Then, into the woods.

However, until dark, he could not find the crater.

The crater was farther away than he had guessed.

Previously, on the treetops dozens of kilometers away, Lu Chao thought that it was only more than 20 kilometers, but in fact, the place where the giant crater was located was probably close to 40 kilometers away from the place he was observing at that time!

It was dark, and I couldn't continue, so I had to set up camp first and continue tomorrow.

After being busy for a while, Lu Chao was very unwilling.

This must be close to the crater, right?

There was no moon tonight, and it was dark everywhere, and even if you climbed to the top of the tree, you couldn't see how far you were from the crater.

But he knew it should be very close, maybe a few hundred meters further on.

Lu Chao finally decided to give up camping, took out the oil lamp he got from Xu Junshan, lit it and continued to walk deeper into the woods.

Yaya had already fallen asleep, lying quietly on Lu Chao's shoulder.

Xiao Hei is still very energetic, running in front of and behind Lu Chao, if he runs too far, he will be shouted back by Lu Chao with a dog whistle, and he will not run too far with a conditioned reflex.

What will be in the pit?

Is there a hidden cave in the wall of a pit somewhere, and then there is a playroom inside?

Or a portal that doesn't know where to teleport?

Probably neither.

I always felt that it would be a new building.

School? Hospital? Restaurant? Public toilets?

The last one is still forgotten, no need to.

At the bottom of the pit, will there be a small town? An entire town teleported from the real world or the world of high martial arts?

Or, there is a passage at the bottom of the pit that connects directly to the real world, and you can return to the real world by jumping down.

She's gone, what's the point of going back to the real world?

It's impossible to find her in the real world, but it's still possible in the wilderness.

For example, Jiang Xiaoyun.

Similar to the encounter, Jiang Xiaoyun can be resurrected in the wilderness, and she should be able to do the same.

It's just that he didn't find a way.

In fact...... Lu Chao knew very well why he continued to go into the pit even though it was already dark and the night was getting deeper and deeper.

He knew what he was looking for.

It's not a school, it's not a hospital, it's not a restaurant, it's not an imaginary town.

He just had a feeling.

He felt as if she was waiting for him right there.

He only had to go some distance further before he could enter the pit, which contained a house.

A house with an old red coat hanging by the door and a little flower dog on the sofa.

She was waiting for him in that house, waiting for the maid.

As long as he keeps going, tonight, the family can be reunited in the house.

Yaya must be very happy to see her, right?

It's a pity that she didn't teach Yaya to call her mother, otherwise, Yaya would definitely be very happy to see her call her mother.

But the biggest possibility is that Yaya doesn't know her anymore.

But Lu Chao was not worried.

He believes that as long as the family is reunited, the estrangement and estrangement will not be a problem.

He would spend time with her, listen to her complaints, help her with housework, and help her with the maids.

Even if you stay in the wilderness all the time and don't go anywhere, as long as the family is together, you are happy.

For the sake of this happiness, he has to keep going.

He was going to get to her as soon as possible.

She must have been there waiting for him, waiting for the girl.

……

The night is getting deeper.

The giant pit was indeed much farther than Lu Chao imagined.

The walking speed in the woods is also significantly slower than on the concrete road.

Or maybe Lu Chao didn't walk out of an imaginary straight line, but walked in a big arc in the woods in the middle of the night, but he couldn't feel it.

He wanted to give up several times, wanting to continue after dawn tomorrow, but in the end he persevered.

He didn't want her to wait all the time, but he couldn't wait for him and Yaya.

After many psychological hints to herself, Lu Chao was already convinced that she would appear in the house at the bottom of the pit.

Although this imagination is very absurd.

He knows that no matter what one is doing, one must give oneself a belief.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to stay the course.

She is now his faith.

It has always been his belief in the wilderness to continue searching.

"Woo!"

Just when Lu Chao hesitated again whether to give up, rest on the spot and continue to look for the location of the giant pit tomorrow morning, Xiao Hei suddenly ran forward.

The sound is not a threat, but something it has discovered.

Lu Chao followed Xiao Hei forward and walked forward for a few dozen meters.

Finally......

A giant pit appeared in front of him.

In the middle of the night, it is not clear to see, giving people a very large and deep feeling.

She couldn't be in there.

Home can't be there either.

Because, there is no light in the whole pit.

At the moment when he saw the pit, he suddenly felt that he was really a little paranoid.

Paranoid enough to think she would be here.

How is that possible?

However, if he is not paranoid, how can he make her in his memory and imagination manifest her in the wilderness?

Therefore, he must be convinced that she is in the pit.

Waiting for him at the bottom of the deep pit.

Therefore, he had to continue to move forward, deep into the huge pit in front of him.

Perhaps only this extremely rare terrain in the wilderness could help him complete the realization of her.

……

Based on several long-distance observations on the treetops during the day, Lu Chao deduced that the diameter of this deep pit was about five kilometers, and the depth may have reached about one thousand meters.

If he wanted to get to the bottom of the pit, he would have to walk at least two or three kilometers further.

The edge of the pit is partly steep, almost vertical cliffs.

But this is not difficult for Lu Chao.

He's not the same otaku he used to be.

There are also a large number of species endemic to this wilderness growing on the walls of the pit......

Tree.

As long as Lu Chao slowly climbs down these trees, he can slowly reach the relatively gentle area at the bottom of the pit, and then he can continue to walk safely.

Lu Chao took out a rope belt, strengthened the girl who was tied with a waist stool on his body, and then climbed down the cliff wall of the pit to the bottom of the pit.

"Li, wait for me, and Yaya and I will be home soon."

Lu Chao was firm in his belief, cautiously, step by step, and arrived at a relatively gentle place at the bottom of the pit an hour later.

Then, carry the oil lamp and continue walking.

The bottom of the pit is actually similar to the rest of the woods, and everywhere you look, there are all trees that Lu Chao is extremely familiar with, but the terrain at the bottom of the pit has been slanting down.

One of the advantages of the woods in the wilderness is that there are no other beasts, poisonous snakes, poisonous insects, etc., except for the beasts cast by mysterious powers, so people don't have to worry too much when walking in the woods late at night.

It's a long way to go, but if you think of it as a way home, it feels a lot easier.

The closer to the bottom of the pit means that the closer to home and to her, Lu Chao's originally tired body and spirit will be re-energized again and again.

Another two hours passed.

The ground ahead is getting smoother and gentler, and it should be almost to the center.

Finally.

Lu Chao walked out of the woods.

It was indeed out of the woods.

In front of it is the center of the crater, where there is not a single tree, as if it has been cut down artificially, or it was not planted in the first place.

There was no moon in the sky, but Lu Chao was used to the dark eyes and could still see some things clearly.

Like the faint building in the center of this clearing.

He seemed to see the warm light in the window of the building, and then, there was a familiar figure.

He was standing by the window, waiting for him to come home.

Tired.

I'm almost home.

Hang on.

Lu Chao's steps began to stagger, but he was still determined.

Step by step, I walked towards the building in the dark.
