Chapter 197: Dark Underground Space

"Click, click, click......"

In the dark, it was impossible to distinguish between the east and the west, and it was impossible to see the surrounding environment, only the sound of dripping water and the smell of rust in the air.

Because the battery has been stored in the warehouse for too long, the power in it has been lost a lot, and it has not been able to maintain the operation of the elevator for long after being plugged in, so it is scrapped.

However, due to the obsolescence of the parts, the brakes of the elevator car could not stop the momentum of falling, so the elevator car carrying the turtledove and the insect smashed through the lowest level of the elevator shaft and fell into a dark space.

At this time, the turtle dove and the small worm were smashed to pieces, and they couldn't relieve themselves from this breath when they lay in the elevator car for half a day.

"Hey," the worm rubbed his head and blinked vigorously, "good fellow, you almost knocked me to death, hey, are you okay?" ”

It's also a shame that the battery has managed to keep the elevator running for a while, otherwise if it falls from the highest place, I'm afraid that even if the turtledove and the insect are both iron, they won't be able to parry, but since the insect didn't fall into any problems, the turtledove is naturally fine.

"I'm fine," the voice of the turtledove came from the elevator car, "but when I landed, I fell too hard, and my buttocks seemed to be broken into eight petals." ”

It seems that they are really fine, at least they can joke.

……

Insect eyesight in the dark is much better than turtle dove, especially in this environment where you can't reach out and can't see your fingers, turtle dove belongs to the kind that can't see anything at all, and the small insect can barely see a rough idea.

If you turn on your Eagle Eye mode, the night vision ability of the bug can be improved by several levels, but the current situation is not urgent, and the bug is not needed to do this.

"Come to me," listening to the voice, it was the worm beckoning to the turtledove, "there is the safety window of the elevator above your head, try to open it, the elevator door is probably locked, and the only way to get out is the security window." ”

"I'll try it first."

Turtledove didn't open the safety window as the worm said, he groped his way to the location of the elevator door, stretched out his two hands and tried to use the crack in the door to open the elevator door, but as the worm said, the elevator door was locked and could not be opened at all.

"Bang bang."

Unwilling to do this, the turtledove kicked the elevator door a few times in hatred, and then honestly followed the insect's instructions and managed to open the security window above his head.

……

Under the guidance of the worm, the turtledove didn't take much effort to open the safety window, he first lifted the worm out of the elevator, and finally climbed up by stepping on the handrail in the elevator compartment.

It was pitch black everywhere, and basically nothing could be seen, and the turtledove lowered his body and lay on the elevator car, carefully sliding down the edge of the elevator car, and fell into the water with a "poof".

The water here is not too deep, just reaching the calf, not reaching the knee, - fortunately the water is not deep, and let's not forget that the turtledove still has external wounds, and it has only been a few days, and the wounds have not healed, although the wounds are tightly bandaged, they still cannot be soaked in water.

It is common sense that the wound is prone to infection as soon as it is wet, not to mention that the water here does not know whether it is dirty or not, anyway, when you smell it, you will know that it is not clean.

"Where did you go?" The turtledove waded through the water like a blind man, "I can't see again, come and carry me away." ”

The turtledove was talking, and he didn't know what he stepped on under his feet, and he was about to slip backwards with an "oops", but fortunately the little worm had been standing next to him, and seeing that the turtledove's body had completely lost its balance, the little worm reached out and held him up.

"What are you talking about," the worm said, still glancing at his surroundings, "Am I not just standing here...... Wait, look over there, is there any light? ”

As soon as he heard the little worm say that there was light, the turtledove hurriedly widened his eyes and looked in the direction of the little worm's finger, but no matter how the turtledove looked, what appeared in his eyes was still boundless darkness, and there was no light.

"You're kidding, there's no light there."

The turtledove shook his head, opened his eyes again, and confirmed—yes, there was not a shred of light there.

"Don't talk nonsense, just follow me."

The little insect grabbed the turtledove's wrist with his left hand, and led the turtledove to slowly move forward in this dark space full of water.

A faint ray of light spilled down from the top of the mountain, finally allowing the turtledove to see its surroundings clearly.

A few meters away from his right hand was a wall, a metal pipe as thick as a water tank parallel to the wall, but over time, the rust layer on the outside of this metal pipe had peeled off a lot, revealing the rusted part inside.

In addition to the thickest metal pipe, there were many other metal pipes of varying heights and thicknesses in the vicinity, almost all of which were parallel to the wall, and several were perpendicular to it.

There is no doubt that this is not a "miracle of nature", but a real man-made structure.

In addition, the turtledove saw many broken stone slabs in the standing water at his feet, which had fallen from the high dome, so he looked up again at the faint light above him, and wondered how he could go up.

Is it difficult to climb up these pipes yourself?

……

"Don't be stunned," the little worm patted the turtledove on the shoulder, waking him up, "Let's keep going, maybe we can find a way out of this damn place." ”

"Are we in the basement of the Central Hospital now?" The turtledove followed the worm forward and talked to the worm, "If I'm not mistaken, isn't that distress call coming from here?" ”

The little worm never forgot that there was such a thing, she lowered her head and pondered for a while, but she couldn't figure out why, so she said to the turtledove: "Put this matter back first, you see, there is a door in front." ”

More than ten meters away, a cement step of five or six steps appeared in the field of vision of the two of them, standing on the cement step, the turtledove and the little worm's feet finally no longer had to continue to soak in the stagnant water.

The height of the concrete steps was almost a meter high, and at the level of it was a heavy iron door that was tightly closed, and the turtledove stepped forward and pushed it tentatively, but it did not move.
