Chapter 7: Escape from the Basement
I snapped the hemp rope still retained on my wrist, and Yan Lu had already fainted. This time, it was my turn to protect him, and a strong obsession led me to think of a plan whose feasibility was uncertain.
Yan Lu could not open the door and kept cursing at him
Is everything alright
Dozens have been eliminated, yet more keep coming. They seem to pour in continuously through the cracks, and the few that are left cannot withstand the multitude, resulting in several areas being poisoned: on the face, arms, feet, legs, and back
Why, why treat us this way
I am experiencing excruciating pain in my lower body, as if it is being gnawed and drained of life.
My tightly shut eyes suddenly opened, and I could not see where we were, surrounded by gray and earthy dust and smoke! That deafening sound was truly overwhelming; my eardrum is still in excruciating pain.
I cried out, "Please, please spare us!"
The sky was getting dark, and the dusk painted the sky in layers. I had been lost in thought for such a long time that when I took out my phone, I discovered there was no signal here. The thought of making a call completely vanished, and in a huff, I jumped down, preparing to return to Yanlu's side.
After a few minutes, I stood up, and the dust had already settled
I was almost swept away by the tremendous impact; fortunately, I was holding onto Yanlu, and the combined weight of the two of us prevented us from being lifted off the ground, resulting in a roll of several meters.
"When we go out! When we go out! You bastard, why did you impersonate our companion and lock us in a place like this!" I shouted anxiously as Yanlu rushed over to bang on the door.
I leaned the book against the farthest corner from the door, rubbed the dynamite against the wall a few times, and the fuse quickly ignited, making a crackling sound. I swiftly threw the dynamite through the crack, trying to direct the impact as far away from Yanlu as possible, and then quickly ran back to hold him. I turned my back to the wooden door, hoping this would protect Yanlu from the blast.
Finally, with great trepidation, I arrived at the center and turned on the faucet
The warm and gentle tongue licked my thigh, causing my sensitive body to shudder slightly. Soon, the sharp pain diminished, and he expelled a large amount of black blood. I felt averse to looking directly at it; that disgusting substance was discovered too early.
Seeing Yan Lu in pain, I decided to give it my all
After several minutes, all the venom was finally extracted. ... He helped me put on my pants, and now everything is fine, my innocence is restored ...
His footsteps grew closer, almost touching the door. Two items were thrown in through a crack, and I caught them
I supported Yanlu, holding the empty potion bottle, and approached those insects. Indeed, they all retreated in unison. Soon, about thirty of them had backed away to the corner of the wall, not daring to come closer
Oh, oh
It's doomed
After unfastening, I took off my pants and the thin layer of black tights. I screamed!
Yan Lu ran over, his face bruised and battered. It looked very much like he had been beaten, but I noticed that the area on his neck where he was first bitten had already turned black.
Originally, this is the basement of the abandoned physics laboratory. The school has constructed half of a new campus, featuring a new physics laboratory, a new girls' dormitory, a new cafeteria, a new fountain, and a new playground. The old physics laboratory, the old girls' dormitory, the abandoned dirty cafeteria, and the accumulated garbage pit have all been neglected, not to mention the playground overgrown with weeds
Disguising himself as Liu Kede, the scoundrel continued nonchalantly: "This gunpowder can blow up the basement, and there is only one vial of the antidote."
The sticky substance is all over me, on his hands, completely covered.
I screamed in agony, one cry after another, and soon those insects overwhelmed him as they crawled towards me
"This is not something you can wade through; the water is too deep. I advise you not to continue exploring out of curiosity," the person said slowly.
Not a drop of water came out, and just as I was feeling dejected, the faucet suddenly turned down by me! I was startled and almost fell into the sink
The ground was slippery, and I was almost advancing by stepping on the moss. Occasionally, I would step on something that rubbed my feet, and before I knew it, I was breaking out in a cold sweat.
I silently shouted in my heart, forcing my hungry body to run vigorously to the door
Another day and night had passed, and we were utterly exhausted, lying on the ground, too hungry to move. Suddenly, he stood up and urged me to hurry up the stairs. To our astonishment, we discovered dozens of black, book-like worms slithering out from the crevices in the corners of the basement like small snakes
I shook my head and stepped back while wearing only my underwear
These pests must be here for revenge; we killed their companions yesterday
How do you feel
"Who is joking with you? I was bitten!" I said anxiously, at this point, what is he thinking!
Rumbling!
I am so hungry. Looking at my empty stomach, I helplessly gaze at the door
After a while, just as I was about to doze off again, my thigh suddenly began to itch, and I let out a startled cry. This woke up the sleeping Yan Chenlu, who crawled over to ask me what was wrong. In my anxiety, I urged him to help me untie the hemp rope quickly. After several minutes of hesitation, it remained firmly tied, and I cried out in despair. The insect continued to bite more fiercely; even though I was wearing leggings, I could still clearly feel the pain spreading.
Damn it! How could there be such a thing! Yan Lu threw aside my shorts and grabbed the black "little snake" and forcefully threw it out.
Oh, damn
He asked, "What is wrong with you?"
His serious face told me that this was no joke. I pondered for a moment and finally said: "It hurts so much, hurry up."
No! Do not come over! Ah—! I kicked my legs randomly, hoping they would stay away from me
Damn the impersonator Liu Ke, I must find out who it is
Time continues to pass, "It seems we are trapped. He has no intention of returning to deal with us."
I supported Yan Lu, limping as we walked out of the bombed basement. If we go to the infirmary like this, we will definitely raise suspicion
I rubbed my two legs together with difficulty, hoping to alleviate the pain and itching. It seemed that I could only take off my leggings. My face turned as red as a tomato as I looked at him and gritted my teeth, saying: "Help me take off my pants, quickly!"
I cried, it hurt too much, the heart-wrenching pain overshadowed the itch
Dynamite can be ignited by simply rubbing it against the wall a couple of times, while I crush several black insects that are very close to me.
At that moment, a sound resembling Liu Kede's voice suddenly came from behind the door
Upon hearing this, he stepped back in fright. "Mimi... this is no joke..."
Suddenly, I heard the sound of water. Just as I thought clear water was about to come, a stream of black, dirt-laden water sprayed out!
What is that! A creature resembling a small snake is on my left leg, enjoying sucking my blood!
Therefore, the explosion here will not be noticed by anyone, as the abandoned physics laboratory is located at the farthest point; even if we scream our lungs out, no one will come to rescue us
I disgustedly hold my stomach, even though there is nothing left to feel nauseous about
Who, who will save us! Come quickly! Save us!
"I'm allergic, meow | meow, I need to suck the poison out." After he dealt with that damn bug, he came over, squatted down, and said to me.
Suddenly, my foot slipped, and I didn't know what I had stepped on. My ankle twisted—"Ah!"—and I fell into the water in a splendid manner
Without hesitation, I rolled up my pant legs, took off my shoes and socks, and as I took the first step, the bone-chilling water and the books pierced my nerves, causing me to shiver!
Do you want this poison to corrode your entire body
I silently count down in my heart: 3...... 2...... 1...
Chen Yanlu was engaged in a strenuous battle less than ten steps away from me, using his shoe to stomp on the head of a black insect, which burst and splattered black juice upon being crushed
He nodded slightly, climbed down, and said, "I apologize for the intrusion"
In the future, do not interfere in any matters that occur at the school. Otherwise ... ...
The hemp rope in my hand was unintentionally bitten through by a black insect. I opened the cap of the antidote vial and allowed the gradually fading consciousness of Yanlu to drink it.
Yan Lu turned her face away and looked elsewhere, unfastening my belt. I also felt particularly uncomfortable, my wrists struggling, leaving behind red marks.
The damp and cold temperature of the basement quickly rendered my body icy, and occasionally a few insects crawled by; I was truly relieved that they did not crawl onto me
At this moment, a wave of despair towards the world engulfed my entire being. I desperately slammed my shoulder against the wooden door, but there was not a single sign of movement.
A magnetic young man approached from ahead
He could only place it on the abandoned fountain's ledge and searched for clean water resources. Fortunately, he discovered a faucet in the center of the pool just in time. I looked again at the pool that needed to be crossed. Wow, it was filled with garbage bags, and the black water was covered with green moss.
This is not good; if this continues, he will be poisoned all over and die
Perhaps it is the scent of the herbs that makes them hesitate to approach us for the time being
I can only feel my whole body boiling, wanting to curse this school to death
