Chapter 37: Escape
The people outside are very good, that is needless to say, even through the door, Yan Qiu's voice is not small, and it instantly alarmed the few people outside the door.
A deep voice outside said, "Who?" โ
I'm still familiar with this voice, the one who was in Cao Cao's tomb before.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of small footsteps outside the door, and it seemed that those people had already run towards our door.
At this time, how can I talk to Yanqiu about my children's personal affairs again, as soon as I pulled Yanqiu's arm, I ran to the top of the stairs.
The others followed us and ran up with us.
In fact, we don't know where the top leads, and the only purpose now is to stay away from those people, as long as we can keep a distance, regardless of whether the top is dead end.
Apparently calmer than we were, he leaned against the door and turned to us and said, "You go first, I'm here in the way." โ
If we all ran up in a swarm, it wouldn't take us three minutes before we were caught up by the well-trained mercenaries, and now we could only hope that the unicorn would block for a while, and since he offered to stay, there must be a way out.
I didn't have time to think about it, so I snorted and said yes, and led everyone up to the top of the iron staircase.
The one-horned one foot kicked the stairs behind him, and the rest of his body was against the door, even the door of his head.
This iron staircase is very long, and we quickly ran into the darkness, but the sound of slamming the door with the butt of a gun downstairs has been urging us to run up, and the steps have become a reflex step, even in the dark, everyone is stepping on each step accurately, and no one falls because they can't see the road clearly, it seems that the potential of people is extremely great.
After running up for more than ten minutes, I still couldn't see the top, and my body was already starting to lose its support. From the heavy panting of others, it can be heard that they are also very tired. But the sound of slamming the door downstairs continued, and the other party could be heard kicking the door instead.
Not only was the sound of kicking the door, but there was also the sound of a single horn struggling to top the door downstairs, this kind of hoarse scream, indicating that he had used all his strength to feed, just to buy us enough time to escape.
For the sake of the unicorn sacrificing his life to block the gun's hole, none of us dared to slow down, and we still climbed up with no head or brain.
As I was running, my head hit something and thud, almost preventing me from rolling back down the stairs. I rubbed the top of my head with one hand and touched the top with the other, and our staircase was already at the end, it was really a dead end, and the roof seemed to be wooden. The top cover was very cold, and a biting cold wind blew down through the cracks overhead.
No, since there is wind, it means that there is space on it, is there a cold storage here? Is this staircase leading to cold storage? Is there still frozen meat stored in it?
No matter what, I had to run if I had a way, I clenched my fists, and I didn't care about the pain of my fists, so I stabbed them out to the top of my head. I heard a thud, and the wooden board above my head was really stabbed by my punch, and a lot of snowflakes fell from the wooden board. My fist was numb, and I held the edge with my other hand and poked my head out to see where the bottom of the top was leading.
When I stretched out my upper body, I saw that it was not a cold store, but the top of another mountain, and it seemed that this iron staircase ran through the whole mountain, directly from the arsenal at the bottom of the peak to the top of the mountain.
Now, as long as we run out and find a place to hide, then we can be considered to have escaped.
I first lifted the three girls out, and then helped the fat brother squeeze them out, and then turned around and shouted down: "There is a road above, run." โ
I don't know if the unicorn heard it, the stairwell is straight up, there is no barrier in the middle, it stands to reason that the unicorn should be able to hear very clearly.
After saying hello to the unicorn, I climbed out of the stairwell with everyone.
Outside, there was a snowy field with white everywhere, a pine forest on the top of the mountain, covered with snow, and in the distance there was an oversized heavenly pond, at least two kilometers in diameter. It's morning, and there's a thin layer of white mist in mid-air, and the snow glows in the sunlight, and the light mist flows slowly, making the scenery light and dark. In the distance, the mountains are shrouded in mist, like a fairyland.
I now know what people call the sacred mountains and what they call them, and the scenery here is truly amazing, and if it weren't for the mountain from below, you wouldn't have imagined that it's August now.
Looking back at the place where we came up, it was like a cellar hidden in the snow, and as you can imagine, before I pushed the wooden canopy, it was completely covered in snow.
No one was in the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery, so they all went straight to the pine forest.
I picked up a pine branch from the ground that had been crushed by the snow, walked at the back of the line, and used the pine branch to clean up the tracks that everyone had run.
When we felt that the distance was relatively safe, we collectively lay down in the snow nest, staring at the place where we came up, and kept praying in our hearts, hoping that the next one to come up would be the single horn.
Before we could catch our breath, there was a series of muffled noises coming from the cellar, which was the sound of an automatic rifle, and because of the structure of the cellar, the sound was muffled.
At the same time, our hearts are also cold, it seems that the group of people shot in a hurry, and the unicorn may be in a catastrophe, how can a wooden door block the bullet? Behind the wooden door, there is a single horn, and at that time he was almost all attached to the door, and it is conceivable that the single horn has been beaten into a sieve today.
The fat brother was in a hurry, and he was about to run back when he got up, and said in his mouth: "I fought with these beasts, how can it be so excessive to bully people?" Don't think about it today. โ
In a moment's hurry, I jumped up and grabbed both of the fat brother's ankles (huรกi).
The fat brother leaned forward hard, and was grabbed by me, and fell straight into the snow.
I hurriedly used all fours, climbed onto the fat brother's back, pressed the fat brother under me, and said anxiously: "Fat brother, don't be impulsive, otherwise the unicorn will die in vain." As I spoke, my tears were already falling.
The tears that fell on the snow, and there was not even a sound, they were already hidden in the snow, like a single horn, a good big living person, unarmed, almost without any resistance, and was killed.
As long as I save my life, one day I must ask for an explanation for him, I don't care what he did, which family's royal law he violated, after all, he died to protect us, let me swallow my anger, I will not be reconciled. But at this moment, we are obviously not against each other, because of impulsiveness and desperately, we can only die in vain, and there will be no good results, so I have to suppress my anger, and at the same time, I must firmly suppress the anger of the fat brother. Now I hope that when those people come up, they will not find us, and we will be able to avoid this catastrophe smoothly.
I was still staring at the cellar with my eyes, and my brain kept playing out the tragic scene of the one-horned being shot.
At this moment, we heard a series of loud noises, as if a lot of explosives had been detonated, and then our body, like an earthquake, kept shaking.
While shaking, a person in the cellar showed his head, and when the upper body of that person leaned out, I recognized it at a glance, it was none other than a single horn.
The unicorn is not dead, I can't express my complicated feelings, the unicorn is not dead, this is a great joy, but what will happen next, no one can predict.
I hurriedly got up and reaffirmed with my red eyes that it was the one-horned, and I jumped and beckoned, shouting, "Here, come, look this way." โ
The unicorn spotted us at once, and quickly ran towards the pine forest, and when the unicorn ran in front of us, the vibration below stopped.
I circled around the horn three times to make sure he was not injured, and then asked the horn: "What's going on down there?" How does it feel like an earthquake? โ
Dujiao nodded, and said quickly: "I blew up below, and they shouldn't dare to come up for a while, for fear that I will ambush on the stairs." Let's find a secluded place first and go farther. โ
I turned back to the others and said, "Go with the unicorn first, and I'll lie down here to see if there's any situation, and if they come up, I'll tell you." Yan Qiu was about to open her mouth to stop her, but I continued: "It's all this time, no one wants a mother-in-law or mother-in-law, so let's be smart." โ
So, without saying a word, they all got up and prepared to continue their journey into the pine forest with the unicorn.
Before leaving, Jiang Li whispered to me: "Zhanxiao, I have dropped my bag below." โ
The bag contained the Demon Blade, so I quickly asked, "Where did it go?" Can you remember? โ
Jiang Li pursed his lips and said, "The office where I slept." โ
I nodded and said, "It's all blown up below, and I guess I can't find it back, so you can follow first." โ
After Jiang Li also left, I wondered in my heart, should I go back again?
