Water seepage in underground holes can be a big or small problem.
Especially without knowing the situation above, if there is a river or a lake with a large water storage capacity, water seepage may occur.
What's more, this underground cave has existed for more than a thousand years.
The internal structure can still remain so strong. During the excavation and construction, the problem of upper layer penetration must have been considered.
But after the message came from Bai Lu, Lin Yi suddenly felt that the water seepage above their position seemed a bit uncontrollable.
The water droplets above their heads fell, hitting the lightweight helmets of the three of them.
The sound became more and more coherent and urgent.
"Are we still going forward? Nothing will go wrong!"
Wang Qiang worriedly asked Lin Yi for his opinion.
Wukong began to behave a little abnormally at this moment, constantly adjusting his position and moving back and forth on Lin Yi's shoulders.
Lin Yi looked up at the top of his head.
An ominous premonition suddenly arose in my heart.
Just like the bomb hidden under the table, the countdown has reached the stage at this moment, and what is supposed to come will eventually come.
The stone that has been torturing their hearts is about to fall to the ground.
Before Lin Yi could make a judgment, Bai Lu's scream suddenly came from the mobile phone, and the voices of Jin Pengfei, Wu Jingshan, Qian Sheng and Xiao Liu beside him were in chaos.
"Ah! Third brother, catch Dr. Wu quickly"
"Why did the water suddenly become so strong? Master Liu, please hold my hand."
"Lulu, I didn't stop Dr. Wu, she slipped over to Big Brother and the others."
After the sounds of war and chaos, there was a rumble in the passage behind them, as if a train was about to pull out of the passage.
"What's going on up there?"
Wang Qiang pointed at the hand platform and shouted.
The sounds over there had been drowned by the roar of the water, and only a few sporadic shouts could be heard.
The three of them were just about to turn around and go back to see the situation, when a wall of surging water in the passage came overwhelmingly, completely sucking the three of them into it.
Everyone was knocked to pieces by this powerful current and could not stand at all. The eyes were dim and they could only vaguely distinguish the positions of a few headlights.
Lin Yi could only rely on instinct, reaching out to hold Wukong tightly in his arms. He held his breath, curled up to protect his body's vitals, and went with the flow.
Xiao Liu had just analyzed that their journey was basically downhill, and then it went deeper and deeper underground.
This huge flow of water didn't need any help at all. It only relied on the trend of the terrain to create huge potential energy, which could push them forward.
Fortunately, they all know the nature of water now. Even though the water is fierce, apart from choking on their saliva when they were first sucked in, they have now slowly adapted to it.
Everyone is like being thrown into a drum washing machine at this moment. Any resistance is in vain and they can only roll in the direction of the water flow.
Lin Yi could clearly feel that the speed of the water was constantly accelerating, and the terrain was constantly extending downwards.
After everyone was carried down a long slope by the water, the terrain changed and there was a short climb.
Immediately afterwards, the passage beneath him seemed to come to an abrupt end, and everyone seemed to be thrown out of an exit.
There was a strong feeling of weightlessness. Lin Yi opened his eyes and found that several of them had flown out of the hole. The surroundings were pitch black and nothing could be seen.
It can only be judged by feeling that it seems to be a huge circular area.
"Ah~~"
After everyone shouted, together with this strong stream of water, they fell from mid-air to the ground.
After falling hard and being suffocated in the water for so long, no one could stand up immediately.
They all bared their teeth and lay on the ground breathing heavily and moaning.
"Fuck him! Why do you feel like being flushed down the toilet? How are you? Are you okay?"
Wang Qiang has rough skin and thick flesh, so even if he fell from a height, it did not have much impact on him.
My whole body ached, I didn't know where it fell, and something on my back was hurting.
"Is everyone okay? If everything is okay, please let me know!"
Lin Yi lay on the ground. He checked himself first and made sure that there was no problem with the bones in his body. Then he slowly endured the pain and moved his muscles.
"Consultant Lin"
Less than two steps away from him, Wu Jingshan's weak voice came.
"Doctor Wu, are you okay?"
Lin Yi immediately turned on the headlight on his helmet and shined it in the direction of the sound.
Wu Jingshan was seen lying on the ground, her whole body was soaked and her face was pale.
"My leg seems to have been stabbed by something!"
Lin Yi shined the light on her lower body and suddenly discovered that her calf had been stabbed by a sharp object, leaving a large gash and the blood staining her trouser legs red.
What caused the injury to her leg was actually a rib stuck diagonally on the ground, with the tip standing upright like a sharp knife. No wonder it caused such a serious injury.
Lin Yi endured the severe pain in his body, crawled to her side, rummaged through Wu Jingshan's first aid kit, took out the iodine, and unscrewed the bottle cap.
He took out the surgical scissors and cut off Wu Jingshan's trousers, exposing her smooth calves.
She is as beautiful as jade, and he has no intention of admiring her now.
He carefully poured iodophor on the wound to disinfect it, then found a tourniquet and tied it on her thigh.
"Your injury requires stitches."
With that said, Lin Yi lowered his head and rummaged through her first aid bag for sewing equipment.
"Consultant Lin, it's better for me to do it myself." Wu Jingshan struggled to get up, but Lin Yi sternly stopped her.
"Lie down and don't move! The wound is on your calf. How can you sew it up with your body twisted?"
"Do you still know about surgical suturing?"
"Does this mean you don't trust my craftsmanship? Let me tell you this. When I was a child, I learned from my grandma how to put on shoe soles for two days. It was enough to sew your wound."
Wu Jingshan laughed out loud when she heard Lin Yi's joke.
"Are you still in the mood to joke at this time?"
"Then I can't cry, right? This injury is not fatal."
At this moment, other people also stood up one after another and gathered towards them. The wave of water just now came so violently and quickly that even their luggage was washed away.
They are the only ones who still have some light here.
"Teacher Wu, are you injured?"
Jin Pengfei helped Xiao Liu over.
The two of them were lucky enough to fall into a relatively soft open space, so nothing serious happened.
Qian Sheng and Bai Lu helped each other throughout the whole process, and there were no obvious injuries.
Looking at it this way, it seems that Wu Jingshan's injury is the most serious.
Wang Qiang suddenly reacted.
"Where is Old Wei? Where has Old Wei gone?"
Lin Yi took out a spare flashlight from his backpack and threw it to Wang Qiang.
The flashlight beam spread out and shone in the surroundings. Everyone's eyes widened and they remained speechless on the spot.
This huge circular area was actually filled with white bones. All kinds of corpses were piled up together. It was impossible to distinguish the species. It was like a mass graveyard.
Old Wei was lying not far from them, motionless, as if he had fainted. (End of chapter)
