When Mr. Mai and I walked more than ten meters away, he suddenly called to me and said, "Stop, don't go forward."
"What's wrong, Mr. Mai?" I turned to look at him. I didn't understand what he meant. Why did he suddenly stop me while walking?
"Just look at your feet and you'll know." Mai Lao's tone was very low, so the matter must be serious.
I lowered my head and looked at my feet, and then I realized what was going on. It turned out that we had reached the end, and I was actually stepping on the edge of the cliff. As long as I took a small step forward, I would fall off.
Went down.
I took two steps back suddenly, almost so frightened that I broke into a cold sweat, "Holy crap, it turns out this is a cliff. No wonder Jiao Ba said it was a dead end." Fortunately, Mr. Mai reminded me in time. This is really awesome.
I was careless, I feel scared even thinking about it.
But I didn’t know how long or deep this cliff was. I took out my flashlight and looked under the cliff. The light was instantly swallowed up in the endless darkness. I could see everything. Then I looked at the opposite side.
Go, the flashlight shines on the opposite rock, which is about thirty or forty meters away from us.
The position we are in now is like a large step on a stone wall, more than ten meters long in front and back. I haven't had time to see the distance between the left and right sides, but I guess the situation is not much better. Jiao Ba was the first one to come in. If
If he could leave, he would have led the retreat long ago.
"The distance is too far. We can't get across at all. Even with a rope, it won't work. The stone wall is too strong and the spear gun is useless." Why doesn't this damn place even have a small bridge? The way we came in before, at least, is
There is also a small bridge, but it's better here. There is nothing but cliffs.
"Is it really a dead end? What should we do?" Mr. Mai was also a little at a loss. Apparently, this situation also made him numb.
At this time, Jiao Ba and others also came over. Li Xin's walking feet were still a bit broken and she was limping. It looked like she was seriously injured. I was a little worried about her. She looked ugly every time she took a step.
It's fatal, but don't hurt your bones.
"Do you know why this time? There is nothing that can be used here. If you want to leave here, you have to grow wings and fly out." Jenny said in a calm tone, but behind this calmness, there was helplessness.
"It's over. I thought we could escape. Now that we are fine, we are facing a desperate situation again. What can we do?" The big man was so anxious that he almost turned around. He kept scratching his head with one hand and sighed all the time.
of.
I glanced at Jiao Ba, "Is there really nothing we can do?" At the moment, we can only count on him. If he doesn't do anything, then we really can only wait to die.
Jiao Ba shook his head gently and said, "There is no way. I have checked all around, and there is nothing. The whole place seems to have been cut off. There is no way to go, except the cliff, or the cliff."
My head started to buzz and hurt again. There was no road, no water, and no food. So what was waiting for us was death? I looked at everyone, and everyone's face became extremely serious. The lost
The expression is unacceptable.
"I don't believe it will be a dead end. Jenny and I have faced desperate situations several times, but didn't we escape in the end? Jiao Ba, take a closer look, are you missing anything?"
If it were me before, maybe I would have given up struggling like them, preferring to wait quietly for death. But after surviving several adversities, I believe there will always be a way, and I haven't reached despair yet.
"Brother Yi, I've searched everywhere, but there really is nothing. Do you believe me, am I willing to be trapped here?" Jiao Ba also had a sad look on his face, and it was obvious that he had tried his best.
"Zhongyi, give me the glow stick." Mr. Mai stretched out his hand, and I quickly handed it to him.
After he took it, he threw the fluorescent stick out with all his strength. The fluorescent stick was thrown far away, and the light quickly hit the opposite side. Then the fluorescent stick began to fall downwards, and the light source became smaller and smaller until finally it disappeared.
Come on, I did some calculations and found out that this cliff must be at least dozens of meters high, and the end cannot be seen at all.
I raised my head and looked at Mr. Mai, "How are you doing? Is there anything you can do?"
Mai Lao said calmly, "There is no way at the moment. Just let me think about it. No matter what, we can't wait here to die."
"Haha, I think it's all in vain. Save your energy, why don't you wait patiently for death to come? What's so scary about death? Isn't death scary at all? Twenty years later, I will be a man again.
hero."
Steamed Bun is still squatting next to him, talking nonsense. Looking at his state, he seems to have a mental problem. I think if he is stimulated again, he will definitely take an extreme path. One is to go crazy and commit suicide, and the other is to
I want to kill everyone. This person is very dangerous now.
"Damn fat man, why are you so fucking crazy? Can't you say something nice?" The big man didn't like hearing it anymore and started to quarrel with the steamed bun anxiously.
"I'm crazy. If you dare to talk nonsense again, believe it or not, I will kill you right now." Steamed Bun raised his head and stared at the big man with a pair of cold eyes, like a hungry jackal.
It's about to glow green.
The big man was frightened by his look and took two steps back. He swallowed, blinked and did not dare to speak. But at the end of the day, he still managed to say, "I'm crazy, I'm too lazy to talk to you."
"
Mai Lao and the others ignored what Steamed Bun said, not because they didn't want to say it, but because of the desperate look in his eyes, no one wanted to cause trouble. Mai Lao looked at me and asked me to talk to Steamed Bun.
It's time to talk to him. Steamed Bun's mental state is very bad. He has been tortured so much along the way. If he doesn't get some guidance, he will collapse easily. But I can't let me do this. After all, he and I
If we don't get along, if I try to persuade him again, wouldn't it be like adding fuel to the fire? It will make things more likely to happen.
I walked up to Jenny and whispered a few words in her ear, "Jenny, go and enlighten Mantou, don't let him get into any trouble."
"I'm going? Is that okay? Otherwise... should you go?" Jenny was also a little worried and whispered back to me.
I put my arm around her shoulders and said in the smallest voice, "It's not appropriate for me to go. It could easily cause trouble. You are a woman and easy to talk to. Look at his state. What if he really goes crazy? Can't we just kill him?"
"
In fact, no one is afraid of Steamed Bun, but no one wants to hurt him. It is understandable that he is under a lot of pressure. Faced with such fatal fears, most people cannot bear it. None of us have gone crazy yet. This
Even if you are lucky.
Jenny frowned and thought for a while, "That's right, we can't cause any more trouble now, so I'll go and talk."
Jenny was very obedient this time, much better than before. She walked to the side of the steamed bun and squatted down. She turned her head and didn't know what she was talking to him. The two of them spoke in a very low voice, 'buzzing'.
I can't hear it clearly, but no matter what I say, as long as it can cheer up the steamed bun, it will be considered a success.
"Mr. Mai, have you thought of a solution?" I was also very anxious, my throat was so thirsty that it was almost smoking, and my whole body was feeling very exhausted.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, I'll think about it again, I'll think about it again, Xiaoba, please help me think about it, we can't just die here." Mai Lao also became anxious and spoke louder.
Jiao Ba had no choice but to nod in agreement, but at this moment I suddenly discovered something. Chang Shan had not spoken. If I hadn't seen him, I would have almost forgotten his existence. He was sitting on the ground with his eyes closed as if he was talking.
He was thinking about something, or he was just tired and taking a nap there to rest.
But I didn't feel like it, so I walked over and knelt down, intentionally asking him, "Hey, Brother Changshan, what's wrong with you?"
"Shh, don't talk, don't disturb me, let me listen carefully." Chang Shan stretched out his hand to signal me to shut up, and then continued to return to the same state as before.
I was a little confused. What was he listening to here? I stood up, glanced at Jiao Ba confusedly and said, "What's wrong with him? Damn it, is he as energetic as the steamed bun?"
Is there a problem?”
"I don't think so. Let's just wait for a while." Jiao Ba patted my arm and told me to calm down.
The atmosphere now is very bad and lifeless. No one is talking anymore. Even Mr. Mai is looking around, hoping to find a way out. Jenny is still talking to Mantou, and Mantou nods from time to time. It seems that
He really listened.
At this moment, Chang Shan suddenly said, "I thought about it, we should be able to leave here."
As soon as he said these words, everyone suddenly became energetic, "What...what method? Can you tell me quickly?" I was so anxious that I stuttered when I spoke.
The big man and Shunzi also chattered and asked endless questions. Jiao Ba stretched out his hand and gestured, "Can't we stop making noise for now? Listen to Brother Changshan and tell me, Brother, what should we do to get out of here." Jiao Ba pondered for a long time.
I haven't figured it out yet. Now that he's not in a hurry on the outside, he must be going crazy inside.
Chang Shan said with an imperceptible smile, "It's very simple, just jump down from here."
"What are you doing? Jump down? Is there something wrong with your mind, Chang Shan? What the hell is your idea? I think your brain is broken. This mother is obviously committing suicide." When the big man heard what Chang Shan said, he was angry.
They all scolded me directly.
"Chang Shan, it's now this time, stop making such boring jokes, it's not funny at all." Mai Lao couldn't hold it anymore this time, and his tone was not so harmonious.
"I'm not joking. Do you think I'm joking?" Chang Shan's face was serious, and it really didn't look like he was joking.
Jiao Ba and I looked at each other, and he asked, "Brother Changshan, can you tell me specifically why? Don't tell me it's intuition."
Chang Shan did not answer him directly. Instead, he asked slowly and softly, "Did you hear any sounds?"
