I thought about the situation during this period of time, and I was basically sure that I didn't understand what Yu Pu meant. He brought the pocket watch in his hand to his eyes, looked at the time on the pocket watch, and silently wrote down the current time.

Although the time on the pocket watch cannot be directly regarded as the exact time of the present, it can at least be used as a reference. As things stand, I can make a bold guess – the nitric acid rain here lasts six hours at a time.

Assuming this hypothesis is true, if the nitric acid rain lasts the same for six hours every time, is it possible that there is also a fixed time when it does not rain? Could it be that the weather system here is such a fixed pattern, how many hours without rain, then six hours of rain, and so on.

If the weather here is really like this, then it means that we can predict every rain, and we will no longer be as embarrassed as when we first sheltered from the rain, and we can adjust the time of rest and activity accordingly, which will undoubtedly greatly increase our chances of survival!

Thinking like this, I feel more and more that Yu Pu has a very important clue. Speaking of which, I don't know if it's because of the pocket watch, Yu Pu seems to be particularly sensitive to time, and in the fairy tale forest, he is also the first person to find the law of time.

It's just that now I glanced at the back of Lu Haisheng carrying Yu Pu in front of me with some concern, such tiredness and sleepiness, I always feel that there seems to be something else hidden, I hope Yu Pu can be fine.

I sighed as I looked at the shadows of the trees around me, this room really left me a little confused, the clues that guide us in the No Man's City are the secrets of the city that no one is around, and the color TV tower with the logo, and the clues in the fairy tale forest are the escape gate that appears in front of us at the beginning and the words of Little Red Riding Hood later. So what about here? The only clues seem to be the "e" on the wrists of me, Yu Pu – and probably everyone here – but what does this symbol mean? Does that mean that the point of escape is ourselves? I just felt confused.

At the same time, I was also unsettled by the five new strangers.

The three men, Wang Haobo and Lin Chang, one is a threat to force, the other seems to have a bad stomach, and the remaining one is Li Sheng, although it looks quiet and subtle, but it also makes me feel that the city is very deep, and I don't know what to calculate. Fu Lingjun seems to be dissatisfied with us as the leader of action and decision-making, and although Wen Shiming has helped us before, she doesn't seem to want to have too much contact with us.

Although when I met Yu Pu and Fang Ruoxi in the Fairy Tale Forest, they were also strangers to me, but after all, this is different from the five people now.

At that time, Yu Pu and the others had not yet realized the danger of the Endless Room, nor had they experienced the friendship and trust of life and death together as companions, so it was easy to be subdued and fused into a united companion by me, Lu Haisheng, and Lin Ya, who could protect them to a certain extent.

But now, although these five people are different from the dangers we have experienced, they have also experienced life and death together. Even if they may not trust each other enough to trust each other with their lives, when faced with life and death, it is clear that they are more willing to trust someone who has already faced danger together than those of us who are meeting for the first time.

If the Endless Room is inherently very dangerous, when the people who experience him have their own thoughts, this ten dangers are magnified to a hundred.

Even though this was the third formal room I'd experienced, I'd seen it more than once at the expense of someone else's life, hadn't I?

The night is getting darker, the visibility is getting lower and lower, I can still see the outline of Lu Haisheng carrying Yu Pu in front of me, but now I can only distinguish a vague black shadow, I looked up at the darker sky, if I assume that the night is darkest at twelve o'clock at midnight, then it should be inferred that the time here should not be twelve o'clock now.

The soil under my feet dries quickly, and it has been about an hour and a half since the rain stopped, and when we first came out of the hole, the soil here was still a little muddy, but now it is much better, maybe I can judge the time of the next rain? When the soil returns to the way it was when we first entered here, it means that the next rain is coming.

Of course, all this is premised on my guess being correct.

I followed the black shadow of Lu Haisheng in front of me, and at the same time admired him for being able to walk like this with a big man on his back. Even at night, the temperature hasn't dropped much, it's still horribly hot, and I can clearly feel my sweat running down my cheeks.

In order to replenish the water needed by our bodies, we also drank a lot more water than usual, and we had to re-wet and rinse the cloth covering our mouths and noses from time to time, which was a huge amount of water, but in the only few hours we had been here, a third of the water that I and the wolf tooth had brought had already consumed. Even if others bring more water than we do, they won't last long, and the most important thing for us at the moment is to find a source of water.

After I rinsed the fabric that covered my mouth and nose again, I walked a few steps quickly and chased after Lu Haisheng, helped him re-soak his fabric and tie it back to his face, and after doing the same for Yu Pu, I whispered to him.

"Wolf Lu Haisheng." I'm still not used to calling it by that name, and every time I call it, it seems to remind me of the feelings that the man in front of me has for me—perhaps that's what he's for, "Can you see how big this forest really is?" We have already used up a third of the water we have brought and need to find a source of water as soon as possible. But the rainwater here is all nitric acid, and I'm worried that even if we find a water source here, we won't be able to use it. ”

"I don't know how big this forest is." Lu Haisheng replied in a low voice, his voice particularly clear in the woods, "There must be a water source here that meets our needs, and I am sure that there will be no danger in the room without a solution." ”

"Yes," I sighed, "maybe there is, but we don't even know how big it is, and I'm worried that we'll run out of water before we can find a source." ”

"No, it won't." The voice came from behind me, and I turned my head to see another black shadow, and from the voice, I recognized it as Lin Ya, "We will definitely find it, don't worry about it." ”

"Well, I hope too." I nodded, knowing in my heart that this was Lin Ya's encouragement, so I didn't continue to delve into this issue.

"Speaking of which, what's wrong with Yu Pu?" Lin Ya said, and reached out to Yu Pu's head to probe, "It's not feverish, it's really just an ordinary sleep?" ”

I glanced at Yu Pu on Lu Haisheng's back and nodded, "It looks like yes, I checked it before, it's really just an ordinary sleep, there's nothing wrong with it." Before I woke up, Brother Lin Ya, weren't you at the entrance of the cave with Yu Pu? Was there anything strange about him at that time? ”

"I'm wondering about that, too." Lin Ya's voice was full of doubts, "I didn't feel that Yu Pu was very sleepy when I chatted before, how could he suddenly fall asleep like this?" ”

I shook my head to indicate that I didn't know, and looked at Yu Pu and frowned slightly. Just like Lin Ya said, when he talked to Yu Pu at the entrance of the cave before, he didn't notice anything unusual, Yu Pu seemed to suddenly become very sleepy, and even fell asleep directly when he walked. I just hope that there is really nothing wrong with him and that he can wake up soon

"Xiao Lu, are you okay? Why don't I memorize Yu Pu? Lin Ya turned his head and asked about Lu Haisheng.

"No, I can carry it." Lu Haisheng shook his head.

I'm a little surprised, it's not that Lin Ya wants to replace Lu Haisheng to carry Yu Pu, after all, Lin Ya himself is a warm-hearted person, what I'm surprised is Lin Ya's name for Lu Haisheng.

"Little Lu?" I asked with a wry smile, "Is this your new name for Lu Haisheng?" Brother Lin Ya? ”

"Huh? Oh this," Lin Ya scratched his head, "Actually, I'm still quite used to calling Xiao Lu Wolf Tooth, but Xiao Lu said let's call him Lu Haisheng." And I always think it's weird to call my full name, isn't this older than all of you, so I just screamed Xiao Lu. ”

I turned my head curiously to look at Lu Haisheng, but because it was too dark, I couldn't see the look on his face when he was called "Xiao Lu", but I vaguely noticed that he didn't seem to mind the title.

"Then Brother Lin Ya, why don't you call me Xiao Mo? Isn't that my name you've always called? I looked at Lin Ya and asked curiously.

"This" Lin Ya seemed a little embarrassed, "Mo Li, if you like me, it's okay to call you Xiao Mo." ”

"Forget it, no." I shook my head, "I'm kidding, just call me by name, just call me by name." ”

Just when Lin Ya and I were chatting about the title, Lu Haisheng in front of him suddenly stopped.

"Shhhh

Lu Haisheng's voice was low, and it seemed to be a little lower at the moment, and when he heard the vigilance and seriousness in his voice, Lin Ya and I hurriedly stopped teasing and quieted down.

We stopped talking and didn't go any further. I don't know if I heard Lu Haisheng's words the same way, or if I saw us stop and noticed that something was wrong, there was no need for us to say anything, and the people behind also stopped and didn't continue to move forward.

When all our conversations and footsteps stopped, there was a moment of silence around us, which made a faint rustling sound come to the fore.

Rustle – sand –

I didn't know where the inexplicable voice came from, and I suddenly became nervous, and I looked around for the location or creature that was coming from, but I couldn't find anything.

There was a thick darkness all around.

Hidden is dangerous darkness.
