Chapter 747 Escape in panic
After Yao Qianjin finished speaking, Xiaolan and Yang Chunyan were both worried, and their worries were palpable.
"Sister Xiaolan, they haven't come out for so long, will they be okay?" Yang Chunyan grabbed Xiaolan's hand.
"They are all very skilled, they should be fine!" Xiaolan comforted Yang Chunyan.
"Qianjin, I'll go in to find them. You stay at the entrance of the cave. If none of us come out by the time, you can go find reinforcements according to Brother Xizi's arrangements!" Xiaolan was so anxious that she exchanged a few words with Yao Qianjin before preparing to enter the cave.
"Doctor Che, how can we let you go in and take risks? I think you should stay at the entrance of the cave. I'll go in to find the director and the others!" Yao Qianjin stopped Xiaolan.
"I am a doctor. If any of them are injured, I can handle it in time. You should stay outside!" Xiaolan shook her head and said.
The two argued for a while, and finally Xiaolan convinced Yao Qianjin. .??.
"Chunyan, this place is quite dangerous. Follow your third brother and go home quickly, so that your uncle and aunt won't worry about you!" Xiaolan was ready to take the risk alone.
"My brother is still inside. How can I explain to my parents when I go back on my own? I'll go with you!" Yang Chunyan was firm.
"Then you and Qianjin are waiting outside!"
"I don't! I want to go in with you!"
…
Because time was tight, Xiaolan couldn't convince Yang Chunyan for a while, so she had to agree to Yang Chunyan. But the third brother was a passionate man who refused to let women and children go to danger. He said they wanted to go into the cave together, but Xiaolan couldn't win over him, so she had to
He also agreed, and Tong Hao was not to be outdone. Without waiting for Xiaolan's consent, he dived into the cave.
"Doctor Che, this cave is very weird. After you go in, leave marks along the way. If you can't, just go back the same way!" Yao Qianjin shouted to Xiaolan who was about to enter the cave.
"Don't worry!" Xiaolan waved her hand back without looking back.
The four of Xiaolan entered the cave. The cave was cold and dark, much lower than the temperature outside. Xiaolan couldn't help but shudder.
Tong Hao had been in and out of caves, so he volunteered to walk in front. The flashlights in the hands of the four of them were turned on at the same time, shining a bright light in the dark cave.
Xiaolan and Yang Chunyan shouted the names of Cui Xi and Yang Chunlei while groping forward, while Tong Hao was concerned about the safety of Hu Laoqi, so he also shouted to Hu Laoqi at the top of his voice.
Everyone soon encountered the first fork in the road, and Tong Hao said without hesitation: "Take the road on the left!"
"How are you so sure?" Yang Chunyan asked curiously.
"I am born with a good sense of direction. Even in the big forests in the mountains, I can tell the difference between east, west, north and south. I know the road accurately! When we passed through the cave last time, I took a special look every time we passed the fork in the road.
, I found that whenever there is a fork in the road, take the left!" Tong Hao said confidently.
"What if there are more than two roads?" Xiaolan asked Tong Hao.
Tong Hao scratched his head and said: "If there are three forks in the road, I can probably tell which way to go, but if there are more, I will be choked!"
"It's not easy for you to do this at such a young age!" Third Brother said, touching Tong Hao's head.
Everyone listened to Tong Hao's advice and continued to move forward along the narrow and rugged path on the left.
On the next journey, we encountered several two-way forks and three-way forks. Each time we followed Tong Hao's instructions and went smoothly, but then we ran into trouble.
"Aunt Xiaolan, I really can't tell which way to go!" She looked at the points.
It was an intersection with five directions. Tong Hao looked at it for a long time and was still not sure which way was the right way.
The three adults discussed it for a while, but none of them could confirm the correct direction.
"Sister Xiaolan, what should I do?" Yang Chunyan asked Xiaolan.
"I think we can only try to walk through the middle road first. If it doesn't work, we can go back and take other roads. Although this is a waste of time, we have no other choice but to use this stupid method!
Xiaolan said with a frown.
Others had no other good suggestions, so in the end they could only follow Xiaolan's method and choose the middle path to move on.
Half an hour later, Tong Hao looked at the cave that was getting narrower and narrower, with the terrain gradually rising and only big enough for one person to bend down and barely pass through, and shouted: "We'd better not leave, I'm sure this is definitely not the road I have walked before!
"
"Then let's go back quickly!" Yang Chunyan said breathlessly.
Xiaolan nodded, and several people started to turn around and go back.
Several people walked for a long time but still did not reach the fork in the five-way road.
"Logically, after walking for so long, we should have returned to the crossroads of the Five Roads. Why haven't we arrived yet?" The third brother felt that something was wrong.
"Yes, after we passed the five-way intersection, we passed several two-way intersections. We always went to the left. Let's go to the right when we go back. We shouldn't make a mistake!" Yang Chunyan frowned and said.
Xiaolan also felt something was wrong, but she just didn't know what went wrong.
"It's broken, we're going to be in trouble now!" At this time, Tong Hao's scream suddenly came.
"What's wrong, Tong Hao?" Xiaolan was surprised.
"We encountered a ghost hitting the wall, we are back again!" Tong Hao pointed at the place illuminated by the flashlight and shouted.
Xiaolan took a closer look and was stunned!
"Although the other roads are difficult to walk, the terrain has not risen significantly. It seems that Tong Hao is right. We are back to the road we left before!" The third brother said frustratedly.
"Perhaps we made the wrong move in our hurry, or should we go slower this time?" Yang Chunyan suggested.
"You must be on the right track!" Tong Hao shook his head and said firmly.
"What should we do? We can't take this narrow road, right?" Yang Chunyan was also very frustrated.
"What does it smell like? Why is it so fishy and smelly?" The third brother sniffed hard for a few times and said with a frown.
Xiaolan also smelled the fishy smell, so she used a flashlight to shine everywhere.
"Snakes! Why are there so many snakes?" Under the flashlight, Yang Chunyan discovered densely packed snakes crawling toward where they were staying from a short distance away.
"I'm most afraid of this thing!" Yang Chunyan's face was pale, her legs were weak, and she almost collapsed to the ground.
"What the hell is this place? Why are there so many disgusting things!" The third brother has trypophobia. Seeing so many snakes snaking around, his face became paler.
Xiaolan has been a tomboy since she was a child. Although she is not afraid of snakes, so many snakes gathered together made her scalp numb and she took a few steps back unconsciously.
"Stop talking and run!" Tong Hao was frightened as he saw the snakes getting closer and closer. He shouted and ran towards the cave where the terrain was rising.
The way back was blocked by a group of snakes. Everyone had no choice but to bite the bullet and flee in a hurry after Tong Hao.
As the terrain rose, the cave became increasingly narrow and difficult to navigate. In the end, everyone almost had to crawl on the ground to pass. It became more and more difficult for the third brother, who was broad and strong, to pass. His body was scratched in many places by stones, and his blood was stained red.
