Chapter 091: Underground Cave
It was as if a fog had covered the line of sight, and then the fog became thicker and thicker, and finally it was impossible to see even the light, and it fell into a cloud of darkness.
Lytton struggled a few times, like a frog boiled in warm water, and after kicking his legs, he was powerless to struggle again.
Gradually, his body could only move with the current. Just when he was about to lose consciousness, he rose from the dantian and breathed his heart to help each other, and he didn't know that he had entered a state of suspended animation. Just like a frog, it has no heartbeat, and its body temperature changes with the temperature outside.
Of course, it is impossible for him to be like a frog, to be able to fake his death for several years or even longer, a few hours, which is already the limit.
By the time he woke up again, he was already on a rocky beach, half of his body submerged in the water, seemingly floating, but with his back to the bottom of the beach.
Then he woke up from the cold.
The groundwater is inherently cold, but of course it can feel warm in winter. But I can't stand soaking in a bath. Trembling to think about it, his lips were purple, and his face seemed to be in the midst of a serious illness, and he himself felt a sense of powerlessness that his life was imminent. The line of sight is gradually clear, is there light?
Lytton looked up and saw that the huge cave was like a huge chimney, with smooth walls but extending all the way, and at the top, there was a hexagonal opening, like a skylight hanging high overhead, which if it had been formed naturally, and Lytton would not have believed it. also gave him an extra judgment, he should still be in the ruins, but he didn't know where it was. Standing at the bottom of the cave is as powerless as a frog at the bottom of a well looking at the sky. Immediately, he thought of his companion.
Sweeping his gaze across the shallows, Lytton saw the first man, Wu.
He hurriedly ran over, knelt beside Wu and called, "Wu, wake up!" ”
Slapping Wu on the cheek, no response. He then alertly probed the edge of Wu's neck, and a faint pulse signaled that Wu was still alive. Only then did he realize that the corners of Wu's mouth had been bubbling with water. Lytton recalls the steps to resuscitate a drowning person for a moment...... Damn, there isn't. Well, he's not a professional lifeguard, and who has nothing to do to understand the methods of rescuing drowning people?
However, seeing Wu's bulging belly, Lytton gritted his teeth and stepped on it. It wasn't that he had a grudge against Wu, and it wasn't that he felt burdensome with his hands, but he found that time was pressing, and he looked at another person on the river beach. Looking at the body type, it is not Li Zao, it should also be a warrior of the Manniu tribe who followed him into the water.
Wu's mouth splashed out like a fountain under the pressure, and he stepped on it a few times, and his stomach went down a lot, until Wu let out a faint moan, and Lytton decisively gave up the action of rescuing Wu. In his opinion, Wu has come back to life, how strong the vitality of the Manniu tribe is, he has seen it, as long as Wu can be conscious, he will not die.
And Lytton was in a hurry to rescue another subordinate.
Aoki.
Thunder Tiger.
……
What about Li Zao?
It's gone.
Li Ton shouted in a hurry: "Li Zao! ”
He searched the edge of the shallows, but the familiar chubby ball was nowhere to be seen. In desperation, Litton went into the water to look for it, but was stopped by the sober witch: "Don't look for it." ”
"Why? Just because he doesn't have a presence in the tribe at all? ”
Litton turned his head and stared angrily at Wu, his indifference to Wu, and even his habitual indifference to the brute, had reached the point where it was still unbearable. At this moment, he vented all his dissatisfaction.
Wu was still very weak, and his tone was intermittent, after all, he had just been pulled back from the Hades Palace, as for whether there was a Hades Palace in the wilderness, anyway, Liton didn't know, he hadn't died in this world, where did he dare to judge what the world after death would be? Wu propped himself up, leaned against a stone on the edge of the shallows, and said weakly, "He...... went up. ”
"Up, where?" Li Dun muttered to himself, but couldn't help but look up at the cliff on the edge of the cave, he estimated that it was hundreds of meters, Li Zao had this ability, could the brute still tolerate him? He felt that his IQ was bullied by Wu, and it was clear that Wu was the result of a tragedy with a lie. This is what he can't tolerate, a human life!
You can't be so inexplicable, right?
"Stinky boy, I mean him...... Floated up, and before I entered the whirlpool, I found that he couldn't hold his breath...... Kicking off the stone in his hand, he ...... Floated to the surface of the river. ”
Wu said angrily, and then coughed violently, and the river water gushed out of his stomach everywhere in his nose and mouth.
Compared with Wu, Lei Hu and Aoki are even more unbearable. Their eyes stared blankly at the light above their heads, cold and cold, but they didn't care. I heard Lei Hu muttering to himself stupidly: "Lao Tzu is dead? Why did he die? Odd...... It doesn't hurt to die at all, but why is my stomach so bloated? ”
"Fuck off, you're dead, you're stupid."
Aoki, who was lying on the edge of the thunder tiger, was even more unbearable, and he didn't have the strength to support his body. While talking, he coughs slightly, and with each cough, he brings out a large mouthful of water that runs down his mouth. But he didn't mean to stop, and continued: "It was the leader who saved us, but it seems that Li Zao is gone. ”
Lei Hu doesn't care about people who are weak compared to him, habitual forgetting is his daily routine, and of course it is not a good thing for him to think of it, which shows that he wants to find a sense of existence in the weak. Worried about Aoki, Lei Hu showed a very confused look: "Li Zao? Did he go into the water? ”
Aoki was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes, he secretly swore in his heart that he would never talk to Lei Hu in this life, even if it was a word!
A few people slowed down for a while, and Lytton also found some dry firewood during this period, apparently there was a passage between the cave and the outside world, but they still didn't know the location.
Of course, if it were underwater, Lytton would have given up looking for this exit.
I finally lit the firewood pile, and finally felt the warmth of the flame. Several men baked their soaked coats, and they had to be very careful, for their clothes were made of the fur of wild beasts, and they were real coats of animal skin. In the era in which Lytton lived, it was definitely a tall piece of equipment. But in the wilderness, this kind of clothing is standard, and once it is soaked, it is very troublesome to dry, and the clothes cannot be too close to the flames, too close, and the fur of the beast touches a little spark, and it is a large piece of fire.
Carefully keeping his distance from the fire, and drying his clothes, Lytton began to think about the way forward. It's easy to get in, but it's probably not easy to get out, he can't just cover his head and go all the way to the dark.
Suddenly, Lei Ju grunted and said aggrievedly: "Chief, I'm hungry!" ”
