Chapter 0182: Light of Hope
A spark of hope burst forth.
A bold idea was also born in Ling Xiao's heart.
Huang Shuya slept for more than ten hours. When she woke up, she was much better. She got out of bed, turned on one of her phone's lighting apps, and walked out of the bedroom through the bright light. She saw Ling Xiao sleeping on the sofa. The guy was covered in mud and dirty.
"What did this guy do?" Huang Shuya said suspiciously.
Ling Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, glanced at her, and then fell asleep again.
"I can stay so vigilant when I sleep, I really wonder if this guy is a doctor." Huang Shuya shook her head with a wry smile, and then walked towards the bathroom.
When she entered the bathroom, she pushed open the glass door, and was about to take off her pants to relieve herself, but she was stunned on the spot.
When you are in a hurry to get rid of it, but suddenly find that the toilet at home has been smashed, what will you feel like?
The gold-rimmed toilet in the toilet was smashed to pieces, and not only that, but a large hole was dug in the ground, and the toilet that was originally very clean and high-grade was piled with mud and concrete shards. It's no longer a toilet, it's a construction site. But Huang Shuya didn't know what Ling Xiao wanted to build, was it a bigger toilet? She looked at the messy toilet in a daze, and after half a sound, she suddenly rushed out of the bathroom and yelled at Ling Xiao, who was sleeping: "Doctor Ling, what are you doing?" You ruined the toilet, how can I relieve it! ”
"You let me rest for a while, I've been digging for more than ten hours, and I'm very tired." Ling Xiao muttered, a pair of eyes that seemed to be open.
"You spend more than ten hours destroying the only toilet? You—where are we going to get rid of it?" Damn it! Huang Shuya clamped her legs tightly when she spoke, suffocating her very uncomfortable. The more anxious she was, the more she didn't understand Ling Xiao's behavior, and the more angry she became.
"I've thought of it for you, there's a plastic basin in the bathroom, you can pee on it. If we run out of water, we can also drink urine. Don't waste it. Ling Xiao said.
"You're going to die!" Huang Shuya couldn't hold it anymore, turned around and went into the bathroom.
Soon, there was a boo sound in the bathroom. The sound of the plastic basin being hit by the flow of water is very special, and it is particularly loud in this enclosed and quiet space.
In the dark, Huang Shuya's delicate face was as ashamed as a monkey's ass, and she kept muttering in her heart, "He can't hear this voice, he can't hear this voice......"
Ling Xiao had only slept for two hours, and he had always maintained considerable vigilance. Although he concluded that Huang Bo's people would not open the blast door in the basement in the first few days, he also had to be on guard not to give the other party a chance.
When he woke up, he found that Huang Shuya was still sitting on the sofa in a daze. She held her knees in her hands, her chin rested on her knees, and she was quiet, not knowing what she was thinking.
Ling Xiao turned off the flashlight, and then gnawed off the unfinished apple. An apple in my stomach, my stomach still feels empty, and I am hungry. The feeling of hunger made him want to open the fridge and fill his stomach with an apple or other fruit. But he endured it, and the food was just a little, and if he didn't control the desire to eat, the little thing in the refrigerator would soon be gone. Then, the time after that will be even more difficult.
"Shuya, will your dad build a reserve room or something in this basement? This is his shelter, it should always function as a shelter, he should have food reserves, does it? Ling Xiao asked.
"Yes." Huang Shuya's voice.
"Where?" Ling Xiao suddenly became excited.
"There's a pantry behind the closet in the bedroom, but I just looked at it and there's nothing in it." Huang Shuya said.
Ling Xiao's joy suddenly disappeared again. Huang Bo prepared this trap early in the morning, will he leave food in the pantry? Apparently not. Huang Bo can leave a little fruit in the refrigerator, which is definitely not a conscience discovery, but wants Huang Shuya to live a little longer, so that he can have enough time to blackmail Huang Zhiqiang to make a will.
"You're hungry, aren't you? Then you can eat those fruits, I'm not hungry. Huang Shuya said.
"I'm not very hungry, save some food, but you, you haven't eaten anything until now, you should eat a little." Ling Xiao said.
Huang Shuya didn't move, "By the way, you destroyed the toilet and dug such a big pit, what do you want to do?" Dig up our graves? ”
"I'm going to dig a tunnel and get out." Ling Xiao said.
Huang Shuya was stunned for a moment, and then laughed nervously, "Are you trying to make me laugh?" You did it. Dig a tunnel to escape? Are you a fan of Prison Break? But that's a TV series, and it's absolutely impossible here! ”
Ling Xiao ignored her ridicule, "I think very clearly, your father built this shelter, and he buried the ventilation pipes and the drainage pipes of the bathtub in the ground. I figured out the terrain and we were supposed to be in the middle of the cliff near the back of the hillside, and if I dug down to the drainage and ventilation pipes, we might be able to dig a tunnel to the cliff to escape. ”
"Wait...... What did you just say, say it again? Huang Shuya obviously heard clearly, but she still wanted to listen to Ling Xiao again.
Ling Xiao smiled, he knew that he had aroused Huang Shuya's desire to survive. He repeated his thoughts and analysis in detail. Finally, he concluded: "Do you think, if I were the worker who built this shelter, I would have built the drainage and ventilation pipes separately? That's too cumbersome, and the easiest way to deal with it is to bury the pipes together and then share a pit. After all, it is very troublesome to make a tunnel in the middle of the mountain. So, although one ventilation duct is not enough for us to climb out, if we add another drainage pipe, the space will be much larger. ”
"But...... What if neither of the two pipes combined can hold our bodies? Huang Shuya voiced her concerns.
"Then let's dig it, and the space of one or two pipes will be the foundation, and if we widen it a little more, we will definitely be able to climb out of the hole." Ling Xiao said.
"I'll help you! Let's dig together! At this time, Huang Shuya could no longer control the excitement in her heart.
Ling Xiao stood up from the sofa and said with a smile: "I'll do this kind of hard work, you can help me do it." By the way, you can find out if there are any suitable metal tools in this room, as long as they can be used to dig tunnels, whatever it is. ”
"Okay, I'll look for it now." Huang Shuya followed and took action.
Ling Xiao looked at the alloy blast door, thinking of something, and then he pushed the TV cabinet behind the door to resist. Then, he took out the fruit from the refrigerator, pushed the refrigerator over, and also pressed it against the blast door. In this way, it will be very troublesome for Huang Bo's people to come in, if they want to break open the door, it will take a lot of strength, and he will be able to know the situation at the door of the road at the first time. He needs a safe space to dig tunnels, and it is necessary to do so.
After solving this problem, Ling Xiao suddenly felt much more relaxed. At the very least, he didn't need to be distracted by the doorway while he slept. He walked into the bathroom, lifted his foot, and kicked the fogged glass door of the toilet smashed.
"What are you doing?" Huang Shuya's voice came.
"I need more space, don't you have your own toilet?" Ling Xiao said with a smile.
"Whoa! Indecent. Huang Shuya's embarrassed voice came from outside.
Ling Xiao crouched next to the pit he had dug and continued to dig with a piece of metal. The floor of the toilet was originally a concrete structure, about a foot thick, but in the past ten hours or so, he had already smashed it alive with his fist. More than a hundred years of deep internal force, coupled with the cloth that wraps the fist, in that process, his fist is like a low-power hammering machine, very efficient.
Beneath the one-foot-thick mess of earth is a mountain structure of mud and rock.
Digging into the soil, the hope in Ling Xiao's heart is bigger and stronger. If the underground was also the structure of the wall, a meter of reinforced concrete and a 20-centimeter-thick steel plate, he would not have been able to dig a tunnel to escape. This seems to be luck, but it is actually a very normal thing. Who will be able to guard against an attack from underground? Moreover, it is a safe house located on a hillside.
Dirt and rocks were much easier to dig than to knock on the concrete, and Ling Xiao quickly dug up the ventilation ducts that were laid horizontally in the direction of the cliff. Not only ventilation pipes, but also drain pipes for bathtubs, sewage pipes for toilets. The three plastic pipes are 20-inch diameter plastic pipes, arranged in a zigzag shape in a pit. In other words, there is no need to do anything, there is a ready-made tunnel more than forty inches wide and forty inches high.
Of course, such a tunnel can't let him and Huang Shuya climb out, and there is still room for expansion. However, it doesn't seem like a huge undertaking.
Another advantage is that the pipes are straight, and the outside light shines in through the pipes, and there is suddenly more natural light in the dark basement, and the previous deep darkness is gone.
"Shuya! Shuya! Come over here and see what I've found! Ling Xiao, who was squatting in the mud puddle, said excitedly.
"I've found something too, I'll show it to you!" Huang Shuya was also very excited, and she strode over.
Ling Xiao looked up at her, but saw that she was holding two bottles of red wine in her hands. He was surprised, "This is what you found?" ”
"Do you know what kind of red wine this is? Romani? Kanti, the most expensive red wine in the world, usually costs about 1,500 dollars, but these two bottles are from 1950, which are even more precious and difficult to buy with money. Huang Shuya said proudly.
"What about the tools I asked you to find?"
"I still found it. Well, is it okay to drink coffee with a spoon? ”
Ling Xiao looked at her, wanting to speak and stopping.
"What do you want to say?"
"Can I say—you're going to die?" Ling Xiao said.
Shuya Huang, "......"
"Come and see what I've found." Ling Xiao got up from the pit and motioned for Huang Shuya to go down and have a look. As soon as he got up, the light shining through the three pipes intensified.
