We groped our way on, and the so-called front was probably directly in front of our landing site.

Because when people are lost, they will always subconsciously move forward, the so-called road is ahead, and only by moving forward can there be hope.

Now the compass doesn't show us the way, but it can help us correct the direction.

Xiao Liu and I chatted as we walked, and I said casually: "Do you think we will end up being fodder here?" ”

Xiao Liu said disapprerovingly: "Life may not be stable, although life is short, but no one can live peacefully all their lives, whether it is a high-ranking official or a common person, there will be a day when they become fodder." ”

The kid would occasionally write a sentence or two, and I smiled and shook my head, and then stopped talking.

But these two sentences seem to me to have a special charm today, those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black, maybe I have also been affected by some influence in these days with Xiao Liu.

But at the time, I didn't feel like I would make it out alive, so I was in a more negative mood.

The light of the flashlight flickered, and with each light we moved forward a little, and my wet clothes had already been dried by the body heat.

Although it is a little cold here, it only adds a little trouble to us in a desperate situation.

Before finding a way out, should you starve to death here, or freeze to death? Maybe both of these flashlights will last longer than we do.

I never expected miracles to happen, not because I didn't think about them that way, but because my subjective consciousness told me not to believe in miracles.

But until then, is the collapse of the cave also a miracle? If I don't think so, I'm just pushing myself into another desperate situation.

The hunger in my stomach came back, and I couldn't control it.

Xiao Liu smiled awkwardly at me, because I also heard his stomach growling.

"We're not going to drink pee later, are we?"

"Are you peeing out?"

"Is there cotton or anything like that on your body, or a belt, so you can fill your hunger first."

“......”

Jokes can only temporarily divert the subconscious, and cannot solve the actual problem.

After walking for a while, the feeling of weakness in my body increased a lot, and the hunger pangs took the opportunity to start affecting my thinking again, causing me to start thinking about those mushrooms.

I stopped Xiao Liu beside me and asked, "Do you think these mushrooms are edible?" ”

Xiao Liu said that he had also thought about this problem, just from the appearance, it didn't seem like those colorful poisonous mushrooms, but if he really ate it in his mouth, he was not sure.

But when I think of this, the sour water in my mouth can't stop gushing up, which only happens when I was a child.

I looked at the mushrooms and wondered, should I take the risk or not?

Xiao Liu said that it was not yet time, and if it was really not far from starvation, let's try it again.

As he spoke, Xiao Liu suddenly seemed to think of something, he stayed where he was and said, "By the way, I seem to have had a similar experience, but I can't remember when." ”

I couldn't help but scold, "You're fucking hungry, aren't you?" When did you go so far without eating or drinking for two days? ”

But the look on Xiao Liu's face didn't look like a joke, he continued: "There really is, I remember someone taught me a trick at that time, saying that the ancients also used this method, that is, find something to hold in the mouth, which can reduce hunger and promote saliva secretion." ”

When he said this, I seem to have heard similar remarks, which are somewhat similar to the allusion of Wangmei quenching her thirst.

Once a foreign substance enters the mouth, the human brain center will perceive it as food, thus promoting saliva secretion, as if it also has the effect of suppressing coughs.

"And what are you looking for?" I asked.

"Buttons, the stones don't feel very clean here."

We both took a button off our chests, wiped it lightly, and put it in our mouths.

Although this method is not immediate, it at least gives us a sense of "work" psychologically.

We don't know how large this mushroom forest is, but it is said that the largest space in the strata can reach kilometers in kilometers.

If the mushroom forest in front of us is so huge, we can only blame it on bad luck.

The light trail of the flashlight was still mechanically sweeping, and the huge mushroom roots on both sides continued to become a thing of the past behind them.

However, in my numb gaze, I thought I suddenly noticed something different.

At the same time, Xiao Liu seemed to have noticed it, and hurriedly moved the light of the flashlight back slightly.

In front of us, there was a mushroom stalk that seemed to have been eroded in some way, as if it had been bitten by an insect, and it was very obvious that a piece was missing.

I glanced at Xiao Liu, and then quietly walked towards the mushroom.

On closer inspection, the two of us were convinced that it was a sign of some kind of creature's gnawing, but it didn't look like it was torn off with its teeth but with its claws.

Xiao Liu found a complete mushroom stem and tore off a piece with his hands, and the two traces were so similar to each other.

This shows that the traces in front of you are really artificial!

"Looks like someone has been here." Xiao Liu threw away the mushroom meat in his hand, looked at the traces carefully, and said thoughtfully: "And the traces were left not long ago." ”

"Do you think this mushroom can be eaten?" I started to think about the mushroom again.

Xiao Liu glanced at me and said, "How many fucking times have you asked?" I haven't seen anyone who eats this thing yet, and I don't know if there are any adverse reactions, so I can't be sure! ”

In fact, I also understand this truth, I just want to find someone to remind myself that there is no one else here, only Xiao Liu.

We continued to walk like this, but after a few steps, my heart began to feel furious, and I quickly pulled out my pistol.

Xiao Liu saw that I was behaving abnormally, and asked me what was wrong while looking around.

I explained that I had to pay some attention, and I wasn't sure if the other party was friend or foe.

But just as the words fell, I don't know where there was a "creaking, creaking" sound.

It was particularly harsh in this silent and uninhabited area, as if chewing on something.

Xiao Liu glanced at me, and the two of us immediately tacitly agreed.

It must be the sound of someone or something gnawing on a mushroom.

In this situation, the sound is still going on, and I don't know if it's right to turn on the light source.

The beam of the flashlight swept back and forth in the mushroom forest, and I don't know why, the thing that made the noise didn't seem to notice, otherwise how could it still be busy eating mushrooms?

After examining the next four weeks, we didn't find anything.

At this time, Xiao Liu asked: "Do you say that the other party is a human or a ghost?" ”

I said it doesn't matter if it's a fucking person or a fucking ghost, it's better for us to get closer.

However, just as the words fell, the light of the flashlight suddenly shone on a moving object, and since there was still some distance, I could only say that it was a black shadow for the time being.
