I remember that there were candles in the salvaged supplies, but I don't know if they were still there after the last rainstorm.

In a wooden house.

I was rummaging through the cabinets looking for candles, and Nie Chunxian also came to help me find them.

"Are you sure there are candles?"

Nie Chunxian rummaged through a cloth bag, there were some messy broken things in it, there were old batteries and a broken flashlight, she didn't understand why she didn't throw these things away.

"Sure, if you can't find the note was washed away in the rainstorm that night. ”

"By the way, why didn't you lose this flashlight?"

Nie Chunxian picked up the flashlight and patted it, this flashlight was still the old-fashioned flashlight that used two batteries.

But it's no longer usable, it's rubbish.

"It's just that the wiring inside is broken, and the bulb is still intact, and it can still be lit if it is repaired. ”

"Then why don't you fix it?"

During this time, she used tung oil lamps at night, and the light was far worse than the electric lights, and it hurt her eyes, and she felt that her eyesight had decreased slightly.

"It's not that I don't fix it, it's that it's not time yet. I'm going to use it as a signal light. ”

"Signal lights?"

"Nonsense, but those batteries are disposable, and they won't be there after use, and I'm going to fix them when the beacon is built. ”

At that time, if you see a helicopter or boat passing by at night, you can call for help with a signal light.

"Why didn't you tell us before that?"

In fact, Nie Chunxian was more concerned about not telling her, others may be unreliable, but she is not an outsider.

"I told you early that it wouldn't be here now. ”

It's not that I'm bragging, if I really told them in advance that this flashlight could still be used, it would definitely be stolen and snatched, or I would have used it because I couldn't see clearly at night and was afraid of the dark.

"Don't think so badly of everybody. ”

"Okay, you're all good guys, I'm bad guys, so why don't you hurry up and find candles. ”

The contents of the warehouse were rummaged through, and only half of the red candle was found.

Now that you have a candle for early warning, it's time to consider making a few torches for lighting.

There is pine resin in the woods, which is very suitable for fuel.

Early the next morning, we came to the cave that the vice-captain had mentioned.

The entrance to the cave is under a broken wall, and there are many traces of rain washing away next to it.

For example, the stone walls have become very smooth.

There are all kinds of indications that the cave was most likely washed out by floodwater, and if that is the case, it will be very dangerous inside.

However, it's winter, so heavy rainfall is unlikely, and the cave is also a hiding place for wildlife, so it's worth checking in.

"These torches burn for about ten minutes, and there are four torches in total, two at a time. ”

Everything was ready, I lit the torch and led the people inside.

Nie Chunxian and Xiao Qian also came, but I didn't let a few of them in, so they waited outside.

There is sunlight shining into the cave, but the visibility is only about seven or eight meters, and the road behind is not easy to walk even if it is lit by torches.

At the same time, we have to keep an eye on our feet, if one accidentally falls into a crack, the calf will be finished.

Tick...... Tick......

There were droplets of water dripping down from the top of the cave, and a drop of water happened to fall on Zhao Si's face, and he subconsciously looked up.

"What's that?"

When everyone heard the sound, they looked up and saw that there was a dense black shadow directly above the cave.

"It's a bat. ”

I didn't say it out loud because the bats seemed to be quiet, and I didn't want to alarm them, who knows if they were vampire bats or not.

A short distance further on, we smelled a foul odor and something reflected in front of us.

When I got closer, it turned out to be a waterhole, and the stench was emitted by this water, and when I looked closely, there were many things that looked like silt at the bottom of the water, which seemed to be bat droppings, and the stench should also be emitted by bat droppings.

"There are more bats here. ”

The co-captain looked up with a torch, and the number of bats hanging above the waterhole made people's scalps tingle, but fortunately none of the people present had a phobia of denseness.

"What's that?"

Zhao Si pointed to a black shadow in the water, which looked like a big black snake lying in the water.

I picked it up from the water with a torch, and when I looked closely, I felt a chill on my back, because it was a snakeskin.

The widest part of the snake's skin shed from the cave was as wide as a human thigh, which was enough to prove that a large python lived here.

"Oh my God, this snake is probably going to die. ”

Zhao Si was a little apprehensive in his heart, they had broken into someone else's territory, and he even felt that he had already discovered a few of them with a big python.

"It's cold and damp, and a lot of bats means there's plenty of food, and there's a good chance that the big python will live here for a long time. ”

Throwing the snakeskin back into the water, I don't think this place is good for long.

Even though it's winter, the snakes are hibernating, so it's not a good idea to wake up that behemoth.

"So what?"

Just as I was about to return the way I came, the co-captain made an unexpected discovery......

Outside the cave.

Xiao Qian sat on a big rock, and Nie Chunxian leaned against a tree with her hands on her chest.

One of the two looked cute, and the other looked cold.

"Why haven't they come out yet?"

It was Chen Xinyi on the side who asked this, and she had asked seven or eight times in just ten minutes.

"Are you worried about a few of them or about a particular person?"

Xiao Qian said meaningfully.

"Of course, I'm worried about them. ”

Chen Xinyi's face was a little unnatural, and she raised her hand to brush the broken hair around her ear and didn't turn her head.

Nie Chunxian looked at Chen Xinyi lazily with beautiful eyes, this Manager Chen is cold on the outside, but in fact he is hot on the inside, often this kind of woman is the easiest to hang a man's appetite.

I believe that Su Ye should also have thoughts about her, or maybe Su Ye is not alone......

Nie Chunxian thought about it and suddenly came back to his senses when he heard a movement, and his eyes were placed at the entrance of the cave for the first time.

"It's finally out!"

Seeing Su Ye and his group come out, Xiao Qian breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly jumped off the stone.

"Did you find anything?"

Nie Chunxian greeted him and glanced at a backpack I was holding in my hand, which seemed to have been found inside.

"Absolutely. ”

Several backpacks soaked in water were found in the cave, along with a wreckage, which was the remains of a human being.

There was a damaged camera in the backpack, which suggests that a group of explorers had been here.

In addition, I found a small notebook sealed in a plastic bag in my backpack, which was supposed to be a diary.

Adventurers have a habit of keeping a diary.
