Xu Xing is very curious about where the water source for these more than 20 people comes from, if there is no food to eat, the highest record of human hunger is more than 20 days, just drinking water does not skip eating, but if you don't drink water, then no matter how strong a person is, it is to resist for four or five days, and it can resist for more than a week, which is rare, in fact, it is almost impossible to find this kind of person, and for ordinary people, if you don't drink water, you will die in three days.

However, at this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the cave, and Xu Xing instinctively put his hand on the handle of the knife, as if he could do it at any time.

But the miners hurriedly shook their hands at this time, as if to indicate that the person who came was not an enemy.

The vines at the door of the stone chamber were suddenly separated from both sides, and a guy in military uniform had already walked in, and there were five or six kettles in this guy's hand. How come I haven't seen you? ”

As soon as this guy spoke, what he said turned out to be standard Chinese, obviously judging from his face, he felt that Xu Xing was a Chinese, and one of his hands was secretly stretched behind his waist, looking very wary of the person who had just appeared.

Xu Xing saw the other party's appearance and knew that the other party was guarding himself now, so he hurriedly explained: "Don't worry, I'm not a bad person, I'm here to save you, I will take you back to Qiuming, you don't have to be so careful." ”

Fortunately, this guy who just came back from taking water knows Chinese, and after hearing what Xu Xing said at this time, he immediately relaxed and handed the kettle in his hand to others, everyone is also short of water, and after getting the kettle, he immediately began to replenish water.

In the cave, even if fuel is found, then you don't dare to make a fire casually, not because you are afraid that it will attract the attention of the enemy after making a fire, but because the cave is underground, and the air condition is not good enough, if the oxygen is consumed after ignition, then everyone will be suffocated.

However, fortunately, in the underground, the temperature is not particularly low, even if there is no fire, it will not be frozen to death, the surrounding loess is the most suitable thermal insulation material, even if the ground has been frozen three feet, the temperature of the underground will not change too much.

Xu Xing looked at the group of people here, and hurriedly said, "I'll take you out of here, anyway, staying underground now won't have a better life." ”

"Do you know the way out?" The man who fetched the water hurriedly asked.

Xu Xing nodded and said: "No urgency, I do know a way, I can leave the underground directly, although Qiuming is now dilapidated, but the city is always safer." ”

Xu Xing looked at the people present who were miserable, and it was not a good choice to continue to let them stay here, since he was here to find mutant plants and save people, it was also his job to save people at this time.

Everyone was also very happy to hear that they could leave the underground, since they entered the underground world, they don't know how long it has been, the underground can't see the sun, so they can't tell the difference between day and night, they dream of wanting to leave the underground, as for what happened in the outside world, they don't know anything at all.

But at this time, the guy who fetches the water hurriedly said: "I saw that the tree man has already moved, and if you go out at this time now, you will definitely be attacked, why don't you wait a minute, and when the tree man comes back, we will go out again?" ”

Xu Xing also remembered that when he went down to the cave in the ground, the surroundings were already very dark, if he went out, it might be night, and the tree man acted in the dark night.

Thinking of this, Xu Xing also gave up the idea of taking people to escape immediately, and said in her heart: "I just left the city lord for one night, it should be no problem, right?" ”

Xu Xing's heart was also very uneasy at this time, it can be said that he was very worried, obviously the city lord ordered to kill the hateful scumbag, but he let people escape, which really shouldn't be, and it was very inappropriate to delay returning to the city lord's side, but Xu Xing also knew that the more than 20 people in the cave needed protection, and now they couldn't leave easily, so Xu Xing had to stay.

Xu Xing trusted Shen Feng's combat power very much, and he believed that the three people on the city lord's side would be fine, so he would save people for the time being.

"Perhaps, when I tell the lord the way to the underground, he will praise me for it." Xu Xing thought silently in her heart.

However, Xu Xing suddenly remembered something at this time, and hurriedly asked, "By the way, where did you find the water source?" Also, how do you know if the Treants have acted? How did you hear all this? ”

The man who fetched the water was called Chatsev, and after hearing Xu Xing's question, he hurriedly said: "During this time, when we were hiding underground, we were always exploring the situation underground, trying to find a way out, but we never found it, but we also found a place where there was underground water, and the location of the enemy, and there were caves leading to the enemy's lair. ”

As soon as Xu Xing heard this, she was immediately surprised, and hurriedly said: "Take me to see, I want to see where the enemy's lair is!" ”

This time, Shen Feng's purpose was to find the mutated plant, and then burn it directly, but recently he was only about to find the location of the enemy, as for where the enemy was hiding, it was completely unclear, and now at this time, Xu Xing heard that there was a cave leading to the enemy's lair, and he immediately became excited, if he could directly find the enemy's lair, wouldn't it be a great achievement?

"City Lord, I won't let you down, I will definitely come back to you with useful information." Xu Xing thought silently in her heart.

But Chatsev showed a look of embarrassment at this time: "But it's far away from here, and it will take at least two hours to go back and forth!" ”

"It's okay, it's okay, two hours is two hours, hurry up and take me to see, I'll take you out tomorrow, such important news, you must tell me at this time." Xu Xing said stubbornly.

Xu Xingdu has already said that to this extent, Chatsev is not easy to refuse, after all, he still has to rely on Xu Xing to leave the underground with him, which cannot be offended, otherwise if the other party repents, his side will miss the opportunity to leave the underground in vain.

Afterwards, Chatsev took Xu Xing out of the hiding place, carrying five or six empty kettles, the water source he brought back just now had been drunk by more than 20 people, and everyone had no extra water intake device, so they could only come back with six kettles at a time, and this kind of thing was done in turns.

The cave is excavated by mutated marmots, but it is not tall enough, Xu Xing walks in the cave, it is completely impossible to straighten the body, so that after going out for a distance, Xu Xing's waist will become sore, in fact, walking in this kind of cave, the best way is to crawl on the ground, this is the most energy-saving way of action, but out of human dignity Xu Xing is not allowed to do this.

When a child crawls on the ground, no one will say anything, because everyone knows that children can't walk yet, and crawling is the only way they can move.

However, if an adult crawls on his knees, he will be as lowly as an animal and will be looked down upon by others.

After thinking of this, Xu Xing could only silently endure the soreness of her waist and limbs and continue to move forward.

After walking for more than an hour, going through many forks in the road, every time she passed a fork in the road, Xu Xing would throw down a little thing as a marker to make sure that she was not taking the wrong path, and finally, Xu Xing followed behind Chatsev and found a hole with light.

Before she got closer, Xu Xing could hear the sound of "boom", and when she looked closer, she was immediately stunned.

Outside the entrance of the cave where Xu Xing is located, there is a huge space, although it is still underground, but you can see a huge waterfall flowing out of the hole, and finally falling downward, the height of the waterfall can be more than 30 meters, and the rumbling sound heard before is the sound of the waterfall falling into the waterhole.

It is hard to imagine that there is such a landscape in the ground, the waterfall falls from the sky, making a loud noise, this is a huge space, it seems that the ground has been torn directly at this time, and the torn earth, directly below is a waterhole, in the waterhole is a lake island, a huge tree grows from here, the height can be fifty meters, this tree has colorful fruits, at this time is emitting fluorescence, the light seen in the cave is from these fruits, Although one fruit is nothing, the illuminated range is limited, and when ten thousand fruits are glowing, the cave suddenly shines as if it were day.

"This must be a mutant plant, it's really huge, such a tall tree, it's unimaginable that it grows underground." Xu Xing began to sigh silently in her heart, at this time she almost couldn't believe what she saw, there was such a space in the underground world, and there were such big trees.

This tree, Xu Xing couldn't see what tree mutated from, he could only see the huge canopy, the crown almost filled the entire underground space, and there were many notes hanging under the canopy, and there were small cages hanging under these notes, although it looked small, it was also relative, because Xu Xing saw that there were many animals in these translucent cages, and there were even such ferocious individuals as the Siberian tiger.

Xu Xing was carefully observing this underground space, while Chatsev stretched out his hand from the entrance of the cave and put the kettle on the stone wall next to it, when the waterfall fell, there was also water flowing on the stone wall, so as long as the kettle was brought over, it would be filled quickly.

Xu Xing continued to observe, trying to find the tree people, but found that there were only a dozen scattered tree people below, wandering around, and there was a glowing fruit growing on the heads of these tree people, which looked like a lantern from a distance, seeing this scene, Xu Xing also figured it out in his heart.

What the scum I encountered before was that the tree man had one eye, and Shen Feng didn't believe it at the time, but now it seems that on the tree man's head, it is just a glowing fruit.

"Almost, let's go back, since we have found the enemy's lair, then the problem is simple, next time I will take someone to plow the court and sweep the hole, I don't believe that I can't defeat the mutant plant." Xu Xing had already received enough information at this time, and he was very relieved in his heart, no matter how the city lord blamed himself in the future, as long as he could inform the city lord of such important news, then the city lord would definitely not punish him.

When Xu Xing was secretly happy, Chatsev hurriedly poured water into his mouth, and it was difficult to get out of it, of course, because he wanted to drink water.

Next, Chatsev was about to continue to reach out to irrigate the water, but at this time, a vine suddenly flew over, grabbed Chatsev's arm with lightning speed, and then pulled it hard, and dragged a man who was five big and three thick directly out.

Chatsev did not expect that he had been watering the hole for a long time, during which there had been no accidents, and no tree man had found out, but at this time, he was dragged out of the hole and fell towards the pool below, and Chatsev suddenly let out a miserable scream.

"Ah...... Help me......" Chatsev's loud cry for help echoed in the air, sounding miserable, and in the end, he fell heavily into the pool.

This happened unexpectedly, Xu Xing wanted to reach out to the rescue, but at this time, it was not even Xu Xing's turn to lend a hand, and Chatsev had already been arrested, which made Xu Xing feel a sense of panic in his heart.

Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen rattans came out of the canopy and chased them in the direction of the hole, and it was obvious that Xu Xing had also been exposed at this time.
