Chapter 381 Distress



"A door? What door?"

After Shi Haoyu had eaten and drunk his fill, he turned to Shen Yunfei.

At his age, he is curious about everything. Taking part in the competition should be very stressful, but having a captain like Jiang Wan who takes an unconventional approach makes him more playful.

For him, this game was like a jungle adventure.

"Let's go and take a look."

Jiang Wan waved his hand. Now that the Japanese team was entangled and had been beaten to the bottom, there was no need to cause trouble anymore.

A cornered dog will jump over the wall, and even a cornered rabbit will bite. This is only the first day. What if we are forced into a desperate situation and die together with them? There will be time to play slowly later.

Several people pushed aside the weeds that were as tall as a person, and under the guidance of Shen Yunfei, they saw the door.

An ancient, old, and somewhat strange door.

Weeds covered the doorway, and only a faint trace of bronze could be seen.

A few boys removed the cover and only then could they see clearly the thing that looked like a door but didn't look like a door.

It is embedded in the mountain, round in shape, like a huge manhole cover, and can probably accommodate one person in and out.

It is made of bronze and is covered with moss. If you look closely, you can see grooves all over it and there seem to be some brown traces, but I don't know what they are.

An ancient atmosphere hits you in the face, making it difficult to understand what kind of existence this is.

"What is this?"

Shi Haoyu was confused and subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch it, but was stopped by Jiang Wan.

"Don't go over there. If you encounter an unknown object in the wild, at least don't touch it with your hands."

Chu Mengqi nodded in agreement:

"What if a monster jumps out and bites your hand off!"

Shi Haoyu was speechless: "What monster? You look like a monster to me!"

Jiang Wan stopped the two people who were fighting and said:

"It's not a monster, but what if it's poisonous? How many people who explore the wild have suffered necrosis and amputation because of touching things they shouldn't have touched? You should know this better than me."

At least I have a grandfather who is a professor of environmental studies!

Shi Haoyu was not angry after being criticized. He lowered his head, chuckled twice, and scratched his head.

Although he is naughty, he admits his mistakes humbly.

Jiang Wan raised her head. It was not a very high hill, but it covered a large area. There were trees and vegetation growing on it, which looked lush green, like a small hill. However, it stood in the jungle, which seemed a little discordant.

She said hesitantly: "This... seems a bit like..."

"cemetery."

Qi'an took over the conversation. The evening sunlight shone obliquely on his face and he squinted slightly.

"It's a bit like that. There are many primitive tribes in the rainforest, so it's not uncommon to find cemeteries there."

Jiang Wan nodded slightly:

"No matter how unethical the organizing committee is, they shouldn't make a fuss about someone else's cemetery. Let's go first. It's getting dark. Let's find a place to stay."

After all, it's a competition. It would be bad if unexpected things affect the results.

Besides, she had no interest in tomb robbing. If a zongzi popped out, she didn't have any black donkey hooves with her, so it would be difficult to deal with it.

Only Shi Haoyu was still peeking towards the round door, as if he was very curious.

"Let's go, curiosity killed the cat."

Shen Yunfei called out, and Shi Haoyu turned back reluctantly.

"Go east."

Jiang Wan looked at the compass in her hand and felt a headache.

"Isn't it a bit immoral to step on someone's grave?"

The closer to the end point the better, of course, but the road we have to take next is right behind someone's cemetery.

"This hill isn't big. Let's go around it. Some tribes have the custom of building traps above their cemeteries just in case."

Qi'an's voice sounded, and everyone nodded in approval, walking around the edge of the cemetery.

Shi Haoyu was walking on the side of the team. After walking for a while, he suddenly felt something wrong with his feet, as if he had stepped on something protruding.

"Why is this road so uneven?"

Shi Haoyu frowned and stepped hard, but suddenly his feet felt empty and the flat ground opened up to both sides. He was stunned for a moment, and then only let out a scream.

"ah--"

"Haoyu!"

Jiang Wan turned around instantly and saw that Shi Haoyu had already fallen completely into the cave. Hearing the screams getting louder and louder, Jiang Wan hurried over.

"Haoyu! Can you hear me?"

The cave was pitch black and bottomless, and no one knew how deep it was. Shi Haoyu was completely immersed in the darkness and could not see anything clearly.

Everyone looked towards the cave worriedly, their anxiety evident in their words.

It took a long time for Jiang Wan's voice to be heard before Shi Haoyu's reply was faintly heard.

"It sounds... dark... I can't get up..."

Shi Haoyu's voice was intermittent and difficult to hear clearly, which showed how deep it was.

"What should we do now? Should we call for help? It's so deep, will brother Haoyu get hurt?"

Chu Mengqi was extremely anxious when her teammate, who she had been with day and night, was in danger.

Jiang Wan said decisively: "Go ahead."

Calling for rescue would mean Shi Haoyu is out, but no one knows the situation below, and we cannot joke with human lives.

Jiang Wan turned on her watch and was about to press the emergency button when she suddenly felt like she stepped on something.

Before she could lower her head, the ground beneath their feet opened up again, forming a larger hole. Before the four people could react, they disappeared from the ground in an instant.

As expected, a team must be well-organized...

The barrage was filled with confusion.

[Holy crap! What's going on? Why did it just disappear like that?]

[Is this also arranged by the league organizing committee? ]

【Please don't be in trouble! 】

Didn't Qi'an just say this might be a cemetery? So the Chinese team switched from playing a game to robbing graves?

[As long as you are brave, you won't be afraid of grave mounds, right?]

[Are you kidding me?! Who knows what's down there?! I hope the authorities can help us out soon!]

The moment several people fell, Commander Yang stood up suddenly.

"Rescue! I request rescue!"

Oliver was also a little shocked when he saw this scene, but when Commander Yang started to speak, his face became more intriguing.

"Captain Yang, are you sure? If that happens, the Chinese team will be out of the game."

Commander Yang frowned, his face serious:

"Sure, I can't gamble with the lives of my children."

"Why don't we wait and see, just in case everything is alright."

Oliver did not call the emergency number, but patiently advised:

"It hasn't been easy for the Huaxia team to get to where they are now. They are number one in both points and supplies. It would be a shame to give up now."

Giving up just one game is definitely not enough. If the Chinese team wins first place in the other two games, it will still be the champion.

If they can cause casualties this time, their future journey will be difficult.

It would be even better if the entire army could be wiped out...

Commander Yang's face was filled with anxiety. Those children had fallen into the cave and their lives were unknown, but the man in front of him was still trying to muddy the waters with him!

At this moment, no one from the other teams spoke. After all, for them, it would be best if something happened to the Chinese team.

Commander Yang was speaking normally when he suddenly saw the live broadcast go black.

The live camera actually followed into the cave???
