With great difficulty, he managed to resist the wind and support himself against the wall of the cave. When he reached the entrance of the cave and stuck his head out, Yun Ri Yang immediately sucked in a breath of cold air.
In the distance was pure white snow, a continuous mountain of snow, and below it was a smooth and flat precipice, as well as a huge black spring that stood out amidst the snow. It revealed that the snow beside them was flawless, and at such a height, no matter how good their lightness skills were, they would not be able to descend, let alone the fact that Leng Hong Xiu did not know even the slightest bit of it.
If they tried their best to poke their heads out of the cave, they would discover that a thick layer of snow had accumulated on the surface of the mountain. Not to mention that there were no withering vines or other things that could help them climb up, there was not even a place for them to land and borrow strength from. Not to mention that the cave was half a day high, they had no idea how far it was from the mountain peak.
Right now, they were truly unable to do anything.
Yun Yang did not resist anymore and allowed the strong wind to push his body into the cave. He slumped down onto the ground and looked at Leng Hong Xiu, who was still observing him from head to toe, and shouted softly, "Hong Xiu, forget about it, it seems like we are destined to die here, even the heavens do not help us. It is not easy to find our last escape route, and it would be better if we did not find him."
The strong wind blew away all of Yun Ri Yang's words. Leng Hong Xiu did not hear a single word. She only used her eyes to measure the distance between the cave entrance and the black spring.
Assuming that the spring water was deep enough, and that he would be able to jump down at this height and land in the spring, then his own mass, the acceleration of gravity, and gravity would at least make him sink five to seven meters underwater. As long as he held his breath and didn't get pushed down by the water pressure and atmospheric pressure, it was still possible for him to survive if he swam up quickly.
But if the spring wasn't deep enough, or if the wind and other factors didn't change her direction while she was jumping into the water, then she was dead without a doubt.
Moreover, considering the ability of a heart to withstand pressure, this height was at least five or six hundred meters, which was higher than any building in the world that a human being could go up to, and this height, excluding the blowing of the wind and any other factors that could change the direction of a human being, was the pressure on the heart caused by the rapid descent of a human being from this height. Although her physical ability and ability to resist pressure had been strictly trained, this was the first time she had directly jumped at such a height without any form of protection.
Honestly speaking, Leng Hong Xiu was actually very afraid in her heart. However, if they were to continue staying in this stalactite cave, there was no possibility for them to survive. If they had to gamble, then she would rather jump down.
After making up her mind, Leng Hong Xiu slowly retreated, looking at the gloomy and desperate Yun Ri Yang, she walked over and squatted down in front of him, "Yun Jiu, there is now half a chance for us to survive. Are you willing to bet with me?"
"Hong Xiu, don't joke with us. We are already in such a sorry state, how can we even have half a chance? Do you think that we can climb to the top of the mountain, or jump off a cliff? "
Yun Ri Yang smiled bitterly.
"Climbing up there, none of us have the ability. But jumping down, all we need is courage. Yun Jiu, do you dare?" Leng Hong Xiu stared into his eyes and asked without moving.
"Hong, Hong Xiu, what kind of joke is this? Jump down so high? Even if I don't die, I will die! " Yun Yang immediately jumped up from the ground and retreated two steps back. He looked at Leng Hong Xiu with disbelief in his eyes.
"Staying here is also death. If we jump down, we would be able to survive if we fall into the spring, and of course, we would be able to survive if we do. Even if we jump down, we will die, but isn't the result the same as staying here?" Yun Jiu, no matter what, as long as there is a sliver of a chance, I won't be willing to die. Although dying isn't something I'm afraid of, it's something I don't need. If you compare anything with the desire to live, you can always stay behind. Do you understand what I mean? "
As Leng Hong Xiu spoke, she had already started to tie up her trousers, not allowing the descending wind to blow in, and tightened her belt once more. Although it was a little hard for her to control her stomach, she could not care about this child in these times of emergency. If this went on, regardless of what it was, she would at least give it a life; if she could not, then don't blame her for being ruthless, this was also something that could not be helped.
As for Yun Ri Yang, when he saw Leng Hong Xiu's actions, his hands and feet trembled even more. He said with a trembling voice, "Hong Xiu, you can't possibly be planning to jump down, right?"
"Do I look like I'm telling you the truth?" As Leng Hong Xiu spoke, she passed the hair twine in her hand to him, and at the same time also reached out her sleeve, "Tighten it up for me, the tighter the better. Don't let the wind in."
Yun Yang listened to Leng Hong Xiu's words out of habit, and while trembling he tied her up with a rope, his face was already pale from fright, "Hong Xiu, wait a moment, are you not going to think about it? Think about it again! Okay? "Please!"
"There's no need to think about it. Even if I die early, I will still die later. It would be better to fight for it. This is not the first time I face someone dying, I am no longer afraid to face someone dying." Leng Hong Xiu checked her body again and confirmed that she had brought enough things with her. She had started stretching on the spot so that if she were to fall into the spring later, her limbs would not be stiff or cramping.
"You are not afraid, but I am!" Yun Ri Yang immediately shouted out loudly. After he finished speaking, he squatted down again and buried his head in his knees. It was unknown if he was crying or not.
Leng Hong Xiu immediately stopped her exercise and slowly walked towards him, gently squatting down, patting his shoulder, "Yun Jiu, don't be afraid, it's really nothing, just take it as you are practicing your Qing Gong, but after a while, you will fall back to the ground, only after landing will we be able to leave here alive, do you understand?"
"No, that won't do. I can't do it, Red Sleeve." Yun Ri Yang raised his head. Although he did not cry, his eyes were red and his body was trembling.
"Why can't I do it? You can definitely do it! I am a woman, and I can even do it! You are a man, how can you not do it?"
"I, I'm afraid of heights!"
Yun Ri Yang mumbled for a long time and only managed to utter a few words, causing Leng Hong Xiu to be stunned.
"Don't you know Qing Gong? Why are you afraid of heights? "
Even Qing Gong wouldn't be able to fly this high, not to mention me jumping down from above, it won't work, instead, you should just kill me, and then you can throw my corpse down there, and if you live, you can bury me in the thick snow below, and even if I die, I won't die here alone, and even if you die, we can still be together, and although no one collects our corpse, after a thousand years, someone might come down the mountain and find our corpse buried under the snow, and reerect a grave for us, that would be enough for me to be satisfied.
Hearing his words, Leng Hong Xiu knocked him on the head heavily, "F * ck, what nonsense are you talking about? Burying what? What a mess! If I don't die, I will quickly swim out of the water and wave towards you from the snow. Although you may not be able to see my appearance, but you definitely can see a small black dot, and if you do, you will definitely jump, or else, you will really die here, and if I escape from danger, I won't be able to come back to see you, do you want me to climb up from below to collect your bones? "
At the same time, he added, "You're so anxious that we fell from the flat ground into the black hole, and also from the black hole to the stalactite cave. Although the cave branches are headed towards the top of the mountain, the slope of the cave is not high, which is to say, even if we go up, it's very limited. Now that the spring is at the bottom of the cave, it should be even lower.
Yun Ri Yang nodded his head shakily, "So, so what?"
"But did you notice that the spring was not frozen? What did this mean? It means that the spring water is hot, which means it's hot, so if we jump down there, our chances of survival will be even higher. There will definitely be trees, animals, etc, which means it will be easier to find food than here, and as long as we have food, we will definitely survive. We don't know how long we've been trapped here, but it should be at least two months, if we don't go out now, are we really planning to die here? "
"Alright, I've said what I needed to say. It's up to you whether you want to jump now or not. In short, I want to jump down."
Leng Hong Xiu finally stood up and walked towards the direction of the wind tunnel. Yun Ri Yang pulled her back and shook his head at her, "Leng Hong Xiu, no, no, don't be like this, I'm really scared, I don't dare, please kill me."
When Leng Hong Xiu saw his appearance, he trembled violently. His face had actually turned even whiter than the distant snow mountain. She knew that he was truly scared to the point where he could not take the initiative to jump down.
At this time, Sen Luo had just crossed the wasteland and entered the border of the Moon Descent Country under the control of Feng Hongpu.
