Enclosed space
"The direction of the flow of water is in that well." Anin writes that she judged the direction of the water based on the direction of the sediment scraped off by the iron maids.
The three of them jumped into the well one after another, the water was really turbulent, Wu Xie felt like the world was spinning, and he only knew that he should protect his head with his hands. Suddenly there was a violent impact, and I didn't know what I hit, so I stopped.
He touched it with his hand and found that it was an iron fence, and there was a flashlight lit up next to it, it was A-Ning's flashlight, and he saw that the faint light was like a life-saving straw in the endless darkness, and he wanted to hold on to it tightly.
There doesn't seem to be any access around, it's all a sturdy rock wall, it's a dead end. They tried to find out if there was a way, the stone walls were still very smooth, and the current was very fast, so it was almost difficult for them to move.
The three of them had already determined that this was a dead end, and they all felt that they shouldn't be, because the information they gave them shouldn't be wrong, and suddenly the fear of death in their hearts spontaneously appeared.
Mengli watched the value of oxygen in the oxygen meter slowly decrease, and then looked at Wu Xie and A Ning, they also seemed to be desperate, just waiting for the rhythm of death.
At this moment of life and death, in addition to fear, there will be many reluctances and regrets in this world.
A-Ning has long put her life aside since she followed Jude Kao, but at this time she felt reluctant in the face of death, maybe she met Wu Xie and them, she suddenly smiled, it was from the heart, her life, at least for herself.
And Wu Xie's heart is full of fear at this time, to be honest, who is not afraid of death. After he died, he would never see his relatives and friends again, he would never know the truth of all this, and he would never have the opportunity to say what was in his heart again. But at the very least, he could hold her hand one last time.
Compared with the two, Mengli is quite calm, she looks at the value of the oxygen meter, it should only last for a minute, but even if she is so calm, she is still panicked in her heart - she is also a human being, and she will be afraid in the face of death, she is just forced to grow.
Mengli looked back at the oxygen meter, it was already showing "0", and then she felt that she had that suffocating feeling, are you going to die? Can't wake up again? No! No! I still have a lot to do, I haven't ...... yet
At the moment when she was unconscious, she felt someone hold her hand tightly.
There seemed to be something in his throat, and he couldn't get up in one breath, and then his chest was pressed by something, and he slowly opened his eyes, and in front of him was a person's enlarged face.
Mengli's mind was blank, and the person in front of her was lip to lip to her, and she couldn't react at all.
The man saw her wake up, slowly lifted up, and seemed relieved.
Mengli was stunned for a while before she realized who the person in front of her was, he was the little brother who jumped into the lake and disappeared, and they were looking for it!
"Little brother, you-" Mengli stared at him with wide eyes, a little speechless, or didn't know what to say, and the kiss just now ......
Mengli surged with countless emotions at this moment, the doubts and happiness that she was able to escape from death, and the peace of mind of seeing the little brother who was safe and sound after the disappearance.
"What about Wu Xie and A-Ning?" Meng Li asked after slowing down.
"There." The little brother looked to the side and said.
Mengli followed his line of sight and saw Wu Xie and A Ning lying next to him, and the fat man squatted next to Wu Xie to do first aid, pressing his chest and doing artificial respiration.
Mengli suddenly remembered that the little brother had artificial respiration for her just now, her expression was casual, but her heartbeat was accelerating. She watched as the little brother walked over to help, his hand quietly touching her lips, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, but in the blink of an eye, she returned to her usual arc.
She got up and walked over with a somewhat vague step.
The little brother was pressing A-Ning's chest, and A-Ning spit out a few mouthfuls of water and slowly woke up. But Wu Xie didn't know if it was more serious, and he was still unconscious after being rescued for a long time.
"I've done my best this time, and when I wake up, I'll see his creation." The fat man sat down on the ground, sighed, and said.
"You say that as if the doctor had declared a vegetative state. Maybe in the next second, Wu Xie will wake up. Mengli said.
"Ahem...... Wu Xie coughed up a few mouthfuls of water, and finally woke up.
"I'll go! Girl, have you opened your mouth?! The fat man said with a look of disbelief.
Meng Li smiled silently, and saw a small bonfire lit in the distance, illuminating the surroundings.
It was a flat cave carved out, about thirty square meters, with the roof about the height of a man, and the water seeped everywhere, like rain, and the ground was wet. On the other side there is a half-man-tall but narrow hole that leads to no one.
"Why didn't I die?" Wu Xie's first sentence was this.
"You'll have to ask King Yama about that." The fat man replied, "Is it thanks to my correspondent that you are here?" ”
Sure enough, the flashlight hanging from the fish was the message he and his brother had sent to them.
"Where have you all been these days, and I'm worried about what happened to you. But how did you save us in that environment? Wu Xie asked.
"We saved you? Didn't you come by yourselves? The fat man's face was heavy and he asked.
Wu Xie entered the ancient village of the three of them, and then saw the flashlight that the fat man sent to them, and followed the siphon tide to a dead end, and the oxygen was gone, they thought they would die there, but they didn't expect to wake up and see them.
The fat man showed a very strange expression after hearing this, and looked back at the little brother, who was sitting on the stone behind him, and his face was also very solemn.
Wu Xie looked at their expressions and asked strangely, "What's wrong?" Is there something wrong? ”
The fat man shook his head slowly and said, "How did you get here, you really don't know at all?" ”
"Is there something wrong? Tell us what happened to you? Why did you untie the rope and run away by yourself without saying a word? Aning asked.
"How is that possible? How could I do this kind of suicidal behavior? It's not that it's too long. The fat man suddenly became very serious, and said to them: "You appeared here suddenly, as for who saved you, I don't think it should be a 'person'." Come and show me, and you'll know what's going on. ”
They appeared here out of nowhere, and it wasn't the people who saved them? They were bewildered, so they followed the fat man, and he took up his torch and took it around, and the hole led to another hole, which was drier. This hole is all traces of artificial excavation, and nothing else.
In the other cave, there was a cave, at least twice as large as the one I had stayed in, and it was full of things, all rusty tools, wooden shelves and back baskets, and piles of green bricks, and a lot of stone-grinding things on the side. In the corners of the cave lay several shelves up to the top of the cave, on which lay the kind of iron figurines that could be seen in the water.
The roof and walls of the cave are covered with dark green stripes, and in the middle of the cave, there is an upside-down jar with a statue of a god on it, and a few incense burners in front of it, which is very simple.
"Here...... What the hell is the place? Wu Xie looked at everything in this cave and asked.
"We guess if this should be a mine pit or a very good jade vein." The fat man said, "But that's not what I want to tell you. ”
"Here...... No exports? A-Ning noticed the problem first, and suddenly his face changed greatly, and he looked at the fat man, wanting to seek the right answer.
At this time, Wu Xie finally found that just now they went around in a circle, all the cave walls were whole rocks, and then looked at the top of the cave, it was still the same result, and not even a single gap could be found.
"It's smart, yes, there's no exit here, it's up and down inside and out, we've looked for every inch of it, and we've made sure it's a completely enclosed space." The fat man nodded and said.
"What the hell is going on?" Wu Xie was stunned for a moment, looked at the little brother, this little brother who would have a sense of security by his side would have a way to solve any problems he encountered, and asked, "Then how did we get in?" ”
The little brother behaved differently than before, a little weird, he didn't move much, leaned in the corner, turned his head to look at Wu Xie, and said lightly: "I don't have an impression, but I know that things have just begun." ”
