Indiana Jones

Chapter 291: A Silver Lining (06)

Si Heyi looked at it for a while before he realized that it should be because the flame was blocked by something and he couldn't see it, and the flame below was reflected on something on the other side. Obviously, the flame was not bright, otherwise Looking at it from their side, it wouldn't be so unrecognizable. If it weren't for Li Siming's sharp eyes, it would be difficult for them to notice this detail.

"It seems to be behind the stone over there." Li Siming said in a low voice, "The distance is about 50 meters. It's too dark to make an accurate judgment."

"There seems to be only one person," said the woodcutter.

"It's a bit weird, what is he doing? Why doesn't he even move?" Si Xuanyi felt that something was wrong.

"I don't know." Li Siming didn't know what to do in such a weird situation.

"Don't worry, let's see first." The woodcutter was the most calm.

It wasn't until this time that they realized that Zhao Chenggong hadn't moved, and the guy who checked again had actually fallen asleep.

"Let him sleep, old man, you sleep for a while too, we'll watch over here." Si Xuanyi said.

"It's strange to be able to sleep," said the woodcutter. "In this environment, only this heartless boy can sleep."

"I really don't know when I can leave this ghost place?" Li Siming showed a rare impatience, obviously he had had enough.

No one answered his question, and the others didn't know how to answer, let alone answer. Judging from their current situation, everything is still unknown. Whether it is life or death, they have to face it, because they have no way out. It's okay, this is the reality they face, no matter it's cruel or not, they have to bear it.

Suddenly, a flash of light flashed overhead, illuminating their surroundings in a strange way. Although it was not very bright, they got excited when they went there. It was lightning. They saw the sky, which meant that they came out. This is indeed true. Something to be excited about.

"It's great, it's great, it's great..." Si Xuanyi was so excited that he didn't know how to express his feelings. Although they also had such speculations before, there was no direct evidence after all.

"This is indeed good news. As long as we can wait until dawn, we will know where we are, and it will not be too late to think about countermeasures." Li Siming's tone was also slightly excited.

"There are still a few hours before dawn. Anything may happen in this ghostly place. It's better to be careful." The woodcutter poured cold water on them just in time.

"Nothing else, take turns to rest, let's recover first." Si Xuanyi's consideration was quite reasonable.

Another flash of lightning flashed by, and this time they saw more things in that brief flash, including the environment they were in. They seemed to be in a valley, but they could only see huge mountains The same black shadow, it is impossible to make more judgments about the specifics. After all, the flash of lightning is too short and not bright enough. In this flash, they saw the terrain in front of them. There are stones of different sizes everywhere, like a On the other side of the huge rocky beach, you can see a huge fountain. This is what spurted them out of the hole. The huge water column is several meters high, like a rumbling water cannon. This is also the only source of sound that can be heard here, but where they saw the fire, there was nothing but a few interlaced stones. Of course, they couldn't make an accurate judgment of what was behind the stones, because they couldn't see anything at all. Not far from their place, there was a depression formed by staggered boulders, which seemed to be much better than their place, so they immediately woke Zhao Chenggong to hide in that place.

This guy Zhao Chenggong slept so badly that he couldn't wake up no matter how he pushed it. Later, he was woken up by Li Siming pinching his nose. This guy actually said that he had a dream and fell into the water and almost drowned.

The depression under several boulders is indeed a good place to shelter. It feels much safer for people to shrink in and block the exit.

"Take turns to rest, each group sleeps for an hour, old man, you and Siming sleep first." Si Xuanyi patted Zhao Chenggong on the shoulder, "Let's stay in the first shift."

Zhao Chenggong yawned and didn't say anything. Although he was too sleepy, he also knew that he had slept for a while, so he couldn't refuse. It was so dark that he couldn't see anything. Under the circumstances, he fell asleep again. Under the monotonous darkness, he seemed to be unable to determine whether he was really awake, so he began to find something to say, in this way so that he would not fall asleep in a dazed state: "You said you would It won't rain?"

"Who knows..." Si Xuanyi looked at the darkness in front of him, he tried hard not to close his eyes, "Get down, hurry up, after the sunny day, what we need now is light, not rain, no matter what So at least we got out."

"This place is weird, I'm sure something touched me." It was obvious that Zhao Chenggong had lingering fears about what happened just now.

"In this place, we are relatively safer," Si Xuanyi seemed to feel a gust of wind blowing over, which seemed to be mixed with some smell, like the smell of rain, and it seemed that it was really going to rain.

Another flash of lightning flashed across the sky, and this time it was much brighter than the previous two times. In that instant flash, the two people were horrified to find that there seemed to be something moving around on the rocky beach in front of them. Crawling, but the light is too short for them to see clearly.

"Did you see it?" Zhao Chenggong has already begun to disbelieve his eyes, maybe because the scene is too horrifying, he chooses to escape from the bottom of his heart, but he can't convince himself to ignore it, this is an extremely complicated state of mind.

"I saw it." Si Xuanyi said in a deep voice, the nearest one was only ten meters away from us.

Suddenly, there was a crisp sound of stone collision not far away, which startled Zhao Chenggong.

"Don't worry about the stones I threw. If they can come out to wander around in this environment, it doesn't mean that these things don't rely on eyes." Si Xuanyi said.

"Should... how do you know?" Zhao Chenggong felt that his statement seemed unreliable.

"Guess..." Si Xuanyi said frankly, "Do you think there are other ways besides throwing stones?"

Zhao Chenggong was speechless. He really didn't know what to say, but he also understood that Si Xuanyi was right. Now they really had nothing but stones, so they could only throw stones to distract those things. There is still quite a long period of time before dawn, whether it can last until then is really unknown...
