preserved for so long in this warm plain area, with no signs of melting, and even the flowers carved on it look as if they had just been completed.
In a curious mind, I learned Mo Ranchen and slowly lay down. Kong Xian came over and looked at me with some amusement, and teased: "I'll bet you won't lie down for a minute with a pack of spicy noodles." ”
I felt that although the cold was very heavy, it was only about the same as the room temperature, and it shouldn't be a problem to lie down for more than ten minutes, so I smiled and hugged my fists and said: "If you want to gamble, you have to admit defeat, I want a pack of three pieces, preferably Weilong, if you can match it with a cup of old yogurt, it will be better." ”
Kong Xian smiled and narrowed his eyes, looking like an old fox, pointed to the watch in his hand, and said, "There are forty seconds left, persistence is victory." ”
Oh, I said in my heart: You really underestimate me, although I am afraid of the cold, but I am born to be able to carry it, and I am afraid of a fart in forty seconds.
I was feeling proud, I suddenly felt that something was wrong, the coolness behind me was at first on the surface, but now it gradually penetrated into my body, although there was not much discomfort yet, but this change made me feel uneasy.
Kong Xianxu saw the change in my expression, raised his hand and looked at his watch again, looked at me playfully and said, "There are still twenty seconds left, I want to refill, how about adding a can of good Longjing?" ”
Although I tried my best to keep my face expressionless, I couldn't ignore the chill that gradually penetrated into my bones. I thought I could still bear it, so I gritted my teeth and took a deep breath, "Bet!" I'll add you another box of Wang Laoji! ”
After saying that, I suddenly regretted it, I only felt that this cold could no longer be suppressed, and my body trembled uncontrollably. This is no lower than the extremely low temperature I felt before, it is the cold transmitted through the medium of the air, and this ice bed is stuck to my back, and the cold is drilling into my bones. But the top of the bed seemed to suck me on, and I couldn't move.
When there were ten seconds left, Kong Xian tapped his watch with his hand again, and said with a look of victory on his face: "Don't be too strong, you can't hold on,"
Whether he stabbed me or not, I couldn't hold it anymore at the moment, my whole brain hurt, my body was already injured, and if I froze like this, I even suspected that after a minute I would become a corpse in the morgue. We can't afford to lose our lives for a gambling contract. As the so-called big husband can bend and stretch, I, as a sister paper, a little flexible, that's a matter of course, shouldn't I shrink when I should shrink?
After a long breath, I was about to get up, when I suddenly felt a dark shadow in front of me, and then someone pressed my shoulder and crushed me back with skillful force. I took a closer look, and it turned out to be Mo Ranchen who came back with Liu Yang.
He gently pressed me back into the ice bed and told me to close my eyes. Kong Xian's face next to him was not very good-looking, but he didn't say anything.
"Slow down your breathing a little." Mo Yanchen said and reached out to probe the tip of my nose, feeling my breathing slow down, and said in a very slow tone: "Put aside the distractions in your mind and imagine that you are lying on a rock in the desert." Dry wind and sand sweep through the heat, blowing past you. The rocks beneath you are hot, hotter than the sun above you. But gradually, you feel comfortable, like lying in a baby's incubator......"
Mo Ranchen's voice was very low, and it was originally a tone without temperature, but it made me involuntarily follow his language to imagine and experience. Gradually, I really felt that my body had changed, as if the cold around me had gradually disappeared, and everything had become soft and beautiful from winter to spring.
Before I knew it, a wave of sleepiness hit me, and my mind began to drift, and my body seemed to be lying in a piece of cotton, extremely comfortable. Half-asleep and half-awake, I heard Kong Xian questioning Mo Ranchen with some concern. Asked him if I would have a negative impact on my body if I had been lying on this cold bed for a long time, and Mo Ranchen just replied lightly. Hearing him say no, my brain relaxed completely, and I gradually fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up again, I was still lying on the cold ice bed, and the feeling of wakefulness and coldness appeared at the same time, and I quickly rolled over and jumped off the ice bed.
In this jump, I suddenly found that the whole person was relaxed, and the injuries caused by falling from such a high place seemed to have disappeared in an instant. The whole spirit and complexion seemed to be much better, an indescribable joy.
Liu Yang had already curled up under the wall and fell asleep, with a thin blanket on his body, shivering from the cold. Kong Xian and Mo Ranchen sat on the side, not knowing what they were planning, I leaned over and asked Mo Ranchen what was going on with this cold ice bed? Why didn't you freeze me to death, and it still has such a miraculous effect?
However, Mo Ranchen didn't say anything, just said that this was taught to him by his master, and he didn't understand the principle.
Shocked and amazed, I didn't forget the previous bet with Kong Xian, and seeing that he didn't say a word, he must have lost and had to pay for it.
