Chapter 13: Life and Death
When I woke up, I found that I had come to the center of the patio tunnel, and the fat man and Yue'er were standing by my side, fending off the attack of the hairy face monsters.
Seeing that we only had the ability to parry and had no power to fight back, the three of them wanted to retreat to the end of the patio tunnel for refuge. At this time, the house leak and the overnight rain, and the evil ghost cry that I and I were afraid of before resounded in the patio tunnel like a knocking stone.
This abrupt ghost cry made the hairy-faced monsters in front of us instantly stop attacking us, and they stopped and turned sideways together, stretching their necks to look behind, looking deferentially and humblely, as if they were waiting for the arrival of some big man.
The three of us looked at the behavior of the hairy-faced monsters strangely, and thought: The thing that made this terrible ghost scream must be very terrifying, and even the hairy-faced monsters showed a very frightened look, so how should we, the three humans who were seriously injured, face this unknown fear.
The fat man turned his head in surprise and wanted to ask me something, but at the moment when we were confused, a black shadow flew over like a lightning speed, directly knocking the fat man out and falling to the feet of me and Yue'er. I had fully recovered my body, and hurriedly picked up the fat man who fell at my feet to check. After this powerful impact, the fat man oozed blood from the corners of his mouth, and his eyes looked ahead in astonishment. I was glad in my heart that the fat man didn't faint and shouldn't have been seriously injured.
I picked up the fat man who had fallen to the ground, and I saw a huge hairy-faced monster in front of us, standing proudly in front of the hairy-faced beasts, with a snake-like sinister eye, staring at us viciously.
I looked at the strangely large one-eyed hairy face in front of me, and said to myself: It's really a narrow road. This one-eyed hairy monster is the one-eyed monster we met when we were digging a straight hole before, it should also push the fat man into the deep pit, and then trick us into eating food, and I thought that the fat man was pulling and running in the passage on the ground, and the long-haired monster that I thought was running in front of the hairy beasts, should be the leader of this group of hairy monsters.
Yue'er and I supported the fat man who vomited blood, and then kept retreating backwards. The one-eyed hairy-faced monster reversed the previous way of running away in a hurry, squinting his eyes wickedly, the corners of his mouth rising slightly in sarcasm, looking at our panicked retreat, as if he was ridiculing and mocking our downfall. It watched us keep retreating, with a relaxed and leisurely catwalk, and slowly moved forward gracefully. Behind it, a group of hairy-faced monsters happily followed behind it, letting out a few excited screams from time to time.
We recoiled to the end of the tunnel, and behind us was a whole stone wall with a stone wall embedded in it, half a man's height above the ground, and I didn't have the time or leisure to check what was inside. The three of them saw that they were already leaning against the stone wall, and there was no way back behind them.
The fat man gritted his teeth, glared angrily at the arrogant face of the one-eyed monster in front of him, was furious, gritted his teeth and said viciously: "A little beast, how dare you be so arrogant." After saying that, I had to go forward and fight the one-eyed hairy monster, Yue'er and I grabbed his arm so hard that the fat man couldn't move. We kept telling him not to act on his own, and assured him, "We will never let this arrogant little beast wander for too long, and when we find an opportunity, we will definitely wipe them all out in one fell swoop." β
At this time, the one-eyed monster in front of us suddenly attacked as quickly as a wind, and before we could see its figure clearly, Yue'er was already lying on the ground motionless. The fat man and I hurriedly flipped Yue'er lying on the ground and found that she had only been knocked unconscious and had not been fatally injured.
Seeing Yue'er unconscious, the fat man's anger could no longer be suppressed, and he picked up his backpack and pounced on the one-eyed monster. I leaned Yue'er against the wall, picked up the lantern with my left hand and joined the battle, and the small hairy monsters nearby just jumped up and down on the sidelines to watch and coax, and did not participate in the battle between the one-eyed monsters and us.
Even if it's two to one, the fat man and I don't take advantage. We were both wounded by different Cheng dΓΉ now, and the speed of the monster's attack was so fast that it was completely beyond the scope of the human eye to catch it, and there was no way to keep up with its attack, and soon the fat man and I were defeated.
The fat man is now injured in both legs, and his movement is even more inconvenient. And I'm in a situation where I'm not going to get to the point where I'm left to shout when I fight. However, my current physical condition is almost no better than that. The fat man and I are in the current situation can only be beaten, and there is no way to fight back. And the one-eyed monster, instead of attacking us violently, toyed with us like a cat that had caught a mouse, and did not want to get rid of us all at once.
In the face of such humiliation as the one-eyed monster, the fat man was so angry that the blue tendons on his forehead protruded, his face was very ugly, he turned his head sideways and bit his back molars and asked me: "Lao Zheng, do you have a way to kill this little beast, this ghost thing is so annoying, Lao Tzu can't wait to skin it alive now." β
I cried and said, "You can't do it, what can I do." β
The fat man was so angry that he stomped his feet and said anxiously: "Grandma's, you can't beat it, you can't run it, what can I do?" β
The one-eyed hair-faced monster probably knew that we had nothing to do with it, and grinned at the one-eyed monster with a wicked smile on its face, and whoever saw its expression probably wanted to slap it.
I looked at its treacherous face, and couldn't help but feel evil rising from the edge of my guts, and an extremely hideous smile appeared on my face, and I swore in my heart: If I don't kill you today, I should have your surname from now on. But I thought to myself, no, where did this hairy brute come to his surname. So he secretly swore in his heart: If I don't kill you today, I won't be able to find my wife in the future.
I racked my brain and thought for a moment, and suddenly a flash of inspiration occurred in my mind, and then I smiled slyly and said two words to the fat man: "Outwit." After speaking, he stuffed the ever-bright lamp into his hand, then opened the backpack on the ground and took out the hairspray in Yue'er's bag.
I nestled the mousse hairspray in my hand, and then laughed loudly, laughing so loudly that all the hairy-faced monsters around us looked at me vigilantly, and the one-eyed monster in the lead jumped directly in front of me, waving its sharp claws and pounced on me. I was secretly happy in my heart, and I said in my heart: My purpose is to attract your attention, but I didn't expect you to come to the door so soon.
The one-eyed monster pounced on me, and as its claws cut through the clothes of my right arm, I instantly raised my left hand, aimed the mousse hairspray nozzle at its one-eye, and pressed it hard, and a large pile of thick white hairspray foam immediately stuck on its one-eye. The one-eyed monster immediately screamed in pain, fell to the ground and rolled around.
The opportunity must not be lost, and I immediately shouted without delay: "Fatty." β
Before I could call him, the fat man had already jumped in front of the one-eyed monster lying on the ground, raised the iron pillar of the ever-bright lamp, and slammed it into the body of the one-eyed monster. Then the one-eyed monster lying on the ground twitched a few times, and then stopped screaming and struggling.
And the hairy-faced little monsters around us, looking at the dying one-eyed monster on the ground, saw such a scene, and immediately exploded the pot, and jumped up from the ground as if they were dead, and attacked us. All of a sudden, the fat man and I had no complete place on our clothes.
The fat man waved the ever-bright lamppost with only a stick left in front of me, looking at the crazy hairy monster group and the blood-stained lamppost, I felt emotion in my heart, and said to the fat man with a wry smile: "It turns out that we have such a great fate!" That is, they can live and die together, and they can also be in the same hole after death. It seems that the two of them are brothers in this life, and it is estimated that they may be husband and wife in the last life, don't you say? β
The fat man pursed his lips and said to me with a smile: "You have been a boy and a girl all your life, you are too handsome, if you were a woman in your last life, you must be like a beauty from all directions." As the old saying goes, since ancient times, there have been many disasters and waters, and I will definitely not be blessed with disasters like you, fat man. β
I smiled and said to him, "Maybe in my last life, you were a woman and I was a man." β
The fat man didn't think about it, and immediately replied: "Return you to weave cloth and let me plow the field!" After speaking, he laughed and said, "If you look like me, I guess you will definitely not be blessed." After listening to the fat man's words, we both laughed loudly at the same time, as if the pioneers of the revolution were facing the enemy's bayonets, ready to be generous and righteous.
I laughed with the fat man**, and the group of little hairy monsters around us were hairy, and they stood alertly in place and didn't dare to act lightly. At this time, there was a sound of stones rubbing against each other behind me, and then I heard Yue'er shouting, "Come here, you two, there is a stone gate here." β
As soon as the fat man and I heard that there was hope of escape, our bodies were immediately filled with energy, and we rushed in the direction of Yue'er's shouting. The little monsters surrounding us didn't have time to react, they were stunned for a moment, and then immediately chased after the two of us. The fat man and I ran to the front of Yue'er, and we didn't see the stone gate she was talking about, but saw her standing in a niche half a meter high above the ground, which was about half a zhang wide and one zhang high, and there was nothing on it.
The fat man tilted his head and asked Yue'er anxiously, "Where is the door?" β
Yue'er didn't answer, but jumped down from the alcove above, and then ran to a place ten paces away, crouching down and groping on the ground.
At this time, the hairy-faced monster had already rushed towards the alcove, baring its fangs and jumping from the ground to attack. While dodging the attack of the hairy-faced monster, we kept an eye on Yue'er's every move, and saw her groping on the ground, then stood up, and stepped down on the ground with one foot, and then I heard a rumbling sound behind me, and the stone wall in the alcove actually rose slowly.
It turned out that the inner wall of the alcove was a stone door that could be opened, and the stone door slowly opened, revealing the dark room behind.
When the fat man saw the stone door open, he immediately jumped up to the alcove, then stretched out his hand and pulled me up, and then shouted loudly to Yue'er, who was standing not far away, "Come here." β
Yue'er, who was standing on the ground, still maintained a stomping posture, standing motionless, with her back to her back and shouting loudly without looking back: "You two go in quickly." β
The fat man anxiously shouted to Yue'er: "What are you still rubbing? Come here. β
Yue'er turned her head and said to the two of us: "This dark room switch must be stepped on all the time before the door can be opened, I can't leave here, you two go in quickly." β
As soon as Yue'er's words fell, a few hairy-faced monsters jumped up the alcove, and the fat man and I hurriedly kicked a few hairy-faced monsters off the alcove. And the hairy-faced monster continued to run up the alcove, and after a while, the fat man and I were already sweating and exhausted, and if we were not careful, there was another wound on our body.
The fat man looked at Yue'er, who was standing motionless in the distance, and took advantage of the gap before the hairy-faced monster came up, flew off the alcove, ran to Yue'er's side, and said to Yue'er: "You go up, I'll stay here." β
As soon as the fat man left the alcove, I immediately became the target of public criticism, and there were several more scars on my legs at once. When I saw that they were both standing on the ground and refused to leave, I shouted to them, "Don't fight, none of them can stay here, we just fight these monsters to the end." After saying that, he was going to jump off the alcove.
At this time, Yue'er pushed the fat man violently, and said angrily: "You two don't be heroes, go to the stone gate quickly, I have a way to get in." β
The fat man asked her in disbelief, "What can you do, tell me." Then you go in first, and I'll stay here to do it. β
Yue'er said to him a little anxiously: "Your light skills are not as good as mine, and your leg is injured again, so you can't implement it." You give me the backpack first, and then hurry over, Brother Sven can't stand it. β
The fat man heard that Yue'er's words were reasonable, and when he turned around, he saw that I had been knocked to the ground by the hairy-faced monsters in the alcove, so he had to hand over the backpack to Yue'er, and then turned around and ran to the stone wall, flew up and jumped on the alcove, kicked away the several hairy-faced monsters that pounced on me, and then quickly pulled me up from the ground, flashed into the stone room behind the alcove, and several hairy-faced monsters also jumped in with perseverance.
The fat man and I were in a stalemate with the hairy-faced monsters that jumped into the stone room, each vigilantly watching each other's every move, always ready for the next battle.
As a result, before the two of us could start the battle, the stone door in the alcove suddenly fell with a thud and closed tightly.
The heavy stone gate shut Yue'er out, and at the same time shut out my heart and the fat man's heart.
