Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Water Dragon Ascends to Heaven
After packing up the corpses of the SS, everyone searched the cave carefully, and it was confirmed that there were no other clues in the cave except for the brine spring in the center that was more than ten meters square. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
The crowd was a little relieved and a little discouraged.
The peace of mind is that the smoke soul that has been making people uneasy has finally died. It was discouraged that this place was not a place to stay for long - after a few days of consumption, the expedition team was about to run out of water and food.
Lao Wang volunteered to run out to see if the sandstorm had stopped, and when he came back, he was depressed, the sandstorm outside showed no signs of abating, and the hole had been almost buried with sand and gravel, and Lao Wang tried in vain to open a gap with a shovel, but found that the sand and soil shoveled out was not as much as poured in, so he had to give up.
After listening to Lao Wang's words, everyone was silent.
Timur squatted on the ground, looked at the sky, rolled his eyes, pinched his fingers and said something in his mouth. Probably calculating the math of when a pool will be filled with water from one pipe and one pipe coming in, asking the pool when it will be filled with water.
Zi Yang estimated the remaining food and water, after more than one day's consumption—especially Lao Wang's intemperance. Not counting Timur's camel leg, there was only enough supply for a day or two, especially fresh water, and there was only one small bucket left.
Ziyang began to complain that Lao Wang was too good to eat. One person's ration is on top of the other three's ration.
Lao Wang thought he was praising him, patted his stomach and said, "My stomach is okay with this part all over my body." ”
Zi Yang couldn't laugh angrily: "Why were you a pig in your last life?" ”
Lao Wang was reluctant: "Why did you start coming at me?" Can you blame me for this? I am not short of ambitions, horses are thin and hairy, one does not steal, two does not rob, I do not oppose the people, and I do not oppose the party. Didn't you just eat a few more cans of beef, what's wrong? Is it a great sin? Damn it? ”
Su Rui sat beside Alexander, silently watching Lao Wang and Ziyang arguing, when his uncle specially told him to have more contact with these two people, Su Rui was still a little puzzled, aren't they just two ordinary college students, one has no background and no specialty, why does his uncle attach so much importance to them.
But she knew that her uncle was far-sighted, and since he arranged it like this, he naturally had his reasons, so she took the initiative to contact Ziyang in school, but she didn't expect to come and go, and found that this teenager was a little different from ordinary college students, and he had some elusive temperament, and he actually had a good impression of him.
His dumb friend Lao Wang gave people the first impression of being a scoundrel, but after a long contact, he also found him a little cute.
Along the way, Su Rui's attitude towards the two of them has changed greatly, and it should be said that he is a little surprised. Let's not talk about Ziyang, just that Lao Wang, although his appearance is rude and unobstructed, judging from the information, he is not learned in school, but in terms of skill and courage, he is far beyond his peers, plus a handful of strength, and his hands-on ability is not said.
That little black is even more mysterious, the appearance of this character was an accident, even the uncle didn't expect it, it was originally unplanned, but it brought unexpected surprises. Silently, showing a few hands casually is a lost mastery.
And the seemingly ordinary Ziyang is not simple, for some reason, that little black seems to only listen to him.
Unlike ordinary young people, this guy is young and old, has a wide range of knowledge, and has mastered some knowledge that has exceeded the level of ordinary college students, and his psychological quality is not weak, and his logical reasoning ability is very strong, so he can see through Alexander's tricks in such a short time. The point is that he is also very observant, and no lie seems to be able to hide from his eyes.
Thinking of this, their eyes were just opposite to Ziyang, and from each other's gazes, they both felt that the other party was hiding something.
Su Rui interrupted Lao Wang's chattering complaints: "Let's wait for the storm to subside before thinking about the next step, everyone lie down and rest." Speaking and acting will be a waste of physical strength, especially a waste of air, and now the entrance of the cave may have been closed, although the tunnel is large enough to have no worries about lack of oxygen for the time being, but we also have to prepare for the worst. ”
Su Rui's words effectively made Lao Wang stop. Lying on the ground without making a sound.
If Zi Yang said such things, Lao Wang would definitely have to reason with him, "How can you call it a waste of air?" Oh, if I eat a few more boxes of canned food, you will call me a pig, and I will be guilty of taking a few more breaths of air, isn't it ......"
Zi Yang leaned against the rock, feeling that the air began to gradually become dull, although he knew that the air was still enough This was only the effect of his subconscious, but his mind was still groggy and sleepy, he wanted to sleep but did not dare to sleep, he persisted for a while, and finally lost consciousness in a daze.
In the chaos, Zi Yang seemed to feel a hand pulling at his clothes, a familiar immature laughter sounded in his ears, and there seemed to be a child's back in front of him: "Ah Chong, Ah Chong, is it you?" With a chuckle, the child turned his face to his innocent face with a smile.
Ah Chong, "It's really you!" Ziyang almost cried.
At this time, the child turned around, and the shadow faded away, fading away.
Zi Yang was shocked, "Wait for me, Ah Chong, wait for me......"
"Ah Chong!!"
Zi Yang shouted and sat up suddenly, sweating profusely, and the scene he saw in front of him made him feel like he had fallen into an ice cave, and his cold hairs stood on end.
The huge water dragon rose from the pool again, and the end of the water column was reflecting Su Rui's frightened face, and when he heard Ziyang's shout, the water column suddenly burrowed into the water again, and his whole body merged with the pool, and not even a drop of water waves stirred up.
Zi Yang ran to Su Rui's side in three steps and two steps, and asked, "Are you okay?" ”
Su Ruiwa burst into tears, hugging Ziyang tightly with both hands.
At this time, Lao Wang and Little Black Timur were also awakened. Lao Wang Meteor strode over to the moon and grabbed Ziyang's neck and dragged him back: "What are you doing, what are you doing?" Molesting women from good families in broad daylight, although your Lao Li is my brother, but the wife of a brother cannot be a wife......"
Zi Yang was pulled by Lao Wang Xiong Li and fell to the ground, ignoring him, looking at Su Rui's pale face, and asked, "Have you seen it all?" ”
Su Rui sobbed and nodded, "See, that strange thing is right in front of me, so scared that I don't dare to move." ”
Lao Wang was confused when he heard the conversation between the two, and his heart became even more angry, "What did you see?" What's weird? ”
Turning around, he twisted his eyebrows and said to Zi Yang, "You stinky rascal, did you take out something strange to scare Xiao Su?" As he spoke, he stared at Ziyang fiercely.
Su Rui hurriedly explained, "No, when I was asleep, a dragon-like thing came out of the pool, like a dragon, like water, transparent, writhing like life, stared at Alexander for a while, and then turned to me, only a few centimeters away from my face, I was so scared that I didn't dare to come out, if it wasn't for Ziyang shouting, I don't know what would have happened......"
Zi Yang listened to Su Rui telling Lao Wang and the others what happened just now, although after the panic just now, her emotions had gradually calmed down, but there were still a little tears shining in the corners of her eyes. I thought that she could cope with any difficulties along the way, but she was still scared at a critical moment, no matter how strong she was, she was a girl after all.
Lao Wang pulled up Ziyang with some embarrassment and said, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it turns out that everything is a misunderstanding." ”
Su Rui said, "Listen to the meaning of what you just said, you have already encountered it before?" ”
Zi Yang nodded, and told everyone about Su Rui's experience before he killed the smoke soul.
Su Rui was a little disgusted and said, "Why didn't you tell me about such a strange thing?" ”
At this time, in order to make up for it, Lao Wang patted the dust on Ziyang's body and said flatteringly: "I didn't tell you that I was afraid that you would be worried?" Afraid of hurting everyone's morale? Lao Li is a person I know, I will take any difficulties in my heart, and I will take the initiative to shoulder any burden. ”
Zi Yang pushed away Lao Wang's hand, this guy treated himself like a comrade-in-arms for a while, as warm as spring; For a while, it was like treating an enemy, and the autumn wind swept away the leaves as mercilessly. It's unbearable! After so many years of intersecting, I still can't fully accept this setting.
Su Rui looked at the pool and stared silently, checked it so many times, the only thing missing was this small pool, everyone thought that the danger would only be in the hole, and no one would have thought that this creature could not survive in the brine pool would hide such a mysterious thing.
Lao Wang threw a stone down, and the stone slammed and sank to the bottom of the water.
Su Rui took out a solid glow stick from his backpack, folded it a few times, and threw it into the water, the light slowly sank until it disappeared without a trace.
Everyone looked at each other, thinking that this pool of more than ten meters square was at most 1 or 2 meters deep, but they didn't expect it to be bottomless.
Then everyone had a disagreement, Zi Yang meant that such a strange thing happened, this hole couldn't be stunned, hurry up and leave.
Su Rui means that there is a sandstorm outside, and there is no way out in the cave, so it is better to explore this waterhole, maybe there will be an unexpected discovery - and the reason is also very good, the water dragon appeared twice, but it did not hurt anyone, and it did not seem to be hostile.
It's time for the minority to obey the majority again, Xiao Hei can't speak, and Timur is silent, as always, abstaining.
Lao Wang did not hesitate to stand on Su Rui's side.
Zi Yang was powerless, and he couldn't publicly evaluate Lao Wang's behavior, so he could only sigh in his heart: Alas, in the end, he is an anti-bone boy who forgets his righteousness.
Lao Wang next door is a person with strong action, and he doesn't stop doing anything at the moment, stretching his arms and trouser legs, and it looks like he is about to go into the water.
Su Rui stopped him: "You just go down like this?" ”
Lao Wang: "It's okay, I'm good at water, it's no problem to hold it underwater for three or five minutes, and I even won the breath-holding championship in school." ”
Su Rui shook his head, "The quality of this water is different from the water in an ordinary swimming pool, and what exactly is under the water is still unknown, and we don't know how deep the water is." ”
