I felt a thrill in my heart. I remembered that when I was dreaming in a daze just now, I felt something wet and slippery twisting on my body. Could it be possible?
I quietly moved to the side, but "Xiao Jiu" quickly came up again. "Little prince, what's wrong? Have you thought of any good solution?"
"No, what can I do?" I said casually.
"How about, young prince, you leave here with me, let's go find the boss and the others, and when we find them, how about we come back to rescue the two girls?"
I sneered in my heart, if I go out with you, am I looking for death? "I think we should wait, we don't know where they have gone, and we may not be able to find them when we go out. If everyone is separated,
It’s also a dangerous thing to be in this place.”
"Xiaojiu" stopped talking, and I took the opportunity to move to the side again. At this time, a hand stretched out from the side and held my hand tightly. By the feeling, I knew it belonged to Axue.
I held Ah Xue's hand, and finally felt comforted in my heart.
I think Ashue must also understand the situation here. That action was to reassure me and show that they all understood my current situation. It made me feel that I was not facing this situation alone.
"Xiaojiu" came up again, and this time the voice rang directly in my ears: "Little prince, what's wrong with you? Why do I feel that you are afraid of me? Do you have something to say to me?"
"
I secretly thought, maybe he already knew that I noticed something unusual about him? The hole in the tree was very dark. If this thing that didn’t know whether it was a human or a ghost were to suddenly attack me, I probably wouldn’t be able to dodge it at all.
.
I was so anxious that I had to say some perfunctory words: "It's okay, why should I be afraid of you? You're not a monster. By the way, you said Fatty and the three of them went out. Did they mention anything?"
went?"
"Well, they went out to look for something. You don't know, but when you were asleep just now, we found something outside."
"what?"
"It's a monster. I don't know what it looks like. It can also speak human language. Do you think it's strange?"
"It's very strange. Fatty and the others are out looking for that monster?"
"Yes, the fat man also said that he wanted to catch the monster to make game. Haha, I hope they don't become someone's picnic. That fat body has a lot of meat. I think the monster will like it, haha!"
I shuddered. No matter how I heard this sentence, there was something different about it. Could this "Xiao Jiu" be the monster? It would lure the fat man and the others away, and then come back to deal with us? Could the fat man and the others have already
Was it poisoned? Also, since it wants to deal with us, why doesn't it attack us now? It has to wake me up and talk so much nonsense.
I suddenly thought, could its target be me? If so, there must be something in me that attracts it.
I thought about the bronze dragon sculpture again. This dragon sculpture is very strange. It can make the all-pervasive snake beard Gu feel afraid. Did it also attract this monster now?
At this time, Ashue's fingers suddenly moved and wrote a few words on the palm of my hand: "Monster, sound, smell."
I instantly understood what she meant. This monster relies on sound and smell to identify its direction and prey. This is very normal. There is no sunlight here. Over time, the ability of the eyes will deteriorate, but the hearing and smell are likely to change as a result.
Be extremely keen.
I asked her if she knew what kind of monster this was? Why could it still talk to me? But Ashue didn't know either. Just like "Xiaojiu" said, this monster appeared out of nowhere, but what he said
Most of the things are true. Fatty and Wang Kui did go out, and they did see something outside just now.
Ashue said that not long after I fell asleep, a figure appeared vaguely outside the tree hole, but when they wanted to take a closer look, the figure suddenly disappeared.
Wang Kui and the others were afraid that something might be harmful to us, so they suggested that someone go out and take a look, so the three of them left. However, they promised not to go too far when they left, and they would be there in half an hour.
Come back. But it has been nearly an hour, and there is still no sign of them. It is estimated that they must have encountered something outside. Instead, it is us. Although there is a monster beside us, the situation may be better than the three of them.
Some.
"We have to find a way to get out of here." I said to Ashue. No matter what happened to Fatty and the others outside, the most important thing for us now is to escape from here. With such a monster by our side, there is no guarantee that it will attack him anytime.
We launch an attack. Although there are four of us, we are not sure of victory without knowing each other at all. The most important thing is that the enemy is hidden and we are clear. If we start to fight, if anything happens to any one of us, it will be a big deal for us.
of blow.
Ashue also agrees with my point of view. The key is how we escape. It is impossible to slip away silently under the nose of this monster. It seems that it is inevitable to try again.
In terms of experience and ability, I think I am the worst here, but when it comes to making bad ideas, I am certainly no worse than others.
I told A-Xue, how about we make another hole in this tree hole? A-Xue pinched me angrily. The monster's senses are very keen. How could we hide it from it if we dig a tree hole? Besides, this place
It's so big, even if we really dig a tree hole and get out, so what, it can catch up at any time. We are not trapped in a certain place now, but we have to find a way to avoid the monster's attack.
Something as time-consuming and labor-intensive as drilling holes is simply not feasible.
After thinking about it, I made a suggestion. Let's send one person to attract the monster's attention. Then, I couldn't continue talking in the middle of the sentence. This was definitely a very bad idea.
After much deliberation, I couldn't come up with any good ideas, so I asked her, in this environment, what is the monster most afraid of?
After thinking about it, Ashue wrote the word "Light" on the palm of my hand. My eyes suddenly lit up. Yes, this monster's eyes have degenerated, but it does not mean that they have disappeared. Now its eyes have completely adapted to this light.
In a humid and dark environment, if the light is too strong, it will definitely hurt its eyes. At this time, our opportunity will appear.
I thought quickly in my mind and soon came up with a plan. I told Ashue that I would attract the monster's attention later, and when it relaxed its vigilance, we would turn on the powerful electric light and shine it.
By then it will have no time to take care of us, and we can take advantage of this opportunity to escape from here.
In the end, Ashue also agreed to my proposal. Although this method is a bit risky, it is the best way we can think of at the moment. Only by attacking the opponent unprepared and catching the opponent off guard can we have a chance.
Axue started to inform Monkey and the two of them, and I mustered up the courage to face Xiaojiu and said, "Xiaojiu, you said Fatty and the others haven't come back after being gone for so long. Could they really meet each other?"
It’s dangerous!”
"It's not what I say, little prince. It's certain that they are in danger, but we don't have the ability to help them now. We can't protect ourselves, right? So, little prince, I ask you to come with me.
Escape, this is the best way, if we can escape one by one, it is better than being wiped out, right?"
"Although what I said is reasonable, I still feel a little unwilling to accept it. Several of us came here together. If we leave them and run for our own lives, even if we survive in the end, we will not be too happy in our hearts and our conscience will not be able to bear it.
!”
"Little prince, don't be stupid. How much is conscience worth? The most important thing for us is to survive. Think about it, people are gone, what's the use of our conscience? Isn't that true, little prince?"
"Yes, there is some truth to this." I muttered casually, feeling anxious to death. I was almost at a loss for words, but there was still no movement from Axue's side. "However, I still feel that this is not good.
A person's life is either long or short. It would be too sad if you don't have even one friend in your life. But what can be called a true friend? That is, someone who will not ask for anything in return when you are in trouble.
The people who helped you. They have all done this to me. Comparatively, if I abandon them now, will I still be a human being?"
"Xiaojiu" was also speechless. At this moment, Axue finally sent a signal to me. I suddenly felt calm and felt confident enough to speak. In order to completely attract its attention, I whispered
Said: "Xiaojiu, come here, I have something very important to tell you."
"What words?"
"Haha, what I want to tell you is that no matter how smart a beast is, it is still a beast. It can never compare to human wisdom. Axue, monkey, do it."
As I shouted loudly, several strong lights suddenly shone directly, and the dark tree hole suddenly became extremely dazzling, illuminating everything around me like daylight.
My eyes were staring straight ahead. I had already made enough mental preparations, but when I saw this monster, I was still very frightened.
The light shone diagonally from behind me, and in an instant, what caught my eye was a disheveled head, with a wide nose and mouth, two pairs of sharp fangs, and eyes like ink. The strange thing was that there were no eyelids or eyebrows, only
Two big eyes bulging outward.
My heart skipped a beat. Before I could see the full picture of the monster, it screamed in horror, retracted its head suddenly, and swung rapidly. Apparently, its eyes felt the strong light.
