Chapter Twenty-Three: Kuroko's Attempt

At this moment, we have a strong enemy in front of us, and there is no way to retreat, and we are in the light, the enemy is in the dark, we may become the mouth of the water-absorbing Gu at any time, at this time, the monkey said: "Why don't we take out a climbing rope and throw it from here, and see if we can hang it on the big stone at the edge of the hole!" ”

As soon as I heard it, I knew that this method would definitely not work, we were more than ten meters high from the entrance of the cave, not to mention whether the rope could be thrown, even if it was thrown up, how could the bare rope hang the stone!

The monkey has begun to do what he said, the material of this climbing rope is relatively light, and it is not very high, but I saw that the monkey threw it more than a dozen times, and the rope has not even touched the stone wall above our heads, and it is still a long way off.

The monkey was so tired that he could only gasp for breath and said, "Damn, this rope is like cotton, and it can't be thrown high!" Kuroko watched from the side and didn't speak, suddenly he took out a torch that didn't work, and tied one end of the rope in the middle of the handle, I knew his intention at a glance, he was trying to throw the torch guò, so as to bring the rope to the hole, as long as the length of the torch is longer than the size of the hole, if the angle of the throw is right, the torch can get stuck at the hole, so that we can climb up along the rope.

Kuroko finished tying the rope and threw the torch towards the entrance of the hole, the first two throws were not very accurate, both hit the stone wall and fell down, and the third time it was just right, the torch passed through the hole vertically, and when it fell down again, it just stuck at the entrance of the hole, Kuroko pulled the rope down with his hand, it looked relatively firm, but I don't know if the torch can withstand our weight.

Of the four of us, Kuroko weighed the lightest, and he was the most skilled, so Kuroko planned to go up first, and as soon as he got to the top, he could grab the rope and pull us up one by one, even if he met the man who cut our rope on it, it shouldn't be difficult to deal with with him.

Then, Kuroko climbed up along the rope, just climbed the first step, we heard the squeak of the torch at the entrance of the hole, that is the sound of the rope tightening the torch and the force, as the Kuroko continued to climb up, the handle of the torch has been stretched into an arc, at this time none of us spoke, just quietly looked up at the back of the Kuroko climbing up, as if afraid that the torch carrying the weight of the sunspot would be broken as soon as the sound sounded!

Suddenly there was silence all around, only the sound of Kuroko's gasping for breath and the creaking sound of the torch handle at the mouth of the hole above our heads kept coming, and at this time our hearts were all pinched together, for fear of hearing the click of the torch breaking, and our hearts said that if even the lightest and best Kuroko could not reach it, then we would not be able to reach it, let alone us.

It's a pity that God didn't follow my wishes, and when the sunspot climbed halfway, the click sound we didn't want to hear came from above our heads, and we saw that the torch at the entrance of the cave broke into two sections, and the rope, the torch, and the sunspot fell directly from the air together.

I saw Kuroko quickly twist his body in the air, rotate several 360 degrees in a row, and then landed on his feet and stood firmly on the floor.

Only then did we react, only to see Kuroko pat the dust on his body, and then said angrily: "Damn, it's time for me to lose weight!" When the monkey saw that the sunspot could not go up to it, and our only hope of going out was thus dashed, he immediately became angry, and he took all his anger out on the man who cut our rope: "Damn, I will do his ancestor, if I catch the dog thief who cut our rope, I will have to dismantle him!" ”

I saw that the monkey was sulking and couldn't say anything, so I said to Kuroko, "I said Brother Kuroko, why don't we try again, this time let's tie up a few more torches, so that it won't be a problem to bear your weight!" ”

Kuroko smiled bitterly after hearing this, and said, "Do you think I didn't think of it, you go and see how many torches we have!" I immediately felt bad when he said this, I immediately went to look at the torches in our bag, damn it, the one that Kuroko took just now was already the last one!

I looked at the burning torches in our hands again, and they were already burned out of a large section, and they were obviously smaller than the size of the hole, and they were no longer usable.

Now it was really a broken house and it was raining continuously, and the hope of getting out of the cave was completely shattered, and now there were not even many torches left. At this time, Kuroko said again: "Let's quickly extinguish all the torches in our hands, we use flashlights to illuminate, and the torches should be kept to burn human corpses!" ”

As soon as we heard it, we all agreed, and immediately put out the torches in our hands, and all started the flashlights, the flashlight is stronger than the torch, and the radiator is farther, but it does not have the wide area irradiated by the torch, in this dark space, we are used to the torch sweeping a large area of lighting, and suddenly we are a little uncomfortable with the flashlight.

So we turned the aperture of the flashlight a little bigger. At this time, the human corpse lit by the sunspot had been burned to ashes, the fire had been extinguished, and the monkey said: "Hey, I said, should we go and see if there are any water-absorbing Gu that have not been burned in the ashes of the pile of human corpses, if there are still a few fish that have slipped through the net, it will not be good!" ”

As soon as I heard it, I felt reasonable, although I hadn't seen this water-absorbing Gu with my own eyes, but when I heard what Kuroko said was so scary, I already felt a sense of fear of it, and I said that it was better to be careful, so I went over with the monkey and tossed it around the pile of ashes with a extinguished torch.

Seeing that we were stirring up the pile of ashes, Kuroko said, "Don't worry, this water-absorbing Gu is based on human corpses as its host, and without a host, they will die in no more than five minutes!" ”。

The monkey and I didn't pay attention to the sunspot's words, just pounding in the ashes, pounding and pounding, and didn't find a single water-absorbing Gu, then the monkey shouted: "Damn, I didn't find a single one, all the fucking ashes were burned!" ”

I always felt a little awkward when I heard the monkey's words, so I said: "I said monkey, what's the matter, you are still disappointed if you don't find the water absorption Gu, if you really let you find you, will you be happy?" ”

When the monkey heard this, he touched his head embarrassedly and said, "Hey, it's not like I haven't seen this water-absorbing Gu, I just want to see what it looks like and gain some knowledge!" I replied, "Hmph, didn't you listen to Kuroko?" There are probably hundreds of corpses here, and you'll see it then! When the monkey heard this, he immediately waved his hand at me and said, "Don't don't, don't see it!" ”。
