Chapter 140—The Calm Before the Storm (2)
Sha Xiaoyan just saw the rock under Chi Mudie's body suddenly fall, and subconsciously grabbed her ankle, but in this narrow tunnel, there was nothing to be done, so she had to shout to Chi Mudie: "Fluttershy, don't move! This cave is too narrow, I don't have the strength to pull you up backwards, I immediately called other people to come and help, now we don't know if the rocks around here will loosen and collapse, if you move, maybe we will both fall." ”
After Sha Xiaoliang finished speaking, he opened his throat and shouted in the direction they came, "Mu Mu, Xiaoxue, Sister Jiu'er, come over and help, Fluttershy...... Fluttershy's going to fall, and I can't hold her anymore!"
Lin Mumu, who was crawling backwards in another tunnel, heard Sha Xiaoling's shout, first stunned slightly, and then shouted in response, rushed out of the tunnel as fast as possible, and quickly crawled towards the tunnel that Chi Mudie and the others entered, and did not forget to shout to Sha Xiaoliang on the way: "Sha Xiaoling, you must not let go of me, if you dare to let go, I will push you down in a while!"
Sand Xiaodie, who was struggling to hold Chi Mudie, couldn't talk back at this time, although she had exhausted all her strength, she was still falling down slowly, and Chi Mudie, who was hanging upside down in mid-air, originally wanted to find some places to climb around, but found that her surroundings were not close to any mountain wall, and the position of Sha Xiaoliang above was just a prominent boulder, and with any slight movement of the two of them, some gravel would roll out of the gap between the boulder and the mountain, and it seemed that there were signs of overall falling off at any time。
Seeing such a critical scene, Chi Mudie hurriedly shouted to the top: "Mu Mu, when you come over, don't get too close, I see that the boulder under Sha Xiao's body has begun to loosen, and there is a possibility of falling off at any time, I think the mountains in this area may be relatively loose, I don't know if there will be continuous collapse, you must be careful when you get close!"
At this time, Lin Mumu, who had already arrived not far behind Sha Xiaoliang, heard Chi Mudie's shout, and quickly stopped not far from Sha Xiaoling, rummaging in his spiritual wrap for a while, and finally found a bundle of white ropes with the thickness of his fingers, and threw one of them towards Sha Xiaoling.
"You wrap the rope around yourself, then throw the other end to Fluttershy and tell her to hold on, and I'll figure out how to pull you up. ”
Sha Xiaoliang heard Lin Mumu say this, but shouted at her angrily: "Lin Mumu, what are you kidding, I am pulling Chi Mudie with both hands now, how do you want me to grab that rope? Do you think I am an octopus and have eight hands? Besides, how can you pull the two of us with such a thin rope!"
Lin Mumu rummaged in the spirit sac again, and explained to Sha Xiaoliang without raising his head: "Don't look at this rope is thin, this is made of snow spider silk, it is extremely tough, and it is also fire-resistant, such a rope is enough to lift an adult one-eyed horned dragon! As for the problem that you said you can't free your hand to get the rope......" Lin Mumu said this, and suddenly showed a sly smile to the sand girl, "I can summon a little thing to help you, but don't be afraid to let go!" ”
After listening to Lin Mumu's words, a trace of ominous premonition suddenly rose in Sha Xiao's heart, and after turning his head with difficulty, he actually found that Lin Mumu summoned a black ball from the spirit summoning stone, and after the ball landed, many wriggling brown knots stretched out from all around, and slowly stretched out the body that was circled into a ball, and it was a black centipede with the thickness of a human arm!
When Sha Xiaoliang saw this centipede, goosebumps appeared all over her body, and when she saw the centipede waving the tentacles on her head, and crawling towards her with the rope on the ground with her mouth, she even trembled in her voice, "Lin Mumu, you ...... Don't you tell me that you're going to let this worm crawl on me? No, I'm afraid of this legged worm!"
Lin Mumu blinked nonchalantly and said, "It's okay, it's okay, although Xiao Xiaohei has poison on his body, but without my order, he won't bite people casually, you just hold Xiao Fluttershy and don't move." ”
So in the next time, Sha Xiaoliang used an expression that was about to cry, gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, and let the centipede with a thin rope crawl around her, and then climbed from her shoulder to her arm.
However, the boulder that had been loosened under Sha Xiaoling's body also shook because of this subtle movement, and the sound of falling gravel was constantly heard around, just a moment later, the rock that carried the weight of Sha Xiaoliang and Chi Mudie began to shake violently, and suddenly collapsed and collapsed in an instant, rolling down into the bottomless darkness with Sha Xiaoliang and Chi Mudie.
Lin Mumu, who was still in the tunnel, was defenseless, and was dragged out of the tunnel by the tough rope, and was also dragged out of the tunnel together, and Hong Jiu'er and Guihai Luoxue, who came in a hurry, heard Lin Mumu's exclamation before they got close, and when the two of them finally squeezed into the tunnel, they didn't see any trace of the other three.
On the other side, among the three people who fell down quickly, only Chi Mudie's reaction was the most astute, and when she felt the force holding her on it suddenly loosened, she immediately grabbed the rope that the centipede was holding, wrapped it around her waist, and took out two daggers with the same rope tied to the tail and threw them at the cliffs on both sides.
Since there was no trace of light in the cave, Chi Mudie threw daggers completely by feeling, one of which hit the hard mountain rock, and was bounced out with a bang, while the other dagger was lucky to insert into the gap of the mountain stone, and dangerously hung the three of them in the darkness where they couldn't see anything.
However, at this moment, Chi Mudie, who was a little relieved, suddenly heard a sound of snake scales rubbing against each other from below them, Lin Mumu, who was holding the rope at the top just now, was now hanging at the bottom, even she clearly heard this creepy voice, and looked up cautiously and asked, "I...... I think I hear a lot of snakes crawling down there, so we're not going to fall into the nest of the three-tailed fiery snakes, are we?"
The sand boy who was hanging in the middle also heard these noises, but the rope wrapped around his waist was a little out of breath, and he didn't dare to move, so he had to shout to Chi Mudie above out of breath: "Fluttershy, I also heard a lot of snakes crawling up below, it seems that they have discovered us, you can think of a way, if not, call your silent goose out to resist for a while, I ...... I'm going to be strangled!"
Although the top Chi Mudie had reached the mountain wall on one side with her feet, she wanted to pull the rope on the dagger inserted into the mountain wall with one hand, and the rope hanging from Sha Xiaoliang and Lin Mumu with the other, so she could only sigh helplessly: "I am now pulling the rope with both hands, where else do I have the hand to take the spirit stone! You are not an eight-clawed octopus, are you me? Besides, this cave is so narrow, if you summon the silent sound goose, it won't even be able to stretch its wings, do you want to use it to feed those strange snakes?" I'm now able to get to the side of the mountain with my feet, and you can try to climb the mountain wall, and I feel the dagger stuck in the crack in the rock above me starting to loosen a little!"
The little sand who was hanging horizontally in the middle fluttered twice in vain, and found that it was impossible for him to climb the mountain wall in this posture now, so he could only shout to the other two in frustration: "I am now all sideways, and I can't touch the mountain wall up and down, let alone climb, Mu Mu, what about you?"
Lin Mumu at the bottom cleverly took advantage of the shaking that Sha Xiaoliang had just fluttered and tried to swing left and right, but his feet still didn't touch anything, so he could only helplessly say to Chi Mudie above: "No, Xiaodie, I can't reach anything under my feet, and I don't dare to shake it sharply, if the rope in your hand falls off the mountain wall, the three of us will have to fall down to feed the snake!"
"Wait, I seem to see something glowing down there!" Lin Mumu said this, but suddenly saw a slight red light rising under her feet, so she shouted to the two people above in surprise, and Sha Xiaoliang and Chi Mudie heard her shout, and they also cast curious glances downward.
But after the three of them looked closely, they were all shocked into a cold sweat, and the object that emitted a brighter and brighter red light below them was a giant three-tailed fire snake with a thickness of one zhang, and at this moment it was opening and closing the scales on its body, raising its huge snake head, and spitting out a bright red snake letter towards Lin Mumu at the bottom.
"Fluttershy, Mu Mu, and Sha Xiao, are you okay?" At this critical moment, the shouts of Guihai Luoxue and Hong Jiu'er suddenly came from above the three of them, and the scared Sha Xiaoliang immediately shouted for help: "Something's wrong! We're in trouble! There's a big three-tailed monster snake down here, you guys quickly find a way to pull us up, otherwise the three of us may not even be able to stuff it between our teeth!"
But Chi Mudie, who was at the top, suddenly reacted, and shouted urgently to the top: "No, you must not get too close to the exit of that tunnel, the rocks there are very loose, it may have been the passage dug by this big snake, and it was temporarily blocked back, and now I don't know if it will collapse again, do you still have this kind of spider silk cord on your body? Just put it down far away and let us hold it." ”
However, the two people in the tunnel looked at each other with horror on their faces, and at the same time wondered: "The spider silk rope seems to be there Mu Mu, how can this be good?"
At the same time that the two of them had nothing to do, the huge three-tailed fire snake had already probed under Lin Mumu, and after confirming that Lin Mumu was an edible food, it suddenly opened the huge snake mouth, wanting to swallow Lin Mumu in one gulp, and Chi Mudie above was in a hurry, untied the rope with Sha Xiaoliang and Lin Mumu hanging around his waist, shook it hard towards the back of the snake's head, and shouted to the two: "No way, we can only jump on this snake first, and then find a way to let it take us out!"
