We have said not to touch or touch things randomly, but countless experiences and lessons have told us that rules will always be broken.
Gao Wenwu obviously wanted to go up, but Wei Yuan said calmly in the headset: "Don't move anything, you and Zhao Ying will stay down below to continue completing the task."
Gao Wenwu frowned: "But..." I don't care?
Wei Yuan said: "Let Ashan handle it by himself, and you take care of Zhao Ying." He believed in his teammates and could deal with the danger on his own.
Gao Wenwu could only stop and felt a sound like a mountain collapsing and the earth cracking above his head.
Jiang Shan pulled Zhang Zheng and ran away like crazy. There was billowing black dust in front of her... A lamp also fell down from the ceiling. She moved and dodged between the dust and various obstacles. The most aggressive ones were not the bulky ones. Instead of the bookshelf, countless books flew down like crazy.
I never knew how much a book weighed before. Only when hundreds or even countless books fell down on my face did I understand what it felt like. His body seemed to be constantly hit by falling iron blocks. Jiang Shan only had time to drag Zhang Zheng to avoid the most critical parts. Some of the falling iron had to be resisted.
Jiang Shan also lost her flashlight while running, or in other words, she could only throw it away because she had to drag Zhang Zheng with one hand, and the other hand occasionally needed to be used as a shield to block flying books. On balance, the flashlight can only be temporarily discarded.
…
By the time Zhang Zheng recovered from his brain failure, he had already been slipped onto the stairs by Jiang Shanti.
Next to her, Jiang Shan's head and face were covered in dust. She was lowering her head to dust herself off, while Zhang Zheng was looking at her in complete confusion.
"The passage leading downstairs is blocked." Jiang Shan said calmly into the headset.
A huge bookshelf was scattered into countless broken pieces of wood, which were piled up at the entrance of the stairs. Books were scattered all over the place, like a ruin in a sea of books.
After a long time, Wei Yuan's voice came: "As long as everything is okay."
Gao Wenwu and Zhao Ying also breathed a sigh of relief. The movement just now felt like the building was about to collapse, but it turned out to be okay.
Zhang Zheng: "...What just happened?"
Why did all the bookshelves suddenly collapse? He didn't do anything, right?
"Are you injured?" Zhao Ying's voice came.
Jiang Shan looked at Zhang Zheng, who was wearing protective equipment, "No." Jiang Shan automatically ignored the word "we" in you.
"Jiang Shan, you'd better find a way to get down. It's safer for everyone to be together." Gao Wenwu said cautiously.
"No need," Jiang Shan said, "Everyone should continue searching and it would be wise to finish and leave as soon as possible."
Wei Yuan said after a while: "Ashan is right, time is more important now. If we can search the entire area early, we can get out as soon as possible."
Everyone was silent for a moment.
Jiang Shan raised her head, looked at the winding stairs, and continued to search upwards. She asked, "Can I leave?"
Zhang Zheng was still sitting on the steps, looking like he was suffering from trauma and stress, but he was not injured. Even if his legs were weak from fright, it was time for him to recover.
Zhang Zheng stared at Jiang Shan: "Your speed just now..."
To be honest, Zhang Zheng didn't even feel that he was "walking" just now. His feet seemed to be hanging in the air because Jiang Shan was so fast that when he was pulling him, his whole body seemed to be floating...
His legs were weak not because he was afraid, but because he was "floating".
After a while, he finally heard the sound of Jiang Shan and Zhang Zheng stepping on the stairs. Gao Wenwu looked at Zhao Ying: "Let's continue..."
Wei Yuan's team formation method is indeed very particular. Teaming up with Jiang Shan and Zhang Zheng obviously has a higher safety factor and ensures that Gao Wenwu and Zhao Ying can concentrate on searching without additional interference.
Zhang Zheng suddenly became much quieter now. He didn't even stick to Jiang Shan like before, keeping a distance of about half a meter from Jiang Shan without saying a word.
Jiang Shan pulled out the radio from his neck. He was running so fast just now that he was afraid of shaking it off.
She turned the volume of the radio to maximum. It stands to reason that if there was such a loud noise just now, if there were really survivors in the library, they would have noticed it.
But the radio was still extremely quiet at this time.
Even Jiang Shan felt a little disappointed and frustrated. She shook her head and stuffed the radio into her neck again, so that she would know immediately if there was any movement.
At this time, the two of them had arrived at the new floor. They saw countless densely packed bookshelves in front of them again. The layout seemed to be similar to before. There were fewer windows on this floor, only two on the left and right, and the natural light coming in was even brighter. The scarcity of them made the entire space appear darker and more depressing.
Next to him, Zhang Zheng raised his flashlight.
He might have been in a daze when he was running for his life, but he was holding on to the only thing in his hand, a flashlight.
"There's something I know I shouldn't say." Zhang Zheng spoke again, "Just now, when you were pulling me, something seemed to be tugging at my feet."
Jiang Shan was tugging on his arm, but of course he wouldn't tug on his feet at the same time.
Zhang Zheng's tongue was cold: "I know, you, you might say that I am nervous."
Zhang Zheng turned off the headset and didn't turn on the intercom. He whispered directly to Jiang Shan. "I, I have been afraid to look at my feet. Can you... take a photo for me with a flashlight?"
Zhang Zheng really didn't dare, so he could only beg Jiang Shan.
Jiang Shan knew from Zhang Zheng's expression that he was not joking. Her eyes flickered and she looked at Zhang Zheng's feet.
Of course she could see Zhang Zheng's feet clearly without using a flashlight. She watched for a long time without making a sound.
Zhang Zheng held the flashlight and almost froze, "What, how...is there anything?"
Jiang Shan still didn't say a word. There was something dark and indescribable, wrapped around Zhang Zheng's ankle.
But he had a protective suit on him, and the thing cut the protective suit halfway, and at first glance it really looked like the shape of a human hand.
But approaching science, Jiang Shan, an atheist, wanted to see more clearly.
Zhang Zheng suddenly shined a flashlight on it. The moment the light drifted past, Zhang Zheng saw his own feet. The surrounding area was clean and there was nothing.
Huh?
"I was scared to death. I thought there was something there. Why did you look like that? Did you do it on purpose?" Zhang Zheng looked happy, and then stared at Jiang Shan. Unexpectedly, he really knows people but doesn't know their hearts. This girl saw Even those who act serious will also play tricks on others.
In fact, Jiang Shan's face flashed with astonishment when the flashlight's light passed by. The moment the light came on, the "hand" wrapped around Zhang Zheng's ankle disappeared in an instant.
"Still pretending?" Zhang Zheng glared at her.
Jiang Shan withdrew his gaze: "Let's continue the search."
Zhang Zheng snorted and then turned the headset communication back on. Fortunately, he was afraid of affecting Zhao Ying and Gao Wenwu just now, but nothing happened.
"I remember you said before that Gao Wenwu seems to be the doctor in the team?" Jiang Shan suddenly asked after taking two steps.
With Gao Wenwu's physique, one really wouldn't expect him to be in the medical field. Think of Dr. Huo, who was so weak before.
Zhang Zheng's talkative voice opened up again: "He was a team doctor who was sent to fight in xzhou before, and then he was poached by Old Wei during the mountain search." So Gao Wenwu really lives up to his name, and in the game He is the kind of teammate who can fight and increase health.
Jiang Shan took advantage of Zhang Zheng's lack of attention and glanced at his feet again. The thing did not appear again.
