Chapter 103 Peer
I looked at Deng Min blankly, her eyes were so bright that I couldn't help but want to turn my head away, but her later words woke me up.
"I have less than ten years left in my life. Even if I go out, I will still have to work hard to make up for my life. To be honest, I have been tired all these years, so it's better to end it here, which is not bad."
After saying that, Deng Min smiled at me, pushed away my hand and sank into the blood.
I looked at her in a daze, my mind was blank for two or three seconds before I could react. I immediately grabbed her arm that was almost drowned in blood with my backhand and pulled her out desperately.
"That's your own business, I don't care about that much," I gritted my teeth and tried my best to pull out half of her body. "Anyway, it's impossible to die in front of me!"
I blushed. The girl looked quite thin, but the weight was really not light. Moreover, the blood was quite sticky and the adsorption was also very strong. It felt a bit like quicksand, so it was difficult to pull people up in one go.
At this time, the old man had already carried the uncle to the hole above. He threw down the rope and shouted at me at the top of his throat.
I also knew I had to work harder, because from the corner of my eyes, I noticed that the protruding platform was slowly rising. As the height continued to rise, more crimson blood came out of the ground, and a bloody smell rushed straight into my nose, making me feel so bad that I wanted to vomit.
"You, why..."
Deng Min frowned and looked at me, his eyes were very complicated.
I was so anxious that I had no time to accompany this girl to express my emotions, so I couldn't control my tone of speaking.
"Stop being stubborn, sister! You move yourself! I don't want to die with you! I don't want to bear the cause and effect, there are demons in my heart!!"
Damn it, since I entered Buddhism with half a foot, I have been asking a lot of things about Buddhism from the old man. Naturally, I know that this lineage attaches great importance to the state of mind, and only talks about cause and effect, which is not much smaller than the Taoist people.
If Deng Min dies in a place I can't see, it will have nothing to do with me for half a cent, and I will not have any emotional fluctuations at all.
However, a living person who knows him and dies in front of me, let alone that I can save him with some force, and I can't ignore him.
I heard from the old man that this inner demon will be difficult to pull out once planted, and it will take countless hours.
Not to mention the cause and effect that arises.
After saying that, I no longer paid attention to Deng Min and dragged the person out with all my energy. During this period, I was too big and the wound that was about to be tested collapsed, making me grin.
"Let's go, don't die in front of me!"
Seeing that Deng Min was still stupid and looked different from the quiet and madness just now, I lost all patience and simply forced the girl to hold her shoulder and pull her forward.
The old man's rope is very strong, and it's no problem to hold two of them at the same time.
So I first passed the rope through Deng Min's slender waist, tied several knots back and forth before wrapping it around my arm.
I was afraid that this girl would cause me trouble in the air, so I hugged her by myself. When I felt it was almost done, I gestured to the old man on it and asked him to start pulling.
To be honest, I would definitely be embarrassed to be so close to a girl. After all, even A Ning, I rarely get so close to her.
But now life and death are at stake. I didn’t think too much about it. The soft touch in my arms couldn’t arouse my slight interest. I was thinking about it faster, faster...
Therefore, when I climbed into the cave, the old man and the uncle looked at me obediently at the same time, staring at me for no reason, and subconsciously asked.
"Why do you think of me like this? I know that I am handsome, but I don't make a big deal!"
I naturally let go of Deng Min, asked her casually if there was anything wrong, and ignored the girl's flushed cheeks and clenched lips.
"...Hehe, young man, he's very angry," the uncle touched his nose, then waved me to carry him.
I am the only young man here. The uncle was injured in his tailbone, so I must carry it all the way, so I had to go to him without thinking.
However, just as I stepped aside, Deng Min suddenly grabbed me. I turned to look at her and found that the girl's eyes were dodging. She looked at me from time to time and quickly took it back. The way she wanted to say nothing made me a little annoyed.
After grabbing her hair, I didn't have time to talk nonsense with her, so I asked her straightforwardly what she was doing.
To be honest, the little girl is sticky and good while I am, but it depends on who she is.
Just like my current mood, I am really annoyed, and I am even more reluctant to pay attention to Deng Min's attitude.
Anyway, if you get it, it depends on her to live or die.
And the old man also said that this girl's life was stolen from others and she was not a good person.
I guess what happened in high school may be her work, and the friends who went to the imperial tomb with her may have been sucked away by her.
Although I am quite curious about this kind of witchcraft, I don’t plan to go into it. I can get a little bit of a glimpse and be careful.
We cannot do anything contrary to the laws of heaven, we are sorry for our conscience.
Perhaps my tone was too cold. Deng Min was stunned for a moment and asked me a little lonely, "What did you mean just now?"
"What does it mean? Didn't I say it very clearly? Don't think about it. Because everyone is a classmate, I'm just helping you on the wall. Now you can do whatever you want, we're leaving."
I frowned, shook her hand away and walked to the uncle's side. After he stumbled, I stood up gently, for fear that the greater the movement would aggravate his injury.
Seeing my attitude, the uncle and the old man naturally knew what I meant, so they didn't say nonsense. They nodded to Deng Min as saying hello, and then the three of us hurriedly walked towards the passage.
I can already smell the bloody smell getting thicker and thicker. I don’t know how many people died here, so it’s safer to leave here soon.
And the uncle just whispered to my ear and told me that he had sensed the position of his ancestors. Before Deng Min and I came up, he told the old man that they were thinking just now that if I insisted on taking Deng Min away, I would have to think of a way to fool the girl.
After all, it is a private matter of the Zhao family, and it is not good to be known by outsiders.
What they didn't expect was that my attitude was completely different from what they had expected before, which saved a lot of trouble.
"Your female classmate is very angry, she kills a lot, and her hands are full of blood. Even if she can go out alive, don't meddle in other people's business in the future. She is not a good person."
The old man walked in front as usual. After walking for more than ten minutes, he whispered to me.
"Don't worry, I know that I will save her because I don't want anyone to die in front of me. If you have the ability, please help me."
I nodded and agreed, but I really didn't want to have any contact with Deng Min.
However, facts are always hard to predict.
After we walked along the twisted cave for about half an hour, we heard hurried footsteps and violent breathing from behind. If the situation was not unexpected, we would see people in a few dozen seconds.
I paused and rolled my eyes helplessly, "It should be Deng Min. Just let her go later, let's not pay attention."
"Hmph, I just wanted to remind you that this woman may have mental problems. When you carry someone up, you may have bumped into someone's heart. Tsk tsk."
The uncle leaned his head against my shoulder. Although he was telling jokes, I could hear some fatigue in his tone.
I know what it feels like to be broken in the tailbone. When I was a kid, I fell from a tree and broke my butt and lay on the bed for half a month before I got up.
Now the uncle is not as old as I did back then, and I am walking even smoother, which makes him laugh at him, saying that he is not that delicate.
I was about to choke him, but Deng Min, who was behind him, had already chased after me, and slowed down his pace panting.
I looked back at her, didn't say anything, and turned my head and did what I should do.
Fortunately, she learned her lesson this time and didn't do anything messy. She walked quietly at the end. If she didn't pay attention to the sound of footsteps, she wouldn't know that there was another person behind her.
This cave is different from what we have walked before. It is particularly circling. It takes a turn before walking for a short while. Every time it turns, the old man will use a charcoal pen to leave a mark on the wall.
And the more I left, the more I found that the air became much wet, and my back was wet on my shirt, which made it uncomfortable to stick to my body, especially those who were injured, which was so painful.
"Isn't it a bit strange? We have been walking for so long and haven't even walked out yet?"
I couldn't help asking, and the old man happened to draw a mark on the wall again, and his face was not very good either.
The compass is broken, and there is no place to locate it now. He can only rely on turtle copper coins to calculate the good and bad luck, but there is only one way here, so we can't choose anything else yet, so it is unrealistic to go back.
"Try it again, at least we didn't go around in circles. Look, after each turn, there is a new route, and there is more and more moisture in the air. If I guess correctly, we are actually walking down."
The old man calmly analyzed that we came from the Qinling Mountains near the main peak of Taibai Mountain.
It is not surprising that there are many rivers around the Qinling Mountains.
However, I always thought we were walking upwards, but I didn't expect to walk downwards. My eyes were almost dizzy and I felt very uncomfortable, so I didn't have any prospects and called for a break.
If I don't stop, I'll probably spit it out on the spot.
The old man waved us to rest, but he didn't stop himself, and he didn't know what to study on the pothole wall.
I took my saliva and calmed down, and handed the water bottle to the uncle. I didn't care about Deng Min sitting next to me, and went to the old man in a few steps.
"Let's rest quickly, we'll probably stay here for a while."
It's stuffy and humid, not very breathable.
I judged that it was quite far from the exit, otherwise at least there would be flowing wind constantly blowing in.
But the old man shook his head, staring at the wall without blinking, and the bloodshots in his eyes were clearly visible.
