Chapter 146
Gong Yingxian pulled the angry Ren Yi's body over, looked at his eyes and said, "Don't be excited, reduce oxygen consumption, we will not die here, I will definitely take you home."
Ren Yi closed his eyes and calmed down his emotions. Even though he was extremely angry, it was not the time to get angry. He nodded: "Calm down."
"We first find the ammonia leak point and plug it up."
Following the temperature difference and white smoke, the two of them quickly found the leaking pipe. All the pipes here are connected to the outside and can be destroyed by hard objects from the outside.
The two of them rummaged through the boxes and found something that could be used to block the leak. In the end, they only found toilet paper. They stuffed the toilet paper into the hole of the pipe, but it was quickly frozen and broken as soon as they touched it. So they could only use a large amount of tissue to block it, and temporarily deal with it. However, the gas was pervasive and a small amount of ammonia was still seeping into the computer room.
"Let's do it first, let's put Feilan on a high place."
Ren Yi walked to Gong Feilan, stuffed her hand into the pocket of her coat, and then checked that there was no gap on her face and whether there was exposed skin on her body. Fortunately, it was early spring and she was dressed tightly. After stuffing her collar, cuffs, trouser legs, socks and other places where gas might be inleted, the two stepped on the stool and put her on the top of the cabinet.
Most of the ammonia will accumulate and sink, so the higher the place, the safer and warmer it will be.
Ren Yi looked down at his empty call margin: "How much do you have left?"
Gong Yingxian glanced at it: "There are 90% more."
"I didn't have time to change the air bottle just now, so there wasn't much left. The air bottles of our two add up to be enough for us to use for twenty minutes at most."
If they cannot leave here within twenty minutes, their lives will be counted down. Once the ammonia is filled with a large amount of ammonia and there is no oxygen, they will not last long.
Gong Yingxian said: "You go block the pipe, I will find a way."
Ren Yi grabbed the toilet paper and continued to stuff it into the pipe. The closer he got to the ammonia leak, the colder he was. He was wearing gloves, and his hands were numb to the point of being frozen, but he still couldn't stop the more deadly poison gases that were leaking.
Gong Yingxian looked around in the computer room. He first rubbed the computer room door, and then searched the entire computer room, but didn't know what he was looking for.
"What are you looking for?"
"Find something useful." Gong Yingxian said, "Do you still remember how the door in the computer room is locked? Mechanical lock? Electronic lock?"
Ren Yi tried hard to recall: "It should be a mechanical lock." When they came, they were eager to find Gong Feilan as soon as possible, but they didn't pay much attention to the lock. Looking back now, it was a bit strange that such an important place was not locked, and they were confused when they were concerned.
Gong Yingxian handed over the three mobile fire extinguishers in the computer room to Ren Yi: "This is worth it." He was holding a tool box in his hand.
"No open flame ammonia will not burn."
"It's about to come."
Ren Yi stared at him: "You, what do you want to do?"
Gong Yingxian didn't say anything, but began to remove the things. He pulled out the wires from the console, peeled off the insulating coat, twisted the thin wires into thick strands, "Smashed the computer case and help me find a transformer."
"Oh." Ren Yi smashed and pried the chair with a pry, opened the case shell, pulled out a transformer and handed it over to Gong Yingxian.
Gong Yingxian directed again: "The shell of the clock on the wall is insulating plastic. I'll find a way to remove it for me. The handles of the two cabinets over there are copper, so I'll also remove it for me."
Ren Yi took out a hammer and other tools from the toolbox. He was very good at violently breaking and demolishing it. After fiddling for a while, he got it down.
He handed the thing to Gong Yingxian, looked at him lowering his head and didn't know what he was assembling, and asked, "What the hell are you doing?"
"Make a simple electric cutting machine. The copper door is not very thick. If you can break a small opening, you can stretch your hand out. I remember that there should be a latch outside."
Ren Yi frowned and said, "Isn't there any Mars?"
"Yes, there is a risk of burning or explosion. I have thought of several ways. To quickly destroy metals, you must use high temperatures. This is the smallest release of Mars. While the ammonia has not leaked too much, you will dilute the ammonia with water when I cut it."
Both of them knew exactly what Mars appeared in the room filled with ammonia, and now they could only hope that the ammonia concentration had not reached the limit of combustion or explosion. Ren Yan walked in a irritable manner for a few steps. He glanced at Gong Feilan, who was still unconscious, and then looked at the hope of life outside the wall. His heart was filled with anger and uneasiness. He grabbed the iron stool and smashed the stool legs towards a corner of the glass wall.
He thought he had tried his best, and only a slight crack was added to the glass.
"Stop smashing it, that's high-strength double-layer tempered glass." Gong Yingxian whispered, "Save some oxygen."
Ren Yi put down the stool dejectedly: "What else can I do?"
Gong Yingxian was silent for a moment: "Sit beside me."
Ren Yi's heart trembled slightly, and he obediently sat beside Gong Yingxian, staring silently, trying to look at the face he loved deeply through the tightly covered mask. Although, at this time, he could only see a pair of focused eyes, and he was reluctant to look away.
His air bottle is almost over. In another two or three minutes, they will have to use an air bottle to absorb oxygen in turn. By that time, it will be a luxury to say one more word.
Then, in another twenty minutes, they will face the challenge of life and death.
He deeply realized that if he didn't say some words now, he would probably not have the chance to say them in the future.
Originally, he planned to confess his love to Gong Yingxian on New Year's Eve. If it weren't for his father's affairs, what would happen between the two now? Maybe they were in a sweet love relationship, maybe they had parted ways. He didn't know that as long as it was an unknown, he would always have hope.
But if they die, there will be nothing left.
Ren Yi suddenly felt sad, his brain heated up, and his voice blurted out with trembling distorted words: "Ming Yingxian, I like you." Before he finished speaking, his eyes turned red in an instant. He thought that one day when he was about to say this, he must be fully prepared and repeatedly laying the foundation. It is best to test it in advance, predict how much success he had achieved, and then muster up the courage to find a ritual-like, somewhat romantic opportunity to solemnly reveal his long-hidden love.
But at this time, his heart was like a new bud that was eager to break through the ground. He had to see the sunshine at this moment, because this was buried in the abyss by the threat of death. The only remaining hope in his heart, if he died, let him express his love dignifiedly. He no longer wanted to cover it up, he no longer wanted to escape. He wanted to stand in the sun, look straight into the eyes of this person, and face his shameless desire and clean and pure feelings calmly.
Gong Yingxian was hit by lightning and froze. He turned his neck mechanically, stared at Ren Yi with wide eyes, his face full of shock.
Ren Yi looked at Gong Yingxian with vague tears. He had been in love with him for so long, and always thought that there should be thousands of words at this moment, but in fact, this sentence was too heavy, and it was more heavy than thousands of words, so he could not even post a word.
Gong Yingxian couldn't believe what he heard, and he thought he had hallucinated because he was inhaling poison gas.
It took him a long time to come to his senses. His face turned red and his handsome face was mixed with various emotions, which made it difficult to distinguish for a while.
Ren Yi was so nervous that he didn't dare to breathe that he could not see his answer from Gong Yingxian's face.
Gong Yingxian's expression finally condensed into anger, and he grabbed Ren Yi's collar.
Ren Yi's heart was mostly cold, so he simply took it aside and choked up and said, "You heard it right, I, I like you, whether you feel disgusting or not, I have always liked you very much, since a long time ago..."
"Shut up." Gong Yingxian's eyes also turned red, "You bastard, why are you talking about this now? Is this the fucking time?"
"We are all dying here, isn't it time?"
"No one will die here." Gong Yingxian stared at Ren Yi with gritted teeth, "I will never let you die here, you... why didn't you say it before? Since you didn't say it before, why didn't you just say it later."
Ren Yi's tears had already flowed down, but he didn't dare to take off his mask, so he couldn't wipe his tears. He felt very sad.
Gong Yingxian's tears were also circling in his eyes. He opened his mouth and remembered that their lives were still hanging on the line. The only thing he should focus on now was how to survive. He unzipped the rescue suit and took out a pure white envelope in his clothes for a long time. He threw it to Ren Yi, blushed and said, "Look at it yourself." Then he continued to lower his head and assemble the tools at hand.
Ren Yi was stunned for a moment, took the envelope in confusion, opened it, and inside it was a photo - a photo of the specimen of the valley.
Ren Yi forgot to be sad for a moment, and was confused: "What, what does it mean?"
Gong Yingxian looked up and became angry: "I can't even see this!"
"What can this tell?"
“…turn over.”
Ren Yi turned over the photo. It was Gong Yingxian's handwriting that said: It represents my heart.
Ren Yi felt that the oxygen concentration was decreasing, and his brain was a little lacking in oxygen, so he became even more confused. Or rather, he understood something vaguely, but he didn't dare to confirm it.
Gong Yingxian was originally waiting for Ren Yi's reaction nervously, but when he saw Ren Yi snatching the photo like a fool, he almost hit his face and said angrily: "The skull of the maned lion lizard is heart-shaped, and his tail is pointed at the heart like an arrow. This, you can't tell! You still have 5.2 vision!"
"…A single arrow pierces the heart?"
"I like you too! Yixinyi (lirium) intention! You are an idiot!" Gong Yingxian's face turned red, and she didn't know whether it was anxious, shy, or angry. His IQ of 157 was broken and he thought of this self-perfect, full of wisdom, and meaningful way to confess his feelings. But this idiot didn't even see it?!
Ren Yi stared at Gong Yingxian blankly.
Gong Yingxian quickly lowered her head and her ears were red.
Ren Yi finally reacted too much. He pinched the photo, cried and smiled and said, "You, you...I..." He couldn't believe what he heard. Gong Yingxian said he liked him, and Gong Yingxian said he liked him!
Gong Yingxian held back her tears: "Let's talk about it when you go out."
"Are you saying true? I..." Ren Yi's words stuck in his throat and could not speak. Yukiki's oxygen was exhausted.
Gong Yingxian noticed Ren Yi's strangeness and said, "Use mine."
Ren Yi pointed at himself with his fingers and pointed at him again, meaning to take turns to use it, and then removed the heavy air bottle from his body and began to hold his breath.
He had imagined many times what kind of scene would happen when he confessed to Gong Yingxian. Whether it was everyone happy or sad, he was ready. Now he got the answer he wanted most. He was simply floating in the air for the sentence "I like you too". This should have been the happiest and happiest moment in his life, but he could not laugh happily or exorcised his heart. He could not even say a redundant word, because from now on, oxygen is their life.
Ren Yi just looked at Gong Yingxian affectionately and sadly.
He had fantasized countless times that he could be in love with Gong Yingxian. Now that this dream has finally come true, they are about to die.
Sorry and joy are mixed.
They took turns inhaling oxygen and holding their breath. Ren Yan kept using toilet paper to block the pipes, and then kept turning back to Gong Yingxian. He watched Gong Yingxian use limited tools to make a simple electric cutting machine.
Ren Yi picked up a pen from the table, wrote it on the envelope, and then placed it in front of Gong Yingxian.
It says: I like you, I love you, if I can go out alive, I hope we will never be separated for the rest of our lives.
