A Real Man Isn’t Afraid of a Little Demon

    Yu Chu began to laugh, then covered his chest and coughed.

    He felt something swaying around his wrist, reached out and felt it, and found that it was a chain, with a cross and a small ball at the end, wrapped around his forearm several times.

    This should have been pulled from Yu Shidi's neck when he fell off the cliff. After being unconscious, it was not swept away by the sea, but wrapped around his arm.

    Yu Chu rubbed the gold chain, untied the buckle and hung it around his neck.

    However, he went to touch the phone and found that his pockets were empty, thinking that he was just working in vain, he couldn't help laughing bitterly.

    "I can't seem to see." He said to Zhou Mu.

    Zhou Mu: "I can't see either, don't worry, I'm not blind, we are in a hole."

    Only then did Yu Chu notice that the voices of the two had echoes, they were in a confined space, the stones under him were also very damp, and the air was full of the salty smell of sea water.

    He moved, trying to prop up his body and sit up, but Zhou Mu grabbed his arm: "Don't move, there's the sea next to you, I'm going to rescue you when you fall, I really don't want to move Now, let me rest for a while."

    Yu Chu just woke up from a coma, but his body was actually very tired. Hearing Zhou Mu say this, he closed his eyes and stopped moving.

    Both of them closed their eyes in silence, and the surroundings were quiet. After a while, Yu Chu suddenly asked, "Zhou Mu, why did you save me?"

    Zhou Mu replied in a perfunctory tone: "Because it happened after falling into the water, it's a matter of hand."

    Yu Chu smiled and said, "You are so good at water, even if Yu Shiqing is thrown off the cliff, you can swim for a few kilometers, and then go ashore without knowing it. In this cave, you should have chased me in before you entered, right?"

    "Maybe." Zhou Mu replied noncommittally.

    Yu Chu turned his head in his direction in the dark and said, "So I asked you why you wanted to save me, this is very dangerous, in fact, if it were you, I would definitely not chase after you. saved."

    "You're being honest." Zhou Mu suddenly laughed softly, and Yu Chu felt that the surrounding air seemed to vibrate with his chest.

    He was silent for a moment and then said: "When I was very young, my parents died, and the only people who were close to me were my sister and your grandmother. They both left one after another, so I can only take care of them. Look at the people they care about in this world."

    Yu Chu felt a feeling that he couldn't describe, and replied, "Oh."

    The two stopped talking, closed their eyes and rested, Yu Chu soon fell asleep. I don't know how long I slept this time, and when I woke up, I found myself lying in a warm and solid embrace. He rested Zhou Mu's thigh under his head, his steady heartbeat beside his ears, and his body was surrounded by his two powerful arms.

    Yu Chu's body was a little tense for a moment, but he didn't want Zhou Mu to be alert in his sleep, so he woke up instantly and asked in a hoarse voice, "Awake?"

    "Yes." Yu Chu replied in a low voice.

    Zhou Mu raised his head and moved his neck. He fell asleep leaning against the wall of the cave just now, and now his neck is a little sore. Yu Chu moved out calmly, wanting to leave his embrace.

    Who knew that this rock was really small, so he moved it out a little, and one leg was hanging in the air, almost falling into the water.

    "Don't move." Zhou Mu's arms tightened, and he ordered lazily.

    Yu Chu didn't move anymore, so she just lay in his arms. But after such a sleep, he felt that his body had recovered, his hands and feet had strength again, and even his chest was not so painful.

    Zhou Mu said: "Let's get out of here now, can you dive?"

    When he was swimming in the sea every day, Yu Chu was lying in the shallow sea, like a motionless turtle, he suspected that this person could not swim at all.

    "A little bit."

    "How much is it? How long can you hold your breath?" Zhou Mu asked.

    Yu Chu frowned: "I used to be able to hold my breath in the water for eight minutes and twenty seconds, but now I don't know."

    This body has not been trained, he is not sure how long he can hold his breath, it is estimated that it is the level of a normal person, about four or five minutes at most.

    Zhou Mu said, "Try it, you were in a coma underwater for nearly ten minutes just now, didn't you rescue it? After you swim out of the hole at most, I will rescue you again."

    Yu Chu:…

    Having said that, Zhou Mu didn't really plan to let him go into the water, he put the man down carefully and squeezed into a seat, he said, "You just wait here, I'll take a look at this place. How long is the cave, and if I'm not wrong, it should be the entrance of the cave not far ahead, and you can go ashore."

    Yu Chu felt a little panic in his heart, he wanted to pull his arm out of conditioned reflex, and he didn't react until he stretched his hand in the air, hurriedly retracted back, and calmly replied, "Okay."

    Zhou Mu couldn't see his actions, so he just said: "Then sit and don't move around, be careful to fall into the water, I'm not by your side, no one will catch you after you fall already."

    "Okay." Yu Chu said again.

    The clatter gradually faded away and disappeared, and the cave was quiet again, only to hear the whine of the wind blowing on the cave wall from somewhere.

    Yu Chu sat in the dark, tilted his head slightly, raised his ears to listen to the movement in the distance, and counted the time silently in his heart.

    Fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen... He should have swum out some distance.

    Fifty-six, fifty-seven, fifty-eight, another minute passed...

    Time passed slowly, but Yu Chu became more and more uneasy. He began to imagine whether Zhou Mu would encounter any undercurrent, or hit a rock in the dark, and be in the water like he started Comatose.

    He didn't want to be left alone, staying in the boundless darkness, trapped in this cave.

    Thinking like this, time seems to have passed for a few minutes, his heart is gradually occupied by panic, and his heartbeat is getting faster and faster.

    No, no, I'm going to have a look. he murmured.

    Just as he was about to go into the water, there was a sound of the water being plucked not far away, he stopped the action of launching, and asked in a trembling voice, "Is it Zhou Mu?"

    "It's me." The familiar deep voice replied.

    Zhou Mu touched the wall of the cave with his hand and swam forward. When he touched the stone, he turned over and jumped up, the water splashed all over the ground.

    "I explored this hole and swam for a few minutes, the bottom of the hole began to rise, and the water became bright, and then I can definitely go out in front. Just swam out for four minutes At a distance of 100 feet, there is a roof exposed on the surface of the water, which can be ventilated in the middle. However, the space is relatively small and can only accommodate one person to breathe, but there is no problem at all. After we get there, we can take turns to breathe.”

    Zhou Mu twisted the water on the T-shirt while telling Yu Chu about the hole. When he finished speaking, he thought that Yu Chu would happily ask this question and that. He didn't say a word.

    "Why, don't you want to be here anymore?" Zhou Mu's tone was joking: "Is it still frightened by staying here alone?"

    Yu Chu still didn't speak, and his breathing was a little short. Then he noticed something strange and reached out to probe Yu Chu's forehead.

    "Are you uncomfortable?" His hand touched the soft strands of hair in the dark, and he went down and stayed on Yu Chu's forehead.

    The tentacles are slightly cool, there is no fever, everything is normal.

    "Why did you come back after so long?" Yu Chu's voice was a little sharp, like a question.

    "Didn't I want to figure out the route? That must be—" Zhou Mu first explained, then paused in the middle of the sentence, and after two seconds of silence, he thoughtfully replied, "Don't worry, I will definitely come back. pick you up."

    Yu Chu made a low hum after a long time, then changed the subject and said, "Since you can get out of this hole, let's go into the water now."

    "How is your recovery?"

    "No problem."

    "Okay, let's go into the water." Zhou Mu said.

    He was about to go into the water with his hands on the rock, and suddenly felt that the back of his T-shirt was being pulled. He didn't forcefully break free or let Yu Chu let go, he just quietly opened his fingers, and then moved to his waist, saying, "You grab this."

    Yu Chu grabbed the T-shirt on his waist with one hand and went down into the water with the other hand on the stone. The two took a deep breath together and dived into the water.

    However, he held Zhou Mu's clothes in his fingers, and his knuckles could touch the warm skin, so that he wouldn't be too frightened, he just clenched the fabric more tightly, lest it slip off go out.

    Shui Liu and Zhou Mu were both leading Yu Chu forward. He was afraid that strenuous exercise would slow down his breath-holding time, so he didn't use too much force, and only gently swayed his legs.

    Fortunately, he could feel that Zhou Mu was by his side, he knew how powerful this person was, so even if his lungs started to swell and hurt again, he didn't panic.

    When he reached a certain position, Zhou Mu suddenly stopped, grabbed Yu Chu's arm with his backhand, and pushed him up.

    Yu Chu immediately understood his action, swung his legs, and touched the cave wall with one hand. Then he raised his head, a face suddenly appeared out of the water, and he took a deep breath.

    This is the place where Zhou Mu said that he can take a breath in the middle. The space is very small, only one person can show half of his face. When Yu Chu was breathing with his mouth open, Zhou Mu sank in Beside him, hands on his waist.

    Yu Chu took a deep breath and sank into the water, Zhou Mu floated up again.

    It took him half a minute to breathe this time, and then he took a deep breath and sank.

    Just when Yu Chu thought they would continue to sneak, Zhou Mu pushed him up again, and patted his waist with his hands, signaling him to continue breathing.

    When Yu Chu breathed a long breath, Zhou Mu continued to move forward.

    After swimming along the wall of the cave for about three minutes, Yu Chu felt that the water flow around him accelerated, and the water temperature was no longer so cold and biting, at least several degrees higher. The vision ahead began to brighten, and a hazy light appeared in the water waves.

    This is going out. His heart throbbed violently.

    Zhou Mu also sped up his strokes, Yu Chu clutched his T-shirt tightly, and suddenly remembered the introduction of marine fishes he saw on TV two days ago. Fish, it has a lazy temperament and a slender body, and loves to swim on the belly of sharks.

    He felt that in the current situation, he was like an Indian fish, riding the wind and waves with Zhou Mu's shark.

    The light is getting brighter and brighter, you can already see the lacquered black hole walls on both sides, and the seabed a few meters below your feet.

    The water will be shallower and will surface soon.

      .

    The figure was carrying an oxygen cylinder and had long webbed feet, two frogmen.

    The frogman also found them and swam in this direction. Swimming closer, the frogman in front took off the oxygen mask on his face and gestured to put it on Zhou Mu's face.

    Zhou Mu waved his hand and pointed to Yu Chu behind him, motioning him to bring it to Yu Chu, then he swung his two strong legs and rushed forward like a swimming fish.

    Yu Chu was put on the oxygen mask, took two greedy breaths, and then returned the oxygen mask to the frogman. The frogman grabbed his back collar and moved forward quickly, and after a minute, he burst out of the water with a clatter.

    A full moon hangs overhead, illuminating the entire sea with sparkling waves, like a handful of broken gold. Yu Chu wiped the water on his face and turned his head to look around. When he saw Zhou Mu floating on the water not far away, gasping for breath, he was obviously relieved.

    "Team Xie!" An earth-shattering shout came from behind.

    Yu Chu turned back and saw that there was a large motorboat behind him, and a few people were standing on the deck, waving to this side. And one of the figures crossed the side of the boat, plunged into the water, splashed several meters high, and rushed over the waves.

    Yu Chu turned his head quickly, saw a smile on Zhou Mu's face, raised an arm and waved at them.

    He smiled happily, showing his white teeth in the moonlight, the lines of his handsome face softened, and his expression was a relaxation that Yu Chu had never seen before.

    It turned out that his last name was Xie.

    The first thought that came to Yu Chu's mind was this.
