"The excavation is going well, Mr. Xu, are you okay?" Yu Changqing asked every once in a while.

"I'm fine, President Yu, don't worry. Xu Mo replied, from beginning to end, he was talking to Yu Changqing with the ability of the unity of heaven and man, and the Gu sisters couldn't hear it at all.

When Gu Lin was done, she and Gu Ling snuggled up and sat down again, and the two sisters hugged each other to keep warm. At first, it was okay to support, but as time passed, after two days, the two became more and more hungry, and the heat generated in their bodies became less and less, and they gradually became unable to support it.

The two of them were sleepy and cold, their teeth were chattering, and they were very hungry and weak, and later, even Gu Ling was reluctant to speak, so Xu Mo took off his coat and covered the two sisters to no avail.

After another period of time, Gu Ling finally couldn't help it, and said to Xu Mo again: "Big... Big... Uncle, you... You... Target... The people of what... When... Yes... Can you save us from the Devil?"

I shivered coldly, and I couldn't even finish my words.

"Bear with me, and you'll be fine. Xu Mo was anxious, but he had no choice but to comfort him.

glanced at the two sisters, and saw that the two of them were really cold, so they had to say, "You guys come here." ”

Gu Lin obeyed him, heard him say this, didn't ask anything, and moved in his direction, Xu Mo stretched out his right hand to hug her, Gu Lin 'um' sound, and fell softly into his arms.

Gu Ling said: "... Why?"

took out his mobile phone and took a photo, and saw that his sister had leaned over to Xu Mo, and was held in his arms, trembling, and still did not forget: "Big... Uncle, now... Only... Are you about to start?"

"What to start?" Xu Mo saw that she was babbling nonsense again, and said angrily: "If you don't want to come over, just stay there." ”

Gu Ling's voice trembled, "Good... What a fierce uncle. Saying this, he still leaned over to Xu Mo. Xu Mo stretched out his left hand and hugged her, letting the two of them lean on him at the same time, breathing quietly, and the heat in his body was emitting endlessly at the same time.

"Huh! It's hot. Gu Ling said in surprise, "Uncle, why are you getting hot? No—" apparently trying to be crooked again.

Xu Mo didn't wait for her to finish, then scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, or I will throw you out." ”

"It's so fierce!" Gu Ling muttered quietly, but said nothing.

The Gu sisters were warmed by his body temperature, and they felt much better, although their stomachs were still very hungry, their bodies were not so cold.

Xu Mo ran a quiet breath and used his own body heat to warm the Gu sisters, but this quiet breathing consumed the energy in his own body.

He settled down, feeling the Gu sisters leaning on his side left and right, Gu Ling wrapped his hands around his waist, his head pillowed on his chest, smiling, and said a few words from time to time, he didn't care about being so close to him, it seemed that he really just regarded himself as a thing to keep warm.

Gu Lin's whole body was huddled in his arms, but her body gradually became hot.

Xu Mo moved slightly, his jaw touched Gu Lin's forehead, and his right shoulder was against her face, and he suddenly felt that her forehead, face and exhaled breath were all hot, and he was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong with you?"

This sentence came out of her mouth, and then she noticed that her heart was beating rapidly, and after a little thought, she guessed the reason, so she was so, obviously because she was too nervous, and under the excitement, the energy consumption in her body accelerated even more.

"I... I'm fine. Gu Lin whispered back.

Xu Mo shook his head secretly, he mastered static breathing, and he had a deep understanding of the energy consumption of the human body, thinking: She can't last long if she goes on like this.

But for a while, he couldn't think of any way to comfort her and relieve the tension in her heart.

"Uncle, I'm so hungry, let's look again and see if we can find something to eat. Gu Ling's body was a little warmer, and he struggled to stand up from Xu Mo's arms, intending to look in the cave again to see if he could find something to eat.

This cave is not very big, and they have been trapped here for the past two days, and they don't know how many times they have searched for it, and where they have found anything to eat?

But when people are in a desperate situation, they can't give up hope.

Gu Ling stood up straight, took out his mobile phone, and took a picture in the cave again, looking inside and out, but still didn't find anything to eat.

She took her mobile phone, turned on the light, kept shining back and forth, shining on the stone wall, looked at the stone wall a few times, and couldn't help sighing.

There was a lot of moss growing on the stone wall, especially the closer you got to the water source, the more moss there was.

Gu Ling sighed, "If only it wasn't moss growing here, but fungus mushrooms." ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, but how could the fungus mushroom grow on the stone wall?

After a pause, he continued: "These mosses must not be eaten." ”

said so, but she was very hungry, so she couldn't help but reach out, grabbed a handful of moss in her hand, took a picture of it with her mobile phone, picked a handful of things that looked pleasing to the eye, and filled it into her mouth.

"Phew!Phew!" As soon as he filled his mouth, he couldn't help but spit it out, and ran to the edge of the waterhole to catch water from the rocks and rinse his mouth.

"How do you feel?" Xu Mo's heart moved, and he couldn't help but ask.

"Phew, uncle, you're still laughing at me!" Gu Ling grumbled as he spat the moss residue in his mouth.

In fact, Xu Mo didn't mean to laugh at her, Gu Ling's behavior just now reminded him of one thing, these mosses can't be eaten, but they definitely contain edible ingredients, if there is any way, these edible ingredients can be extracted, and the food problem can be solved.

Standing up from the ground at the moment, reaching out to touch the rock, and picking a handful of moss off, Gu Ling looked back and saw his movements, and hurriedly shouted: "Uncle, you can't eat it, I've tasted it, and it's useless for you to taste it again." ”

"Really?" Xu Mo replied to her casually, but still picked up a small pinch and filled it into his mouth.

Gu Ling muttered: "Uncle is crazy hungry, and he knows that he can't eat it, but he still has to eat it." As he spoke, he looked at Xu Mo, as if he was going to wait for him to spit it out.

Xu Mo's sense of taste is not many times stronger than Gu Ling, this small pinch of moss fills his mouth, as soon as he touches his tongue, he feels fishy, bitter and astringent, almost nauseated, and then his stomach turns, and his stomach gurgles, and he almost vomits.

He hurriedly calmed down and forcibly suppressed the feeling of vomiting.

The tongue turned and savored the taste of moss in the mouth, but after tasting it for a long time, except for the fishy, bitter, and astringent tastes, I couldn't taste anything else.

After all, there are too few edible ingredients in this moss.

Xu Mo tasted it for a long time, finally sighed, walked to the waterhole, spit out the moss in his mouth, rinsed his mouth, and thought: If I have a psychic sense of taste, then it will be good, maybe I can find edible ingredients from this moss.

During this time, Gu Ling kept looking at him, and when he saw that he finally spit out the moss, he said, "Uncle, I thought you were very hungry and would really eat it." ”

Xu Mo didn't speak, but he was thinking about the way to channel his sense of taste in his heart, these days, he has been exercising his sense of taste every day, and he feels that he has made great progress, and it seems that there is a possibility of breakthrough at any time, but he is always one step behind, and he has never been able to break through.

There was nothing urgent before, and I knew that as long as I cultivated slowly, I would be able to break through one day sooner or later, so I was not in a hurry at all, but now I can't do it, with the situation of the Gu sisters, it is inevitable to break through in advance. Otherwise, I'm afraid that they won't have to wait until they are rescued, and both of them will starve to death.

He thought about it for a moment, but for a moment he couldn't think of any good solution.

Suddenly, he heard Gu Ling said: "Sister, the uncle's people haven't dug the cave yet, save us from the city, it seems that in a short period of time, we won't want to get out of the city." Uncle is so hungry that he even wants to eat moss, sister, if this continues, the three of us will starve to death. ”

Gu Lin reached out and took her sister's hand, pulled her to sit down beside her, reached out and hugged her, and gently stroked her hair with her other hand, but did not speak, leaning against her sister, but not speaking.

Gu Ling then said: "Sister, for so many years, the two of us sisters have survived together. But the situation is different now than before, and we... We... 'M afraid... I can't stand it. ”

Gu Lin reached out and hugged her in his arms, and said in a low voice: "Xiao Ling, don't talk nonsense, let's... We're going to get through it. said so, but in his heart he didn't have much confidence after all.

Gu Ling shook his head and said, "Sister, I'm just afraid... 'M afraid... I can't accompany you in the future. ”

Gu Lin scolded softly, "What are you talking nonsense?"

Gu Ling didn't answer, and said to himself: "Mom and Dad died early, we sisters depend on each other, when I was a child, you always took care of me, let me, there was something delicious, I was reluctant to eat, left it for me to eat, I was bullied outside, and when I returned home, you always came to coax me and cry with me." When I was ten years old, the neighbor's Xiaofang beat me, I cried, but you also cried, and when he saw that both of us sisters were crying, his heart became weak, and he didn't dare to fight again, so he was scared away..."

She babbled a lot, and Gu Lin touched her heart and couldn't help crying quietly.

Gu Ling hugged his sister with his backhand, paused, and said, "Sister, you like Uncle Xu, anyone can see it, so you don't have to hide it." If this continues, all three of us will be starved to death, rather than all three of us die, it is better for me to die, after I die, you and Uncle Xu eat me, you can wait for rescue, and go out of here. ”

But her voice just fell. Gu Lin suddenly broke free from her embrace, and without thinking about it, she slammed into the stone wall. is clearly going to die by himself, and to fulfill Xu Mo and his sister.

"Sister, what are you doing?" Gu Ling shouted, and hurriedly reached out to pull his sister, but he didn't hold it, and his frightened voice changed.

Seeing Gu Lin's body hit the stone wall, he was about to die on the spot.

In the midst of the crisis, but seeing a figure flashing, blocking between Gu Lin and the stone wall, it was Xu Mo.

He heard the conversation between the Gu sisters and vaguely guessed that something was going to happen, so he saved Gu Lin in time. But he was also hit by her on the lower stomach, snorted in pain, and squatted down.
