Chapter 50: Escape from Death I
When I came out of the wormhole, Su Qingyao, Huang Zhutou and Feng Dingsheng were standing in the middle of the cave and talking about something.
His face was a little ugly, maybe the wormholes they searched for were the same as the ones I searched, and the passages were all facing upwards. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 I shook my head and said, "No exit found." ”
Feng Dingsheng muttered, "Are we going to be trapped and die here?" Gu Darthead, we haven't found a wormhole to get out of. ”
There is no exit.
I could guess from the look on his face, but when I heard him say it, my heart sank. This cave is not closed, those wormholes are vents, but they are only ventilated passages, we can't climb out of the wormholes at all, then this cave is equivalent to a closed cave for us.
Huang Zhutou muttered: "This is too early to say, with the foresight of the adults, they will definitely send people to support, now that the worms have all been buried in this hole, we don't need to be anxious, just wait for the time being." ”
Feng Dingsheng nodded and said, "That's the only way, I hope that the reinforcements from the adults can arrive as soon as possible." Otherwise, it's ...... after a long time."
He didn't finish his last words, but we all know what terrible things can happen when we're here for a long time.
Waiting for Lu Jingzhao's support?
In Huang Zhutou's heart, I am afraid that he has not yet noticed that Lu Jingzhao no longer trusts him. Looking at the look of anticipation on his face, I felt an indescribable feeling in my heart. With Lu Jingzhao's prudence, even if he sends someone to answer him, I'm afraid it's not a matter of a while, right?
We didn't say more, Feng Dingsheng beckoned the other soldiers to sit on the ground and rest, several soldiers were seriously injured, and they took advantage of this to wait to rest and bandage their wounds.
I sat down against a half-buried Yellowstone, which was covered in mud and covered with mud from the debris that was a little uncomfortable to sit on, but it didn't have to be muddy. After sitting down, I began to secretly vomit, my forearm bones have been broken, and the pain is terrible, and the vomiting can't make the forearm recover as before, but the magic of internal strength to heal the wound, and reduce the pain of broken arm is also good.
Settle down and settle down. Now the qi in my lower abdomen has swam normally, I was thrown on the wall by the mother worm before, and the qi in my body was knocked to pieces, and the qi and blood surging made me want to vomit. But fortunately, the mass of qi in my body is now larger than before, and although the qi gushing out of it is sluggish, it is not affected much, and after only exhaling it for a while, it begins to emit gusts of air again. The air flow was divided throughout my body, and my body began to slowly warm up.
After exhaling for a long time, the internal qi in my body was full again, and my whole body was comfortable and light. Just as the air in my forearm was full of breath and the pain was no longer so severe, I stopped spitting, because my forearm suddenly felt a burst of itching, like a small worm crawling around at the broken bone. Only when the wound is first healed, the scab will come from this itchy feeling, this kind of itch makes people want to scratch but dare not scratch, for fear of scratching the scab, and then the wound will rupture and have to change the dressing again to recuperate.
I'm itching on my forearm, which means my broken forearm is healing?
With that in mind, I opened my eyes and looked into my left forearm. Because of the broken bones of the forearm, the middle part of the arm was swollen very high, as if it had been bitten hard by a poisonous insect, and at this time, the whole arm was a little bent. However, in addition to some pain in the broken arm, there were indeed bursts of itching, not only the itchy bones inside, but also the swollen flesh and skin.
If the broken arm heals, it will be a good thing, but I can't be happy, and I can't even think about continuing to vomit.
It's only been a long time, and my left arm doesn't hurt so much anymore, maybe if I vomit longer, I'm afraid my arm won't hurt anymore, right?
It seems that Kaitiangong has brought me another surprise this time.
However, at this time, I no longer had the excitement and excitement when I got the opening heaven gong, but the doubts in my heart became thicker and thicker.
What kind of internal strength did I pick up?
The mass of qi in the lower abdomen was wandering unhurriedly, and bursts of internal qi continued to radiate from there and spread to all parts of my body, making my whole body warm. Under my guidance, the internal qi swirling around the broken arm was the strongest, and it felt like the entire left forearm was wrapped in a hot stream, hot and itchy.
I felt a little uneasy in my heart, put away my internal force, and the internal qi on my arm quickly withdrew into the mass of qi in my lower abdomen. Without the encirclement of internal qi, there was a sudden pain in the forearm, and the itchy feeling gradually disappeared.
Not far away, Huang Zhutou and Feng Dingsheng walked over, the two glanced at each other, and Huang Zhutou said, "Brother Gu, how are your injuries?"
The two of them had strange expressions, and they stopped talking. I laughed, "Nothing. I raised my left arm, moved it, and said, "I can still move." ”
Huang Zhutou glanced at my arm, smiled bitterly, and said, "Brother Gu, I just discussed it with General Feng, and it's not a way to wait here, we want to find someone to drill out of the wormhole to see if we can drill back through the wormhole." ”
Maybe they came over to get me out of the wormhole, but when they saw my high swollen arms again, their mouths changed to the phrase "I want to find someone", right? But the passage up the wormhole was extremely slippery, and it was difficult for people to climb up, even I couldn't climb up from the wormhole, and both of them knew very well in their hearts, why did they suddenly say such things?
Do they have a solution?
I said, "But the wormhole wall is too slippery, how can a person climb it?"
Feng Dingsheng shook his head and said, "Gu Darttou, if you can't climb up, you have to give it a try, our pine oil cloth is almost running out." ”
I was taken aback and said, "Didn't you bring a lot of tarpaulin, and you ran out so quickly?"
Although he only said that the pine tarpaulin was running out, we all knew in our hearts what was behind the words. The tarpaulin is running out, so the next question is food and water. The reason why Feng Dingsheng only talked about the pine tarpaulin was because he didn't want to cause a riot, and now that we are trapped here, there is no way out, even if we all know this, but no one wants to find out.
Once this is singled out, it's a different story.
Feng Dingsheng said slowly: "When we came down, the pine tarpaulins we brought were all carried by Xiao Wu, who was my own soldier, and was bitten open by a worm. ”
I said, "And how many tarpaulins are there today?"
Feng Dingsheng said: "There are still eight left." ”
The sticks brought by the soldiers were so large that they burned for nearly half an hour wrapped in a pine tarpaulin, but now they were almost non-existent, and most of them were used against the worms. I looked at the torches, which were made of broadswords instead of sticks, and burned for no more than a quarter of an hour.
In other words, from now on we will only light one torch, and we will only be able to hold on to the lighting for one hour.
I looked at the wormholes around me, and in the dim firelight, the mouths of the wormholes in that row were pitch black and deep, and they were indescribably gloomy.
Just as he was about to stand up, suddenly, a soldier not far away shouted, "Someone is still alive!"
The cave had collapsed, and it was impossible for the man who had been crushed to the ground to be alive, and the soldier screamed so loudly that I shuddered and slammed myself up from the ground.
Huang Zhutou and Feng Dingsheng were also startled, and the three of us hurriedly followed the voice, and as soon as we turned our heads, there was an exclamation on the other side of the cave, and one of them was the sound of a worm.
"Tsk~~~"
Looking closely, there was chaos on the other side of the cave, and a worm with its tail cocked high was leaning over to bite a soldier's abdomen. Even from this distance, I could see that the soldier's abdomen had been cut open, and the bloody intestines were being ripped out by the worm. The soldier was not dead, but he could not say a word, and his hands were powerlessly pushing the worm that kept shaking its head.
I shuddered involuntarily.
"Brute, let me die!"
"Drink!"
Before we could make any move, the soldiers rushed over, and even one of the quick-eyed soldiers threw the torch in his hand.
The worm knew how powerful the torch was, and before the torch was close to it, it suddenly turned around, and its body bounced violently, and it burrowed into a wormhole, which was followed by a rapid "puff puff ......" sound, and in only two blinks of an eye it was far away.
It happened so suddenly that I didn't react until the worm crawled into the wormhole, and when I came back to my senses, the cave was already full of angry scolding.
We ran to the soldier's side, and the soldier was no longer breathing, only to see that his belly seemed to have been arched by a boar, and the skin was open, and all the organs in his stomach had been stripped open, and the minced meat was scattered all over the ground.
Four or five soldiers crouched beside the dead soldier, trying to treat him, but he didn't know how to do it. On the other side, several soldiers chased after the mouth of the wormhole and poked their spears at the entrance of the cave. I heard a lot of scolding, but after all, no one dared to climb into the hole.
At this time, a gray-faced soldier squatting on the ground turned around and said, "General, the man is dead." ”
Feng Dingsheng's face was gloomy, and he looked at the wormhole and said fiercely: "Don't let Ben General catch you, if you catch you, you will be chopped up alive!"
I was a little silent. The worm has burrowed into the wormhole, and it will be difficult to catch it, but I am more concerned about the soldier who has been bitten to death by the worm right now. It won't be long before the soldier becomes a worm.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Su Qingyao's voice coming from behind us: "General Feng, quickly, cut off the heads of the dead soldiers." ”
I turned my head to look and saw Su Qingyao running towards us, he had been sitting in a corner of the cave before, alone and breathing, far away from us.
Feng Dingsheng snorted coldly and said, "Mr. Su, everyone is already dead, there is no need to be like this!"
Su Qingyao ran to our side, looked at the corpse of the soldier on the ground, and said, "General Feng, have you forgotten the fate of being scratched or bitten to death by a worm?"
Huang Zhutou woke up suddenly, looked at Feng Dingsheng and said: "General Feng, what Mr. Su said is right, that snake contains highly poisonous, and anyone bitten to death by it will become a snakeworm, so for the sake of insurance, it is better to cut off this person's head as soon as possible." ”
Feng Dingsheng's face became more and more gloomy, he glanced at Su Qingyao and Huang Zhutou, and said, "Huang Zhutou, Mr. Su, this dead person is my subordinate, according to the rules of our army, he should enjoy a good burial." Chop off his head, how do you want me to explain it to my soldiers?"
I don't understand the rules in the army, but what Feng Dingsheng said is all reasonable. The soldiers in these armies belonged to the forbidden army and served the Great Song Dynasty, and their death was naturally to be treated favorably, although this time it was a snake worm that was pursued, but it was also a death in the line of duty. I couldn't help but look around, at this time, there were only nine soldiers squatting on the ground and blocking the entrance of the wormhole, looking at Su Qingyao and Huang Zhutou unkempt, even if Feng Dingsheng didn't say anything, I am afraid that there would be soldiers who stood up against Su Qingyao.
Su Qingyao said in a deep voice: "If this soldier turns into a worm and bites other soldiers to death, how will you explain?"
Feng Dingsheng sneered and said, "I don't bother Mr. Su about this, if he becomes a worm, I will kill him with my own hands." ”
When he said this, he didn't agree to cut off the soldier's head? I couldn't help but say, "General Feng, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to do this, please think twice." ”
Feng Dingsheng had a good face towards me, and when he saw me talking, he smiled and said, "Gu Darttou, the soldier's life must protect the land and the country, but death cannot be humiliated." These soldiers have been following me for years, and if I can't give them back the dignity they deserve if they die, it will make me worse than killing them. ”
I looked at the dead soldier on the ground. The soldier's face turned blue, there was no place in his abdomen intact, and a large pool of blood was flowing from under him. If he dies on the battlefield, it may be a supreme honor for him, but if he becomes a worm, is his death an honor or a disgrace?
I opened my mouth, and was about to speak, when suddenly the sound of a big knife breaking through the air suddenly came from me.
"Poof!"
I turned my head, and the big knife in Huang Zhutou's hand was slashing at the neck of the soldier on the ground, and there was no blood flowing from the soldier's head, and he rolled to the side twice like a melon. Huang Zhutou actually took advantage of the fact that I was talking to Feng Dingsheng and cut off the soldier's head.
Feng Dingsheng said angrily: "Huang Jin said! What are you doing!"
As he spoke, he pulled out the broadsword at his waist, and his group of soldiers also surrounded him, aiming their spears at Huang Zhu's head.
I was taken aback, and hurriedly shouted, "General Feng, stop quickly." ”
Su Qingyao also saw that the situation was wrong, and immediately continued: "General Feng, Huang Zhutou's move is also helpless, if this person becomes a worm, and then bites and bites others to death, the consequences are unimaginable, General Feng wants to be clear, don't be angry." ”
Feng Dingsheng's face was gloomy, and he said: "Cutting off my soldier's head is like cutting off my hands and feet, how can you not be angry? ”
People in the army value feelings and treat each other as brothers and sisters, although I don't know the situation in the army, but this is more or less the same as the Jianghu sect. When I was in the Iron Sword Sect, I knew the feeling of treating the same sect as siblings, and when several senior brothers died, I and the senior brothers were really very sad, and I think General Feng was in the same mood at this time. Besides, this time he came down to chase the worms, most of the soldiers he brought had died, and now there were only nine left, Feng Dingsheng was already furious, but he didn't say it. Huang Zhutou's move did touch Feng Dingsheng's bottom line.
