There was silence, and I could even hear my own heartbeat. Even the fat man, who has always been bold, was stunned, and Wen Xianbao and Liu Rumei also stood in place.

"Waste, do you see anything?" The fat man still took the lead in breaking the silence, and he asked me a little subconsciously.

I shook my head vigorously, and it took me a while to come to my senses, and I had a very bad feeling in my heart. I thought it was time to remind everyone not to stay here anyway, so I cleared my throat and tried to calm myself, but my voice was a little shaky: "I don't know what it is, but I don't think it's better to stay here anymore." ”

"Hmm." The fat man rarely didn't raise the bar with me, but turned his head to Wen Xianbao and said: "Team Wen, the guy we can defend ourselves is this sapper shovel in my hand, if you really encounter any beast, it is really not easy to do." ”

The fat man's words were sincere, and Wen Xianbao naturally understood the power of this, he nodded and said, "Okay, we haven't gone far, let's go back now, bring all the equipment and come in again." ”

So far, I can only go back first and make plans later. Thinking of this, I looked left and right, and suddenly felt a little dazed, and asked timidly, "Where did we just come from?" ”

After listening to my inquiry, the fat man and Wen Xianbao also looked at both sides and did not speak for a long time. The startled and frightened people here just now made people completely divert their attention, looking at the strangeness on the cave wall, and even in a trance of which way they entered and exited.

Just when the three of us were at a loss, Liu Rumei on the side suddenly said, "Let's turn off the flashlight first." ”

"Turn off the flashlight?" The three big men asked almost in unison, wondering what the girl was going to do.

Liu Rumei then explained, "When I came in, I made marks along the way with a highlighter. ”

On the way here, I saw that Liu Rumei would touch the cave wall from time to time, but I didn't expect that this girl was drawing marks. In this way, she surprised me a lot, I didn't expect this girl to be so careful.

"Oh, that's it, then turn it off." Wen Xianbao said and took the lead in turning off the strong flashlight in his hand, and then Liu Rumei and the fat man also turned off the strong light flashlight in their respective hands.

The cave immediately went dark, and all four of us stood still, listening to each other's breathing, trying to adjust to the boundless darkness. The human eye has a natural thirst for light, and even the slightest light becomes incomparably vivid in the oppressive darkness, and a small fluorescent arrow on the cave wall appears in our field of vision.

"Here'......"

"Hmm."

"The arrow points to the right."

"I'm drawing the direction we're just heading in."

"There's an arrow over here, still pointing to the right."

"Then let's go left."

"It's still Koyanagi reliable, unlike some people."

“……”

After deciding on the direction, we turned on the flashlight again, squinted in the direction we were heading, and then cautiously began to walk back. After walking a short distance, Liu Rumei asked everyone to turn off the lights again, confirmed the direction of progress, and then nodded reassuringly. The fat man once again gave her a thumbs up and praised her for being serious and careful, and at the same time did not forget to despise me again for being unreliable. I was immune to his contempt, and just slapped him the back, urging him to hurry up.

The cave is getting narrower and narrower, and it seems that it is not far from the crack that came in. We all couldn't help but quicken our pace, facing unknown dangers, and none of us wanted to stay in this place for a little longer.

"Take a turn ahead and you should be out." The fat man said with a hint of pain on his face, and the experience of squeezing into the gap when he came in was obviously not as easy as he said.

"It's to the crack in the entrance." Wen Xianbao said as he hurriedly took two steps and walked to the front. He stood at the corner, held a flashlight and shone it around, and then the next words surprised everyone present, he said: "Is it a mistake, there is no road here." ”

The fat man was stunned at first, and then walked towards Wen Xianbao with a smile, and he said as he walked: "Team Wen, let's not be funny, can we still go wrong on this road?" ”

Listening to what the fat man said, I also think it makes sense, when we come in, we are afraid of taking a fork in the road, so we pay special attention to the situation in the cave, and it is indeed as the fat man said, although it is tortuous, but it is definitely just a road.

Wen Xianbao's location was not spacious, and he saw that the fat man was going to come forward to check, so he simply retreated back with the fat man. He didn't speak, just stood in place with his eyebrows, just staring at the fat man with his eyes.

The fat man walked to the bend in front of him, and also held a flashlight to shine back and forth, and then his face became solemn. He groped back and forth on the cave wall with his hands for a long time before finally speaking: "Did you make a mistake?" How is this a dead end. ”

"I'll see." Hearing the fat man say this, I was not calm, and I didn't wait for him to quit and squeezed over, next to the fat man, and looked around by the light. Sure enough, there was no crack in front of me at all, and I reached out and knocked on the wall of the cave, but I didn't find anything strange, could it be that I had unknowingly taken a fork in the road somewhere. Thinking of this, I suddenly remembered the marks drawn by Liu Rumei, so I hurriedly asked, "Xiaoliu, have you made marks along the way?" ”

Liu Rumei nodded yes, she also looked at me and the fat man with some puzzlement, and asked, "Is it really wrong?" ”

I shook my head and said, "Turn off the lights, and we'll slowly touch back, and we'll find the right way when we see the mark you draw." ”

What I'm talking about is definitely no way, such a tortuous cave, and only the fluorescent arrows left by Liu Rumei can point out the right way. We just turned on the lights, just got our bearings on the way, and then we just walked back down the road, maybe a fork in the road somewhere.

The fat man took the lead in turning off the lights, and then Liu Rumei and Wen Xianbao also turned off the lights, obviously they also agreed with my approach. Everything goes dark, and the eyes slowly adjust after a moment. Suddenly, the fat man next to me spoke, "Xiaoyanagi, did you draw two arrows at the turn?" ”

In the dark, Liu Rumei replied, "Yes." ”

"One before and one after, two, right?" The fat man then asked, his tone suspicious.

"yes." Liu Rumei replied, her tone a little surprised.

"Waste, come and see, if I'm dazzled." The fat man said, touching me huddled behind him, and leaning aside again. I could already see two small fluorescent arrows in the dark. Before I could speak, Liu Rumei had already cried out in surprise: "Oh, this ...... This is what I painted, because I was afraid that the fluorescent marker would not work well, so I tried it in the dark, and you can see that there is a ...... drawn under the arrow."

Hearing Liu Rumei say this, I hurriedly looked under the arrow, and there was a very random fluorescent line about two feet under the arrow.

"Smack!" The bright flashlight was suddenly turned on, and through the dazzling light, I saw Liu Rumei eagerly squeezing towards me and the fat man. "Smack, smack." The bright flashlight in the hands of the fat man and Wen Xianbao was also turned on, and the cave was completely illuminated again.

The four of us looked carefully at the wall at the end of the cave, and the fat man even used the sapper shovel in his hand to chisel into the cave wall. "Choke! Choking ......" A string of metal chisels resounded through the cave, and I stepped forward and pressed his hand, signaling him to stop chiseling. When the fat man stopped, I took a closer look at where we were again, and still found nothing.

"Choke!" The fat man threw the sapper shovel to the side, then sat on the ground with his butt, groped in his pocket for a long time, and finally found half a box of cigarettes, took out one and lit it for himself, took a deep puff, and then took another breath, and then said to me: "Waste, how can you say that this good outlet is gone, is this stone alive?" ”

"Don't think about it." I patted the fat man and said, "The stone is alive, it must be something we have left out." ”

"I've chiseled every inch of this, what else can I miss?" The fat man said that he was going to copy the sapper shovel again, and I hurriedly intervened again to stop it. I know that in this situation, everyone is under a lot of mental pressure, and the more anxious they are, the worse it is, and if you want to find a way out, you must first calm down and then think. However, this time the matter is obviously beyond the scope of our cognition, I really don't know how to comfort them, just when I was at a loss, Wen Xianbao, who had not spoken much, broke the silence, he said: "The situation we are encountering now, like a ghost in folklore hitting the wall, maybe the exit is in front of us, but I can't see it or touch it, so it's useless to be anxious here, according to my will, we have to act, walk back and forth, and see if we can find a way out......"

Wen Xianbao's tone is still neither humble nor arrogant, and the method he proposes may not be able to solve the confusion in front of him, but there is no better way at the moment, so he can only give it a try.

The fat man took a big gulp of his cigarette, frowning and didn't know what to think again, I was afraid that he would not agree with Wen Xianbao's approach, so he simply took the lead in expressing support, so he said: "I understand the meaning of the Wen team, as the saying goes, people move living trees and move death, although it is not appropriate to put it here, but there is also a reason, it is really not a good way to wait here." ”

The fat man was puffing smoke, still not speaking, staring at the cave wall and not knowing what he was thinking.

"It's windy." Liu Rumei's voice broke the silence again, but her two words made the three big men present confused, and even wondered if they had heard it wrong.

The fat man couldn't help but ask, "Xiaoyanagi, what did you just say?" ”

"It's windy." Liu Rumei repeated again, and gently raised his hand to point to the air.

I looked in the direction of her finger, and in the light and shadow of the bright flashlight, the smoke from the fat man's spit was swirling, and when it reached a certain place, it suddenly rolled and drifted away. The fat man and Wen Xianbao also seemed to understand, and both of them craned their necks to look at the smoke above their heads. This smoke is really a bit strange, it is only permeated around us, and it only suddenly rolls and floats away when it floats to the top of Liu Ru's eyebrows. The location of me and the fat man is not well ventilated, in other words, the entrance in this memory is definitely a dead end, so the entrance is not here, but after thinking about it, how to explain the fluorescent arrows on the wall.
