Chapter 63: Caught in the Swamp

Due to the stumbling under my feet just now, I suddenly rushed into the deeper position of the quagmire, and Lantern Xiao stood on the ridge and reached out, but he couldn't catch me at all. So he walked down cautiously, but just after taking two steps into the mud, his feet sank into the mud.

Lantern Xiao's expression changed, and he hurriedly retreated, I was also taken aback, if Lantern Xiao was also trapped, it would be really over, even if Anaduo could be saved, but it would be too late, and the two of us would probably only be able to survive one by then.

At this point, my body was still descending, and the mud was almost reaching my chest. As the mud moved upward, I began to feel a palpable sense of oppression, and I couldn't help but increase the strength of my breathing. I knew that once the heavy mud reached my chest, I would have trouble breathing, and Lantern Xiao shouted from above, "Zhuo Ran, hold on, I'll come to save you right away!" ”

I didn't bother to answer Lantern Xiao's words, and at this time, a strong sense of fear gradually hit me, and the mud had begun to spread to my chest. If I sank, the mud would fill my mouth and lungs, and I would suffocate to death, and the process would be extremely painful, and I would probably become food for those deformed fish in the future, and I couldn't help but shudder at the thought of it.

The pressure in my chest became more and more intense, and I felt like I had to use all my strength with every breath. I wanted to urge the Lantern Festival to hurry up, but I found that I opened my mouth, but I couldn't make a sound at all. A sense of hopelessness and powerlessness came over me.

At this moment, I suddenly saw that Lantern Xiao threw something over, but although my arms were still outside, my range of motion was very limited. I took a closer look, and the thing thrown by the Lantern Festival turned out to be a tied knot, and it seemed that the Lantern Festival meant to let me grab the rope and pull me up. But Lantern Xiao's eyes and accuracy are really bad, I stretched out my arms and tried hard, but I still couldn't catch it.

And not only that, but because of my rash movement, I instantly sank again, and the mud suddenly overflowed my chest. At this time, I could clearly smell the stench of mud, which made me gag for a while, but the squeezing of the large amount of mud around my body made me unable to vomit even if I wanted to.

I held my breath, and after a long time, I only spit out two words: "Hurry up!" ”

Lantern Xiao hurriedly pulled the rope back, "Hold on!" As he spoke, he threw the rope over again, this time the Lantern Festival was very accurate, and the knot hit my hand at once, and I held it in my hand.

I couldn't help but feel excited in my heart, and Lantern Xiao also yelled: "Okay! Immediately after that, Lantern Xiao wrapped the rope around his waist, and his body began to lean back, "Zhuo Ran, you hold on!" I'll pull you up now! ”

But I didn't expect that the knot tied on the head of the rope during the Lantern Festival became very slippery due to a lot of mud and muddy water. I couldn't hold it at all, and as soon as I pulled the Lantern Festival hard, the knot of the rope would slip off in my hand.

A few times later, my body began to sink further due to the shaking of the knot slipping, and at this point, the mud almost touched my chin.

I hurriedly grabbed the knot again, and Lantern Xiao also quickly pulled the other end, this time he didn't dare to pull harder, he could only maintain a relatively moderate force, so that we just maintained a balance, I couldn't sink it, but I couldn't pull it up.

Although I haven't gotten out of trouble yet, at least I can't die for the time being, which also gives me a breath of relief.

Just as my spirit was softening, suddenly there was a loud noise in the distance, and my heart, which had just been calmed down, suddenly hung up again. I wanted to turn my head and follow the prestige, but now my body was firmly trapped, and the angle of my neck twist was completely insufficient. I tried a few times and almost dislocated my neck, so I had to give up.

However, the Lantern Festival opposite me panicked instantly, and jumped up suddenly, "Zhuo Ran, hurry up, I'll pull you up!" Fast! Fast! Then he shouted to Anador next to him, "Quick, help!" Tie another rope into a circle, and still give it to Zhuoran! Fast! ”

At this time, Anado looked blankly in the direction behind me, and her face also became pale, and when she heard Lantern Xiao's command, she hurriedly agreed, and at the same time picked up another rope and began to prepare.

I saw the two of them and knew that something must be wrong, so I turned my head again, and this time, with my peripheral vision, I noticed that in the direction behind me, the mud that had been gushing out just now had reappeared, but this time it was indeed in the direction it was heading.

I was suddenly shocked, I was in this situation now, and there was no possibility of even hiding. I immediately grabbed the knot of the Lantern Festival in front of me again and grabbed it with all my strength. Lantern Xiao looked in my direction, "I pulled it!" Then, pull the rope hard again. At this time, the knot was still slippery, and my physical strength was also very much reduced at this time, in this case, I felt even more powerless.

So, the full force of the Lantern Festival only lifted me up a distance of less than ten centimeters, and the knot came off again. I heard the sound of mud gushing out from behind me, getting closer and closer, like the approach of death. This makes me anxious!

And Lantern Xiao also wiped the sweat on his face, threw the knot over again, gestured to me, and pointed to his mouth, "Bite it!" Bite the knot in your mouth!! ”

I nodded immediately, this is a good way, at this time, the bite force of the person is much greater than the grip of the hand, at this time I don't care about the mud on the knot, I threw it into my mouth and bit hard.

Suddenly, a wet and salty taste spread in my mouth, and I remembered that the parasitic strange fish might have crawled out of the mud, and I immediately felt a wave of nausea. But in order to survive, I still bit desperately, and the Lantern Festival leaned back as much as possible, pulling me up as hard as I could, and I felt that my gums were pulled off quickly.

The quagmire here seems to have a special suction, and every time I am pulled upwards a little distance, I will be greatly resisted. Soon, my cheeks were sore, and I felt like my saliva was starting to run down uncontrollably. Gradually, I felt that my face had begun to wooden, and I could no longer control my mouth, and in an instant the knot blurted out of my mouth.

The Lantern Festival was being forced, and as soon as I let go, the Lantern Festival was suddenly shaken with a big heel and rolled upside down several times. To make matters worse, I had just been pulled up a little distance, and I was rapidly falling back down. My hands were desperately trying to get up, but the slippery mud had no place to draw on it.

A series of mud jets behind me were approaching me, and I could almost conclude that there must be something hidden under the gushing mud, and I also thought about it now, those strange fish gathered in the past, and nine times out of ten they were also eaten by the things underground, and there seemed to be some kind of cooperative relationship between the life forms inside those parasitic fish and the monsters below the swamp, and those parasites were thinking about the things below the swamp to provide food, but they didn't know what benefits they would get from the big guys under the swamp.

I gritted my teeth hard, this was not the time to analyze this, otherwise, I would soon be food for that guy under the swamp!

I was thinking about it when suddenly I saw a rope loop flying in my direction. And impartiality just fits right on my head. I looked up and saw that Lantern Festival had not yet gotten up from the ground, and Anado was holding on to a rope and looking at me nervously. As soon as he saw that it was on my neck, he immediately shouted, "Hold on! ”

My expression changed, and I just wanted to speak, "Wait ......"

But before I finished speaking, Anador pulled the rope hard, and the rope loop on my head suddenly shrunk and wrapped around my neck, and I quickly grabbed the rope with my hand to prevent it from tightening on my neck and strangling me to death!

At this time, Lantern Festival got up, and when he saw this scene, he immediately shouted: "Damn!!" What are you doing! Strangled him? ”

I thought Lantern Festival would help me untie the rope from my neck, but after he glanced behind me, his expression changed drastically, "Forget it, it's too late!" Pull it up! With that, he threw the rope to Anado, threw the knotted rope to me again, and yelled at me, "Quick!! Bite and try again! If you don't work this time, tomorrow and today will be your anniversary! ”

The second half of the Lantern Festival scared me all over my body, so I quickly stuffed the knot into my mouth and bit it hard again.

Lantern Xiao and Anadot began to work together, this time not only did their mouths bear considerable pull, but even my neck was pulled up desperately by Anado, and one of my hands grabbed the rope around my neck. In this way, some of the excessive burden on the neck is reduced. I'm really worried that if I try too hard, I will strain my fragile cervical spine, and if I really get a high paraplegia, it will be miserable!

However, I could clearly realize that the thing under the swamp was much closer than it was earlier. Lantern Festival and Anado will also be a last resort, although it is risky to fight, but to survive, if you hesitate a little longer, I am afraid it is time to go down the mountain to prepare for my memorial service.

As the saying goes, it's better to die than to live, but at this time, I'd rather be pulled into a paraplegic than die here now.

What gives me comfort is that before my neck was broken, this way of saving me worked, and the strength of two people is greater than one person after all. However, it was so funny that I could imagine being rescued now, I was pulled out of a noose around my neck with a rope in my mouth, and I was the kind of croaking animal!
