Chapter 391: Is it over?
Everyone’s situation is undoubtedly very bad now, but we all understand that the worse the situation, the more calm we need to be.
We forced ourselves to calm down, and everyone got together and began to discuss the next action carefully.
First of all, we all feel that we have a high probability of being in the Devil Lake now.
The criterion for judgment is that the water of the Devil Lake is poisonous.
I tried to take off the diving suit with one hand, and put it into the lake and felt it, and sure enough, I felt the toxins here.
However, there is another small possibility, that is, we have not been to the sea outside the deserted island. Maybe there is a place connected to the Devil's Lake, so it has a certain toxicity.
Of course, considering that this possibility is very small, we can ignore it for the time being.
"Looking at the sun above our heads, we swim in this direction. We can't continue to delay. We must find land, even a small piece of island!"
I thought about it and said quickly.
Everyone had no objection to my decision, so they followed me and started swimming.
In fact, there is a compass on our diving suit, but it is regrettable that it was corroded in the body of the giant monster before and is now unusable.
After a long journey inside the monster, we are already exhausted now, but we have no choice but to force ourselves to cheer up and swim hard.
This is all for living!
Swimming in the water is not much worse than what we consumed in the monster's body just now.
After all, the resistance to water is really extraordinary.
Not long after, we were all tired and pale and panting.
But what is desperate is that our front, back, left and right are still the water without any ups and downs.
My physical condition is getting worse and worse, because I have not received enough rest and absorbed too many toxins. At this time, even if there is a curse that keeps resisting the invasion of those poisons, the poison in my body is still aggravating.
My face was pale and my hands began to tremble constantly, almost to the point where I could not move.
My situation was not told to anyone else.
One is that he doesn't want Qian'er to worry, and the other is that he should be wary of this devil, Kogoro.
However, judging from the current situation, I can't hide it anymore.
"Brother Xiao Zhang, what's wrong with you! Don't have anything to do!"
Qian'er hugged me, tears flowing in anxiety.
I lay in her arms and looked at her pretty face, and I was also very moved.
You have to know how calm and powerful Qian'er is.
When she was a few years old, she lived alone in the wilderness. What dangers had she encountered before?
But at this time, when she saw something happened to me, she instantly cried like the little flowers in the greenhouse.
It can be seen that my position in Qian'er's heart is really important.
At this time, Yu Chengyao swam quickly to me, took off the mine lamp above her head, pulled my eyes and shone it. The strong light made me feel uncomfortable, but I knew that she was helping me check my body.
But after the inspection, Yu Chengyao, who had always been calm and rational, looked a little panicked.
"This... Zhang Qi, you are so poisoned, why didn't you say it earlier!"
Yu Chengyao pinched my hand and shouted anxiously, wishing she could slap me twice.
I smiled bitterly, I thought I would be fine. I know how many times I encountered poison that was hit by blood and was still able to survive. But I didn't know that this time, this long-term chronic contact with poison almost defeated me.
It turns out that I am not invincible by all poisons.
My curse may be able to block toxins in a short period of time, even the strongest poison can be used, but long-term, uninterrupted erosion of poisons can exceed its tolerance range.
This may be a disadvantage, but it may also be the key to lifting the curse!
It's just a pity that I probably can't wait for the day when I find a way to remove the curse.
I asked Yuchengyao if I was helpless.
She smiled reluctantly, then comforted me and said, "Don't think about it, how could you die? Don't you know what kind of physical quality you are? You will get better!"
Qian'er also asked her several times if I would be in trouble.
Yu Chengyao kept nodding, but there were warm tears on her face, which kept rolling down.
She, a guy who always has a cold face on weekdays, suddenly cried, like an iceberg melting, giving people a unique beauty, which made me reluctant to take my eyes away.
It seems that as time goes by, Yu Chengyao's deep feelings for me not only did not disappear, but instead became stronger.
This made me feel very guilty. Is the person she loves me or the phantom in my dream?
Or maybe, in the heart of Yuchengyao, we have already overlapped together?
Maybe this will be a puzzle I will never be able to solve.
Because, looking at Yu Chengyao's appearance, I'm probably going to die in this devil's lake that looks like an endless lake.
Actually, this is a good thing.
After all, my curse has developed to a very terrifying level. When I think back on the strange things that have happened to me, I will have nightmares.
Maybe it was a blessing to die like this.
However, I still have a sense of attachment to life and unwillingness to death in my heart.
How beautiful this world is, but unfortunately I am leaving.
I took a deep breath and grabbed Qian'er and Yu Chengyao's hands tightly: "When I die, you must destroy my body, preferably burn it, or cut it into pieces. As for why, Yao, you understand, I don't want to have peace one day even if I die..."
Having said that, my body became increasingly weak. If Qian'er and Yu Chengyao hadn't supported me hard, I would have drifted away along the water. At this moment, I would have been weak even when I spoke.
"If I really can't destroy my body on the sea, then I'll find a way to sink me into the sea and never bring it back to the land!"
Yu Chengyao looked at me with tears in her eyes, gritting her silver teeth to prevent herself from crying.
Qian'er was already crying loudly, "No, Brother Xiao Zhang, you won't die, you won't die!"
"Silly girl, I don't want to die either, but people will die one day. I probably just came earlier than others."
In fact, death may be a kind of liberation for me, a way to get rid of the so-called fate.
And at this moment, before I die, I still have a wish.
