"Whatever, let's continue to find a way up, and don't waste our energy on these mummies."
The cat washed his hands with water from the ground, his face full of disgust.
"Cat, come here, I'll go see the mummy."
Chen Jie felt a little strange and didn't want to let go of the opportunity in front of him. Maybe he could find a way to escape.
“What’s so good about mummies?
Chen Jie, you might as well take a good look at me."
Mao'er now likes to tease Chen Jie more and more. She feels that teasing Chen Jie is so fun, which makes her more and more addicted.
"Stop making trouble, I'm looking for a way to get you out of here."
Chen Jie said helplessly, finding Mao'er's character, and without saying anything in depth, he just walked around Mao'er's body and touched the mummy on the ground.
Chen Jie measured it a little with his hands and estimated the characteristics of the mummy in front of him when he was alive.
"How about it?
Did you find anything?"
Mao'er crossed his hands on his chest and looked at Chen Jie with a bored expression. Instead of wasting time studying the mummies here, he should quickly think of a way to get out of here.
"Cat, where did you find this mummy just now?"
Chen Jie suddenly said excitedly, as if he had made some important discovery.
“Mummy?
Here..." Although Mao'er didn't know what Chen Jie was going to do, he did as Chen Jie said and walked to the place where the mummy just fell.
"right here?"
Chen Jie felt that the cat was very close to him, so he stood up and raised his hand to touch the cat. Unexpectedly, he touched a soft place...
Chen Jie was so frightened that he immediately retracted his hand and spoke with an embarrassed look on his face.
"Cat, please give way first. I think there is a passage here."
Chen Jie said awkwardly, luckily it was relatively dark here, so Mao'er couldn't see his current embarrassment, otherwise he would really be dead.
"Okay, I'll get out of the way."
Cat's tone was very gentle, and seemed to be mixed with a hint of shyness.
Chen Jie pretended not to hear, raised his legs and walked towards the cat, testing the mythical beast, and touched inside.
As a result, Chen Jie only felt a black shadow coming toward him, and subconsciously reached out to catch it, touching the thing in his hand. Chen Jie seemed a little depressed.
He originally thought it would be a passage or something like that, but it turned out to be another mummy. Chen Jie reluctantly put down the mummy in his hand and continued to explore.
"Chen Jie, what's wrong with you?
Why did I hear something falling again?"
Mao'er clearly saw that Chen Jie threw something dark on the ground, but he didn't know what it was.
"Just another mummy."
Chen Jie spoke calmly, as if he was talking about the weather.
Cat "..."
Could this be a mummy cave?
Otherwise, why would there be so many corpses?
Chen Jie didn't notice anything was wrong with the cat. He just groped deeper inside and along the wall. Chen Jie touched an iron ring.
"Cat, I really want to find the trap. You have to be careful, I'm going to open the trap."
Chen Jie said cautiously and motioned for Mao'er to stand beside him.
Mao'er immediately walked to Chen Jie, stretched out his hand and grabbed Chen Jie's arm naturally. Chen Jie froze, and did not push Mao'er's hand away. He tried hard to suppress the strangeness in his heart, reached out and gently pressed the switch, only to hear
There were sounds of mechanical collisions.
"Captain, Cat?
What are you doing down there?
Is there any danger?"
Chen Yanyan shouted anxiously from above, wanting to know what happened below.
It was really scary to be alone on the bridge. Chen Yanyan swore that she never wanted to experience such a thing again.
"Don't worry, Yanyan, we're fine here."
Chen Jie comforted Chen Yanyan. When he heard the sound stop, he turned around and wanted to walk out, but he didn't expect the cat to run directly into his arms.
"If you want to hug me, just say so. Why do you have to be so nervous?"
Mao'er said jokingly, not feeling anything wrong with being in Chen Jie's arms at all. It could even be said that she quite liked the feeling in Chen Jie's arms.
"Stop making trouble, now is not the time for joking."
Chen Jie deliberately kept a straight face and stretched out his hand to pull the cat out of his arms.
"Chen Jie, you are too rude."
Mao'er curled her lips, said unwillingly, and reached out to grab Chen Jie's arm again. Fortunately, Chen Jie didn't refuse.
Taking the cat slowly forward to explore, Chen Jie finally touched an object and explored it carefully. Chen Jie felt nervous and spoke excitedly.
"We finally have a way to go up!"
Chen Jie turned his head and looked at the cat beside him. Although he couldn't see the cat's appearance, Chen Jie was still very happy.
"real?"
Mao'er's tone was also full of surprise. I didn't expect Chen Jie to be so smart and find the mechanism so quickly.
Stretching out his hand, Cat tentatively moved forward and touched a wet wall, but judging from the shape of the wall, it was indeed a staircase.
"Come, follow me, I'll go up first."
Chen Jie pulled the cat to the direction of the steps and slowly groped his way up. The cat followed obediently behind him, walking confidently and boldly, without any worry that he would fall.
Anyway, with Chen Jie at the front, she can live a life of peace of mind.
"Captain, Cat, you are finally here, you scared me to death."
When Chen Yanyan heard the sound, she turned around and saw Chen Jie and Mao'er walking up together. She immediately stood up and ran towards Chen Jie, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Don't worry, I'll always be by your side."
Chen Jie was used to Chen Yanyan's habit of crying easily, so he said with a smile.
When Chen Yanyan saw the candle in her hand, she threw herself into Chen Jie's arms and hugged Chen Jie tightly. The candle in her hand accidentally lit up Chen Jie's hair.
Mao'er happened to see it from behind and reached out to pat Chen Jie on the head.
"Don't be disgusted, it's all on fire..." Mao'er curled his lips, looking at the darkening of his palms from patting Chen Jie's hair, feeling a little depressed.
Should I blame him or not, I should blame Chen Jie for being too good and being so popular with girls, which is really a bit unpleasant.
"on fire?
where?"
Chen Yanyan quickly stuck her head out and looked at the cat standing behind Chen Jie, thinking that the cat was jealous and deliberately said this. Chen Yanyan also lay in Chen Jie's arms and didn't want to get up.
When she was sitting alone on the bridge just now, her heart almost burst out of fear. Now that she saw Chen Jie coming up, how could she let go so easily and hand over the captain?
That is absolutely impossible!
Chen Jie belongs to her forever...
"Are you planning to train Chen Jie?"
Mao'er raised his eyes and looked straight at Chen Yanyan, and instantly understood that Chen Yanyan's current appearance was done deliberately for her to see.
