Chapter 4: The Woman Seeking Help
Nie Mo stood there and only thought for a while, anyway, stay here sooner or later is also dead, no matter what is behind this, bet a little. Thinking of this, he calmed down a mood, gripped the knife in his hand, first stretched a foot into the step, and kicked the leg, found nothing strange, and then walked in. Nie Mo only felt that he could not see anything in front of him, as if there was a fog enveloping him, even so he did not stop walking, not long he seemed to hear the sound of water, water, his heart rejoiced, because he knew that if there is water, then there may be a way out, and regardless of the injuries to accelerate the pace, the fog was more and more less, he could see a river, the sound of running water is deafening. When Nie end saw the big river in front of him, the heart of the joy was halved, because it looks like a huge hole, "Damn" Nie end cursed, "how to walk around or hole" but carefully think about the water, then may find the exit, he approached! A look, the river is actually hot, but the strange thing is that he did not feel here than just the cave to be hot, standing there, has been looking at the flow of the river, suddenly, he found that the river seems to have suddenly disappeared in general, the front of a dark, the heart is very surprised. He trotted along the river past, in a boulder to look down, the whole body a burst of cold, it turned out that the river to this place, suddenly fell vertically into a huge deep pool, seems to be very deep, the following black nothing can be seen, can not say the eerie horror. He looked at a glance on the do not want to look at, the brain emerges in that dark deep pool may have a large water monster in the watch him. Thinking of this he could not help but shiver, how to do, it seems to be another dead end. Nie Mo went upstream again, hoping to find some hope there. Looking at the water source he fell into despair, the water is from a large hole in the wall of a high cave outflow, the current is relatively large, even if he climbed up, but also do not want to enter the hole. So simply sat down, and then took out the bag still left two steamed buns, and looked at the river not far away, I do not know this water can not drink, how high the temperature, care so much to do what, anyway, sooner or later may die here, afraid of what, so he walked over, looking for a place of low terrain, with his hand to touch the river water, but not hot, warm, than the temperature of the hot springs is still a little lower, he played a pot of water. He hit a pot of water and drank half of it in one gulp, and ate the steamed buns. At this time, Nie Mo was a little sentimental up, he smiled bitterly, thinking, a person knows he is dying, the idea is more. "Grandpa, you must take good care of yourself in the future" Nie Mo was a bit sentimental, if he wasn't in this situation right now, he would never look like this, he has always been a very strong-willed person. He turned his head to look at the place he had just walked into and contemplated, these caves he had walked through had left him puzzled and never understood everything that had happened here. Nie Mo was about to turn his head when he seemed to see something, he stood up fiercely, and looked at it was an eye, very big and round, green and eerily flashing with raw cold light, it was approaching him from that mist, a huge body appeared a dozen meters away from him, it was a huge lizard that only had one eye, that was bigger than at least two tigers, it was fiery red all over and kept spitting out it's often tongue. "Shit, what the hell kind of place produces these strange beasts." Nie Mo hadn't finished his sentence, the one-eyed lizard quickly ran towards him, it came from the mist, it was really strange, he hadn't seen it there before, he couldn't afford to think about it, he copied up his short sword and quickly ran in the other direction. Although he might be a dead man sooner or later, he didn't want to become this monster's meal in the belly. He did not expect this one-eyed giant lizard, although large in size, speed is also very fast, soon turned around to catch up with him, a turn tail violently to him heavily flung, Nie Mojie jumped violently to avoid the past, rolled forward, rolled out of a number of meters, he suddenly found that his body can not feel the pain, what is going on. Niemou has not come back to God, that one-eyed lizard to roar ran over, like it just that blow did not succeed, the heart is very upset, very angry, open mouth on a bite to Niemou, he turned over, jumped away, I did not expect that the giant lizard, although the body of the long, but very flexible. Can mouth and tail and use, mouth did not bite, tail at the same time flung out, he avoided not in time, stifled a grunt was knocked out several meters away, the body came a burst of fiery pain but quickly disappeared. Nie Mo did not think too much, stood up, felt some slight tremors on the ground, the one-eyed giant lizard ran over again. He quickly ran towards the direction where the water flowed, he wanted to lure the iguana there, several times the iguana's big mouth was less than a meter away from him. Nie Mu accelerated his speed, quickly ran to the river 'end', jumped onto the fast boulder, he was trying to let the one-eyed lizard fall into the deep pool below, although such an idea is very dangerous but he had no choice. He inserted the knife into the waistband of his pants, and waited for the last fight, the one-eyed iguana looked at the creature in front of him standing on the boulder, not even move, like a challenge to its authority, angrily shaking the huge body towards Niemou, Niemou's heart kept trembling, can it be successful, he asked himself. The one-eyed lizard opened its mouth and rushed towards Niemou, when it was less than a meter away from himself, Niemou quickly jumped in another direction, the lizard pounced on the air, could not collect the body to see half of the body of the lizard over the boulder to fall into the deep pool, but the one-eyed lizard's long tail at the same time flung and pulled it, Niemou felt his body hanging in the air, and screamed "no good", but it was too late for him to fall into the dark deep pool in a straight line with that giant lizard. He and the lizard fell straight down into the deep black pool. NieMo only felt that the more he fell down, the heavier the heat, can not see anything, do not know how long he fell down, he felt that this time is really dead, his brain just flashed inside the picture of his grandfather, and more and more fuzzy. When he felt the body heavy into the water when his mind suddenly clear for a moment, his head out of the water, and kept gasping for air, just in the heart of the surprise when he also heard not far away from the sound of a loud noise, he knew that it should be the giant lizard, he quickly dive into the water. Unexpectedly, this water is not dark, there is light, although the water is a little warm, but he can still bear, think of the light that means there must be a place leading to the outside, soon he found the source of light, survival instincts and let him struggle to swim forward. Just swim not long, a fiery red object swam toward him, bad, Nie Mo screamed bitter is that one-eyed giant lizard, in this water he will not be even faster to die. Just then he heard a very scary cry, what is it, his heart jumped again. Swim fast, with all the strength he could muster. Then he felt a huge vibration in this water, he didn't dare to look back, he only knew to swim forward desperately. For a while, Nie end can not help but curious, turned his head back to look at a glance, just look at this glance, he almost did not hold his breath, drank several mouths of water, wide-eyed disbelief, the original is not very far away from him, there are two monsters fighting, can not see only see a red is definitely the giant lizard, there is a huge black shadow like a cloud of things do not know what, a mournful cry added to his desire to survive! Desire. Dawn is in front, when his head out of the water, the feeling of rebirth, simply indescribable. Here from the shore is still nearly a hundred meters, although he was a bit physically exhausted, but still clenched his teeth and swam over. Climbed to the shore, Nie Mo one fell on a rock, will not want to move a bit, closed his eyes to enjoy this long-lost sunshine, after a long time, he opened his eyes and sat up, hard to exhale a breath, he smiled, the idea of going home all of a sudden surged up, thinking that they are not wanting me to go up to the mountain, I stayed a few days in the mountains, to see go back to what they still have something to say. He looked at the surrounding environment, found that this place is full of ancient trees, green grass, this time the sun hangs in the sky, it should be noon, and he just escaped in front of the water pool is so calm, think of the previous danger he still palpitating, then he suddenly found that the water is actually red, not right ah, just now he swam up although he didn't pay attention to look at it, but can be sure that it is not this color. Soon Nie Mo thought of the two monsters fighting in the water, En, it might be the blood of whoever they are, which dyed the water like this, he thought that the one-eyed giant lizard should not be a match for that huge black monster, it's mostly its blood. He originally wanted to take a sip of water, but now it's a bit hard to drink. Forget it, it's not hard to find water in this forest. Nie Mo left that water pool, the mood is very good to walk towards the forest, only to feel refreshed, he just thought of his injuries, a look at the body, actually what injuries are not, the skin is smooth, strange things, he muttered, how the body's injuries are good, and then thought of the previous fight with the giant lizard has not felt like he is like a seriously injured person, what is going on, back to think of the previous in the end what he had done when he thought of the drinking of the The water, could it be that the water has a strange medicinal effect. If so is not unusual, that cave can breed those monsters to, that water must not be simple. Walked for a while before he realized that the body of the short knife is gone, know should be dropped in the water. Think about it is really a pity, so good knife, now he really has nothing, except a tattered clothes and pants. Nie Mo looked at the dense forest, also do not know what this is the location of the Nine Snakes Mountain, he walked for almost an hour. In addition to trees and plants, nothing else can be seen, and now very hungry to find something to eat. In the Nie end some despondency, not far from the woods seems to have what sound, he did not hesitate to slowly to the woods go, from the woods more and more close to the time, he vaguely heard the sound of something, not animal, as if it is a person and is a woman's voice, this deep mountain how there will be someone it, although he could not figure out what is going on, but still walked over, just crossed into the dense weeds, Nie end only feel A foot suddenly stepped in the air, if he did not pull the hand of a tree vine, it would have fallen down. He took two steps backward, and took a closer look at a hole that was covered by lush foliage, and he couldn't really tell without paying attention that the woman's voice was coming from below. Nie Mao shouted inside "Hey, is anyone there?" "Yes, who's up there, can you save me up there?" An urgent voice came from the cave. Nie Mo did not think too much, no matter who the other party is, that is, encountered that first save people, but now he has no knife, this hole is covered by leaves, can not see what is the situation below so shouted again "You do not panic, I want to find a way to save you, you estimate how deep this hole." Quiet for a while, the woman's voice only came "should be six or seven meters, I can not be sure, the light is very dark." Nie Mo thought for a while, looked around, began to look for some longer vines, after almost an hour, he was able to find enough to join up with seven or eight meters long vines, if there is a knife, he would have been done, he pulled hard, he felt that it should be no problem. Ready after he looked around, from here the nearest thicker tree is also a few meters away, if the end of the rattan chained to the tree, the length of the rattan is not enough, it seems to rely on him to pull the woman up, a woman should not be heavy. So he held one end of the tree vine and threw the other end down, calling out, "See the tree vine? I'll pull you up." "Okay, see it." Only then did he hear the woman's voice, Nie Mu only felt, that the tree vine tightened, he almost didn't stand still, and after finding his center of gravity, he pulled up the tree vine with force.
