Chapter 161: Waterhole
Suddenly, a stalagmite fell and smashed straight on the raft, and the sharp tip of the stone instantly pierced the raft.
Ge Diyan secretly screamed that it was not good, she quickly covered the mouth pierced by the stalagmite and said, "Quick, get out of here." Then she took out an unknown piece of stuff and pasted it on, immediately stopping the leakage of the raft. Fortunately, the stalagmite was not large, and the opening was relatively small.
Sha Dutian said: "You take care of her mentally handicapped, and I will control the direction."
Ge Yiyan said: "I'll control the direction, this is for you."
Sha Dutian saw that it was an oar, he took it, the oar entered the water, he rowed it away, and the raft quickly drifted forward with his efforts.
I don't know how long it took, Ge Diyan pointed to the ground not far away and said, "That's it, let's lean over."
I saw that it was an open place before, and when the lights shone out, there seemed to be a big waterhole there, and there were no sharp stalagmites in the sky above here, and even the lizard just now was gone.
The surroundings were dark and quiet, the sound of running water echoed in the ears of several people, and even drops of water fell from the cave, making a dingdong sound.
Sha Dutian controlled the direction of the raft, and soon approached the shore, the shore was uneven and rocky, and after the raft stopped, Sha Dutian was the first to jump off the raft, and then he pulled the rope and fixed the rope to a stone.
Ge Yiyan and Zhao Ruozhi carried Lu Shuiyi together, and Sha Dutian assisted on the shore, and it took a lot of effort to drag Lu Shuiyi to the shore.
Zhao Ruozhi shivered, and it seemed that he was really frozen.
The ground here is not very slippery, Zhao Ruozhi cleaned up the rocks on the ground, and then put his backpack on the ground for Lu Shui to rest on it. He touched Lu Shuiyi's hand, it was very cold, just kidding, his own hand was already frozen to the point of losing consciousness, but he didn't expect Lu Shuiyi's hand to be even colder.
Zhao Ruozhi said anxiously: "Lao Sha, quick, solid fuel." Sha Dutian opened his backpack, took out solid fuel from his bag, and quickly lit it.
A flame lit up, and for the first time in this cold underground world, it lit up. The light of the fire was faint, but it brought some warmth to the place.
The light of the fire was very close to Lu Shuiyi's body, and Ge Diyan said: "Her clothes must be dried dry, otherwise even if she wakes up, she will be attacked by the cold, and even have a high fever." If Lu Shuiyi gets sick here, it will seriously delay the planned trip.
Zhao Ruozhi stood up and looked at Lu Shuiyi in a coma with concern, under the faint light, he saw that there was still a trace of pain between Lu Shuiyi's eyebrows, but it was obviously much better than just now, he remembered his attitude towards Ge Diyan just now, and felt very guilty in his heart, he said to Ge Diyan: "I'm really sorry just now, I..."
Ge Diyan smiled: "I don't blame you, it's that I didn't find out the situation here in advance, she is so happy." She smiled slightly, her face showing envy, and soon, this trace of emotion disappeared without a trace.
The mission of the family is above all else, Ge Diyan is 25 years old, but she has never been exposed to anything like feelings, she is much more mature than her peers and even older than her, with a sexy smile and tenderness, I don't know how many infatuated men have fallen.
But she couldn't, because she had a mission, and it was just when the Void was about to shatter.
Ge Yiyan looked at the time, half an hour had passed since Lu Shuiyi was bitten, according to the time, Lu Shuiyi would need at least an hour and a half to wake up, she said: "Let's rest here, you guys avoid it, I'll help her dry her clothes."
Zhao Ruozhi took out an army green coat from his backpack and handed it to Ge Yiyan. Ge Yanyan was slightly surprised: "I didn't expect you to still carry such clothes."
Zhao Ruozhi said: "After coming back from Qinling, I was afraid of entering the underground, this is an underground dark river, I think it must be very cold, so I brought one, I didn't expect it to be used."
Sha Dutian took Zhao Ruozhi's backpack and said, "Mentally retarded, you won't just bring a coat, right..."Zhao Ruozhi pulled Sha Dutian to the side and said, "Lao Sha, let's go there and have a look." Ge Diyan smiled slightly, squatted down, helped Lu Shuiyi up, and began to fade her already soaked clothes.
Zhao Ruozhi and Sha Dutian walked forward for a while, and when they were on the raft, they saw that there was a waterhole here, and Sha Dutian said, "This waterhole is not small." His words broke Zhao Ruozhi and Ge Yanyan's thoughts, both of them were originally dreaming of their own, his voice was already loud, plus this is the underground world, the slightest sound will be very loud, and his echoes echo all around, breaking the peace here.
The light shines on the pool, and the reflected light hits the wall, and the reflected light sways back and forth with the water in the pool, like an atomic nucleus that cannot stand it.
Zhao Ruozhi said: "Lao Sha, didn't you bring news to Shen Zhantian, what is their current situation?"
Sha Dutian bent down to pick up a stone, the stone he chose seemed to be easy to pick up, who knows, he didn't pick it up, the original stone was rigidly embedded in the ground, he kicked it hard with his foot, the stone suddenly rolled out, he proudly picked up the stone and said: "Who knows, I haven't seen them on the way, maybe they are still on the way." He casually threw the piece into the pool.
The stone, the size of a fist, splashed when it touched the surface of the water, and then disappeared, leaving only ripples on the surface of the lake, and bubbles from below the surface of the water from time to time.
Sha Dutian said in surprise: "This waterhole is not shallow, obedient."
At this time, I only heard Ge Diyan behind him say: "Only here can you land and rest in the entire tunnel, and if you go further, the river will flow into the wall, and there is no way out." Every time I get here, I rarely wonder, the map points here, but there is nothing here, this waterhole is really deep. ”
Zhao Ruozhi remembered the map that Ge Yiyan showed him, and he recalled the picture on the map and those few words, the years were like water, and they swirled with their strength.
In the earthly world, life is like a continuous reincarnation, even if it is a long life, for the universe, it is also a moment, ancient thinkers compared life to flowing water, the deceased is like a husband.
Life is like water, it never stops, even if it is blocked by a mountain, it will bypass the mountain and continue to flow towards the sea.
But what does this have to do with the waterholes here? Time is like water, is it like time is like people, and people are like this water? Even if it is like this water, what does it mean?
Zhao Ruozhi said to himself: "The years are like water, and the years are like water." Countless thoughts were generated, echoed, and disappeared in his mind, and he could never think of a single reason.
Sha Dutian patted him on the shoulder and said, "Mentally retarded, these years are like water, it is better to become water, so that you can understand life more thoroughly?" He was just jokingly saying such things to Zhao Ruozhi, and he squatted down and shook the waterhole with his hand.
Strangely, the water here doesn't seem to be very cold, much to the surprise of Shadoten.
When Zhao Ruozhi heard Sha Dutian's words, he suddenly felt a little realized, and he was pleasantly surprised: "Yes, yes, Lao Sha, we become water, I know, the meaning of this sentence is actually to let me jump into the water and become one with the water."
Understanding the meaning of this sentence, Zhao Ruozhi was extremely excited.
Ge Diyan said: "I also thought about whether it would be under the pool, but the water in the pool is extremely cold, I went down to see it before, and it was pitch black and there was nothing below."
Sha Dutian retorted: "This water is unusually cold? How do I feel that there is no water in the underground river that freezes people, am I feeling wrong? ”
At this time, Ge Yiyan had already changed Lu Shuiyi's clothes, and she took Lu Shuiyi's clothes and baked them, although there was not much solid fuel, but it was still enough to bake clothes. "What?" she asked. The last time she came, the water in the waterhole was close to freezing, how could it be that the water of the underground river was not cold?
The water of the underground river and the water of the waterhole are separated, and it seems that there is no offense between the two, and the waterhole is tens of meters away from the underground river, and it is all rocky here, unless the underground river is connected to the bottom of the waterhole.
Faintly, Sha Dutian saw a faint light from the waterhole, but it was inconspicuous against the backdrop of the wolf's tooth lamp, he turned off the wolf's tooth lamp and said to Zhao Ruozhi: "Mentally retarded, turn off your lamp."
Zhao Ruozhi turned off the wolf tooth lamp in confusion, and he miraculously found that there was a faint light at the bottom of the pool, and the light was very weak, even in a lightless hole, it was difficult to see if you didn't look carefully.
Suffice it to say that the light source at the bottom of the waterhole is a long way from here.
Ge Diyan asked in disbelief, "Is there a bright light?" What's going on? She has been here a few times, and every time she came, she didn't find any light, but after she came with Zhao Ruozhi, there was a light under the pool, and she thought: "Is there spirituality in the waterhole here?" Soon, she put a stop to such illogical thoughts.
Ge Diyan said, "If you know, come and help me bake my clothes." She regarded Zhao Ruozhi and Lu Shuiyi as a couple who loved each other, so she felt that there was nothing wrong with letting Zhao Ruozhi bake Lu Shui's clothes.
Zhao Ruozhi responded embarrassedly: "Huh? I? He couldn't believe it, he knew that he could turn around at this moment, he turned around and walked to Lu Shui's side, there was no pain between Lu Shui's eyebrows, it seemed that the warm fire brought her good protection.
Ge Yiyan took Lu Shuiyi's shirt and handed it to Zhao Ruozhi and said, "You help her bake her clothes first, and I'll go over and take a look." With that, she walked to the waterhole.
Holding Lu Shuiyi's clothes, Zhao Ruozhi was a little confused, although the clothes were soaked by the river, there was a faint fragrance on the clothes. He looked at the faint light of the fire and sighed silently in his heart.
As soon as Ge Diyan walked over, she saw something strange, she bent down and looked at a small pit on the ground and said, "There is a mechanism here, no wonder I haven't found anything at the bottom of the waterhole every time I come, how did you find it?"
It was only at this time that Sha Dutian noticed the small pit, which was the small pit left by him after kicking out the stone.
