Chapter 4 Hidden Missions
"Damn it!" Cao Fan was really angry this time. Zhou Yun wanted to kill him at every turn. It was ridiculous that he had just considered cooperating with the other party to escape Ciyun Temple first.
From now on, the two sides have completely become opposites and will fight to the death.
Driven by the desire to survive, Cao Fan, who was behind in taking action, burst out with astonishing speed. He flew up with a kick before Zhou Yuncong could grab the steel knife, and kicked it away before Zhou Yuncong was about to grab it.
After going out, the two of them started fighting each other.
As soon as Zhike Monk noticed what had happened in the stone prison, he shook his head helplessly and left. He was a very special kind person in Ciyun Temple. Although he couldn't stand the greed and cruelty of his master Zhitong, he was helpless as a disciple.
Zhou Yuncong, like Cao Fan, is the first "destiny person" to be recruited. Although he is a newbie, his personality is much more ruthless than Cao Fan. His remaining task is very simple, just get rid of him
If you find the last "lucky person" outside and escape from this stone prison, you have passed the level.
The two of them struggled together, and Zhou Yuncong, who was thin and short, obviously suffered a big loss. Soon Cao Fan succeeded in grabbing the opponent's throat.
As long as Cao Fan works harder, this serious problem that hinders him from completing the mission can be solved once and for all. But at the last critical moment, seeing the expression on Zhou Yuncong's face twisted in pain due to suffocation, he couldn't help but put his hands
The strength relaxed a little.
Cao Fan has never even fought with anyone in his life, and he has never thought about putting someone to death one day. If he hadn't saved his poor daughter who was suffering from illness, he would never have participated in such a cruel competition.
, a trial of survival of the fittest.
"I ask, you answer, just blink your eyes if you agree." Cao Fan said in a deep voice.
Zhou Yuncong blinked desperately, his expression full of begging for mercy.
"Let's stop fighting for the time being and work together to escape from this stone prison. Then we will fight and kill each other, and then each of us will deal with it according to our own abilities."
Cao Fan felt that it would not be easy to escape from this stone prison with the strength of one person. The most important thing is that his presence may have affected the direction of the situation. What if those vicious monks come to kill people in advance and he has not had time yet?
If you run away, it will be cool.
Zhou Yuncong blinked hurriedly. Having seen how powerful Cao Fan was, he had given up any intention of continuing to fight with the opponent.
Cao Fan slowly released his grip on the opponent's throat, stood up, and grabbed the steel knife in his hand first. The only weapon was only safe if it was in his own hands no matter what.
Zhou Yuncong struggled to stand up and bowed solemnly to Cao Fan, thanking him for not killing.
The two temporarily put aside their previous festivities and began to study the stone prison carefully. Soon they were pleasantly surprised to find that there was indeed a round hole with a diameter of nearly a foot long on the top of the stone cave, as in the plot. With the help of Zhitong, they gave them the tools to escape.
With all the tools they have, they can escape from this place.
The entrance of the cave is more than three feet high from the ground, but the rope is only two feet long. The two of them still need to use knives to pry bricks from the wall to build a high enough brick stack. These wall bricks are very strong, and Cao Fan consumes a lot of money each time he pries one off.
Due to his strength, he had to stop frequently to rest.
Through the small hole on the top of the cave, you can see that it is thundering and lightning weather outside at this time, and the roaring thunder aggravates the terrifying atmosphere in the stone prison. It is said to be limited to three days, but who knows if those fierce monks will not guard it.
Credit came in early and started killing. It would take two or three days for someone like Cao Fan to dig alone. As the saying goes, the nights are long and the dreams are many, and the most important thing is to escape as soon as possible. Cao Fan was quite good at digging again.
After being exhausted, Zhou Yuncong suddenly said: "Let me do the digging instead. It's faster for two people to alternate."
Cao Fan hesitated for a moment and finally nodded, but he rested for a while to regain some strength before cautiously handing the steel knife in his hand to the opponent. At this time, even if Zhou Yuncong suddenly attacked, he still had enough confidence to proceed.
response.
Zhou Yuncong took the steel knife and began to work hard to pry the bricks on the wall without saying a word. It was after he was exhausted that he handed the steel knife to Cao Fan to rest. The two of them took turns in this way, which was very efficient.
As expected, the number of bricks increased significantly. In just over a day, a stack of bricks seven or eight feet high was built.
After prying off the last wall brick, Zhou Yuncong handed the steel knife back to Cao Fan. His whole body was like a deflated rubber ball, lying on the ground motionless, obviously exhausted.
For a moment, Cao Fan considered taking advantage of Zhou Yuncong's exhaustion to go over and give him a knife. In this way, he would become the only survivor. Once he escaped from this stone prison, he would declare that the mission was completed.
But he really couldn't do it. This week Yuncong was small and thin, and he looked like a young boy in his teens. Especially during the changing of the guard, the opponent had many opportunities to use steel knives to sneak attack him, but
Such a thing has never happened. He really can't bring himself to kill the other party like this now.
Cao Fan really didn't want to kill anyone unless he had to. After all, the task given by the system was to escape from the stone prison. If he completed the task, he might be able to pass smoothly, so why force himself to do such a thing against his will?
Next, Cao Fan tied a rope to the steel knife that had already been rolled up. Standing on the top of the brick pile, he started to dance the steel knife towards the exit of the cave roof. As long as the steel knife could be hung at the entrance of the cave, he could follow the rope.
Climb up.
It's just that throwing a knife is indeed a skill. It's impossible to hit the target in a hurry. Cao Fan tried more than ten times and couldn't even make the steel knife fly out of the hole.
Feeling that he was not strong enough, Cao Fan simply used all his strength this time and threw it upwards in the direction of the cave entrance. Unexpectedly, he used too much force, and the end of the rope actually flew out of his hand, and the whole steel knife hit the cave wall.
It made a crisp "dang" sound and then slid down.
Cao Fan's face was a little hot, and he walked down from the pile of bricks and started groping in the darkness. It was already late at night the next day. Although there was a faint moonlight shining through the small hole on the roof of the cave, there was nothing inside the stone prison.
Still very dim.
After searching for a while, Cao Fan finally vaguely spotted the light of the steel knife, and excitedly stepped forward to pick it up. At this moment, he suddenly felt a gust of wind coming from behind him, and before he could make any reaction, he was hit hard on the back of his head.
After a moment, the world suddenly turned dark, and the whole person lost consciousness.
Zhou Yuncong slowly put down the bloody brick in his hand, leaned over and gasped for air. The sneak attack just now used up all his remaining strength. If he misses again, his mission to "Shushan World" will be ruined.
will end in failure.
A series of prompt messages appeared in Zhou Yuncong's mind:
Mission 2: Snipe the lucky person No. 3587 to escape from trouble. (Completed, reward 100 points.)
Mission 3: Escape from the stone prison. (Already started.)
After a long time, Zhou Yuncong finally fully recovered his strength. He glanced at Cao Fan who was lying on the ground with a complicated expression, not knowing whether he was alive or dead, and said in his heart: "3587, don't blame me. If I let you pass, my mission will fail.
These mission points are very important to me, and I have no choice at all."
...
In a daze, Cao Fan only felt that he was falling into an endless sea of darkness. He swam and swam with all his strength, even though there seemed to be no end in front of him. Not only that, from time to time, turbulent waves would hit his whole body.
Roll it up and throw it back to the original place. Even so, he still gritted his teeth and insisted on swimming forward. Because he always had an obsession in his heart, that is, he could not die yet, at least he could not die before rescuing his daughter.
Driven by this little bit of consciousness, he kept moving forward tirelessly in the darkness. After an unknown amount of time, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in front of him, as if guiding him in the direction. Cao Fan swam forward even more crazily.
Go, getting closer to the light spot little by little. There was a burst of light, his body began to tremble, and his eyes suddenly opened.
It turned out to be a dream!
Looking at the hole at the top of the stone prison and feeling the severe pain that almost exploded from the back of his head, Cao Fan was sure that he was not dead. He finally made it through!
Zhou Yun had already disappeared. There was no doubt that the other party climbed out of the cave with the help of ropes and steel knives. And in order to avoid being chased directly by the vicious monk along the ropes, he also took away the ropes and steel knives. This is tantamount to
Cao Fan, who had narrowly escaped death, had his last chance to escape from the stone prison.
With a "ding" sound, a series of reminder messages appeared in Cao Fan's mind:
No. 3587 "The Luck Man" increases the luck points by 10 points, increases the physical training potential value by 5 points, and increases the endurance attribute by 3 points. It increases the martial arts potential value by 5 points (the total of the three attribute points of strength, endurance, and agility cannot exceed the martial arts potential value).
