Wu Siyue stared at Gu Shi's overly young face and quickly started brainstorming.
Did he hold him when he was a child? Could it be a relative of his? From the tone of voice, he sounded like an elder. He didn't remember having such a young relative who was also of a higher generation!
But this face does look somewhat familiar.
Wait, judging by the person's appearance and age, he shouldn't be much older than me, so he's most likely his childhood playmate?
But he was often hospitalized when he was a child, so he had very few friends at all?
Wu Siyue quickly thought of several possibilities, but then crossed them out one by one in his mind. Looking at the familiar face, he simply couldn't remember the identity of the person in front of him.
After pondering for a while without any results, Wu Siyue finally decided to tell the truth. "I'm sorry, I don't remember much about my childhood. May I ask who you are?"
"Pfft." Gu Shi chuckled, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. I'm your brother Gu Shi. Long time no see, Siyue."
After hearing Gu Shi's answer, Wu Siyue couldn't help but raise his voice, "Brother Gu Shi!? It's you!"
After knowing the answer, Wu Siyue naturally matched this face with the gentle brother in his memory.
At that time, Wu Siyue was still young, and due to physical reasons, he could not interact with many people of his age. He felt a little bored after staying in the hospital for a long time.
But every time Gu Shi came to see him with his sister, he would bring Wu Siyue a bunch of gifts that he liked. These things were enough to make him happy for a long time. Over time, Wu Siyue became very close to his brother Gu Shi.
However, due to his studies, Gu Shi later reduced the number of times he visited Wu Siyue. In addition, Wu Silan also went to college in another place, so he and Wu Siyue gradually became estranged.
Gu Shi gently patted the dazed Wu Siyue and said, "You've come back to your senses. Are you feeling any worse? Do you want to eat something first?"
As a result, with just a light pat, Wu Siyue's body suddenly fell limp in his arms.
"Siyue? Siyue, are you okay?" Gu Shi immediately spoke anxiously.
In such a predicament, Wu Siyue finally met a familiar companion, someone he had trusted before, and his originally tense nerves relaxed at once.
The fact that a person could survive for so many days without drinking water and in such poor conditions is enough to show Wu Siyue's tenacious spirit.
But now his body has reached its limit, and he can still talk clearly only relying on a breath to keep him going. Once the breath is released, the discomfort in his body that surges up instantly overwhelms Wu Siyue.
Wu Siyue leaned on Gu Shi and adjusted his breathing for a long time before speaking in a halting voice, "Don't worry, huh, I'm fine, it's just... I haven't eaten for too long... I feel a little weak..."
After hearing this, Gu Shi quickly stuffed a portion of easily digestible food into Wu Siyue's hand, and also wet a towel with water and handed it to him.
When Wu Siyue's condition recovered a little, Gu Shi began to ask him about the whereabouts of the other two people.
"Uncle Wu told me that three of you are missing, but now you are the only one here. Where are the other two?"
Wu Siyue shook his head, "I don't know either.
Although we were swept into the swamp together, I was the only one left when we finally landed in this cave."
"It happened so suddenly that we were completely unprepared and were dragged in without knowing what was happening. They even confiscated our weapons and the things we brought in.
When I was thrown here, not only did the staff in my hand disappear, but even the space ring on my hand disappeared with it. Otherwise, I wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable situation."
After listening to Wu Siyue's description, Gu Shi subconsciously glanced at his staff. It turned out that the force he felt just now was not an accident. The monster really intended to knock down his weapon, but failed.
But since he and Wu Siyue fell into the same place, is it possible that these monsters separated them according to their professions?
The other two people who disappeared with Wu Siyue were both warriors, one used a sword and the other used a knife. It is possible that these two people were imprisoned together.
Gu Shi asked, "Siyue, have you encountered any danger since you came here?"
He tried to infer the situation of the other two people from Wu Siyue's experience. If there was a high probability that they were safe, then their next actions could be slightly adjusted.
If there is danger, there is no other way, so Gu Shi is prepared to push forward directly. As long as he kills all the monsters, he can save the lives of the other two.
Wu Siyue waved his hand, "No.
I found that I didn't take any risky actions after I lost my weapon. After all, I am just a mage and my physical fitness is not that good. In this state, I am like a piece of fish on a chopping board.
I've been hiding here the whole time, and nothing unusual has happened. It's as if those monsters have forgotten me."
Then he continued, "At the beginning, I also tried to get out of this cave, but as soon as I stuck my head out, I found a monster guarding it, so I immediately hid back."
"It's a wise choice. In this situation, the most correct thing to do is to prioritize protecting yourself." Gu Shi couldn't help but praise him.
Gu Shi thought for a while, took out a defensive item from the space ring, then took out an empty space ring from the secret pocket of his robe and carefully put some supplies into it.
Gu Shi has the habit of carrying multiple space props with him. He thought that eggs should not be put in one basket, so without affecting his activities, he picked and chose and put a lot of small space props on his body.
After doing this, he handed the two items to Wu Siyue and reminded him, "You must take good care of this defensive item. No matter what happens, don't let it leave your body.
I'm going to go check out the situation. Siyue, just stay here and don't leave easily. I'll try to come back to you as soon as possible."
"I've put some supplies in this space ring, so remember to take them. If anything unexpected happens, the supplies inside will be enough for you to use for quite some time."
"Thank you, Brother Gu Shi.
Remember to be careful when you go out. Since I can survive safely without combat power, these two warriors will definitely be fine too."
After Wu Siyue took the space ring and props, he immediately put them on his body.
Gu Shi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm still very strong. You should take care of yourself. Besides eating something, don't forget to clean yourself up. I've filled your space ring with a lot of water."
