Death Spiral [Infinite Flow]

Xu Rendong woke up in the elevator.

The joints all over his body still had severe pain from being broken. Xu Rendong's muscles were stiff and he didn't even dare to move. He hadn't woken up from the horror of being torn apart.

"Brother Liandong?" Lian Qiao took his hands and rubbed them lightly, "Why are your hands so cold all of a sudden?"

Xu Rendong raised his eyes suddenly in surprise.Lian Qiao's body temperature came from the palm of his hand, which finally made him gradually recover.He collected himself, suppressed the ups and downs of his emotions, and said in a voice as calm as possible: "...it's okay."

Lian Qiao cupped his hands, took a deep breath, and rubbed them gently to warm his hands.Xu Rendong's arms and elbows were numb, he drew back his hands unnaturally, and clenched his fists a few times to get better.Seeing his strange reaction, Lian Qiao couldn't help frowning and staring at him.

"Brother Liandong, there is something I've always wanted to ask you."

"what?"

"are you……"

Before Qiao finished speaking, Xu Rendong's expression suddenly changed.He felt nauseous for no reason, and immediately bent down and retched.

Lian Qiao was taken aback by him, and hurriedly patted his back to comfort him.Xu Rendong vomited for a while, but didn't spit out anything, but his face was pale with cold sweat, and he looked very embarrassed.

Xu Rendong regained his strength, gasped slightly and asked, "What did you just say?"

"..." Complicated emotions flashed in Lian Qiao's eyes, but soon he shook his head and sighed, "It's nothing, forget it."

Xu Rendong still wanted to ask, but heard a "ding", and the elevator door opened.

There was still endless darkness behind the door.The darkness devours everything, not only the light, as if even if you stretch out your hand, it will be cut off by the darkness.

The darkness like a bottomless pit made Xu Rendong instinctively fear.Although he was in a bright elevator at this time, he was already short of breath, his heart was beating fast, and even his back was covered with white sweat.

I do not want to go out.

don't want to leave here.

A voice kept screaming from the bottom of my heart.His body seemed to be pulled by an invisible force, making him subconsciously take a step back.

"Lonicera?" Lian Qiao immediately noticed his strangeness, reached out to support him, and asked worriedly, "What's wrong? Did you see anything?"

Xu Rendong shook his head.It was the fact that he couldn't see anything that made him even more frightened.

Honeysuckle's state is obviously not right.Lian Qiao suddenly had a strong desire to protect, he held Liandong's hand tightly, and said handsomely: "Don't be afraid. I'll go ahead, you just need to follow me."

Unexpectedly, these words stimulated Xu Rendong instead.He raised his head abruptly and pulled Lian Qiao back behind him forcefully.

"no!"

Xu Rendong overreacted, the pull was so strong that he almost threw Lian Qiao onto the elevator body.Lian Qiao staggered a few times and stood up, looking at him in a daze.

As for?Don't I just want to be handsome?

Xu Rendong closed his eyes and took a deep breath.When he opened his eyes again, he had returned to his usual calm and composed appearance.

"Don't court death." He said coldly, and walked out of the elevator alone.

Lian Qiao stayed for a while, fearing that he would lose track, so he hurried to catch up.The elevator door closed behind him, swallowing the last ray of light.Lian Qiao was plunged into absolute darkness, he was taken aback for a moment, and then bumped into a thin and straight back.

"Listen to my footsteps, follow closely." Xu Rendong's voice was low and sweet, like an invisible light in the dark, making Lian Qiao's hanging heart suddenly drop.

Lian Qiao stretched out his hand towards the darkness in front of him, wanting to hold him, but he was dodged by Lonicera.

"Don't pull me." Liandong paused, and ordered a little bluntly, "Run by yourself if you encounter danger. Don't...don't drag me down."

Lian Qiao froze for a moment, his outstretched hand froze in the darkness.

Xu Rendong didn't explain, nor did he give him time to relax.The sound of footsteps sounded again, Xu Rendong stepped on the dead branches and leaves, and walked forward slowly.

Lian Qiao had no choice but to keep up.

There is no doubt that Xu Rendong is disgusted and afraid of this darkness.He wanted to get out as soon as possible, even if it was a second earlier.So even though he was stumbling, he kept urging Lian Qiao to go fast.Until he tripped over a big tree root lying in the middle, Lian Qiao finally couldn't bear it anymore and asked him, "What are you so anxious about?"

Xu Rendong didn't answer, patted the dirt off his body and stood up.

Lian Qiao smelled a hot smell of blood, frowned and said, "Are you injured?"

Xu Rendong said: "I scratched the skin, it's fine."

Lian Qiao suddenly became angry, grabbed him, touched him from head to toe, and cursed viciously: "Fuck your mother! Can you bleed so much by scratching the skin? Do you think I'm an idiot? You ——" The scolding stopped abruptly, because he touched a long wound on Xu Rendong's arm.

The wound was at least one centimeter deep, stretching from the wrist to the elbow, dripping with blood.The thin shirt had been torn a long time ago, and the cloth strips were hanging on both sides, soaked in blood and mud. No wonder there was such a strong smell of blood all at once.

Lian Qiao was afraid of his pain, so he didn't dare to touch him again, but his tone was angry and pitiful: "Are you a stone! With such a big wound, do you..."

Xu Rendong was extremely paranoid: "I don't feel pain."

Lian Qiao laughed back angrily: "Okay! You are not afraid of pain, so don't call it pain for a while!"

Xu Rendong didn't know what he wanted to do, but felt his arm being pulled over by him, and then, Lian Qiao stuck his fingertips into his wound.

"Oh!" Xu Rendong cried out subconsciously, curling up his whole body.

"Stand still! Don't move!" Lian Qiao sneered, "Isn't it painless?"

Having said that, the movements of his hands were lighter.Xu Rendong felt his fingers moving slowly in the wound, and when they touched leaves and stones, he picked out the foreign matter, and then continued to stir inside, making a slippery and sticky sound.

The wound was forcefully stretched a bit, which was tantamount to a second injury to Xu Rendong.

He gritted his teeth and endured it.He quickly realized that Lian Qiao was cleaning his wounds.

In fact, Xu Rendong knew in his heart that he was seriously injured by this fall.When he lost his balance, he instinctively supported the ground with his hands, but unexpectedly a dead branch stuck on the ground.The dead branch was sharp and rough, vividly cutting a big hole in his arm.When he pulled the dead branch out of the wound, he felt a sharp pain.But it was only for a while.

Compared with tearing off a joint alive, what is a mere twig stuck in an arm?The only thing Xu Rendong was lucky about was that the dead branch was inserted into his arm instead of his chest, otherwise...

Otherwise, he can only continue walking with dead branches.

Although Lian Qiao didn't know what Xu Rendong was thinking, but Xu Rendong couldn't figure out what Lian Qiao was thinking.So when Lian Qiao stuffed the blood-stained dead branch into his hand, Xu Rendong was stunned.

"What?"

Lian Qiao said, "Be a guide stick for the blind."

Xu Rendong was taken aback, and touched the dead branch up and down, only to find that the dead branch was connected to a section of the trunk, which was a branch near the root of the tree, no wonder it was so hard.

But why is this tree trunk so strange?

"Did someone split this tree?" Xu Rendong stroked the abrupt section on the other side of the trunk, wondering if someone passed by here not long ago.

Lian Qiao said, "It's not like splitting, it seems to be split from the middle."

Xu Rendong touched it carefully again, and felt that what Lian Qiao said made a lot of sense.The trunk has a rough cross-section and is disconnected from the big tree along the grain of the growth.But judging from the thickness, at least three people hugged this big tree, and for some reason it split from the middle.

Got struck by lightning?

Is there still thunder in this ghost place?

Xu Rendong didn't intend to waste time on such trivial details, so he stood up leaning on the tree trunk and said, "Go on."

Lian Qiao walked to the front side of him and said, "Let me open the way."

Xu Rendong said: "No need."

Even Qiao knew Xu Rendong's stubbornness very well, so he didn't insist, he just sighed in a low voice: "When will you be able to rely on me..."

Xu Rendong didn't hear clearly, and asked into the darkness: "What?"

Lian Qiao said: "You...forget it. It's nothing."

The two hit the road again.

With a guide stick, opening a path becomes much easier.This thing can also be used as a weapon if necessary.In fact, Xu Rendong also thought so in the last reincarnation, but he reached out and caught the deadly vine, and was directly divided into five horses, which was horrific.If he hadn't happened to pick up this dead branch this time, he would not have dared to touch the surrounding plants.

Xu Rendong remembered that the last time they walked not far away, there was a rustling sound behind them.Thinking about it now, the vines were probably chasing after him.Therefore, along the way, Xu Rendong took careful precautions, always paying attention to the movement around him.But this time there was no rustle.

Instead, there was a scream from far, far away.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah--"

Lonicera Lianqiao was startled at the same time.Do you want to save people?As soon as this idea came up, the distance returned to silence.No matter how hard I listened, there was no sound.

Lian Qiao said: "I'm afraid it's cold."

Xu Rendong: "Yes. Let's change direction and bypass that side."

Lian Qiao: "Okay."

Although the killing in the distance had long since ended, the turmoil in the hearts of the two could not be calmed down for a long time.The dungeon this time is very special. It is the dark forest when they come in. They have not encountered a single player so far, and they even have suspicions that there may be no one else in this dungeon.

However, the scream just now proves beyond doubt that there are other players in this copy.

So, are these people completely dispersed, or have they already...

"Fortunately, there are two of us..." Lian Qiao suddenly quickened his pace, getting closer to Lonicera, "If I also came in alone, I would probably be scared to death by now."

Xu Rendong was silent for a moment, and said: "If I were alone, I probably wouldn't even get out the door, so I would just spend the rest of my life in the elevator."

For some reason, the scene of Xu Rendong squatting in the elevator eating hot pot alone appeared in Lian Qiao's mind, and he couldn't help laughing.

Xu Rendong asked in surprise, "What are you laughing at?"

Lian Qiao's hand passed through the darkness, pinching his face accurately: "No. I won't leave you alone."

Xu Rendong: "...um."

Lian Qiao: "Let's have a hot pot after we go out."

Xu Rendong: "...Huh???" This topic jumps too fast!

Lian Qiao deliberately made him happy, which made Xu Rendong feel more relaxed.However, screams and screams could be heard from a distance from time to time, and the atmosphere quickly became tense again.

The two stopped from time to time, listened for a while, thought there was nothing to do, and continued on the road.

The screams of others are miserable, but it also shows that the danger is still far away, and they can feel a little relieved.It's just not suitable for joking anymore.

After walking for another ten minutes, Lian Qiao suddenly said, "Brother Liandong, don't you think this forest is strange?"

Xu Rendong recalled what he said in the last reincarnation, and plagiarized: "It's too quiet, no insects or birds?"

"Well, it's not just this...you give me your hand."

Xu Rendong complied.

Lian Qiao grabbed his hand and kissed him.Xu Rendong felt his palms itch, Lian Qiao quickly licked his palms with the tip of his tongue, and the tingling sensation climbed up his back instantly.

"...Lian Qiao!" Xu Rendong was ashamed and annoyed, subconsciously retracted his hands, "You...what are you doing!"

Lian Qiao said solemnly: "Spread your hands and put them up."

Xu Rendong was puzzled, but still obeyed.As soon as he raised his palm, he immediately understood Lian Qiao's intention.

is the wind.

This forest is deep and oppressive. I don't know if it's because of the loss of vision. During this journey, Xu Rendong always felt that the air was stagnant and airtight.At this moment, with a little saliva on the palm of his hand, and a chill, he finally realized: it turns out that there is wind here.

But what does that mean?
