Jiang Hui was startled and stepped back quickly. It was not that she regretted and did not want to save the man, but she knew that if the man was drowning, she could not easily step forward to help, otherwise she would be the one to suffer the consequences.
But it wouldn't be right for her to just stand there and watch, so she used the retractable rope to help the other person get out of the water.
Huan Xian was very close to the buckle and also helped. After a while, a head emerged from the water. The soft black hair drooped limply on the temples, and the face was covered with water droplets, looking miserable.
As soon as Zhou Xiuwen struggled forward, his face was full of ferocity.
Yes, the expression can really be described as ferocious, and it looks like he is holding his breath.
No, my friend, you are awake. Why didn't you respond just now? Jiang Hui couldn't help but grumble in his heart, but he quickly lent a hand, intending to use the rope to pull the other person up.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the other person's head emerged from the water and his mouth was able to speak, he immediately shouted, "Come and help me, I'm about to fall down."
Help, what help?! Didn't I bring your head up here? You should be able to breathe properly now. Could it be that you were injured in the rush of water
“The thing in my hand… pull it out first, it’s too heavy, I can’t help it.” The other person said breathlessly, with a complaining tone, but it was also obvious that the whole body below the shoulders and arms and elbows were trying hard to pull the thing under the water and refused to let go.
Perhaps the look on his face was too ferocious. Jiang Hui didn't even bother to ask him what he had caught that would make him risk drowning and cling to it, so he went up to help.
Huan Xian still hasn't gotten over his fear of water, so he can only sit on the shelf and do the hard labor of hook and loop. The only one who can really come forward to help is Jiang Hui.
She took out the retractable rope and helped Huan Xian install it on the wall at that end as a fulcrum, while she herself was responsible for diving underwater to find the thing that Zhou Xiuwen said had caused him to sink to the bottom.
You don't know until you dive underwater and you see a square box. It's black on the outside and I don't know what material it's made of. It's slightly reflective, but you can tell it's very heavy just by looking at its texture. I don't know what's inside.
Jiang Hui didn't want to stay in the water to study the problem, so he just put the box on and floated up.
Ten minutes later, Jiang Hui, Huan Xian and Zhou Xiuwen, all three of them were sitting in a row on a makeshift rack, all wet. Their legs were hanging down and the parts below their calves were soaked in water, but at least their whole bodies were out of the water.
Several people looked at each other, and they actually felt a little ridiculous, but also inexplicably relieved - for themselves and their teammates' survival.
The dark box had been roped up and was now suspended between two racks. To prevent it from falling, they used various methods to secure it with several layers of ropes horizontally and vertically.
After all the hard work, they all felt a little exhausted and had to stop and rest for a while.
As for the box... Let's open it later, since the things won't run away for now. What they don't want to admit is that they can't swim anymore - even if it's just two steps away. So let's just sit for a while.
"Is this the supply point? Why do I feel like we've been chased all the way since we came in? I don't know what they are doing. It's more tiring than outside. And where are the supplies?" Huan Xian could no longer maintain his indifferent look and complained expressionlessly.
Indeed, Jiang Hui also felt that they had gained nothing from staying at this supply point. In just a few hours, it was more troublesome than being outside. They had only managed to get a few resources, and they had to walk and consume them all the way.
The same thing happened with the simulated bra... I wonder if there's still a chance to recharge it? They don't have much hope for that now.
After this round of water, they felt even more uncertain.
Jiang Hui was also a little annoyed. He wrung his trouser legs, which were soaked and stinging his skin, but ultimately said nothing.
As for Zhou Xiuwen, he was still lying beside the shelf, his soul was elsewhere. It made me feel bad just looking at him.
Jiang Hui felt a little better. He called out to the other party a few times but got no response, so he just let him be and turned to Huan Xian who was in a better condition on the other side.
Their eyes fell on the box on the water.
Jiang Hui certainly wouldn't think that the box he fished out under such circumstances would be a piece of useless garbage, not to mention that it was so heavy. It looked wrong no matter how he looked at it.
After asking Zhou Xiuwen about his wishes, she and Huan Xian opened the box one by one, and then... she was almost blinded by the light.
Did they finally get lucky? Or did the organizers finally remember to give them some resources after they had worked so hard to play the escape room for so long? Did you finally remember that this place is called a "supply point" and want to fix the bug that there are no supply resources at all
Zhou Xiuwen was really strong. Everyone was knocked unconscious by the sudden flood, but he was the only one who remembered to grab something in his hands, and it was such a big box of treasures.
How did he know that this was the treasure in the box? He refused to let go even when he was about to be drowned. This reminded Jiang Hui of the times when he slipped to avoid attackers and the times when he and his companions found bargains while walking on the road.
It seems that those who are on the same path with each other are always lucky. Even if the process is bumpy, the end result is often just right, which makes people can't help but call them lucky people.
Jiang Hui felt as never before that this classmate Zhou had an inexplicable kind of luck. He was the kind of lucky player who had good luck all the time and could still get some benefits even when the storm hit him.
It's true that comparison makes one feel pissed. In the same dangerous situation, she could only get a base of nutrient solution, while others had a whole box of supply resources. She couldn't help but accept it.
No wonder it’s so heavy... Looking at the neatly stacked bullet packs inside, Jiang Hui and Huan Xian were stunned.
So if Zhou Xiuwen couldn't hold on and gave up, he would have missed the box. This was probably because the organizers specially found a heavy black wooden box instead of using a light and portable marching package.
It was the first time for them to find any supplies when they entered the supply point. It was too late to look for them underwater now, and they didn't know if there were any more.
Zhou Xiuwen seemed to have calmed down. He looked around and saw the bullets. He said with some surprise: "It's really good stuff. It's worth my effort to dig it out."
Jiang Hui glanced at Huan Xian next to him calmly. Seeing that he looked calm, he said to Zhou Xiuwen, "Mr. Zhou, you can divide it."
