Li Xiao's body was sinking slowly, but he did not dare to struggle at all.
In this quagmire, the more you struggle, the faster you sink!
Seeing that his lower body had sunk into the mire, Li Xiao quickly turned his head, thinking about a way to escape.
He took out the wooden shelf used to block spiders from spinning silk from the inventory and placed it horizontally on the quagmire to increase the stress-bearing area.
Then, Li Xiao grabbed the shelf and tried to pull his body out of the mire.
However, the quagmire seemed to be a black hole with super strong suction. No matter how hard Li Xiao tried, he could not escape even half an inch.
Instead, due to the influence of Li Xiao's power, the shelf gradually sank into the mud!
After all, the shelf is just made of wooden sticks, and the stress-bearing area is still too small.
what to do?!
Li Xiao took out his crossbow this time and aimed at the distant rock wall with his hook.
But this space is really not small, and the place he is at is quite far away from the nearest rock wall. The success rate of the hook is not high, so Li Xiao can only rely on luck.
The crossbow was fired, sparks were produced when the hook and the stone on the rock wall collided, and then it fell down weakly.
Li Xiao was not discouraged, he hooked up the hook again and shot out.
This time the hook hooked into the gap between the rock walls, but when Li Xiao exerted force, the hook suddenly fell off, and the crossbow in Li Xiao's hand also fell into the mire.
The tools he brought were no longer of use, so Li Xiao could only look around for survival.
Looking around, he saw the only life-saving straw beside him - a vine hanging down from the stalactite on the roof of the cave!
He was so excited that he quickly took out his spear and pointed the vine towards himself.
Once, twice...
Li Xiao's arms exerted force, which accelerated his sinking, and the quagmire reached his chest in the blink of an eye!
But Li Xiao couldn't care about this anymore. He waved his arms that could only move and desperately pulled the vines towards him.
Finally, when the mire was up to his neck, he finally grabbed the vine.
With the only life-saving straw in hand, Li Xiao used all his strength to pull his body out of the quagmire bit by bit by pulling on the vines.
Unfortunately, something unexpected happened again, and the vine in Li Xiao's hand suddenly broke, causing him to sink suddenly again.
Looking at the half-cut vine left in his hand, the corners of Li Xiao's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
In the movie, the vines that carry the weight of seven or eight people are all fake!
It's all a lie!
I can prove it!
The quagmire had submerged Li Xiao's neck, and his two raised arms could no longer move.
After being tricked twice by the vines in the cave, Li Xiao had completely lost confidence in those rope-like vines.
The body sank slowly, and the mud swallowed Li Xiao's mouth, nose, and eyes!
Wrapped in mud, a strong sense of suffocation filled Li Xiao, and he couldn't breathe at all.
Before his eyes, the two arms he raised above his head were gradually swallowed up by the mud...
At this moment, a pair of soft hands suddenly grabbed Li Xiao's last two hands exposed in the mud.
These hands were slender, but they burst out with extremely strong force, pulling Li Xiao and pulling his head out of the quagmire little by little.
Bah...
After spitting out the mud in his mouth and nose, Li Xiao gasped for breath and opened his eyes covered with mud. What Li Xiao saw was Zhou Qing's figure.
Zhou Qing crawled on the dry ground, stretched out his hands, and held Li Xiao's hand tightly.
Seeing Li Xiao suffering, Zhou Qing suddenly burst out with extraordinary strength, but her strength was incomparable to the super-suction quagmire, and she could only barely ensure that Li Xiao would not sink.
"Use a rope!" Li Xiao quickly reminded.
Zhou Qing reacted, took out the rope from the inventory, let Li Xiao grab one end, and she held the other end and pulled it backwards.
When he couldn't pull it, Zhou Qing put the rope on the stone pillar on the side. Carrying the rope, Zhou Qing kicked on the ground and pulled it farther away little by little.
Li Xiao held the rope with one hand, and kept shaking the mud next to him with the other hand.
Finally, with the persistence of the two of them, Li Xiao's body got out of the quagmire little by little.
Lying on the dry and hard ground, the two exhausted people gasped for air.
Li Xiao, who was wrapped in mud, looked like a clay figure at the moment. He wiped the mud on his face. Li Xiao looked at Zhou Qing and asked sharply:
"Why are you here? Didn't I ask you to stay at the entrance of the cave?!"
"I heard gunshots. I thought you were in danger and wanted to come over to help you." Faced with Li Xiao's questioning, Zhou Qing said aggrievedly.
"If I hadn't come here, you would have been drowned in the mire!"
"This is different. I can still be resurrected after death, but if something unexpected happens to you, there is no regret medicine."
Li Xiao also found that his tone was a bit harsh, coughed, and continued seriously, "Next time, don't take such a risk! Remember, it doesn't matter if I die, I still have many resurrections! You
It’s different, if you die, you really die!”
Li Xiao glanced at Zhou Qing up and down and saw her skinned palm.
Feeling soft, Li Xiao approached Zhou Qing and took out a strip of cloth to bandage her.
"If you come to me, come to me. Why don't you wear armor? Also, how did you cross the dangerous swamp ahead?"
"Swamp? I didn't see any swamp?" Zhou Qing looked confused.
"Then which way did you come from?"
"That one!"
Hearing Li Xiao ask, Zhou Qing pointed at the rock wall.
With the dim light in the cave, Li Xiao looked in the direction pointed by Zhou Qing and saw a secret passage hidden behind a stone.
"Do you think this passage can lead directly from the cave entrance to here?"
"Yes? Aren't you taking this route?" Zhou Qing asked doubtfully.
Li Xiao slapped his forehead, his face filled with tears.
Why? Why didn't he discover this safe and fast shortcut?
If it had been discovered earlier, it would not have been a narrow escape from the mouth of Emperor Crocodile.
There is no such passage in the Ark game!
"No, the road I am taking is a fatal road! A life-threatening road!"
…
Li Xiao and Zhou Qing built a bonfire beside the quagmire and repaired it for a while.
He didn't bring much water, so Li Xiao could only barely wash his face.
As for the mud on his body, he has a way to deal with it.
After roasting by the campfire for a while, the mud on Li Xiao's body dried completely, and he successfully transformed from a "black man" into a "gray man".
When I stood on the ground and shook for a moment, a large piece of soil fell off and the ash layer was scattered in all directions.
"Can you please stay away from me when you are shaking the soil?" Zhou Qing was chewing a piece of barbecue with one hand and fanning it in front of his face with the other hand to disperse the dust floating on Li Xiao's body.
"What? Are you envious of someone as handsome as me?" Li Xiao said.
"Hahaha..." Li Xiao's words successfully made Zhou Qing laugh.
"You're so handsome, but you're so dirty, right? You can't see what you look like right now. If you have a mirror, I guess you have to scare yourself!"
