Lu Yunan's fingertips scratched quickly on Li Ang's back. This was not out of nervousness or fear, but because the two of them had made a plan before.
If you are attacked and there is no time to communicate verbally, use this method to mark the climbing route for Li Ang.
With the sixth thoracic vertebra as the center, the place where the fingertips touch lightly is the cliff location that can be grasped, and the key point of the fingertips is the place where you can step on.
Jump, climb.
Li Ang tried his best to speed up. Lu Yunan marked the route for him with one hand. He raised the glow crossbow with the other hand. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the chasing spiders below. He completed the calculation and deduction in an instant, and then pulled the trigger.
stop--
The fine steel arrow twisted from the remains of the Talisman Disk passed through the gap in the spider web at an exquisite angle, avoiding the thick armor on the forehead of the giant spider at the front, and accurately hit its feet.
With a Kacha sound, the giant spider the size of a car had its three legs cut off in unison. It paused and rolled down from the spider web, carrying many smaller spiders with it and falling downwards.
Without enough time to observe the results of the battle, Lu Yunan bit the bow string with her tiger teeth, reset the bow string, reattached the arrow, and fired again.
The cluster of the second arrow was flat and wide, tearing apart layers of spider webs, causing the spiders to squeeze and collide with each other, delaying the attack for a while.
The third one, the fourth one...
Lu Yunan shot out arrows regularly and missed, using her ability to foresee and block the pursuit of the spiders.
However, the clicking sounds of spider footsteps were still coming from all directions.
The arrow quickly missed and Lu Yunan lowered her arm holding the glow crossbow in despair. No matter how you deduce it, there is no option to escape from the fate you see.
Are you still affected by the Liyuan environment?
The damp vapor and the cloth covering his face made his breathing blocked and his thinking sluggish, so he couldn't find so many obvious clues.
For example, the sudden decrease in the number of wild creatures around, the heavy feeling of accumulation of spider silk...
"hold me."
Li Ang suddenly said.
"What?"
Lu Yunan was stunned for a moment, and instinctively hugged each other tightly with both hands.
Li Ang suddenly let go of his hands and let himself fall downwards.
The strong wind roared by his ears, and a strong feeling of weightlessness enveloped his whole body. Lu Yunan pursed her lips tightly and subconsciously wanted to close her eyes. However, thinking of the situation between the two of them, she resisted her instinct and opened her eyes to look down.
The two of them fell down the cliff, avoiding the spider swarm by a hair's breadth, and passed straight through the thick layer of fog.
Zheng!
When the spiders above had turned into tiny black dots, Li Ang used all his strength to pull out his three-edged spear and stab it at the cliff.
The blade of the gun penetrated the earth and rock and sank deeply into the rock. The two figures suddenly slowed down in the air.
Li Ang clutched the three-edged spear tightly, his hands so hard that his knuckles looked bloodless.
The triangular spear cut a nearly two-meter-long mark on the rock, and then stopped its fall.
Li Ang panted violently, regained some strength, and then turned around and asked, "Are you okay?"
"fine."
Lu Yunan's face turned pale and she gritted her teeth and said, "We need to move immediately. I don't know if those spiders will chase us."
"Um."
Li Ang carried Lu Yunan on his back and moved sideways until he climbed to a raised stone platform. After confirming that the spiders above were not chasing him, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Renovate it."
Li Ang slowly put Lu Yunan down, lay down on the ground, and rubbed his sore shoulders.
Just now, he was on the line between life and death, and he jumped before he had time to think about the risk. It was only now that the feeling of fear came to his heart.
It's really just a little bit...
He held Li Ang's head in his soft hands and placed it on his lap.
Lu Yunan looked at the young man silently, gently squeezed his shoulders, and brushed away the light spider silk from his hair that had begun to atomize into small droplets.
For the rest of their lives, neither of them spoke, and they stayed like this for a quarter of an hour.
"Are you thirsty?"
Li Ang climbed up from Lu Yunan's knee pillow and asked casually.
"Kind of."
Lu Yunan nodded. They originally planned to open the umbrella and absorb the water vapor in the air to get water, but now they know that there are spider silks in the mist, so naturally they cannot drink the water obtained by this method.
So Li Ang went to chop some bamboo and came back.
This kind of bamboo is common in the south. A small amount of water is stored in the bamboo joints, and when accumulated, it is enough for two people to drink.
After solving the drinking water problem, the mentally and physically exhausted two men reluctantly cheered up and dug a hole in the wall of the stone platform.
Relying on the pothole, we set up a tent, placed some bamboo in front of the tent as a cover, and prepared to spend the night.
After climbing the cliff for a day, Li Ang was so tired that his whole body ached. He thought he would fall asleep soon, but as he lay in the tent, his sleepiness disappeared inexplicably.
This was the closest he had come to death in his life. He had faced life and death threats before, but none of them were as thrilling as this one.
When he first came to Chang'an and was threatened by Jiao Cheng with a crossbow to help him explore the underground palace of the Sword Immortal, he still had poison as a back-up;
At the Jialan Sect ruins, when facing the Demon Buddha, he still had Mo Si as his trump card;
Even last time in Xingzhou, when faced with the crazy Jianquan monk, he could still summon Mo Si and walk away.
Only this time, the sea of qi is sealed, and Mo Si cannot sense it. All alienated objects such as the Book of All Souls and the Lotus of the Suffering Realm are ineffective.
It's like going back to a time before I embarked on the path of spiritual practice.
Lu Yunan, who was responsible for the night watch, heard Li Ang's tossing and turning in the dark tent and asked softly: "Can't you sleep?"
"Um."
Li Ang changed his position to make himself more comfortable, "Tell me, why did we travel through time?"
This question troubled him all day long. It is true that he gained precious family affection, friendship, and maybe love in this world.
But he still couldn't figure out the reason for all this.
Why me?
"Well..."
Lu Yunan pondered, "Are you asking about the reason or the meaning?
If you want to travel through time,
I'm not a scientist, an astronaut, or Colonel Chu from the Qianlong Base, I'm just an ordinary otaku.
The person who sent me to this world may be gods, Buddhas, aliens, or beings that I cannot understand.
According to Occam's razor, do not add entities unless necessary. There are too many possibilities and too little information, so there is no need to delve deeper.
As for the meaning...
I'm not the same as you. I know for sure that I died of illness in my previous life and then traveled through time.
The meaning of time travel to me is equivalent to rebirth after death. "
"Is that so?"
Li Ang was a little disappointed with this answer. If he knew clearly that the time travel was caused by a certain god and Buddha, he would feel more relaxed.
"That's it."
Lu Yunan nodded and said with a smile: "It's a pity that your memory before time travel is incomplete. Considering that you are a doctor, maybe we have met in previous lives. For example, I have been to the hospital where you are."
