Chapter 15 Water Seepage (3)

An Xiaoyu wandered around the room for a long time, worried about Chi Mo and the situation of the base, and all kinds of pictures flashed in her mind one by one, and finally exhausted herself, sat on the bed, and stopped her tired body. But her mind is not under her own control in any way, and she is still living all kinds of imaginary scenes.

In the usual way, she prayed like the sand god that her ancestors had believed in for generations, almost humbly praying for the peace of Chi Mo, and even forgot what kind of situation she would face if the base was breached, just reciting the scriptures of the Eastern Wilderness for Chi Mo.

Slowly, this extreme eagerness and piety replaced panic and crankiness, An Xiaoyu closed her eyes, sat upright, folded her hands, and chanted the scriptures, echoing in the slightly cramped room.

But An Xiaoyu's piety obviously did not get the attention of the sand god, she suddenly felt a little cold, opened her eyes and saw that the scriptures in her mouth stopped abruptly, she slowly stood up, and did not even dare to move her steps. This girl, who was born and raised in the Eastern Desert, looked incredibly at the floor under her feet, where it was not even land, was constantly gushing out the most precious resource in the desert - water!

Water! Still thinking that she was in a dream, she bent down in disbelief, reached out and touched it, and a cool and supple feeling rippled down her fingertips to her body. She raised her hand, her fingers twisting, still in disbelief. It's really water!

In the desert... No! How can there be so much water in the base?

She suddenly thought of the undercurrent recorded in the textbook and the thick book, the undercurrent under the Eastern Desert Desert, could it be that the groundwater was gushing up? An Xiaoyu felt quite novel, squatted down, and reached out to play with the water.

This is the reaction that a girl who rarely sees water should have, and she reaches out her hand and begins to wave, enjoying the beautiful layers of water waves that swing with her hand. What a crystal treasure it was, like a miracle given by God, An Xiaoyu gradually became obsessed, and actually laughed.

Suddenly, she felt that the pants under her buttocks were suddenly wet, and she was startled, An Xiaoyu stood up suddenly, reached out and touched her back, it was really wet! When she looked down again, she found that the water on the ground had risen at some point, and the surface of the water was slowly rising at a speed invisible to the naked eye, seeping out of nowhere.

An Xiaoyu finally realized the crisis she was facing, and she immediately took some necessary things from the room and stuffed them into her bag. Should get out of here right away! She thought of the living quarters where she was located on the basement floor, and if the groundwater kept rising, this floor would definitely be flooded, and if she didn't get out quickly, she would soon be drowned.

At this time, the desire to survive with the instinct of the people of the Eastern Wilderness made her abandon her dependence on everything, and in the face of disasters that might threaten her, she made up her mind decisively, without even the slightest hesitation.

She put her backpack behind her, and the moment she opened the door, the water in the hallway, which was obviously higher than the room, poured in and hit her feet and trouser legs. An Xiaoyu bent down and pulled her trouser leg under her knees, dripping water out, and walked down the corridor to the hatch.

She held the silent door card in her hand, swiped open one door after another, and searched for the passage in the area according to her memory, although she had walked back and forth four times, although the passage in the base was not as intertwined as the underground mine, but it was still difficult to ensure that she could find it quickly after only a few walks.

Desperately recalling the road she had walked, An Xiaoyu walked through one hatch after another. She remembered where she had just walked, and when she realized that she had made a mistake, she immediately went back and started again, gradually approaching the passage of the region.

When she walked through a familiar corridor and saw the street sign suspended on the hatch in front of her that she remembered very well, An Xiaoyu was overjoyed, and finally she was about to arrive at the regional passage! She stepped forward and slashed open the hatch, and through the stairway, another hatch opened, and the route in her memory became clearer and clearer.

An Xiaoyu remembered that after passing through a hatch again, she could reach the large area passage, and then go directly to the ground. She quickened her pace and ran forward, clutching the white keycard tightly in her hand, as the water level in the hallway had risen to the base of her thighs, making it extremely difficult for her to move.

Finally ran to the hatch, An Xiaoyu stretched out her hand to swipe the card, but before her hand could reach the front of the recognizer, the hatch opened.

What the heck?

An Xiaoyu looked at the hatch in front of her, not knowing what was going on. Could it be that the hatch is broken because of the flood? She thought it was possible, but it was strange that it could still be used without a short circuit. She thought about it for a moment, and instantly woke up, now is not the time to pay attention to these, she should go out immediately!

She walked forward, but she heard a few "clangs" behind her, and when she turned her head, she saw the hatch behind her that she had just come over, which was still green before, but now it suddenly changed to a red light, and on the wall of the corridor, close to the ground, several pieces of the wall that were originally intact suddenly fell off. The sound she heard was the sound of the fence crashing against the floor.

What's going on here?

Before her thought could fully come out, a huge stream of water suddenly gushed out from the hole in the wall, fierce and surging than the beast of the sand sea, the water level in the corridor suddenly rose, and the water hit An Xiaoyu with a huge force stacked layer after layer, instantly knocking her down in the water, and rushing towards the central passage with the gushing of water.

With the sound of the air valve opening, several large hatches in the large passage opened instantly, and there was no elevator inside, but black pipes running up and down. An Xiaoyu was washed to the edge of the pipe, she wanted to grab something, but there was nothing in the simple design of the large area passage, and her body was light and fell into the pipe.

An Xiaoyu turned her back to the bottom, looking at the flying hair, the light that was gradually fading away, and the waterfall-like water rushed into the pipe, am I going to die? She thought. In her mind, she suddenly thought of An Xiaoan, Zhang Shujie, Ni Yu, and Chi Mo.

No! I can't die! Ann whispered to herself. A similar surging force struck from behind, and the water in the resource area was unrestrained, and finally gushed up from the largest central passage area, An Xiaoyu struggled, trying in vain to rely on his own struggle to hold on until he was washed to the ground by the current.

However, just as she was pushed by the current, getting closer and closer to the location where she fell, outside the hatch above, a bigger wave of water also fell, and the rising and falling water slammed together, almost squeezing out all the air in An Xiaoyu's lungs, and even squeezing out the blood all over her body.

A huge vortex appeared in the pipes of the central passage, An Xiaoyu struggled, reached out and grabbed upward, but it was still in vain, and she could only let her unrivaled power wrap herself and fall down.

Gradually, the light disappeared, the voice disappeared, An Xiaoyu drifted with the flow, feeling that the air in her lungs was getting more and more turbid, and her eyes were black for a while. She didn't give up, she was still looking for hope, at this moment she became extremely calm, gave up the useless struggle, moved with the current, and suddenly, she felt a strong downward current.

With a flash of inspiration in her mind, she thought of the mine tunnels that extended in all directions in the resource area.

There must be a mine that hasn't been completely flooded! She decided on this idea, and she did her best to find the strong current she had just felt, and followed it. She even saw the lights of the fixed-point security in the mine, and saw the oval-shaped water surface in the pothole in the distance, and the strength in her body gradually disappeared, and the vision in front of her was completely blurred.

An Xiaoyu stretched out her hand and grabbed something, her heart was relieved, and finally she couldn't hold on, she fainted.

"Hey! Wake up! Feed! Girl? ”

When An Xiaoyu felt that her soul had begun to detach from her body, the whole world resounded with such a voice, calling her mind back to her body, no longer staying in that empty and distant space, and she didn't know where she was.

Where am I? What's wrong with me? Who's calling? She thought.

Then she thought that she had followed the water to a mine, and before escaping from the water, she lost consciousness.

Am I saved? Probably the surviving miners in the mine...

The thought was intermittent, and An Xiaoyu repeated the same or different thoughts, circling over and over again. Finally, as if she had been pressed by something, she suddenly woke up, the first thing she felt was the hard breathing of her lungs, such breathing made her feel buried deep underground, feeling depressed, she breathed desperately, as the air entered, her body slowly regained consciousness, the hard ground, the wet clothes, the rolled up trouser legs.

With a little force, An Xiaoyu tried to open her eyes, with the experience of the sand sea centipede incident, she quickly adapted to the weakness of her body, opened her eyes, felt a burst of sourness, blinked twice, and saw the person who was shouting beside her.

This is a young man of not very tall stature, wearing the clothes of a miner, with short hair, and a slightly pale face caused by long-term work under the mines, but it can be clearly seen that the muscles on his neck and the angular lines of his body in the miner's suit.

"You're awake!" Chu Sui said in surprise.

After being swept away by the gushing water from the mine, Chu Sui was fortunate to be taken to a pit where the current could not continue to advance, he climbed ashore, took a few breaths, and after worrying about the lives of several of his companions, he began to wonder if he could or get out of the mine.

Every year, there are many people who go missing in the mines, and even the experienced miner can get lost in the mines, and by the time people find him, he has starved to death, and only a corpse remains. Due to the lack of water and bacteria in the desert, the interior of the corpse is slightly decomposed, and the gases produced by the decay are covered in dry and dehydrated muscles and skin, and will swell like a spinning cone.

Thinking of this, and soaking wet, Chu Sui shivered, and began to carefully search for his familiar traces, trying to find a feasible path before the water receded, and when the water level went down, he could return to the surface immediately.

Nine times out of ten, he searched for a long time, but did not find such a way, but when passing through another cave, he heard a faint sound of flowing in the calm water on the surface, he walked in and found that there was a person in the water gradually drifting closer.

Chu Sui was startled, and immediately jumped into the water, grabbed An Xiaoyu's hand before she lost consciousness, and rescued her out of the water.

When An Xiaoyu was pulled out of the water, Chu Sui almost thought that she was dead, and her whole face was blue and black, but fortunately, the lungs had not yet entered the water, although her breathing was a little weak, it was still normal, and An Xiaoyu's face was much better after a while.

Chu Sui, who had never learned first aid for drowning, began to use his brain, touched An Xiaoyu's carotid artery, and listened carefully to her snort, and concluded that she could still survive. When she was a child, he had heard people say that people who lost consciousness were actually very close to death, and at this time, someone needed to remind her not to go far.

So Chu Sui tore open his throat and screamed loudly beside An Xiaoyu, trying to use his deafening voice to wake up the girl in front of him who was so cute that his heart beat faster.

When he saw that his efforts had finally succeeded, the generous boy shouted happily, "You're awake!" Ha ha! You're awake! But he forgot to put away the volume that he had raised to call the soul.

An Xiaoyu was shouted by him, stretched out her hand and rubbed her ears, and hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, my ears are almost deaf." ”

"Ahh I'm sorry. Chu Sui was embarrassed for a moment and helped the person on the ground up.

An Xiaoyu looked around, looking confused.

"Where is this?"
