Chapter 157 Fell Off
Fu Qingzhou felt like a tree that had been ravaged by a violent storm. It was crumbling in the storm, its branches and leaves were blown to pieces by the strong wind, and the trunk was in unbearable pain from the heavy rain, as if It could collapse at any time.
He didn’t know how long he rolled, how many rocks he bumped into, or where he fell. The loud noise and air waves from the explosion made his eardrums hurt. This fall was a near miss. It didn't kill him.
Of course he also tried to stabilize his body, but for some reason, the strength in his body seemed to be drained. The most he could do was curl himself into a ball and hug his head to prevent being knocked into an idiot.
He couldn't even shout. Before he could even let out a groan of pain, he was pushed back into his throat by a new bump.
As for Qiu Chan...
I can't control it anymore, just hope for the best...
After an unknown amount of time, he finally fell heavily to the ground.
"Oh - it hurts!"
Fu Qingzhou was finally able to shout out completely.
He coughed heavily and reached out to touch the most painful places on his body to determine whether the bones were broken.
It would have been better if he didn't probe. But when he probed, his heart suddenly felt cold.
Three ribs are broken, and there should be bone fractures in the left calf. The most serious one is the right hand. Because I have to protect the jade pendant from breaking, and I have been hit by sharp stones many times, my flesh and blood are already mutilated. The fingers were also twisted into twists.
As for other parts of his body, there were more or less scars, but fortunately the impact was not major and no internal organs were hurt. What made him most relieved was that his head was not injured and his five senses were still intact.
Fu Qingzhou took a deep breath and raised his head.
But he couldn't see anything, he couldn't see anything here, there was no light at all.
In desperation, he had no choice but to stretch out his intact left hand, dip it in some of his own blood, and write a talisman on the ground.
After finishing the last stroke, the characters began to flicker, then scattered into a little fluorescent light and floated into the air.
This is the most basic fluorescent talisman. It can also be used in the realm of spiritual aperture. It does not consume much, but the lighting effect is limited.
But fortunately, Fu Qingzhou is a martial artist and has extremely strong eyesight. With this little fluorescent light, he can see his surroundings clearly.
This is not an underground river at all, but an extremely deep underground cave.
Looking up, you can see the pitch black with no ceiling, surrounded by countless tall stalagmites. They are like ancient giants, standing in the depths of the cave for thousands of years.
Looking around, Qiu Chan was nowhere to be seen. However, his long bow was still there, dropped a few steps away, and the iron arrows were scattered on the ground.
"Hey, old guy."
Fu Qingzhou weakly called out: "Didn't you say this is an underground river? Why is it a cave?"
"It fell sideways..."
The smoker's voice also sounded extremely weak: "At the last moment of casting the spell, the explosion affected me. There was no other way. I can save your lives."
< br>"Qiu Chan is missing." Fu Qingzhou frowned and said, "Do you know where she is?"
"Only the ghost knows...Oh no, I am also a ghost, and the ghost doesn't even know."< br>
The smoker said hoarsely: "I guess he and I rolled in different directions when we fell, but it probably won't be too far."
Fu Qingzhou sighed.
"Then what's going on with me?"
He asked: "Why is my body completely empty of energy?"
"Nonsense!" Smoker He scolded: "I took you two through a land more than ten feet thick with just a jade pendant. How could I possibly do it without draining the breath from your bodies?"
"Anyway..."< br>
Its voice weakened: "I have no strength now, don't count on me, just survive on your own." Fu Qingzhou: "..."
So far, it's nothing. It's good to say, at least his life was indeed saved.
He was not killed by the explosion, and Wu Tu was trapped in the mud and suffocated to death halfway through his escape. He only suffered a fracture from the fall, so he was lucky.
But now trying to drag this broken body to find Qiu Chan and escape from this inexplicable cave can be regarded as a nightmare purgatory level of difficulty.
After half-lying on the ground and resting for a long time, Fu Qingzhou finally regained his strength.
He crawled a few steps, picked up the long bow, used the long bow as a crutch, and finally stood up with difficulty.
The iron arrows scattered on the ground... After hesitating for a moment, he started to pick them up.
No one knows how big this cave is and how difficult it is to get out. It is always good to have more things around.
It took him a lot of energy to pick up the arrows. After picking up the arrows scattered on the ground, Fu Qingzhou felt the pain in the broken ribs that made it difficult to breathe. He had to find a stalagmite to sit down and rest. .
It was okay not to sit down, but as soon as he sat down, all the fractures that had not hurt so much started to hurt, especially his right hand. The five fingers were so painful that he was covered in cold sweat from the pain.
After taking a few deep breaths to calm down, Fu Qingzhou turned his attention to the pile of iron arrows he had just picked up.
"Alas..."
He sighed, took out the iron arrow and stepped on it, pulled out the wave-cutting knife with his left hand, chopped off the arrowhead with one knife, and then chopped off the arrow feathers, and then He took out another arrow and did the same thing.
After doing this, he got several iron splints.
The next thing was to tear off the clothes with difficulty, tear them into strips of cloth, and bind the iron rods to fix the fractures.
During this process, it was inevitable to correct the crooked bones. Fu Qingzhou could only do it by himself. The pain almost made him faint several times, but he still gritted his teeth and continued.
After fighting with himself for a long time, he finally fixed all the splints, especially the twisted fingers on his right hand. Every time he straightened them, he almost died.
But if left untreated, this hand may become useless over time.
After doing all this, a new question comes.
After experiencing such terrible physical exertion, Fu Qingzhou was hungry.
Not only hungry, but also thirsty.
But he has nothing to eat now...
If he was hungry in normal times, he would be hungry, but Fu Qingzhou knew very well that he was now covered in injuries and had lost a lot. Blood, this place is extremely thin and weak, and the cave is also very cold. If you don't eat to replenish calories, you will probably die of hypothermia in a short time.
"The old smoker said before that he fell sideways and fell into the underground river... This at least means that there is an underground river nearby."
He secretly thought: "As long as there is an underground river, then at least there will be water, and some mushrooms will probably grow in humid places, and then there will be food... If you are lucky, there may be fish and shrimp in the underground river. . "
Thinking of this, even though Fu Qingzhou was tired, in pain, and about to faint from exhaustion, he still stood up holding on to his long bow.
Step by step, step by step...
The cave was so big that he seemed to be in a boundless underground world with no idea of the end.
The fluorescent talisman gradually lost its effect, so he continued to draw talismans on himself with blood and summoned the fluorescent light again.
As he went deeper, the topography of the cave became more and more complex. Sometimes he needed to bypass the huge stone mantle, and sometimes he needed to crawl through narrow stone gaps. Countless stalactites hung like ice on the ceiling of the cave, glowing under the fluorescent light. There was a faint light shining under the light.
Just when his physical strength was about to be completely exhausted, a gentle tapping sound suddenly reached his ears.
Dong, dong, dong...
Listen, it sounds like stones knocking against each other.
