Chapter 149 Crossroads

How far can a person run while holding his breath?!

If someone says that he can last for more than five minutes, please show him a set of combos.

In fact, I only lasted less than a minute, knowing full well that I would ingest highly toxic substances when I breathed.

This is a road to challenge and surpass oneself. Not everyone has the same terrible will as Zhang Haidi. Even if there is the threat of death, they may not be able to persist to the end. With the high-intensity physical exertion, I feel like my lungs are like

A balloon stretched to its limit would burst in my abdomen at any time, and the area around my heart was unbearably hot, even hotter than strong liquor in my throat.

Gradually, everything in front of me began to become hazy.

I don't know if this is a symptom caused by poisoning or lack of oxygen. I only know that now I am willing to give anything for a breath of fresh air, even if I sell my soul to the devil.

"I can't control that much. I would rather be poisoned to death than suffocated to death."

I finally couldn't bear it anymore, so I stopped and put one hand on the wall, breathing heavily.

Unfortunately, I didn't feel any sense of relief. Instead, my throat and eye mucous membranes were extremely uncomfortable and had a stinging feeling.

I turned to look at the others. Zhang Xinya's face was slightly flushed, and Brother Yaozi had bags under his eyes. Everyone was abnormal. However, I don't know if it was because Lao Bai could smell the bitter almonds, so his poisoning symptoms were particularly serious.

, he ran for a few steps and then suddenly stopped. His face twitched, his mouth was crooked, his eyes were slanted, and some foam came out of the corners of his mouth. His body was stretched straight, and his bones and joints were completely unable to move. Unknowingly, he thought he had suffered an electric shock.

This is a typical paroxysmal spasm. It is a state that only appears after a deep poisoning. But Lao Bai didn't care. Even when he was convulsing, he still had to jump forward. He had a strong desire to survive. After I passed

When he was around, he didn't forget to give me a hand, so I struggled to straighten my body and quickly escaped from here with him.

This time, I no longer held my breath deliberately, I just lowered my breathing rate appropriately.

Signs of poisoning soon appeared on me. There was a strong feeling of nausea brewing in my chest. My eyes were burning. I finally felt the bitter almond smell that Lao Bai mentioned, but it was not smelled, but in my dry mouth.

What I tasted inside, everything in front of me began to become chaotic, and my brain's thinking ability was sluggish, like a clockwork machine, only knowing how to run forward blindly.

After an unknown amount of time, the greenery gradually faded away, the cave turned into a narrow tunnel, and the surrounding area suddenly became dry...

"Come out, come out..."

Lao Bai grabbed me and said breathlessly: "I can't smell the bitter almond smell anymore."

He uses the unique skill of tampering with bones to find fragrance, and his sensitivity to smell is even more than that of a dog. As long as there is a trace of poisonous gas left in the air, he should be able to identify it immediately.

This shows that we should stay away from the poisonous gas area.

I breathed a huge sigh of relief. My legs were sore and my whole body was weak. I immediately sat down in the corridor, panting heavily.

While I was talking, Lao Bai started twitching again and knelt down in front of me. I was about to say stop being so polite and explain that he had absolutely nothing to do with his female elders. Then he hit me on the head.

On my belly,.

The symptoms of poisoning were too severe. I subconsciously looked at Zhang Xinya to ask what to do if I was poisoned by hydrogen cyanide. I found that Zhang Xinya, Brother Yaozi, and Lao Diaoye had already fallen asleep in a huddle, or were in a coma.

passed.

I was anxious for a moment and was about to get up to wake the three of them up. I had fallen asleep due to the poisoning. Didn’t I want to wake up? As a result, as soon as I held Lao Bai’s shoulders with my hands, I heard him farting like fried beans.

, one after another, mixed with some water sounds...

A stench filled the air...

I thought to myself that the symptoms of poisoning are different for people. Others are lethargic, but he is incontinent. I don’t know if he is affected by the thick stench. I just feel a surge in my stomach, tilt my head, and then

Vomited loudly,

This kind of vomiting is absolutely abnormal. In fact, I vomited so much that in the end there was nothing in my stomach, but I still kept retching. There was green liquid dripping from the corner of my mouth, which must be bile.

It wasn't until I couldn't lift any strength that the feeling of vomiting gradually disappeared. At this time, I had already forgotten Brother Yaozi and the others. It was as if all the bones in my body had been crushed. I turned over and leaned against the cold stone wall of the corridor.

, I felt like the world was spinning and my vision was getting blurry.

"It seems that we can't get out. It doesn't matter, we are buried here. We won't be alone on the road to hell!"

Lao Bai turned over and sat next to me. When he sat down, he made a weird "puff" sound, like the sound of a foot stepping on a rotten banana. I was confused and leaned against him and slowly closed my eyes.

When I closed my eyes, I could only vaguely see him sitting down for a moment, his expression was particularly ecstatic...

I seemed to have fallen into a strange dream.

In the dream, there is no one, nothing happens, only boundless darkness.

However, when the darkness enveloped me, it was like the twelfth lunar month of winter, when a thick quilt wrapped me airtight. Especially when I curled up, I felt an indescribable warmth and sense of security that made me feel comfortable.

I wish I could sleep until the end of time.

At least, I no longer have to hold the head of an acquaintance and stare at that sallow face...

Even if I occasionally wake up for a moment, I will wonder - is this the taste of death? If it stays like this, maybe it's not bad...

Even, there is a voice in my heart that keeps telling me - go to sleep, the world is so troubled, it would be great to just sleep like this, without having to look at the desperate screams of my companions and the ferocious faces at death, or in

Carrying the pressure of survival and the burden of the family, not to mention thinking about the comfort of his parents day and night, there is only tranquility and even... happiness here.

That's right, it's happiness.

In the darkness, everything slowed down, and I was wrapped in that weird warmth. It took me a long time to figure out that feeling with my not-so-quick thinking. It turned out that this was happiness.

Until...a burst of coldness for no reason enveloped me, the darkness was completely torn apart, and a bright light appeared in my world...

I got excited and subconsciously turned my head away. I suddenly woke up. Only then did I realize that Lao Bai was standing in front of me, holding a water bag in his hand. He pouted his mouth and took some water in his mouth. He sprayed it hard on my face.

.

Seeing that I woke up, Lao Bai still didn't give up. He immediately touched my forehead with his hand and looked at me with suspicion: "Is there something dirty harassing you while you are unconscious?"

I wiped the water stains on my face fiercely, rolled my upper lip under my nostrils and smelled it. I walked away from him with a look of disgust on my face, and said angrily: "What are you talking about?"

Lao Bai still had some doubts.

Immediately afterwards, three more stained faces came up to me, like three beggars, and it turned out to be Brother Yaozi and the three of them. They all woke up earlier than me.

"Are you sure you're okay?"

Zhang Xinya also said quite suspiciously: "When you were in a coma, you always said that death was so comfortable, as if you were promoting a cult. We were worried that something unclean was inducing you..."

I was startled, then turned my head away and said no.

Perhaps, the unclean things have already taken root in my heart, and have existed since the moment I helped Qi Ye sew up the corpse...

I thought to myself silently.

To say that Master Qi and I have a deep relationship that we deserve to live and die together, I am afraid even I would laugh. We have only been together for a long time, and we have not experienced the test of life and death together like Lao Bai and the others, but he let

I can't forget it. It's just that there is something called killing a chicken to scare the monkeys.

I know, maybe this is also a kind of psychological trauma.

After a moment of silence, I gradually adjusted my mood and subconsciously asked, "How long have we been unconscious for?"

"I don't know, it should take a long time."

It turns out that he relied on this to determine the length of time...

However, he then said, this time we really have to thank the King of Gu. We were all too poisoned and if we did not get timely treatment, we would definitely die. It was the King of Gu that swallowed the poison in us.

Moreover, perhaps the Gu King also played some protective role in this.

After all, all five of us were knocked down at that time. If the old fox attacked us, he could easily kill us.

"But at least we are all alive."

Brother Yaozi sighed: "Now, the biggest problem is right now."

As he spoke, he lined up the crowd and pointed ahead.

I found that we are now at a crossroads, where two vertical and horizontal corridors intersect.

"its not right!"

I said almost subconsciously: "I remember that when we were unconscious, we were not at such an intersection at all. The tomb passage there was straight..."

As I was talking, my words came to an abrupt end because I noticed the expressions on Brother Yaozi's and the others' faces. Apparently, they had already noticed this problem.

So, what exactly happens when we are in a coma?

Why do we suddenly appear in such a place when we wake up?

This problem is absolutely unsolvable for the five of us.

As soon as my heart moved, I immediately took out the wind chime and tried to communicate with Chang Yao.

Maybe, she is a witness.

"Don't ask me, I don't know either."

Zhang Yao answered quickly and in a cold voice: "Thank you for letting me experience the feeling of death again!"

Then, she didn't respond.

"Wan Niang'er said the same thing."

Zhang Xinya shrugged and said that she had already asked Wan Niang'er.

The reason is very simple. When several of us fell down due to poisoning, we were already dead in a sense. Whether it was Wan Niang'er and Zhang Xinya, or I and Zhang Yao, they were all connected as one body. When we were dying and unconscious,

Sometimes, they will also fall into a state of confusion, unable to feel the things around them at all!

After all, the only one who knows the answer is the Gu King!

It's a pity that Lao Bai doesn't have any means now, so he can only communicate very briefly with Gu King, and can't get any useful information at all.

"Moreover, King Gu fell into a deep sleep..."

Lao Bai said: "It was the first one to save me. At that time, I felt it crawling on my face in a daze. When I woke up, I found that all the poisoning symptoms on you had disappeared, and the Gu King was also lying on the bed.

He fell asleep next to me. Anyway, our survival must be related to it."

"who cares!"

Unable to figure it out, Brother Yaozi simply stopped thinking about it, waved his hand and shouted: "At least we are still alive. I want to see what tricks the old fox is playing and what kind of hell he has gotten us into!"
