Chapter 143: Strength is not heavy
I adjusted my mood, grabbed the torch in my hand, and walked along the passage.
As I walked, I silently looked forward to it in my heart.
I hope to meet the tsundere boy soon.
Even if you meet that uncle!
It's better than me continuing to explore the path alone.
I already know that my uncle is more familiar with the environment in this area than we are.
He's been here at least once.
From the words I heard before I was knocked unconscious by him, I was almost sure of it!
So, if I can meet him this time, I have a lot of questions for him!
How much does he know about the alien camp?
I don't believe he was taken captive at will, because he had already overturned what he had said before.
It was overturned the moment he made a move!
I tend to think that he is doing something he wants to do with a purpose and a plan.
He left Nanhua Town to reach the mountains, and this trip came for this matter!
There must be a secret involved in the nearby mountains.
Aside from him, I can't find anyone who is more familiar with my surroundings or the environment ahead of me at the moment.
It's not like the maps I've seen in the Yuwen family house in Suzhou, a tsundere boy.
Because deep in the mountains, there is no specific map of this area.
All traces or routes can only be traced by groping.
But in this way, the risk is really great for those who are new to this place.
For example, the scene when I dived underwater earlier was very thrilling.
If it weren't for the fact that I was worried that the tsundere boy would be in trouble or even in danger of his life, I would never have taken such a risk as a companion with an unshirkable responsibility!
I didn't hesitate for too long when I did it, and I did it with a little enthusiasm and courage.
When I got ashore and thought about it from the beginning, I felt very scared!
If I had to do it again, I wouldn't have been able to imagine it, so I could only say, never do it a second time!
Of course, I am willing to choose a more secure way to do things, and everyone knows the truth of risk aversion.
The uncertainty of the road ahead can sometimes be worrying.
People are afraid of the unknown and feel mysterious.
At this juncture, the decrepit uncle who appeared, I never expected that he had actually been to this area.
Having been in this area, he will have an impression of his surroundings and may know the road ahead.
This is crucial, at least for now, and his impression in my mind has changed somewhat with his actions.
I believe that for a long time, the people in Nanhua Town did not know this person's heart.
What he had been through, I remembered the look on his face when he heard me talk about the closed shops.
That look can't be connected to the impression he gave me before.
Uncle Decrepit is obviously a man with a story!
Is it the route he walked with the tsundere boy ahead? Looking at the long cave passages, I'm not sure.
At the moment, based on the clues I already know and my own speculation, this is very likely.
When I went underwater, it was like a gamble, and finding the way ahead was like gambling.
Sometimes, it's important to be lucky or not.
Otherwise, how could so many erroneous things happen!
As the so-called intentional planting of flowers, flowers do not sprout, unintentionally planted willows and willows into the shade!
The two of them continued to walk in the cave passage.
As he went, the boy occasionally stopped and stood by the stone wall he passed along the way.
He stretched out his hand and crossed the stone wall, and whispered to the people behind him with subtle eyes: "When you came back here, you saw the same scene as now?" ”
Uncle Fu was slightly stunned, looked at the young man and thought for a moment before responding: "The road traveled seems to have not changed much, but this road may have to go for a long time." ”
The young man looked at him, his lips moved, and he was speechless for a while, but his face became very ugly after hearing the words.
What does this man mean by what he said?
It's going to be a long time, how far does that have to go?
The boy knew that there was some inside story, and he might not be willing to say it, after all, from the beginning of meeting this person to the present, they have never looked at each other pleasantly.
The atmosphere between the two people was earlier neutralized because of Xiaoling, like a mediator in the middle.
The boy thought about making a move several times, either tying up the decrepit uncle or throwing him in a trap.
He didn't mean to hide his thoughts, but Xiaoling stopped them in time.
Therefore, with these previous feelings, other people may not be willing to make friends.
The young man understands this truth, but as long as he thinks about it, Xiaoling may still be in a dangerous situation now, and his mood can't be relaxed!
He clenched his fist and released it, repeating it several times, and everyone could see that the young man was trying to suppress the anger in his heart.
He softened his tone as much as he could to the person standing in front of him, "You'd better think about it a little more, especially if there are any traps or something like that." ”
"Master Da, I don't want to get into danger either, I will definitely avoid what I know."
When the uncle spoke, his eyes were complicated, and his expression fell in the eyes of the tsundere boy, and he felt that he was a little insincere.
He didn't care too much, stared at Uncle Yuan, stared at him and said, "When you do it, is the strength heavy?" ”
The latter looked at him in surprise for a moment, and then realized the meaning of the young man's words.
The boy was still concerned about Xiaoling on the sand, after he left.
The uncle said in his heart that this would actually become the weakness of the teenager, and it didn't seem to be so obvious before!
It was they who experienced the underwater scene, and after they almost died and went ashore again, they felt more and more the hidden emotions of the teenager.
The uncle paused for a moment before replying, "I know how to measure. ”
"I hope that this kid Xiaolin will not come to the adventure, I hope he will leave, and I don't really want to hurt him!"
The boy pursed his lips and turned his head, no more words, and continued to walk forward.
Behind him, Uncle Decay's eyes never left his back.
Someone like him, who is good at seizing opportunities and knowing more information early, may change the way he did it in the first place.
A thought crossed his mind
The boy walked some distance and spoke again: "I have come here from the south of Zealand. ”
The uncle who followed him behind him was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't understand how this person could come up with such a sentence.
The young man's voice echoed in the cave, and he turned his head to look at the uncle and said, "At that time, we had experienced many such scenes in the south of Xilan. ”
"It's certainly not the first time I've walked through the cave."
The young man paused, and then said, "You came out of the alien camp, and the little means you played were not enough. ”
The people behind them were silent, and the only sound in the passage was the footsteps of them and the voice of the young man alone.
"What I told you has always been valid," the young man paused, and said in a firm tone, "I want to see Xiaoling safe and sound with my own eyes, and it's up to him to decide what to do!" ”
When the boy withdrew his gaze, the latter raised his head to look at the boy's back, his eyes focused on the boy's body, and he became more and more sure that in the eyes of this man, the child who remained in the sand did occupy a very important position.
Otherwise, I won't stress it to him again and again!
At first, he only wanted to keep the child away from the danger ahead, but he didn't think of using him as a condition for talking to the other party.
The uncle's eyes rolled, convincing himself to give up such thoughts, knowing that the previous punch still left a shadow in his heart.
If the boy wants to make a move regardless of it, I'm afraid
When he spoke, his tone was reassuring: "Young Master, believe me, I definitely don't mean to harm Xiaolin." ”
"I think if you have a good relationship, maybe when he wakes up, he will chase after him."
The boy paused abruptly, and turned his head to stare at him.
Uncle Decay coughed embarrassedly and said, "Really, if he is worried about you, when he wakes up on the sand, he may chase him to the Thorn Forest and enter the cave where we walked." ”
"There is an obstacle in the middle of the road," the young man said lightly, "he can see that there is water blocking it, and he can also hear the sound of the waterfall, so he should not rush into danger, just like you said." ”
"People know to stay away from risk." The boy lowered his voice.
His eyes looked into the distance of the cave passage, and he didn't know how long he had to go, but anyone could see the barrier of the road he had passed before.
Blocked by the water and blocked by stone walls, those who walk into the cave know that there is no way to go.
Do you really jump down?
He and the decrepit uncle were entangled, of course, he did not deny that the latter's idea was definitely not that simple, anyway, it was the path to be taken in the plan for him.
Several thoughts flashed in the young man's heart for a while, he suppressed his emotions for a while, looked at the uncle and asked, "What do you say Xiaoling will do?" ”
There was a hint of uncertainty in his tone, because of what came to mind?
Uncle Yuan looked at him and said, "It's possible that I'll be looking around for any other way to go." ”
"Yes?" The young man stopped and took a few steps back, stopped in front of him to block his view and asked, "Is there any other way to go in this area besides entering the cave?" ”
The uncle shook his head and said, "I don't know, but after thinking about it, it doesn't seem to be." ”
The young man immediately answered: "So, I still have to think of a way back, at least find the exit ahead first!" ”
"Xiaoling can't find the way, maybe he will go back to the sand and wait for me first, I have an agreement with him, he is a trustworthy person."
The uncle glanced at him and lowered his head to prevent him from noticing his eyes.
In his opinion, the boy is thinking too much, how can anyone wait stupidly in the same place.
Even if he waits, if he doesn't come back after dark, won't he change places, and he will definitely take the road he suggested in the end and go directly to the official road.
The uncle thought very firmly, thinking that the young man's thoughts would be very different from the facts.
The boy was silent for a few seconds, then looked at him with sarcasm on the corner of his mouth, "Do you think I want to fork?" ”
"No, it's hard to say," Uncle Decay couldn't say too much, the character of the person in front of him was indescribably twisted, and he was very stubborn, and the only person who could persuade him at the moment was not there.
You have to be careful not to provoke him.
"You know him better than I do, young master, maybe he will continue to wait."
The uncle said an ambiguous word, glanced at the boy, and then looked away.
The young man lowered his head, his long eyelashes flashed, and said, "That's the case, Xiaoling will wait!" ”
His tone sounded a little strange when he spoke, as if he was convincing himself, and there was a hint of melancholy in his words.
"But what if he does chase after him?"
The boy muttered as if talking to himself, "That guy, sometimes people can't guess his mind, I don't know what he's going to do next?!" ”
He just said this to Uncle Decline, if the person he talked about was here, he would definitely be crazy.
Because what comes out of the boy's mouth isn't the other party's impression of him?!
"What if Xiaoling really jumps into the water to check?"
The boy then added in a low voice.
His eyes were a little dazed.
Uncle Decay took over the conversation naturally: "That's dangerous!" ”
"Young Master, to be honest, you and I have experienced the torrents and undercurrents in the water, the water flow of the waterfall rushing down!"
Uncle Fu said several words in one breath: "He is small, so easy to be knocked out by me, he won't know too much about kung fu!" ”
"It's a bit dangerous, maybe" The uncle suddenly had an epiphany, and the boy was staring at him!
That look was terrifying!
Uncle Decay complained in his heart, and hurriedly said: "Not necessarily, young master, Xiaolin's child is kind-hearted, and sometimes God favors him." ”
"You think, when I came here, I almost died, aren't I still here?"
"I don't think he's going to take the risk of jumping, it's more likely that he'll find his way around."
The uncle's tone was firm and authentic.
The boy looked away and looked into the distance again, the night pearl he held in his hand was now serving as a lighting task, and the torch he carried with him had long been thrown on the water's edge.
"Xiaoling," he called in a low voice.
"Eldest young master, if you want to find an exit, you still have to keep going," Uncle Wan urged him, "stopping here will delay time." ”
The boy pulled out the long dagger and made a few random streaks on the stone wall, which looked like strange marks or patterns.
"Are you going to leave a signal?" Uncle Fu stared at the pattern on the stone wall, and asked in an uncertain tone.
"When I'm doing tasks in the south of Sealand, I often use this when I contact the people below," the young man said, "Xiaoling doesn't know, I'm just"
Just what? The boy still didn't finish.
He turned and walked on, striding forward, and for a long time, he didn't say a word!
Even so, even those who followed him could feel the surging emotions that the boy had forcibly suppressed! (To be continued.) )
