Lake took out the lighter and a clicking fire illuminated the cave where they were.

Xiang Qi asked: "Why didn't you take out the lighter earlier?"

"I can barely see a rough idea without a lighter. The ignition is just for your help."

With the fire, the wooden sticks that replaced the cane were not seen. Instead, they saw the bones and feces of many small animals on the ground. Xiang Qi couldn't help but frown. The cave was cool and wet, and it must be the best habitat for snakes. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but feel creepy.

"Even if I didn't find the wooden stick, I'll help you." Xiangqi came over and wrapped Lake's arm around his shoulder, put his other hand on his waist and said, "It smells so smelly here, let's go quickly."

"You should help me, I sprained my right foot." Lake shook his right hand holding the lighter. Under the faint flame, his smile was bright and gentle, and he looked in a good mood.

Xiang Qi took two steps to Lake's right and said, "How much liquefied gas is there?"

After the lighter is filled with oil, it will last for up to seven or eight minutes. However, I don’t know how long ago he was filled with air.

"Only half left."

This means that the exit must be found within three minutes, otherwise he will become blind again.

Xiang Qihuan held his left hand on Lake's left waist, and raised the lighter with his right hand. The continuous burning flame made the metal body of the lighter start to burn.

Lake seemed to see through his thoughts, and comforted the boy's shoulder on his arm, "Don't worry, with me here, we will definitely find an exit."

I hope so.

He nodded to Qiqi, said "Let's go", and then helped Lake limp to the other side of the cave.

The cave was not big, and it took less than two minutes to walk around, but I couldn't find any other openings to go out on the top of the cave.

In desperation, Xiang Qi said, "It seems that we have to go out of the hole that fell. This way, you wait for me below. I will climb up to find the rope first, and then hang you up when I come back."

"Wait," Lake seemed to have something under his feet and said to Xiang Qi: "Extinguish the fire first."

"What's wrong?"

Although Xiang Qi was not clear, he still closed the metal cover as he said. Following Lake's sight, he saw a faint light at his feet passing through the cracked gap in the cave wall. However, the color of the light was faintly green, unlike the sunlight shining from outside the cave. Both of them felt strange about this. They squatted down and looked carefully. They saw a crack on the wall of the cave at their feet, which allowed a person to pass sideways.

Xiang Qi hesitated and looked at the wet ground in the cave, and finally said, "I'll go in and take a look."

Although the fifteen-year-old boy has grown to 1.7 meters tall, he is considered "petty" compared to Lake, who is 1.9 meters tall.

Lake nodded and said, "Be careful."

Xiang Qi lay down sideways and clearly felt the cool air flowing from his side. He stepped on the ground with his feet, and his head and body drilled into the gap. He didn't expect that the soil in the gap was soft, and he fell down with a light touch of his shoulders and back. Xiang Qi ummed in pain and turned around and fell down quickly. The falling soil almost buried him alive.

Seeing that he was strange, Lake grabbed the boy's feet and pulled the person out.

"What's wrong?"

Xiang Qi spit out the soil in his mouth and patted off the soil on his body, saying, "The soil here is very loose and I was buried accidentally."

"But this gap has become much bigger by your drill, and maybe I can pass it too. Otherwise, you stay here and I will go in and take a look."

Xiang Qi shook his head and said, "This passage seems a bit long. Otherwise, if you are behind me, if I encounter anything in front of me, you can drag me back."

The wind through the gap became stronger, and the soil that had just fallen was swept in.

The two of them shuttled through the slit one in front and one behind, and the gap was only one or two meters into the entrance, and they could crawl through all their limbs.

The closer they get to the light source, the stronger the wind is, and they even hear the sound of airflow whistling by.

"The gap in front has narrowed again, and we must crawl forward."

Xiang Qi said in front, but because he was against the wind, he only heard Lake ask loudly behind him: "What did you say?"

Xiang Qi had no choice but to lie down, point his hand at the slit in front of him and ask the other party to look at him. Then, just as he stood up and continued to move forward, Lake suddenly crawled over and pressed his palm against his back.

"Wait a moment."

Lake crawled to Xiangqi's side, and because the cave was narrow, he had to lie down. The hand he had just put on Xiangqi's back waist had not been removed, and now half of his body was lowered and pressed on him.

"I feel that the light and the wind are a little weird. Don't go out rashly no matter what you see. You have to discuss with me before you can make an action. Do you know?"

Xiang Qi has never been so intimate with anyone. When the other party attached to his ears and spoke, he couldn't help but feel a little confused. He subconsciously shrank aside and looked at the face that was too elegant. For a moment, he even felt that this person was not an ordinary person in the world. No wonder those women flocked to him. It's a pity that this person is not dedicated to his affection, and he should be the type of playboy. However, people should not behave like a person. He is surrounded by countless beauties, but in fact, there is no one who is interested. He is still alone in his thirties. His grandfather would have been talking about this in the early years, but as his only grandson grew up day by day, he gradually turned a blind eye to the marriage of his eldest son.

"Children, what are you thinking? You didn't respond when you talk to you." Lake said, and his forehead gently hit his head, and Xiang Qi came to his senses.

"knew."

Xiang Qi was eager to climb away from Lake, but Lake reached out to block him like a prank, and asked with a smile: "You seem to be afraid of me."

Where can I start?

Xiang Qi saw that the other party seemed to be teasing a girl, and was stunned, and then explained seriously: "I said that I have accepted Eastern culture since I was a child. I am not afraid of you, but I am not used to being too close to people and do not like to have physical contact with people who are not related to or not."

"Isn't it because I'm so handsome that you feel shy?"

"Uncle, I got the wrong partner, I'll take care of you." Xiang Qi threw an idiot look at the other party, pushed the other party's arm away, and crawled away.

Lake stumbled behind him, "It's right to call me brother? What uncle, do I look that old?"

The two crawled in the narrow gap like caterpillars for a long time, and finally arrived at the end of the gap.

Only then did Xiang Qi see clearly that there was a small open space three feet square in front of him, with a green arched mirror of equal length placed on the open space, and there was nothing else.

Xiang Qi looked at the mirror carefully and felt that this thing was not a mirror, but an arch, with green light flowing on its surface, and the air sucked in formed a dazzling vortex in the middle of the arch, and the faint green light shone out from the door, carrying an extremely strange and dangerous atmosphere.

Lake asked behind, "Why don't you move?"

"It's over."

However, the sound was swept into the green vortex by the wind, and Lake could not hear him clearly, "What did you say?"

Xiang Qi had to turn around and shout loudly into the slit: "It's over."

Lake then barely heard it clearly and asked again: "What's going on over there?"

Xiang Qi told the things he saw, but one of them was in the upper wind and the other was in the lower wind. The people in the upper wind spoke effortlessly, and the shouting at the lower wind broke through the throat and the other couldn't hear clearly. Xiang Qi was angry and planned to simply go out and make room for Lake to see enough.

However, as soon as he was about to move forward, the person behind him grabbed his feet. Then he heard Lake say, "Don't act rashly." After speaking, he rushed Xiang Qi's body without saying a word.

Xiang Qi was speechless. The space here was lower than the place just now. It was really barely enough to stuff such a big guy into it. The rubbed slag was swept into the green vortex with the gust of wind. However, he was in a hurry and Lake was so hard that he had to endure it. He stretched out his arms and tried to lower his body as much as possible. The other party was like a tank weighing 70 to 80 tons and crushed it directly, and even breathing was very difficult.

"Hurry up! I'm dying, my ribs are about to break."

Lake smiled and said, "You are a boy, you are not that delicate." His long arms looked like they had nowhere to put them, so he simply stretched them out and folded them on Xiang Qi's arms.

Xiang Qi shook it away in disgust, and Lake folded it up again with thick face, put his palms on the back of his hand, and ten fingers fell into the gap between the other person's fingers, tightly holding the boy's palm.

Xiang Qi turned around angrily and stared at someone to scold: "Why are you like this? You do something on purpose even though you know what others hate. Isn't this asking for a beating?"

"Don't be so stingy, just get used to this kind of thing."

How could you get used to this kind of thing?

Xiang Qi was too lazy to argue with him and asked directly: "Did you see clearly? Do you plan to do this?"

Then Lake looked at the arch with green light and said in surprise: "What is that? It looks like a door. Where did the things that were rolled into the vortex fly?"

"You'll know if you go and take a look." Xiang Qi said in pain, wishing to be freed from the tank as soon as possible.

"What if it gets blown into the sea?"

"Isn't that just right to go out?"

Lake poked the boy's neck with his chin and said, "Everyone told you not to act recklessly. Will the survival rate in the vast ocean be higher than the one who went back the same way?"

The breath he spoke was blowing on his ears. Xiang Qidun felt goose bumps all over his body, and his head was swayed out, and he said impatiently: "It is impossible to fly 108,000 miles away, just swim back to the island." Finally, he couldn't bear it anymore and said angrily: "Even if he drowns, it's better than staying here."

"Who said that you are in blessings and don't know how to be blessed. I would rather stay like this for the rest of my life than soak in water."

"You're going to try it down there!" Xiang Qi was furious and said with a roar: "You are 100% mercury, right? You're so heavy!"

"Okay, OK, you're such a weak young master. Let's go out here first. But you must be careful not to be caught in alone."

Lake said slowly backed up, touching the boy's body with his hands intentionally or unintentionally.
