Chapter 114: The Last Line of Defense
"Alright, you don't have to ask about these inconsequential things anymore, everyone pack up and get ready to leave." Mai Lao saw that the scene was a little rigid, and he hurriedly came forward to solve the siege.
But I'm wondering, several of us are interrogating Chang Shan, only Mai Lao didn't say a word, doesn't he want to know Chang Shan's life experience? Or does he already know something about Changshan? These things seem to be ordinary on the surface, but when you look closely, there are indeed many problems.
But now is indeed not the time to delve into it, we are still in danger, everything has to wait until we are out of danger, and I know very well in my heart that since we have provoked the matter today, we will have to be on guard in the future, and the trust that we have just established between each other will have to be greatly reduced.
"Martin, Martin, wake up" Jenny was still there calling for Martin, but unfortunately Martin was lying on the ground motionless like a dead man, and the only evidence that could prove that he was still alive was that he was still breathing, proving that he was breathing.
"Mai Lao, when will he wake up? He's not going to just die, is he? Jenny raised her head, looked at Mai Lao with teary eyes and asked.
Mai Lao didn't answer him, but turned his head and glanced at Jiao Ba, because he couldn't answer at all, this matter can only be answered by Jiao Ba and Chang Shan, this Martin seems to have recovered on the surface, but it still feels a little wrong.
"Don't worry, he can't die, it's just that it's the recovery period, and his soul hasn't returned yet, don't be in a hurry to wake him up, if you wake him up too soon, he will become crazy." Jiao Ba said impatiently.
"Becoming a madman? This," Jenny asked, not understanding.
"The evil spirit took possession of his body before, and his soul was bound to suffer some damage, and now the evil spirit is gone, but his soul needs to be restored, if the soul is not restored to its place completely, then he will become crazy, like a fool." Jiao Ba explained casually.
"I see, so how do we go now? You can't throw Martin here, can you? Jenny glanced down at Martin again, but this time she looked at Martin with a strange gaze, and I also accidentally found it again, usually she has a selfless affection for Martin, but this time, I saw a strange gaze, only for a moment, and disappeared.
"Mai Lao, what do you say?" Jiao Ba asked him, at this critical moment, he had to be counted on to get an idea.
Mai Lao looked at everyone, then at Martin who was unconscious, and finally sighed helplessly, "Wait a minute, he has such a big physique, he can't carry him on his back." ”
We stood around Martin, in a small circle, guarding him at the same time, but also guarding the surrounding environment, especially the white snowman soldiers, I always felt that they had been staring at us, Changshan's words had been circling in my mind, they might really come back to life, but it was not time yet, Martin was suddenly possessed, maybe it was not a coincidence, it was probably just a fuse for everything.
Actually, we wanted to leave immediately, but Martin was still in a coma, and with Martin's general physique, no one except the big man could carry him on his back, and each of us was exhausted, even if it was difficult for two people to help him up.
This Martin at a critical moment, can really add to the chaos, Jiao Ba and Chang Shan for him, all the left palm is injured, even if the knife is not deep, it is also a knife wound, in this environment, can only increase his own burden, his own pain, directly affect our entire team, although this matter does not blame Martin, but I have to admit that the words he said when he went crazy before are likely to be what he thought in his heart.
Now Li Xin is not in good health and needs someone to protect her, Jenny still has a leg injury, and she needs someone to carry her, Lao Shui and Xiaofeng are also in poor physical condition, they don't have any strength at all, they are completely weak.
At present, the physical condition is still intact, only me and Mai Lao are left, my toss along the way, but also consumed a lot of physical strength, there are wounds on the head, and the power of the magic circle has made me suffer mental torture, on the surface, I am in good condition, but in fact I am not much stronger than them, but there is no serious injury that is too hard.
Our team, the road is getting more and more difficult, the injured personnel, has accounted for more than half, and only Mai Lao is the most intact, he so far, should not have suffered any hard injuries, at most it consumes some physical strength, this old guy is really powerful, can remain intact in this environment, this is not at all ordinary people can do, but unfortunately no matter how powerful he is, he can't guarantee everyone's thoughtfulness.
"Brother Yi, what's wrong with you? What do you think? Jiao Ba saw that I was alone there with a wry smile and asked softly.
I sighed and said, "It's been a tough road for us, and there are more and more wounded, and we don't know if we can get out of this place." ”
Jiao Ba said indifferently, "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and if you want to drive somewhat, it's no big deal." ”
"Eighth, I'm a little puzzled, why is Martin possessed by evil while the rest of us are okay?" I wanted to ask him about this, but I didn't have time to speak.
Jiao Ba shook his head and said, "I don't understand, it stands to reason that women are yin, and their physique is naturally the weakest, and they must not be compared with men, even if the evil spirit is possessed, it should start with Jenny and Li Xin first, but who knows that it has found Martin, which is really difficult to understand." ”
"The reason why Martin will be possessed has a certain relationship with himself, the possession of evil spirits, not only possession and women, although women belong to yin, but this does not mean that women are parasites of evil spirits, everyone's physique is different, women are also tough, men are also weak, this is not only to look at the appearance, but also to look at the heart, I can understand, and that's all." Chang Shan said in a low voice.
Jiao Ba sneered instead, "That's right, but... Brother Changshan, in fact, I understand what you said, can you say something practical? Why was Martin possessed by an evil spirit? ”
"I said, I only know so much, I don't have to lie, I don't know, I just don't know." Chang Shan glanced at him and said impatiently.
"Could it be to stall for time?" It occurred to me that Martin was possessed, probably to stall for time, but I can't say what the reason was, but it just felt that the clues were vague.
"There is a possibility that it must have something to do with these snowman soldiers." As Chang Shan spoke, he turned his head and glanced at the soldiers on both sides.
"Snow Demon, it must be a Snow Demon, the evil spirit that possesses Martin must be the soul of the Snow Demon, haven't you noticed? The white silk that had been floating before was actually a dead soul, and they floated around the Yeti soldiers and disappeared, and Martin was possessed by an evil spirit, just to delay time and prevent us from leaving here. Jiao Ba stared and said with some horror.
"So... Ever since we entered here, the Snow Demon's soul has been released by the wizards? Chang Shan asked with a side face.
Jiao Ba squinted his eyes and said with a thief's look, "That's right, this is the enchantment, the wizard can control our every move, and this is probably the place to break the magic circle, but in order to stop us, the wizard released the soul of this snow demon, this ghost thing is more terrifying than the ice demon." ”
"Well, this is probably their last line of defense, as long as we break through the snow demon level, we will definitely be able to reach the location of the coffin." Chang Shan nodded and said approvingly.
"If that's what you say, then the snow demon should be resurrected, but these snowman soldiers don't react." I hurriedly asked, feeling that Jiao Ba's words made sense, but why delay?
"Snow demons are not humans, after the soul returns, they will not wake up immediately like humans, they will need a certain amount of time, and they will have to use external forces to wake them up, this time it's too bad, we have been here for a long time, we can't stay any longer, we have to leave quickly." Jiao Ba spoke, picked up his backpack and was about to leave.
Mai Laoyi pressed his shoulder, "Wait, let's go, what should he do." Old man Mai tilted, obviously talking about Martin.
Jiao Ba stared at Mai Lao, and said after a few seconds, "Mai Lao, don't say I'm ruthless, I've done my best, I almost hung up in order to save Martin, and now the situation is very critical, we can't let all of us take risks for him alone, right?" ”
"Then we can't throw him here, if that soldier is really a snow demon, we will leave him here, once the snow demon is resurrected, then he will definitely die." Mai Lao said in a pleading tone, although it was not obvious, I still heard it.
I didn't expect Mai Lao to be so proud, sometimes I see that he hates Martin very much, and even dislikes Martin, but at this moment of life and death, Mai Lao is Mai Lao, and he really won't leave anyone behind.
It reminds me of the scene where he once saved me, every time he faced danger, even in the face of death, he was fearless, no matter how great his skills were, but if he didn't want to save you, who could say anything?
No matter what is hidden behind Mai Lao, but at least he is a qualified leader, he will not abandon his soldiers and run for his life alone, this alone, I still admire him very much, in our group, only he makes me respect the most, and at the same time makes me doubt the most, this is really a very contradictory heart.
"I'm sorry Mai Lao, everyone has their own lives, and there is only so much I can help him, Brother Yi, let's go." Jiao Ba shook his head at me, it seemed that he had made up his mind this time.
