Volume 1 Love and Sincerity Chapter 22 Rescue and Wait

"You two don't quarrel, while it's still dark, look around again, and meet here later." He turned to Yan Datou again and said, "You wait here and make a fire." If I find out that you have escaped, I will kill all the people in the pool. ”

As he spoke, he slashed off a corner of the large stone next to him with a sword.

Yan Datou shouted in fright, "If you don't run, you won't run, and the small ones won't run." ”

Baili Qing gave Kawaya a vicious look and left to continue to investigate the surroundings.

Kawaya pursed his lips, picked up the short knife and pinned it to his waist, and stepped forward to grope for the Broken Dragon Stone.

Organs, organs, you can find out where the organs are.

Dao Dazhi and Ou Suying fell from the place where they collapsed, and Kawaya and Gushanchi immediately stepped forward to rescue, but it was still too late.

Kawatani tore off a piece of the sleeve corner of the knife Dazhi, but he didn't hold the person, and his body fell down with the inertia, Rao is reaction was very fast, and he couldn't stand the whole mountain shaking. Kawaya couldn't step on a steady place under his feet, hit a big rock, and when he turned around, he saw Dao Dazhi and Ou Suying rolling into a black hole and disappearing. rushed over, and was about to chase in, there was another landslide, the mud and stones covered the entrance of the cave, and finally a huge broken dragon stone of tens of thousands of catties fell down, sealing the entrance of the cave.

Several people checked and fumbled for a long time, but they couldn't find a way to crack the mechanism.

I thought that Yan Datou deliberately framed them and led them into a trap. Obviously, Yan Datou was also stupefied by the sudden situation. After being questioned, several people understood in their hearts that Yan Datou was just an ordinary woodcutter, where did he understand the mechanism.

The night in the mountains and forests is even quieter.

The sound of the beast was far away, and a few birds on the branches were disturbed and flapped their wings and flew away.

A few people gathered around the fire.

"I showed my identity and went to the King of Qi to borrow soldiers, it was related to the country, and he didn't dare not borrow it." Kawatani said.

Baili Qing glanced at him, "I don't know if it's a rescuer or a thief." ”

Kawaya kept his head shut and didn't speak.

Gu Shanchi suggested, "This place is not far from the residence of Yan Datou's benefactor, why don't I go to that person and see if he knows about the mechanism in this mountain." Maybe he did it. ”

Bai Liqing didn't think that this machine was made by that person, listening to what Yan Datou said, it was a man about thirty years old who lived alone in the mountains. This broken dragon stone is very old and huge, and it takes a lot of manpower to complete such a huge project, and it is impossible not to alarm the imperial court. It looks like it was built a long time ago, the burial chamber of some ancient prince and nobleman.

However, the man who lived in this place may know a thing or two.

"Okay, Gu Shanqi, you are responsible for finding that person, and Ming'er will leave early in the morning."

Gu Shanqi agreed, but after sitting for a while, he was uneasy, "I'll go now." Get up and kick Yan Datou, who woke up the sleepy Yan.

Bai Liqing wanted to stop him from going, but he couldn't care about saving people, "You should be more careful." ”

Gu Shanqi looked at the two of them, "You are not allowed to quarrel anymore." ”

"I'm measured," Bai Liqing replied.

Kawaya was silent, only nodded, and agreed.

More than a month ago, it was because he chased the little beast and left, leaving Nanxing alone by the river. As a result, Nanxing is gone. This time, it was Nanxing and Ou Suying, who were not protected well, that they both fell into the trap and were locked in by the Broken Dragon Stone, not knowing life or death.

Kawaya was so guilty that he almost killed himself.

Bai Liqing is right, how easy it is for me to die, and the most important thing is to save Nanxing.

"Chuan Gu, you will go out of the mountain tomorrow and go to someone's house nearby to buy some saltpeter, sulfur, and grease."

"What do you want all this for?"

"Burn this big stone, and when it is heated, it will break. Destroy this broken dragon stone first, then you can know the situation inside. ”

Although the fire in the mountains is dangerous, Baili Qing can't think of a better way for a while. Tomorrow, Gu Shanqi will come back, and if there is no progress, let him go back to Chang'an for help. At the same time, I went to meet the King of Qi to borrow troops, although Chang'an is far away, but only the emperor knows about it, the King of Qi is a little jealous, plus I am dealing with the valley, there should be enough manpower to come to open the mountain.

Inside the cave.

Dao Dazhi heard Ou Suying's stomach gurgling and smiled helplessly.

"I can bear it any longer"

Ou Suying said.

There was only one last piece of cake left, and a fist-sized cake was not enough to satisfy hunger. Ou Suying now misses the Big Mac Yellow Noodles Bun made by Yuan Pozi very much.

There was no progress in finding the exit, and time seemed to be very long in the dark.

Dao Dazhi got up and went somewhere to squat down, picked up something from the ground, kneaded it into powder in the palm of his hand, and wrapped it in a vegetable cake. Dao Dazhi was exploring the way, and he accidentally discovered this ability, although he didn't know how to do it, as if a hot flow suddenly appeared in his palm, and the thing was done.

In the dark, Dao Dazhi stepped on something bulging and fell to the ground, a long object smashed into his neck, Dao Dazhi quickly grabbed the attack object on his neck, and in an instant the place where his hand was held turned into pieces, and the thing broke into two pieces and fell on his leg.

It seems to be a dead thing that cannot be moved, and there is no danger.

Dao Dazhi groped little by little, copying the overall appearance of this thing in his heart. I was horrified that someone had come in and died in this place.

However, Dao Dazhi didn't plan to tell Ou Suying about this demoralization-lowering thing. He could sense that Ou Suying was already scared. After a few attempts, Dao Dazhi found that he could only break small things. Is it because I have a lot of strength? I haven't eaten for so long, but I still have more strength.

Dao Dazhi returned to Ou Suying's side, "You can't sit still here, you can eat something and go with me to find another way out." ”

Ou Suying insisted on staying where she was, believing it was safer. Dao Dazhi left the exploration path alone, and he couldn't go too far, worried that Ou Suying would not get a response if he went far, and there would be problems.

At this time, on the verge of running out of ammunition and food, it is not a rational choice to give up and wait for death so quickly.

Ou Suying also knew that waiting was not a good way, but she was also afraid to walk around. After a moment of silence, he took the food handed by Dao Dazhi.

took a bite and coughed straight away, but he didn't want to waste it, so he forced himself to swallow it.

"Did you drop your food on the floor? It's all dirt. Can we pay attention to hygiene? ”

"Oh"

Dao Dazhi didn't fully understand what Ou Suying was talking about, but he also knew that she was dissatisfied with the powder in the cake. I wasn't going to tell her what powder actually was. Just habitually give her a response.

The ancients were ignorant, do you know how dangerous we are? Lack of oxygen, lack of water, lack of food will all die. You don't even know what oxygen is. It seems that if you have heard somewhere, it is said that if you don't breathe for five minutes, don't drink water for three days, and don't eat for seven days, you will die. Although there doesn't seem to be a feeling of suffocation now.

Are you really sure that the other direction is a way out, not a dead end?

Ou Suying left half a piece of vegetable cake for Dao Dazhi.

"Dao Dazhi, do you know what might be here? Orochi, you know what? A snake with such a thick waist swallowed the whole person in one bite. ”

"There may also be fierce beasts such as tigers and black bears, oh, that wild ape is also possible, it can stand and walk like a human, it is huge, and its attack power is very - don't - powerful"

"Also, vampire bats, this kind of dark cave is most prone to bats, do you think there will be vampires or zombies! Ah~uh~"

The films and videos he had watched in Ou Suying's mind jumped out of his mind one by one.

These people are not unfounded, if there is, I am not a special soldier, I don't even have a gun, what can I do.

"There are no reptiles here"

Dao Dazhi said seriously.

This cave should be artificial, the moisture-proof measures are excellent, and the isolation from the outside world is also very good, and I didn't come across it when I wanted to find a wild thing to satisfy my hunger.

"If there were such a snake and tiger as you mentioned, we would have been saved. I slaughtered them for you to eat, and I could follow their trails to find your way out. ”

"If only it were so powerful"

Although Ou Suying didn't believe it, she still held Dao Dazhi's arm and followed him.

Walking somewhere, Dao Dazhi stopped.

"What's wrong?"

"I'll pick up something to defend myself" Dao Dazhi touched something like a stick on the ground, pinned it to his waist.

I walked for a long time in the dark, but I don't know if there was no turn, or if the bend was too small to notice. The two of them felt like they were going straight all the time, with no end in sight.

"Nanxing, if, I mean if, that we don't have anything to eat, we're going to starve to death, that, if you want to eat me, you must make sure I'm dead, I'm afraid."

Ou Suying slurred, but still said one of his terrible thoughts.

I've read in some adventure books that some people have survived by eating the flesh of their companions.

Death can really trigger a lot of horrific things to happen.

Dao Dazhi paused, tilted his head to stare at Ou Suying, he couldn't see anything in the dark, coughing He could imagine how frightened and dejected Ou Suying was when he said these words.

Ou Suying seemed to feel his gaze, and unconsciously increased the strength in his hand.

Dao Dazhi patted the back of Ou Suying's hand, "I won't eat you, we will go out together." If we do die, we will die together. We are husband and wife, and it is not bad to be born in the same bed, and to die in the same hole. Or, do you want to share a bed with me first? ”

"It's all like this, you still think about these useless"

Ou Suying heard the laughter beside him and slapped his arm angrily.

After continuing to walk for a long time, Ou Suying suddenly stepped on the air and almost fell, and Dao Dazhi hugged her and pulled her back.

Both of them were shocked into a cold sweat.

There has always been a road under my feet, and I never wanted to have a cross-section.

"Cliff?"

Ou Suying asked as she gasped violently in horror.

Dao Dazhi threw the stone in his sleeve forward, and there was a chaotic echo quickly.

"Probably not"

Listening to the sound, there are a lot of uneven landing points.

Dao Dazhi leaned forward and leaned forward with the long stick behind him.

"It's like a staircase, let's go down and have a look"

"Hmm"

The stairs are not long, only 9 steps are completed, followed by a large area of flat land.

The two of them groped their way forward slowly, and after going around for a long time, they found that it seemed to be a rectangular stone chamber of more than ten square meters. There are stone tables, stone troughs, stone pillars, and other things in the stone chamber that I don't know what they are. Nothing useful, though.

Compared with hunger, the two of them are more desperate for lack of water, physical fatigue, and mental tension.

Finally, the two of them rested with their backs against the stone wall.

"I'm so sleepy"

"Hmm"

"But I'm afraid I'll fall asleep and won't wake up."

"I'll wake you up, Sukage."
