But Zhou Rui shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be that bad. I guess it's just a broken bone at most..."
"Let me show you first and then talk about it!" Xu Liqiang untied Zhou Rui's shirt and checked without further explanation, only to find that his left side was covered in black and blue, which looked really serious.
After Xu Liqiang gently pressed a few points, Zhou Rui said it was not very painful. He then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It shouldn't be as serious as it looks. If you really can't leave, you can only stay where you are and rest." , I’ll go out and find someone to save you.”
When Zhou Rui heard this, he quickly waved his hands and said, "I know my own body well. I can't climb up, but walking shouldn't be a big problem. Let's find a way out as soon as possible before it gets dark."
Seeing that Zhou Rui could still persist, Xu Liqiang didn't say anything else, but went over to help him move forward little by little... The corridor ahead had no traces of artificial excavation. It should have been formed naturally, so there was no trace of the road under his feet. It's so easy to walk in the air raid shelter.
The air in the cave is very humid, and you can hear the sound of dripping water from time to time. There are moss-covered stones under your feet, which are wet and slippery, making it difficult to walk... Zhou Rui almost slipped a few times.
Xu Liqiang saw that Zhou Rui was having a hard time walking, so he suggested that he go back the same way, and then he climbed up to find rescue. But Zhou Rui said that he could still persist... Xu Liqiang knew that Zhou Rui was sometimes stubborn, so he had to help him move forward.
But while walking, the searchlight on Zhou Rui's head suddenly illuminated a flash of red. He was a little surprised and said, "Hadron... what do you think that is!?"
After hearing this, Xu Liqiang took a few steps forward, and suddenly he paused. Then he quickly walked back, supported Zhou Rui and walked back. Zhou Rui looked confused and was helped back by him. After a few steps, he quickly grabbed him and asked, "What's wrong? What did you see?"
Xu Liqiang said with an ugly face, "There is no road ahead. Let's go back the way we came. If it doesn't work, I will carry you up on my back..."
"Impossible? If there is no road ahead, where would the people worshiping the stone statue come in?" Zhou Rui said with a look of disbelief.
But this time Xu Liqiang insisted on walking back. Seeing that he couldn't defeat him, Zhou Rui had no choice but to say, "Are you sure you can carry me up?"
Xu Liqiang glanced at Zhou Rui, then nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely not leave you alone..."
Then the two returned to the hole where Zhou Rui fell before. Xu Liqiang pulled hard on the rope hanging at the hole. After confirming that it should be able to withstand the weight of the two people, he took out the rock climbing equipment from his backpack and put it on. tidy.
Zhou Rui said worriedly when he saw it, "You can't pull me up by myself, and now you have to add your own weight, are you sure you can do it?"
But Xu Liqiang said without hesitation, "Don't worry, I can use the ascender to take you up... After all, my past few years as a volunteer in the rescue team were not in vain."
After Xu Liqiang finished speaking, he took out the rope from Zhou Rui's backpack, tied him tightly behind him, and then stuck the rope climbing device on the hanging rope. Then with a hard pull, the two of them hung on the climbing rope.
Perhaps because he was worried that Zhou Rui would be scared, Xu Liqiang did not forget to comfort him and said, "Don't worry, this climbing rope is very strong. It's only a few meters away. I can bring you up no matter what."
Having said that, climbing a rope with a person on your back is not that easy. In addition, although the climbing rope is strong, the tree trunk where the rope is hung may not be reliable, so Xu Liqiang must climb up as quickly as possible... …
With the help of the ascender, although Xu Liqiang had to carry the weight of two people to climb up, it was much less laborious than pulling up from above without any fulcrum, so in the end Xu Liqiang took Zhou Rui with him from the entrance of the cave. Climbed up.
After Xu Liqiang untied the rope that tied Zhou Rui, the two of them lay down on the ground to rest. Xu Liqiang was tired, but Zhou Rui was scared, because he was really worried that the tree trunk above his head was not strong, and the two of them would fall again. Fall down.
After a while, Xu Liqiang stood up and said to Zhou Rui, "Are you okay? Did you press your ribs just now?"
Zhou Rui sat up slowly and said, "Fortunately...I was really worried that this piece of wood wouldn't be able to withstand our weight."
Seeing that Zhou Rui was fine, Xu Liqiang wanted to take him out of here as soon as possible. After all, his ribs were seriously injured and he needed to seek medical treatment quickly. So he helped Zhou Rui up from the ground and said, "Let's go out first." Bar."
At that time, Zhou Rui also thought that the two of them had escaped from trouble, but what he never expected was that it was just the beginning of a nightmare... Because just when the two of them were about to go out, they were surprised to find that two people appeared in front of them. Exactly the same corridor.
"How...why are there two corridors!?" Xu Liqiang said with a surprised look on his face.
Zhou Rui was a little confused for a while, because they didn't look back at all when they came in, so they didn't know there were two corridors here, let alone which corridor they came out of...
"What should we do now? Do you still remember which side we came from?" Xu Liqiang was at a loss for ideas.
Zhou Rui shook his head and said, "I didn't notice that there was another corridor..."
After hearing this, Xu Liqiang sighed and said, "No matter what, just choose any one. It's not far from the exit anyway. If you choose the wrong one, just turn back and take the other one."
After hearing this, Zhou Rui smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that this is the only way..."
But Xu Liqiang was still a little worried about Zhou Rui's injury, so he asked in a deep voice, "Can you still persist?"
After hearing this, Zhou Rui swatted his hand away and said, "Of course it's okay. It doesn't hurt anymore. You don't need to help me go..."
In order to prove that his words were true, Zhou Rui took the lead and walked into one of the corridors. Seeing this, Xu Liqiang had to follow quickly... After the two entered the corridor, they didn't see any difference from the one they came in before. I thought it should be this way, but after walking for a long time, I still couldn’t see the previous exit.
"Hadron... we may have made the wrong choice. I remember that the corridor we came in before was only a few dozen meters away, but why can't we reach the end of this one?" Zhou Rui said as he walked, but he waited. After a while, there was no reply from Qiangzi, so he turned around and said, "Am I talking to you... Qiangzi?"
As a result, when Zhou Rui turned around, he found that there was no one behind him. There was no trace of Xu Liqiang anywhere. He suddenly panicked, so he turned around and walked back without thinking, shouting as he walked, "Hadron? Hadron!" !”
