"Bang."
"Bang."
"Bang."
…
The sound is very slight, but very regular.
Zhili looked there for a long time, thought for a while, and picked up a small lamp holder.
I am timid and dare not, but if I stay here and wait, I will only become more afraid.
"Sister, I'll be back soon." Zhili whispered to Xia Zhaoyi on the ground.
The bones were carried to the north by the wind and accumulated in a long tidal flat under the steps. They did not dare to go far. They separated the bones with their toes and then settled down. They walked slowly.
He went behind the nearest pillar, carefully hid himself, and quietly poked his head in.
The wind suddenly became fierce, the cold wind blew, and the humidity was heavy. Several bone chains and long strings of white bones hit the pillars. The other parts not blocked by the pillars slid towards Li's feet, and he hurriedly avoided them.
The ground was very slippery, and the wind and mist condensed a thin layer of water on the ground. He mustered up his courage and continued walking forward.
The light range was limited, and there seemed to be a stone step going down in front of him. The strange sound came from the stone step, becoming clearer and more frequent.
There shouldn't be anyone else down here, and even the sound of the wind can't have such an effect.
At this moment, there was another tremor under my feet.
This time the tremors were stronger than before. Zheli hurriedly stabilized his body. The ground behind him was full of bones, and the "thumping" sound became stronger and more harsh at the same time.
The cold wind chilled my bones, and I gasped for breath. I stood up straight, but I didn't expect another tremor, which was even more severe.
Along with the tremors, the ground suddenly tilted towards the south. The slope was not large, but the ground was slightly slippery. The bones were the first to react and slid slightly to the south, blocked by the pillars and friction.
Zhili was very skilled and did not fall down, but he was so frightened in his heart that he immediately turned around and ran towards the stone steps.
"Senior sister!" Zhili shouted loudly.
There was another tremor, the slope of the ground became larger, and the bones slid down.
Zhili ran against them, accidentally stepped on them, fell to the ground, knocked over the lamp holder in his hand, and the fire went out.
Fortunately, in the chaos, he quickly grabbed the bone rope on the ground, climbed up with the help of pain, and continued running.
Xia Zhaoyi was startled by the tremors and opened her eyes in a daze, her eyes were confused and her vision was blurred.
Three low walls were half-collapsed, and several stones from the steps above pushed the lamp holder on the terrace toward her. She pushed herself up unconsciously, and her palms touched the hot lamp holder, and she suddenly woke up from the burning pain.
"Senior sister!" Zhili strode up the steps.
Xia Zhaoyi stood up with difficulty, looked at him running towards him, and asked in a mute voice, "What happened?"
"It collapsed!" Zhili said, leaning down to pick up a lamp holder, "Sister, I will carry you!"
"No need," Xia Zhaoyi also picked up one, turned around and said, "Let's go!"
They ran up the steps, and when they passed the hole dug by the old man, they encountered another tremor, the ground tilted more and more, and the bones on the ground were like the ebbing tide of the river. They ran southward in the deserted square with great momentum.
The corridor outside the stone door is spacious and clear, and the firelight left by the old man when he passed by seems like a bright and long fire dragon.
"Where's Master?" Xia Zhaoyi asked as he ran.
Zhili ran a little slower and said, "Master is leaving first and told me to take care of you."
There was something wrong with his tone, so Xia Zhaoyi turned back to look at him.
His eyes glanced at his shoulder. The wound on his shoulder seemed to be open, blood seeped out from inside the clothes, and the dark fabric was dark red.
Xia Zhaoyi frowned and was about to speak when Zhili said first, "Senior sister, your face looks so scary!"
Xia Zhaoyi pursed her lips and said, "Well, let's not talk anymore. Let's go out as soon as possible. We'll talk after we get out."
"If you can't hold on, I'll carry you," Zhili said, "I can carry you."
"I still want to carry you," Xia Zhaoyi said, "Stop talking and let's go."
I encountered several tremors again, each time more severe than the last.
Blocks of sand fell rustlingly from the stone walls on both sides, and the ground tilted backwards severely. Along with a loud sound, the sound of a lot of water came from the basement where they came out.
Xia Zhaoyi pulled Zhi Li, her footsteps gradually becoming sloppy, and the feeling of embarrassment that filled the sky frequently tried to pull her into the darkness.
A strong wind hit at the end, and Zili was dumbfounded: "Senior sister, it seems there is no way..."
"Yes," Xia Zhaoyi said with difficulty, "the lamp left by the master will definitely have a road. Mountains are roads, rivers and seas are also roads. If you can climb and swim, they are all roads..."
"Senior sister?" Zhili looked towards her, and her last voice was so vague that it was almost hard to hear.
"I want to talk more now," Xia Zhaoyi said, "Don't pay attention to me. It will make you feel better if I talk."
He said worriedly, "Let me tell you a story."
Xia Zhaoyi curled her lips, smiled lightly and said, "Silly, listening to stories makes it easier to fall asleep."
"Then, I won't say anything anymore."
Xia Zhaoyi smiled.
She said she wanted to talk more, but she really didn't know what to say. She tried to hold on to her consciousness and speed up as much as possible.
The soil under their feet changed from flat ground to a slope, which made them spend a lot of effort. There was indeed a path at the end. There was a steep stone step on the left hand side. The mud and stone on the stone step collapsed due to the tilt, and a gap opened wide.
Zheli stepped forward and got ahead of Xia Zhaoyi. He raised the lamp holder in his hand and looked around, then turned around and told her, "Sister, be careful."
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire land tilted southward again, and both of them fell to the ground, almost falling back into the corridor.
When Zhili hit the wound, he let out an uncontrollable cry of pain, which brought tears to his eyes.
Xia Zhaoyi hurriedly helped him up, looked at the wound, and thought to himself that it was not good.
"Senior sister, it's okay to be in the way," Zhili said with pale lips, "Quickly, let's go up first."
With that said, he pulled Xia Zhaoyi up and climbed up.
Xia Zhaoyi supported the cliff and followed her. Although she felt uncomfortable, her superior judgment of the environment and her innate sense of crisis made the angle and foothold she chose tend to be the safest possible.
s Choice.
The wind was howling all around, and the clothes and hair of the two men were fluttering in the wind. The wind was strong on the cliff, and they were hunched over and lying very low.
The lamp in Zhili's hand had been knocked over, and all he relied on was the light in Xia Zhaoyi's hand.
"There are corpses!" After going up, Zhili said while looking at the corpses that had been crowded into a pile on the ground.
Xia Zhaoyi glanced at it and then looked elsewhere.
The stone bricks on the ground were protruding and there were many cracks. The flat land was so vast and empty that it was impossible to see the end with the light in her hand.
"Senior sister," Zhili added, "the two of us are as small as ants."
Xia Zhaoyi shook his head and judged the terrain, while saying, "We are not insignificant, we are just sick and injured."
As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden loud noise in the distance, like thousands of thunders exploding, and the heaven and earth roared.
Xia Zhaoyi shuddered and immediately ran towards the corpses.
"Senior sister?" Zhili exclaimed in shock.
Before he could finish his words, the ground beneath their feet suddenly collapsed, and he was immediately weightless.
