Chapter 79 Meeting in a narrow road (9)

Having obtained a batch of supplies in vain, the three of us gained confidence in our hearts, and soon walked to the original T-shaped intersection.

Along the way, except for the corpse that was bitten to death just now, no other dead people were seen. It seems that the patriarch and his group escaped danger.

We turned into the channel of the stagnant water, the mine channel was relatively short, and quickly walked back to the place where we landed before.

This time with a torch, I can see more clearly. I can see that the area of ​​this place is not big, and the surrounding soil layer is full of huge jade ore raw stones, which are soaked by the surrounding water vapor.

The sound of rumbling underground water came from the crack not far away, everything was the same as before, and there was no trace of the patriarch and others.

There is no other way to this place. At this moment, we can be sure that the patriarch and others should have crossed the water to the opposite side, but we don't know if they were attacked by the old white-haired thief.

The doctor held up a torch to shine on the yellow and turbid water surface. There should be nothing strange in the water this time.

He gestured to go into the water, and then put the other end of the torch in his mouth.The things in the back basket are too heavy, and people will sink when carrying them into the water. Therefore, except for guns and torches, ropes and heavy fuel oil, we can only give up on the shore.

I reckon that if the patriarch and his group want to cross the water, they have to give up the things in the back baskets. It stands to reason that they should stay on the shore, but there is nothing on the shore. I wonder if they threw their things directly into the water. inside.

As soon as I finished guessing, Brother Wei immediately said, "No, I won't throw it away."

"why?"

"It's a waste of oil," he said.

I suddenly realized that this place is very poor. They probably took out all their money to prepare fuel for the cave. It is impossible to throw away the supplies because they need to cross the water. Most likely they are hidden somewhere. .

My heart moved, and I immediately pulled the torch out of the doctor's mouth, and walked to the groundwater crack next to me while I was not in the water.

Looking at it, I saw that on the side platform in the crack, there were several basket frames, all of which were materials.

"Not long ago, we were racking our brains on how to get supplies, but we didn't expect that all of them are ready-made now."

The doctor praised: "You have a quick mind, and you immediately thought of a place to hide things. It seems that they have not given up on this place, and they will come down in the future."

I said: "Forget it, let's not talk about them, Xiaoyou is still outside, let's get out as soon as we go out."

The doctor nodded, we walked to the edge of the water, and slowly entered the water with torches in our mouths.

I continued dog-planing, and thus came last.

Just after swimming not far from the shore, suddenly, there was a faint shout in the cave.

It's a woman's voice!

The voice was muffled, but we could hear it clearly. It seemed that it was not far away from us, but it was blocked by something.

The next row in this mine is full of men, and the only woman is Madman Liu who was taken away by the snake demon.

The swimming posture of the three of us stopped suddenly, and we looked at each other for a while.

After such a long delay, we all thought that Crazy Liu had been killed long ago, but we really didn't expect to hear her voice now.The doctor floated in the water, listened carefully, and finally pointed to the place where we entered the water, indicating that we were there.

I said: "But we just came from there, and we have gone all the way we can go, and there is no one at all."

Brother Wei reacted very quickly this time. As soon as I finished speaking, he shouted in a low voice: "Crack! We have never been to that crack in the groundwater!" It is to save people.

All of a sudden, I complained endlessly, thinking that the three of us were as tired as dogs after all the tossing, not to mention the physical injuries on our bodies, I also suffered internal injuries.

Now that we are remnants and defeated generals, if we rush back to save people at this time, isn't that hitting a stone with a pebble?

But Brother Wei has a strange attachment to Crazy Liu, maybe because he thinks Crazy Liu is a good mother, or maybe because he is grateful for the food that Crazy Liu made for him when he was a child, and the gentle care that only a woman can give him, Brother Wei turned around and swam I went back without hesitation.

I called out to him: "Brother Wei, don't be brave, we can't protect ourselves now!" After crossing this water area, the opposite is the territory of the old white-haired thief. Go save people again?

Brother Wei didn't give up, and said in a hoarse voice while swimming back, "I'll go, you go on your own."

I was anxious and angry, and said: "What do we think of us, can we leave you to take risks alone!" The doctor took off the torch in his mouth, floated on the spot, and said to me: "I'm afraid I will persuade you without him."

I wiped the water off my face and said, "Then what should I do?"

The doctor looked at me, was silent for a moment, and said, "I'll help him, how about you?"

I took a deep breath and said, "What else can I do? I want to die together and die together, and I want to live together!" I'm not a cruel person either. It was extremely painful, and she didn't know what kind of torture she was going through.

Now that Brother Wei has made up his mind and the doctor is following him with righteousness, I naturally can't be that cowardly person who slipped away alone, so I had to grit my teeth and swim to the shore again.

I was seriously injured internally, and it was like losing half my life when I swam ashore.

The doctor and Brother Wei had already reached the crack, holding torches to inspect it carefully. I decided to rest where I was, and they did this kind of probing.

In fact, due to the peculiar structure of the cracks, I can't see much when I stand outside and look at it. I saw all that should be seen not long ago.So the two doctors simply took out the rope, fixed one end of the rope on the rocks outside, and then the doctor tied the other end around his waist for safety, and walked sideways along the narrow side platform inside the crack. went in.

I sat by the water and saw the figure of the doctor disappearing into the crack. Curious, I got up, clutching my chest, and walked over to see: "How's the situation inside?"

After the doctor got in, he was about three meters away from us. Although the distance was not far, the place where he stood was very narrow, and if he didn't pay attention, he would step on the air.

He turned sideways, looked in with a torch, and exclaimed, "It's so big down here!"

I said, "Another cave?"

He said: "No, it's a crack that goes straight up and down. Standing in this position, you can hear a very loud sound. There should be a relatively large underground river under the crack." While speaking, the doctor motioned Brother Wei and me to give him another rope .

He folded the rope into two strands and tied them to the end and middle of the torch respectively, then he lifted the rope and lowered the torch slowly.

In this way, the flames will not burn the rope.

Jin Le stared intently at the situation below, but Brother Wei and I stood outside but couldn't see anything. While we were waiting for him to report the situation, Jin Le suddenly let out a loud cry, and the rope in his hand , as if being pulled severely by something below, it suddenly tightened.

He was unstable due to the tight rope, and he fell directly towards the dark crack.

"Jin Le!" I yelled in shock, and Brother Wei gasped, and the coiled safety rope kept loosening as the doctor fell.
