Chapter 038: Escape from Death
"Brother Ziyuan, you are the most scholar-like talent I have ever seen. Zhang Shaoyang's lips trembled, and his speech was not as sharp as at the beginning, and his hand against his chest could not feel a little warm.
After waiting for a while, Xiucai didn't have any words to come out, Zhang Shaoyang closed his eyes, and fantasized in his heart about the few glasses of wine just now, and his body really felt hot at this time.
Zhang Shaoyang still remembers pestering several uncles to tell stories when he was a child, and the second uncle Xing poked his spear on the ground, put him in his arms and began to talk about the time when he was in the army.
Zhang Shaoyang raised his head every time and asked, "Second uncle, are you afraid of the cold?"
Second Uncle Xing laughed: "I'm afraid, why don't I be afraid, I remember that one year I was shot with an arrow in the chest and fell into the snow, the snow was covered with blood, it was so fucking cold, why didn't God let me die with cold greetings, but later, the whole body was hot and painful, just like being in a tank, and the fire was steaming underneath, which was a hundred times more uncomfortable than cold!"
"And then?"
"Later, your second uncle's life was hard, and the reinforcements arrived, and he was saved by your fourth uncle, but he didn't die. ”
Zhang Shaoyang looked at this second uncle Xing, who didn't talk much on weekdays, but answered all his questions, and asked stupidly: "Second uncle, are you afraid of death?"
Second Uncle Xing looked up at the sky, and said with a sad face: "I'm also afraid, but every time I see the general riding a horse and standing in front of the ten thousand armies, that figure blocks the momentum of the enemy army, so I am not afraid." ”
General, called Zhang Duo!
In a trance, Zhang Shaoyang felt a hot pain, as Second Uncle Xing said, as if in the tank, the pain of being steamed by the fire, he felt a little confused, and finally screamed tremblingly: "Xiu... Only!"
He originally wanted to call "Brother Ziyuan", but he found that his tongue was stiff and couldn't be rolled up, and he didn't call it out after trying for a long time, but this sentence that he tried so hard to call out was like a stone sinking into the sea, and he didn't wait for a long time to respond.
Zhang Shaoyang smiled bitterly in his heart, at this time his heart was empty, he could feel that Zhou's body and limbs were dying suddenly, in this wonderful state I don't know how long it has been, Zhang Shaoyang felt that his whole body was silent, only his heart was still beating slightly, but suddenly, the position of the heart jumped suddenly!
"Boom"!
Zhang Shaoyang felt that his heart was hit hard, he suddenly woke up, he felt a steady stream of heat in his chest radiating towards his body, at first he thought it was a sign before death, but after a while, he actually felt a trace of temperature!
He subconsciously lowered his head, and on his chest, a faint golden light flickered and dimmed, beating slowly like a heart, Zhang Shaoyang was a little stunned, it was actually the little jade Buddha given to him by the old monk of Lantuo Temple.
A stream of pure energy on the Jade Buddha continued to pour into his body, and that energy continued to swim in his body, from the heart to the body, and finally converged at the navel.
Zhang Shaoyang was overjoyed, this was really a talisman, and the old monk didn't lie to himself.
"Xiucai, we have been saved!" Zhang Shaoyang said weakly, and then he turned over with difficulty, and Xiucai, who had him as a supporter, fell straight down, his body was still curled, and with the faint golden light, Zhang Shaoyang saw that Xiucai only had a linen lining, which was full of patches and holes.
Zhang Shaoyang's heart sank, and he hurriedly took off the clothes on his body and covered Xiucai's body, and then took off the little jade Buddha and put it on Xiucai's chest, he stretched out his hand to probe Xiucai's snort, and there was a faint breath.
Zhang Shaoyang was overjoyed, even if the golden light was very faint, but in such an extremely dark place, he could still see clearly, Zhang Shaoyang looked at this place carefully, there was a big hole above his head, he should have slipped here from this hole just now, this position should have been a siltation place in the dark river, and the location of the ice cave was the only way out.
Zhang Shaoyang hesitated for a while, there was no little jade Buddha on his body at this time, and the irresistible cold began to invade his body again, Zhang Shaoyang gritted his teeth: "No matter, no one has come to save you after waiting for so long, and it is a dead end if you wait any longer, it is better to fight a way out." ”
After making up his mind, Zhang Shaoyang dragged Xiucai to the mouth of the ice cave with all his might, he dragged Xiucai's ankles, and the two of them slid down the ice cave one after the other.
Zhang Shaoyang was overjoyed in his heart, and when he slid to the light, he found that this faint light was a thick layer of ice, and he could hear a clear sound of water through the ice.
Under this ice, there must be another underground undercurrent, and this dry undercurrent converges here, and the other undercurrent seeps into this side, forming a backwater pool, as long as it can break the ice surface, it must flow out of the water, and the ice is shining at this time, and it is obvious that below is the exit to the ground.
Zhang Shaoyang was overjoyed, he touched the ice, it was extremely strong, he tried to hit it with his elbow, except for the sharp pain in the elbow, the ice did not move at all, this ice has been underground, I don't know how thick the knot is, I want to break it with my elbow, it is no different from an idiot's dream.
After he tried it a few times, he sat on the ice dejectedly, Xiucai's face was bruised, and he was completely hanging by the heat of the Jade Buddha at the moment, I really don't know when his last breath will be broken, if Xiucai dies...
When Xiu just took off his clothes to him, why didn't he think that in that place in Tanzhou, it was much warmer than this northern border, and it stands to reason that he was as afraid of the cold as himself!
Zhang Shaoyang didn't dare to think that if a person died in front of him in order to save him, it would be even more torturous than letting him die. He glanced at the only jade Buddha who could save his life, and the light dimmed a lot.
Zhang Shaoyang was a little panicked, he hit the ice like crazy, and the huge rebound force on the ice made his entire elbow numb, and after a crazy hammer, he was unwilling to lie on the ice, at this time he understood for the first time the mood of Second Uncle Xing when he greeted God.
At this moment, Zhang Shaoyang thought of death!
Die in front of Xiucai!
For the first time, he regretted not learning a few tricks from the idiot, if the idiot was there at this moment, he must be unable to stop him on the ice, right? Zhang Shaoyang fell into a daze again, and in a trance, he felt the ice under him shatter, and then he fell into the water, the originally cold water, at this time in Zhang Shaoyang felt like it was warm, and then it rushed to his throat, spicy like wine.
Zhang Shaoyang woke up lying on a bed, the room was very quiet, he looked around, what caught his eye was the familiar furnishings of the inn, a stick of incense was lit on the table, a stream of green smoke went straight up, exuding a rich aroma, smelling it made it easy to quiet down, he moved, and the pain of being frozen up and down Zhou's body was frozen.
"Squeak"!
The door was slowly pushed open, the little insect walked in with a wooden basin, when he saw Zhang Shaoyang, his face was suddenly happy, and he hurriedly ran out again, and then several familiar figures poured in, the idiot was the first to run to the bedside, the two grew up together since childhood, and the relationship was good. ”
Zhang Shaoyang glanced at it, and there was no Xiucai.
"Where's Xiucai?" he asked, sneeringly.
The smile on the idiot's face froze, and the words finally came to his lips and swallowed back.
Looking at the idiot's expression, Zhang Shaoyang already understood, his throat moved, only to find that he couldn't say a word, and he still remembered getting along with Xiucai along the way.
The words that Xiucai said in the ice cave made Zhang Shaoyang feel uncomfortable, because even if he died, Xiucai knew that there were countless mouths behind him scolding him, and he had not succeeded, and this death, these infamy followed him into the coffin.
I don't know why, Zhang Shaoyang suddenly had an extremely ridiculous idea, one day he would go to Xiucai's hometown and let those who scolded him know that Xiucai was not the unfilial person.
"How did Xiucai's aftermath handle?" Zhang Shaoyang asked almost numbly.
