goodbye
Li Ping'an's hands were numb from the pain, and blood kept dripping from his hands corroded by mucus. Looking at the countless catfish monsters around him, Li Ping'an felt a little desperate and even thought about giving up. After all, he could still be resurrected.
This idea seemed to be bewitching Li Ping'an. Li Ping'an's movements of swinging the dagger became slower and slower, and the wounds on his body became more and more. From a distance, Li Ping'an looked like a bloody man.
What's worse is that some vines around seemed to sense the smell of blood, and they spread silently and wrapped around Li Ping'an's legs. Li Ping'an was not paying attention for a moment and almost tripped and fell.
This action made Li Ping'an's chaotic consciousness clearer. He swung the dagger to cut off the vines on his legs. Li Ping'an knew that he could no longer be entangled with these things.
At this time, Li Ping'an looked up and saw that the headless girl had returned to the river. A glimmer of hope flashed through Li Ping'an's mind. He stepped on the catfish and jumped to the river without stopping.
Then, with a "splash", Li Pingan jumped directly into the river.
The river water splashed on the headless girl. She paused, not knowing what she was thinking of, and followed Li Pingan into the river.
After Li Ping'an jumped into the river, he found that the water was extremely turbid and he could not see anything in front of him. Li Ping'an could only swim forward based on his intuition, leaving traces of blood behind him.
The catfishes on the ground watched Li Ping'an dive into the river, and they all twisted their bodies to try to dive back into the river, but some of them were entangled by vines.
The vines couldn't tell what they were entangled with, they could only feel the prey struggling. The more it struggled, the tighter the vines wrapped around it, and slowly dragged it back to its nest.
As if they smelled the scent here, more and more vines crawled over. When the catfish monsters saw their companions being caught, they all turned around and bit the vines.
The fight on the ground did not affect Li Pingan underwater. After adapting to the dim water for a while, Li Pingan felt that she could see a wider range. But at this time, her oxygen was insufficient, so she could only float to the surface to breathe.
While Li Ping'an was gasping for breath, the headless girl also floated up from the water, and Li Ping'an was startled by her.
After she realized what was happening, she quickly patted her chest and sighed, saying that she really did it without anyone noticing.
At this time, Li Ping'an had already swam to the center of the river, but still could not find the exit, so he could only look around anxiously.
The headless girl on the side was originally staying by Li Ping'an's side. Suddenly, she seemed to be attracted by something and swam straight in one direction.
Seeing this, Li Ping'an hurriedly followed.
But the headless girl swam too fast and soon disappeared in front of Li Ping'an. Li Ping'an slapped the water on the spot and looked around, but he couldn't find the headless girl.
Just when Li Ping'an was about to give up, the headless girl's shoulders were revealed in the distance. When Li Ping'an saw it, he hurriedly chased after her.
The headless girl waited there for a while, and only continued to swim forward after she felt Li Pingan catching up.
Li Ping'an looked around and found that the surrounding scenery had changed. Previously, there were flowers and green grass, but now it suddenly turned into black dead trees with strange shapes.
Li Ping'an felt curious, but didn't dare to look any further. After all, the headless girl had no intention of stopping to appreciate the scenery.
Li Ping'an didn't know how long he had been swimming behind her. He just felt his arms and legs were extremely sore, and his paddling frequency had slowed down a lot.
Li Ping'an didn't dare to look at his hands now. The flesh on his hands had been corroded before, and now after being soaked in water, the broken flesh was falling out.
Even though it was his own hand, Li Pingan felt disgusted.
Fortunately, just when Li Ping'an was tired and desperate, the headless girl actually stopped.
Li Ping'an had always thought that her head was at the bottom of the river, but when she got there, she found that there was a small island in the middle of the river, a very small island, only about ten square meters in size.
Just as the two of them went up, Jiu Qi, who was standing in the room overlooking "Cuckoo" eating, suddenly frowned, then turned his head to look where Li Ping'an was.
After Li Ping'an and the other man arrived on the island, the headless girl became excited, ran forward two steps, then squatted on the ground and started digging.
But as soon as her hand touched the ground, the ground began to shake violently, and Li Ping'an was almost shaken down.
Seeing the island shaking more and more violently, Li Pingan had no choice but to kneel on the ground, holding on to the ground tightly with his hands.
The headless girl ignored the shaking and continued digging frantically on the ground.
Li Ping'an couldn't bear to watch, so he slowly moved over, took out the dagger in his arms, and started digging with them.
The more he dug, the more violently the island shook. In the end, Li Ping'an had to stick the dagger into the ground to keep his body stable and use his other hand to dig with his bare hands.
As if realizing that shaking was useless, the island slowly sank and gradually submerged the two people's heads.
The moment he entered the water, Li Ping'an opened his eyes and saw a circle of red eyes surrounding him.
At first, Li Ping'an thought it was a fish or some other aquatic creature, but as the red eyes got closer, Li Ping'an almost choked on the water.
This was actually a group of people, or rather a group of human-like monsters, with red eyes, extremely sharp teeth, slender limbs, a long tail, and an extremely large head.
After seeing Li Ping'an and the other person, this group of humanoid monsters rushed over excitedly at an extremely fast speed. Before Li Ping'an could react, a piece of flesh was bitten off her arm.
Li Ping'an took out a dagger and swung it hard, but the resistance in the water was too great and Li Ping'an couldn't hurt a single monster.
As the monster attacked, the surrounding water was dyed red. Li Ping'an's hands moved slower and slower, his body felt heavier and heavier, and he gradually wanted to close his eyes.
Suddenly, the monsters around him suddenly scatter with their tails between their legs. Li Pingan had used up all his strength at this time and couldn't figure out why. He could only let himself sink to the bottom of the river.
The headless girl seemed to sense that Li Ping'an was out of strength, and wanted to swim towards him, but was directly knocked out by a force and fell into the black dead woods.
Li Ping'an was in a trance and felt that a pair of hands were hugging her, but she was too tired to see the person in front of her clearly.
Jiu Qi looked at Li Ping'an, who was pale and covered in blood in his arms, and wondered whether to leave her here to feed the "humanoids".
After thinking for a while, Jiuqi decided to take Li Pingan back. After all, she was not useful here.
When Li Ping'an woke up again, she thought everything that had happened before was just a dream, and she was still lying on the soft bed.
But as soon as she moved, Li Ping'an knew it was not a dream. She grimaced in pain and raised her hand to see that her hand was wrapped in some bandages crookedly. It was obvious that the person who bandaged it did not put much care into it at all.
Li Ping'an endured the pain and sat up with the help of his hands. He thought that there would be no one in the room this time, but when he turned around, he found Jiu Qi sitting at the table drinking tea.
Seeing Li Pingan wake up, Jiu Qi put down the teacup in his hand and looked at her steadily, "Did someone let you go?"
Jiuqi knew that Li Ping'an only had a useless prop on him. If he didn't have help from others, he would never be able to get out of this door even if he died a thousand times.
Li Ping'an pursed her lips and did not answer. Although she did not like the masked man, she was happy to see the masked man Yin Jiuqi.
Then Li Pingan said, "I'm thirsty."
After hearing this, Jiu Qi nodded and pointed to the teapot on the table, indicating that there was water in it and she could help herself.
Li Ping'an wanted to get out of bed, but found that her legs were too painful. It was as if she had climbed Mount Tai all night, and then went down the mountain to climb Mount Hua, and then climbed Mount Hua again. In short, her legs felt like they were filled with lead, and it was painful to move them.
Li Ping'an tried to move her legs to get out of bed, but found Jiu Qi sitting beside her, looking at her with a hint of amusement on his face.
She didn't want to be treated like a monkey, so she moved her legs back again after just moving them a little, collapsed on the bed, and pretended to be asleep. She didn't believe that she would die of thirst.
Jiu Qi almost laughed out loud when he saw Li Ping'an's behavior. He now felt that Li Ping'an was much more interesting than the people around him.
After waiting for a while and finding that Li Ping'an really had no intention of getting out of bed to drink water, Jiu Qi picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea, and came to Li Ping'an's side.
Li Pingan glanced at Jiuqi out of the corner of his eye, but ignored him.
Jiu Qi sat down, helped Li Pingan up with one hand, and handed the tea to her with the other hand, "Drink it."
He would be so kind, could it be that he had poisoned her?
Seeing Li Ping'an's suspicious expression, Jiu Qi said, "Don't worry, it's not poisonous."
"Besides, poison can't kill you, right?"
"Or are you scared?"
What a joke, Li Pingan thought to himself, even if I am scared, you can still see it.
Thinking of this, Li Pingan took a sip of tea from his hand. Who would have thought that the moment it entered his mouth, Li Pingan spit it out. While laughing, he pointed at Jiu Qi with his bandaged hand, "You, you actually want to burn me to death!"
Li Ping'an's actions were beyond Jiu Qi's imagination, causing him to be sprayed with water in the face. At this time, his face was a little confused, as if he didn't understand why Li Ping'an said that.
Seeing Jiuqi's expression, Li Pingan continued to accuse, "Can't you feel the hot water?!"
As he spoke, Li Ping'an touched the cup in Jiuqi's hand with the only unbandaged index finger of his right hand, and immediately admired him. This man was really amazing. In order to coax her to drink hot water, he could hold the cup for such a long time without changing his expression.
After hearing what Li Ping'an said, Jiu Qi lowered his eyes and looked at the teacup in his hand. After looking carefully, he noticed the hot steam coming out of it.
"Okay, I've drunk it all. Put the cup down quickly. Don't you see that your hands are all burned red?" Li Pingan thought to himself, Jiu Qi is acting too well and he still refuses to put the cup down.
"By the way, is the painting in the corridor yours?" Li Ping'an was caught again. He was no longer as frightened as last time. He was even in the mood to find out some information.
