Chapter 237: Accidental Hit
On the way down, I kept trying to grab on to anything around me to stop the fall. But it was bare, and there was nothing around. The pine needles are too soft, and the trees are too thick to be caught. As a result, his head slammed into a tree with a "bang", and he suddenly became dizzy, the sky was spinning, and he almost fainted.
The scraping tore my clothes into strips of rags, and my whole body was in a burning pain, obviously with more scrapes.
I estimated that it was a few tens of meters down the slope, and the slope became gentler, and I finally grabbed a protruding root with my hand and stopped.
Standing up against the tree, I found that I was covered in abrasions, which was terrible, and the pain of touching it made my whole body tremble. Looking around, it was a dark forest, and I didn't know where I was.
I was at a loss for what to do when I saw a flash of light above my head. I was shocked, it's terrible, maybe that Li Mantou didn't give up and risked his life to come to me.
It seems that there is no road up there, so you can only go down. Anyway, get out of him first.
So I just sat on the ground and carefully moved down little by little. Luckily, the slope wasn't so steep anymore that it didn't slide me down.
I couldn't see the surroundings in the dark, so I could only grope down little by little. From time to time, there was a strange birdsong all around, and I was startled to think that the ghost car bird was chasing again. I only dared to slide down against the tree to avoid any more accidents.
After about half an hour's effort, I heard the sound of "ding ding dong" water flowing in front of me. There is a current, which means that I am almost at the end. If you go downstream along the river, you might be able to get out.
The water flowed bigger and bigger, and the cold starlight sprinkled down, reflecting a small river. The water is so clear that I don't know where it is going. Fortunately, the river is not deep, and you can even see the pebbles at the bottom of the river.
I was about to walk downstream along this river, when I suddenly thought about it, no, if Li Mantou chased after him along the river, I am afraid that with my speed, I will not be able to escape from his palm at all. In that case, why not do the opposite.
So, I made a few footprints by the river, then jumped into the river and went upstream.
The river water was so cold that I couldn't help but feel a thrill. The cold water was stirred, and the pain all over his body was relieved. The current wasn't too fast, so I walked fairly easily. The further you go, the narrower the river becomes, and the more turbulent the water becomes.
I estimated that I had already gone out of the range of Li Mantou's search, so I simply went ashore and walked upstream by feeling the stones. There was a rumbling sound of water ahead, and listening to this movement, there should be a small waterfall in front of you.
After walking like this for half an hour, I really saw a white line hanging in front of me, and it seemed that there was no way to go. I secretly said in my heart, how did I come to the road of death.
I was wondering if if I would meet Li Mantou and his gang if I went back the way I came, when I saw a few bright lights suddenly appear behind me, as if someone was searching in my direction.
I was shocked that the secret passage didn't even dodge. Forget that there are so many of them, as long as you go separately, someone will always catch me.
What to do? Where to hide?
Seeing that there was only one waterfall here, and there was no way out around me, I was in a desperate situation for a while.
I had no choice but to jump back into the water and swim to the other side of the river, first finding a rock to dodge. I really can't hide, so I'll fight the fuck.
I swam to the opposite side and found that there was no hiding place, but there was a dark place under the waterfall, which seemed to be a good choice. So he hurriedly drilled over and found that it was a depression hit by the current, just enough to hide from a person.
This waterfall is supposed to have a large current, which is why it hits such a place. It's just that now the water flow is smaller, so this place is exposed. There were rocks all around, and I shrunk and hid inside, chanting the Buddha's name silently, hoping that they wouldn't notice it.
After a moment's effort, through the gap in the water, I saw several black-clothed figures groping in this direction with flashlights. One of them seemed to notice my footprints on the ground and immediately screamed. It's just that I'm right in front of a waterfall and the water is so strong that I can't even hear what they're saying.
After a little discussion, the people estimated that I should be around here, so they split up to look for me. One is over there, and the other is crossing the river to this side.
I was afraid that they would find out, so I shrank back vigorously, and suddenly, I only felt a chill in my buttocks, as if a cool breeze was blowing from behind.
I hurriedly reached out and touched it, and found that there was a hole in the back of my buttocks, but the hole was relatively small, and the sight here was too dark, so I didn't see it.
I rejoiced in my heart, so I crawled on the ground, with my feet behind and my head in front, and began to burrow into the hole. At the same time, I thought silently in my heart, hoping that there would be no living creatures, snakes, or anything in this cave, otherwise there would really be no place to reason.
I tightened my abdomen and squeezed in little by little, squeezing through the narrow gap between the two stones, and finally let me get in. I only felt that the sound of the water was suddenly quieter, and it was black in front of me, and when I touched it, it seemed that the space was quite large.
What is this place? Listening to the echo of the roar of the water, the space here seems to be quite large, and it should be a natural cave.
I groped my way forward, stumbling a few times, and finally touched the stone wall on one side. The stone wall was very slippery, and as I fumbled forward, it was getting drier and drier.
I picked up two stones from the ground, rubbed against each other, and burst out a spark, and by this faint flash of light, I could see that this was a very large cave, the highest point was more than three meters high, and the low place could accommodate a person to squat through.
So I moved a slightly larger rock, blocked the hole I had entered, so that no one would find it, and then began to explore the cave.
The cave is covered with pebbles, and there are traces of water washing on the stone walls, so it can be seen that there was originally water here, but it has long since dried up. But thankfully, I wouldn't have known where to hide.
In this way, I fumbled forward while striking the flint. Maybe there will be an exit ahead, so that I can avoid Li Mantou's pursuit.
The cave winds like a snake, and it doesn't know where the end is. I fumbled forward for more than half an hour, and nothing changed. I was looking for a place to take a break, when suddenly, something different seemed to catch me in the place where the fire was shining.
I walked over and touched it, huh? How could there be a helmet here? Hitting the stones, looking at the sparks that burst out, it was really a helmet, and it was a very old-fashioned, Japanese military standard helmet.
I was very surprised in my heart, did Li Mantou try his best to find the ruins of the Japanese military fortifications that I found by mistake?
Since helmets can be found here, it means that the ruins should not be far from here.
