Li Sinian slept for a long time this time, Fang Daichuan didn't have a watch, and he couldn't see the sky outside in the confined space, so he could only infer from his feeling that it had been more than two hours.
Fang Daichuan was afraid that Li Sinian would die if he fell asleep, and he would not be able to sleep well even if he was leaning on the stone wall. After a few minutes, he reached out to touch Li Sinian to make sure that his body was still warm, and then he tilted his head and squinted for a while.
Now that it's all over, Fang Daichuan would rather Li Sinian have a fever, and it's fine if he is stupid, than to reach out and feel his body and get cold. Let him spend the night alone in front of Li Sinian's corpse, and he felt that he would definitely kneel down. With his fragile heart, he really couldn't tell what he could do.
He thought about the time in his mind, and always felt that his antidote was just for Li Sinian. Can the shelf life of this antidote work? In Fang Daichuan's sleep, he was still touching the lid of the medicine bottle back and forth with his hands, and he was not at ease. If there was a difference of one and a half minutes, the bottle of antidote would be wasted if the person was gone, would it be a loss
Halfway through his sleep, he had a dream. He dreamed that he touched Li Sinian in the dark, and Li Sinian's body was already completely cold. He was completely panicked, and the other Li Sinian leaned against the stone wall with his arms folded, sneering and saying, "You idiot, look down yourself, which bottle of medicine did you inject into me?" He looked down and saw that the medicine bottle with the hourglass carved was still full, but the medicine bottle with the skull carved was already empty.
Fang Daichuan yelled in his dream, opened his eyes in horror, turned over and sat up.
Sitting up, he was still confused, his cheeks were hot, and the heat from his lower back was steaming to his forehead. He lowered his head and quickly looked at the medicine bottle in his hand, and checked it three times. The full bottle was a skull stopper.
"What are you looking for? Catching lice?" Fang Daichuan followed the sound, and Li Sinian stood supporting the stone wall, talking sarcastically and moving his limbs.
At that moment, Li Sinian's figure overlapped with his dream. Fang Daichuan never realized that Li Sinian, who was alive and kicking, was so cute even when he opened his mocking mouth. He jumped up without saying a word, and hugged Li Sinian. Li Sinian fell silent in an instant, his whole body was stiff, his hairs stood on end, and he looked like he was facing an enemy.
"You dare to scare me again!" Fang Daichuan recalled in his mind, after the death the next day, he stayed silent in the living room, how did Li Sinian slip into the room to threaten him, he imitated Li Sinian's tone, "You If you don’t want to live, don’t play jumping into the sea, anyway, I still have a bottle of poison here, I’ll keep it for you, if you don’t want to live, tell me, let’s not trouble others.”
Li Sinian slowly hugged him back, pinched Fang Daichuan's muscular arm, and the guard all over his body gradually softened. He smiled and said, "Then you can keep it for me."
The atmosphere became awkward again. Of course, Fang Daichuan might feel embarrassed by himself. Li Sinian was as usual, slowly groping for the stone wall.
Fang Daichuan also leaned over and touched it with his hands. The stone wall was wet and covered with moss, and there were also sporadic aquatic organisms clinging to the stone wall.
"What are you touching?" Fang Daichuan asked out of words.
Li Sinian picked out a barnacle and said: "This is the inner cavity of a huge reef. The sound of the pipe organ we heard outside probably came from this huge resonance cavity. The walls here are very wet and covered with moss , There are also many aquatic organisms parasitic here. I suspect that this place should have been filled with water, but the tide draws out the water with its huge force, forming a space that is sometimes dry and sometimes flooded. But the moss here is better than the barnacles. Much more, and that could free up a lot of time like that."
Fang Daichuan didn't understand, he shook his head in confusion.
"If it's not a special case for the two of us to come in today, this is indeed a regularly appearing and regularly enclosed space." Li Sinian frowned, "Then I very much doubt that my father has been here."
He stretched out his hand, and he held the golden star pendant firmly in his palm, explaining: "This is my mother's necklace, and it was given to her by my father to commemorate their meeting in the aurora and stars. I I played with it once when I was a child, almost swallowed it, and my dad beat me up, which is very impressive. After they separated, my father has always worn this women's necklace close to his body."
Fang Daichuan's heart skipped a beat. If it was discovered in the boss's villa, then he could still deceive himself, saying that there was hope of survival. As a result, it was caught in the crevices of the reefs on the seabed, and no matter how I thought about it, I could only type a huge two words - relic.
He was afraid that Li Sinian would be sad, so he quickly changed the topic and talked about something else: "I suddenly have a feeling, tell me, could the boss be among us? Originally, I had no other thoughts, but if you want to say This is a space where you can live temporarily, so the boss himself may not know about it. I suddenly thought of a detail, do you remember that we got a box of supplies on the fourth floor on the first night? But you also checked the next day After crossing the island, it turns out that there are vegetables behind the house, water in the lake, and even running water in the villa. Those supplies are completely unnecessary for us. But think about it, what if he prepared supplies for himself? ? What if he had planned from the beginning to use some means of feigning death to hide in this space?"
Fang Daichuan was just talking nonsense at first, in order to divert Li Sinian's attention from his father's relics, but the more he thought about it, the more reasonable he became, and he felt that he was simply a genius, and he could come up with ideas even if he guessed randomly.
"No survivors, have you ever seen it?! The person who has not checked the whole body of the body is the most suspicious! Except for the beer belly on the first night, oh, and I saw Du Chaosheng's body just now, the rest of them were all killed in front of everyone." A shot in the head cannot be faked. So now that I think about it, the beer belly and Du Chaosheng are the most suspicious!"
Li Sinian was obviously also taken away by him, he shook his head and said: "No, do you remember the clothes in the box? The clothes are one size fits all, not beer belly and Du Chaosheng, they can't wear them. It doesn't make sense to keep escape materials, and why not?" Keep the clothes you can't wear. And speaking of this, after I received this mission, I really haven't seen the boss from the beginning to the end. I don't know if it's male or female. I have come to the island several times, and it is also possible that other people have been to the island, know the secrets under the reef, and hide supplies."
As he spoke, he walked a few steps inside, and asked Fang Daichuan, "Do you have a lighter? Can you light it up and have a look? If he has been to this grotto, there will always be some clues."
Fang Daichuan obediently took out his pocket, and the remaining half pack of cigarettes had already been soaked badly, luckily the lighter was not lost. This lighter is a gift from a fan, it is an international brand, and its waterproof quality is very good. Fang Daichuan flicked the water droplets and turned the stone, and the little flame lit up tremblingly.
"It's best not to wait too long," Fang Daichuan said looking at Li Sinian, "If this is a sealed cave, you don't know when you can get out, and it will be troublesome if you run out of oxygen."
Li Sinian nodded: "Don't be afraid, if my judgment is correct, the tide will rise again tomorrow morning. When the tide rises and the cave is filled, the suction force will no longer exist. Let's take the opportunity to go out again." .”
As they talked, they walked in. The cave was in the shape of a gourd, with a large outside, and a smaller grotto connected to it inside.
There was nothing in the stone room outside, so Fang Daichuan lifted his feet and walked inside. The terrain inside was relatively low, and some water had accumulated. Fang Daichuan stepped on the puddle, and the shoes that had just been dried were wet again.
"Fuck you!" Fang Daichuan shouted angrily, stomping heavily on the dry ground.
There was a bang, as if he had kicked something, and he kicked his foot hard.
Fang Daichuan lowered his body suspiciously, raised the lighter, and shone it in front of him. He scolded: "What the hell—ah!!!"
Before he could complain, Fang Daichuan screamed in fright, jumped up, and the lighter in his hand fell freely to the puddle below. Li Sinian had quick eyesight and quick hands, and grabbed the lighter. He lit the fire again, looked to the ground, and saw a rotten skeleton sitting in the corner, staring straight at them with empty eye sockets.
The bugs hidden in the corpse were scattered by Fang Daichuan's roar.
A mouse sneaked in from nowhere, rustling past Fang Daichuan's feet, Fang Daichuan took three steps back.
"Stay away!" Fang Daichuan called Li Sinian, "How many years has this old corpse been so rotten? If you jump up and scratch your face, we will give it to you for nothing!"
But Li Sinian bent down and picked up a ring from beside the corpse.
Without saying a word, he blew on the water plants and dust on the ring, held it in front of the lighter and turned it slightly. The silver ring that has been oxidized and blackened can't see anything under the lighter.
Li Sinian rubbed it with his fingers to remove the mottled black oxide layer, and there were some traces on the inner ring of the ring. After careful identification, there seemed to be two letters engraved there: "L&F."
Li Sinian knelt down, wanting to touch the rotten skeleton, his fingers trembling slightly.
