Battle of Longchang Chapter 4 Poisoning
The three of them slowly groped along the wall, but found nothing, the second master lay on the ground, peeled aside the floating soil and looked at the stones one by one, and returned in defeat.
Everyone fell down from the joy just now, one by one frowning, the second master proposed to let Yuanmei take a new step, Yuanmei was reluctant to this kind of proposal that she knew was futile, but there was no better way, so she had to do it all over again, and the result was the same as expected, without any miracles.
Yuanmei took out the key and continued to squat on the ground to write and draw, when suddenly she looked up and asked me, "Who gave you this name?" ”
I shook my head and said, "I don't know, when I was thrown at the door of Ci'an Hall, I had the word Zhang Xiaofeng on my clothes. ”
"Oh" she agreed thoughtfully, and then wrote my name on the ground, but it was written Lei Xiaofeng, and then counted with her fingers, stood up, took out her compass and walked to the entrance position, found the right direction, and called me over.
I stood next to her for some reason, she counted the stones on the ground, and muttered in a low voice: "Tiange 14 is the ancestral surname, corresponding to fire, due south, personality 29, belongs to water, the direction is due north, the earth grid 26 is earth, the center, the outer grid is 11, and the total grid is 39." ”
After she finished muttering, she asked me to stand at the entrance and pointed out a brick for me to step on, and then the next one, and I struggled to jump around on several stones, but I don't know if she was really right, or if it was a psychological effect, I felt that every stone she pointed at would make a slight clicking sound after stepping on it, as if it had been trampled on.
But before I finished jumping, I heard a crisp sound on the ground in the middle, looked carefully, and found that the stone strip on the ground was suddenly broken into two, and from it rose a golden round stick more than an inch high, the round stick was about the thickness of an adult's fist, and many complex patterns were carved on it, and there was a small hole at the top of the round stick, which looked a little like a keyhole, Yuanmei squatted down and looked carefully, suddenly raised her head, and shouted excitedly: "Lei Jia Whistle."
I hurriedly took it off my neck and handed it to her, she looked at the Lei family whistle, inserted it gently, and slowly twisted it, only to hear a series of sounds similar to mechanical transmission above her head, Yuan Mei quickly pulled out the Lei family whistle and handed it back to me, the three of them supported each other, staring nervously above their heads, for fear that the tunnel would shake again.
This time it was not shaking, but a huge stone bar the length and width of a man fell from the sky, and fell straight in front of us a step away, and the ground trembled, and the heavy dust brought down when it fell instantly extinguished the torch.
I instinctively took half a step back, as the stone fell, there was a continuous sound on it, and before we came back to our senses, we heard the sound The entrance position seemed to fall again, and the entire stone room began to shake again, and the second master shouted next to him: "Run!" It's going to collapse! ”
After shouting, he dragged me, and I reached out to pull Yuanmei, only to find that the person was gone.
I hurriedly grabbed the second master who was about to escape and shouted, "Yuanmei is gone!" ”
"What about people!?" ”
"I don't know! I'll go find it! ”
"What are you looking for, let's go, or you'll die!" ”
As he spoke, he pulled me to the door with his memory, and just after running two steps, he felt a wind rise around him, and a person jumped over, and then Yuanmei's voice sounded in front: "This way." ”
Yuan Mei pulled the second master, the three of them pulled one by one, and quickly ran into the small door hole that he was optimistic about, at this time the sound behind him was getting louder and louder, and it had reached the point of deafening, it seems that the tunnel as a whole has begun to collapse, no wonder Lei Yuhao didn't let us look for the other half of the eight ancient jade, it turned out that this old fox had already known everything.
At this moment, they are holding each other tightly, and if they let go at this moment, they will never be able to get out, but fortunately, this stone step is not long, only twenty or thirty steps, but when they ran to the end, they found that the exit was covered with a huge stone slab.
The second master pulled Yuanmei behind him, holding the slate alone, exerting his arms, gritting his teeth and pushing desperately, but this slate was too thick, no matter how he exerted his strength, he never moved, even so, the sunlight could shine in from the gaps around the slate, and at the same time sent in the fresh air outside, if we were given some time, find something that could act as a crowbar, and push it while prying, we would definitely be able to get out, but now the whole tunnel is collapsing, and behind him is a rumbling sound, and the soil is wrapped in large and small stones, Hail in front of you and behind you, the feeling of being separated by a wall from the escape is the most maddening.
The second master grinned against the stone slab, the two sides competed, they were all motionless, the stone steps were too narrow and too high, I stood on tiptoe and could barely touch the stone slab, I couldn't make any effort at all, the second master alone stood at his level, and he couldn't squeeze it if he wanted to, he could only fight the fire and no water, so he was in a hurry, Yuanmei shouted behind me: "Quick!" The centipede is coming! ”
I was shocked when I heard this sentence, and hurriedly turned around to look, but it was pitch black behind me, and I couldn't see anything.
I hurriedly turned to the second master, he was still sweating profusely and fighting with the slate, at this time my sweat also came down, suddenly saw his figure flashed, staggered, the slate began to move, I took a long breath, and said that it was really a great blessing to the great life and great creation, every time I can be in danger of becoming auspicious, every time I turn evil into auspiciousness, it is really my life that should not be extinguished, but when I saw the surprised eyes of the second master, as well as his hanging hands and the slate sliding alone, I feel that things may not be as beautiful as I imagined.
The moment the slate opened, the strong sunlight shone down violently, so that those of us who had been drilling in the dark tunnel for a long time, like a mouse who saw the light, covered their eyes and lowered their heads one by one, and then, the shoulders were grabbed, and the number above the head was heard: "One, two, three" The whole person was lifted up instantly, and before he opened his eyes, he was tied with a few hemp ropes, and was dragged forward and began to run forward, and the sound of metal collision was clearly heard in his ears, this sound was too familiar, if he guessed correctly, the other party should be carrying a Zhongzheng rifle.
I hadn't run far before I heard a heart-rending scream behind me, followed by someone next to me shouting, "What the fuck, what?!" ”
At this time, my eyes have been able to open a slit slightly, look up, the sky is covered by dense branches and leaves, look at both sides, are gray military uniforms, at the moment is dragging me like a dead body, running in the woods with life, I turned my head to look, only to see a black, violently twisted human figure behind him is constantly struggling, next to him stood a shivering child in military uniform, extremely panicked crying face helplessly looking at him, with the human form fell to the ground, The black mass pounced on the child again, and in the snap of his fingers, the child crawled from head to toe with black centipedes, and a terrible, almost human scream came from the writhing black human form, and the hearts of those who listened to it were terrified.
Fortunately, the child only screamed, and fell to the ground, after a few convulsions, the black centipede retreated like a tide, revealing two white skeletons, still maintaining the extremely painful posture before death, at this time someone lit a torch, and threw it towards the black tide and two white bones, the torch dragged the black smoke from the kerosene burning, drew a perfect arc, and accurately fell into the centipede pile next to the white bones, and an extremely unpleasant rancid smell accompanied by the rise of green smoke, quickly dispersed, The two men who were dragging me only stopped for a moment, and then continued to run.
The centipedes crossed the torches and chased after them, there was a great posture to drive away all of us who were destroying the family and destroying the country, the torches were like shooting stars, every few steps would be slashed over the head, followed by the sound of beeping horns, the disgusting smell and fewer and fewer centipedes, the black centipede tide seemed to really become water at this time, while flowing, while being consumed, and finally became a few wisps at the end of the strong crossbow, until it disappeared completely.
After confirming that the centipede was completely gone, people breathed a sigh of relief and found an open place to stop, and the three of us were gathered together, seven or eight people gathered us in the center, and I took the opportunity to examine the environment I was in.
These people had no armbands on their uniforms, and in addition to the brand-new Zhongzheng rifles they were carrying behind their backs, each of them had an original German box cannon hanging from their waists.
After a short break, one of the older people said: "Go", a few soldiers carrying our equipment on their backs set us up and marched towards the depths of the woods, I took the opportunity to look at the second master, he happened to peek at me, he asked me with his eyes, I turned my head to look at Yuanmei again, she seemed to be unconscious, lowered her head, couldn't see her face clearly, I had an ominous premonition in my heart, and shook my head gently towards the second master, the second master also glanced at Yuanmei, and then frowned, showing both concerned and helpless looks.
After walking a few steps, the soldier holding Yuanmei suddenly shouted: "Platoon Commander Sun, this woman doesn't seem to be good" As soon as I heard this, I was shocked, and the second master also stopped, a group of people hurriedly looked at Yuanmei behind, the platoon commander surnamed Sun walked over and instructed them to loosen Yuanmei and put it on the ground, only then did I find that Yuanmei's lips were blue and purple, and her face was like white paper, and the order that Platoon Commander Sun got should be to stay alive, so he nervously asked the soldiers next to him: "How did you do it?" ”
"Report sir, I don't know, this woman was fine at first, but the more she walked, the more she couldn't, I thought she was scared." ”
"Fart, you're not afraid of a recruit, whatever she can be afraid of, you can't scare her to death." The second master shouted angrily, and with it, the butt of a gun was smashed heavily on his head.
Platoon Commander Sun snorted: "Okay" and pointed at me with his hand: "Do you know what the situation is?" ”
I shook my head and said, "You let me see, a good person, definitely not for no reason"
Platoon Commander Sun looked at me, then at Yuanmei, hesitated, I said: "She is the most important character in our group, if she dies, I'm afraid you won't be able to explain, and if you really can't save it, it's better to die in our hands than to die in your hands, what do you say?" ”
He thought about it, nodded slightly, raised his head and said, "Untie." ”
A few soldiers behind me were a little hesitant, and they wanted to say something, but Platoon Leader Sun raised his eyebrows and shouted, "Untie up!" ”
The soldier was taken aback, and then reluctantly untied the rope from my body, it seems that these people were improvised, and they did not even have the most basic trust.
I rubbed my numb shoulders and walked towards Yuanmei, just took a step, there was a sound of pulling the bolt and loading it around, I smiled helplessly, squatted beside Yuanmei, from head to neck, looking carefully.
At this time, her breathing was very weak, her face was obviously hot, but she was as white as a dead corpse, her eyes were closed, and her eyelids kept beating as if she was cramping, and I vaguely felt that she was poisoned.
If it is poisoned, the three people on the way have not eaten the water and rice, it is impossible to eat it, then it is only bitten, the poison that can bite people, a black shadow flashed in my mind, and I sighed in my heart, it won't be so unlucky, right?
As the so-called house leak coincided with the overnight rain, I searched from head to neck and did not find any bite marks, and just had a little fluke in my heart, I saw the high swollen bulge on her left hand, and suddenly a chill rose, thinking of what she said before, "Touch the grass and trees to death, to bite people, there is no one to resist", can only helplessly shake his head towards the second master.
The second master was stunned for a moment, then got up from the ground in three or two times, regardless of the scolding of the soldiers next to him, walked to Yuanmei's side, and asked me softly, "What's wrong?" What does it mean? ”
"Bitten. ”
"What got bitten?" Who bitten? ”
"Look. I pointed to the red and swollen bite marks on Yuanmei's hand, and the second master was stunned for a moment, and then shouted loudly: "Quick, quickly turn over her bag, there is medicine in it, just the one you carry, hurry up!" ”
