"If you stay here again, your body will not be able to bear it." I walked up to Yu Pu and handed him the water bottle in my hand, looking at him and frowning.

Yu Pu turned his head to look at me, reached out and took the water bottle I handed him, and said softly, "Thank you, I'm fine." ”

"Are you alright?" My brow furrowed even tighter, "You think you can call it okay?" ”

Yu Pu was silent and didn't speak, just covered his mouth and nose with the cloth that was re-wet in his hand.

I pursed my lips, ready to speak more clearly, and reached out and handed the medicine bottle in my hand to Yu Pu's eyes, "Maybe you can explain to me, what is this?" ”

Yu Pu seemed to be shocked when he saw the medicine bottle in my hand, snatched the medicine bottle in my hand, raised his eyes to look at me but was still expressionless, and didn't say anything, turning his head to look at the rain curtain outside the cave again.

I noticed that Yu Pu's hand was tightly gripping the vial.

"I didn't rummage through your backpack." I explained softly, "I don't know when, the zipper of your backpack opened by itself, and the contents fell out just now, and I accidentally found this bottle of medicine when I went to recycle it." ”

I waited for a few seconds, Yu Pu still didn't speak, didn't say anything, just looked at the rain outside, I cured and continued.

"I've explained it to you, shouldn't you explain it to me too? Estezolam tablets, also known as sleeping pills. You've been asleep because of it, right? Is there any particular reason? ”

Yu Pu was still silent, and I couldn't help but have a headache. I'm sure Yu Pu won't do anything meaningless, since he remembered to bring sleeping pills here, there must be some reason for him to do so. Thinking about his perverse insistence on resting at the entrance of the cave, my gut tells me that there is a connection between them.

"Don't you want to say it?" I watched Yu Pu's silent appearance with more and more headaches, and after thinking about it, I said softly, "I thought we were companions who could trust each other. When you told us you wanted to join us, didn't you just want us to help each other through these dangers? I don't understand why you won't tell me why, maybe you think it's safer not to tell me? But Yu Pu, you should know that the so-called security should only exist when you are sure that you can control the form. ”

I looked at the rain outside, thinking back to the previous situation: "Lu Haisheng always carried you on his back when you were asleep, and when you encountered a tiger and wolf and needed to climb up a tree, or when you escaped from a tree later, it was always him who carried you to protect you." But there were times when he didn't have any scruples. ”

"If, when danger comes, you fall asleep again because you have taken sleeping pills, and you are still not in danger in your unconscious state, how many times can you be lucky to be so lucky? With the unconscious you are not dragged down by you, do you think you are so lucky, how many times can we be lucky? ”

I paused slightly, and noticed that Yu Pu's hand holding the medicine bottle seemed to be tighter than it had just been. Maybe Yu Pu really has a reason why he can't tell me, or maybe he has his own plans, I shouldn't force him to explain.

Sighing, I also thought about it, "Forget it, since you don't want to say it, don't say it, you always have your own plans." Now that we know the pattern of this rain, you can coordinate it better, it's okay, we will protect you next time, after all, we are companions. ”

After saying that, I turned around and walked towards the cave, and after taking a few steps, I turned my head to look, Yu Pu still did not maintain the posture of looking outside the cave, did not make any movements and did not say anything.

To be honest, I am still a little disappointed, and I have to say that although what I just said is indeed sincere, it is not without expectation that Yu Pu will be moved by what I said and tell me the reason.

However, it seems that Yu Pu is indeed not an emotional person, and my desire to indulge in the past is of no use to him.

I walked back to Lu Haisheng and sat down beside them, Lin Ya and Fang Ruoxi had already fallen asleep. Probably sensing my approach, Lu Haisheng opened his eyes and glanced at me, and said in a low voice.

"What? He didn't say anything? ”

"Hmm." I sighed, "Why do you say Yu Pu needs to take sleeping pills?" Why are you reluctant to tell us why? ”

Lu Haisheng didn't answer, and I didn't hope that he would give me an answer, and continued to say to myself, "If the reason why he is reluctant to tell us is because he doesn't trust us enough, isn't it more dangerous to entrust us with his unconscious state?" But if he dared to take sleeping pills because he believed that we would protect him when he was asleep, then why couldn't he trust us to tell us why? ”

"Maybe it has nothing to do with trust." Lu Haisheng said, "Yu Pu is very sensible, I think he dares to take sleeping pills because he has confidence in us and knows that we will not leave him when he is asleep." The reason why they don't tell us is not because they can't trust us, maybe they just don't want to. ”

"Don't want to?" I was stunned for a moment, "Just because I don't want to, I'd rather take sleeping pills to take risks?" ”

Lu Haisheng shrugged, changed from leaning against the wall to lying on the ground, and turned over, "Everyone has things that don't want to speed up others, everyone has them." Or maybe he didn't think it would be helpful to tell us, so he didn't say it. ”

I looked thoughtfully at Yu Pu's back at the entrance of the cave and didn't speak again. Probably because I fell silent, Lu Haisheng also fell silent and quietly began to rest.

Since the pocket watch has been returned to Yu Pu, I have no timekeeping tools, so I can only roughly estimate the time, and change the wet cloth for Lu Haisheng, Lin Ya and Fang Ruoxi every once in a while.

I don't know how long it took for Yu Pu to suddenly walk from the entrance of the cave to the cave, and I heard his footsteps looking at him, but I found that the outside had brightened up a lot, and the scenery inside the cave had become much clearer.

"Is it dawn?" I asked Yu Pu softly, "It seems to be a lot brighter at the entrance of the cave." ”

"Well, it's supposed to be dawn." Yu Pu also glanced in the direction of the cave entrance as he spoke, "I roughly estimated the time of darkness and dawn here, when we first arrived here, the time of the first nitric acid rain was set to be three o'clock in the afternoon to nine o'clock in the afternoon, and then nine o'clock in the evening until three o'clock in the morning, this is the period when there is no rain, and then at three o'clock in the morning, the second nitric acid rain will start, it should be until nine o'clock in the morning, this rain will stop." ”

I silently sorted out Yu Pu's words in my heart and nodded, so calculated, the 24 hours of the day are divided into four time periods, two time periods have rain, two time periods have no rain, with such a standard, we can also prepare early before the next nitric acid rain comes.

"What time is it?" I asked Yu Pu.

Yu Pu turned sideways slightly, and looked at the pocket watch in his hand by the light of the hole, "It's about four o'clock, and it will rain for more than four hours." ”

After he finished speaking, he looked at me again, paused for a few seconds, and then said, "Do you want to take a break too?" Just leave the matter of changing the cloth to me. ”

I thought about it and nodded, although I slept for almost five hours when it rained last time, but after the previous period of no rain, I also feel a little uncomfortable in my throat, and I should also take a break and rely on rapid self-recovery to repair the respiratory system eroded by nitric acid.

"Then I'll trouble you, Yu Pu, I'll go take a rest too."

After Yu Pu agreed, I also lay on the ground and closed my eyes, ready to give myself a little rest.

After all, I had slept for five hours before, and now I lay down, but I didn't fall asleep immediately, and the sound of rain outside the cave came, accompanied by the small sound of insects crawling and rubbing, like a lullaby, to make people sleep.

Actually, I like to sleep on rainy days the most, and the sound of rain always makes me feel very relieved. It's just that there are no soft beds, no comfortable quilts, and the rain is not as harmless as the rain I've encountered before.

But at this moment, I still feel content and peace of mind.

In fact, I think it's funny that on such a dangerous island, in such a damp cave, on such a bumpy and hard ground, I feel satisfied and reassured by the sound of rain.

It's really strange for human beings that many times what we strive for with all our might will take on a completely unimaginable form at a moment that is completely unimaginable. The conditions and processes may be very different from what you envisioned at the beginning, but in the end you get the same result.

I really don't know if this should be called luck or misfortune.

I rolled over and my fingers unconsciously touched the position of my wrist, and I knew that there was an "E" shaped sign there. I haven't figured out what this symbol represents on my wrist yet, even if I don't have the opportunity to check Fu Lingjun and Wang Haobo, I can be sure that everyone here has this symbol on their hands except for wolf teeth.

What does it mean that the symbol of escape is in us?

I thought back to the signs on the Escape Gate, which were colorless until the conditions were met, and the signs on those doors would not turn green until the conditions were met and I could escape. And this sign on our wrist also needs to be lit up?

There were no signs on the door, and I wanted to grab something, but it was fleeting, and these signs made me feel so uneasy, I always felt that what they represented must not be what I wanted to accept.

Well, what if I don't want to accept it? In the endless room, I never had a choice.

I smiled silently, turned around again, and let my consciousness drift away and I fell into a deep sleep.

Sleep, sleep, sleep

When you wake up, you still have to face danger and death.
