Chapter 216: Icy Waterhole
Anna's steps were a little hesitant at first, but after feeling the power coming from Lin Zifeng's palm, Anna also bravely stepped forward and entered this dragon's lair forbidden land. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The air in the cave was even more turbid than inside the tunnel, as if it had opened a tomb that had been sealed in dust for thousands of years, and although the air movement could still be felt inside, the faint air flow was too small compared to the huge space around it.
Lin Zifeng looked up at the top of the cave, trying to judge how high this cave was, but it was pitch black above his head, and even through his special sight, he still couldn't see the top of the cave clearly. The only thing that is certain is that this cave is the largest of all the caves Lin Zifeng has ever seen.
They walked together to the waterhole in the center of the cave, and Lin Zifeng looked at it, this waterhole was also bottomless, the water quality was very clear, and there were no fish or other creatures in it.
With the water outside the cave, Lin Zifeng could easily think that the waterhole in front of him might also be the seawater seeping in from the sea outside through the underground passage. However, the strange thing is that there are many tropical fish in the outer waters, but this waterhole is like a well dug out of human society, not only the surface of the water is not moving, but there is not even a trace of life in the water.
Could it be that this pool of water is not seawater? Lin Zifeng's heart moved slightly, he stretched out his palm curiously, and the tips of his fingers slowly touched the calm water surface. The cold and piercing feeling instantly spread from Lin Zifeng's fingers to his whole body, making him shiver.
It's so cold, this is Lin Zifeng's first feeling. Now the temperature outside the island is at least thirty-five degrees or more, and the temperature of this pool of water may only be a few degrees, Lin Zifeng did not expect that there would be such a big gap just one cave apart.
He pondered for a while, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face, Lin Zifeng put his palm into the pool again, picked up a small pinch of water and put it to his mouth to taste, there was no taste, and sure enough, as he expected, this pool of water was fresh water.
Lin Zifeng was overjoyed, there were fruits, animals, and all kinds of marine fish on this island, and the only deficiency was the problem of drinking fresh water. Lin Zifeng was still racking his brains to think of various ways at the beginning, according to some wilderness survival movies he had watched, if he wanted to drink fresh water on the island, he could use the method of natural evaporation of seawater, and the evaporated water vapor would naturally become fresh water after it was collected. But without the tools, this method is complicated to operate, and the progress of collecting fresh water is slow, and it is uncertain if it will be enough for herself and Anna to drink.
Of course, if there is really not enough fresh water, at least there are still large patches of fruit on this island, so there is no need to worry about water shortage in a short time. But after all, fruit can not only provide water but also make people feel full, and it is not a way to go on in the long run. Now a large pool of fresh water suddenly appeared in front of him, which was simply to make his life on the island easier in the future.
Just now, when he felt that the temperature of this pool of water was very different from the outside world, he had already guessed that the source of this clear water was definitely not the sea outside, but most likely from the groundwater. And the water source must be very deep from the ground to make the water so cold. As it turned out, his conjecture was correct.
"Nana, come and taste it, this water is fresh water!" Lin Zifeng said excitedly.
Anna frowned a little puzzled, she secretly wondered in her heart, the green dragon who lived here didn't need fresh water, why would he dig such a waterhole in his cave? Anna herself is a mermaid, and she doesn't need fresh water like dragons, so after hearing Lin Zifeng's words, she didn't seem to be very excited.
Anna symbolically scooped a sip of water with the palm of her hand and drank it, without the slightest salt in it, which made Anna feel that it was not delicious at all, "Brother Feng, I still think the sea water is more delicious." ”
Lin Zifeng shook his head helplessly, he knew that his Nana taste had always been a bit heavy, and the meals he used to cook at home were also salty in Lin Zifeng, but he didn't expect this little Nizi to drink fresh water and want to drink sea water? Lin Zifeng said solemnly, "Nana, sea water can't be drunk, you must drink fresh water in the future." ”
Anna had an embarrassed smile on her face, "Got it, Brother Feng." ”
In addition to the waterhole, Lin Zifeng and Anna found that the cave contained many items used by humans, such as a stone table and a stone bench, on which were placed a bundle of bamboo slips, which had been covered with dust.
Lin Zifeng picked up the bamboo slips on the stone table and slowly spread them out, and he could vaguely see some words written in ink on them, but because of the age, these handwriting was no longer legible.
Five meters away from the stone table and stone bench, there was a large stone bed, which looked like it was cut from a huge piece of jade.
There was only one pillow on the stone bed that was also turquoise, and it seemed that the owner who had lived here before was only single. Lin Zifeng saw the surrounding arrangement, except for the simple style, it looked no different from ordinary humans. But the more ordinary it was, the more strange it became, and according to his own speculation, it shouldn't be a human being who lived here. But seeing the furnishings inside with his own eyes is what human life can only look like, which makes Lin Zifeng have a contradictory mystery in his heart.
"Brother Feng, let's go quickly, if Qinglong comes back, it will be trouble," Anna said with some uneasiness.
Lin Zifeng smiled and pointed around, "Nana, you see that these stone tables and stone beds are all covered with dust, even if there is really a green dragon living in this cave, it was a long time ago." Lin Zifeng teased.
Because of the fear of the green dragon, Anna has not calmed down, and it is only now that it dawns on her, she looks around, except for the lit oil lamp, there is indeed no life.
Anna suddenly turned from extreme worry to complete excitement, she clapped her hands and said, "Wow, great, Brother Feng, this dragon's lair will be ours in the future!" ”
For Anna to insist that this is the dragon's lair, Lin Zifeng can only laugh at it, if this is a place to live in the future, it is indeed a very good choice. The climate inside the cave is pleasant, the temperature is about 20 degrees, there is a water source in the center of the cave, there are built stone beds and stone tables around it, and there is an oil lamp that can illuminate the cave.
Lin Zifeng saw Anna's happy appearance, and a happy smile appeared on his face, but when his eyes were aimed at the oil lamp on the wall, his expression stiffened for a while, and he thought of a question, since this cave has been uninhabited for a long time, why has the oil lamp not been extinguished for a long time?
