II. Chapter 44—Despair
Among the rubble everywhere, Yu Xinshuang was covered in blood, extremely miserable, and her body was also shaking, as if she would fall down at any time.
Jiang Ming's heart fluttered, and he looked at her deeply, and he was a little confused, but the next moment, his mind was suddenly occupied by a desire, exit!
Only by finding the exit can you truly save her!
He also seemed to forget all the pain, even his injured leg trembled on the ground, and continued to drag Xu Weichen towards the stone wall in front of him, when he walked in front of the stone wall, the whole person suddenly felt deep powerlessness and despair.
This stone wall is thick and craggy, without any cave exit, at this moment, it is like a moat of life and death, insurmountable, and all this also crushed Jiang Ming's last trace of fantasy and belief, and also shattered the power that burst out just now, and even made him sit down weakly!
"Ahh
Suddenly, with a muffled snort, Yu Xinshuang's figure flew over, hit the stone wall heavily, fell to the ground, and spit out a mouthful of blood.
Jiang Ming saw that her face showed indescribable pain, and her body was trembling violently, trying to stand up, but she was weak to lie down.
Are you going to die with her?
There is only one sentence in my heart.
The dense tentacles stabbed at the woman who fell to the ground, and there was only the sound of whirring wind in her ears, and even the whole world seemed to have only the sound of the wind left.
Jiang Ming slowly closed his eyes, unwilling to look, and then a loud "boom" sound drowned out everything.
It was a brief moment, but it seemed like a long time.
Suddenly, a slight, like the most beautiful voice in the world, sounded at this moment, "cough cough ......"
Jiang Ming hurriedly opened his eyes, only to see stone chips flying in the inexplicable light. And the woman's power that burst out from somewhere just now actually dodged the blows of many tentacles, and at this moment she was lying on a broken boulder, gasping violently.
Jiang Ming didn't know what it was like in his heart, but he was stunned.
"Senior Brother Jiang, hurry!" Yu Xinshuang suddenly looked over.
Jiang Ming woke up in an instant, only to find that the place where she fell to the ground just now, the stone wall behind her was actually poked out by a thick tentacle a hole more than the size of a person, exuding a faint bright light, and there was a faint cool wind blowing!
He forgot all the fatigue and pain at this moment, and immediately frantically dragged Xu Weichen towards the entrance of the cave, clenched his teeth, and pushed him out without the slightest hesitation.
didn't have time to breathe, and at this time, the tentacles rushed towards Yu Xinshuang again, and there was a loud "boom", and suddenly the gravel flew sideways, and the ground under his feet seemed to be shaking slightly. And the boulder in front of her shattered, and she was directly shocked and flew out, but fortunately, the blue mangs in the dome still had residual strength and gently protected her.
Jiang Ming looked back, and immediately held the Qianchen Immortal Sword in shock, rushed to her, and under the protection of Hongmang, the tentacles temporarily retreated to the side. At the same time, Jiang Ming also saw that she was lying motionless on the ground, looking up at the sky, breathing extremely weakly, not only covered in blood, but even her eyes seemed to have lost their divine light, if it weren't for this slight breathing, it would be no different from a dead person.
Jiang Ming felt a pain in his heart, pulled her arm hard, and slowly lifted her. Even though her body was very soft and light, she also put all the weight on Jiang Ming's body at this moment, Jiang Ming's body shook weakly twice, and then led her to the exit step by step.
The faint light in front of them was getting closer and closer, and when they were close at hand, the tentacles behind them suddenly danced angrily, as if they were unwilling to let them go like this, although they were afraid of the fairy sword in front of them, but they swept sideways towards the ground, and suddenly countless rubble swept overwhelmed.
In the roar and trembling, Jiang Ming's body shook, blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and suddenly a boulder in front of him fell from the sky and smashed heavily to the side of the exit, and suddenly the wind and smoke were filled, and the boulder also blocked half of the exit, much smaller!
Jiang Ming stared ahead suddenly, still walking tremblingly, his mind was even blank at this time, only numbness remained. Finally, in front of the exit, there was a "bang!", and the two of them fell together.
At the same time as the former dust immortal sword was extinguished, Jiang Ming used the last bit of strength in his body to push her out beside her.
At this moment, rocks fell one after another, and tentacles reached out behind him, but there was no sound in Jiang Ming's ears, as if the whole world was quiet.
In a trance, a second before the exit was completely buried by the stone, the beautiful and desolate face in front of me that was very close to me and becoming distant, there seemed to be a tear in the corner of my eye, and it slipped down leisurely.
"Boom!"
"Whoosh!"
In the deafening roar, Jiang Ming was pulled by tentacles, and the scene in front of him quickly became blurred.
In the darkness, he was the only one left.
Jiang Ming was tightly wrapped around the ancient tree, and four or five tentacles stabbed into the flesh and blood of his thighs and back like short clubs.
"Ah!!h
Jiang Ming's eyes widened suddenly, his head tilted, his muscles exposed, and he let out this soul-stirring howl, as if all the pain and despair in the world were all pressed on him!
The tentacles connected to his flesh and blood, and began to slowly squirm and contract, absorbing his blood, but there was no initial pain, there was a soft feeling of itching, like an ant burrowing slowly in the blood vessels in the body.
His back, the blood on his body flowed like an infusion, but he didn't feel the pain, some of the blood was sucked by the tentacles, and there were also residual blood dripping down his limbs and arms like silk threads, and then along his fingers, wisps of blood flowed to the Qianchen Immortal Sword, lying through the strange sword body lines, slowly disappearing, but never fell to the ground at all.
The Qianchen Immortal Sword was still unable to hang down, and its owner also lowered his head heavily, and as he lost consciousness, his eyes became blurry and empty.
At the moment before Jiang Ming completely closed his eyes, he was in a trance, like an illusion, and in the long darkness, there was a beam of tiny red light, which slowly woke up and bloomed.
Legend has it that the world was originally an endless darkness, and the first light was born in the darkness.
........
In the cave.
Lin Yi helped Li Mengru to walk slowly, Li Mengru's face was very pale, with a deep tiredness and sleepiness, and even beads of sweat were faintly oozing from her forehead.
In this hole, the ground is uneven, and Li Mengru is injured, the two of them walked very slowly, and even Li Mengru was unable to pay attention to the ground, stepped on the air, and his body was crooked, and he was about to fall.
Lin Yi hurriedly increased his strength to support her, hesitated, and whispered, "Senior Sister Li, do you want to rest?"
Li Mengru shook her head slowly, and Lin Yi had no choice but to continue to help her walk forward in a complicated mood.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Lin, if it wasn't for you just now, I'm afraid I would have died, and now I will trouble you again. Li Mengru faced the darkness and said softly.
It was the first time for Lin Yi to hear her call "Senior Brother Lin" so formally, he was slightly stunned, and said slowly: "You saved my life, I also saved my life, and the two of us are also friends for life, what's the trouble for me, let's talk ....... it."
Speaking of this, he looked ahead and sighed lightly, "Actually, I don't believe that Senior Sister Yu died like this." ”
Li Mengru's pale face seemed to smile lightly, at this moment, for some reason, she was obviously very tired and sleepy, but she just wanted to chat, so she looked at Lin Yi and said softly: "Can you tell me what kind of person she is?"
"She, don't look at her as very cold and indifferent, in fact, she is very affectionate......." Lin Yi said this, but he was silent for a while, and then even his voice was much softer, "The reason why she is silent is because she became an orphan when she was very young, and her background is miserable, and she is not very willing to approach others." ”
Li Mengru was silent for a long time, biting her lip, and her whole face became more and more pale as if she had been infected. Lin Yi saw it and hurriedly asked, "Are you okay?"
Li Mengru shook her head and did not speak. Lin Yi breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "I saw that she was sullen all day long, so I wanted to make her laugh more, who knew that not only did she not appreciate it, but once she was angry and wanted to cut me with a sword, at that time, somehow it reached the ears of the elders of the master, saying that I caused trouble, and I was scolded by the master for this." ”
Li Mengru glanced at him, and didn't expect him to have this thought, but then he thought of his unreliable style on weekdays, and the scene of a flamboyant tongue in front of a cold person like Yu Xinshuang, he suddenly wanted to laugh a little, and said, "It must be because of your nonsense, right?"
Lin Yi seemed stunned when he was mentioned here. When Li Mengru noticed it, she immediately knew that he was really a dog who couldn't spit out ivory, so she didn't look at him.
Lin Yi suddenly woke up and immediately said, "Eh, you...... I didn't!"
In the dark and lonely cave, after chatting about these endless words, the nervous expressions of the two people seemed to be temporarily eased, but after the silence, their hearts were more empty and complicated.
The two walked slowly, turned the corner, and by the light of the Falling Wild Goose Immortal Sword, they suddenly discovered the strangeness of this place.
On the ground in the middle of the cavern, there was a stain of bright red blood, stained with the scattered rubble. On the surrounding cave walls, there are several deep terrifying whip marks, among which there is also a cave wall that collapses, and a long sword mark appears nearby, slashing forward along the cave wall, but it is getting shallower and shallower, and finally it seems to be weak, and suddenly breaks.
Li Mengru looked at the blood on the ground in amazement, and her body suddenly shook and took two steps back.
Lin Yi felt uncomfortable in his heart, looked at the sword marks on the wall, and said in a low voice: "They should still be ahead, let's continue to ......."
Before he finished speaking, suddenly there was a huge "boom" sound from the depths of the cave in front of him, and with the sound, the entire cave was visibly shaking.
Lin Yi was stunned and stabilized his body, and as soon as the loud noise was near, he suddenly saw that as far as the line of sight in front of him could see, there were countless black giant tentacles, of different thicknesses, rushing with fangs and claws, and even writhing strangely, constantly whipping and piercing the four walls of the cave, lifting off large pieces of scattered stones, as if with some kind of violent panic and madness.
The day was shaking, and after a while, the cave in the distance was blocked by stones, and there was a momentum of continuous development, and in a few breaths, it was in front of it.
Although Lin Yi didn't know what this thing was, he felt bad in his heart. At the same time, Li Mengru suddenly fainted as if she couldn't bear such stimulation.
Lin Yi hurriedly hugged her, didn't have time to think about it, and then flew outside with her in his arms. During this time, he looked back, and the cave behind him had been struck by the tentacles with all his might, and it was on the verge of collapsing. And behind those crazy tentacles, in the cracks of the stones, there is a faint glow of blood!
