What the hell?

Xu Qin was confused, she did not understand what he meant.

Lu Sheng saw that she was blinking his eyes, revealing a puzzled look, and felt that it was really pleasing to the eye.

Xu Qin originally wanted to ask him how he came here, but before she could finish, her consciousness had already started to blur uncontrollably, and before long, she had fallen into a deep sleep.

Feeling her body emitting heat, Lu Sheng leaned back against the cave wall and gently scooped her up into his arms.

The ground was too wet. He didn't know if there would be any insects or if it was safer this way.

The night became colder and colder and Xu Qin's body became hotter and hotter. In the end, it actually felt like a small volcano.

Lu Sheng's big hand touched her forehead, and he couldn't help but knit his brows. It was too hot.

Flipping open the backpack that he carried, only half a bottle of the leftover water that Xu Qin had drank from before, and a few packs of biscuits, there was nothing that he wanted.

Then, he opened Xu Qin's backpack and saw the square towel, he took out some of his own water and poured it on Xu Qin's forehead.

When Xu Qin woke up, the moment she opened her eyes, she saw Lu Sheng's chin and the feeling of wetness coming from his body.

She and his body temperature seemed to be drying their clothes.

"Lu Sheng."

She opened her mouth to call him, but her voice was somewhat hoarse. It was truly rather unpleasant to hear.

Lu Sheng lowered his head, and saw that she had opened her eyes. He reached out and pulled down the towel on her head, then familiarly reached out to look at her forehead.

"It's not hot anymore. Do you want to eat something?"

he asked, opening the bottle and putting it to her lips.

Xu Qin drank a few mouthfuls of water and looked at him again.

Didn't he feel that their current position was really quite awkward?

She was curled up in his arms, and when she woke up, she saw his chin.

"Don't you think you should put me down now?"

After hesitating for a while, she still could not bear with the smell of the pink bubbles anymore, so she opened her mouth and asked in a testing manner.

"The ground is too wet, it's not good for your body, what do you want to eat?"

However, Lu Sheng didn't mind. The tone of voice and actions he used to speak to her didn't contain any unfamiliarity with it. Instead, he had a feeling that he should have done it in the first place.

"I have egg yolk pie in my backpack."

If he didn't mind, then why would she think so much?

In any case, there was no one else here, and the ground was also hard and wet. It was better for him to just hug it. It would be a fool if he didn't take advantage of the situation.

Of course, if he could ignore the unnatural redness on her face, she might be as open-minded as she thought.

While her brain was in a mess, Lu Sheng had already ripped open the wrapping bag and placed it next to her mouth.

Xu Qin was truly conflicted in her heart. When did they become so close?

He raised his hand and took it from Lu Sheng's hands, with his eyes lowered, he leisurely ate it.

"Right, have you noticed that this mountain is very strange?"

After eating a small piece of bread, Xu Qin saw that Lu Sheng's gaze was still on her face, and awkwardly tried to change the topic.

"Once I enter this place, my psychic-type abilities will no longer be usable."

On this topic, Lu Sheng's face also became heavy.

"There must be something here that can absorb brain waves, or that has changed the magnetic field."

"It seems like we should leave earlier. We can't stay here for long."

Xu Qin thought for a while, then replied, "I can't use this place anymore, and they don't have much food left. They will run out of food soon, so leaving here is the most important thing right now."

"The rain hasn't stopped. There are too many heavy industries in the suburbs. The pollution here is too severe. The acid of the rain is very strong, so you can't leave here rashly."

Lu Sheng looked at the rainwater outside the cave that showed no signs of stopping, and his voice was faint, yet inexplicably soothing.

"How did you get here?"

She was truly curious about this question.

"I met one of Luo Jun's subordinates at the safe base, so I came chasing after him." Lu Sheng said casually.

However, Xu Qin knew that the way of life in this world was not as relaxed as it was in the past.

"Where are your teammates?"

How could he be alone? She remembered that Zhou Jun and Wang Liang were by his side.

"They're still at the safety base, waiting for us to return."

That means, Lu Sheng had specially come out to find her?

"Do you want to sleep a little longer?"

His voice was filled with magnetism. After not seeing him for so long, it seemed to have warmed his heart.

Xu Qin nodded his head, then shrank his head. This kind of rainy weather, was the best time to sleep.

Just as he closed his eyes, he heard a slight noise that sounded like it was coming from somewhere close to his ear.

He suddenly opened his eyes and subconsciously raised his head to look behind him.

This was definitely not a hallucination!

Once or twice, he might have misheard. There must be something wrong with the third time!

Xu Qin picked up her big blade from the ground and struggled to get down to the ground, but Lu Sheng held her waist, preventing her from moving.

"Don't move, there's definitely something inside. Retreat carefully."

Xu Qin thought he did not notice, and turned to look at him as she explained in a serious tone.

Lu Sheng looked at her, who was riddled with scars, and was still thinking of ways to protect others.

"You stay here and I'll protect you."

As Lu Sheng said this, he took off his jacket that was almost dry and draped it over her body, then placed her outside the cave.

Xu Qin was still holding onto her big blade, and watched in a daze as he picked up the flashlight from the ground, and extended it out towards the cave.

She was already used to being the first one to go in when she was in trouble, so no matter what unknown danger she was facing, she never wanted others to bear the brunt of it. No one knew that she would be tired or scared, but this Lu Sheng however …

He shook his head and dismissed the thoughts that he shouldn't have.

The deeper they went, the smoother and more moist the cave entrance became.

He seemed to have stepped on something, and the flashlight shone down, revealing a huge snake skin on the ground.

"Put your clothes on and go out to hide. I think there's a python inside."

Lu Sheng said as he carefully looked inside.

Hearing that word, Xu Qin's heart trembled.

Python?

The image of the snake crawling on the ground involuntarily appeared in his mind, causing him to instantly feel a chill down his spine.

The mollusks she hated the most were snakes. Just seeing them crawling on her body made her hair stand on end.

However, could Lu Sheng deal with him alone?

The winter snake should be hibernating, and they just happened to disturb it. So, isn't the killing power of an angry snake more formidable?

Xu Qin didn't know, but her intuition wasn't right.

She remained where she was, partly because her legs hurt too much to move, and partly because she wanted to stay and see if she could help.

After all, Lu Sheng's psychic-type abilities could not be used, and he did not have a weapon.
