Ming Sheng, as he himself estimated, only chiseled out three stones; Yao Xiaoguo didn't waste time salvaging the gold, but chiseled four stones.

Among the rest of the people, Li Chanyi and Qianqian managed to maintain the output of four pieces; Lu Shuo, Xiao Siyu and Zhan Meng all chiseled out five stones; Xin Yuechun and Chen Yun are girls, and they are not agents who have been trained all year round, and their physical strength is a cut behind that of men of the same age, so they can't dig out five more stones today, but have dropped to four.

Combined with the stable seventeen blocks on Xie Yinxue and Bian Yuchen's side, they had chiseled a total of 55 stones, two more than the 53 they had estimated in the morning.

But is this good news?

There are still 194 stones left before they finish building the stone staircase...... And they only have two days left in their time.

But the next day was even worse - in the early morning of the sixth day, all the participants except Chen Yun looked for the stones hewn by the corpses, but they were all cracked, and none of them could be used.

The blue water lilies in the temple seemed to grow from their fading flesh and blood, and they flourished more and more, and their overflowing fragrance did not soothe everyone's troubled minds, but only made people more anxious and desperate.

No matter how good Xiao Siyu's mentality is, he can only pretend to be calm at present, and try to stabilize his voice and analyze: "It depends on how many stones will be broken tomorrow......

"I don't need to look at it." Xin Yuechun wiped his face and interrupted him, "You calculate it yourself, no matter which law it is, even if we continue to maintain yesterday's stone production, it is impossible to finish the stone ladder." ”

"Sister Chen, I don't know how I will die in reality, after you go out, can you help me go to see my mother?" Zhan Meng has already begun to explain his last wish to Chen Yun, the only one who can leave Suo Changsheng and return to the present world, "Although I left a suicide note, I still can't rest assured of her, I left a bank card alone in one place, I will tell you the address and password, just when I ask you for help, okay?" ”

"I don't need to be paid, and I will definitely help you go to see your aunt's ......"

Chen Yun wanted to comfort and comfort Zhan Meng, but he also felt that his words were pale, and he couldn't erase the gloom in Zhan Meng's heart.

As a result, just when everyone was overwhelmed by the sense of powerlessness, Xie Yinxue suddenly said: "Let's all stay up all night tonight." ”

Chapter 265

When Xin Yuechun heard him say this, she immediately pointed to Mingsheng's deep-set eye sockets, and described the withered face as the most powerful evidence to remind Xie Yinxue not to forget that this method is not advisable: "Staying up all night is equivalent to killing chickens and taking eggs, drinking water to quench thirst, it is useless." ”

"I know, but I'm just going to burn the forest and hunt, and fish with all my might." Xie Yinxue bowed, "Tonight, all of us will chisel stones all night, how many can be chiseled, and on the morning of the seventh day, no matter how many stones are missing, we will leave here directly by stone stairs." ”

Xin Yuechun was stunned: "Huh? How can you leave if you can't finish the stone stairs? The gap is so big. ”

Xie Yinxue didn't care: "You can jump over." ”

"Nope." "I've thought about this before, but then I realized it didn't work. ”

Zhan Meng originally thought that they would chisel the stone until the end of the seventh day, so that even if they chiseled less than 588 pieces, there would not be much shortage overall, and they might be able to jump over the missing steps. But Jamon soon remembered that the participants themselves could not build the stone ladder, only the human and beast-headed people could do it.

The stones they had hewn out on the seventh day would not be until the morning of the eighth day, at the end of the dungeon, to be built into a stone ladder by the human beastheads.

The problem is that by that time, they'll be mummified by the beast-headed people - they won't have a chance to jump over it.

Xie Yinxue also took this into account and advanced the time to tomorrow, that is, on the morning of the seventh day, after the human body beast leaders built all the stones they had chiseled out on the sixth day and the remaining spare stones as part of the stone ladder.

But Jamon thought it wouldn't work.

The suspension of the stone staircase is more than 20 meters above the ground, and they have roughly calculated when they first arrived at the dungeon that each of the twelve participants will chisel seven stones, and they can chisel 84 stones to build a height of about three meters in a day, which means that for every 84 stones they lack, the difference between the height of the steps on the upper and lower steps of the stone staircase will be opened by three meters.

What's more, what they are missing now is 194 yuan, not 84 yuan.

Even if there is only 84 pieces missing, the height of these three meters is not something they can cross - who can jump three meters high?

Lu Shuo said: "I remember that the world record in the high jump seems to be 2.45 meters, and it is still a flat running jump, we are climbing the stairs to run, and you are the next Olympic champion who can skip the world record." The highest pole vault world record was more than six meters, but we didn't have a pole either. ”

Yao Xiaoguo looked around at everyone's faces, afraid that he would not know Taishan if he had eyes: "Do we have a world champion here?" ”

Xie Yinxue said: "Bian Yuchen." ”

Yao Xiaoguo was shocked: "Really fake? ”

Bian Yuchen immediately denied it: "Fake, I'm not." ”

"Didn't say you were." Xie Yinxue glanced at him, "I wanted to ask you how high you can jump." ”

Bian Yuchen pursed his lips: "If you don't have a borrowing point, the limit is three meters." ”

Xie Yinxue sighed and shook his head slowly, he obviously didn't say anything, but everyone felt as if they had heard a "waste".

Bian Yuchen wanted to defend himself with two sentences: "We are not like you, we pay attention to ......"

"Stop, no need to explain, I don't want to hear it." Xie Yinxue raised her hand to stop him and continued to ask, "What if you have some strength?" ”

Bian Yuchen raised his chin slightly: "At least five meters." ”

"Five-meter ......"

Xie Yinxue's eyebrows frowned slightly, as if she was thinking, she raised her eyes again, her eyes fixed on Bian Yuchen's face and said, "That's it, I can't force you too much, five meters is enough." ”

He said, "I'll be your point of reference." ”

Bian Yuchen was stunned and puzzled: "Why do you use my strength?" ”

"Haven't you ever studied?" The young man's tone didn't sound very patient, "Haven't you read the text of "Impala Flight"? ”

Of course, Bian Yuchen has studied, but he has never gone to school, they pay attention to escapism in their practice, and they don't need to get a degree to make a living like ordinary people, so they generally study with Mr. and Master at home, and the books they read are not the same as those in public schools, and it is understandable that they have not read the text "Impala Flying".

He didn't believe that Xie Yinxue also went to school!

But Xie Yinxue now clearly said the texts in the public school textbooks, as if he had gone to school seriously.

Bian Yuchen just wanted to talk nonsense about "the book I studied abroad" as a reason to cover up this stubble, Chen Yun, Lu Shuo and Xiao Siyu, college students who went to school to receive education seriously, said: "In "Impala Flying", the old antelope used his life as a bridge to send the young antelope over the cliff, if Mr. Xie you give Bian Yuchen a point of strength, then you will fall from the break and fall to your death." ”

The text "Impala Flying" tells the story of a group of antelopes running to the edge of a cliff on the way to escape from hunters, and then the elderly antelope decided to sacrifice themselves and jump at the same time as the young antelope, so that the young antelope stepped on their backs and borrowed strength, jumped again in the air, and finally successfully sent the young antelope to the other side of the cliff, exchanging their lives for the survival opportunity of the population. ①

Sentimental people who read this article may be moved by the unity of the antelopes; Rational people who read it may wonder if this method is physically feasible.

Nevertheless, this text can make a very strong impression on the vast majority of people.

Xie Yinxue also said that his ending will not be like the old antelope in the story: "I will not die." ”

"There's rope here."

Xie Yinxue stretched out her finger and pointed to the rope grabbing hook device and said: "Let's remove all the ropes and tie them to me and Bian Yuchen, and you pull us from behind, so that even if Bian Yuchen doesn't jump successfully the first time, he and I fall down together, we won't have an accident, and when you pull us up, we can try a second and third time...... Until success. ”

"When he has jumped over, tell him to pull the lightest of you with a rope. Then the past two will continue to pull the third person, and so on, and we will be able to get everyone out of here without having to finish the stone staircase. ”

Zhan Meng's face was happy after hearing this: "Damn! It works! ”

"That's right......" Xin Yuechun also nodded repeatedly, her voice trembling a little from excitement, "We can't jump, but you definitely can." ”

Bian Yuchen is a big man, and it is inevitable that he will be able to pull a lightweight girl, and after the number of people on the upper floor of the stone ladder increases, even if he looks at Zhan Meng, who is the strongest and strongest, everyone can easily pull him up with their concerted efforts.

Many participants had no objection to Xie Yinxue's proposed plan.

- Except for Bian Yuchen.

However, he didn't seem to object, he was just a little confused, and slowly observed Xie Yinxue: "You must be able to jump higher than me, right?" It's only five meters, why don't you jump it yourself? ”

This is not that Bian Yuchen is arrogant and belittles himself, but that he is self-aware.

There is a sequence of hearing the Tao, and there is a specialization in the art industry.

Xie Yinxue is already gifted, and he is also a disciple of the Magic Sect, who knows everything about the wind and rain, serving ghosts and subduing demons, and no one in the world can match it. So Bian Yuchen didn't understand, he could jump five meters with his strength, Xie Yinxue shouldn't be able to jump five meters, but he asked him to jump?

In short, Xie Yinxue has too many suspicions.

Who knew that the reason given by Xie Yinxue really made Bian Yuchen unable to refute: "If I go to jump and take care of everything, what use do you have?" Don't forget the hexagram you calculated, 'If two people are together, they will become auspicious', which is what you said. ”

Bian Yuchen was speechless for a while.

"What's more—"

The young man's eyebrows were raised slightly, and his lazy tail was long: "This is the only chance in your life that you can 'trample' me under your feet." ”

Bian Yuchen also raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and said with a slight smile: "Okay, I'll jump." ”

Seeing that they had discussed, Chen Yun made a final confirmation to Xie Yinxue: "Then let's stay up all night tonight, as many stones as we can chisel, and try to pull the height difference between the upper and lower layers of the stone ladder to within five meters?" ”

Xie Yinxue didn't open her lips, only said a soft "um".

Zhan Meng also regained his spirits, and scored two void sleeves: "Work hard, work hard!" I'm going back to see my mom! ”

Xu Xie Yinxue gave them a hope to live, and everyone was driven by the desire to survive on this day, and the number of stones they chiseled out after giving up their sleep and rest time was also considerable.

Xie Yinxue is still a fixed ten; Bian Yuchen is slightly lower than him, with nine pieces; Yao Xiaoguo, Li Chanyi, and Qianqian are five; Chen Yun, Xiao Siyu, Lu Shuo and Xin Yuechun are all six, and the great filial son Zhan Meng returned to the top and chiseled seven stones; Even Ming Sheng took a hard breath, and chiseled one more piece than yesterday.

Eleven people, a total of 69 pieces.

Chen Yun, Lu Shuo, Li Chanyi, Zhan Meng and several others, who were able to ask the corpse to help chisel the stones, in addition to doing it themselves, also salvaged the gold, depending on the pattern of the appearance of defective stones tomorrow.

- Everyone did what they could do.

So when the time came to the early morning of the seventh day, the crowd felt a calm that could not be described in words when they looked at the dense stones on the sand, in the tiredness and fatigue that almost dismantled their muscles and bones.

Xie Yinxue estimated that the people would come to the temple to inspect the stones in a few minutes, and asked everyone, "Do you want to go back and sleep for a while?" ”

"How can you still sleep?" Xin Yuechun said, "I just want to get out of here and go back to my real bed to sleep." ”

Yao Xiaoguo also collapsed on a cracked stone with blue water lilies and muttered: "Yes, I don't think the attraction of immortality seems to be so great, at least I just want to go home now." ”

Zhan Meng stretched his neck even more, staring at Shidaokou in anticipation: "Why haven't those human beast heads come yet?" ”

Seeing this, Xie Yinxue also moved her gaze to the exit of the stone road.

As if the person he expected to see was also responding to his silent call, Xie Yinxue's gaze did not look into the sky, and all fell into a pair of wolf eyes that were like thick black ink.

The wolf's round pupils are far less cold than the pale vertical pupils, but the wildness and untaminess floating in them are consistent, clearly informing every snooper that under the appearance of this ancient mythical god Anubis, what is hidden is actually a fierce and violent beast.

The Buddha advised the world not to look at the face, Xie Yinxue didn't like such a pair of fierce eyes before, but now she is persistent and greedy, and wants to see the pale vertical pupils again.

It's a pity that there shouldn't be a chance.

He stood up from the sand on his knees, and said to the human-headed beast-heads, "Excuse me, help us to make a stone ladder with all the stones." ”

The author has something to say:

Chapter 266

It is the duty of the human and animal leaders to help the participants build stone ladders, and they will not refuse, and after counting the number of stones, they will carry the stones in silence.

It was at this moment that the participants learned that the pattern of defective stones was 1357531 - exactly the cycle that gave them a glimmer of hope, but could not touch the vitality.

So this morning, in addition to Chen Yun, among the stones they found to help the dry corpse chisel yesterday, five pieces were broken and bloomed.

Together with the 69 pieces they chiseled by hand, a total of 90 pieces were made, and there were still 104 pieces away from completely erecting the stone ladder, but it was enough.
