第194章 CHAPTER XI(4)

The black grumbled something that I could not understand, and then I heard him unlocking the door into one of the other cells on the further side. Listening intently, I caught the sound as the door closed behind him. Then I sprang once more to the top of the partition and dropped into my own cell beside the astonished Xodar.

"Do you see now how we will escape?" I asked him in a whisper.

"I see how you may," he replied, "but I am no wiser than before as to how I am to pass these walls. Certain it is that I cannot bounce over them as you do."

We heard the guard moving about from cell to cell, and finally, his rounds completed, he again entered ours.

When his eyes fell upon me they fairly bulged from his head.

"By the shell of my first ancestor!" he roared.

"Where have you been?"

"I have been in prison since you put me here yesterday,"

I answered. "I was in this room when you entered.

You had better look to your eyesight."

He glared at me in mingled rage and relief.

"Come," he said. "Issus commands your presence."

He conducted me outside the prison, leaving Xodar behind.

There we found several other guards, and with them the red Martian youth who occupied another cell upon Shador.
