Chapter 474: Chapter 474 Blocking the Way
If we try to leave now, that place, I believe, should already be enveloped.
“Big brother, I took a look, and now, outside is a vast expanse of white everywhere. As soon as we go out, we will definitely lose our sense of direction,”
Sure enough, they had just entered the cave and, in fact, had not even been inside for a minute when the mist slowly swallowed up everything around them.
“Alright, in that case, there’s no turning back for us now. Hurry up and pack all our gear,”
Although they didn’t know whether that thing would attack them and they also knew it was very valuable, under these circumstances, they still had to prioritize their lives.
The hunter naturally held onto the shotgun, while Hei Lang pulled out several handy tools from his bag and placed them in everyone’s hands.
“It’s the same old drill, let the oldest brother lead the way at the front, then I’ll follow from the back, and you two walk in the middle. This way, we can look after each other,”
“Hey, do you see that? There’s a rock wall here. We should stick to this wall as we walk; that will ensure that we are absolutely safe on this side,”
“Do you all find it strange? After we came in, we noticed that it was completely empty. If they were indeed here, shouldn’t we have noticed something by now?”
“Honestly, stop guessing. I’m turning on the bright flashlight now, and basically, we can see everything in the cave clear as day,”
Hei Lang seemed to be getting impatient, and he also knew that this was probably the most direct approach.
“No, remember you must not use the bright flashlight. Plus, this kind of bright light is the most likely way to alarm them. If they all attack at once, we won’t have anywhere to hide,”
The hunter immediately rejected his foolish idea.
Hei Lang simply nodded; he had actually just wanted to voice his discontent.
“Hei Lang, let me tell you, down here you must follow orders precisely. If you take any action on your own, it could bring danger to everyone’s lives. Do you understand?”
“Sure, I understand, big brother. Don’t worry, I won’t make any decisions rashly,”
“Older brother, do you mean to say that for now, our only option is to keep going down this path?”
“That’s right, just keep going down this road, and who knows how much farther we have to go forward?”
“Then there’s no other way; let’s just walk on and see,”
While talking, they continued to walk forward.
But the further they went, the more they could feel that the air in this place was becoming damper.
And even the sound of flowing water seemed to grow louder.
“Look, there’s a river here!”
At that moment, they suddenly came across a river, rapidly flowing right through this place.
Just looking at this river, it was indeed quite broad.
At the very least, it was probably twice as wide as a swimming pool.
“My goodness, this, this underground, could there be such a, such a big river?”
“Unless it’s an underground river.”
The hunter stood by and slowly said.
“An underground river, but as far as I know, underground rivers should only be visible when you’re about 30 meters beneath the surface. But are we that deep now?”
“When we were coming down just now, weren’t we continuously descending?”
“I, I really didn’t notice that.”
Lin Yi just frowned, realizing he hadn’t paid attention to that detail.
“If we were indeed continuously descending, then where have they arrived at now? No one knows,”
“I’m guessing we must have been going downwards and, without realizing it, we’re now deep underground.”
“So those things are hidden in the depths?”
“That’s also a possibility. I’m not sure of the specifics since I understood so little about them before,”
“Now there’s a river blocking our way, and if we try to continue forward, we simply can’t cross,”
“Hey, big brother, we’re almost out of water. Why don’t we refill a bit here?”
“Old brother, is that okay?”
“In principle, it should be fine, and given how deep this place is, I believe these river waters are likely protected,”
“No worries. Whether there’s contamination, we’ll know as soon as we see it,”
Ling’er stepped forward and pulled a small flashlight from her pocket.
The flashlight’s beam was very faint, so she gently shone it on the river’s surface.
Ling’er could see that the water was incredibly clear and could even occasionally spot some small fish swimming by.
“I see fish swimming down there,”
“Good, then if there are fish, that means the water should be safe. Come on, let’s fill all our containers with water,”
After saying this, they went over, took off their gear, and filled their water bottles to the brim.
In addition, they scooped up the water with their hands and drank their fill with much gusto.
“Really, this water is so sweet and cool,”
“Man, that feels good. I haven’t felt this way in a long time,”
“It’s true, after drinking it, I feel really comfortable on the inside,”
“This is like the well water from before. The more like well water it is, the sweeter it tastes. Anyway, I’ve been used to drinking this kind of water at home since early on,”
The hunter looked at them and knew that these city folks probably had never experienced all of this before.
“Older brother, aren’t you going to drink a little? It’s really good,”@@novelbin@@
After Lin Yi and the others finished drinking, they noticed the hunter had yet to move and was just filling his water bottle.
“I won’t drink now; the water at home is like this. Don’t worry; it should be fine. How about everyone? Are you done drinking?”
“Yeah, we’re done,”
“Good. Let’s make haste and think about how to get across from here,”
What do you think?
