Chapter 311 Save me!
【Woman, save me! 】
That voice that couldn't be more familiar rang in Gu Ranle's ears like a thunderclap.
She shuddered all over and subconsciously turned her head to scan the surrounding areas where the searchlight could reach, but she didn't even see Gu Xiaohei's shadow.
"Gu Xiaohei?" Gu Ranle shouted in a random direction at the top of his voice, his voice full of anxiety.
【I am here. 】
Gu Xiaohei's voice exploded in her ears again. Gu Ranle froze in place instantly, her eyes widened - she actually heard Gu Xiaohei talking again!
She could only hear the dog's voice when she was in the book, and now she heard it again. Could it be that she had been in the book again without knowing it?
She quickly turned her head to look behind her and saw the two bodyguards still following her steadily like two pillars.
She took a deep breath and lowered her voice to ask, "Did you hear anything...people talking?"
When the words came to her lips, she abruptly changed "the dog talks" to "the person talks".
Don't let the bodyguard think she is crazy, how can a dog talk?
"You bastard, what's going on? Why can I suddenly hear you talking again?" Gu Ranle muttered as he squatted down and tapped the ground lightly with his fingers.
[I don’t know either! Please save me, I’m right under your feet! There is a trap under your feet, I accidentally fell down just now, and my legs were caught by the trap, I can’t move at all! ]
Gu Xiaohei's voice was filled with tears and he was extremely anxious.
Gu Ranle was about to ask something else when there was a sudden crisp "click" sound under his feet.
Before she could react, the ground beneath her feet began to shake violently as if it had gone mad, as if a gigantic monster was rampaging underground.
"careful!"
Gu Ranle yelled and instinctively rushed towards the bodyguard closest to him.
The other bodyguard was also staggered by her sudden action.
"Tom!"
The three of them hit the ground hard, raising a small cloud of dust.
In fact, to be precise, the two bodyguards fell heavily to the ground like two walls of flesh, protecting Gu Ranle tightly in the middle. She didn't feel any pain at all, but her heartbeat accelerated due to the sudden change.
"How are you two?" Gu Ranle quickly stood up and looked at the two bodyguards with concern.
One of the bodyguards frowned, his hand unconsciously touched the back of his head, and a look of pain appeared on his face.
The other one shook his head gently, his voice relatively calm: "I'm fine."
Gu Ranle reached out and pulled him up, then squatted down and carefully gave another bodyguard a quick check.
"I think he has a concussion. We need to go to the hospital for a thorough check-up when we get back. I'm really sorry. It happened so suddenly that I didn't have time to remind you." She said apologetically.
The bodyguard had recovered by now and shook his head gently, his voice a little guilty: "We are the ones who should be sorry. We were supposed to protect the young lady, but in the end, the young lady had to protect us. It was our dereliction of duty."
Gu Ranle pulled the corner of his lips and showed a faint smile: "Stop being polite. Can you stand up?"
The bodyguard nodded and slowly stood up with Gu Ranle's help.
The three of them then turned around and looked at the ground behind them that had just been shaking violently.
A huge dark hole now appeared on the originally smooth ground, like an open mouth, bottomless and full of unspeakable weirdness and danger.
Gu Ranle couldn't help but take a breath and felt a little scared.
If the three people had accidentally fallen down, the consequences would have been disastrous. Even if they were lucky, they would probably have broken their arms and legs.
Gu Ranle quickly picked up the searchlight and shone it into the cave.
But there was nothing to see except the endless darkness.
"Where are you, you bastard?" Gu Ranle asked.
[After I fell, my legs were caught by the mechanism again, and now I am right here.]
Gu Xiaohei's trembling voice in pain rang in Gu Ranle's ears.
"Can you see the light from the searchlight?" Gu Ranle asked again, his eyes fixed on the cave.
【able. 】
Although Gu Xiaohei's voice was weak, it was still clear.
"How deep do you estimate this hole is?" Gu Ranle frowned and continued to ask.
【I am a dog, I don’t know. 】
Gu Xiaohei replied unhappily, sounding a little grumpy.
"Then just wait for death." Gu Ranle deliberately angered him, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
[You woman, you...]
Gu Xiaohei was so angry that his voice changed, but he was unable to speak for a while.
Gu Ranle snorted coldly and put away his joking intention.
She looked around and it was dark all around. For a moment, she could not see any way to the bottom of the cave.
She thought to herself that such a deep hole must be at least dozens of meters deep, like a bottomless black hole, which made people feel scared.
She pulled out her cell phone to see if she could contact someone outside for help.
But when she saw the glaring words "No Signal" on the phone screen, her heart sank.
This place is like a corner forgotten by the world, completely isolated from the outside world.
Putting the phone back into his pocket, Gu Ranle looked up at the stairs, feeling troubled.
You can't climb up again to get the rope, can you?
Not to mention the time and effort it took to go back and forth, the tightly closed metal door alone was like an insurmountable barrier that she might not be able to open.
Even if it was opened, when she came back, Gu Xiaohei might have already... She didn't dare to think further.
How to do?
Gu Ranle frowned, his eyes full of anxiety and helplessness.
At this moment, she is like a bird trapped in a cage, with many skills but nowhere to display them. It is really like a good cook cannot cook without rice.
"Let's split up and look for any mechanisms, ropes or other things that can come in handy." Gu Ranle thought for a moment and said decisively.
The two bodyguards responded in unison: "Okay."
Afterwards, the three of them were like scattered stars, each looking carefully in different directions.
They searched very carefully, not leaving out any corner, and their eyes scanned the surroundings like searchlights.
Unfortunately, after all the effort, there was no gain, and a look of disappointment appeared on everyone's face.
Gu Ranle returned to the black hole again, picked up the flashlight and shone it into the hole.
With the help of the light, she found that the cave did not seem to be formed naturally, but rather seemed to be carefully dug out by humans.
The cave wall is as smooth as a mirror. If you fall in, there is no way out and it is almost impossible to climb up without the help of external force from above, unless you can grow wings and fly up like a bird.
fly?
A light bulb suddenly lit up in Gu Ranle's mind, and a bold and novel idea popped up instantly. The corners of her mouth rose slightly, and her eyes revealed a bit of excitement and anticipation.
