Chapter 41 Almost Choked to Death
In the deep corridor, there are jagged rocks and countless stalactites standing high.
Although there was fluorescent light scattered on the dome, it was only as dim as the light of a candle and could not cover all corners.
In the dark corner, four or five raised stalactites were isolated and close together, forming a circle.
Subtle snores quietly flowed out from the gaps in the circle and disappeared into deeper darkness.
Uh. Ah.
With a slight groan, I opened my sleepy eyes, and what I saw was a chaotic darkness.
The biting cold invaded my body, and I couldn't help but hug my arms tightly and shudder.
He struggled to sit up and carefully looked around. In the weak light, he couldn't see anything half a meter away.
I opened my mouth, and a blast of cold air was sucked into my lungs. I coughed violently, as if I wanted to cough my lungs out. I coughed so hard that I couldn't hold my waist up and couldn't breathe.
The violent coughing gradually subsided, and I was like a puddle of mud, lying on the ground weakly, panting heavily.
After exhaling one last breath, my breathing finally calmed down.
As my breathing calmed down, countless questions arose in my mind, two of which concerned me the most: Am I still alive? where is this place?
He stood up, but his palm suddenly slipped and he fell down again.
It hurts!
What is so smooth?
With doubts, I kept groping in the dark, inch by inch, bit by bit. After a long time, I figured out what I was pressing on the bottom of my hand. If I guessed correctly, it should be a complete piece of meat.
This is probably a piece of tissue that I cut off from the tauren boss.
There is an unwritten rule in the dungeon. Before any monster is killed, the severed limbs will not disappear with the death of the monster, but will remain intact.
Before falling, the Minotaur boss should have been killed by the power released by my left arm. Moreover, this force was not only powerful, but also very messy. It directly dismembered the Minotaur boss, and the body connected to the head and heart would It disappeared with the end of life, but the remaining body tissues were preserved intact. By some chance, they became a cushion, which cushioned the force of my fall and saved my life.
It was really a narrow escape from death.
I sighed and silently thanked the dead tauren boss. Then I slowly got up from the ground and kept groping around.
By touch, I was able to determine that there was a circle of stalagmites around me.
However, after searching back and forth several times, I couldn't find any exit from here except for the narrow cracks that appeared from time to time.
Isn't this a stalagmite, but a stone prison?
I frowned and felt a little chilled, but I was still not discouraged.
I groped upwards along one of the stone pillars and soon reached the top. I straightened up and measured it. It was okay. It was not as high as my shoulders. I could barely climb out.
My hands kept groping on the two stone pillars next to each other. Well, the surface was rough and dry.
Hold the top of the column with both hands, use both arms to exert force suddenly, and at the same time, step on the column with left and right foot turns, moving upward one by one.
The higher I move, the more strength I need. Soon, big beads of sweat are dripping down, and soreness keeps attacking my arms, but I can't give up!
Because once all the previous efforts are wasted, if you want to survive, you can only use this body to knock down the stone pillars forcefully.
Think about my barely strong body, colliding with a hard stone
Hehe, just looking for death.
With no other option, I gritted my teeth and tried my best again.
Soon, both feet reached the right height, and it was time to make the final struggle!
His heart skipped a beat, his feet jumped, and his body jumped into the air. He flipped a standard 360 degrees in the air and stood firmly on the ground.
I did it, I did it!
Although there was no applause or cheers, I gave myself a perfect score from the bottom of my heart.
With a proud smile, I took a step forward, and then——
Plop!
My feet slipped and I fell heavily to the ground. My buttocks hit a sharp stalagmite.
Woohoo~~~
This sour taste will kill you!
The chrysanthemums are broken, the ground is covered with wounds, and my tears are flowing.
After struggling for a long time, the severe pain and soreness finally left me. Then I put one hand on my waist and the other on the stone pillar, moving an inch with tears and runny eyes on my face.
Following the direction of the dim light, I quickly left this invisible darkness.
Although I experienced a lot of bumps and bumps in the process, it was much better than the chrysanthemum.
I tried to touch the injured area gently with my hand.
Oh yo yo~
Carefully holding on to the rock wall, what appeared in front of me was a winding path that I had never seen before. The rock walls on both sides were uneven, and in the corners, there were a few solitary glowing grasses growing in the cracks.
He moved forward slowly, like a stiff robot.
Before he had taken a few steps, his stomach rumbled again, and an irritating feeling of hunger arose out of thin air.
Covering his stomach and buttocks, he stood awkwardly for a while and murmured: "Where can I find food in this strange land with no villages or shops?"
While he was in distress, an idea flashed in his mind: Yes, isn't there still meat from the bull-headed boss?
I remember that when I first entered the ranks of adventurers, I was extremely poor. In order to satisfy my hunger, I ate raw monster meat. The fiber was very rough and the meat was not easy to digest. Most importantly, the taste was more unpleasant than tree bark.
If I were not in a difficult situation, I would not even think about it.
With a painful expression on my face, I walked back to the stone pillar helplessly, reached in through the gap in the stalagmite, and groped for a while before I found the meat.
He grabbed a corner of the piece of meat and pulled hard. After a lot of effort, he finally pulled the piece of meat out of the crack.
Dragging the huge piece of meat out of the darkness, I saw its entirety clearly in the dim light of the corridor.
It was a shapeless piece of raw meat.
Although he didn't want to do anything, his stomach fought fiercely and after several struggles, he finally resisted the nausea and bit down.
As expected, the meat was rough and hard to swallow, and the taste was bitter and astringent.
After a lot of effort, he tore off a piece, chewed it hard a few times, tilted his neck, and swallowed it.
However, I swallowed hard, and the piece of meat got stuck in my throat. I couldn't vomit it out or swallow it. It was even difficult to breathe. I was so anxious that I beat my chest and sweated on my forehead.
Finally, after my tireless beating, the piece of meat slid into my stomach as expected.
Uh-huh.
He raised his head and breathed in the air greedily, his heart full of collapse.
What a risk, what a risk, I almost became the first adventurer to be choked to death.
This experience is particularly rare. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely tell this unforgettable life experience to my children and grandchildren in an embellished way, so that they know how difficult it was for me back then.
Merry Christmas Eve
