In fact, Zhang Zhuxun was also very depressed. If he hadn't been carrying these bottles of oil, he and his brother wouldn't have been licking candied haws-flavored energy gel every day.
There are so many delicious foods in the space, but you can't eat them. Isn't it irritating?
Naturally, Huo Zhixing didn't know Zhang Shuxun's depression. He distributed the energy gel to Huo Xiaoli and the only other Huo family boy, and encouraged them in a low voice, "You heard what Mr. Yu said, since he said so If we follow him, we will definitely be able to get out."
As soon as Zhang Zhuxun raised his eyelids and looked over, he heard Huo Zhixing deliberately say in a voice that he could definitely hear: "A kind-hearted person like Mr. Yu will definitely not ignore us even for the sake of the family master. "
Zhang Zhu laughed at this and shook his head helplessly, "Everyone, take the time to rest. The terrain here is upward. I feel that if we walk a little further, we should be able to get close to the surface."
"If it doesn't work, I have other ways to get us out." Zhang Zhu asked.
"What can I do?" Another boy named Huo Xiaojiu has a calmer temper than Huo Xiaoli and is calmer in the current situation.
Zhang Shuxun made a fist with five fingers and then opened it, saying an onomatopoeia, "Bang! Explode, I brought explosives."
This method should not be used lightly unless absolutely necessary, because explosives cannot distinguish between friend and foe, and the heat generated by the explosion will attract more Milotuo.
After resting for half an hour, Zhang Zhuxun and his little brother opened the way and continued to follow the Jade Vein with the three little novices.
The road ahead was indeed on an upward trend as Zhang Zhuxun said, and rocks gradually began to appear around it. They were real mineral rocks, not jade veins disguised.
The air seemed to have become humid. The younger brother suddenly stopped and reached out to touch the stone walls on both sides. His fingertips were stained with some black water stains.
He whispered to Zhang Zhu, "Listen carefully, there is the sound of water."
Zhang Zhuoxun also heard the sound of water flowing not far away, thin and dense, and nodded, "It is indeed the sound of water. There is either a stream nearby, or it is raining outside, and the water is flowing through the soil. Seeped in."
When Huo Zhixing and the other two heard this, they suddenly became excited. They went closer to the stone wall to take a look, and found that there were water droplets seeping out from the stone wall closer to the top. They cheered happily, "The sound of water means hope. We have found a way out!" "
After shouting, Huo Xiaoli felt that his throat was extremely dry and hoarse, so he stretched out his hand to catch the water drops that fell from above, and soon a small puddle of water gathered in his palm. By some strange coincidence, he lowered his head to lick it to quench his thirst.
But Huo Zhixing quickly stopped him with quick eyes and hands, "What are you doing!"
Huo Xiaoli was startled, and when he came to his senses, he realized that his hands were in severe pain and the back of his neck was also a little sore.
Zhang Zhuxun and the others were staring at him with serious faces, "How are you? Are you awake?"
Huo Xiaoli was a little confused. When he looked down, he realized that his hands were full of blood, and the blood stains had flowed down his wrists to his elbows.
"I...what's going on?" Huo Xiaoli said with a confused look on his face.
Zhang Zhuxun took out the hemostatic gauze and Yunnan Baiyao from his backpack and asked Huo Zhixing to stop the stupid boy's bleeding first.
"The minerals here are a bit weird. You just licked it, and it was as if you were suddenly stunned. You tried to drill into the wall with your hands and feet. You couldn't stop it even by throwing and smashing it." Zhang Zhu pointed in front of him. There were two big blood stains on the wall, "Oh, by the way, you are still like a puppy, sticking out your tongue to suck and lick the dirty water on the stone wall. I have no choice but to knock you out."
After hearing this, Huo Xiaoli subconsciously looked at Huo Zhixing, and when he saw him nodding, he believed that he was actually hallucinating because he was poisoned after licking the water on the stone wall.
Huo Zhixing smiled and comforted him, "When we go out, ask the accompanying doctor to check it out for you. It should be a simple hallucinogenic poisoning, just like eating undercooked poisonous mushrooms. Find a place to sit down first and wait for me to give you After bandaging, let’s move on.”
Huo Xiaoli nodded and sat down with his knees bent. Then he realized that the feeling under his butt was wrong. He looked down and said, "Holy crap! Why is it wet here?"
Zhang Zhuan
She rolled her eyes, ignored him, tore apart the cloth cut from Huo Zhixing's body, gave half of it to the younger brother, and then carefully wiped the stains on the skull knife.
Huo Zhixing explained to him with a smile, "You have been asleep for more than an hour. Mr. Yu speculated that it must be raining outside. The rainwater seeped in along the cracks in the rocks and formed some small water flows on the ground. You just fell asleep." If you look carefully, you can see that you are sitting on a puddle of water."
"So that's it." Huo Xiaoli smiled naively.
After waking up from this passive sleep, the boy's previous energetic state returned.
"Brother Zhixing, just give me a break. Let's hurry up and get out of this hellish place as soon as possible."
Huo Xiaojiu opened an energy gel and stuffed it into his mouth, and said angrily: "Shut up and save some energy. If you hadn't delayed us, we might have gotten out of here."
Zhang Zhuoxun finished wiping the knife and put it back into the scabbard, "Okay, okay, stop chattering and walk more while you still have the strength. We have been trapped here for five days. Those people outside are afraid I’m going to get anxious.”

outside world.
On the second night when Zhang Zhu and others were trapped underground, Fatty and his men searched the mountain to no avail. At the urging of the Huo family, they could only go down the mountain temporarily and wait until dawn.
After that, for three or four days, the fat man led his people around the mountain looking for people. He transformed into a big angry lion, and anyone else could ignite his powder keg with just a word.
Mrs. Huo was calm at the beginning, but gradually became a little anxious.
She didn't know whether those people were buried underground, or whether they had found the entrance to the Zhang family's ancient building by accident. This guess made her feel anxious.
It happened that it rained heavily on the fourth night, the lake water swelled, and a landslide occurred not far away. The exploration work had to be put on hold, and all personnel evacuated to camp a little away from the lake.
The thunderstorm signal was also poor, and Huo Xiuxiu at the foot of the mountain lost contact with them.
Huo Xiangu knew that her time was short, and this time it would cost a lot of manpower and material resources. If she still couldn't find the Zhang family ancient building, everything she had done in the past ten years would be in vain.
"No!" Huo Xiangu gritted her teeth secretly, "I will never give up until the last moment, even if it means risking my life."
On the other side, the fat man was sitting at the door of the tent where the tent was set up, listening to the constant banging of the rain hitting the tarpaulin, his face full of melancholy, and he sighed.
"Damn, if I had known that Mother would be in this horrible situation, I would have gone into the water with Muyu and Menyou Ping. It would have been better than staying in this shabby tent and worrying."
Just as he was thinking about it, a dark shadow suddenly fell in front of his eyes.
"Old lady, please come over." Huo Zhizhi stood in front of him holding a black umbrella.
Now that the fat man saw something about the Huo family that didn't please his eyes, he blew out a puff of air from his nose and turned his eyes to ignore them.
Huo Zhizhi said patiently: "My old lady invites you to come over and discuss the matter of going up the mountain to find someone tomorrow."
When the fat man heard this, he looked at him, stood up, patted his butt, put away the folding stool, and cursed: "What the hell are you doing so early? I was so anxious that I thought of going to the toilet, so When you go up the mountain in the heavy rain, do you want to find someone or do you want to die?"
Huo Zhizhi remained silent.
"Come on, what nonsense are you talking to? It's like a special lady cutting off a gourd." The fat man returned to the tent, put down the small bench, and followed Huo Zhizhi to Mrs. Huo's tent.
Huo Xiangu was sitting on a chair, wrapped in a thick blanket, drinking cup after cup of herbal tea, but her complexion was not good.
When he saw the fat man coming in, he didn't say any unnecessary nonsense. He just said straight to the point: "No matter whether it stops raining tomorrow, I will send people up the mountain to search that part of the area that has not yet been explored."
The fat man looked at her and sneered, "Why? Did you go out of your way to inform the fat man personally?"
Huo Xiangu raised her eyelids and said, "If you want to go up the mountain with me, I won't stop you. If you don't want to go, no one will force you."
"Fat man has no time to talk nonsense with you right now. We agreed to go up to the mountain tomorrow, but don't change your mind then." The fat man said coldly.
road.
Huo Xiangu said calmly: "Of course not."
Although the rain did not stop on the second day, the intensity of the rain dropped sharply.
Fatty and the others went up the mountain in the drizzle, and this time Huo Zhizhi followed them.
The turf on the mountain was slippery and muddy. If you weren't careful, you would fall over. Everyone walked with trepidation.
Just before noon, the nearby mountains suddenly shook violently, and the birds living in the canopy of the trees began to cry and fly around with their wings flapping.
At first, everyone thought it was a mudslide and hurriedly climbed up the high slope ahead.
But after the aftershocks lasted for a few minutes, there was no movement.
The fat man sensed something was wrong and quickly asked Huo Zhizhi for a telescope to look into the mountain col in the distance.
He found that in the misty humidity, a large cloud of smoke was rising from the mountain col, as if someone had set the roots of the dead trees on fire.
"Wait a minute!" The fat man realized that there might be someone in the mountain col. He immediately thought that the violent vibration just now was caused by humans. He hurriedly threw the telescope back to Huo Zhizhi, pointed at it and shouted, "Quick, let's go quickly. Over there, there's smoke in that place, they've probably come out of the ground!"
When Huo Zhizhi heard this, he hurriedly asked the waiter to speed up and rush over there.
Just ten minutes ago.
Zhang Zhu and the others followed the sound of water flow and finally found a gleaming crack in the rock.
However, the crack was too narrow, less than a foot wide, and even if the body shrank, the head would not be able to get through.
Moreover, in this rock crevice exposed to the sky, the distance between Zhang Zhuoxun's and the others' location and the outside was at least two meters long, so hard digging would definitely not work.
Zhang Shuxun had no choice but to use his backpack to cover up, picked two slightly more lethal time bombs from the space, placed them on the edge of the rock crevice, and then counted down to detonate them.
This is the reason why the mountain shook violently just now.
A large arched hole with a width of two people was opened in the rock crevice. Zhang Zhuxun and the five men got out one after another and found that it was a cliff slope, surrounded by shrubs and groves as high as one person, but what made them even more surprised What shocked me was the huge old tree that stood in front of me. Half of it was dry and decayed, and the other half was lush and lush.
The ancient tree was covered with dense vines, and its thick root system extended in all directions, directly extending to the slope at the feet of Zhang Zhuxun and the others.
Zhang Zhuxun recalled the ancient tree blocking the entrance to the ancient building described in the original plot, and immediately associated it with the tree in front of him.
Several people slid down the slope, grabbed the vines and climbed to the trunk of the ancient tree.
Zhang Zhuoxun pulled out the short knife inserted in his combat boots and asked Huo Zhixing and the others to cut off the vines wrapped around the withered trunk. Sure enough, he found a gap in the back that could be passed sideways.
Zhang Zhuoxun jumped down, and his younger brother followed closely.
Huo Zhixing and the others were still looking nervously at the two people who jumped down, wondering why Zhang Zhuxun suddenly acted like this.
He got into the gap and crawled down for another five or six meters. The gap in front gradually widened, and there were obvious traces of man-made repairs and reinforcements. This also proved that Zhang Zhuxun's conjecture was correct.
With a hint of joy on his face, Zhang Shuxun turned around and said to the little brother who was following him: "This is obviously a man-made robbery hole. We may have found the entrance to the ancient building."
The little brother stretched out his hand, touched the dry rock wall, nodded, "Go back."
"Okay, this passage is still too narrow. Go back and tell Mrs. Huo to send someone to deal with it." Finally finding the entrance to the ancient building, Zhang Zhuoxun breathed a sigh of relief, and then looked at Wu Xiaoxie and the others. .
The two of them quickly returned the same way. Huo Zhixing and the other three were waiting outside with eager eyes. Seeing that the two of them finally emerged, they almost cried with joy. They quickly dropped the thick vines and pulled the two of them up.
"Looking at your expressions, could it be that you made some unexpected discovery?" Huo Zhixing asked doubtfully.
Zhang Zhuoxun smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "We have broken through the iron hooves and found no place. Another village is covered with dark flowers. Our mission is accomplished."
Huo Zhixing's eyes widened in disbelief, "You mean... you found the entrance?"
Zhang Zhuoxun chuckled, "Why are you lying to me? But six times is still a little less. If your old lady doesn't give me a commission increase, I will have suffered these five days in vain."
Huo Xiaoli was still a little stunned, "No, we've already found it? It's so easy... holy shit, it's not easy for such a special girl!"
Huo Xiaoli roared excitedly, and not long after the nearby birds settled down, they were startled by him and flew up again.
Huo Xiaozhu couldn't hide his happiness on his face, but he was still more rational, "Master Yu, I don't know how far away from the lake it is, and I can't find the direction in the jungle for a while. Why don't we light a fire? Let the smoke rise, so that when people down the mountain see the smoke, they will definitely think of us."
Zhang Zhuoxun snapped his fingers and said, "It's a good idea. There is ready firewood here, so just order it."
Huo Zhixing and the other three immediately took action, peeling away the outer layer of the ancient tree that had been soaked by rain, and lighting a fire with flint directly from inside the rotten hollow trunk.
The fire quickly grew bigger, and the thick smoke emitted by the burning, coupled with the water vapor evaporated from the moist tree bark outside, made the entire mountain col a vast expanse of white, like a Penglai cloud realm.
It's just a bit choking, bad review!
