Ha, ha!
The sound of panting urgently rang in his ears.
Qian Jiangyue tried to open his eyes, but found his eyelids incredibly heavy, as if filled with lead. Before he could open them, he realized he was sprinting, then, a continuous tearing sensation struck his chest.
A series of questions emerged in his mind: Where am I? What am I doing? Why am I here?
Before he had time to think deeper, suddenly, his foot slipped, and a feeling of weightlessness came over him. He was falling, but to where was still a question mark.
At the moment of impact, with a clap, the sound of bones shattering drowned out all other noises.
After a brief silence, his eyes opened, revealing bright light, a few rays seeped through the cracks in the rocks, illuminating the narrow cave. He was lying in an unknown underground cave, and beyond the faint light from the cracks, the distance was pitch black, evoking a sense of fear.
