Good thing I still have the trunk in my hand, I poked around heavily a few times, perceived that the soil not far away is very hard, can not help but sigh with relief, slightly down on the body, trying to reduce the weight of the body.
This will reduce the speed of sinking a bit, so that a class of sinking will also slow down.
"Rumble ......" outside the cave thunder loudly, followed by the sound of rain.
I some despair, even if I out of the swamp, but there is no way to climb up the hole, once the rain is too much, the hole water, I am the same non-dead or injured, the greater hidden danger is the possibility of landslides, when the time, only I am afraid that I will also drag Fanny.
"Clara, are you okay? It's raining outside, what should we do?How did Cherry go for so long, how come he's not coming yet!"
Fanny was in a hurry outside the cave again, but did not know what to do!
The cave already has water flowing in, rainwater flowing into the swamp, making it suddenly more loose.
My heart sank, I can only fight to the death, a gamble, if the front or the swamp, I can only say that I deserve it, if not, there may be a ray of hope.
Deeply pumped, I clenched my fists, put all the strength of the province, will be their own jump out of the swamp.
Leaping one, landing on another fast ground, I was not yet settled, I noticed that under my feet was solid earth, and did not continue to sink feeling, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Outside the thunder, I can hardly hear Fanny's voice, the cave has the sound of rushing water, I think that the swamp is a long flow of water and soil soaked into it.
This place is loose soil, originally flat, but suddenly appeared so a large hole, think is the underground was hollowed out due to.
City A is a southwestern city, belongs to the mountainous area, tens of thousands of years of plate movement, inevitably will leave a lot of coal mines underground.
Some years ago there was no specific control, the local people mining coal, digging down a lot of holes in the ground, and then although there are professionals over to maintain the mining, but the mine cave idle for many years, inevitably will make this soil soft and unstable.
Now say that this land is prone to upper body landslides, so that it is better to say that the original mine has begun to slide, the surface of the hole under the surface of dozens of meters, coupled with rain erosion, the original ground looked all normal plains, one accident will suddenly collapse, revealing a large pit in the sky at the surface.
If it is daytime, such a large pit, I can naturally see, but the night is dark, no bottom under the eyes, accidentally fell down, trying to climb up, only to ask for help.
"Clara, can you hear me? Are you okay? Someone is coming, we will come down to save you right away, take it easy!" A voice came from the entrance of the cave, it was Fanny's voice.
I tilted my head to respond, "Okay, you guys be careful!"
Worried that the people coming down would accidentally fall into the swamp, I opened my mouth and shouted, "When you come down, you must bring a flashlight, there is a large swamp below, do not fall in."
From above came the voice "Yes!"
In a short while, the original dark cave had lights, I stood in place and did not dare to move, looking at the people who came down, a man figure, thinking it should be Edward.
I spoke, "Edward, you pay attention to safety, this hole has a swamp, the soil is too soft, I worry that this piece will also sink, you be careful!"
He did not respond to me, tied the rope around his waist, one hand holding a flashlight to find the path under his feet, one hand holding the soft soil of the hole in my direction.
The hole can not be too close to the hole, otherwise it is also easy to fall down, can only be assisted by pulling on top.
I have no strength in my hands, want to tug the rope up, it is not possible, after several attempts have fallen down.
Covered with mud, wretched, Dennis good physical strength, if they go up is not difficult, but with me, there is some effort, and even I will drag class him.
His clothes were all wet, covered with mud, and even the usual dry hair was covered with mud.
I sat down in the mud, some discouragement, "You go up first, this goes on, we both can not go up, the rain is too much, the risk of collapse here at any time, it is too dangerous!"
He frowned, a pair of dark eyes looked at me, his gaze deep and dark, "If it was Edward, is it that you would not have given up so quickly?"
I froze, knowing he had misunderstood, and sighed, "You're overthinking it, the most important thing now is to cut our losses, we'll both end up in trouble if we both spend so much time here."
"I'm happy to!" He opened his mouth, and regardless of my struggle, pulled me and continued to push up.
Where would it be that easy, I still fell down again.
A voice came from the entrance of the cave, "How are you guys doing? Can you come up?"
"The soil is too soft, you throw some trunks down!" Dennis opened his mouth, his eyes fell on me, and spoke, "Don't worry, I won't leave you alone here."
