When rustling sounds and gentle conversations gradually sounded in the silent earthen chamber, the seeds' short and restless sleep soon came to an end. ∮With a bit of nervousness and expectation, everyone
Without much exchange, he immediately lit up the light in his hand and began to search for traces of water droplets.
There wasn't one in the cubicle where I slept, there wasn't one on the left, there wasn't one on the right...
During the anxious search, when No. 45 suddenly uttered an "ah", everyone thought she had found Shuizhu. The atmosphere perked up, and before anyone could ask questions, her flashlight flashed out of focus.
He shot out suddenly and threw it at the entrance of the earthen chamber: "Look!"
The light was very dim, as if most of it was absorbed by the surrounding dark earth walls; but even so, everyone could still clearly see what happened under the flashlight's aperture.
"Where's the door?" Someone suddenly screamed.
No matter how the flashlight aperture turned, the hole that originally connected the earthen chamber to the corridor disappeared - the panicked voices of the seeds rang out one after another, and they jumped out of the cells one after another and ran towards the entrance.
"Calm down!" No. 42 shouted, stopping several people in their tracks. "Take a closer look!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, then squinted their eyes and understood immediately.
The entrance did not disappear, but it was blocked at some point.
The material that seals the entrance of the cave comes from the pitted earth walls and ground around it; large chunks of earth are piled up at the entrance, with no gaps at all. At a glance, the entrance looks like it is separate from the entire earth chamber.
It's like they all merged into one, no wonder everyone thought the door had disappeared.
The color of the newly turned soil is still fresh. It is obviously man-made——
"Who did this?" No. 42 shouted angrily, "Why are you making such a joke?"
"It's not a joke." Lin Sanjiu said calmly, while still lowering his head to pick the mud between his fingernails. Even with the help of the [High Frequency Particle Vibration Cutting Knife], he could still seal the entrance alone.
It took her a lot of effort, but now she was covered in dirt and almost turned into a clay figure: "I did it, you're welcome."
"What?" Everyone was in an uproar: "What do you mean?"
"You all went to bed, did you forget it?" Lin Sanjiu raised her head and smiled, "What if someone sneaks back into the hall? I'll just block the door."
"It's true that I forgot about this." No. 42 frowned and stared at her with a look of disapproval: "But you proposed it at the time, and everyone could just take turns to watch the night. Why do you have to do this? Then clear the door, wouldn't it?
Is this a waste of energy?"
Lin Sanjiu's response to this was just a shrug.
"I haven't forgotten. But who would go out?" No. 46 smiled disapprovingly, feeling that this method was too stupid: "...Although there are not enough water beads now, can you ensure that you absorb pure water beads after you go out?
?Once you absorb a polluted person, your physical strength will weaken, and then the fact that you have betrayed everyone is exposed. Wouldn't it be a waste of money?"
This was very reasonable, and even No. 44 nodded; however, Lin Sanjiu was just concentrating on cleaning the mud on his body, and seemed not to care.
No matter what, the door must be cleared - No. 42 assigned this job to No. 43, No. 44, and No. 46. Even though everyone was complaining, they still started shoveling the soil; talking while working,
Soon someone mentioned Shuizhu Huantou.
"Speaking of which, we rested for several hours, but we didn't find even a drop of water..." No. 43 glanced at everyone with suspicious eyes: "You didn't find it again and didn't say anything, did you?
?”
"Of course not!" No. 44 jumped up immediately.
"It's hard for him to say, but I don't have one." No. 46 responded.
"Logically speaking, no," No. 42 said in a deep voice, and even the voices in the cubicle behind him became quiet: "If we find a new one, it proves that our previous speculation is correct, then there is no point in hiding the water droplets.
Necessary. It seems that this is not the condition for water droplets to appear."
"What could that be?" No. 45 asked loudly in the cubicle.
"Is it possible that... we have to absorb the previous clean water droplets before new water droplets will appear?" After everyone discussed for a while, No. 46 asked hesitantly.
"No way!" No. 44 suddenly wailed. "In the end, do you still have to test the poison with yourself——"
Lin Sanjiu sat in the dark, listening to the increasingly heated discussion, and smiled slightly.
Think about it, it’s almost time...
The more people there are, the more difficult it becomes to make a decision. No matter what you say, there will always be people with objections. After arguing for a long time and looking back through the grid, everyone finally found that there were no solutions like drops of water.
.
"Okay, let's go to the lobby." Lin Sanjiu clapped her hands, attracting everyone's attention: "You can't make a decision, I won't waste time with you, I'm leaving now.
——No one wants to come over and look at me?”
"Wait a minute -" Unexpectedly, No. 47, who had always been silent, was the first to follow: "I'll go with you."
Once a person appears who has made up his mind, the rest will follow like sheep. They may not be ready to absorb the water drops, but everyone has the idea of "it's not bad to follow them and have a look".
Walked into the corridor again.
"You haven't found a way to distinguish water droplets, have you?" Someone also asked doubtfully.
Lin Sanjiu smiled and glanced at the notice paper with "No. 42 to No. 49" written on it. She didn't respond at all - ignoring the increasingly loud noise behind her, she walked straight into the hall.
The 24 water beads placed after the number "49" are still neatly arranged as they were when she left, waiting for the arrival of their owner.
"Hey, can you tell the difference between water beads?" No. 43 couldn't help but say, "If you can't, don't take the risk, otherwise you might not have the energy to look for water beads again..."
"I really can't tell which water drops are clean." Lin Sanjiu turned back and smiled at him. Amidst the chatter behind her, she bent down and turned the first water drop in the first row into a card.
: "I actually came out to test an idea."
"What do you think?" Everyone gathered around her and asked all kinds of questions.
Lin Sanjiu raised her eyes and saw that the eyes in front of her were full of confusion, confusion, doubt, and curiosity...
There are seven pairs of eyes in total.
She said nothing, her eyes fell on the card in her hand, and then she took a deep breath.
[Harry Farm Dungeon Water Bead 25], the card says this.
"Harry, let me ask you a question." She asked loudly, and the clear female voice echoed in the hall. "Where is the dead seed in the previous group? Where is it?" (To be continued.)
