Endless Fall

   Chapter 131 Jungle Adventure, Weird Cave

   Zhou Yanshen fastened the seat belt for Qian Yue.

   He stared into those eyes, both gentleman and caring: "Tell me if you're afraid."

   "Hmm." Qian Yue stepped on the first stake.

   She seemed to be a little unsteady in her center of gravity and grasped the tightrope, stepping forward at his next step.

   stepped over several wooden stakes one after another, she was inexplicably dizzy: "Mr. Zhou, can you pull me?"

   Zhou Yanshen leaned in her direction, and when he held that cool left hand, an unprecedented feeling hit his heart.

   "Don't be nervous." He reassured him gently, and the corners of his lips raised a smile: "I won't let you fall."

   The warmth of his palm enveloped Qian Yue.

   She looked at the back he left behind, the throbbing feeling was stronger than last night, and even the last trace of tension disappeared.

   When they reached the middle, Pei Zhi also held Lin Jiao's hand and slowly stepped on the wooden stake with a few footprints.

   "Beautiful, don't look down." He knew that her fear stemmed from the stake, so every time she took a step, she would look back to give her a sense of security.

  Lin Jiao's mind suddenly flashed a frame.

   "Uncle." She brushed away the hair stuck to her cheek: "Do you remember that French restaurant we went to before?"

"Remember."

   "The glass over there is scarier than this."

   Pei Zhi let out a low laugh from his throat.

   He rubbed her ring to prevent her from distracted and reminded again: "Stand on and step forward."

  Lin Jiao pulled back her thoughts and moved forward cautiously.

   Qu Shao, who followed her, stared at the fish jumping out of the stream: "Shen Yi, look at the fat one on the right."

"you want to eat?"

   "Thinking about it, but I can't do it."

   Shen Yi's eyes fell on his waist.

   "It's a trivial matter if you can't get it right." He stepped on the stake on Qu Shao's left: "It's a big deal when the seat belt is broken."

   "Who broke the seat belt?"

"you."

  Qu Shao turned his head and looked: "I am!"

   His surprised voice made the fish in the stream jump even more happily, and even the splashing water seemed to be mocking.

   "I'll ask Chu Yuzhou to send you one." Shen Yi pulled up the belt hanging on his leg, his expression always calm.

   "This height should be fine."

   "But it will definitely break a bone if it falls." For safety's sake, he still shouted to the other side of the bridge.

   Chu Yuzhou, who heard the voice, walked back again.

   He handed the seat belt hanging on the wire to Qu Shao: "How did it break? Did you pull it?"

   "No shit, it broke by itself."

   "The quality is too bad!"

   "I'll tell them when I go back." Qu Shao took another look at the plump fish, and reluctantly stepped down the wooden steps with them.

   "Where should we go?"

   "I don't know, there are no signs."

  Qian Yue glanced sharply at the red ribbon: "There is a piece of paper on the tree." She pointed to the tree behind Lin Jiao.

   "Too high for two people."

   "Who is coming?"

  Chu Yuzhou squatted down holding the tree trunk.

   There were only three women who were underweight. Pei Yilan was afraid that he would be crushed to death, so she reluctantly sat on his shoulders.

   She hugged his head and pinched his face with her forearm when he got up, for fear that he would accidentally throw herself out.

   "Pei Yilan, let go!"

   "It's your honor that I hug you, okay?"

  Chu Yuzhou's brains jumped.

   He raised his chin towards the branch, not in the mood to quarrel with her: "How can you take things if you don't let go?"

   "Then don't shake it." Pei Yilan stretched out his right hand and fiddled with the branches a few times before finally touching the ribbon.

   She kicked the tree trunk up and tore it off.

   "It really is a map." Zhou Yanshen unfolded the piece of paper and carefully read the icons and routes marked on it.

   "Which way should we go now?"

   "Right."

   They walked to the end along the dirt road on the right and stopped in front of a cave covered by dense flowers and plants.

  The quiet cave did not see the slightest light.

   With the naked eye, it is not only impossible to see the end, but also gives people a feeling of staring into the abyss, which can easily evoke fear in the bottom of my heart.

   "You go first." Shen Yi stepped aside and stepped on the cigarette that was burning to the end: "I'll go to the back with Qu Shao."

   "Then I'll go ahead."

   "You all turn on your flashlights."

   The sequence of crossing the single-plank bridge was still the same. Pei Zhi held Lin Jiao at the same pace as her, and followed behind the four.

   When they went deep, the sunlight that fell on the entrance of the cave completely disappeared, and only the flashlight of the mobile phone illuminated the surrounding stone walls.

"what-"

   Pei Yilan, who stopped at the fork in the road, screamed.

   She grasped Chu Yuzhou's sleeve, and pointed to the left with her fingertips trembling: "A figure floated past!"

   "Did you read it wrong?"

   "Yes, there really is a shadow!"

  Lin Jiao was not quite sure: "Maybe it's a staff member?" She stood on tiptoe, her eyes wandering back and forth on the left and right sides.

   "Is there anyone?" Qu Shao shouted.

   The environment so quiet that the needle could be heard echoed from him, but no one responded to him.

   He pointed the flashlight inside again and suggested, "Why don't we go and have a look?"

"I can not."

   "What are you afraid of? You hide behind me."

  Chu Yuzhou dragged Pei Yilan behind him, who was so cowardly as a quail, with disgust in his eyes.

   He shook his phone to look back and forth at the wall, heard the sound of water droplets falling, and raised his head to look up.

   "patta—"

   A few drops of water fell on his forehead.

   He wiped it casually twice, and was about to share the stickiness of the water droplets with them when he heard a piercing scream.

"What's wrong?"

   "Blood... a lot of blood on your face."

   "Where did you get it?" Zhou Yanshen was frightened by the **** face, not to mention Qian Yue next to him.

   "Drips from above."

   "Do you smell anything?"

   "No taste." Chu Yuzhou sniffed his fingertips twice and raised the corner of his mouth: "It's probably a prepared liquid."

   He laughed even more horribly.

  Lin Jiao handed him a tissue: "You wipe it first." She really didn't want to face that "horrible" face.

   "Will this road drip water?"

"Won't."

   Pei Zhi, who was observing the stone wall, caught a flash of white shadow, and hugged Lin Jiao to his arms.

   He reminded warmly: "There is something on the left."

   Qian Yue didn't dare to look forward.

   She moved closer to Zhou Yanshen, holding his wrist when she was about to turn, seeking a sense of security.

   Her initiative made Zhou Yanshen's heart rippling.

   "It's fine." He stood in front of her in a protective posture, staring at her carefully: "Nothing has been found so far."

   "I can't go!"

   "Can that stone door be opened?"

   "It doesn't seem possible."

  Shen Yi stared at the uneven stone gate.

   He never stroked the bumps vigorously, and said with great interest, "There are three buttons on it."

"it's the same?"

   "It doesn't seem to make a difference."

   "I think..." Before Zhou Yanshen's words were finished, Chu Yuzhou, who couldn't wait, pressed the button closest to him.

   He turned his head: "What do you think?"
