Chapter 269: A Time of Despair
There is no oxygen in the claustrophobic space, and the only remaining oxygen has been consumed by Ye Qingfeng and others, and the remaining air composition is no longer enough to support people's breathing.
Faceless guessed correctly, this place was flooded by ice and rocks, not only could not breathe, but it was extremely cold, and the ice water dripped down, and everyone's clothes were already wet.
Without mana, they can't survive a quarter of an hour here.
But the mana in everyone's body is limited, and under such a constant consumption, it can't be connected with the aura of heaven and earth to form a benign reincarnation of Zhou Tian, which can't last long.
When they knew that the aura of heaven and earth had been broken, the hearts of Ye Qingfeng and the others sank.
Mu Zibai muttered, "It's been eight hours. ”
Ye Qingfeng said: "What eight hours?"
Mu Zibai said slowly: "The hidden runes on our bodies have been eight hours. ”
Hua Jieyu's face changed, and he couldn't help but say, "I remember you said that the Concealment Rune can only last twelve hours, so isn't there only four hours left?"
"Not bad. ”
Mu Zibai said: "This means that we will be discovered after four hours, and it will take about two hours to engrave the rune, plus the faceless they have been patrolling, I don't dare to use this kind of large fluctuating mana if I get too close, which will delay the engraving time of my rune." ”
Ye Qingfeng said in a deep voice: "I understand, it means that if you don't engrave the runes immediately now, it will be too late." ”
Mu Zibai nodded, and then said, "But my mana is only forty percent left, and I need someone to supplement my mana." ”
Bai Wuwu said: "Brother Qingfeng and I will supplement you with thirty percent, and we still have a lot of mana left." ”
"Not much. ”
Ling Shuangyue said directly: "Qingfeng's mana is only sixty percent at most, and you only have forty percent. ”
"That's it, don't lie to us, Big Stupid Bear. ”
Xue Qianxun said: "I have the most left, I have about eighty percent left." ”
Jiang Shuxue also said: "I also have eighty percent." ”
Xue Qianxun smiled: "Sister Hua and Sister Shuangyue have spent a lot of mana just now, and now there should not be much left, Sister Shuxue, let's divide it into three percent, and let Mu Shi carve out the runes." ”
"Not enough. ”
Mu Zibai raised his head and said slowly: "If it is you, you need to contribute at least twelve percent of your mana, and there is a gap between our realm." ”
Everyone was also stunned, and then they remembered that Mu Zibai was the Demon King, and the vastness of his mana was deeper than that of everyone present except Ye Qingfeng, so his Yicheng was equivalent to twice that of everyone. ”
Ye Qingfeng said: "Don't say it, I'll give thirty percent, and the remaining thirty percent, you have to give sixty percent, and the two of you will make up for it." ”
Mu Zibai also said: "It's decided, let's start." ”
So the difficult rune carving began, due to the faceless and other people patrolling back and forth above, Mu Zibai did not dare to carve it at any time, plus there was not much mana left in his body, and at the same time, he had to accept the mana transmission from everyone, and the speed slowed down.
And what is even more afraid is that if you are accidentally discovered by the people above, things will be even more difficult to handle.
But the time was only four hours, and he had to engrave a full seven runes.
With such a tight time, so much risk, fear and claustrophobia, tension and danger.
Everyone's faces were covered with sweat, and they were too nervous to speak.
After Ye Qingfeng delivered mana to Mu Zibai, he gritted his teeth and leaned against the cold stone wall, his eyes closed and his head buzzed.
The hand was numb, and it was held by a colder hand, and Ye Qingfeng could feel that delicacy and care.
He slowly opened his eyes, but he couldn't see Ling Shuangyue's face, it was too dark here, and no one wanted to waste mana to increase their eyesight.
Although Ye Qingfeng couldn't see it, he could imagine Ling Shuangyue's face, her eyes must be very bright, that brightness is confidence, hope, belief in the strength of this world, and the best yearning for the future.
Both of their hands were extremely cold, but they were clenched together, as if they were unwilling to let go for a moment.
"We can live, we can. ”
This sentence was said by Ye Qingfeng, every time he was desperate, it was Ling Shuangyue who gave him strength, and he wanted to give Ling Shuangyue strength this time.
"Hmm..."
A soft murmur warmed to the bones, and the hearts of the two were instantly connected.
Speechless, silent, not even a low gasp.
It was so quiet, so hopelessly quiet.
It's been too long, so long that people want to go crazy, but four hours have passed after all.
Mu Zibai's rune was finally pasted on everyone before the previous rune failed.
These seven runes consumed too much mana from everyone, but in exchange for twelve hours of safety.
"What should I do?"
Xue Qianhiro's voice trembled a little, she has matured a lot over the years, she is no longer afraid of things, and she is no longer panicked, but this time it is a desperate situation, a real desperate situation.
Everyone didn't answer, including Mu Zibai and Ling Shuangyue, the two think tanks, because they were also thinking about what to do.
"How long can our mana last?"
Bai Wuwu asked this question, but this question was no longer a problem, because everyone knew that it could only last for twelve hours.
Ye Qingfeng said: "If we stay like this, our mana is enough to keep us here for a month, after all, we are also considered strong, but... But after twelve hours, we need to have a new concealment rune, a concealment rune that can deceive a strong person of the level of Faceless, and we don't have the mana to support the engraving of the concealment rune. ”
Twelve hours seems like a long time, but it seems like a short time, and now everyone is not so sensitive to the speed of time.
There was silence in the field, a silence like death, and this silence was enough to ruin a person's heart.
Ye Qingfeng said in a condensed voice: "That's enough! Don't put on a look like you want to die, let's cheer up, twelve hours is not short, we can think of a way, the birth of wisdom only takes a moment." ”
His voice was louder, and everyone was shocked.
Ling Shuangyue said softly: "Yes, everyone, we still have twelve hours to figure out a way, we still have a chance to live, don't give up." ”
Lao Bai said: "I'm very confident to live, but I really can't think of any bullshit way, if I want to find a way, then the way is to leave it alone, just rush out and do it with them, it's better than suffocating here." ”
Hua explained: "I always feel that we have overlooked something, but I can't remember it for a while. ”
Mu Zibai also immediately said: "I also have this feeling, as if there is something I should have thought of, but because of the state problem, I didn't think of it." ”
"Then let's take a look. ”
Ling Shuangyue said with a smile: "If we want to live, there are only three possibilities. First, we rush out, defeat the faceless them, and walk away. Second, we find other ways to quietly get out of here. Third, we've been here all along, waiting for rescue, but we're in need of mana supplies. ”
"At the moment, it seems that the first one is not possible, the second is not possible, and only the third one is in line with one of our current situations. ”
She looked up and said, "It's just how can we find a supply of mana?" ”
So in the end, the reasoning came back to this fatal question, how could it be possible to recover mana when the aura of heaven and earth was blocked, this is a dead knot.
The field fell into silence again, and the silence swallowed everything, so that everyone could clearly hear their heartbeats and clearly feel the cold around them.
"Big Dumb Bear, are we really going to die?"
Yukichihiro's voice was soft and confused.
Bai Wuwu grinned and said, "Don't worry, our life is so hard, we will definitely not die." ”
Xue Qianxun said in a low voice: "But everyone has no choice, usually Mu Shi has the best way, and now he can't help it." ”
Bai Wuwu said: "Isn't there still me, after twelve hours, I will take you out to kill, I don't believe that Wumian can kill us all." ”
"No... No, it doesn't. ”
Xue Qianxun hurriedly grabbed his arm, shook his head, and said, "Are you trying to lure them away and let me go? No, I won't leave you." My heart was broken once in the Labyrinth of Hell, and I didn't dare to feel that way anymore, otherwise I wouldn't be able to stand it. ”
She leaned her head into Bai Wuwu's arms and said softly: "Death is death, in fact, I have lived a wonderful life over the years, the master loves me, the uncles spoil me, the senior brothers, the younger brothers, the younger sisters, the younger sisters and sisters all like me and treat me well, you are also good to me, I think it's worth it." ”
Bai Wuwu couldn't help but smile and said: "Hey, you have a little conscience, and you know that this bear is good to you." ”
Xue Qianxun said: "But I still don't want to die, I think I have regrets." ”
"What regrets?"
Xue Qianxun said softly: "I haven't had time to repay you for your kindness to me, and I am reluctant to die." ”
Bai Wuwu's fists suddenly clenched, his bones crackled, and he said slowly: "Don't worry, we won't die so easily." ”
"Hmm!"
Xue Qianxun said: "Master should save me, he loves me the most, he will give me any grievances I suffer, and give me the master, this time I am buried below, Master will definitely come, he will not care about anything when he gets angry." ”
"Well, trust him. ”
Bai Wuwu closed his eyes, his fists still clenched.
On the other side, Ling Shuangyue and Ye Qingfeng were leaning side by side on the cold rock wall, their hands holding tightly.
Ling Shuangyue said in a low voice: "If this time ......"
"There are no ifs. ”
Ye Qingfeng directly interrupted: "I know what you want to say, you want to say what if we die this time, right?"
Ling Shuangyue said: "Do you regret embarking on this road? This road is so bumpy and so difficult. ”
"No, it won't. ”
Ye Qingfeng said: "I won't even think about regretting, I am a disciple of Tiance Mansion, I am a soldier, and my duty is to defend mountains and rivers." Besides, I am the son of a chivalrous man, and I have my soul. ”
Speaking of this, he paused and continued: "Frost Moon, we won't die, I'm not willing to die now, I'm too unwilling. ”
"I haven't let the villagers in Qinghe Town return to their former happy days, Brother Qin's son, I still have to teach him martial arts, the world is still chaotic, I haven't seen the day I want to see yet. ”
"And you, you and I are heart-to-heart, fate is rare, I haven't married you yet, and I haven't made you my wife. ”
"All things, I must achieve them, I can't die. ”
His tone was firm and full of power.
Ling Shuangyue couldn't help but smile on her face, she nodded, and said softly, "I believe in you, you can do all this." ”
Ye Qingfeng said: "The last thing, it's not enough for you to just believe, you have to nod and agree." ”
Ling Shuangyue said with a smile: "You, our daughter's family is going to get married, how can we make such a rash decision, if we marry the wrong Lang Jun, this life will be ruined." ”
Ye Qingfeng said: "I will work hard." ”
Ling Shuangyue said: "I'm talking about my daughter's family, but not me, I don't think I will marry the wrong person." ”
She held Ye Qingfeng's hand tightly and was silent for a long time before she said firmly: "If this time, we can get out alive, I promise you that I will be your wife in the future." ”
Hearing this, Ye Qingfeng's body suddenly shook, and he was stunned for a long time before he let out a wild laugh.
The laughter startled everyone, and they quickly stood up one by one.
Bai Wuwu exclaimed: "Brother Qingfeng, what's wrong with you?"
"Hahahaha!
Ye Qingfeng laughed and said, "Frost Moon, she replied... Hmm..."
Ling Shuangyue covered his mouth tightly, and then said, "It's okay, he just said that we can definitely go out." ”
