Chapter 185: Crises Repeatedly
Since Lantern Xiao couldn't see the situation below, if I was pulled up by him like this, it would be equivalent to sending myself directly into the hands of the headless stone statue.
I immediately yelled at it, "Stop!!" Lantern Festival! Stop it!!!! But the people above didn't seem to hear me, and the rope was still moving up little by little. Seeing myself getting closer and closer to the hole where the headless stone statue was, I was helpless. I could only shout at the top over and over again, and my voice was almost hoarse. Just when I was less than ten centimeters away from the entrance of the cave, the rope finally stopped.
At this point, I could already see the headless stone statue standing at the entrance of the cave, and I believe it could sense my presence as well. I tried to keep my breath down and leaned down slightly along the rope. However, the headless stone statue didn't seem to move, just stood there dumbfounded!
We are stuck here like this, the stone statue does not move, I dare not move, and they do not dare to pull up during the Lantern Festival. However, after a while, my hands and feet felt sore, and with the pain under my ribs, I knew that the only result of such a stalemate would be for me to die of exhaustion!
I had to quickly come up with a solution, and just as I was distracted, the headless stone statue above suddenly struck, and it was so fast that I didn't have time to react. The headless statue's hand grasped my climbing rope with unmistakable accuracy. Seeing this scene, my heart suddenly felt cold, I know, this is over!
I watched in horror as the headless stone statue grabbed the rope and pulled it up little by little. I can't do anything now, I have only two options left, first, let go now and cut myself off. Second, be pulled up by the headless stone statue and die in an unknown way! Either way is unacceptable to me.
Just when I was desperate, I suddenly noticed a flashlight not far from my upper left. I didn't react for a while, thinking it was an illusion of myself under pressure, but when it flashed again, I was convinced that it wasn't my hallucination, and that there was really someone over there!
Someone came down to save me! This was the first thought that came to my mind, and I couldn't help but feel a burst of ecstasy. I straightened up and looked in that direction. Then the surrounding light lit up, and I saw a figure with a rope tied to it, climbing on the cliff face over there.
By this point, I was getting closer and closer to the headless statue, and it only had to pull twice, and it could grab me with a single stretch of its hand.
I hurriedly shouted, "Who's over there, save me!" It's too late! ”
As soon as I finished speaking, I saw the figure move, and then a voice came, "Catch me!" "It's Wenmo's voice!! Thankfully, I knew I was saved!!
The rapid alternation of life and death makes my heart surge, and tears involuntarily burst out of my eyes, not only because of joy and crying, not just because of the impermanence of life and death, but also because of a physiological reaction of the human body, crying is a way of pressure and emotional release evolved by human beings, and the effect is remarkable.
I responded loudly in a trembling voice, "Okay! Before I could finish the word, Wen Mo had already swung over at once, grabbed my clothes and pulled me over. At the same time, I reached out and grabbed his climbing rope. Due to this inertia, the two of us swung high in the air at once, and instantly moved away from the headless stone statue.
Wen Mo pushed me up hard, "Climb up, step on my shoulder!" ”
"This," I felt very useless, dragging Wenmo to risk coming down to save me, and now I still had to step on his shoulder, and I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. At this time, the climbing rope has reached the highest point and is falling back.
Seeing that I hesitated, Wen Mo shouted loudly: "Quick! Don't hesitate! ”
I nodded quickly, and at this time, I didn't care about the pain under my ribs, so I grabbed the climbing rope hard, climbed up with the help of Wenmo, and stepped on Wenmo's shoulder.
I turned my head to look over and saw that we were rapidly approaching the entrance to the cave where the headless stone statue was located as the rope fell. It's frightening that the stone statue is spreading its arms, ready to grab us.
I couldn't help but curse and ask the question that had always puzzled me: "How did this monster find out about our existence!" ”
Wen Mo opened his mouth and said, "It's a change in airflow!" ”
Seeing that we were about to return to the arms of the headless stone statue, I exclaimed, "Boss, what should we do?" ”
Wen Mo shouted in a low voice: "Hold on! Then, just as we approached the cliff, we kicked hard. The rope made an arc again, leaping far in front of the hole. It's so exciting, it's like a trapeze in an acrobatic show, and my nervous heart is about to jump out!
Just as we were jumping over the cave, Wenmo shouted loudly to the top: "Pull hard!" ”
Immediately after, I felt the rope being pulled up quickly, much faster than I had just pulled it. Apparently the people above are also aware of the danger and are doing their best.
By the time we swung up with the rope and came back down, we were already above the hole. This time, no matter how powerful the headless stone statue is, it is beyond the reach of the whip. My hanging heart finally fell, and as soon as my whole body relaxed, the pain in my whole body immediately hit, and there were bursts of throbbing pain under my ribs, and I don't know if the injury will get worse. I took out one hand to look at it, and the palm of my hand had been rubbed off a layer of skin, and blood and tissue fluid were oozing out, and it looked a little blurry and scary. I gritted my teeth and told myself to persevere, after all, I was lucky to be able to get my life back!
I looked down at Wen Mo, he was looking down, and my feet were still on his shoulders, I was a little embarrassed and said, "Boss, I can come down, I can hold on." ”
Wen Mo kept looking down and didn't answer my words, I couldn't help but be a little curious, so I asked, "Boss, what's wrong with you, are you okay?" What are you looking at? ”
Wen Mo waved his hand at me without looking back, "Don't move!" Then he suddenly turned his head and shouted loudly at the top with some nervousness: "Quick! Pull as hard as you can! Fastest speed!! Fast!! ”
I was immediately shocked, we were already far away from the hole where the headless stone statue was, why did Wenmo suddenly become so nervous? I asked curiously, "Boss, what's wrong?" What are you worried about? The headless statue won't catch up, will it? ”
Wen Mo shook his head and pointed to the crack in the cliff wall on the other side, "Look at the water flow again!" I looked in the direction he was pointing, and sure enough, the waterfall that had stopped had stopped reappeared, and the speed of the water seemed to be even more violent than before.
My heart moved, and I said to Wenmo, "But, what does this mean? ”
Wen Mo looked down and said, "It's the white mist, those white mists are about to float up!" That kind of white mist is highly corrosive, if people are surrounded, it will become white bones in less than half an hour! ”
As soon as I heard it, the cold sweat came down, no wonder the second uncle had to wait until the water flow in the crack disappeared, this strong corrosive white mist appeared with the appearance of the water flow. The stone hall that usually underground is hidden in this white mist, which also plays a very good hidden defense function.
I looked hard down into the abyss, but all I saw was darkness. I couldn't help but mutter, "I didn't see any white fog!" ”
Wen Mo took out a cold firework from his bag, raised his hand and threw it down after lighting it up, and I watched the cold fireworks chase straight down. When the cold fireworks passed through the hole where the stone hall was located, I saw a figure still standing there, it was the headless stone statue, I don't know why I saw this lonely figure standing in the abyss, I couldn't help but produce a kind of heroic twilight desolation and tragedy, I couldn't help but have a curiosity in my heart, behind this headless stone statue, what is hidden?
My thoughts flashed, and the cold fireworks continued to fall, and then I saw a large amount of white mist appear under the headless stone statue, and I could clearly see that these white mist were completely different from the water vapor just now. The cold fireworks fell into the white mist like a stone sinking into the sea, and disappeared without even a ripple.
I was taken aback, knowing that what Wenmo said was true, so I quickly turned my head to it and shouted, "Quick!! Pull it up!! ”
At this time, Wenmo and I basically couldn't do anything, so we could only rely on the people above. Actually, to be fair, we're already going up, but I always think it's still the white fog that is going up fast, I don't know if it's my delusion, but I really hope it's my delusion.
The process of rising from here to the top seems to me to be a long and difficult one. Fortunately, Wen Mo and I eventually reached the top of the cliff before those white fogs, and we had a clear advantage.
They pulled us up with all hands and feet, and as soon as my feet hit the ground, I fell to the ground in pain.
The second uncle hurriedly came over and untied his backpack and let me lie flat on the ground. When he saw my fleshy palm, he couldn't help frowning, and shouted to the side: "Team doctor, team doctor!" ”
The team doctor ran over and opened my hand, frowned slightly, and helped me check my ribs, and couldn't help but sigh. Then he pulled out the medicine and bandages from his bag, bandaged me, and re-fixed the position under the ribs.
Mr. Hong walked up to me, looked at me, and nodded, "Awesome, awesome!" Even if someone helps in the end, I didn't expect you to be able to get out of it! As he spoke, he couldn't help but glance at Wenmo. Wen Mo was still staring at him.
Mr. Hong bent down and said, "I guess you must have got the things down there, right?" ”
