Chapter 5: Lost
The scene in front of me stunned me and Yan Qiu, and I tried my best to find a device to hang that strange man, but the fact was that there was no such thing as a sutra, and he just floated up with the sutra in his mouth.
Yan Qiu asked me in a low voice, "Do you know what kind of spell this is?" Aren't you a Taoist artist? ”
My Dao technique is completely deceptive, there is really no excuse, this skill that can float in the air, it is a real spell.
I shook my head negatively and replied to Yan Qiu: "Don't say you know, it's unheard of." ”
Yan Qiu asked again: "Do you think he floated up, is it because of what he reads in his mouth?" ”
I didn't know how to answer Yan Qiu, so I asked back, "Do you know what he reads?" ”
Yan Qiu said: "I don't know what he is reading, but the language I heard him recite seems to be the same as the shaman we met before we went up the mountain. ”
Could it be that this weirdo is also a shaman? Then his cultivation is obviously much higher than the one that Uncle Galu is looking for, and at first glance, he is not blind, and people are floating alive.
If what he is doing now is to transcend the undead, then at least it can show that this is not a bad person, how can anyone with a heart like a devil still transcend others? But it is not ruled out that he is using a kind of witchcraft, using the corpses of countless sealed one-horned people as sacrifices.
I don't know if he will make it easier for us when he sees the tattoo on Yan Qiu's hand? Just thinking so, I don't dare to go out to meet me if I borrow ten guts. We only pray that he will finish the recitation quickly and return to the outer room to rest, so that we can find a chance to get out safely.
After a while, the strange man finished reading, and his body slowly fell back to the ground as I imagined, and he got up again and prepared to go out. When he stood up, he pushed the mask from his face upwards and pressed it above his head.
It was a good opportunity to see his true face, I stared at his face seriously, and as the mask was pushed away, we also saw his face little by little, and the more I looked at it, the more familiar I felt.
When he completely showed his face behind the mask, what we saw turned out to be a person we knew, I instantly got goosebumps, and all the pores on my body exploded, it was obviously Dai Qin, yes, it was the assistant of the one horn, the Dai Qin who was killed by a huge anaconda in order to push three girls across in the waterhole, and we were really sad for his death.
How could it be him? I can't guess that in this strange place, the monster with strange behavior and very scary dress is actually an acquaintance who has died. Could it be that Dai Qin has another identity? Does he have another purpose as a one-horned assistant? But we saw that he was dead, and all his bones and muscles were broken.
Without waiting for me to think about it, Yan Qiu, who was shocked by this scene, shouted beside her: "That's Dai Qin? Due to the excitement, Yan Qiu's voice was too loud.
The strange man immediately heard Yan Qiu's voice, and he was about to go out, but he was also startled by Yan Qiu's voice, then turned his head, stared at his angry eyes, let out a beastly howl, and then strode in the direction where we were hiding.
Seeing his posture of fighting with others, I sensed that the comer was not good, and I shouted, "Run." Taking Yan Qiu's hand, he ran to the depths of the ice cave.
The ice cave extends in all directions, like a huge ant nest, and we don't care about identifying the direction, just run away with one mind, turn when we see a bend, drill when we see a crack, and run for more than ten minutes before we slow down, but we still don't stop walking.
Yan Qiu gasped and said to me, "Okay? It shouldn't be able to catch up. Where have we got? Do you remember the road? ”
I was so tired that I simply stopped and leaned against the ice wall next to me to observe our environment.
Speaking of observation, in fact, the two of us have completely fallen into darkness, not to mention finding a way back, it is already a problem to be able to go out smoothly. Now that we are alone, we are completely separated from the fat brother.
I'm not worried about the situation of the two of us, I'm just afraid that the fat brother will be in danger. If the fat brother and they had a conflict with that Dai Qin in order to save the two of us, the other party would definitely not be a vegetarian. There is no way, I can only wait in place, if there is no more headless flies running around, it is estimated that the fat brother and they will not be able to find the two of us.
I said to Yan Qiu: "Wait first, listen carefully, in case they find something, don't lose sight." ”
Yan Qiu said: "It's only like this, you run really fast, I thought you remembered the way." ”
I smiled bitterly and said, "What do you remember, my soul is scared of me, you said you can't be calm, and you shouted to attract the wolf." ”
Yan Qiu actually complained and said, "You're still a big man, aren't you Dai Qin?" I'm so scared that I can't go home, right? ”
I was disgruntled, "Don't you see? He floated up. If he wants to kill the two of them in order to hide his identity, who can withstand it? If I hadn't taken you with me, I would have fought with him, wouldn't I be afraid of bogging you down? ”
I don't know if Yan Qiu was persuaded by my reasoning, or moved by my words, anyway, she didn't refute me again, just leaned her head on my shoulder and sat together in the dark ice cave.
After waiting for a long time, I didn't see the shadow of the fat brother, let alone hear their call to find the two of us, I became more and more anxious, I couldn't sit still, and said to Yan Qiu beside me: "Do we want to try to find it back?" ”
Yan Qiu didn't agree with it, and said to me: "You don't even know which direction to go back now, don't go further and further." Why don't we fumble around, find an intersection, sit and wait. They have flashlights, and we follow the light wherever there is light. ”
In this case, Yan Qiu's idea should be the most reliable. Without further ado, we both stood up, and I thought back to the direction we had come from, and felt the ice wall and walked back for a while.
I pulled the scimitar out of my waist, and by the blue light of the knife, carved an arrow at the entrance of the hole where we had just stayed, and if we were to set out to find them, at least we would not enter the hole again, and it would be useful to eliminate an option.
It was another long wait, and I was beginning to slowly lose confidence, when a light faintly came from a hole. Yan Qiu and I seemed to see hope, and happily walked towards the ice cave, feeling closer and closer to the light.
When we turned the last corner, what we saw was not the fat guys, but a not very tall figure wearing a dark red tracksuit, carrying a backpack cross-body.
The man was walking with his back to us, looking more like a walk, as if he wasn't afraid of the environment.
Judging from the way they dress, they must be people who live in the same city as us, and they are not tall, so they must not pose a danger to us.
I immediately shouted at the other side, "Who? ”
Hearing my shout, the man turned his head slowly.
I was happy when I saw it, it was actually Jiang Li. Yan Qiu and I hurriedly ran over, and I asked anxiously, "Jiang Li, what about the fat brothers?" ”
Jiang Li seemed to be frightened by Dai Qin just now, and looked at the two of us there stunned for a while, before he regained his senses, and came up aggrievedly to hug me and Yan Qiu respectively.
It seems that the little girl's nature can't be hidden, no matter how strong she usually pretends to be, she will still be afraid of things.
I touched Jiang Li's head and said, "Okay, okay, it's okay, why are you alone?" Fat brother, what about them? ”
Jiang Li said: "Oh fat brother, we ran and ran away, and we couldn't find it." ”
I asked again, "How did you change your clothes?" Where's your backpack? ”
Jiang Li said: "I fell when I ran just now, and the fat brother and they were gone, I picked up this bag from the ground, there were clothes and a flashlight in it, I changed into a clean one, and threw away the dirty clothes before." ”
I looked at Jiang Li's clothes again, and said to coax her: "Yes, this dress fits well, and it looks taller." ”
Jiang Li smiled, then went to pull Yan Qiu's hand and said, "Sister Yan Qiu, let's go out first, I'm scared here." ”
Yan Qiu said: "We also want to go out, waiting for the fat brother outside the cave is better than waiting inside, but which is the way out?" ”
Jiang Li said: "I know that where the temperature is high, the ice will melt, let's keep going down, where there is a hole, warm air will blow in, which direction melts fast, it means which direction has an exit." ”
Makes sense, how did I not think of that? Keep going downhill, the altitude will get lower and lower, the wind blowing in will be warmer than the above, the natural ice will not freeze so hard anymore, as long as you follow this clue, you will definitely find the way out.
I took Jiang Li's flashlight and walked in front, carefully looking for traces of melting ice, hoping to quickly take Jiang Li and Yanqiu out of the ice cave and find Fat Brother and Su Rina as soon as possible.
