Volume 1 Chapter 14: Escape

My voice was not very loud, and the second brother and Dawu climbed in front and didn't hear my voice.

Only Bai Sha, who was closest to me, heard my complaint, and he turned around abruptly and said, "Who are you talking to?" ”

I almost didn't dare to turn around, I didn't pay attention to Baisha, I first sped up and climbed for a while, and after sticking to Baisha, I replied: "Something touched my feet just now, I was tired and dizzy, and I thought it was Master Cao following me. ”

After saying that, I subconsciously looked back to see what had hit my foot.

However, when I looked back, I saw nothing, it was pitch black.

"It's strange, something touched my foot...."

I was about to explain to Bai Sha that there must be something following me, but Bai Sha shook his head at me: "Climb quickly, if you encounter something in this secret passage, it will be very troublesome to deal with.... You follow me closely, and let me know if there is any movement. ”

It seems that Bai Sha didn't question me, I looked back again, still didn't find anything, I was a little suspicious if I was too tired and hallucinating.

I climbed forward a little further, but I couldn't keep up, and I fell short of the distance between me and Baisha.

In the end, they rely on this craft to eat, and their physical strength is naturally much better than that of normal people, but after a few days of tossing, I don't eat or drink, and my physical strength and energy have long reached the limit.

Because the only light source was held by Dawu who was crawling at the front, after falling away from them, I soon lost my sight in this dark passage, and it became pitch black again.

I crawled forward again, but I couldn't catch up with the second brother and them, and at this time there was a strange feeling on my feet, as if a hand was grabbing my feet.

"it!"

I was so frightened that I didn't care if I would be scratched by the small stones in the soil, so I crawled forward as if I had returned to the light.

This time the thing didn't disappear the next moment, and as I crawled forward, it seemed to be chasing me, and the thing that grabbed my feet grew stronger.

After crawling at a very fast pace for a few minutes, I didn't see the light of the flashlight, and my heart sank.

I only stopped for a minute, with the speed of the second brother, I can't climb too far in a minute, and I am now crawling forward at several times the speed before, it stands to reason that I should have seen the light of the flashlight at this time!

I was stunned, and my foot was grabbed by that thing again, and this time I couldn't shake off that thing.

I'm about to cry, why the hell is it me who is out of touch with the army every time!

The thing in the back hurt my ankle and felt like it wanted to rip my leg off. At this moment, my hands have already been blurred by the flesh and blood of the stones in the soil, and I grinned in pain, and it was impossible for me to climb forward with any more force.

I thought to myself, could it be that I really want to die in this secret tunnel?

At this time, a bright light suddenly appeared in front of my eyes, and then I saw my second brother shining at me with a flashlight, and they seemed to have gone out!

I hurriedly shouted "Second Brother", and the Second Brother stretched out his hand to me and tried to pull me out.

But the thing behind me seemed to sense something, and it grabbed my leg harder, almost tearing me apart. I realized that if I didn't get rid of that thing, my entire right leg would probably be torn off by it.

The second brother saw that he couldn't pull me out, and guessed that there might be something behind me, he turned around and left for a few seconds, and then handed me a dagger: "Qiuzi, use this thing to stab that thing!" ”

I took the dagger, and I couldn't turn around, and I couldn't see where it was, but I just didn't get my head stabbed all the time, and it really made me stab.

There was a shrill scream, and I couldn't tell what it was, but the grip on my foot loosened at once, and I took the opportunity to retract my leg and immediately shouted, "Pull me up!" ”

The second brother and Dawu crowded at the entrance of the cave, and the two of them pulled me up, because I hadn't seen the sun for a long time, and suddenly the sun shone on my face, and I was almost blinded.

I looked into the cave and saw a scrawny monkey-looking creature crawling in the cave, and it screamed at the sunlight and immediately retreated into the cave.

Dawu picked up the stone and threw it inside: "Damn it! ”

Only then did I completely lose my strength and sit down on the ground. At this time, we were in a forest, about a hundred meters further was a cliff, and the entrance of the secret passage we had just climbed was next to a tree hole.

"Akiko, you're scared us to death.... When Dawu saw the entrance to the cave, he quickly climbed out, and then pulled me out with Bai Sha, and waited for a long time without seeing you. ”

"I can't crawl, I rest for a minute, and I won't see you again..... I don't know what it was, and I kept grabbing my ankles..."

Lowering my head, I looked at the place where the long monkey-like thing had been grabbed just now, and found a red bloody handprint on the ankle, but the finger print was extremely long, a cup longer than a normal person's finger, and the most terrifying thing was that there were six fingers!

Could it be that it was a person who grabbed my foot just now? Or a six-fingered man?

Bai Sha also saw the bloody handprints on my feet, lowered his head and looked at it, then looked at the entrance of the cave and said, "This is probably the little ghost who escaped.... He didn't die, and he never left here. ”

Dawu snorted and scolded: "Impossible, this is the tomb of the Song Dynasty, how many years have passed since now, how could he not be dead?" ”

"If he were human, he really couldn't have lived that long.... But if it has been refined into a little ghost, and it has always existed in that cave as no human or ghost, it is not impossible to live for such a long time. ”

The second brother said what he thought, but I immediately said, "If he becomes a little ghost, how can he dig a hole and have the idea of escaping?" ”

This time, the second brother didn't speak for a long time, he fumbled up and down, and finally found a crumpled cigarette in his jacket pocket, lit it and took a hard puff.

"It's true that the little ghost doesn't have self-thoughts, but he shouldn't have been refined into a little ghost when he was digging the hole, but he was already in the process of corpse transformation.... On the way to escape from the cave, he gradually turned into a ghost, and this ghost has been alive in the cave, continuing to act before the corpse transformation..... Such a long passage, with a child's bare hand digging ability, has to dig for at least two hundred years.... If that's the explanation, it makes sense. ”

Our group was silent, and I couldn't help but think about how desperate the six-fingered kid who was sealed in a water tank hundreds of years ago, who finally dug through the tomb wall and had a chance to survive, but his corpse changed on the way....
