Chapter 207: Ear Lamp

Wu Lin grabbed a handful of ears in great irritability, and said hatefully: "It's so dark!" ”

I gave him a puzzled look, but he didn't notice that I was looking at him, and still shook his flashlight in frustration, while his other hand reached to his waist and touched the handle of the pistol from time to time.

After a while, Wu Lin scolded and said again: "It's so black, are you stupid X when everyone else!" ”

Two dirty words in one sentence made me a little uncomfortable.

After scolding this, Wu Lin turned around and said to me: "If you don't want to become a boiled king, hurry up!" ”

He scolded himself, and he didn't care what my reaction was, he turned around and left.

I felt like I had eaten a fly poop, but I didn't know the way in this place, so I could only follow his footsteps.

He was about to walk straight forward, but he shook his flashlight wantonly, and the beam of light swayed around irregularly, which made people feel extremely irritated.

I walked behind Wu Lin and often hit his right hand with the beam, and I found that this guy would press his palm against the handle of the gun from time to time, obviously looking like he was ready to shoot at any time.

Hell knows what he's trying to shoot, maybe he's going to kill me by surprise.

The key is that Wu Lin seems to have become very sensitive now, I am afraid that if a sentence is inappropriate, he will do it with me, in this kind of place, if Wu Lin and I turn against each other, then it will really be dead.

Fortunately, this state of affairs did not last particularly long.

After about an hour, Wu Lin stopped shaking the flashlight, and his hand that touched the butt of the gun from time to time also sank.

In fact, I don't know which state is Wu Lin's normal state.

He kept this quiet state and walked for about ten minutes, and I saw that the beam of the flashlight shooting into the darkness was blocked, and a miserable white spot of light was cast twenty or thirty meters away.

Wu Lin stopped, turned his head sideways and said, "Find the door." ”

I walked to Wu Lin's side, and also raised a flashlight to shoot the light forward, in the miserable white spots, I could clearly see some irregular shape of uneven undulations, the light was obliquely illuminated, and I could see a very faint oil reflection.

Not far ahead, there should be a large area of stone wall, those vague uneven undulations are the natural formation of potholes in the stone wall, and the faint oil reflection indicates that this wall has also been lubricated and corroded by moisture, but the degree of corrosion is not too deep.

I squinted my eyes and looked at Wu Lin, he stared ahead without squinting, and there was a chill in his eyes, which wrapped the tone of his voice when he spoke just now, and also exuded a smell of cold winter wax moon.

He probably noticed that I was looking at him, and he also turned his gaze slightly, glanced at me with his peripheral vision, and then walked quickly towards the stone wall in front of him.

When I was about to walk up to the stone wall, he raised his hand and pointed to my right side: "Find the door." ”

It was just such a simple two words, and as soon as the end of the word "door" fell, he turned around and walked towards the left side of the stone wall, and it seemed that he was planning to divide into two ways to find the door in his mouth.

I didn't talk nonsense, and immediately shook my flashlight and probed on the stone wall.

At first, I thought that it was another stone door two or three meters above the ground, so my sight and light kept sweeping at a height of two meters away, and after tossing for a while, I didn't find anything, but Wu Lin's voice came from afar: "Found it, come here!" ”

Judging by the sound of his voice, he was at least fifty meters away from me, and he spoke at the same volume as he usually chatted, and if it weren't for the silence of the place, I wouldn't have heard him speak.

I turned the flashlight and lit it in the direction where the sound came from, because the flashlight was very faint fifty meters away, I could only see the outline of Wu Lin, at this time he turned off the flashlight, and his face seemed to be facing the stone wall.

I walked a little closer to him, and then I saw a rectangular doorway more than half a meter wide and two meters high directly opposite him, and there seemed to be some shiny grease blocks hanging on the edge of the doorway.

But why did this guy Wu Lin turn off the flashlight? Without light, how did he find that little door?

While thinking this, I had already reached him, and without looking back, he reached out and waved at me twice, saying, "Go behind me, and turn off the flashlight." ”

It can be said that I have almost no understanding of this dark space at the moment, I have to do whatever Wu Lin tells me to do, and I have no other choice.

I walked behind him, stood in a line with him, and turned off my flashlight.

"Don't move, wait for the light."

As soon as the surroundings fell into absolute darkness, Wu Lin's voice came from in front of me.

I don't know what this guy's personality has been distorted again, but now he speaks surprisingly concisely, and he can't wait to jump out a few words.

I thought so in my heart, and I didn't talk nonsense, so I stood quietly behind Wu Lin and "waited for the light" with him.

If I'm not mistaken, he probably meant that there would be light ahead in a moment.

Sure enough, it didn't take long to wait, and suddenly a white fire flickered a few times in the small door in front of him, but the light didn't light up after all, and disappeared after a few flashes.

Wu Lin's voice appeared again: "Keep up!" ”

Then I heard his footsteps, and the rubbing of clothes against stones.

Although I couldn't see anything, I could probably tell that he had already entered the small door as he spoke, and because the door was so narrow, his shoulder rubbed against the edge of the hole when he entered.

In order to keep up with Wu Lin, I also took two steps with my legs open, but I didn't expect him to stop after entering the door.

I felt that Wu Lin should have stumbled two steps, and I quickly bent down to stabilize my center of gravity.

Wu Lin's voice came from the front: "Be careful. Did you bring matches? ”

I responded, "No." ”

Wu Lin: "Move to the left." ”

I took two steps to the left as he commanded, and when I landed a second time, I heard a "pop" of gunshots, and the muzzle of the gun erupted in bright sparks at the same moment.

The bullet must have hit a stone or something, and after the gunshot, I felt a lot of small sharp particles hit me, which must have been broken out of the stone after it was hit.

At the same time, I also smelled a smell of blood, and immediately asked Wu Lin, "Are you injured?" ”

Wu Lin responded: "It's okay, a little injury." Cover your eyes with your hands! ”

He shouted in a hurry in the last half of the sentence, and I thought that something must be wrong, so I quickly raised my hand and covered my eyes.

That is, the moment my palms were close to my eyes, I suddenly felt a light in front of my eyes.

What a strong light it must be, it can penetrate the flesh on my palms and closed eyelids, and directly produce a sense of light in my vision!

The light came suddenly, but only appeared for a moment before disappearing.

I waited until Wu Lin said, "Okay." Then he put his hand down.

When my palm left my eyes, I felt a light around me, and when I opened my eyes, I realized that we were in an extremely deep artificial tunnel.

On the stone walls on both sides of the tunnel, there is a semicircular stone trough every three meters or so, the groove is about ten centimeters deep, and a stone platform with a depression is embedded in it, which is less than half the size of a palm, filled with clear grease, and there is a wick, just like an oil lamp.

At this time, all the oil lamps in the tunnel were lit, and the surrounding scenery seemed to be floating in the flickering firelight.

Wu Lin pointed to a stone trough beside him: "This thing is called an ear lamp, as soon as it appears, the cloud cone will not be far away." The road ahead won't be easy, so you'll have to be a little prepared. ”

Hearing the tone of his voice, my heart suddenly swooped out.

In a word, this guy said in several different tones, at first cold, then calm, then manic, hearty, angry, etc., and he almost didn't spit out a word, and he would become a different person.

I felt that the souls in his body were colliding violently at this time, and each soul wanted to take control of the body.

However, he only spoke in a strange tone, but did not do anything out of the ordinary, and after saying this, he beckoned to me and motioned for me to continue following him.

When I walked to the place where Wu Lin had just stood, I noticed that there was a cone-shaped bullet hole in the stone wall on the right side of the place, and there were faint grains of light flickering near the bullet embedded in the depths of the hole.

Wu Lin first walked for more than ten meters with ordinary steps, and then he didn't know what he noticed, so he suddenly quickened his pace and ran up in the tunnel like a gust of wind.

I noticed that as he ran, he stretched out his left hand and gently pressed his palm against the stone wall, and as he ran, the palm of his hand kept rubbing against the wall, but fortunately the wall was very smooth and not so bad as to break his hand.

But what the hell is this guy doing?

Wu Lin's current state is not quite right, and I don't want to talk to him more, but while trying to catch up with his footsteps, I also measure my face from time to time to see what is on the stone wall on the left.

All I could see was the wall moving rapidly behind me, and the light of my ears that kept passing me.

In the end, I gave up and simply concentrated all my strength on the soles of my feet and tried my best to keep up with Wu Lin.

He's so fast that if I get distracted, it's easy to get dumped by him.

As we ran as hard as we could, the lights seemed to be mixed with impurities, and green smoke gradually came out. It started out as a very light smoke, and it didn't take long for it to turn into a thick smoke.

I didn't know what the wick and oil of the ear lamp were made of, but I thought that the smoke from the flames barely smelled pungent, and I didn't think much about it at first, but as the smoke floated in the tunnel for longer and longer, the air became extremely oily.
