Stranded on a Deserted Island, What to Do?

Chapter 118: There is something to talk about

Views:

The air in the cave is not turbid, probably because the original facilities are still in operation and the ventilation is very good. The passage has been detoured and extended downwards. Because of the goal, the two of them walked much faster than the last time they came in. It only took more than two hours to reach the place they explored last time.

There is another fork in the front, but unlike the ones encountered before, this time the small fork on the right was excavated from the wall on the right. Just as the two of them continued to walk towards the main passage, the spiritual body that had been following the two suddenly rushed up and wriggled towards the other path.

"Is it leading the way for us?"

Hua Mu was a little surprised.

"Let's follow along."

The other passage is very low and cramped, and the air is obviously not as well circulated as the main passage. The white pillow stopped Hua Mu and covered it with a damp cloth before moving on.

Hua Mu felt some chest tightness, and the lower and lower ceiling of the cave made her feel a little flustered and sweaty. The white pillow is completely hunched forward, looking very difficult.

The channel has a distinct slope, first up and then down. The white pillow quickly realized the significance of this passage—something might have happened in this section of the main passage, so such a small passage had to be excavated from the side wall later.

After fifty or sixty meters, even Hua Mu had to bend over to walk, and Bai Zhen could only squat with a basket on his back.

Hua Mu was holding the white pillow with one hand and holding the mountain wall with the other. As she was walking, she suddenly touched the touch that was clearly different from the rock, which shocked her.

"Wow, what is this!" She couldn't help screaming, and leaned against the white pillow.

The sentry immediately took a torch and lit it at it, and saw an off-white object exposed in the middle of the dark rock.

The white pillow immediately recognized these things, and hugged Hua Mu and said, "Don't be nervous, this should be the skeleton of an intelligent creature, and there is no danger."

Although not dangerous, it can greatly affect the ability of sentinels and guides. The bones of intelligent creatures are natural shielding materials for the spiritual body. Although there are better and cheaper artificial substitutes, in the past, most important facilities relied on the bones of intelligent creatures to ensure the safety of the facilities.

The white pillow finally understood the reason for the decline in perception - not only in the experimental base, but those people generously buried the bones of intelligent creatures in the entire mountain.

No, or this so-called mountain is man-made at all, which also explains why there is no trace of animal invasion in the middle part of the mountain.

Hua Mu was still in shock, "Why are there still skeletons of intelligent creatures in the mountains?!"

It scared her so much...

Bai Zhen saw that Hua Mu had been in this claustrophobic environment for a long time, and she was very nervous. She subconsciously kissed her forehead and reassured: "Miss, don't worry, no matter what happens, I will protect you."

what! Why suddenly kiss her!

Hua Mu was really distracted, a little shy and a little dissatisfied - she couldn't kiss her under a cloth, so angry!

It's just that the current situation can't allow her to be greasy and childish, and she said stubbornly: "Okay, okay, I'm not that timid, let's go out first."

Fortunately, the road was not long, and the two of them saw the exit after about a hundred meters. The exit was a lot higher than the ground, and Hua Mu almost fell without paying attention.

She was terrified all the way, and when the white pillow took her down from the hole, she was already in a cold sweat. Because he was nervous, he didn't even speak much, so he sat down as soon as he returned to the main aisle.

"I thought I was going to fall to my death!" She panted as she tore off the wet cloth that covered her, put down the white pillow, and took out a small mat for Hua Mu to use as a seat cushion.

"Miss, let's rest for a while."

"Okay, I'm just a little hungry." Hua Muba couldn't wait to rest, and while taking the torch in her hand, she said, "And it's too cold in here, I'm going to freeze to death."

The temperature in the cave was not high at all, at most ten degrees, Hua Mu was sweating again, and by this time he had already started to sneeze.

The white pillow hurriedly put the coat fabric all over Hua Mu, took out the heating pot and lit the charcoal and heated hot water. Hua Mu was shivering from the cold, and was held by the white pillow and roasted for a while before she gradually returned to her soul.

"Miss, are you feeling better?"

Hua Mu took a breath, nodded and said, "Much better, I didn't expect to be frozen in the tropics."

Letting go of the white pillow let her continue to burn the fire, and then lit a candle in the small lantern, the passage gradually lit up, and the two of them could see the surrounding situation more clearly.

This is very different from the cave where the two walked before. Although the walls of the cave are still in the texture of rocks, some metal texture materials have been exposed on the top of the cave, and there are obvious light strips inlaid on them.

After replacing the torch, White Pillow looked around by the light of the fire, and soon found the reason for the opening of this small passage - the main passage was blocked by a huge metal door.

The white pillow checked a little, and the hot water was already boiled. Hua Mu put the sago and dry goods in the pot, and a strong fragrance spread out after a while.

Delicious food really makes people feel better, Hua Mu took a deep breath, and the original nervousness was relieved a lot.

Luna and Hattie were around, as if they were grooming the spirit body. Hua Mu ignored them and greeted Bai Zhen to come over for dinner.

"Are we almost there?"

After eating the hot porridge, Hua Mu's body finally warmed up completely.

"This should be… "

Bai Zhen slowly drank the porridge, frowning lightly. Although things have gone smoothly so far, her expression has never been light.

Hua Mu patted her on the shoulder pretending to be relaxed, "Okay, so it's half done, isn't it good?"

"Um… "

The sentinel was gloomy and preoccupied, and the eldest lady didn't like it at all.

"White pillow."

"Huh? What's the matter, big... um!"

Hua Mu pouted and kissed him until she was out of breath before giving up.

The white pillow was caught off guard by the sudden kiss, and was dizzy for the first time.

"Big, big lady..."

Hua Mu wiped his mouth proudly, showing a proud face.

"Well, this time I won!"

"This… "

Bai Zhen couldn't understand what she was talking about, and her face flushed with shame.

"Every time you bully me because of your lung capacity, this time won't work, right?"

"I do not have… "

"Hmph, I'll tell you if you have it. Miss Ben has already discovered that you are actually super dishonest. You hide everything from me and think carefully."

"… Miss."

"It's all here, you can always tell me what you want to confirm?"

As smart as a flower, as long as she becomes suspicious, Bai Zhen never feels that she can hide it from her.

"Miss, you should have guessed it already?"

Hua Mu pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "Since you understand that I have already guessed it, what are you afraid of now? Why don't you hurry up and make a real move?"

Having said that, I really don't know where to start. The white pillow hesitated for a while, and finally said slowly: "Before I woke up at the age of twelve, I always thought I was just an ordinary orphan, but after I was sent to the tower, I began to understand something. I understand that I am different from other people, and also Beginning to understand that the impact of these differences is likely to be more than just me.”

"Later, I learned about the genetic modification program and found out why I was different from others. I was not born through the normal route at all, and this is the only possible explanation for my abnormality."

"I've investigated a lot over the years, but before the truth... I backed away. Miss, I'm not what you think I am."

Neither integrity nor courage.

"Do you know that I think you are that kind of person again?" Hua Mu was a little angry, and Bai Zhen always had the ability to make her angry, "I have never been disappointed in you, even now. Do you think I like you? Is it because of your background, or something else?"

Leaving aside the sentinel's feelings for her for the time being, only the sentinel's face and body... Ah, she never regrets liking the white pillow!

"I know you're not that kind of person, miss, it's just..."

It's just that after all, there are too many uncertain factors in such an identity. Even if she lived the same life as a normal sentinel for the first two decades, what will happen in the future

She couldn't be sure.

The most important thing is that this incident made her recognize her cowardice and cowardice, and she was afraid that such herself would hurt Hua Mu.

This time, she was determined to come and investigate, she hoped for change and redemption.

"There's nothing but, in my opinion, the most annoying thing about you is that everything is stuffed in your heart. Can't I give you confidence, can't I be your support and support? Obviously... We are now the most intimate People. You may not have parents, but now you have a family.”

Embarrassed like a flower, being able to say so many thoughts in one breath is also a decision made after thinking for many days. She may not be able to do anything for the white pillow substantively, nor can she change the past, but at least she can't misunderstand the white pillow because of the so-called self-esteem and shame.

She wants to let the other party understand that what she cares about is only herself; let her know that what she likes is only her; she also wants to let her fully understand her determination - this is already the case, and the white pillow can't get rid of it. drop her.

Bai Zhen smiled, as if relieved, and as if he had expected it.

"I know you're going to say this, but I don't know why you're still scared. Miss, what you're going to see next will definitely not be so beautiful, so please prepare yourself mentally."

Hua Mu looked unconcerned and patted her chest, "This lady is also someone who has experienced strong winds and waves, how can she be so vulnerable!"

The two took a short rest, tidied up their things, and then moved on.
