Chapter 54 Su died in that bubble too

  Lying in the water, holding onto the rocks by the shore, spitting out the oxygen tube from my mouth, and repeatedly blowing out the water from my mouth. Both of us were panting, unable to say a word. It wasn't until several minutes later that Kakashi threw his backpack onto the surface of the water and first propped himself up against the rocks to climb up.

  After I also climbed ashore, I first asked: "I just choked on the water of those corpses, will I die too?"

  "Several villages nearby also use this underground water, they drink more than you and haven't died."

  "But didn't the medic say last time that it was caused by the water source?"

  "Didn't you say something about flying stars and nine years? You're not going to die!" He said, while disassembling our equipment.

  I think Kakashi and I make a good team, when he's weak, I'll take the lead, and when I'm weak, he'll take the lead. He didn't even care that I was there, directly taking off his wetsuit, only wearing a small underwear to change clothes.

  I opened my eyes and started looking for my dry clothes, saying: "Those corpses should be the ones that were burned in the village. They walked into the water and floated there. Judging from the number, I estimate that the corpses from the village nine years ago are also there. It's just that they haven't rotted."

  "Right, your family's dead person might have also been there soaking in the water. Then they themselves walked out of the water."

  I found the clothes and glared at him fiercely: "Can't you just not mention this?"

  "Four One sister, I just want to make you wake up a bit. I admit, at first, I thought you and Su were quite a good match. He's already dead, so he can't do anything to you. And he has money, can buy you a house and a car。But Four One sister, these days I've also figured it out。You must have really fallen for that dead man, right? This...this is just not right at all。You two don't have any future together。Are you going to spend the rest of your life not getting married and guarding that dead man? By the way, can he even...?"

  I snatched off the headlamp and smashed it over there, really didn't want to hear him say those things. Then I hugged my clothes and walked towards the back of a stone nearby. Kakkashi was still shouting behind me: "Hey, aren't you taking a flashlight?"

  The blackness in the cave is beyond everyone's imagination. Nothing can be seen, and after walking behind the rocks, I regretted it - it was so dark, how could I change my clothes?

  But now I'm in a bad mood, and I don't want to talk to Kakashi either. Why did he have to say those things? About the experiences at the bottom of the sea, even if Kakashi didn't say it, I already knew that he had been there before. Why does he have to repeat it so solemnly, isn't this intentional? And what's with saying "dead So", even if So is a dead person, it has nothing to do with him.

  Kakaxi is also a warm man. At least he didn't sulk with me, but stood over there and shone the light towards me. Although this light wasn't very bright in the dark cave, it could still prove that he was over there, making me feel less afraid psychologically.

  Groping to put on my clothes, the image of that corpse appeared in my mind again. I thought about Su Haicheng who used to soak in it, and wondered if he was also floating like those corpses. The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became, my body trembling slightly, and I couldn't even tell whether I was cold or scared, or if I felt cold because of fear.

  The clothes in my hand fell to the ground. I took a deep breath, steadied myself, squatted down and felt around on the ground for the clothes. But there was no fabric under my hands, so I shouted out: "Throw over a flashlight!"

  But just as I finished shouting, in the darkness, I felt a hand!

  "Ah!" I exclaimed, falling backward. The thought that flashed through my mind was of a dead person. I must have touched a corpse! But as I fell backward, instead of hitting the stone wall behind me, my head hit something curved and protecting - my own hand covering my head!

  Just then, Kakashi ran over, and the flashlight in his hand also shone on me. I was only wearing my underwear, sitting on the ground, while Sohaku, with one hand propping up beside me and the other hand supporting the back of my head, had his face less than ten centimeters away from mine. Moreover, he was still wearing a diving suit, completely black. In this dark cave, even if Kakashi's light shone over, it would be hard to see anything except for his floating head in mid-air.

  "Ah!" I let out a second cry of surprise. He kissed me on the lips. Guess he couldn't pull his hand away to cover my mouth.

  My mind went blank. Kakashi covered his eyes: "Oh! Four-one sister, you're so heartless. You must be doing it on purpose, using this scene to attack me, a single dog. Revenge for what I said to you earlier."

  A voice from the other side said, "Just leave a flashlight over there for them. Kakashi, you're not afraid of the long needle eye either!" Another flashlight lit up on the other side, and only then did Kakashi put down the flashlight in his hand and walk over.

  The flashlight's beam was already adjusted to be very bright, but all that could be seen was a small area. This feeling is something that people who have never been in a cave cannot experience. There is basically no diffuse reflection here, the light shines on the rocks in the cave, and those rocks seem to absorb the light, without any diffuse reflection phenomenon. So what I can see is still Su Haicheng's face floating in the darkness.

  He slowly let go of me, releasing me to sit up on my own, and tossed the clothes from the floor at me. As I silently put them on, I could hear Ah Tian and Kakashi talking outside.

  "How did you get down here?" Ah Tian asked.

  "So how can the stimulation not come down? Tell me, how did you pass through that corpse tunnel? And also, when we came, those corpses were touched by us and now they have blocked the road over there. And also, how did you know we arrived here?"

  The black-faced man said: "This cave has a bit of an echo, we also came over after hearing the unusual sound of water. Who knew we'd run into you guys? They thought it was military personnel."

  Kakashi began telling them about the private hunting party and our speculation on the troops' movements based on the situation by the lake.

  Just as he was boasting, over there came Su Haicheng's clothes, and Ah Tian's lazy voice said: "Hey, you two want to do it, just keep your voices down, we're good buddies, let's pretend we didn't hear anything."

  "I have an opinion, I'm a single dog, can't take such a big stimulus." Kakashi had just finished speaking, when Aten said with a bad tone: "No wonder you're still a single dog. Continue telling your story."

  Su Haicheng changed his clothes while saying in a low voice, "I really didn't think you guys would come down, and even bring equipment with you. And just the two of you, it feels like you're seeking death."

  I also whispered: "I think we're just reckless." Now that it's come to this, I really feel like I was so impulsive. The feeling of wanting to jump into the water at the time was so strong, even if time were to rewind, I think in that situation, I would still jump in.

  As soon as I finished speaking, Su Haicheng hugged me again. This time, he kissed me wildly and held me so tightly. My hands were against his chest, and he was half-dressed, with his pants on but no shirt. My hands touched the upper part of his body, right at his chest. His breath enveloped my entire body, as if trying to melt me into him.

  After this kiss, he still stretched out his tongue to lick my lips: "Alright, go out. You guys should have brought something to eat down here, right?"

  "Ah, oh." My mind was still in a daze, he just... seemed to have touched... my...

  Su Haicheng was walking out while putting on his clothes. Ah Tian laughed at him: "Wow, you guys are really doing it? You're not being gentle enough with your girlfriend. At least put a quilt under her in a place like this."

  "Shut up! Is there a way to make fire? Go catch some fish."

  "Yes, sir. We laborers are pitiful."

  I put on my clothes, picked up the flashlight from the ground and tried to calm myself down when the light of the flashlight shone onto the wall. Two fluorescent eyes appeared on the wall!
