The guy successfully hit me and put me behind him. He didn't pursue me. Instead, to my surprise, he turned around and ran away. He kept playing the damn flute while running.
After hearing the sound of the flute, those damn vines in the stone room became even crazier, trying to wrap themselves around myself and Xiong Ming as hard as they could.
I covered my nose and got up from the ground. The severe pain made my whole body a little dazed. I held on to the stone wall beside me to relax for a while.
At this time, Xiong Ming, who was surrounded by vines in the middle of the stone room, happened to look towards me.
Just listen, the boy Xiong Ming shouted in the middle of the stone room: "Hu Tian, there is someone!"
The other person in the middle of the stone room heard the sound and hurriedly turned his head towards me and shouted: "His grandma's flute is probably played by that guy! Don't let him run away!"
When I heard this, ten thousand grass and mud horses rushed through my heart.
Fortunately, the vines in the middle of the stone room slowed down the footsteps of the other Xiong Ming and me, giving me enough opportunities to escape.
I pinched the bridge of my nose hard with my thumb and index finger. Ignoring the bloody nose, I ran after the guy in the direction where he escaped.
As I ran, I thought to myself: "Grandma, I actually took the blame for that guy! Damn it... don't let me catch you, or I'll make you look good!"
The guy seemed to be very familiar with this place and was still running very fast even in the absence of light.
At first, I was hesitant to follow behind, but gradually, I couldn't care so much anymore, and I ran away and chased after him at the risk of my life.
Suddenly, the guy in front of me stumbled, as if he tripped on something.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but feel overjoyed. I thought to myself, "This is a rare opportunity." I immediately took two quick steps, and then I flew towards the guy.
My pounce seemed to catch the guy by surprise. He turned around and tried to run away, but it was already too late.
I rushed over like a tiger, opened my arms and hugged the guy's waist, then used a cane leg under my feet, took a big step forward with my right foot, and stumbled hard on his back foot. At the same time, I I used my strength to lower my shoulders and push them forward. After this smooth movement, the guy's center of gravity was gone, and he was thrown to the ground by me. The back of his head hit the ground with a "thud".
The fall was very hard. Others would have lost their breath immediately after the fall, but the boy in me only let out a slight groan.
The next second, the guy under me curled up, and then punched me in the face.
The punch came so fast that I was startled and hurriedly turned my head to avoid it. After cursing in a deep voice, I raised my arm and punched the guy on the ground in the face.
But what I didn't expect at all was that this guy turned out to be a master of fighting. Halfway through my punch, I suddenly felt that my sleeve was being grabbed by him.
I screamed in my heart and was about to pull back, but the guy suddenly wrapped his legs around my waist. This was a typical Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu closed defense.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is somewhat similar to Japanese Judo, but it focuses on grappling on the ground and uses strangulation and joint submission techniques as its main offensive methods.
I often play with this thing with my friends, so the moment the guy wrapped his legs around my waist, I naturally knew what he was going to do. If I continued to smash my fist at the guy on the ground regardless, I would probably kill him. Before he could hit him, he had to be hanged on his back first.
Seeing that the situation was bad, I hurriedly pulled my arm back, but that guy seemed to have known what I was going to do. Just as I was about to pull back, his waist, legs, and legs exerted force at the same time, and then he grabbed the back of my neck with his right hand. My balance was unstable, and he dragged me forcefully again. Back to the ground.
The guy's right hand was tightly around my neck, and his legs were tightly around my waist. Although his movements were described as "ambiguous", at this time, I was tightly controlled by that guy. I think only those who have experienced this helplessness can understand the pain.
I supported the ground with one hand, trying to keep a slight gap between my body and the guy, to prevent him from using his killing move to choke me instantly, while raising my other arm high.
I gritted my teeth and squeezed out a few words from between my teeth for a long time, "Master... now I want you to taste the feeling of having your nose blown out... "
Then, I planned to swing my elbow and hit the guy on the ground in the nose.
But what I didn't expect was that when I just raised my elbow, the guy on the ground suddenly spoke.
I just heard him say in my ear in a deep voice: "Go straight forward along this road. After looking at the greener crystal stones, you will be able to find the ancient desert city... Don't worry about anything along the way... When you get to the ancient city... ...Where is there someone waiting for you... He has been waiting for you... "
"What?" This guy's sudden words made me stunned. I hurriedly asked: "What did you say? Who is waiting for me?"
I asked several questions in succession, but the guy on the ground seemed to have no intention of answering my questions.
I wanted to ask further, but the guy suddenly turned around and kicked me in the stomach.
The kick of the guy on the ground was so powerful that he kicked me more than a meter away. He used the force to slide back a few meters, then turned over and jumped up from the ground, running towards the darkness. .
I grabbed my stomach and got up from the ground. It was already too late to chase after him. The guy had already disappeared into the darkness and his whereabouts were unknown.
"Damn it!" I spat bloody spit on the ground, "I let him run away after all..."
At this moment, there was a burst of footsteps not far behind me. I turned around and saw that it was my other self and Xiong Ming chasing after me. However, before they could run a few steps, they were entangled by those dark green vines. .
I frowned slightly, and an extremely complicated emotion came over me. I wanted to go over and help but didn't know how.
Suddenly, something clicked under my feet. I looked down and found that it was a gray-white "bone flute."
My heart moved and I thought to myself: "That guy ran too fast just now and actually left this thing behind."
Suddenly, a bold idea came to my mind, "Maybe this is the only way to help them...no, it's to help myself!"
Thinking of this, I hurriedly picked up the bone flute on the ground, and then ran towards the way I came from.
In my impression, when the bone flute is played to a certain point, those dark green vines will shrink back, and the insect eggs originally attached to them will begin to hatch. That is the only chance for Xiong Ming and I to escape. .
On the other hand, I and Xiong Ming were not far away from me at this time. After running a few steps, I stood in a corner and saw the opportunity to blow the bone flute again.
The sound was like an iron scraping glass, filling the entire space almost instantly.
The next scene was almost the same as I expected. Not long after, those dark green vines began to tremble non-stop. Countless red-backed golden-headed beetles began to hatch. They emerged from the eggs in large numbers and headed towards the center of the stone chamber. Two people rushed over.
Almost instantly, Xiong Ming's voice of cursing his mother rang out.
I saw that my other self and Xiong Ming were in a panic, so I ran to the narrow entrance of the cave, stretched out my right hand and made a "come here" gesture at them.
The other self saw me first and shouted loudly: "Where is that guy!"
Xiong Ming then shouted: "Don't let this girl run away! I'm plotting against Grandpa Xiong behind my back, I have to tear him apart!"
When I heard my other self and Xiong Ming scolding each other like this, I couldn't help but cry out in my heart: "Grandma! It's really thankless for me to do this. I obviously intended to do good things, but in the end I got scolded! Do you think this is nonsense?" …”
However, I didn’t pay too much attention to it, after all, I was “scolding myself”.
So, after making a few gestures to his other self and Xiong Ming, he turned around and ran back the way he came.
