Chapter 15: New Heaven and Earth
In the passage, Jotch crawled straight for nearly a kilometer, and the passage began to have an upward slope, about thirty degrees.
He began to climb upwards, and it was relatively difficult to climb upwards, but after a short distance, about thirty meters, Joteki found himself at the end of the passage.
At the end of the passage seemed to be an irregular stone wall, and Joteki pushed it outward, but found that the passage was still on an upward slope, and no matter how he pushed, his body would slide downward, and he couldn't use any force at all, which made Joteki distressed, and he couldn't think of a way out of this passage after racking his brain.
In desperation, Joteki actually lay on his back in this upward passage, because he was wearing a suit, so when Jotch was lying in the passage, he could slide freely, from above, and slide down, in the dark passage, Joteki was able to have fun in suffering, it was really not easy.
Wait, what did Yotch find!
In the opaque passage, if there is a little bit of light, it will make people feel incredible, and when Yotch slips, it seems to see such a glimmer of light.
Because of inertia, Joteki didn't "brake the car", and slid to the end, but fortunately, the distance was not long, and Joteki quickly climbed back to the top, and then lay on his back, supporting his hands on both sides, and slowly slid down, looking forward to seeing that ray of light again.
"Right here!" exclaimed Jotch, who saw a thin ray of light, so small that a line was intermittent.
Jotch used his hands to support his body, although this is only a seven-year-old child, but after all, he has received very early Yuan Qi training and has entered the second stage, which means that his current strength is similar to that of an adult.
Joteki spread his feet out, freeing his hands to fumble for the staccato light.
When he stroked his hands to the light, he felt that the wall of the passage was obviously not so smooth, as if two pieces of steel were stacked on top of each other, and Joteki knew that there must be a secret in it, so he continued to grope around, and finally found a piece that resembled an iron ring on the handle.
Joteki pulled hard, "bang", and the iron ring was dragged down together with an oval steel skin, because Joteki didn't grasp the strength, and the inertia directly made this piece of steel cover his body, which caught him off guard, and suddenly his body lost his balance and rolled down again.
For Jotč, who has been punched and kicked for a year, this is nothing. Joteki rubbed his nose and looked up, the dark passage had been pierced by the setting sun, and the butter was reflected inside, and Joteki immediately climbed upwards and worked hard towards the buttery area.
Soon, Joteki was under this hollowed-out pipe, and there seemed to be an open space outside, Joteki didn't delay, grabbed his hands on both sides, and climbed up to meet the setting sun.
A brand new land, Joteki breathes an unusually fresh air.
As far as the eye can see, the large green forest is connected like an ocean. The trees grow lush and exude a soothing coolness. The sunlight shines like wisps of golden sand, passing through the layers of branches and leaves, and spilling onto the grass.
The meadows are filled with a variety of wildflowers, with their enticing aromas. The birds of the forest are flying happily and freely, chirping, accompanied by the murmuring of flowing water echoing in the breeze for a long time.
At this moment, Joteki understood that he was free, and the sky he saw was no longer the dark clouds in the castle, and the air he breathed was not the dignified air in the castle.
Joteki found that he had come up in the middle of the last section of the passage, which was exactly flat, and that it should lead up to the fast boulder in front of him.
Looking at the oval hole at his feet, Joteki decided to cover it up, in case someone spotted the passage, and followed it all the way to the end, not to the bedroom where he had come out.
Unbeknownst to Jotč, the bedroom was Jodar's.
In this jungle, there are a lot of rocks and gravel, and you don't have to worry about finding a stone of the right size.
Soon, Joteki found an irregular stone on the side that was larger than the entrance of the passage, and this stone weighed at least seventy or eighty pounds, but Joteki only moved the stone with a little effort, and then pressed it directly above the exit.
Joteki sat on the stone and rested for a while, thinking about his Grandpa Sangdao, and said to himself: "I don't know what happened to Grandpa Sangdao, if Grandpa Sangdao can come out, I will fight him in the far east, if I can't get out..."
"To be strong, to be very strong, to be very strong. ”
"I'll be here all the time waiting for you to come and take my place!"
"Go east, don't look back, go to Gujiabao, and give the note to the castle owner. ”
Jotch had been saying these words, but he was now surrounded by mountains, and the sun was directly in front of him, that is to say, in the east, behind him.
Jotch tightened the black package behind his back and prepared to head east, and after two steps, Jotch suddenly felt that something was wrong, he had followed the passage, but now he was going back, so wouldn't it be back to the castle again?
Joteki immediately came to his senses and recalled what the old butler had said before he left: "When you get out of the passage, you must first stay away from the castle, and don't look back... Don't look back. ”
Thinking of Grandpa Sandau, Jotč's eyes were wet again, but now was not the time to cry, Jotč had to get out of this area and go east.
And so, a child, dressed in a dusty suit, resolutely walked west, away from the sad castle.
Joteki walked through the forest for about two hours before the sun completely disappeared into the mountains, and darkness began to take over the area.
Jotch walked in this mixed land of mountains and soil, slightly sad and lonely. But it's better to be lonely than to live in a castle.
Joteki thought of the old butler, of the cynicism in the castle, and he knew that he was going to be strong, to be very strong.
After another two hours of walking in the gray forest, it was time for the real night, and Joteki did not know what creatures were in this forest, and the children who grew up in the castle did not understand the things of the outside world. He only has a certain simple understanding of various levels of demonic beasts in books.
The arrival of darkness also made some strange movements in the forest.
The howl of the hungry wolf, the roar of the tiger, the chirping of the tree monkey, all kinds of sounds mixed into fear, Joteki no longer dared to move forward, the sound came from all directions, he didn't know where it was safe, he only felt that there was danger all around.
In the end, he had to find a stout tree and rest under it.
During the day, the forest is full of greenery, just because it is located on the plateau and has plenty of sunshine. But at night, it's a little cold.
Fortunately, the suits on Yoteki's body are made of good fabrics, and the passage is very smooth, so that in the long-term climbing, the clothes are not worn out, although the cool breeze gusts, but it can't blow through Jotage's clothes.
"Whoop~Whoop~"
Joteki shuddered, not because of the cold wind, but because he heard the wolf howl getting closer and closer to him, and Jotucci, who has a pair of beautiful ears, has an unusually good hearing.
Joteki was a little scared, the first time he heard the wolf howl, it was when the old butler told him the story of "the wolf is coming", and the wolf howl that the old butler learned at that time was this movement. Thinking of this, Jotqi's eyes moistened again.
"Squeak, squeak" Joteki suddenly heard a movement that seemed to be beside him, as if the sound of a beast stepping on the broken leaves, Joteki tightened the package behind his back and looked around vigilantly.
The moon is big and round tonight, and it also reflects the night of this forest with a layer of moon shadow. Not far away, in the gap of a few trees, slowly walked a few shriveled and shriveled plateau wolves, Jotchi saw the appearance of the wolves, he trembled with fright, he had not fought with these creatures, not to mention that he was not facing a wolf, but a pack of wolves.
These wolves are not magical beasts, but they are enough to deal with a seven-year-old child.
Joteki was so frightened that he hurried around behind the stout tree, but he didn't know that the smell on his body had already been locked by the wolves.
