Lin Fan was startled, but then he remembered that stars can fly, and quickly steadied himself.
I need to improve my mental state, she thought to herself, turning around to look around.
The place where I was standing just now has collapsed.
In the darkness, the sound of falling rocks continued to be heard.
A large hole formed on the road, and Lin Fan was floating on the edge of the hole.
This... Could it be that the stars are too heavy and have trampled the road?
The interior of the cave is made of limestone, which is not very hard.
The rock mass in the collapsed area is relatively thin, which may be the reason why the heavier Xingchen stepped on it and it collapsed.
"Are you okay?" came John Woo's voice.
"It's okay. It's probably because the structure of this place is weak, and the star is too heavy, so I stepped on it and made a hole. I'll be careful to control the weight later." Lin Fan glanced down casually. It was pitch black and he couldn't see anything.
He adjusted the suspension force and flew to the opposite side.
She was now very familiar with the flying ability of the stars, and using suspension to reduce her own weight was not difficult for her, it just consumed a little more energy.
But obviously, she did not expect that the structure of the fracture in front was even more fragile. As soon as she stepped on the ground, another piece collapsed.
It seems to need to be a little lighter.
Just as I was thinking about making some adjustments, I suddenly heard a voice coming from below.
“Help…Help…”
The sound was soft and shallow, mixed with the sound of falling rocks and the echo. If she hadn't had exceptional hearing, she would have probably ignored it.
There is someone down there!
Lin Fan's expression became serious, and he turned around and flew towards the direction where the sound came from.
"What's wrong?" Xue Ping asked as he saw the picture on the screen suddenly flip.
"I seem to hear a cry for help." Lin Fan didn't know the terrain below and didn't dare to fly too fast for fear of crashing into the limestone again.
Since there were people down there, they probably fell. A lot of rocks just fell, and I wonder if anyone down there was hurt? It would be terrible if a third injury occurred.
Everyone at the control desk perked up when they heard someone was there. They didn't like these two troublemakers, but they still wanted them alive.
Life is always worthy of respect.
Lin Fan also successfully found the person who asked for help.
About thirty meters below the collapsed area, there is a C-shaped depression. The rock on the top forms a natural shelter, and a person is lying inside.
When Lin Fan stepped on the collapsed ground for the first time, the falling rocks only landed on the top of the C-shape and did not hit him.
Instead, when the rocks on the opposite side fell, some small pieces of gravel bounced off the rock wall and hit him.
In addition, Lin Fan's voice above caught his attention, and he began to call for help.
If it weren't for this coincidence, Lin Fan would have thought that the pit was all created by Xingchen, and would never have thought that there was someone else underneath. The two of them would definitely miss it.
Lin Fan carefully landed in front of the person seeking help.
He was wearing what looked like a helmet with a square camera mounted on it. His face was covered in scratches, his lips were chapped, and he was barely breathing.
Even when the rescue came to him, he couldn't move at all, only his eyes seemed to burst with surprise.
"Are you okay?" Lin Fan was concerned about the other person's eyes, so he dimmed the light, took a quick look at him, and turned his head away, trying not to let the light shine directly into the other person's eyes.
Fortunately, there seemed to be no bleeding and no exposed wounds were found.
She quickly took out a bottle of water from her waterproof bag and carefully fed it to the man.
One look at his mouth told me he was definitely dehydrated. I wonder how long he's been stuck here.
"Control panel, we've found a trapped person. Please verify his identity." Lin Fan reported while feeding the baby.
"Aim at his face." Xue Ping carefully examined the photo before confirming it. "Yes, it's that internet celebrity, Lu An. That name... he's definitely not a restless person."
After replenishing water, Lu An gradually recovered like a dehydrated fish.
Perhaps knowing he was rescued, his mental state changed. He still had little strength, but his spirits were visibly better.
"Can I eat something?" Lin Fan took out a bag of liquid food, opened the lid and handed it to his mouth.
At first, she had to help him squeeze it, but later, Lu An was able to move by himself, and he used both hands to squeeze it into his mouth with all his might.
Fortunately, the opening of the package is relatively small, otherwise Lin Fan suspected that he could pour it into his nostrils.
After finishing a packet of food, Lu An finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt alive again.
"Are you Lu An?" Lin Fan took the package and put it back into the waterproof bag, then handed the water to him.
Lu An nodded. He took a few gulps from the water bottle and then looked at Lin Fan.
Because he hadn't seen the light for a long time, facing two light sources, he couldn't see the stars behind him at all. He only knew that the person who saved him seemed to be a woman from the sound of her voice.
"There is another person named Feng Chuang. Ask him where he is." Xue Ping's instructions came again in the headset.
When Lin Fan came down just now, he had quickly scanned the surroundings and didn't see anyone else nearby.
"Lu An, where is Feng Chuang who came with you now?" Lin Fan said as he looked around again to make sure there was indeed no trace of other people nearby.
"I don't know." Lu An recalled and said, "He was walking behind me. When I fell, he seemed to be still on top. Yes! He didn't fall."
Lu An's voice came back through Lin Fan's headphones.
"Feng Chuang didn't fall down? Then is it likely that he is on the other side?" Xue Ping asked.
"Probably not," Wu Yusen shook his head. "No normal person would continue to move forward when their companions fell and the situation was unclear."
"I don't think so either," Lin Fan agreed. "Excluding the place I just stepped on, this pit is quite large. It's over three meters long, and there's no place to step on either side. I don't think most people would take the risk of jumping over it. Not to mention whether they can make it across, they don't know what's ahead. There's no need to gamble their life."
Lu An could only hear Lin Fan's words, and mustered up the courage to ask her for another bag of food. "I also don't think he'll jump. I asked him for help, but he ignored me. I think he might have run back."
"In that case..." John Woo mused.
"We should have gone into that cave," Lin Fan said silently. "I just turned back because I vaguely heard some noise inside. I wasn't paying attention to where I was..."
Along the way, apart from the cave just now, there were no other forks in the road. Could Feng Chuang have simply returned to the water? He couldn't be that stupid.
The entrance to the cave is a bit narrow, but it is still spacious enough for ordinary people.
"Did you see the cave not far away when you came here?" Lin Fan asked Lu An.
"I saw it," Lu An said, swallowing his food ravenously. "Feng Chuang wanted to take that road, but I told him the small road was hard to walk on and that the main road was better. He couldn't win the argument."
The road inside the cave was bumpy and did not look as smooth as the road outside.
Moreover, the space is not as big as outside. It looks a bit cramped, making people feel uneasy and unsafe.
Lu An thought it would be better to take the main road, but he didn't expect that the main road was also unsafe.
"That should be correct. Feng broke into that cave." Lin Fan nodded slightly.
There was no way to avoid the path I had to take. It seemed I had to shrink back a bit and go in to find someone.
