"Brother Xinwu, it's cold!"
Not only Huodun felt it, but Xin Wu also discovered that when he stood up and exposed his body to the air, he could clearly feel the cool breeze blowing, taking away precious body temperature. It was better to stay warm in the water. So he pulled the fire mound close to him and pressed it against his body. The two squatted back into the water together, only exposing the part above the neck, and kept warm with the water.
"Where are they? Where is Brother Baoshan?"
Huodun also began to care about the life and death of other people, especially Shi Baoshan, who was still competing with him and hunting for the treasure "Flint Brothers". The hair that was wetted by water was finally no longer so fluffy, but had enough moisture to stick tightly to his head. The inside was heated by body temperature, turning into a hair that was slowly evaporating. Like a thick hat of heat, it protects the little head and keeps thinking about new problems.
Xinwu opened his hands in the water and carefully felt the direction of the water flow. He took his hands out of the water and stretched them in the air, feeling the direction of the breeze. He was delighted to find that the direction of the wind and the water flow were the same!
In other words, you can follow the direction of the wind and find the exit!
At this time, the only direction that could guide them forward was the direction of the water and air flow. Xinwu decided to give it a try, which was better than sitting here and waiting for death.
One foot deep and one foot shallow, the two of them followed the direction of the wind in the dark and waded in the water for a long distance. The water level gradually dropped. What they stepped on was silt and some sticky biological organic matter. The mixed substance gave off bursts of unbearable stench. If it weren't for the relatively fresh wind flowing above, exchanging the air inside, both of them would have fainted from the smell.
The slightly shorter Huodun was closer to the ground and was more seriously injured by this gas. Although he had been trying hard to hold on, he was finally overcome by the force of the rising gastric juice, which made him vomit. He took it out and added a little more seasoning to the filth down there.
Xin Wu quickly lifted Huodun off the ground and let his head lie on one of his shoulders. He didn't care whether the dirty things that hadn't been vomited were flowing down his smooth upper body skin again. Fortunately, The cloth belt around his waist was quite strong, but after being soaked in water, it became even more difficult to open it. Even after all this hard work, it didn't fall off. Finally, he still had something left that didn't matter at all in the dark. " decent”.
"Just spit it out, it's okay!"
Xin Wu held Huodun tenderly with one hand and patted his back gently with the other, comforting the poor child.
After walking forward for a while, I don’t know how much time passed. Xin Wu felt that the soft mud-like ground under his feet disappeared. Some of the ground under his feet became a little bit harsh, and some of the ground looked like... It looks like it has been carefully tiled manually and is extremely smooth, but the edges must be curves and arcs, not straight lines.
"Ouch!"
Huodun was picked up and his big head was higher than Xinwu's head. He was hit by something unknown in the darkness, and the little guy couldn't help but scream out.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Let me rub it, there's no bleeding, right?"
Xin Wu quickly took a step back, put down the fire pier, and carefully explored his head. Fortunately, with the protection of such a thick layer of hair and the "self-contained helmet", it was only a slight touch. After all, the shock was greater than the actual damage, and the little guy's head was not injured.
"No, I just don't know what I encountered. It's too dark in here. It would be nice if there was some light."
Huodun muttered softly and rubbed the area on his head that had just been touched.
"Is it like this?"
It was not Xin Wu who answered. With this reply, a little bit of blue light swayed from the front and walked towards them, getting closer and closer.
"Brother Baoshan!"
Even though Shi Baoshan deliberately lowered his voice to imitate an adult's voice, Huo Dun heard it immediately.
"Light, the light you asked for, I brought it to you!"
With the atmosphere in the cave that is not dazzling but illuminated by the "Klein blue" light effect in the dark, under such a pure blue light source, the smooth and childish little faces become particularly like-like. A living sculpture standing up from a bath in the "Hero" blue and black inkwell.
"And what about me? Look, what's on my head?"
The little "sculpture" who said this had a long neck and stretched out proudly, trying to bring the "blue light" above his head to the position in front of the fire pit.
"Ma Shenshen! Haha, no matter how much you stretch, you're still not as tall as me!"
How could he not recognize Huo Dun, the fellow platoon member who held his little hand all the way! So, he reached out and touched it gently.
"Ouch, don't exert force, it hurts!"
It was only then that Huodun discovered that it was not a strange "blue flame" at all, but a swollen bump on top of Ma Shenshen's head after being hit. However, this bump was covered with a layer of The special material gave off a blue light, as if a small blue light was added to the top of his head.
"Haha! Your heads are all swollen like this, and you are bringing us 'light'! It hurts just by looking at it, hehehe..."
Huo Dun was still able to laugh when he was in such an embarrassing situation, which was really a big heart.
"That's right! Who applied this to you, and what kind of fluorescent powder is it?"
Xin Wu felt that this blue color looked familiar, but he couldn't figure out where he had seen it.
"Brother Xinwu, look at this!"
Shi Baoshan took off the cloth-style belt that had been tied tightly from his waist, and took out a few pieces of things that emitted the same blue light. There were two bare legs underneath, and under the blue light, they were outlined with Lean legs with small raw edges.
"It turns out it's them!"
Xin Wu remembered that these gems were exactly the sapphires he had pulled out from the mural walls when he asked Shibaoshan to return to the cave when he wanted to solve the problem of food consumption for the children after going down the mountain. Unexpectedly, This dark underground can be so beautiful, and it can also emit such pure and beautiful "Klein blue" light!
"But, how come you have this kind of blue color on your heads?"
Xin Wu couldn't imagine how the "fluorescent light bulbs" on these children's heads were "processed" in front of such painful beauty.
"Who else are you with? What happened just now? Did you see anyone else?"
The members of the "Blue Light" Sculpture Children's Troupe reunited in front of Xin Wu. Some were holding the blue light, and some were not. Everyone was chattering and rushing to talk together, making this reunion after a catastrophe full of joy.
"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, let me get some people first!"
