The black shadow did not answer my words, nor did he pay attention to Xia Xiaobei's screams and trembling. Instead, he squatted down next to me, "I hold your hand, and you slowly pour your internal energy into your hand, and follow my movements."
Just straighten the misaligned joints and it will be fine!”
I glanced at Xia Xiaobei and saw her looking at me and the black shadow beside me with a horrified expression.
"Hu, Hu Ling, don't believe his words, he is not a human being, I will die!" Xia Xiaobei shook his head violently at me.
I raised my lips slightly and gave Xia Xiaobei a weird smile, "It's okay!"
The black shadow was almost right next to me. After feeling his aura, I was almost certain who he was, but I didn't expect to see him again in this place.
The black shadow's hands have gently covered my hands, giving me a familiar, reassuring cold feeling.
I gathered my true energy into my hands and held Xia Xiaobei's ankle.
"No! Hu Ling, are you obsessed with ghosts? Ah! Tai Nai, Tai Nai, save me!" Xia Xiaobei screamed randomly.
There was a soft "click" sound, and Xia Xiaobei's feet returned to normal under the movement of my hand.
"Huh?" Xia Xiaobei suddenly stopped screaming, looked at his feet and moved slightly, and let out an incredulous sigh.
I put aside Xia Xiaobei's feet and grabbed the cold hands of the shadow with my backhand. I tried hard to see the shadow's face clearly, but all I could see was darkness.
Those hands didn't move quietly, letting me hold them tightly.
"Is that you?" I asked the dark shadow in front of me, my voice almost trembling.
"It's me!" Black Shadow's voice was full of joy, "You rescued me, but I can't see you yet! But we will meet again soon!"
"Rescue?" I asked in surprise: "Are those cinnabar and soul-soothing spells meant to deal with you?"
"Yes! Thank you, Ling'er, I didn't expect you to release me personally!" Black Shadow said.
Xia Xiaobei sat on the ground and looked at us thoughtfully, but unexpectedly did not utter any exclamations.
"Come on, I'll take you out. Those people are back! I'm no match for them yet!" The black shadow suddenly held my hand with his backhand and pulled me towards the other end of the tomb.
"Xiaobei, how are you? Do you want me to carry you?" I turned to look at Xia Xiaobei.
Xia Xiaobei got up from the ground, jumped twice and said, "Let's go, my feet are fine!"
The black shadow led us to the stone wall on the other side of the tomb and groped on the wall. There was a soft "click" and an extra door suddenly appeared on the originally flat tomb wall.
"Let's go!" the black shadow said, pulling me out.
After Xia Xiaobei came out, the shadow groped for a while again, and the door disappeared again, leaving only a flat stone wall.
I found a long corridor behind us.
The light of the flashlight became dimmer and dimmer, almost extinguishing completely. I don’t know if it was broken when I jumped down from the burglar’s hole or if it ran out of power.
I shivered involuntarily, and now I almost had an inexplicable fear of the corridor.
The black shadow seemed to feel my nervousness, held my hand tightly, and whispered: "As long as I am here, nothing can hurt you here!"
I was moved in my heart and asked him: "Have you also become a ghost?"
"Ghost fairy?" Heiying let out a bitter laugh, "I'm not as good as that girl Luo Yue. I can't even be considered a ghost now!"
He actually knows about Luo Yue?
Thinking of this question, I was about to ask him, but he said first: "Let's go, I can't explain too much to you now, I don't have much time!"
Following his voice, I found that the solid hand he was holding on me slowly began to become illusory, and the feeling in his hand began to become vague and non-existent.
As he said, nothing strange appeared in the corridor.
We walked quickly along the corridor. After walking for about half an hour, the corridor began to narrow. I had to let go of the black shadow's hand and crawled in the corridor. After climbing for more than ten meters, a ray of light came from the entrance of the cave in front.
Everywhere comes in, and the air becomes fresher and fresher.
The black shadow disappeared at some point.
"Hey! Where are you? You haven't told me what your name is yet?" Loss and anxiety came to me like a tide, and I shouted randomly into the air around me.
"You'll know soon!" The clear and cool voice sounded in my ears. After a pause, the voice said again: "Ling'er, I'm sorry?"
What, everyone is always using this kind of words to prevaricate me, and what the hell is that inexplicable "I'm sorry"?
I was in a daze and lay on the ground without moving for a long time.
Xia Xiaobei behind me reached out and pushed my feet: "Hu Ling, let's go. The exit should be in front of us."
"Yeah!" I responded, angrily crawling towards the bright light in front of me again.
Xia Xiaobei and I finally squeezed out from the cliff of a cave.
The cave is not big, so the exit of the corridor is not very high from the ground. Otherwise, Xia Xiaobei and I might fall to pieces again and get bloody.
There are clumps of wild grass growing in the cracks in the rocks. There is a slightly higher stone platform in the corner of the cave, with some messy dead grass and the bones of small animals piled on it. It seems that this cave has been used as a nest by some wild beast.
Xia Xiaobei looked around and concluded: "This is a wolf cave!"
Wolf Cave?
I felt a chill in my heart and pulled Xia Xiaobei, "Let's leave quickly. It's scary. If those wolves come back, wouldn't we be dead?"
Hearing my words, Xia Xiaobei raised his little face proudly: "With my wife here, how dare those wolves come to provoke us?"
"Tch, I don't know who was there just now, crying and howling about a ghost, and almost peed her pants in fear!" I exposed her without any shame.
"Then, wasn't that an accident? I was injured and I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to handle it alone!" Xia Xiaobei said forcefully.
I gave her a look of contempt and walked out of the cave.
Outside the wolf cave is a forest with steep hills. It is obviously not the forest above the previous robbery cave.
There are dense weeds and trees everywhere, blocking most of the sunlight. The ground is covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves. There are no roads. It seems that few people come into this forest. Birds are chirping in the trees.
The squirrels were jumping and running among the trees, secretly tilting their heads to look at us, and they all looked like they were not very afraid of people.
Occasionally, one or two wild beasts' roars can be heard.
It seemed to be getting dark very early, my phone had long run out of battery, and I couldn't see the time. Judging from the position of the sun, it should be around three or four o'clock in the afternoon.
"Hu Ling, look, there is a kiwi over there!" Xia Xiaobei pointed in a direction and said to me in surprise.
I looked in the direction of her finger, and sure enough, not far away, a thick kiwi vine was wrapped around a tall sycamore tree, and the branches and leaves were covered with yellow-green fruits. This chapter has been completed!
