Chapter 189: Exploring the Base Camp
But after a long distance, and without seeing anyone, we began to speed up again until we had finished the passage!
Yes, there was no road ahead, so I put the dumb man down, lowered my body and leaned out of the passage to see, what caught in front of me was actually a huge karst cave, and our position was at least ten meters above the ground, that is, the place we were in was on the wall of this cave hanging in the air. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
There were a number of scattered fires at the bottom, and around the fire were masked people gathered together in groups of several people, but without exception they all seemed to be asleep, their clothes were somewhat different from those of the mutes, and the color was dark blue.
"This should be the base camp of this group." I whispered to Heimu lying beside me, the dumb man didn't bring us here, in fact, there is no difficulty here, and I don't know what the relationship between the dumb man and Boss Yan is, is it a superior? Or what? Anyway, he has his own reasons for not wanting to bring us here.
"So many people? There are no less than 20 people to see here, and how many more are there. Kuroki was amazed.
I nodded, it seems that we had misjudged before, there were many more people in here than we thought.
"Brother Su, how can we go down?" Bai Wan'er looked around and asked.
I shook my head, there was nothing I could do for a while, our position was in mid-air, and below was a cliff for us, we couldn't go up or down, it looked very embarrassing. If you bring a rope or something, it's easy to go down, but how can we have these equipment.
But after thinking about it, since the cave entrance can lead here, there should be a way to go down. Now that we are here, we are not in a hurry, I said: "Let's observe their movements for the time being, first, to see what they are doing, and second, to find the traces of Boss Yan." ”
Only the person surnamed Yan is more special, the one-eyed dragon who does not wear a mask, as long as he appears, we will be able to find out, and then we will make a calculation.
In this way, Bai Wan'er is on the left, Heimu is on the right, I am in the middle, the three of them are lying on the ground side by side and waiting, it didn't take long for Heimu next to him to snore, startling me, I hurriedly pinched his nose, he woke up with a thrill, and said carefully: "What's wrong?" ”
I smiled bitterly and said, "Kuroki, it's okay for you to sleep for a while, but don't snore, you go and lie down in the back for a while, I'll call you if there's something." ”
Not to mention that Kuroki dozed off, in fact, I was also sleepy at the moment, and I wanted to sleep beautifully, but now I have to be very energetic and keep an eye on everything in front of me, these two children are counting on me.
Kuroki shook his head stubbornly: "I can hold on!" ”
I didn't persuade him again, he and Hadron have a very similar personality, that is, they are strong, but Kuroki can also say that his self-esteem is very weak, and Hadron is too mature, and even obstinately goes his own way to the point of paranoia.
After a while, the kid fell asleep on his stomach again, and the saliva from the corner of his mouth flowed down without hesitation, but fortunately he didn't make any sound.
"You can rest too," I whispered to Bai Wan'er.
"Brother Su, I'm not tired." She rested her little head on her tummy hand and looked sideways at me.
Looking at Bai Wan'er's lovely face, I lost my mind for a while, a simple girl in the flower season, Lao Xiao entrusted her to me, but what am I letting her go through?
Bai Wan'er said again: "Brother Su, do you think we will get out alive?" ”
"We can do it." I affirm that if you don't have faith, you will not be able to move forward.
We waited quietly like this, my eyelids began to heavily, but I still tried to persevere, until I vaguely heard a noise, I woke up alertly, only then did I find that I was actually asleep, left and right looked back at the black and white son, both of them fell asleep, I was relieved, but when I looked back, the place where the dumb man was before was empty, where is his figure?!
Hurriedly got up and sat down, shook his head vigorously, and lifted himself up, when did this dumb man wake up and leave? I took out my phone in frustration and saw that it was already past eight o'clock the next morning, but there was no day and night in this cave, it seemed that I was so confused, I slept for three or five hours, I was really glad that the dumb man didn't shoot at us in my sleep, otherwise how could we sleep here safely.
Looking back, I still don't have much of a guard against mutes from the bottom of my heart, otherwise I would never have been so careless.
But the disappearance of the mute made my heart empty, not only for fear that he would reveal our whereabouts, but also because I still had a lot to say to him.
Bai Wan'er heard my movements, and she also woke up leisurely and looked at me blankly.
I patted Kuroki on the ass and whispered, "It's time to get up." ”
"Hmm," Kuroki rubbed his eyes vigorously as he sat up and came back to his senses for two minutes.
I looked at the two of them, at least we had rested for a few hours last night, and our strength and condition had recovered a lot, and I said, "The dumb man is gone, although he should not be hostile to us, but there is no guarantee that something will happen to him, we have to hurry up and act, we can't stay here." ”
As I spoke, I poked my head out and glanced at the group of black-clothed people in the cave, they had already begun to move, some were talking in a low voice, some were sorting out their clothes, but they were all taking care of themselves, there was no pattern to speak of, and I couldn't see what they wanted to do for a while.
"Brother Su, look at the other side." Bai Wan'er said in surprise.
I looked up and saw that I had just been concerned about the movement near the torches, but I didn't expect that in the middle of the cave wall opposite, several figures were sliding from top to bottom on the rock wall, although I couldn't see how they did it, but it was almost certain that the ropes they were using, it seemed that there were no more passages like the ones we were in.
"But we don't have a rope either?" Kuroki wondered.
"Wait, that's Boss Yan!" Suddenly, I saw a few people sliding down from the opposite side, and as they landed at the bottom and approached the fire, the leader was unmasked!
When he walked to the central position, the black-clothed people around him also quieted down, gathered together in a regular manner, looking very orderly, Boss Yan paced back and forth in front of everyone, as if explaining something, but we were too far away to hear clearly.
"So what do we do now?" Kuroki said eagerly.
"Let me think about it."
Even if we have to deal with Boss Yan, we have to be able to go down. And on the opposite side, no one has come out from the position where they just came down, and they have never seen a rope-like tool in their hands from beginning to end, could they really climb down?
