Curled up, absorbing the body temperature, cold and hungry.Gu Zhizhi thought, if she could last until tomorrow, she would definitely hate rainy days in the future.

Now I can only wish Xia Xia well, only wish that the rain will stop sooner.

Fortunately, the tree trunk didn't completely block the hole, and there was enough air in the hole, so the muddy water wouldn't overwhelm her.

Thinking of this, Gu Zhizhi slowly closed his eyes, and the time passed faster when he fell asleep.

When Lu Qing and Gu Fan arrived, the whole town was dark.Because of the heavy rain, all the wires were disconnected, and the above did not dare to supply power at all.

The two first went to the home of the eldest sister who opened the restaurant.

"They went out after breakfast today, wanted to take pictures, and asked me if there were some nice places, so I told them about Tiandong" 
The eldest sister's face was full of worry, and in front of her were two big men who suddenly knocked on her door. Although she didn't know what it had to do with Chi Xia and the others, she knew that these two men were here to save them.

"Heavenly cave?"

"Well, it's just a cave, across the river"

The eldest sister pointed them in the direction of the river, and the two children hugged her thigh with fear in their eyes.

"It's all my fault. If I didn't tell them about this place, they wouldn't go back, and they won't and won't now."

The eldest sister's voice gradually choked up, and the eyes of the two children were filled with tears.

Gu Fan borrowed a flashlight from his elder sister

"Sister, you stay in the house with the children, let's go find them, they will be fine, don't worry"

After speaking, he passed the flashlight to Lu Qing.

The eldest sister nodded straightly, looked at the rain that had almost stopped outside, and asked:
"Be careful, I'm boiling hot water at home."

Then he handed them each a bamboo pole

"Use this to help you walk, you can't see in the dark"

The two took it, turned around and walked into the boundless night.
The road is not easy to walk, although a big flashlight is not very useful in the dark night.However, the bamboo poles helped them a lot and didn't make them fall to the ground.

Relying on this faint light, the two finally came to the river.

The drinking water has overflowed the surrounding land, but fortunately a big tree is still there, preventing them from falling into the river.

Gu Fan stood with his waist tucked in and took a breath

"Did you see the hole?"

Lu Qing frowned, and looked in different directions with the flashlight, but he couldn't see anything, the visibility was too low.

"Find the bridge across the river first"

The eldest sister just gave them a general orientation, but the water has risen so much that the bridge is gone, let alone the hole.

The two carefully poked forward with bamboo poles. Although the rain had stopped, the water was still flowing majesticly, and the sound was particularly loud at night.

It took the two of them more than half an hour just to find the bridge.

On the other side, both of their pants were soaked.

The light of the flashlight shone from one side to the other, but still no hole was found.

"Zhizhi-Xia Xia-"

Gu Fan made his hands into the shape of a trumpet, and the Great God shouted.

The sound was loud, and the two listened carefully, shouting several times before they could hear the source of the echo.

There is almost no way, and if it is not for the bamboo poles, neither of them can go any further.

As he walked, Gu Fan only felt that he had kicked something, which was hot.

Feeling overwhelmed, he quickly squatted down and shone the flashlight on the ground.

is a person.

The two looked at each other.

Lu Qing also squatted down.

Gu Fan stretched out his hand and turned the person over, and when he saw the face, he exclaimed

"Xia Xia!"

Reaching out to her neck, feeling the beating of her pulse, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Handing the flashlight to Lu Qing, he reached out to help Chi Xia up.

patted her face
"Xia Xia? Xia Xia?"
It was useless, Gu Fan pinched her directly, the person in his arms reacted slightly, but still did not wake up.

Gu Fan stood up holding the bamboo pole with one hand, and pressed Chi Xia into his words with the other.

Lu Qing frowned and looked at
"You take her down first, I'll go find Zhizhi"

In this way, he held her by the arm, and there was no way to go forward.

"Okay, I'll come and find you later, be careful"

Gu Fan took the flashlight from his hand and put it in his mouth.

Lu Qing first helped him carry Chi Xia downhill before looking for Gu Zhizhi again.

Because of Chi Xia's precedent, Lu Qing was extra careful with every step he took, afraid that he would accidentally poke Zhizhi with his bamboo pole, or kick her accidentally.

There are large and small trees and broken branches along the way.

Lu Qing climbed up along these lines, calling out once every few steps.After taking a few more steps, the frown deepened.

The higher you go, the harder it is to go.

The muddy water was so slippery that Lu Qing nearly slipped down the slope several times.

Gu Zhizhi, who was sitting against the cave wall, did not fall asleep completely, had a headache, and could not sleep well.Hearing some voices vaguely, he squinted his eyes and looked at the dark cave wall. The battery of the mobile phone was dead, and the flashlight could not be turned on. The muddy water flowed to her feet, and the mobile phone had already broken down.

There was no billowing muddy water coming in from the hole on the top, but the sound of the water dripping was particularly obvious, and the more obvious was the sound of his heavy breathing.

She had a cold and a fever, and it was very bad.

Lu Qing's voice came from here, which made Gu Zhizhi hear it more clearly.

"Ok?"

He stood up uncertainly, his legs were already numb from sitting for too long.

But Gu Zhizhi didn't have the energy to take care of these anymore, and stumbled to the entrance of the cave.

Lu Qing's voice was clearer this time.

Gu Zhizhi's eyes lit up, and he felt his nose a little sour, and tears flowed out at some point.

He patted the tree trunk vigorously with both hands, pushing and patting it in turn, but it didn't have the slightest effect.

Gu Zhizhi could no longer speak.

Some anxiously stomped their feet.

Suddenly it occurred to me that there were still stones in the cave, so I immediately walked inside.

However, being too excited made my already unclear mind even more cloudy, and I accidentally fell into the muddy water.

Gu Zhizhi choked on the muddy water, and his knees were scratched.But she didn't have time to care about these, staggering and groping inside in the dark.Knowing that he touched a stone, Gu Zhizhi opened his mouth and smiled.Then he quickly climbed to the edge of the hole in the same posture as before.

Fearing that the broken stone would hit Lu Qing, she just took the stone and smashed it against the wall of the cave next to her.

The stone was a bit heavy, and Gu Zhizhi lost his strength after hitting it twice in a row.

Put down the stone, put your ears close to the hole, and try your best to hear what's going on outside.

No sound.

Gu Zhizhi was a little anxious, picked up the stone and threw it on the cave wall several times.

Lu Qing, who was climbing the slope, suddenly heard a sound and stopped in his footsteps.Looking up at a dark place in front of him, looking for it with the flashlight, he could only vaguely see the shadow of the tree trunk.

Another clear knocking sound.

Lu Qing was overjoyed, and shouted towards that place

"Zhizhi? Is that you? Zhizhi?"

After hearing the knocking sound, there was silence for two seconds, and then a loud sound came.

Yes know!
"Zhizhi, wait a minute, I'll be right here!"

Lu Qing quickened his pace, but because he was too anxious, the soles of his feet slipped and fell.

Standing up indifferently, Lu Qing, who was always obsessed with cleanliness, held the muddy flashlight in his mouth, held the bamboo pole tightly with both hands, and looked up.

It's just that the shapeless road is really difficult to walk. There are some slopes, it's hard to see, and the mud and water are slippery.It took Lu Qing about ten minutes to reach the entrance of the cave.

Holding the tree trunk on one side with one hand, and inserting the bamboo pole in the other hand.

The light from the flashlight suddenly shone into the cave, and Gu Zhizhi closed his eyes a little unbearably.

Lu Qing gasped clearly, and the sadness in Gu Zhizhi's heart suddenly surged up.crying softly
"You finally came"

Lu Qing was looking for a place to stay when he heard Gu Zhizhi sobbing.The little girl's voice was a little hoarse, she was talking
You finally came

Shrinking his heart, he took the flashlight out of his mouth

"Well, I'm here, don't be afraid, Zhizhi"

While comforting Gu Zhizhi's emotions, Lu Qing was looking for a place where he could put his foot down.But after searching for a long time, he couldn't find a suitable one. He could stand firmly on the spot, but he couldn't use the strength to move the trunk away.

Gu Zhizhi seemed to have sensed the predicament. He stuck his head out from the analysis of the tree trunk and saw Lu Qing standing on the slope with difficulty.

Nose is sour again

"Or, you'd better go down first, and then ask someone to come with you."

Gu Zhizhi couldn't see Lu Qing's face clearly, only the flashlight and his hands could be seen.

But Lu Qing was able to see Gu Zhizhi clearly.

The small face was pale, especially the small mouth was black and blue from the cold, and traces of mud and water could be seen on the head.

"No, know, just wait for me a little longer"

Lu Qing took a closer look at the situation at the entrance of the cave. The tree trunk happened to be stuck on a rock, and it was completely impossible to push it from the inside.

He also looked at the gap between the tree and the top of the cave, and estimated Gu Zhizhi's figure.

"Zhizhi, can you come out from there?"

Hearing Lu Qing's words, Gu Zhizhi took a look.

If she wanted to go out, she could only go out with her upper body first, which meant that she had no place to step on at all, and the result of going out was to roll to the ground.

Lu Qing obviously thought of this, first handed the flashlight to Gu Zhizhi

"Zhizhi, help me take care of it first"

Then he pushed the bamboo pole into the ground with all his strength, but the soil around here was usually too tight, and it was difficult for him to insert it with one hand, not to mention that there was still mud and water rolling down all the time. Even small sections can be washed away by muddy water.

Gu Zhizhi thought for a while, and leaned out, seeing Lu Qing trembling with fear at this scene.
"Know!"

"Give me the pole"

Lu Qing took a look and handed her the pole.Gu Zhizhi handed the flashlight to Lu Qing again.

hold the pole with both hands
"Do you want to insert it here?"

Under Lu Qing's nod, Gu Zhizhi took a deep breath, raised his hands, and poked hard on the ground.

The bamboo pole was successfully poked into the soil.

Gu Zhizhi just laughed, but the tree trunk stuck at the entrance of the hole began to loosen due to her exertion just now.

His eyes widened, and he looked at Lu Qing with horror.

At a critical moment, Lu Qing threw away the flashlight in his hand, grabbed the tree trunk and pushed it upwards.
Gu Zhizhi closed his eyes tightly and held his breath, but he didn't feel the weightlessness of his body, so he opened his eyes suddenly.
