Chapter 55 The Stone Room

"In the back mountain of Stone Village?" Miss Bai asked in surprise.

"Hmm..." I responded.

Although Miss Bai has a stronger memory than me, her sense of direction is not as good as mine. According to my judgment, we walked north along the "sewer". Judging from the distance, this should be the back mountain.

I can't think about anything now. I'm so thirsty that I'm about to bite out my own blood vessels and drink blood. When I hear the sound of water, a strong desire arises in my heart.

Miss Bai was also very thirsty. The two of them supported each other, walked softly, and followed the sound of water carefully. I felt that after turning a corner, the sound of water was close in front of me. I smelled the water vapor rushing towards my face, and my throat

He let out a low growl like a cry, and pulled Miss Bai towards him.

The water flowed down the rock wall and formed a narrow stream. I don't know where it went. The two of them lay down by the stream and drank a lot. The water was sweet and cool in the mouth, just like jade liquid and nectar. I was dreaming

I never thought that drinking water can give you the same enjoyment as taking drugs. Although I have never taken drugs, I think the pleasure is nothing more than this.

I drank until my belly was swollen and I couldn't drink anymore. I felt dizzy and drunk from drinking water. Thinking back to being buried under the landslide and escaping from death now, it felt like a lifetime ago. Ms. Bai and I hugged each other.

I cried and laughed, and it took a long time to calm down.

This process of life and death interdependence quickly made the two of us become close friends. We felt that there was no longer any barrier or grudge between us, only incomparable trust. Both of us seemed to have forgotten that we had said before about coming out from under the landslide.

Just make an agreement as ordinary friends. In other words, no one wants to think about it or mention it. Just hold each other together, listen to the sound of water, and feel each other's bodies and temperature. At this moment, there is no longer the lust.

Instead, it was replaced by a strong sense of dependence.

Because there was water in my stomach, I didn't feel hungry for a while. I don't know how long it took, but my body gradually began to regain its strength, and the thoughts that had been floating in the sky for a long time also came back.

"Huh? What are you doing?" Miss Bai asked.

"This broken watch killed people, so I threw it away." I took off the watch bitterly and said with a smile, "It's nothing to me. This damn thing caused a fairy-like girl like you to be buried. It's really

Hateful, it should be smashed into pieces..."

"Oh, don't!" Miss Bai said hurriedly, "I want it!"

I was stunned, "What do you want this broken watch for?"

Miss Bai said don't worry about it, just give it to me.

Miss Bai took the watch from my hand. In the darkness, I heard a "swishing" sound and felt her put it into her pocket. She moved very gently. I shook my head and thought to myself, women are really weird, with such a piece of cake.

The broken watch that almost killed both of us turned out to be like a treasure.

"Okay, let's go."

Miss Bai pushed me and slowly stood up.

"Where to go?" I was stunned.

"Find a way to get out." Miss Bai said softly, "What, you still want me to stay here with you for the rest of your life? You are so pretty..."

"That's not bad." I smiled, but felt a little disappointed for no reason.

After getting up, we began to distinguish the surrounding environment. Since there was no light, we could only touch it with our hands. After this touch, I couldn't help but be surprised. A large part of the cave we were in was actually dug by humans.

There are obvious traces of excavation on the stone wall.

The cave was deep and winding, and I was secretly speechless, thinking to myself, how much manpower and material resources would be needed to dig such a large cave?…

"A Leng."

"Um?"

"I think," Miss Bai said, "this should be the arsenal of the Eighth Route Army..."

"That's right." I patted my forehead, "It turns out that there is an exit leading to Stone Village, but didn't it say that this place was bombed?..."

I felt vaguely that something was wrong, so I walked around the cave and found no exit, only the 'sewer' we entered earlier.

"Forget it." I took a deep breath and said, "I'll use Qimen to push..."

"It won't work anymore." Miss Bai said, "During the second landslide, I was knocked out and now I can't estimate the time..."

"That's a bit difficult." I frowned and said, "The cave is so big, let's search again to see if there is an exit somewhere..."

"Don't be anxious, look for it slowly." Miss Bai said.

After searching around again, I still found nothing. I sat down panting, and Miss Bai couldn't walk anymore and leaned against me as if she was paralyzed.

"It seems we can't get out." I said, "It's better to die here than under that landslide..."

"Then let's just sit like this." Miss Bai seemed to be talking to Kongji, "A Leng, you know, after meeting Sister Qing, I discovered that there is something called friendship in this world. After meeting you..."

"how?"

Miss Bai fell silent, and I took a deep breath and waited quietly for the next step. At this moment, I suddenly felt a slight chill on my neck, as if someone blew a gentle breath behind me.

I was startled. Just as Miss Bai was about to say something else, she felt the tremor in my body and hurriedly changed her words and asked, "What's wrong?"

I turned around and looked into the darkness behind me.

"Don't be afraid, come with me."

In this way, I pulled Miss Bai to the mountain wall.

I slowly squatted down and felt a light stream of air blowing on my face. I touched it with my hand and found that, sure enough, there was a hole under the mountain wall here. We had looked for it before, but the hole was hidden underneath. If not

I sat there and felt the air blowing on my neck, but I couldn't notice it at all.

My heart was beating so hard, could this be the exit?

The hole was very low, about one meter wide, and the walls were not very regular. I tested it with my hands first, and felt that it was not dangerous, so I gritted my teeth and got in.

After drilling about four or five meters, the hole came to the end, and I realized that it was not an exit at all, but that I had entered another space.

"Yuxin, come here..."

After Miss Bai came in, the two of them poked around and felt that this was a very neat secret room. I was secretly surprised.

Suddenly, I touched a wall urn with an oil lamp and two flints inside. I tried to hit it, and sparks popped out with a 'scratching' sound. We have been in the dark for a long time, this kind of

The sudden appearance of the sparks was simply brighter than lightning, stinging my eyes and closing them suddenly.

At the same time, Miss Bai was heard screaming.

I hurriedly said, "Don't be afraid, it's me, I found the flint!"

"A Leng, be careful, there is a person lying on your left!..."

Human?...I suddenly jumped aside and struck the flint again. The moment sparks flashed, I saw a dead man lying on the ground.

"Don't be afraid, he's a dead man." I said.

I came to the wall urn again, quickly took out the oil lamp, and struck it with a flint. Unexpectedly, it lit on fire.

My eyes were stimulated by the light and shed tears. It took me a while to open them. When I looked through the light, I saw the dead man lying on his back. His face was pale and not rotten. He looked about thirty years old. He was wearing clothes.

Very trendy, probably not from the mountains.

I felt cold and thought, who is this person and why did he die here?

"A Leng, look here." Miss Bai said.

I looked over and saw that about four or five meters away from the dead man, there was a quilt, a travel bag, and food wrapped in several large plastic bags. I could vaguely distinguish it through the plastic bags, and it seemed to be something like cured meat.

There are also some local specialties from mountainous areas, as well as some hard and dry pasta that is easy to preserve. These few packages of food are enough for one person to eat for a month or two.

Suddenly my eyes lit up, "I know who this person is."

"Who?" Miss Bai asked.

"Before we came, he was the one who lied to the villagers that the mountain was going to collapse and asked them to move out."

"You mean..."

My thoughts were spinning quickly, "The reason why this man deceived the villagers out of the village was probably to facilitate his search for the 'sewer' leading into the cave..."

"It's possible." Miss Bai thought for a while and said, "This person took the villagers out of the village, searched house to house, and finally found the entrance to the 'sewer'..."

"Then he came in with food and drink," I continued.

The two people looked at each other with somewhat confused expressions, wondering what this person was doing living in this hellish place, and why was he dead?…

I am not afraid of dead people. I walked over and touched the man with my hand. He was as stiff as a piece of frozen meat. I opened his eyelids and looked at him. His pupils had turned turbid white. It looked like he had been dead for at least several years.

Damn it. The reason why it hasn't started to rot may be because there are less bacteria here. This man's expression is peaceful. Except for his blue face, he looks like he's asleep. After the examination, there are no external injuries on his body.
