Ask Sword

Sleeping in the cold and windy valley was not easy. Even with a tent to cover it, the wind became stronger and stronger in the middle of the night, and flying sand and stones hit the surface of the tent, making rattling noises.

Indistinctly, some abnormal noises could be heard. I don't know if it's the wind sweeping the canyon, or the howling of demons,

Li Ang and Lu Yunan took turns to watch the night, finally survived the 'night', and removed the tent after the strong wind ended.

Li Ang's eyes still haven't improved, and Lu Yunan's leg injury is still serious.

It is not clear whether the Academy will send people to rescue, nor whether the Academy's rescue will be effective, they can only imagine in the most pessimistic direction.

After some discussion, the two reached a consensus.

The dry food that Lu Yunan brought was enough for about three days, and if he saved some, he could last for four days. They have to find a way to get out within four days, or enough food and water for the two of them to last longer.

Li Ang carried Lu Yunan on his back, and made a strap out of parachute cloth to help fix Lu Yunan's injured leg and minimize leg shaking during the march.

And Lu Yunan showed Li Ang the way and reported the terrain ahead.

The feeling of losing eyesight was terrible. Li Ang fell down several times while leaning on the three-edged gun, and then he got used to it and walked faster.

Stopping and stopping, leaving notches on the wall (for possible reinforcements), lasted for seven or eight hours, and the scene ahead was still hopelessly monotonous.

After walking for several hours, I finally saw a stream ahead. The water source of the stream comes from the cracks in the rocks of the mountain wall.

The two dug a lot of dry lichens and moss from the rock wall, lit them with flint and talisman paper to help them burn, and raised a small bonfire.

Then Li Ang took out the psychic paper, folded it into a plate shape, poured it into the stream, and put it on the fire to heat (the psychic paper is made of special material and will not burn).

After the water cooled down, Lu Yunan took the initiative to take a sip, and let Li Ang drink it after confirming that it was all right. The latter is a doctor. If the stream water is contaminated with some ingredients in the Liyuan mist and makes people sick, at least it can make Li Ang drink it. Find a way to give first aid.

After drinking the water, the two listened to the wind and noise, rested at the bottom of the valley overnight, and continued to move forward the next day.

The next day's journey was equally boring, with the same rift and the same scenery.

The atmosphere became much more depressed, Li Ang and Lu Yunan stopped chatting to consume energy, and set up a tent for the night like last night.

In the early morning of the next day, Lu Yunan woke up from her sleep and heard clanging noises coming from outside the tent.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes and opened the tent, and saw Li Ang standing in front of the cliff, smashing the rock wall with a three-edged gun.

What are you doing?

Cutting the wall.

Li Ang spoke concisely, holding the three-edged gun and slamming on the rock wall until his arm was hit by a stone from the missile, then he put down the barrel of the gun and touched the rock wall with his hand.

There is only an egg-sized depression in the cliff.

Hard enough.

He turned around and said: There is not enough dry food, if we stay at the bottom of the valley, we will have no food in two days, and we will starve to death in a short time.

The only way to survive is to climb up.

up

Lu Yunan followed Li Ang's gestures and looked up. There was only thick fog and gloomy gray cliffs in the sky above.

She took a deep breath, Is it possible?

Let me try.

Li Ang put the three-edged gun back into his pocket, put his palm on the cliff, and hooked his fingertips into the gap between the rocks.

From memory, put your toes into that egg-sized indentation and slowly shift your weight.

He slowly climbed up the cliff and climbed up, but before he could climb a few meters, he came across an unstable rock wall.

With a bang, the rock wall peeled off, he let go of his hands, and fell heavily to the ground.

Lu Yunan leaned on the wall and came to Li Ang's side, pulling him up.

Li Ang stood up, this height did not hurt his back, he just remained silent, and punched the cliff like venting his anger.

Blind eyesight, sealed sea of ​​qi, uncertain fate of life and death. The sense of powerlessness, boredom, anxiety, fear, and anger accumulated over the past few days all burst out at this moment.

Li Ang punched the cliff until the skin of his fingers was broken and blood flowed out. Lu Yunan on the side gently held his arm.

Let me help you.

Lu Yunan said softly, Let's climb out together.

Li Ang looked up at the other party, with blurred vision, he could only distinguish the long white hair of the other party.

On land before, the lightning strike spell I used to smash Ghost Spade's head was actually beyond the scope of the Cloud Patrol Realm. It was almost 70% as powerful as the Thunder Cloud Spell at the Candle Sky Realm.

Lu Yunan said: I have abilities, namely observation, calculation, and prediction.

See the cloud weather and predict the weather in the next few days.

See the changes in the aura and predict the effects of spells.

Sometimes this ability is close to foresight. Under uncontrollable circumstances, you can suddenly see changes in the next few hours or even days.

I saw in the northern border that you might die in the hands of the ghost spade in the future, so I asked Jia Luo to support you in advance through the close worm.

Li Ang was slightly speechless when he heard the words, it turned out to be the ability of prophecy.

It's a pity that there is no lottery or stock market in this world.

Lu Yunan supported Li Ang's shoulders and stepped back half a step, looked up at the steep cliff, and pointed to several rocks, These places can't support the weight of a person, they will peel off and fall off.

These places are fine. try?

good.

Li Ang carried Lu Yunan on his back and tried to climb again.

Lu Yunan kept reporting the direction and distance of the reliable rock, and Li Ang carefully groped the rock wall, grasping the protruding stones that could be climbed.

The two cooperated tacitly, and soon climbed to a height of about seven or eight floors above the ground, touching the floating dense fog.

They waited quietly in the dense fog for a period of time, and they continued to climb for a certain distance without any respiratory poisoning reaction or encounter with demons.

After confirming that this method is feasible, they went back the same way and started to pack their things.

In order to pack lightly, they discarded all unnecessary things such as charm plates and close-fitting armor, and reduced the weight as much as possible.

Glow Crossbow

Li Ang hesitated, weighed the rather heavy crossbow, thinking about whether to put it on the pile of items that needed to be discarded.

Keep it.

Lu Yunan said: It is very likely that you will encounter monsters inhabiting the rift on the way up, even if the special ability of the crossbow itself cannot be used,

Add a bowstring to it, and it can still fire.

Right.

Li Ang removed a black silk umbrella rope and tied it to both sides of the glowing crossbow arm. He also took a three-edged spear and dismantled the amulet into pieces. He removed a few steel nails from the wreckage and used them as crude crossbow arrows.

He tied the glow crossbow to his leg, carried Lu Yunan on his back, and began to climb Liyuan.
