bunny in another soap bubble

Tu Zi's heart is now cooler than the river water just now.

The Aegis Stone is named after the shield of ancient mythology. Its ability to block mental signals is first-class. It can even block the resonance of the sentinel that once claimed that there is no material or environment that can be affected by it. It is called single stone. In a city with a high proportion of sentinels, if Aegis Stone Mountain is found near the community, even the house price will drop.

The examination hall of the Shaoxiang Academy, the competition venue of the League of Nations, etc. were all made of special materials mixed with Aegis Stone. Tu Zi was very aware of its blocking ability, and gave up using his wizard ability to call for help in despair.

——I can only rely on shouting.

At the bottom of the pit, Tu Zi couldn't hear the movement above at all, but the sound floated upwards. If you try it, you might be able to hear it from above.

"Blue—bird—!" Walking to the riverside and closer to the rock wall, Tu Zi raised his chin and tried his best to eat carrots, "We—we—are—under—face—!"

……

"No—dead—it!"

……

"Save-life-ah-!"

……

"Listen-see-got-throw-piece-east-west-down-come-chat-!"

...no response.

"Cough cough cough..." My throat hurts.

Tu Zi gave up calling for help, and decided to wait for Lang Ya to wake up first, he, a weak guide, is not capable of running all over the mountain with a tall sentinel on his back.

With his head down, Tu Zi walked back dejectedly.

"—Hi, kid."

Sudden dull pain in the back of the neck, Tu Zi fell forward on the rocky beach.Before he lost consciousness, he only felt a familiar malice spreading and surrounding him.

...Must be the Aegis Stone weakening the telepathy...

This was Tu Zi's last thought before closing his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, the only thing that Tu Zi could move freely was his eyes.

His hands were tied behind his back, his feet were tightly bound together at the ankles, and even his mouth was taped. Tu Zi was already lying on his side in this posture, or "laid on his side" on the bump Uneven rocky ground.

Fortunately, the terrain is uneven, and Tu Zi's head is tilted upwards, so the neck is not so hard.

Turning his eyes, Tu Zi glanced at a large group of parachute-like objects beside him from the corner of his eyes.The object was entangled with the rope of the parachute itself, like sausages tied round and round, barely recognizable as a human shape.

Tu Zi tried to use mental induction to detect the state of the humanoid object, especially wanting to confirm whether it was Lang Ya, but found that the induction was completely ineffective.In horror, he began to notice the surrounding environment.

In the dark cave, a faint fire flickered.No matter who caught them, it probably took them to a cave in a certain area densely populated with Aegis stones, which caused their guiding ability to be suppressed to the point where they couldn't even use their senses to the people next to them.

"woke up?"

A male voice sounded, and Tu Zi was forced to look up by the back of his head.At a glance, Tu Zi's eyes widened - the person in front of him turned out to be the team member who threw a grenade in the air and killed Ah Lu and the others!

It turned out that when No. [-] was shot by Lang Ya and broke the parachute rope, and was dragged by a tree vine and smashed to the ground, he immediately unfastened his seat belt and jumped out of the plane to save his life.

He pulled a part of the secondary parachute that was detached from the aircraft base, and couldn't control his direction.Fortunately or unfortunately, he floated to the Tiankeng all at once, and he was not smashed to pieces only by the branches of the parachute wrapped around the wall of the pit to hang him.The signal at the bottom of the pit was not good, and he couldn't contact other team members, so he could only find his way around.Just when he found this windy cave—that is, there should be an exit—and turned around to pack up his belongings and leave, he heard Tu Zi calling for help, and then caught the two of them.

It was impossible for him to carry two people away at the same time, so he only carried the target Tu Zi and dragged Lang Ya with a parachute.

Tu Zi suddenly understood the situation.

Dragging on this kind of rocks, I don't know that Lang Ya is not injured...

"Hey," noticing that Tu Zi was thinking about something else, No. [-] slapped him on the face, "Look at me. The order from above is to capture you alive, so I won't let you die for the time being. But your little friend Well, there's no need. You'd better be good, or you'll piss me off, and I'll wring his head off. Do you understand?"

Cautiously, Tu Zi nodded slightly.

"it is good."

No. [-] put Tu Zi down, walked to Lang Ya who was wrapped into sausages, and unwrapped part of the "package", revealing his face and an arm.He grabbed one of Lang Ya's fingers and twisted it hard!

"what--!"

"Mmmmmmm!" Are you perverted? !

Tu Zi screamed excitedly, but his mouth was sealed, and he only made some whining noises.

"Look, he's still alive." No. [-] dropped Lang Ya's arm, "Be careful not to let him become dead." After speaking, he knocked Lang Ya unconscious again after waking up from the pain.

Tu Zi nodded like crazy.

"Very good." Number [-] said again, picked up the water cup on the ground and poured the remaining water down his throat, he put the cup back on the kettle, kicked out the fire, picked up the hostages and set off.

The bottom of the tiankeng is a river that was originally an underground river. After the karst collapsed, the mountains covering it disappeared, exposing part of the river, while the upper and lower tributaries of the river still retain the characteristics of an underground river.

The cave where Tu Zi and the others are located is also one of the caves eroded by underground river water. Along the water flow, there are nine twists and eighteen bends inside the cave, and there are countless branch roads.No. [-] is basically chasing the wind, whichever road has smooth air circulation, and Xiumei Mountain is not big, so there is still a great hope of walking to another part of the underground river that is exposed to the ground before starving to death.

Just halfway there, the three of them heard some unnatural voices.

The two clicks were very slight, but even non-sentinels could hear them clearly through the echo of the cave wall.

Noticing that it was definitely not the sound of water flowing, Number Eight immediately stopped on guard.

Tu Zi, who was being carried by him like rice on his shoulders, heard these two sounds, and his heart beat faster.

It was an artificial sound...it sounded like the clasp of a mirror case or something metal when it was closed.

—pocket watch.

Tu Zi remembered that Qin Ran had a silver pocket watch with him, he said they were a pair, so Yan Wuxiang should have one too.Then, maybe, Qin Ran and the others have already joined the main force and are entering the underground channel according to Blue Bird's previous plan!And because Yan Wuxiang was navigating ahead, he walked into the area that would echo back to the side of the cave, so he heard the sound of closing his pocket watch here!

This speculation made Tu Zi extremely excited.

Sure enough, in the next second, multiple footsteps entered the reverberation area - he guessed right!

Tu Zi immediately tried again, and the mental signal was still strongly suppressed, but he knew that the sentinel's five senses would not.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuufu each Objects—jugs, knives, metal buttons...anything.

The echoes in the cave are relative. Since they can hear Yan Wu's voice from that side, Yan Wu can also hear their voice from that side. With the superhuman sense of hearing of the sentry, they should be able to follow the sound. Find your way here.

"You, brat!" No. [-] violently threw Tu Zi off his body and onto the rocks, then kicked the face-down hostage.

Tu Zi curled up in pain, watching Number Eight casually grabbing Lang Ya, and twisting his hand again.

"--what!"

It was a repeat of the incident. After No. [-] abused Lang Ya, he knocked him out again.Only this time, after he knocked Lang Ya unconscious, he gave Tu Zi an extra kick.

"Well,……"

"Did you see it? Brat, let me say it for the last time. Next time you mess around, I'll kill him."

Picking up Tu Zi, No. [-] didn't say any more, his actions have clearly proved how serious he is.He was also worried about whether those extra footsteps would catch up with the action here, so he didn't delay much this time, and ran away with the people.

Tu Zi was stunned, and he didn't dare to take any further actions for a while, so he had to pray that Yan Wuxiang had heard the voices from here, and didn't think they were members of the search team.

... Tu Zi's prayers were in vain.

Yan Wuxiang may or may not have chased after the voice, but in short, he did not have time to catch up.

Carrying two hostages, No. [-] first found the exit of the underground cave - a small stepped waterfall and plunge pool, far easier to climb than the tiankeng, but still steep.

Number Eight looked at the exit, sighed, and put Tu Zi off his shoulders.

Tu Zi tensed up—what did he want to do?

No. [-] shrugged: "I can't climb up with two people on my back." Saying that, he drew a small knife from his boot.

Tu Zi understood.

——He wants to kill Lang Ya here.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu who wants to stop number eight from doing it.

Lang Ya, who was dragged all the way just now, was put down casually when No. [-] noticed the exit light, and now he is only lying a few steps away, facing the imminent murder, every movement of No. [-] seems to be slowed down in Tu Zi's eyes. Let go, sending Lang Ya towards death step by step.

Tu Zi struggled and struggled again.

Finally, he stepped on a point of leverage between the jagged wet stones.

"Well--!"

Exhausting all his strength, Tu Zi jumped forward like a dying shrimp!

No. [-] was hit from behind by Tu Zi, carrying the weight of two people forward and fell to the ground.

"Fuck your mother..." No. [-] propped up his upper body, trying to lift off the entire boy on his back. Tu Zi was not as strong as a mature soldier, but a sharp stone happened to appear in front of his eyes.

He twisted his shoulders, aimed at the back of No. [-]'s head and slammed it sideways!

"Ah..." No. [-]'s face door slammed into the stone, and he was so injured that even the sound of screaming in pain was very weak, "Fuck you—" He clenched his knife hand and stabbed himself in the back. Azusa hit again harder.

"evil……"

On the second impact, No. [-] vomited a pool of blood.

Fear begins to creep in.

……Don't……

Leaving the cave surrounded by Aegis stones, the ability to guide, which had been suppressed, naturally began to recover.

...I don't want to die...

No. [-]'s strong emotional ripples are like an entity around Tu Zi, whose abilities have temporarily rebounded and skyrocketed.

...don't die here...

Thick fear and unwillingness overwhelmed Tu Zi.

...who will come...

He couldn't help but tremble all over because of another person's emotion.

……help me……

The fear of others becomes his fear, and consciousness is gradually hijacked by induction.

……Who can help me……

……help me……

……save……

However, before falling into the critical point of the storm of consciousness, Tu Zi saw that No. [-]'s hand touched the walkie-talkie.

"No no no no no!!!"

Pressing on No. [-]'s head, Tu Zi slammed it down frantically, over and over again, until the head no longer lifted up.

In the end, No. [-]'s mental reaction was silent, and the emotional ripples completely disappeared.

Eight is dead.

Tu Zi just avoided the storm of consciousness caused by external emotional induction just before the critical point.

But he couldn't escape the frenzy caused by his inner emotions.

His whole body was exhausted, and Tu Zi rolled down from No. [-]'s back.He was breathing hard, but he couldn't feel the oxygen coming in at all; the tears pouring out of his eyes seemed to drown him, and he couldn't control it at all; he was confused and couldn't remember where he was.His eyes were blurred, and he couldn't move his mouth, but he seemed to hear himself talking.

--why?

——Why am I here?

--What did i do wrong?

--why?

——I want to go home...I want to go home...

"……Hey."

A big warm hand caressed Tu Zi's face, and gently tore off the tape on his mouth.

It's prodigal.

He was lying within a foot of Tu Zi, and had just opened his eyes.

"what happened?"

Holding the back of Tu Zi's head, he slowly pulled the person into his arms, and tried his best to look around with his swollen eyelids.

"It's okay..." After a long time, Tu Zi murmured.

"Ok?"

"It's okay, he's dead, I..." Tu Zi choked, "I killed him..."

Leaning on Lang Ya's shoulders, Tu Zi broke down and wailed, the backlog of negative emotions finally burst and poured out.
