A Real Man Isn't Afraid Of A Little Demon

Yu Chu started to laugh, then coughed while clutching his chest.

He felt something dangling on his wrist, reached out to touch it, and found that it was a chain with a cross and a small ball at the end, which was wound around his forearm several times.

It should have been torn off from Yu Shiqing's neck when he fell off the cliff, and instead of being swept away by the sea water after he fell unconscious, it wrapped around his arm.

Yu Chu stroked the gold chain, unfastened the buckle and hung it around his neck.

But when he went to touch his phone, he found that his pocket was empty. Thinking that he had just worked hard in vain, he couldn't help but smiled wryly.

"My eyes seem to be blind." He told Zhou Mu.

Zhou Mu: "I can't see either, don't worry, I'm not blind, we are in the same hole."

It was only then that Yu Chu noticed that the voices of the two echoed. They were in a confined space, the stones under them were also very damp, and the air was full of the salty smell of sea water.

He moved, trying to prop himself up and sit up, but Zhou Mu grabbed his arm: "Don't move, the sea is beside you, and I will rescue you if you fall over, I really don't want to move anymore, let me rest for a while Come on."

Yu Chu just woke up from the coma, and his body was actually very tired. Hearing what Zhou Mu said, he closed his eyes and stopped moving.

Both of them closed their eyes in silence, and the surrounding was quiet. After a while, Yu Chu suddenly asked, "Zhou Mu, why did you save me?"

Zhou Mu replied in a perfunctory tone: "Because we met after falling into the water, it's just a matter of helping me."

Yu Chu smiled and said: "You are so good at swimming, even if you are thrown off the cliff by Yu Shiqing, you can still swim a few kilometers, and then go ashore without anyone noticing. You should be chasing after you in this cave. Did you come in after me?"

"Maybe." Zhou Mu replied noncommittally.

Yu Chu turned his head in his direction in the dark, and said, "So I asked you why you rescued me. This is very dangerous. Actually, if it were you, I would definitely not chase after you to save me."

"You are honest." Zhou Mu suddenly laughed lowly, and Yu Chu felt that the air around him seemed to be shaking with his chest.

After a moment of silence, he said: "When I was very young, my parents passed away, and the only people close to me were my sister and your grandmother. They also left one after another. I can only take care of the people they care about in this world. .”

Yu Chu felt a feeling that she couldn't describe, and she replied, "Oh."

The two stopped talking, closed their eyes and rested, and Yu Chu soon fell into a deep sleep.I don't know how long I slept for this sleep, and when I woke up, I found myself lying in a warm and firm embrace.Zhou Mu's thigh was resting under his head, his steady heartbeat was heard by his ears, and his body was surrounded by his two powerful arms.

Yu Chu's body was a little tense for a moment, but he didn't want Zhou Mu to be alert in his sleep, so he woke up instantly, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Are you awake?"

There was a nasal sound in his voice that had just woken up, which diluted the cold and hard temperament on his body.

"Yes." Yu Chu replied in a low voice.

Zhou Mu raised his head and moved his neck. He fell asleep against the cave wall just now, and now his neck is a little sore.Yu Chu moved away calmly, trying to leave his embrace.

Unexpectedly, the stone was really small, so he moved it a little, and one leg was suspended in the air, and he almost fell into the water.

"Don't move." Zhou Mu tightened his arms and ordered lazily.

Sure enough, Yu Chu didn't move anymore, and just lay obediently in his arms.But after such a sleep, he felt that his body had recovered, his hands and feet had strength again, and even his chest pain was no longer so great.

Zhou Mu said, "We're trying to get out of here now, can you dive?"

When he was swimming in the sea every day before, Yu Chu lay prone in the shallow sea, like a motionless tortoise. He suspected that this person could not swim at all.

"know a little."

"How much is one point? How long can you hold your breath?" Zhou Mu asked.

Yu Chu frowned: "I used to be able to hold my breath in the water for eight minutes and 20 seconds, but now I don't know."

This body has not been trained, he is not sure how long he can hold his breath, it is estimated that it is at the level of normal people, the longest is about four to five minutes.

Zhou Mu said, "Try it. Just now you were unconscious underwater for nearly 10 minutes. Didn't you survive? After swimming out of the hole at most, I will rescue you again."

Yu Chu: ...

Having said that, Zhou Mu didn't really intend to let him into the water, he carefully put him down on the ground and squeezed him into a seat, he said: "You just wait here, I'll go and see how long this hole is. If the estimate is wrong, there should be a cave not far ahead, and we can go ashore."

There was a trace of panic in Yu Chu's heart, and he wanted to pull his arm reflexively. He stretched out his hand in mid-air before realizing it. He quickly retracted it and replied calmly: "Okay."

Zhou Mu couldn't see his movements, so he just said: "Then sit still and don't move around, be careful not to fall into the water, I'm not around, and no one will catch you after you fall."

"Okay." Yu Chu said again.

The warmth around him suddenly disappeared, and there was the sound of splashing water in front of him. Yu Chu knew that Zhou Mu had fallen into the water, but he still touched in his direction, and only touched the wet and cold stone platform.

The clacking sound gradually faded away and disappeared, and the cave was quiet again, only the whining sound of the wind blowing the cave wall was heard from nowhere.

Yu Chu sat in the dark, tilted his head slightly, pricked up his ears to listen to the movement in the distance, and silently counted the time in his heart.

Fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen... He should have swum some distance.

56, 57, 58, another minute passed...

Time passed slowly, but Yu Chu felt more and more uneasy. He began to wonder if Zhou Mu would encounter some undercurrent, or hit a rock in the dark, and fall into a coma in the water like he did at the beginning.

He didn't want to be left alone in the boundless darkness, trapped in this cave.

Just thinking wildly like this, a few more minutes seemed to pass, his heart was gradually occupied by panic, and his heart beat faster and faster.

No, no, I'm going to check it out.he murmured.

Just as he was about to go into the water, there was the sound of water being stirred not far away. He stopped the movement of going into the water, and asked with a trembling voice, "Is it Zhou Mu?"

"It's me." The familiar deep voice replied.

Zhou Mu touched the cave wall with his hands and swam forward. When he touched the stone, he turned over and jumped up, and the water splashed all over the ground.

"I explored this cave, and after swimming for □ minutes, the bottom of the cave began to rise, and there was light in the water, and I was sure to be able to go out ahead. Just 4 minutes after swimming out, there was a cave roof. When exposed to the water, you can take a breath in the middle. However, the space is relatively small and can only accommodate one person to breathe, but this is no problem at all. When we get there, we can take turns to take a breath.”

While twisting the water on the T-shirt, Zhou Mu told Yu Chu about getting out of the cave. After he finished speaking, he thought that Yu Chu would be happy to ask this and that, but he didn't expect him to say anything.

"Why, don't you want to be here anymore?" Zhou Mu's tone was playful: "Or are you scared of staying here alone?"

Yu Chu still didn't speak, and his breathing was a little short. Only then did he notice something strange, and reached out to touch Yu Chu's forehead.

"Is there something uncomfortable?" His hand touched the soft hair in the dark, and then moved down, resting on Yu Chu's forehead.

The tentacles are slightly cool there, there is no fever, everything is normal.

"Why did you come back after being away for so long?" Yu Chu's voice was a little sharp, as if asking questions.

"Didn't I want to find out the route? That's for sure—" Zhou Mu explained first, then paused in the middle of the sentence, and after two seconds of silence, he replied after consideration: "Don't worry, I will definitely come back to pick you up."

After a long time, Yu Chu hummed in a low voice, changed the subject and said, "Since you can go out after exploring this hole, let's go into the water now."

"How is your recovery?"

"No problem."

"Okay, let's go into the water." Zhou Mu said.

He was about to go into the water while supporting the stone with his hands, when he suddenly felt the hem of his T-shirt being pulled by someone.He didn't forcefully break free or let Yu Chu let go, but calmly opened his fingers, and then switched to his waist, saying: "You grab here."

Yu Chu grabbed the T-shirt at his waist with one hand, supported the stone with the other and went down into the water. The two of them took a deep breath together and dived into the water.

The water was still pitch black, and the cold permeated every cell. Yu Chu had just experienced drowning, and this feeling really made him uncomfortable, as if he was on the verge of death again, and his heart constricted.

However, he was holding Zhou Mu's clothes in his fingers, and his knuckles could touch the warm skin, so that he wouldn't be too frightened, so he only held the fabric tighter, for fear that it would slip out.

Both Shuiliu and Zhou Mu were leading Yu Chu forward. He was afraid that strenuous exercise would slow down his breath-holding time, so he didn't use too much force and only swung his legs lightly.

Fortunately, he could feel that Zhou Mu was by his side, and he knew how strong this person was, so even if his lungs started to swell again, he didn't panic too much.

When he reached a certain position, Zhou Mu stopped suddenly, grabbed Yu Chu's arm who was still rushing forward with his backhand, and pushed him up.

Yu Chu immediately understood his movements, swung his legs, and touched the cave wall with one hand.Then he raised his head, a face suddenly appeared on the surface of the water, breathing eagerly.

This is where Zhou Mu said that you can take a breath midway. The space is so small that only one person can show half of his face. When Yu Chu was breathing with his mouth open, Zhou Mu sank beside him, holding him with both hands. waist.

Yu Chu took a deep breath, sank into the water, and Zhou Mu floated up again.

It took him half a minute to change his breath this time before he took a deep breath and sank.

Just when Yu Chu thought they would continue to sneak, Zhou Mu pushed him up again, and patted his waist with his hands, signaling him to continue to breathe.

After Yu Chu breathed out a long breath, Zhou Mu led the people forward.

After continuing to swim along the cave wall for about 3 minutes, Yu Chu felt that the water flow around him accelerated, and the water temperature was no longer so icy cold, and it had increased by at least several degrees.The front vision began to brighten, and a hazy light appeared in the water waves.

It's time to go out.His heart skipped a beat.

Zhou Mu also speeded up his paddling. Yu Chu clutched his T-shirt tightly, and suddenly remembered the introduction of marine fishes he saw on TV two days ago. One of them was called Indian fish, which was lazy and slender. , the favorite is to swim on the belly of a shark.

He felt that in this situation, he was like an Indian fish, riding the wind and waves with Zhou Mu, a shark.

The light is getting brighter and brighter, and you can already see the dark cave walls on both sides, and you can also see the seabed a few meters below your feet.

The water becomes shallower and you can surface in no time.

But the seemingly short distance was delayed, and the entire cave was still submerged in deep water. Just when Yu Chu was about to run out of breath, two swimming figures suddenly appeared in front of him.

The figure was carrying an oxygen cylinder and had long webbed feet. They were two frogmen.

The frogman also spotted them and swam towards them.Swimming closer, the frogman in front took off the oxygen mask on his face, and made a gesture to put it on Zhou Mu's face.

Zhou Mu waved his hand, pointed to Yu Chu behind him, and signaled him to take it for Yu Chu, then swung his two powerful legs and rushed forward like a fish.

Yu Chu was put on the oxygen mask, took two greedy breaths, and then returned the oxygen mask to the frogman.The frogman grabbed his back collar and moved forward quickly. One minute later, with a crash, he took him out of the water.

A round of full moon hangs above the head, shining the entire sea surface, as if sprinkled with a handful of broken gold.Yu Chu wiped the water off his face, then turned his head to look around. When he saw Zhou Mu floating on the water not far away, panting, he was obviously relieved.

"Thank you!" came an earth-shattering shout from behind.

Yu Chu turned around and saw that there was a large motorboat in the rear, and there were a few people standing on the deck, waving at this side.And one of the figures crossed the ship's side, plunged into the water, splashed several meters high, and came rushing through the waves.

Yu Chu quickly turned her head and saw that Zhou Mu also had a smile on his face, and raised an arm to wave to them.

He smiled happily, showing his white teeth under the moonlight, and the lines of his handsome face softened, with a relaxed expression that Yu Chu had never seen before.

It turned out that his surname was Xie.

The first thought that came to Yu Chu's mind was actually this.
