Chapter 317 Aqi's Adventure (Liu Yingzi)
Yu Aqi thought for a long time and asked, "Miss Yingzi, how high above the ground am I now? Can you see it?"
Liu Yingzi said, "I... I'll try..." After a while, she said, "About three or four feet... No, no, it should be five or six feet." She estimated that the place where she was hiding could not directly see where Aqi was.
Yu Aqi took a deep breath, thinking that at such a high place, even if he broke through this strange thick tube, he would probably fall to death. Suddenly, he cursed himself for being stupid. If he could really break through the tube, he would accept falling to death. The problem now was that this strange tube was very tough and could not be broken at all.
He had no choice but to ask Liu Yingzi for help: "Can you think of a way to save me first? Then we can think of a solution together."
Liu Yingzi seemed very hesitant, and after a long while she said, "I...I don't dare."
Yu Aqi thought that Yingzi must be afraid of the white-eyed monster, but it was not her fault. If she was caught by the monster, it would be no joke. But in this situation, I was trapped in this strange tube, and she was hiding in the cracks of the rocks. In the end, they were just waiting to die. I had no ties, so it didn't matter if I died. She was a girl, and she was so young, wouldn't it be a pity for her to die? Then he thought, damn, wasn't I also young?
"You only said you didn't dare, but you didn't say you couldn't. It looks like there is a way. Can you tell me about it?"
"This tube can also move. If you poke it a few times with a knife or something, the person wrapped inside can slide out."
"how do you know?"
"I saw that white-eyed monster do this." Liu Yingzi replied.
After hearing her words, Yu Aqi felt as if he saw a ray of light in the darkness. He was very happy and began to persuade Liu Yingzi, telling her not to be afraid, but to be bolder and braver.
Liu Yingzi said, "It's easy for you to say that. You haven't seen that white-eyed monster. Do you know how scary it is?"
Yu Aqi was speechless and deliberately angered her: "If that's the case, forget it. I don't mind. It's quite comfortable to stay in this tube, neither too hot nor too cold, and I don't seem to be hungry. On the contrary, you, even if you are not killed by the monster, will starve to death in here sooner or later."
Liu Yingzi said nothing, as if she was seriously considering his words.
Yu Aqi went on to say, "Before, there was a herdsman with date-seed eyes and a round chin. He held my hand and cried, saying that his daughter was stolen by bandits and asked me to rescue her at all costs. He also said that if his daughter was gone, he didn't want to live anymore and he was going to find a cliff to jump off... Oh, he was crying and snotting, so pitiful... It breaks my heart when I think about it now." He talked nonsense to ease the gloomy atmosphere in the cave so as not to scare Liu Yingzi.
Liu Yingzi said hurriedly: "You're talking nonsense, my father would never do that!"
Yu Aqi said: "How do you know he won't do that? His precious daughter is dead, what's the point of him living? What hope can he have? If it were me, I wouldn't be able to live anymore and would have to commit suicide!"
Liu Yingzi did not answer him, but asked: "Who are you and what is your name?"
Yu Aqi pretended to be serious and answered: "I am from Anfeng City in Cangmu Country. I am currently the 25th general of the 8th team of the Donggen Camp of the Dongzhong Army in Bicheng. People call me General Yu Aqi."
Liu Yingzi burst out laughing and said, "How shameless! You are just a soldier in the Donggen Camp of the Dongzhong Army. How can you call yourself General Yu Aqi? Who gave you the title?"
"Does being a general require a title? All you need is great ability. General Bi Ye wasn't given the title by others, but because he was so capable, everyone was willing to recognize him as the general."
"General Bi Ye is very capable, what are your abilities?"
"How come I have no ability? I got into this strange tube and survived, and I felt very comfortable. I'm afraid there is no one else in the world who can do this!"
Liu Yingzi was amused by Yu Aqi and started to laugh. After laughing for a while, she said, "I'll find a chance to stab your tube a few times. I can't guarantee that it will be able to spit you out. If it fails, you can't blame me."
Yu Aqi said: "How can I blame you? If it doesn't work, we will just die in this cave. It would be fun to be a pair of male and female monsters."
Liu Yingzi thought he was very interesting and said with a smile, "Hey, tell us all the tricks in your mind. What if that white-eyed monster can understand us?"
Yu Aqi laughed and said, "What else can we do? This trick has to fail. The three of us are waiting to die of old age in this cave. It's also quite interesting for three monsters to talk, brag, and fight every day."
The two of them laughed loudly, and the eerie and terrifying atmosphere in the underground cave disappeared instantly.
Liu Yingzi told Yu Aqi to be quiet and began to listen carefully to the movements of the long-legged white-eyed monster. The cave became silent again. She did not dare to take any action because she did not find the white-eyed monster.
After waiting for a long time, I saw the black shadow of the monster crawling around in the cave. Finally, it climbed onto a high-hanging tree tube and sniffed around on one of the protrusions. It seemed that there was someone inside.
Opportunity cannot be missed, so Liu Yingzi hurriedly jumped out from the crevice of the rock, ran to the tree trunk where Yu Aqi was, drew the short knife from his waist, and stabbed the end hanging on the ground three or four times.
The tree tube really reacted and began to shake violently.
Yu Aqi only felt the force wrapped tightly around his body loosen, and the whole person slid down rapidly, finally sliding out of the tree tube and falling to the ground with a plop.
Fortunately, the mouth of the tree tube was only one or two feet off the ground, so there would be no harm if he fell to the ground.
The cave was not particularly dark. When I looked up, I saw a four or five foot wide hole above my head, and the light leaked in from there. Unfortunately, the hole was six or seven feet high from the bottom of the cave, so it was not easy to climb up.
There was a strange shadow swaying at the entrance of the cave, and sure enough, there was a terrifying monster with long legs and white eyes!
The monster had very long and thin hands and feet, a pair of large white bulging eyes under its forehead, and its nose kept moving, revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth, which looked very creepy. At this time, it was holding the protrusion of a tree tube and sniffing it constantly, as if checking whether the thing inside was dead or alive.
In addition to the thick tree tube that wrapped Yu Aqi, there were dozens or even hundreds of much thinner tree tubes hanging from the ceiling of the cave. Every three to five feet, there was a small section that emitted a deep blue fluorescence, like dozens or even hundreds of glowing strange insects, illuminating the entire cave in black and blue.
