Chapter 61: The Old Virgin
Wu Xin ignored me, still studying the corpse on the ground by herself. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 I clenched the mahogany sword in my hand, keeping an eye out for movement in the water, and then cautiously stepped forward and pulled my backpack back from the shallow water. Those monsters don't know if they were frightened by my peachwood sword, and even if they heard the movement, they didn't see any of them jump out of the water and catch me.
The torches were completely unusable by the water-soaked ones, the flashlights were still on, and the ones that were eaten were some sealed packaged food, which had not been damaged in the battle, so they were also complete. Before going down to the ancient tomb, Xu Ze gave everyone a windproof lighter, and Wu Xin's entire backpack fell into the lake, and these things were naturally gone.
Fortunately, the lighter in my bag is still there. But when I lit the lighter, I found a problem. Because the fire engine is flooded, we can't light it for a long time, but we have to ask for a fire, otherwise we may freeze to death depending on the temperature.
Feeling the temperature of the underground, I was even more convinced to repair this lighter.
"Why light the fire, aren't we going to go down into the water for a while?" Wu Xin suddenly turned his head and asked curiously.
"Still in the water, what about those monsters under the water?" I was surprised.
"If we don't go into the water, are we going to stay on this island forever?" Wu Xin asked rhetorically.
I touched my chin and looked at the island. The island was small, but it was covered with small groves, and the trees were so lush that one after the other obscured the small patch in the middle of the island.
"Let's get some useful tools on the island, even if it's a small wooden valve, it's much safer than in the water." I looked at Wu Xin and said.
Wu Xin finally gave up on the corpse underground, because she didn't have any tools in her hands, and there was no way to support her to conduct an in-depth study of the corpse.
"Alright, let's dry our clothes first, and we'll go to the middle of the island and see if we can find anything useful." Wu Xin took off his coat boldly, revealing the small vest inside, but unfortunately in addition to the light of the flashlight, the rest is the soft light emitted by the stalactite, this light is indeed bright enough compared to the darkness of the ancient tomb, but if you want to use it to see something, the brightness is not enough.
I frantically shook the lighter in my hand, hoping to dry the lighter. Wu Xin began to look around for something to burn, but in the end, she found a few pieces of rotten wood and some tiny branches.
Finally, after countless presses, a docile flame sprang out from the ignition of the lighter, and it burned on the alcohol cotton wool by itself, as if a wise man was quietly thinking about something.
"Finally lit this thing." I looked at the combustion-aiding items that Wu Xin brought, and stammered a little: "Your family directly uses wood for combustion...."
"I have natural gas at home...," Wu Xin said humorously.
"It's not funny." Eventually, I found a few barely dry charms in my backpack, and while I don't know if they will still work, I'm sure he'll be able to ignite them.
There was a pit in the ground that I had dug a long time ago, and I placed the charm at the bottom of the pit, and placed thin branches on top of it, and a few pieces of rotten wood were gently pressed on top. I carefully guarded the flame and lit the charm at the bottom. Although the burning process was a little difficult, the result was gratifying, and I let go of my hand and let the branches press against the charm, watching the flames gradually devour the branches, then the wood, and finally, the simple campfire burned.
Wu Xin brought back some dry rotten wood from time to time, which was very easy to burn, and basically put it on it. After a while, Wu Xin found a lot of rotten wood, and looking at the amount, it was enough to burn overnight. I stopped Wu Xin from continuing to look for him, and asked him to sit by the fire with me, hoping that the heat of the fire would dry our wet clothes quickly.
"Seriously, I think Xu Ze is really interesting to you." I looked at Wu Xin and said with a smile.
Since I joined the supernatural task force, I found that Xu Ze had to go to the scientific research group once a day, and for one reason a day, but no matter what the reason, the first person he went to see in the scientific research team was definitely Wu Xin.
"Really? I didn't feel anything, he was the leader of the task force, and every day he had to hand over the evidence or some strange things collected by the mission to me for me to study, so I didn't feel anything strange. Wu Xin said a little reluctantly.
"But I see the tone in which he talks to you every time, and the kind of maintenance he maintains every time the topic mentions you, it doesn't seem to be a fake." I analyzed.
"Okay, what do you know about a little kid, I really don't have anything to do with Xu Ze." Wu Xin said seriously.
"Our captain Xu is also good, and he is responsible, humorous, serious, reliable, and he can always appear strangely by your side when you need him, no matter where he was a moment ago. Such a man is not said to be excellent, it is definitely a good product, and he is really interesting to you, but I don't know how you feel about him. I said to Wu Xin with a smile.
"What do you feel, what can I feel about him, it's absolutely impossible for a divorced young woman to be with him." Wu Xin shook his head.
"No" I looked at Wu Xin, although the light was dim, I could still see Wu Xin's amazing figure, as for the appearance, I felt that I didn't say anything, such a person, looking not very old, was already a divorced person.
"Sister Wu, ask an impolite question, how old are you this year?" I asked cautiously.
Wu Xin obviously glanced at me, and was silent for a while before saying, "Twenty-eight."
"Then you really don't have any feelings for Xu Ze?" I asked again.
"I really don't feel it, Xu Ze is only one year older than me, even if such a man is not married at this age, he should have dated several girlfriends, but do you know? Since I joined the task force at the age of twenty-four, I haven't seen him have a girlfriend, we have also asked him such a question, he said that he just graduated from college and is not ready to talk, he also said that he has never been in love in college and high school, that is to say, who is with Xu Ze now, who is his first love, such a person is naïve and blind whether it is a girlfriend or a marriage, and I like mature men, understand? Wu Xin said to me.
I was suddenly a little stunned: "Xu Ze hasn't talked about a girlfriend until now!" Then this thing pretends to be a saint in front of me every day, it turns out that he is still an old virgin. "I felt like I had been deceived by him.
"Skipping the study stage, why didn't Xu Ze find a girlfriend when he was working? Haven't you thought about it, maybe it's because of you? "I thought about it for a while, and I didn't rule it out.
"Come on, I got married just after graduation, and I met him through my husband." Wu Xin said indifferently.
I didn't want to say anything for a while, this news was no less shocking to me than the first time I learned that there were zombies in this world, can you imagine that a man who is almost thirty years old may even be a virgin?!
I saw that the flames had faded a lot, so I began to fill in the wood, halfway through, and I looked at the fire in my hand and froze.
