Chapter 09 Ambiguity
Chen Siwei unscrewed the mineral water bottle and took two sips. She suddenly realized something and raised her head and asked, "Have you eaten anything?"
Beckham smiled and said, "I just ate it when you were in a coma. Eat it first. I'll go ahead."
In fact, Beckham has not yet entered, but he did not say that a man walked forward silently and then smiled. It turns out that even if I die, I can't change some characteristics.
Suddenly, he stopped. Because he found some footprints in front of him. It's a human trace! Is there anyone else? Absolutely right, it's footprints. Beckham squatted down and took a closer look. The soil was still very fresh, not long after stepping on it.
No, he turned around and raised his pistol again, but he couldn't see anyone around him.
There is no sound around except the sound of water droplets. Has the man left? Who is it? The person who was washed down by the flood? Or the original residents here? Or your own companion?
Beckham is not sure, but he thinks it's better to be cautious.
He retreated again and took a look at the hole above, which had been sealed. What's more, it was about seven or eight meters high from the ground. He could not climb up without tools. Even if he could go up, he would not open a small gap.
"What's wrong?" Chen Siwei asked.
"There are traces of people walking through here." Beckham glanced around warily again. It was still open and the straight road did not look dangerous. Then he was relieved that it was at least safe now.
"Was it also washed in by the flood?" Chen Siwei asked tentatively.
"I don't know. I also thought so, but I guess it's not the people in our team. It may be indigenous people or other people. I haven't seen anyone yet." Beckham shook his head and then stopped.
He glanced at the gasoline barrel, squatted down to unscrew the tight lid, and a pungent smell of gasoline instantly rushed to his nostrils, making him quickly cover his mouth and nose.
Fortunately, there was no water and it was well sealed. He touched it for a long time, took out a lighter from his pocket, and then found two branches to dig a small hole on the ground, poured gasoline and lit it.
Boom, the flame soared more than a meter in an instant, and then gradually faded. The orange-red and slightly blue firelight reflected Beckham's increasingly resolute face, twinkling.
Now there is a fire, and the surrounding light is bright enough to cover seven or eight meters in diameter, making it clear at a glance. In this way, as long as someone approaches, they can see it. What's more, they are now wet all over, their hair is not completely dry, and their clothes are all attached to their skin, which is cold, which also affects his actions. Now with fire, heat can dry his clothes.
He asked Chen Siwei to sit down and then found some branches and boards to fill in. It's not much, and I don't know which one in the village has left. It's only about five liters. He needs to save it. Otherwise, in this weather, I'm afraid they will freeze to death before they die of starvation or being killed. I don't know how long this situation will last. In short, it's good to save a little.
Beckham took off her coat and dried it by the fire with a wooden stick, and suddenly found an embarrassing problem.
Of course, he is fine. He can take off his clothes and dry them before the fire, but Chen Siwei is inconvenient. This problem really gives him a headache. But what should I do?
Tell her? Did you take off your clothes? I will never peek? Shit, isn't that looking for a beat? Do you feel uncomfortable when your clothes are wet? Shall I dry it for you? Dizzy, this obvious hooligan.
Forget it, Beckham shook his head, put on the clothes he had just taken off again, and then walked to the distance.
"I'll go to the other side first and see if I can find that person. Let's warm up here now. By the way, I won't come back for a while. Cough, no, I mean I won't come back, and it's not right. I said, well, the clothes are wet and cool. I'll go first..." Xiaobei blushed like a monkey's buttocks, which was extremely embarrassing. If it hadn't been for the darkness covering the cave, I'm afraid he would have to make a crack in the ground and hide in it. Isn't it getting darker and darker!
Looking at Chen Siwei again, she was even more embarrassed. She lowered her head and didn't say anything. Finally, she threw the mineral water bottle at Beckham and shouted, "Are you leaving or not? If you want to leave, just go quickly. What's the word here! Is it a man?"
Xiaobei was stunned and let the water bottle hit him. He quickly turned around and prepared to run. In fact, after listening to the last sentence, he wanted to say, don't you know if I'm a man?
However, he is not so thick-skinned, so he can only "suffer" and walk far away.
However, this episode eased the tense atmosphere a lot. Now what is more important for him is to find another person in the cave. The footprints clearly show that there is only one person, and he is still sure. Only when the danger is solved can they find a way out and then meet the troops.
Thinking of the team, Beckham's worried old problem happened again.
How are Ye Laosan and Yang Wei now? Will they still be looking for themselves? Or can't help jumping down to save yourself and encountering danger? Where will the team go back if it goes normally? There are mountains around here, and they don't have a compass at all. There is no direction to find. Is there enough supplies?
Beckham took a look at the watch in her hand and sighed again that she had finally bought a good product and could still be used. It was 927 in the morning, and it was already dawn, but it was buried here, so she couldn't tell day and night.
"Hey, take off your clothes!" Chen Siwei's voice came from behind, and Xiaobei stopped.
"Gha? What did she say!? Beckham's brain died instantly, blank, and perhaps there were some bad and obscene thoughts. Ah? What? Clothes?"
Chen Siwei's current expression is even more seductive and criminal. Her face is shy, she lowered her head deeply, and the two blushes on her cheeks make people think. In addition, her seductive figure is all pasted to the skin because of the wetness. The perfect curve is outlined, and the scattered and messy long hair has a unique beauty.
The bright red lips opened again, and the beautiful voice came into Beckham's ears, but it was slightly inaudible.
"I said, take off your clothes and let me dry them for you. You must be uncomfortable now, right?" After whispering a few words, she felt a little ambiguous and quickly explained, "No, I mean, this will also have an impact on your actions."
"Oh." Beckham nodded awkwardly, and then took off his coat awkwardly. As a result, because it had been connected with the clothes inside, he suddenly became shirtless and extremely dazzling in the firelight.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." Xiaobei hurriedly threw his clothes on the ground, and then ran to the depths of the cave naked. On the way to escape, he almost hit a sharp stone, but fortunately, he did not hit it firmly and only wiped a scar next to his nose.
This is the first time Xiaobei has seen Chen Siwei's current appearance. It used to be that kind of capable image, but now suddenly such a little feminine makes Xiaobei's nerves a little unturnable. Anyway, this one still looks good, hey hey. Beckham began to fight against evil thoughts again.
