Chapter Ninety-Nine: Escape
Kong Sanye ran forward for a few steps, and was tripped by the weeds by the creek and fell to the ground. This fall, although not very heavy, also affected the speed. A few of us hurriedly went over to help him up and continued to run.
"Qiangzi, you go to the front to explore the way first, Kong Sanye's foot is twisted, and I and the big head take turns carrying him." After helping Kong Sanye up, Datuan noticed Kong Sanye's injury and shouted loudly at me.
Now is not the time to fight, watching more and more blood Gu worms flying towards this side through the thick smoke behind me, I nodded at the big group and ran straight forward.
Although Datuan and Datou took turns to run on their backs to Kong Sanye, they were not much different from my speed, if I were carrying Kong Sanye on my back, it was estimated that I would be chased by the blood Gu worms behind me at this time.
I glanced back at the big head and the big group, and found that their speed was not slow, so I also relieved my mind and ran forward. After running for a few hundred meters, he suddenly stopped and took several steps back.
Just now, he just cared about running forward, forgetting to look at the surrounding terrain, and didn't pay attention to the nearby sounds, his mind was all on the blood Gu worm. At this time, I came across another waterfall, about seven or eight meters high, and a loud sound reminded its existence. I almost fell straight off the edge of the cliff above, if I hadn't stopped in time.
"Hadron, what's going on?" Seeing me retreating with the big head of Kong Sanye on his back, he shouted at me loudly, and the sound of the waterfall almost drowned out his voice.
"There is a waterfall in front, about seven or eight meters high, big head, rope ladder, hurry up and throw it to me." I shouted loudly to the big head in the back, hoping that he would quickly throw the rope ladder over and we could go down the rope ladder.
The rope ladder was not on the big head, but inside the large group's backpack. Datuan took out the rope ladder from his backpack as he ran, and he didn't even have time to pick up the few small bags of food in his backpack.
"Hadron, rope ladder." The big group threw the rope ladder directly towards me.
Maybe our luck was too bad, we made a mistake in the busyness, the big group threw the rope ladder too hard, and I was not in a good position. I watched the large group of rope ladders thrown directly into the air and fell into the waterfall.
For a moment, several of us were a little dumbfounded. Now if you make a rope ladder again, it will definitely be too late, and the blood Gu worms behind you are getting closer and closer.
If we take a detour, it will be even worse, if we run in the jungle, our speed will only be slower, and we will soon be caught up by those blood Gu worms.
"Qiangzi, don't be stunned, hurry up and dig the rope." The big head ran towards me with Kong Sanye behind me, shouting loudly.
Hearing the shouts of the big head, I quickly took out the rope from my backpack and prepared to fix it to the tree, but there were some small trees around, and none of them could withstand our weight. I tried to find a big rock, but I found nothing, and for a while I remember sweating in my head.
The big head carried Kong Sanye on his back, and he had already come to my side with the big group, and the blood Gu worms over there were getting closer and closer. Kong Sanye glanced at the deep pool below the waterfall, then looked at the blood Gu worm behind him, and said loudly to me: "Qiangzi, don't look for it, there's no time, let's jump down." ”
I had some suspicions that my ears had heard it wrong, and I looked at Kong Sanye suspiciously. Kong Sanye was a little anxious, and shouted loudly at me: "That's right, jump down, now it's only like this, if you don't jump, we will all die here." Remember to jump to the very center and stick your body straight into the water, with your feet in the water first, to protect your head. ”
Kong Sanye said very quickly, and looked at the blood Gu worms behind him as he spoke. The Blood Gu Worm was already only ten meters away from us, and it could surround us in the blink of an eye.
"Qiangzi, you get out of the way, I'll come first." Seeing that I was not moving, the group pulled me aside, threw my backpack down first, and then took a deep breath and jumped straight towards the deep pool of the waterfall.
The water splashed in the deep pool below, and the mass had already jumped in. He was born in the river and is familiar with the nature of water, so we don't have to worry, the biggest worry is that the pool is not deep enough, and it may hurt if you go down.
After a few seconds, the large group surfaced, pulled the backpack and swam to the shore, making a safe gesture towards us, pointing to the middle of the pool and indicating where we jumped.
When we saw that the big group was safe, we breathed a sigh of relief. The second one to jump was Kong Sanye, and the two of us and I helped throw the backpack on his body first. Kong Sanye's foot was sprained before, and now he can't exert much strength, so I and the big head pushed Kong Sanye in the back, so that Kong Sanye had enough strength to jump to the middle of the pool of water.
After Kong Sanye went down, Datuan hurriedly entered the pool, pulled Kong Sanye and the two backpacks to the shore together, checked up and down, and after finding that it was okay, he motioned for me and the two of them to jump.
The blood Gu worm behind him had already arrived at his side, and the big head and I glanced at each other and decided to jump down together. At the same time, he threw the backpack on his body directly.
"One, two, three, jump." I counted three times at the same time as the big head, and as soon as the word "jump" was shouted, we both jumped forward at the same time, and when I was in the air, I quickly reached the point that my arm hurt a little, it should be a blood Gu worm that bit my arm.
After Datuan saw me and Datou falling into the water together, he put Kong Sanye aside, hurriedly swam to the middle and dragged me and Datou's backpacks to the shore. I was bitten by the blood Gu worm, and I began to feel dizzy, but fortunately, I jumped into the water, and the cold water stimulated me, and I suddenly sobered up a lot.
After I arrived at the shore, I didn't do anything, and when I saw Kong Sanye, I said directly to him: "Kong Sanye, I was bitten by a blood Gu worm, and the wound is here." After finishing speaking, he showed the bite wound to Kong Sanye.
After Kong Sanye saw the marks on my arm, he grabbed my arm and pinched it around the wound hard. I was about to fight as hard as I could, when I saw something coming out of the wound. That thing is the Blood Gu Worm, the Blood Gu Worm that was small before, and the boss who has swelled at this time seems to have sucked a lot of blood from me.
After the blood Gu worm was squeezed out, Kong Sanye directly put it on the stone on the shore and smashed it, and then took out the bottle of liquid that he gave to the archaeologist last time from the soaked backpack and asked me to drink it.
I took the bottle of liquid, and without thinking about it, I just poured it down. It doesn't taste great, but now is not the time to care. The last time the archaeologist was bitten by this blood Gu worm, he had a high fever that didn't go away, and it was this thing that made him get better. I don't have time for a high fever right now, I have to be in the best shape and ready to run for my life.
After we jumped down, the group of blood Gu worms seemed to have lost their target, hovering in the sky all the time, not chasing them down. It also gave us a sigh of relief, and at the same time bought us a certain amount of time to continue running for our lives.
Ignoring the ** clothes on the body, Da Tuan and Datou continued to pick up Kong Sanye and ran with the backpack, I picked up the rope ladder and stuffed it into the backpack and followed closely.
After running for about half an hour, when we were sure that there were no blood Gu worms chasing after us, a few of us sat down to rest. When I sat down, I felt very hot and uncomfortable, and my head was very dizzy.
"Hadron son, are you okay?" The big head saw that I was a little abnormal, came over and touched my forehead and asked. Big Head's hands were cold, and it made my hot forehead feel a little comfortable. It's just that as soon as the big head's hand touched my forehead, he immediately took it away, and at the same time shouted loudly to Kong Sanye: "Kong Sanye, come and take a look, the strong son has a fever, and the heat is scary." ”
When the big head finished shouting, my consciousness was a little less sober, but I vaguely remembered that the big group helped Kong Sanye to quickly surround me, and his mouth moved as if he was saying this, but I couldn't hear it at all, and then I didn't remember anything.
Next, I had a dream in which I had entered the three-phase tomb again. He was alone, and Datuan Datou and Kong Sanye were not around.
I saw another "me", holding a knife and a cold knife confronting each other, and I was startled and hurriedly hid in the dark. But it didn't seem to be useful, the cold knife and the "me" smiled weirdly at me at the same time, and then both knives attacked my side at the same time.
I had only one thought in my mind, which was to run, and when I turned around, I ran towards a cemetery, and I didn't have a flashlight, nothing. After just a few steps, I felt empty under my feet and fell directly into the water.
With such stimulation, I sat up and realized that I was dreaming. The big head was next to me, still holding the kettle, watching me sit up, and shouted excitedly over there: "Datuan, Kong Sanye, wake up, Qiangzi is awake." ”
Hearing the shouts of the big head, Datuan helped Kong Sanye and walked over. Kong Sanye pulled one of my arms, touched the pulse, and then said with a sigh of relief: "It's okay." ”
After Kong Sanye finished speaking, Datuan and Datou also breathed a sigh of relief. The big head handed me the half bottle of water, and I took a sip before taking a look at my surroundings.
Then I noticed that we were supposed to be in a cave, the cave was not very large, but it could accommodate the four of us, and there was a fire burning in the middle, and it was dark all around, and it should have been dark outside.
"Big head, how long have I been sleeping, what about the blood Gu worm?" Suddenly thinking of the blood Gu worms outside, I asked with some eagerness towards the big head.
"Hadron, don't worry, the blood Gu worm didn't chase after you. Strange to say, the blood Gu worm seemed to be afraid of something below, and didn't dare to chase it down. "I was relieved to hear that the blood worm hadn't come down, at least we were safe now.
"Okay, Qiangzi, go to sleep when you are weak, and I will take turns keeping vigil with the big head tonight." Da Tuan also sat down and said to me, Kong Sanye has already fallen asleep over there. He's already old, and he sprained his foot today, so he needs to rest.
I didn't say anything, just said a simple word of hard work to them, and then went to the place where I had just laid down and continued to sleep. I was a little dizzy, and I sat in a nightmare, but now after lying down, I feel very sleepy, and it didn't take long for me to sleep deeply.
This time, I finally had a good night's sleep, and I didn't have a dream, and the sky was dawn. After I got up, I felt a hundred times more energetic, and I don't know how much better than yesterday.
Over there, Kong Sanye had just gotten up and was loading the things on the ground into his backpack. Yesterday a lot of things in the backpack were wet, and the few of them took them out and put them by the fire to dry. I went over to help Kong Sanye and put all those things into my backpack one by one.
"Hadron, how are you feeling today?" Kong Sanye saw me coming over to help and asked me.
I smiled at Kong Sanye and said, "I feel very good, I feel like I can kill a cow with one punch." ”
As I was talking, Datuan and Datou came in from outside, and they were still carrying my ten-pound plastic pot in their hands. My pot of water had been sitting for a long time, and they went outside to the creek to get a new one.
"Third Master Kong, can you drink the water in the stream outside?" I asked Kong Sanye with some doubts, there are no animals in this forest, so I don't know if the water will be okay if I drink it.
