Sheng Wanxiang barely cheered up and cleared her consciousness, she also got down to the kang and walked to Wu Zhiyuan's side, looking at the burning firewood and the beating fire in the stone furnace. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"If the firewood is poisonous, but I haven't touched it, how can I have symptoms of poisoning?" Sheng Wanxiang was a little puzzled by Wu Zhiyuan's inference.
"The toxicity of these firewood works not by contact with people, but by smell." Seeing that Sheng Wanxiang still showed a puzzled expression, Wu Zhiyuan explained, "In the process of burning, these firewood will emit a toxic fragrance, and once a person inhales this fragrance, the whole body will be weak and even drowsy. ”
Sheng Wanxiang suddenly realized: "In this way, someone deliberately soaked the firewood in the venom, and this person expected that after we entered this stone house, we would light the firewood to keep warm, and then we would be poisoned and fall asleep, and then the person who poisoned us would appear, and we would become fish on the anvil and let others slaughter." ”
"It's possible." Wu Zhiyuan speculated, "This trap is set up exquisitely, but who will be the person who set this trap." ”
Sheng Wanxiang fell into thought and was silent.
Wu Zhiyuan did not continue to investigate the truth of the mystery, because the firewood in the stone furnace was still burning, and as long as the firewood continued to burn, the poisonous gas in the firewood would continue to emit out, and the situation of the two would become more and more dangerous.
He walked to the door of the house, opened the door so that the poisonous gas in the house could be released, and then looked around the house, and found no water tank, nor anything else that could be used to extinguish the fire, and finally, he fell on the quilt on the earthen kang, and hurriedly walked to the side of the earthen kang, pulled the quilt down, and wrapped it directly on the stone furnace, wrapping the entire stone furnace tightly.
Sure enough, the fire in the stone furnace was quickly extinguished, and the room became dark.
Looking out at the night sky through the window lattice, the sky was still jet black, with few stars twinkling, and there was no moon.
The cold wind rushed in through the open door, and the last bit of heat left in the stone house was wiped out by the cold wind. Wu Zhiyuan's spirit was suddenly lifted, and his consciousness basically regained consciousness. He hurriedly closed the door of the house, otherwise even if the two of them would not be poisoned to death, they would be frozen to death by the cold night.
After closing the door of the house, Wu Zhiyuan moved to Sheng Wanxiang's side by feeling, fumbled and grabbed her hand, and said in a low voice, "Let's go to the corner and sit down." ”
In the dark, Sheng Wanxiang responded with a soft "um".
The reason why Wu Zhiyuan didn't go to the soil kang with Sheng Wanxiang again is reasonable.
The trap that the two encountered was extremely delicate, and it was obviously laid in advance, and just now the two of them lit the firewood and lit the fire, and the light in the house must have been seen by the person who set the trap, and this person must have been nearby at this time, just waiting for the two to enter the house after the poison attacked. And the soil kang is the only place where the two can rest, and this person will definitely go directly to the soil kang as soon as he enters the house, so the soil kang has become the most dangerous place at this time.
Touching the corner of the wall, Wu Zhiyuan took Sheng Wanxiang's hand and sat down, and the two curled up.
There was no fire in the house, and soon the temperature would drop. Wu Zhiyuan hugged Sheng Wanxiang tightly, so that she would not feel cold.
Time passed slowly, and Wu Zhiyuan's eyes gradually adapted to the dark environment in the house, but he could only see vague images, and he could not see them really.
I don't know how long it took, but it was still dark outside. Wu Zhiyuan felt that Sheng Wanxiang's hands were unusually cold, without a trace of heat, and hurriedly hugged her tighter, and asked in a low voice, "Are you cold?" ”
Sheng Wanxiang in her arms did not speak, nor did she make any response.
Wu Zhiyuan felt a little strange, and hurriedly shook Sheng Wanxiang's body gently, and asked again: "Wanxiang, are you cold?" ”
As soon as the words fell, I only heard Sheng Wanxiang's voice and said, "I'm fine, not cold." Brother Zhiyuan, where are you. ”
Wu Zhiyuan was shocked, he heard Sheng Wanxiang's voice not from his arms, but from a position far away from him, it seemed to be a few meters away from the opposite side, and at the same time, Sheng Wanxiang actually asked where she was, didn't she know that Wu Zhiyuan was holding her at this time.
Wu Zhiyuan's mind was racing, and he understood almost instantly: the person he was holding in his arms at this time was not Sheng Wanxiang.
So who is this person.
A chill rose in Wu Zhiyuan's heart, and in the darkness, he could feel that the person in his arms was soft and boneless, his shoulders were not broad, and he was definitely a woman.
When did this woman enter his arms.
Wu Zhiyuan quickly recalled every detail of what had just happened.
After he used the quilt to extinguish the fire, he closed the door of the house, and then held Sheng Wanxiang's hand in the dark, and pulled her to the corner to sit down, in the process, Wu Zhiyuan never let go of his hand, so there is only one possibility, the person he held his hand at that time was not Sheng Wanxiang at all.
While thinking, Wu Zhiyuan slowly let go of the woman in his arms, and at the same time reached out and held the peachwood sword.
At this moment, I only heard Sheng Wanxiang's voice and asked again: "Brother Zhiyuan, where are you." ”
Wu Zhiyuan followed the prestige, only to see a dark figure not far away from the opposite side slowly standing up, it should be Sheng Wanxiang didn't hear Wu Zhiyuan's response, so he wanted to get up and look for it.
"Sit down where you are, don't come over." Wu Zhiyuan said in a deep voice.
As soon as the words fell, Wu Zhiyuan saw Sheng Wanxiang slowly lower her body and squatted down on the spot.
From beginning to end, the woman beside Wu Zhiyuan didn't make a sound, and Wu Zhiyuan didn't even hear her breathing.
At this time, Wu Zhiyuan had already let go of the woman's hand, and at the same time took a few steps back, and suddenly, he stabbed the peachwood sword in his hand towards the woman's position just now.
Wu Zhiyuan couldn't see the situation in front of him clearly at all, but just estimated the general position of the woman just now, but because the two were very close, this sword should not pierce the air, but what made Wu Zhiyuan stunned was that a sword stabbed out, and he didn't feel any resistance, indicating that his sword stabbed into the air.
As soon as the sword pierced the air, his position and intentions were exposed, so Wu Zhiyuan did not stab the second sword, but suddenly got up, rushed towards Sheng Wanxiang's location, grabbed Sheng Wanxiang's arm, lifted her up, and shouted: "Run." ”
At the same time, Wu Zhiyuan pulled Sheng Wanxiang and ran towards the door of the house.
The location of the two was only a few steps away from the door of the house, Wu Zhiyuan took the lead in rushing to the door of the house, and hurriedly pushed the wooden door, but the strange thing was that no matter how much force he used, the wooden door did not move at all, as if it was locked.
In a hurry, Wu Zhiyuan vaguely felt the gust of wind behind him, the woman seemed to have pounced on the two, he turned his head suddenly, but what he saw was the shadow of a person, in the dark, he couldn't see the person's appearance clearly, but he could hear her rapid breathing due to nervousness, and it was expected that she was Sheng Wanxiang.
Wu Zhiyuan shouted at Sheng Wanxiang: "Take two steps back." As soon as the words fell, he pulled out the Blood Shadow Demon Knife from his waist and slashed at the door of the house several times, until the sawdust flew sideways, and the wooden door also crumbled.
Wu Zhiyuan didn't say a word, and kicked towards the wooden door.
