With the madman in the atmosphere, the cold air pressure between me and the successive gradually dissipated, and he would always pay attention to me and hold my hand. I found that I was more and more affected by his emotions, and such a simple act could also taste the warmth.

The madman took us around for a long time, and then he became impatient again, and yelled irritably: "Do you know the way?" The madman didn't look back, probed left and right, and said, "Don't make noise, I'll take a look." It's strange, it's obviously in this direction, but the route is wrong, and the furnishings are not right. ”

I think it's not the madman who is lost, but the fact that the two of us and I actually count on him for such an important thing as recognizing the way. In addition, there is a problem with this cave layer itself, and on the metal pieces one after another, Father Lu clearly wrote that there were only three people left in their team because they were lost and lost, and Yu Qiuyuan and Han Dongling also had a precedent in front of them.

It has also been confirmed by my practice that the biggest possible reason for this phenomenon is the refraction caused by the air humidity in the cave, but if mortals do not walk together when they are separated from each other, it is very likely that they will be affected by refraction and deviate from the direction and thus be separated from the team.

The difficulty in this situation is that it is impossible to know the point of refraction without a reference, so it is impossible to determine the correct direction.

Since the madman can't be counted on, the three of them can only walk blindly. This two-story space is different from the top floor we have walked on before, there is no cave after another, it is a road that zigzags around the huge space. After the hot spring next to it, the temperature dropped a lot suddenly, and there is a serious problem at present, the backpack that I shared with Brother Liang should have been taken away by Brother Liang, so the livelihood problems of the three of them all fell on the madman.

But seeing that the food and water in his backpack just now are also limited, I am afraid that if it is divided into three people, it will not last long. So we're forced into a situation where we have to find a big team.

As we approached a circular stone platform, the madman suddenly shouted, "Yes, right! I've been here with Lao Liang, you come with me. He trotted excitedly, but the terrain was full of rocks, and the short one was about a person high, but in a blink of an eye, he saw that he was about to run into the corner, and he roared one after another: "Madman, stop me!" ”

Not to mention the madman, even I was startled next to him, and finally the madman was shocked by the roar, and he ran back with a sigh of relief, and complained: "You are walking too slowly, follow me, just ahead." ”

But what the madman said was just ahead, and when we walked for half an hour and found that we were still spinning in the same place, the eyes were full of fire, and we rolled up our sleeves and wanted to go up and punch them. The madman could also read the eyes, and could see that the faces were black one after another, and he smiled carefully and said, "I remember that it was in front, but I don't know why, why do you keep going back to this disc?" ”

I felt that something was wrong, I stopped one after another, and after he glanced at me, he also lost his temper and beckoned to the madman, "Come here." But the madman asked as if he were facing a great enemy, "Why?" Little Liu, don't you beat me? I really didn't mean to. ”

One after another, he patiently said, "Come here, I won't beat you." The madman shook his head desperately, "Forget it, I'm afraid that your iron fist will hurt all the time." I sighed beside me, silently counted one, two, three, and broke out one after another: "You come over to Lao Tzu, do you hear?" Don't come to me again......"

Directly dumbfounded, before he finished his threatening words, he saw the madman turn around and run, shouting as he ran: "I'll go find the way." "As soon as the smoke slipped, the figure disappeared. I looked at each other one after another, and finally came to my senses, and I couldn't help but complain: "Why are you so fierce? Look at him scared, now it's okay, what do you say when people run away? ”

"Where am I murdered? I just asked him to come over and ask him about the route and specific situation of him and Brother Liang to this place, and to find out if there were any details missing. Our situation is obviously affected by a certain link, and we are trapped here. I'll wait for him to come back and see if I don't beat him. ”

I thought about this too, but, "It must be that you always beat him and are afraid of you like that." He glared at me and complained: "How can I keep beating him?" From the time I met him to this day, I only beat him once when I first met him and came to make trouble, and then I treated him as a friend and never beat him again. Am I the kind of person who hits friends? ”

"Then why is he so afraid of you?"

"I don't know." After complaining one after another, his expression suddenly froze, "Wait, have you ever seen a crazy person who is usually afraid of me?" ”

I thought about it carefully, and said pertinently: "As far as the way I see the two of you get along, I often see you yelling at him and scolding him, but it seems that he is not angry, even if he is angry, it will not last long, and it will be fine after a while, and I don't seem to see how afraid of you." ”

After such an analysis, the madman's reaction just now was indeed a little strange, was he so afraid of succession?

One after another, his face was a little ugly, "This kid has a cat in his stomach, there are two possibilities: one is that he feels that he can't hang on the wrong road; The second is that he deliberately took a fork in the road and then took the opportunity to run away. From what I know about him, basically the first one may not be true, so this kid has been scolding us. At the end, there was a bit of gnashing of teeth.

"Then why did he do that?" I asked the key. Crazy people have always been heartless, and there is no reason why they would deliberately stumble, it must be for some reason, and the reason he did this is nothing more than to make us unable to find that big team. Inevitably, I thought of this to Brother Liang again, not that I was prejudiced against him, but that the behavior of a madman was affected by succession, and he was the only Brother Liang. And in comparison, he even listens to Brother Liang's words more, and he is used to making trouble one after another.

Because I had quarreled with Brother Liang one after another before, I buried these in my heart and didn't say it, and besides, his brain is very clear, what I can think of can he still think of? The wicked man will not do it.

We didn't discuss this issue much, and when we didn't see the madman come back after half an hour, the faces of the people sank so much that they could almost condense water, which undoubtedly proved our previous speculation.

He walked around the disc in front of him with a dark face, his eyes searching for details. Ever since the madman brought us here, we have been walking around the same place, which is equivalent to saying that this place is the beginning and the end.

It is said to be a disc, that is, an image point, and the stones that have just been erected form an irregular circle of about one meter in height, but there is a path to walk on just outside the disc. Outside of this circle, there were four exits at the four corners, two of which were dead ends, and after less than five minutes of walking, there was no way out, and we retreated. And the other two, take one of them, and go around and come back from the other, that is to say, they are connected.

I clearly remember that the madman took one of the dead ends when he ran away just now, and he didn't come back, which means that the road can be passed, could it be that he ignored some details before? The two decided to go again.

He carefully carved the mark with his knife, and then began to explore the way, and after five minutes, in the same situation, a large rock in front of him blocked the way, just like before. Along the road, one person probed left and one looked right, not letting go of any suspicious places, and even I tried to step on my feet to see if there would be a secret passage or something like falling into the second floor one after another before, but I didn't find anything.

After searching in front of the boulder for a while, he even bent down and groped up from the ground a little bit, and finally said in annoyance: "No problem, it's all solid." I asked, "Will there be a mechanism or something?" He shook his head, "It doesn't look like it, the mechanism is man-made, as long as it is man-made, there will definitely be traces, but this boulder is made of nature, and it has been ...... upwards."

As he said this, he looked up, and his voice suddenly jammed in his throat, and I looked up at the realization of something, and suddenly changed color, and finally understood where the madman had run. It turns out that this boulder has been extending upwards and is connected with the top wall, so describe it, this two-story space, in fact, is like a karst cave, there are countless stalactites hanging down on the top wall, and the menhir we saw before about half a person high is a stalagmite, but this boulder is not, it seems to be in this place itself, and then connected with the falling stalactites.

But stalactites can't have rules, and in the process of sagging, they will invisibly create gaps, so just above us when we look up, there is just a black gap facing us, even if it is small, but it is enough for people to drill into.

One after another, he became angry: "Okay, you crazy man, let's set Lao Tzu, don't let Lao Tzu find you, otherwise I won't beat you as a grandson and you won't be surnamed Lu today!" "After listening to his poisonous oath, I have the urge to laugh, learn from me and swear not to be surnamed Lu, if you don't have the surname Lu, do you still change your surname to Xu with me? didn't dare to show his smile, for fear of being implicated by his violent temper.

Since the hiking claws he made earlier were also in the madman's bag, he had just taken them with him, and we only had a searchlight left for lighting. So I pondered for a moment and proposed, "Let me climb up and explore first, maybe we thought too much, and he didn't go this way?" ”

He snorted through his nose one after another: "No." Help me shine the light. After saying that, he handed me the searchlight he was carrying, and then jumped up, and the man was already attached to the big rock, and he actually stepped on the raised stone and climbed upward.

Before he had time to feel any emotion, the halfway climb suddenly bowed his head and asked proudly, "How is it?" It's not worse than you, but I've participated in cross-country climbing competitions, and this little rock mountain is a small CASE at all. Wait for me below. ”

Ben still has the idea of praise, but it disappeared immediately, and there is also a cross-country climbing competition, is it him and the madman plus Brother Liang? It's not that I'm going to bury him, I won't humble myself at all, I'm always so in love.
