Chapter 093: Multiple Choice Questions
As far as I know, there are many experienced professional explorers among those who were killed, but they still fell for it, and it was impossible to prevent it!
Although Qixing is now the vice-captain, she can make decisions. But this decision was extremely risky, and Seven Stars easily did not dare to give this order.
According to the detection of the Seven Stars, if the gap on the top is directly connected to the outside world, the height is at least about seven or eight hundred meters. If an accident like the one I am talking about happens over such a long distance, not only will life become a dead end, but it may also cause loss of life, and the risk will be extremely great.
But if you keep going, I don't know if there will be a way out, and maybe after walking hard for a long time, you will find that it is a dead end.
Since there are people in front of you who have entered the underground from this side, it means that one of these two roads is a living road. All that's left is for us to do a multiple-choice question, which one to take!
Before deciding, I came up with an idea, let Shen Hao follow the road ahead to investigate again, to see if there would be other possibilities, and the time should be controlled within thirty minutes. I went in through the crack in the top for thirty minutes, and then we all went back to the same place and made another plan.
Of course, if I don't come back after thirty minutes, maybe I won't.
Seeing that I was talking about my life and death as if I was joking, Feng Jiutian and the others were very surprised. They thought I was really joking, but when they saw that my teammates were all grim-faced, not like they were listening to a joke, they knew that I might really be gone.
Seven Stars refused to let me risk my life again, so he thought of a compromise.
She suggested that everyone move on, and that it would be best if they could find another exit. If you hit a dead end, it's not too late to come back and walk that path. It's nothing more than a waste of time and energy, but fortunately, there is still some food and water, which should be enough to last until we go out.
I hesitated for a moment, and then An Beimo said to me: "Obey the order, since there is something else, don't try with your life!" ”
At this time, Shen Hao also persuaded me: "Dude! Your luck isn't going to be that good every time, and we agree with Seven Star's suggestion, so don't hesitate. ”
Even Feng Jiutian and a few people advised me not to take risks, and it was a big deal to walk more. I've come so far anyway, I don't care about walking more.
Of course, I'm also sorry for my life, but I'm a little anxious, and I wish I could leave this hellish place sooner. Since everyone is on the same page, I don't have much to insist on.
So we took a short break in the same place, and after the Seven Stars made some marks around us, we continued to set off again.
We had just walked for more than ten minutes when we suddenly felt a shaking under our feet. We were all shocked, and we were surprised that some gravel fell overhead. We hurriedly leaned against the wall to avoid the falling rubble, and Shen Hao asked puzzledly, "What's going on?" Earthquake? ”
I have been a soldier for more than ten years, and I still have this experience, and I said urgently: "Damn! This is someone using explosives/charges! ”
Seven Stars turned to me and asked, "Are you sure?" ”
I replied, "Of course! We used it in the mountains when we were in the army before, and I can't make a mistake about that. ”
An Beimo said: "Maybe it is impossible to enter the black hole, and someone has used the most barbaric method." Perhaps he was attacked by the Night Emperor and used heavy weapons. Whatever the reason, to use something like that in such a place is a bunch of idiots! ”
The shaking lasted for more than ten seconds before slowly stopping, except for some gravel falling, and the surroundings returned to calm.
Although the surroundings were calm, I had a very bad feeling. Before I could say anything, my feet began to shake more violently. This time it was much more intense than just now, all of us could barely stand, and Wu Jingshan fell even more. Fortunately, Feng Jiutian was by her side and pulled her up against the wall.
What I feared most had happened, the blasting had a chain reaction, and the impact of the vibration wave could cause the tunnels here to collapse, and we were afraid that we would be buried alive in this kilometer deep underground.
The falling stones grew bigger and bigger, but fortunately no one was hurt by the fact that everyone was clinging to the wall. It lasted for half a minute before the terrifying shaking slowly stopped.
I am already convinced that the tunnels have been severely affected, and that the subterranean balance of the Himalayas, which has lasted for thousands of years, has finally been broken.
"No, we can't go any further! The shaking will get louder and louder, and it won't be long before this place collapses. I said to the crowd in a hurry.
None of us have studied geology, only I have some practical experience. Hearing me say this, everyone's faces changed color, and Feng Jiutian asked me urgently, "Isn't this already stopped?" How can it get worse and worse? ”
I said, "The reason why these underground caves and passages have been hidden deep underground for so many years is because they are at a balance point. In other words, there's a reason why the Night Emperor uses these underground caverns as lairs, and that's that it's safe. As long as there are no major abrupt changes in the earth's crust, it will not be a problem to exist here for tens of thousands of years.
But once this equilibrium is broken, there will be a catastrophic chain reaction, and these holes will collapse from the weakest point. It's like a domino, pulling a hair and moving the whole body. ”
I saw that Feng Jiutian was a little unconvinced, and I didn't bother to explain to her, and at this time, there was some slight shaking that came, but this time the shaking was not big, and it didn't make much rubble fall from the roof of the cave.
But at this moment, my heart was like ashes, my back was cold, a sense of despair arose, and my face suddenly turned pale.
It was the first time everyone had seen me show despair, and they immediately understood that the most terrible thing I had just said was happening, that the underpass had begun to collapse somewhere.
I don't know how long it will take for the collapse to pass here, and then we will be buried alive in the ground. Unexpectedly, the hard work of the past few days turned into nothing, and the little joy that had just been found because of the way out was about to be replaced by the fear of death.
Wu Jingshan cried directly, the change of hope and disappointment was too fast, and her spiritual defense line was almost instantly broken.
Li Mingche sat in the corner, clutching his hair with his hands and burying his face in his knees, as if unwilling to face the impending death.
But Feng Jiutian was unexpectedly calm, she leaned against the wall and was silent, her eyes were dilated, and she looked more like she was sluggish.
"!" I scolded it, and after working hard for so many days, I was really unwilling to end it like this.
Qixing, An Beimo, and Shen Hao didn't say anything, but they all looked at me with firmness in their eyes.
I looked at them and suddenly remembered a thought, "Why don't you ...... Shall we go back to the crack that leads to the top? I tentatively said what I thought.
Actually, my teammates mean the same thing, instead of waiting here to die, let's all take a gamble together.
Just do it, and we immediately turned around and walked back. Shen Hao shouted and greeted Feng Jiutian and the three of them, saying that there was a way, and asked them to hurry up and keep up.
This thing reversed back and forth too abruptly, and Wu Jingshan was about to be nervous. However, as soon as they heard that there was another way, hope was rekindled in the eyes of Feng Jiutian and the others.
We were almost trotting all the way back, and when we got back to the crack on the top, Feng Jiutian asked me in surprise, "Is this the other way?" ”
I asked her, "Do you have anything better?" ”
"Nope! Don't get me wrong. Feng Jiutian hurriedly explained to me: "My mind was blank just now, why didn't I think there would be this road!" It's still up to you, and you can still keep your head clear at critical moments! ”
I didn't expect Feng Jiutian to be praising me, this surprised me even more than complaining about me, I thought to myself, this woman really changed sex overnight?
I didn't have time to think about that, so I put my gun behind my back, looked at the crack on it, and said to everyone: "Now we don't have time to explore the road, so we can only go on it together, and whether we live or die depends on whether this road can take us out." Let's say okay, everyone will follow me, and if anything happens to me, don't stay, leave immediately and think of another way. Remember! Don't give up at any time. ”
After speaking, I beckoned Shen Hao to come over and help me up.
"Wait!" Qixing suddenly stopped me, she walked up to me, stretched out her hand to me, and said to me very solemnly: "No matter what happens later, I am very happy to be a teammate with you!" ”
As soon as I grabbed Qixing's hand, I said solemnly, "I'm also very happy to join this team!" ”
An Beimo, who was standing next to me, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the back of my hand, and said in that cold tone: "We all have to get out alive, Hugo is still waiting for us!" ”
Shen Hao hurriedly came over and pressed it on An Beimo's hand, and swore and said, "Go out alive today to complete the task, and I will invite the whole team to a big meal!" ”
At this time, Feng Jiutian unexpectedly walked over and put his hand on ours, "Thank you for everything you have done for me, if I can leave here alive today, I will repay it with the rest of my life!" ”
This is the first time Feng Jiutian has said words of gratitude, but her gratitude sounds quite serious, and she actually has to repay it with "the rest of her life".
followed by Li Mingche, who was still a little depressed, but after holding his hand with us, he said loudly: "As long as I get out alive, I will never be a pilot again!" ”
In the end, Wu Jingshan wiped her tears and put her hand up, sobbing and said, "As long as you can take me out, I won't refuse any of you who want to date me!" ”
Her words immediately amused us.
At this time, there was an unprecedented unity, and I was so proud that I slapped everyone on the hand and said, "Trust me! Beast, come and carry me up! ”
Shen Hao agreed loudly, came over and lowered his body, and put his hands crossed in front of him. I stepped on his hand, and he slammed it, and my body suddenly rose, half of my body into the crack above my head.
I grabbed the crack in the stone beside me and strained my arms, and the whole person entered the crack. I kicked the stone walls on both sides with my feet and moved my body upwards by dozens of centimeters. Then shout to the bottom, "Next up!" ”
The second is Feng Jiutian, Shen Hao took it, I reached out to take it, and she also entered the crack. Following my example, Feng Jiutian supported both sides of the stone wall with his feet and stabilized his center of gravity.
I continued to climb up a little further to make room for her, and said to her, "Just pull it up one by one." ”
After that, An Beimo came up, then Wu Jingshan, then Beiqixing, Li Mingche, and finally Shen Hao.
It was not easy for Shen Hao to come up, because there was no one to trust him. But fortunately, it was Li Mingche on top, the man still had the strength, Shen Hao jumped and grabbed his hand, and was forced to come up. For this reason, Shen Hao even praised Li Mingche's strength!
