Chapter 11 The boat capsized in the gutter
I rushed into the water, and the dagger slashed down at the monster's head, and the monster's body shrank into the conch shell so quickly that it couldn't be seen at all after it retracted because the conch shell was so long inside. However, it could not move after hiding in it, so I scooped up the conch shell and hurried back to shore. In such a short period of time, I already felt a fever all over my body, and there seemed to be countless threads in my body pulling towards my head, as if someone was cramping my muscles at the same time as I had a high fever.
I was so angry that I was planted in the hands of this inexplicable little monster, and I slashed it with a dagger a few times, but I couldn't break the hard shell, so I put it on the rocky ground, picked up a big stone of fifty or sixty pounds, and smashed it down with all my might.
With a "bang", a large amount of yin qi escaped.
I pushed the stone away, only to see a stream of black gas rising from the fragments, but I didn't see flesh and blood, could it be that the monster just now was condensed by yin qi and poisonous gas?
Xiaoxue's somewhat weak and frightened voice sounded: "Oh no, I may have been poisoned, go back to the ground......"
That monster will not only poison me, but also poison Xiaoxue? I couldn't believe it, but I didn't dare to hesitate for a moment, and struggled to grab the rope and climb, and I couldn't care about the old ghost who was hiding.
At this time, the feeling of "cramping" is no longer so obvious, the feeling of fever is transferred to the body, and the surface of the body begins to feel cold, the whole body is weak, and it is difficult to concentrate.
As I crawled, I probed the situation in my body, the meridians were unblocked, the aura was balanced with yin and yang, and the essence of the five internal organs was also balanced, and it didn't look like I was injured.
I finally climbed to the turning point of the cave, I couldn't support it, it was difficult to even hold the rope, and my brain became more and more confused. Fortunately, this place can stand people, and I have no other way, while I can still move, I use a rope to wrap around my chest under my armpit, tie myself, and then hit the stone wall with the handle of the dagger......
I couldn't even tell how many times I had knocked myself, I was already in a semi-comatose state, the endless darkness pressing down on me, and my body gradually numb. I couldn't feel the snow at all, it looked like it was worse than me, I didn't expect something like a conch to be so scary.
There seemed to be a voice in my ears that Lin Mei had changed, this sound lifted my spirits, I can't just fall asleep like this, otherwise I may never wake up again, so what should Lin Mei do?
"No, you can't just fall asleep like that!" A strong sense of care, responsibility, and deep love made me stubbornly resist the darkness that was pressing on all sides, and barely maintained a trace of sobriety. After a while, I felt the rope tied to my chest tighten, and my body began to hang in the air and shake, it should be Lin Mei pulling me up.
After about a few minutes, I thought of a question, I have always weighed more than one hundred and twenty pounds, Lin Mei is thin and weak, and the rope is very thin, how can I pull it? I kind of regretted that I shouldn't have tied the rope to my body, in case Lin Meila couldn't stop and even she would fall......
I was extremely worried, and I didn't know where Liliang came from, so I tried my best to keep my eyes open, raised my hands, and grabbed my hands when I saw a prominent place on the stone wall, and my feet pushed on the stone wall with all my might. I can barely feel my hands and feet moving, but my eyes tell me that they are moving, and I don't know how effective I am doing this, but as long as I can reduce a little weight for Lin Mei, it is also haode, I only have this thought.
I have been persevering, trying, maybe my efforts are not very effective, but this persistence has never completely made me unconscious, and my body has not been completely numb. I don't know how long it took, but I heard Lin Mei's voice clearly: "Big brother, are you talking...... Brother Xuanming......"
I couldn't make a sound, everything felt like I was in a dream, I could feel the rope rising very slowly, it took a while to rise a little bit, which proved that Lin Mei's strength had run out and couldn't pull me. For Lin Mei, every pull is very difficult, but now she has pulled a distance of nearly 100 meters!
After a long, long time, I finally saw the natural light, and my spirit was lifted a little, and I tried harder to hook the rough parts of the stone wall to borrow strength. Eventually, one of my hands landed on the edge of the hole, and one of Lin Mei's hands immediately grabbed my wrist tightly.
I tried to open my eyes wide and saw Lin Mei's slender hand holding my wrist, the tiger's mouth and index finger were already blurred with blood, and blood was flowing down my wrist. Looking further up, there was a pale face with tears in its eyes.
A strong emotion hit my chest, and this emotion seemed to make me feel extra liliang again, and let out a hoarse voice: "I, it's okay......"
Tears welled up in Lin Mei's eyes again, dripping down but hitting my face and flowing into my mouth, but I was already so numb that I couldn't bear the taste. We worked together, and she finally pulled me up, and when I reached the ground, I was so relaxed that I could no longer support myself, and fell into the infinite darkness, as if I was sinking into a bottomless abyss.
I don't know how long it took, but I felt some warm and peaceful smell coming from the hall, which I was familiar with, but I couldn't remember what it was. I gradually regained my senses, I felt someone dragging my body, and then I felt a slight warmth in my body, and my consciousness became clearer and clearer.
I opened my eyes slightly, and immediately closed my eyes by the strong sunlight, I turned my head and slowly opened my eyes, and saw Lin Mei lying next to me, her eyes closed, her face was frighteningly pale, and one hand held the relic and pressed it on my forehead. It turned out that after I fell unconscious, she had no choice but to press a relic on my forehead, and later probably found that I was very cold, and dragged me out to bask in the sun.
I sat up in a hurry, feeling a little weak, my body was still not very neat, but the paralysis had basically disappeared, and maybe the strong sunlight could remove the yin poison from my body. I touched Lin Mei's forehead, her body temperature was normal, but her breathing was not very stable, I pressed her pulse again, I felt that the pulse was beating very fast, it seemed that she was overexerting herself and was exhausted and unconscious.
My eyes fell on her palm, and my heart trembled, her whole palm was a little red and swollen, her index finger and tiger mouth were severely worn out, the tender flesh was turned out, there were some wounds on the middle finger, and there were many strangulation marks on the forearm...... My tears flowed out, how much courage and perseverance does Lin Mei need to persevere until she pulls me up!
I took out a clean dress from the bamboo basket, tore off the strips of cloth and carefully bandaged her two hands, only then did I find that there were some tight marks on her waist, and when I lifted the clothes, I saw that there were several bruises on her abdomen, extending to both sides of the waist.
I didn't know that she weishenme also injured her abdomen, but fortunately I brought a tea tree oil and beeswax ointment, which has a special effect on redness, swelling and bruising, and applied some gentle rubbing to her.
Her waist was thin, her abdomen was flat, she had no fat at all, and her skin was firm and silky, but I had nothing but pity at this time, and I didn't think anything else.
The strong sunlight can indeed eliminate the yin poison in my body, and during the time I treated Lin Mei's wounds, I felt much better, and my movements were no longer affected, but I felt weak and powerless. I couldn't figure out how the strangulation marks on Lin Mei's abdomen came out, so I went into the cave to take a look.
A short rope was attached to a large rock near the cave, and the long rope I had tied to my body was wrapped around a stalagmite-like rock. I immediately understood, Lin Mei was afraid that she wouldn't be able to pull me and both of us would fall, so she tied a rope around her waist and put the other end on the stone, and when she couldn't hold me down, she used her slender waist to pull the weight of the two of us! She pulled the rope around me and walked around the stalagmite, which made it more difficult, but it guaranteed that I was one step closer to the hole with each lap, that I wouldn't slide any more, and that she would get a chance to rest.
With Lin Mei's physical strength, she would never be able to pull me up directly, but with her amazing perseverance, extraordinary calmness and wisdom, she still pulled me up. In other words, I would have panicked at that time, and I wouldn't have thought of preventive measures at all and started pulling directly, but she thought of it, and fortunately she had preventive measures before she started pulling, otherwise I would have been buried at the bottom of the cave with her now.
I walked outside, laboriously picked up her upper body, hugged her tightly in my arms, and looked at her pale face and the wounds on her hands, and my eyes flowed uncontrollably.
After a while, Lin Mei's eyes moved a few times, and she suddenly tried to sit up, but found that it was in my arms, so she let out a long breath.
"You...... Why are you crying? Lin Mei asked in surprise.
"You were crying just now." I smiled.
Lin Mei also smiled, we looked at each other calmly like this, we didn't need to say anything more, we had already valued each other's lives more than ourselves in our hearts, and that was enough.
I can't sense the light snow at all, which makes me worry and lost, will it just disappear? I suddenly realized that I cared about it, and although I didn't know where to put it, it didn't affect the weight of it in my heart, which I didn't usually realize until now that I was about to lose it, and I panicked.
Who would have thought that in such a cave that didn't look very dangerous, a small strange insect almost killed me, and it might even kill Xiaoxue. I was depressed and frightened, and I couldn't take anything lightly in the future, because what was truly deadly might not seem powerful, and everyone could only die once......
I told Lin Mei about the distress below, and Zuihou said: "Now I feel much better, the sun can detoxify, if you didn't pull me out, I would have died inside." ”
Lin Mei's face flushed a little, and she showed a very happy smile: "You must have eaten too much, so it's so heavy." ”
I sweated profusely, I was just a normal weight, it was Lin Mei herself who was too light. In fact, she has also gained weight in the past few days, but her physique has not fully recovered, and she belongs to a petite woman, and Liliang is not big.
"That monster, it didn't hit you, weishenme you will get hurt?" Lin Mei asked me.
I shook my head, I was sure that the sand spewed out by the monster didn't hit me, and the black gas spewed out by the monster didn't have any obvious smell, it didn't look like poisonous gas, so I didn't know what was going on, I had to go back and ask Master about it.
