Chapter 31: Survival in the Rat Hole
Below, the blackened rat was still eating the corpses of the surrounding prisoners and the nearby pits.
Disturbed by these falling liquids, they don't seem to react, but if there are two big living people who fall, it will be different, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for a few minutes in a row, and we can be gnawed clean by this group of beasts.
They eat very fast, as if they can't fill up, and their fat bodies keep going deeper and deeper.
I shook my head and shook it off, taking a risk, but slowly approaching, only to feel the frequency of the pillar beating more and more, and I knew it was because the rope was getting tighter and tighter.
Finally, I grabbed the rope, and then slowly added force, so that the strangulation marks gradually disappeared, and the force on the rope was relieved.
Seeing that it was safe for the time being, I had time to look down, only to realize that there was another person beside Liu Ran.
No, I'm afraid it's not a person, but a dark shadow.
This time, I feel that the shadow is very clear, and it is more recognizable than the last time.
I remember that I found out about it before, but I forgot it for a while because I was in a hurry to avoid it.
Later, I thought it was my hallucination, or maybe it was the after-effects of being pricked by that strange bug.
But now I found out again that it was completely true from what I saw just now, and that thing appeared again, and it was standing next to Liu Ran.
This time, even she found out, because that's not what the light can do at all.
Maybe Liu Ran has already seen the appearance of this thing, but from my position, I can only see a black silhouette, which is no different from a shadow under the light.
Maybe Liu Ran just noticed that there was something around him suddenly, so after he landed, he suddenly pulled the rope to dodge.
She was standing in an awkward position, there were rats behind her, and most of the strength of her body was pressed on the rope, as long as the rope was loosened, she didn't have to think about the consequences, and there was this strange shadow blocking the way at the entrance of the cave, and there was little hope of getting out.
After thinking about it, I saw Liu Ran pulling the rope and climbing up again, as if he wanted to return here.
But she was even more risky in this way, when she went down just now, there were only two of us here, and the weight was okay, but if she came up again, the weight of the three people on this pillar would be easily broken.
It would have been nice if we had separated ourselves a little, but now we are all stuck at one end of the pillar, and there is no way to distance ourselves.
If I try to get away, unless I let go of the rope, then the rope will break the pillar, and we will all die.
Thinking of this, a layer of sweat broke out on my head, and suddenly another hand reached out from not far away.
I was startled by this suddenly outstretched hand, and when I was about to have a seizure, I looked up and saw that this person was Dongfang, who was holding a flashlight in one hand and reaching out to me with the other, as if he was ready to take my place, and asked me to step back and pull the distance away.
But as he got closer and closer, there was a rapid throbbing on the pillar, and I immediately shouted at him, "Don't move, this pillar can't bear it at all, in case my movement is a little bigger." I'm afraid both of us are dead. ”
I really didn't say this to scare him, now that his life is hanging by a thread, I don't have the time to explain anything to him, just let him crawl forward slowly first, and it will be much safer at least if he can climb to the opposite side.
As for me? Looking at the rope in my hand, I gritted my teeth, but I was praying in my heart that nothing would happen!
Seeing that we were one step away from the entrance of the cave, this black shadow suddenly appeared and blocked us again.
When Liu Ran climbed up along the rope again, his feet stood on the hole entrance, his body was straight, and he kept his balance, but just in case, he still looked up and looked up, and saw that I could barely hold on, so he was relieved.
But she was relieved, but I didn't dare to be reassured, because the pillars around me were still beating, and the frequency was more intensive, and Dongfang was also constantly climbing in the direction of the cave entrance at this time.
But he didn't dare to climb too fast, and could only move a little bit, and even then I felt scared, for fear that the pillar would be broken by his careless movement.
Although in our opinion, the weight of the three people is not too fat, but this pillar is not stone, and the flexibility is not large, the weight of the three of us is pressed on it, no matter what, there are more than 100 catties.
At this time, Liu Ran dodged the shadow, stood above the entrance of the cave, and saw that I could hold on here for a while, so he felt something out of his backpack, hoping to have equipment that could deal with this thing.
Taking advantage of this effort, I glanced at the shadow below, its whole body was very stiff, and the light of the flashlight in the east shone on its body, and I found some dense spiritual texts, this thing turned out to be a prisoner.
Supposedly trapped here for such a long time, if it could have crawled out, it would have crawled out a long time ago, so why shouldn't it wait now!
When I saw the rats below, I immediately dispelled the idea that maybe this yin prisoner didn't come out of here.
The body of the prisoner was hung with a half-cut chain, the black chain was swaying slightly, its eyes were staring at the darkness, and its eyes were snow-white, without black pupils.
From my point of view, it is very quiet now, but such silence does not mean that it is harmless, otherwise Liu Ran would not come up again.
Just as I was thinking this, I suddenly heard a creepy laugh, and the source of the sound was from the direction of the Yin Prisoner.
The voice is hoarse and sharp, as if someone scratches the wall with their fingernails, and the eardrums of those who listen to it tremble.
The laughter sounded slowly, and then disappeared suddenly, and at the moment when the surrounding area returned to quiet, the yin prisoner suddenly exploded, jumped upward, and grabbed straight towards Liu Ran.
Liu Ran was taking something out of his backpack at this time, and when he saw that there was a situation, he didn't hesitate, he immediately took a few steps up, shook his hand and shot a flying knife, which was directly inserted into the forehead of the yin prisoner.
Black blood flowed down the hilt of the knife, slicing through the black spiritual inscriptions, dripping little by little into the rats below.
Looking at the size of the opening, as well as the handle left outside, this flying knife is probably more than ten centimeters deep, even if it is not a living person, you can already see it in the bone.
But after Yin was imprisoned by this knife, his body was only slightly stunned, and then as if he had dissolved the power of the flying knife, he crawled over again like a wooden man.
Now, the distance between Liu Ran and this Yin prisoner is only less than a meter or so, and the distance is constantly shortened by it.
But thanks to Liu Ran's good skills, his body suddenly flashed, and in an instant, the strength of his whole body was handed over to the rope, and I was almost not taken down by this sudden force.
Gritting my teeth, I used a lot of force in my hand, barely holding on, and I saw Liu Ran below swinging like a swing, shaking his body out of the hole, and dodging the pounce of the yin prisoner.
And when she quickly reverberated again, the yin prisoner suddenly turned around and pounced in the air.
I couldn't see how it crawled at the entrance of the cave just now, but this pounce made me completely desperate.
The rope in my hand is already unbearable, and if you count the weight of the Yin prisoner, I'm afraid we are really going to die.
I yelled in my heart, but I heard Liu Ran's voice from below, "Shake the rope, don't let it come!" ”
I only reacted when she said this, but the rope in my hand was held so tightly that it made me shake, wasn't it a joke?
If I could let go of the power pick, this pillar probably wouldn't be able to eat this big shaking frequency, so what's the point of doing it?
I smiled bitterly, seeing that the yin prisoner had already pounced, Liu Ran suddenly turned around in a hollow of three hundred and sixty degrees, and with the power of the rope, he wanted to dodge.
Her plan was good, but at such a close distance, and in mid-air, it was inevitable that she would make mistakes, but looking at the situation at the time, she didn't leave us much time at all.
I also tried my best to cooperate with her, and as soon as I struggled in my hands, I suddenly lifted it up, and it felt like I had lifted Liu Ran's whole person.
I understand that it may be a delusion on my part, because I am holding a rope in my hand, and of course there will be a distortion, and who can think so much at this life-or-death juncture.
There is only one thought left in my mind - to keep the rope with all my might, and don't be caught by that yin prisoner.
This time, I was able to breastfeed, and I could clearly feel the pillars around me constantly beating, and layers of liquid flowed out of me.
Time is passing by second, and I keep praying in my heart, I must hold on, I must hold on!
This kind of prayer can comfort oneself to persevere, and can keep oneself rational and calm in the moment of life and death, so as to survive in danger.
I don't know if it's useless for me to do this, and I don't even dare to look down at it, for fear that the result will make me suddenly relax, and my hands shake and throw away all the last hopes.
Liu Ran's skills are indeed very powerful, even if he is in the air, he can freely control his body, if it were me, I am afraid that I would have already peed my pants.
In this way, I was entangled with a heart, and I waited for about a minute, and the weight on my hand still did not increase, and the heart finally let go.
Slowly bowed her head, and saw Liu Ran's body hanging upside down in the air, I think she must have quickly tightened the rope with her body at that time, and barely passed by the yin prisoner.
Looking at the prisoner who fell into the rat swarm, it fell into the rat pile, and quickly climbed up a few black mice, but it hissed, grabbed a few rats from its body with a wave of its hand, and stuffed it into its mouth.
Hearing the terrifying chewing sound, I almost didn't throw it up, and Liu Ran, who was hanging upside down on the rope, didn't say a word, but it didn't seem to be much better than me.
Although we escaped the Yin Prisoner, if I want to pull Liu Ran up from the new, I'm afraid it's impossible, and I guess the pillars around me won't give me this possibility.
Liu Ran hung upside down in the air, glanced at me first, and saw that I nodded, indicating that she could hold on for a while, and then she slowly turned over.
I said I could support it, but I didn't dare to guarantee how long it would last, how long it would not spit out, how long it would hold on to the rope.
The palm of my hand had been strangled by a rope, so I had to move my arm slowly to relieve the pain.
After Liu Ran turned over, he spoke again, "Can you try to put me at the entrance of the cave." ”
I looked up at the distance here, and it wasn't far, but with such a big move, I'm afraid it would ......
