Chapter 211 The fog is gradually dissipating (seven)

Xiang Qi first came out of the slit. As soon as his feet stepped into the three-foot-square open space, he suddenly felt a powerful adsorption force leading him to the green streaming arch. If his feet had not fought against each other on the ground, they would have been quickly swept into the vortex of the airflow.

Lake was bigger and had an injury to his right foot, so the movements coming out of the slit were much larger than Xiang Qi's. With his appearance, waves of dirt came towards him, and Xiang Qi looked at him with his head and face.

“Wow, what a strong wind.”

Lake hadn't finished speaking, suddenly his body staggered and hit the arch with green light. He grabbed Xiang Qi's collar in a hurry. However, his momentum was too strong. Moreover, the adsorption of the airflow vortex was too strong. Suddenly, Xiang Qi was pulled over. The two of them were swept into the center of the vortex on the arch, as if they had rolled hundreds of times in a drum washing machine. The body had no way to focus and could only go with the flow and let the airflow take them to an unknown place.

It was only a blink of an eye, but the two seemed to have experienced a long life. Even when they were spinning and listening, they were still spinning and dizzy.

Fortunately, they were not swept into the sea by the airflow, but fell on the cold mud. The two of them were tilted around each other. Lake was the first to recover. Seeing that the boy was still lying on his back, he came over to pat his cheeks.

The boy hummed in pain, rubbed his temples and sat up, forcibly suppressing the discomfort of dizziness and vomiting, and glared at Lake in the dark, thinking that this adult was completely unreliable, so he kept telling him not to act recklessly, but he was so reckless and dragged others into the water.

Lake looked at "How are you? Are you better?"

"Where is this place? Why can't you see anything? Am I still dizzy or is it dark here?"

"It's dark," Lake looked around and continued, "It should still be in an underground cave, but it's bigger than the previous one."

Xiang Qi took out the lighter, lit the fire and raised it above his head, and looked around. He found that the cave where he was located was much wider than the previous one, and there was a trace of manual digging on the wall of the cave. The arch they had just passed through was only an empty arch frame. The green light on the door had disappeared, and even the huge vortex formed by the airflow was gone. Xiang Qi slowly passed under the arch frame, but nothing was born.

"This is a bit weird, we can't seem to go back." The way we came just now became a one-way street with no return.

Lake didn't care and pointed to the other side of the cave and said, "Looking over there, it seems like a wooden door."

The wooden door is the entrance and exit to another place. If you pass through it, you may be able to return to the ground of the island.

Xiang Qi happily walked towards the large wooden gate that was about a foot long and tall. As soon as he took a few steps, he suddenly realized that Lake had a leg injury, so he turned back and helped the other party over.

Xiang Qi pushed the wooden door with one hand, but the door didn't move at all, so he let go of Lake and tried to push it again with both hands, but it still couldn't be opened.

Lake looked up and down the door, suddenly pointed to the top of the door and said, "What are the use of those worn-out things hanging on them?"

Xiang Qi looked up and now there were several iron pots hanging on the door frame with iron chains. The chains and iron pots were rusted, and they looked very old-fashioned.

Brazier? Or a mechanism to open the door?

"You have to see it before you know it."

However, the thing hung too high, even if Lake straightened his arm, it could not reach it.

When Xiang Qi was thinking about how to climb up, Lake suddenly squatted down and said to him, "Come here, ride on my shoulders, I'll hold you up."

this!

Xiang Qi was stunned. It was not impossible to ride a horse like this when he was a child. Now he is seventeen years old, so how can he have the face to do such a thing?

He hesitated for a while, took a few steps back and helped out, kicked Lake's back, jumped up lightly, and reached out to hang his hand on the door frame.

Lake was very dissatisfied with this and muttered, "You guy!" and did not blame him too much.

Xiang Qi looked into the metal basin, but the light was too dark and he couldn't see what was inside. He only saw a pitch black mass, so he said to the person below: "Give me the lighter." He took the lighter thrown by the other party and took the flame closer to take a look. He felt that the basin was filled with combustible materials like resin. He couldn't even think about it and ignited the thing directly.

"It turned out to be a brazier for lighting."

Xiang Qi bit the lighter in his mouth, hooked his hands to the door frame and moved it bit by bit, lit the four braziers hanging on the door one by one, and then he heard a crackling sound from the wooden fence door.

It should be said that the four braziers are used to open this wooden door. As long as the fire is lit, the wooden door will slowly rise up bit by bit.

Xiang Qi jumped to the ground and waited for the wooden door to be fully opened. It was not the exit to the island ground. The place where the fire was shining was still a tunnel, and from the stairs dug out from the ground, it would lead to deeper underground.

The two looked at each other and walked in with each other. The fire behind them pulled their shadows very long.

Lake had sharp eyes, and there were torches inserted on both sides of the earthen walls, and one appeared every few meters. So wherever he went, he lit the torches on both sides.

The two of them walked to the end of the stairs and suddenly felt the temperature drop sharply. They suddenly realized that although they were still underground, the space in front of them suddenly became much empty, looking like an air-raid shelter that could accommodate tens of thousands of people.

Xiang Qi was shocked and asked, "Who did you buy the island from? Is this a military bunker left during World War II? It's so big that it wouldn't have hollowed out the entire island's underground?"

Lake looked solemn and shook his head, "Do you have it now? The entire island is not that big. I suspect we are not under the island now."

Xiang Qi felt that the other party was right. Thinking of the strange green arch just now, it looked like a magic gate that only existed in a magic movie. He couldn't help but frown. They must have come to a huge mountain, which is probably far away from the original sea area.

A cold wind blew, and Xiang Qi couldn't help but shivered.

Lake asked, "Is it cold? I can lend you my windbreaker to wear."

The two of them walked all the way. Of course, he did not miss the tiny signal on the boy. His hand, which had been on the other person's shoulder, slid up and down his arms and wiped them.

It was early summer, and Xiang Qi was only wearing a thin T-shirt. Although the tunnel was cold and wet, Lake was injured on his feet and had to rely on him to support him all the way. The big man, who was about 1.9 meters tall, almost half of his body weight was pressed on him. It was a bit difficult. In addition, the other party was of a high body temperature. The two of them had been walking so close to each other, and he had already started sweating.

“Quality on the contrary.”

Xiang Qi grabbed someone's restless hand, let go of the other party, turned around and walked back to the passage just now.

"Why?" Lake asked, jumping to chase after him with one foot.

"Have the torch, stay still."

Lake had to stay where he was as he said. After a while, he saw a young man holding a torch in his hand coming out of the passage, so he smiled and said, "Actually, one is enough. My eyesight is better than you, and I can see it even without a torch."

"Is that true?" the young man responded perfunctorily, still handed over the other party's stick, and said while looking around: "It would be great if I could find a wooden stick here."

Lake smiled slightly and said, "I'm tired? Then let's find a place to rest for a while?"

"Let's just go." Xiang Qi inserted the torch in his hand into the mud beside him, and then picked up a clean staircase and sat down.

Lake sat side by side with him and said with a shame: "I'm sorry, I'll take you to this inexplicable place, and I'll ask you to take care of you all the way."

Xiang Qi shook his head. Not only did he not feel that he was suffering, but he felt a sense of relief. Before that, after learning that Xiaoya was his twin sister, he had been indulging in the anxiety and pain of breaking up. No matter where he was or what he was busy with, he always thought of that person's face and all the past year. But since he went to the island, he had no time to think about Xiaoya. After all, he should thank Lake.

"It's nothing, it's good to just treat it as an adventure, at least... it can prevent me from thinking about those unhappy things for the time being."

"Unhappy?" Lake pulled out a box of squeezed and deformed cigarettes from his windbreaker's pocket and asked, "Can I smoke a cigarette?"

Seeing Xiang Qi make a light gesture, he held a light in his mouth and lit it with a torch beside him, and then said, "Oh, by the way, when I saw you fishing alone on a yacht, I seemed to be frowning. Are you unhappy? If you can, please listen to it. Maybe I can help you solve your problems."

"No, it's not a difficult thing that requires others to solve."

"That's an emotional matter? Actually, it's a lie to say that the girl you don't like is a lie? It doesn't matter. You can also tell me about emotional troubles. Maybe I can give you good advice or comfort."

"No, no need..." Xiang Qi never mentioned this kind of thing, even his best little girl, so why would he have the nerve to say to this person?

Lake said: "A boy of your age is always inconsistent with his body and mind, and hesitated, and sometimes he does something wrong because of impulse..."

Why do you feel that this is so dirty when you say it from the other person? Xiang Qi couldn't help but scold: "You'd better shut up."

"I am a person who has experienced it at least. I can share with you some experiences and opinions between men and women."

Xiang Qi flatly refused: "No need! I don't want to be beaten by a woman."

Lake laughed, "When do you remember that kind of thing? Actually, I'm very handsome..."
