C80 (1/2)

As I walked down the corridor with the baby in my arms, I picked up a torch. Chang Tianba was walking in front while I followed behind. As we passed a small room, I suddenly heard someone mumbling from inside.

”Master Chang, wait a moment, this looks like someone!” I quickly called out to Chang Tianba, but he stopped speaking. I placed the infant in my arms on the floor and held up a torch to enter the room where the voice came from.

The room was not large, and was surrounded by stones. In the light of the torches, I could see that there was only a table and a few stools in the room. In the hole in the middle of the table was a man's head.

The voice came from her, and when I looked under the table there was a round barrel, and this man was locked in here, and there was no need to think about it, this man was locked up here as food, and the image of the barn eating his brain came to me, and I tried to lift the table, but the table didn't move, and the four legs of the table were nailed to the ground.

I pulled the four legs out of the floor and threw the table aside. In the middle bucket was a girl whose face was smeared with dirt that made it impossible to see how big she was, but she had her eyes closed and a faint sound came from her mouth. I didn't know how long she had been locked up here, but she was extremely weak.

I tried to call out to her, but she didn't react. I tried to pull her out of the bucket, put my hands under her arms, and just as I was about to lift her up, she suddenly frowned and let out a painful groan. What was going on?

Right at this moment, Chang Tianba entered the room. Seeing how helpless I was, he asked me what was wrong, and I told him the situation. He walked over, and with a swing of his tail, he slapped the barrel, giving me a fright.

With a 'pah' sound, the bucket was shattered into pieces and the person inside weakly fell to the ground. I couldn't help but give Chang Tianba a thumbs up.

I patted the girl's face in an attempt to wake her up, but she didn't react at all. Chang Tianba said, ”If you want her, just take her up. The air here is very thin, so she's not suitable for such a weak person.

I touched her hand. It was so cold that I had to carry her on my back. I said to Chang Tianba, ”Master Chang, you're right. Let's hurry up and leave. This place is so cold and humid. I really feel uncomfortable staying here.” Chang Tianba said, ”I'll carry her. Take care of yourself. You're not much stronger than her right now.”

After such a long time of fighting, despite having fox blood on my body, the amount of energy I had expended had exceeded the limits of what I could bear. Now that my mental pressure had subsided, I started to sweat profusely, even my legs and knees became weak. Let alone carrying a person on my back, even if I could climb up dozens of meters into the deep well empty-handed, it was still unknown.

Chang Tianba easily carried her on his back. When we reached the exit, I looked at the sky above the well and suddenly felt that I was very far away from the ground. I felt weak and exhausted, then sat down on the ground, closed my eyes tightly, and felt dizzy and nauseous as the blood in my body churned.

Chang Tianba said to me, ”You … Do you believe me? ” I bitterly smiled and said, ”It's fine even if I can't do it now. I'll just rest for a bit. You should carry her on your back first.” Chang Tianba used his large tail to roll up the baby and said, ”If I send the two of them up, they'll come down. Wait for me.”

I nodded and didn't say anything because I was afraid that I would vomit if I opened my mouth. It seemed that the exhaustion was too great, and my body was too weak to react in such a way.

Chang Tianba carried the unconscious girl in his hands and had a baby on his tail. His speed was not affected in the slightest, and very quickly, he was like a giant gecko as he climbed up.

I took the opportunity to rest for a while and recovered some of my strength. I stood up and used the bulge on the wall to climb up, climbed up a few times, and then my body started to panic. My hands started trembling.

Fortunately, he had not climbed high enough and had fallen flat on his back. At this moment, Chang Tianba's voice could be heard from above, ”Don't move, I'm coming down.”

He quickly came down and carried me on his back as he climbed up. I felt bad as I lay on top of him. I said to him, ”Just now …” I'm sorry. ” He said flatly, ”No, I should thank you.”

I said, ”What are you thanking me for?” He said, ”It's nothing. Let's go up and talk.” He seemed to have no influence behind my back, so he climbed up very quickly, and when my feet touched the ground, I let out a long breath, realizing that the air I used to breathe was so fresh.

Chang Tianba said, ”I'll help you get these two to you. You won't be able to take them away yourself.” I immediately said gratefully, ”Thank you, Master Chang.”
