I leaned on Ji Lin'an's shoulder, feeling a little uncomfortable. Ji Lin'an suddenly reached out and touched my forehead: "Do you have a fever?"
I felt a little dizzy and reached up to touch my forehead: "No, it's not hot at all."
Ji Lin'an grabbed my hand: "Of course it's not hot anymore, your hands are burning hot."
Ji Lin'an let go of my hand and took out her phone: "We need to find a way to get out of here."
Seeing Ji Lin'an take out his phone and activate a skill called "Thousand-Mile Vision," I asked in surprise, "How do you have Thousand-Mile Vision?"
Ji Lin'an said, "You forgot, you specifically left the skill copyers for me to kill."
I forced a smile and said, "Oh right, you never mentioned it, I'd completely forgotten about it. When did you copy it? Does clairvoyance know?"
Ji Lin'an shook his head: "Not only his skills, but I also copied Wufeng and Kaka's skills, as well as Wei Bin's and some other survivors I don't know."
I exclaimed in surprise, "How did you do that? Doesn't copying skills require touching someone's head? I've never seen you do that before!"
Ji Lin'an was still using his clairvoyance: "That's a long story. To put it simply, the method of copying skills can be set by yourself. The copying time is 10 seconds, and you can set the copying method yourself. The default method is to pat the head. I also studied it for a long time before I found out that I could set the copying method myself."
I asked curiously, "So what method did you set up to be able to copy so many skills?"
Ji Lin'an put down his phone: "There are caves all around here, but I can't see anything useful. I don't see an exit."
I frowned: "I don't see an exit? If there's no exit, how did we get in? Who brought us here? Could someone have some kind of ability to leave us here?"
Ji Lin'an shook his head: "If there really is such a person, then it must be someone we don't know or have never seen before. My method of copying is to make eye contact with someone. I don't need the other person to look at me, but I must be able to see their eyes, and the distance cannot exceed two meters. I have copied the skill from the person who is two meters away from us and standing in front of us the closest time. I have not copied a skill that can do this."
I couldn't help but applaud: "So that means you have a lot of skills."
Ji Lin'an shook his head: "Not many, after all, we don't come into contact with many people."
I thought for a moment and glanced sideways at Ji Lin'an: "Why are you only telling me now?"
Ji Lin'an seemed to have known I would be angry. He put his phone aside and reached out to grab my hand: "I'm sorry, it's not that I didn't want to tell you, but although I have many skills now, I've found that my body gets worse with each skill I acquire. That's why I volunteered to learn boxing from Wei Bin. I didn't want you to worry, but my body is much better now."
My brow furrowed even deeper: "How could this happen? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ji Lin'an smiled and shook his head: "I don't feel uncomfortable anywhere, but sometimes I feel very tired and sleepy, and my energy isn't that good."
I pretended to be angry: "I don't believe you. If it were just that, you would have told me. Tell me the truth."
Ji Lin'an pursed his lips, looking somewhat helpless: "Okay, to be honest, when I first copied the skills of Thousand-Mile Eye and Kaka, I felt that my hands and feet were a bit stiff, especially at night when they would suddenly hurt a lot and I couldn't move my feet or hands. Later, when I copied the skills of Jiang Kexin and Chen Hu, the same situation occurred, and it was even more serious than the last time. I couldn't move my body either, but it only lasted for a few days before it got better. This situation only happens at night."
I gently punched Ji Lin'an: "Idiot, you should have told me! Why didn't you tell me? How desperate must you be, suffering all alone at night?"
Ji Lin'an smiled and said, "It's okay. As long as I don't copy skills, I won't feel pain."
I said, "Then why did you secretly copy so many skills? Have you been staying up all night lately?"
Ji Lin'an nodded: "I guess so, but at least the skills were copied over."
I pouted: "Why did you copy so many skills? It's such a hassle."
Ji Lin'an laughed and said, "That way I can protect you. Okay, lie down in my arms and rest for a while. You still have a fever. Let me see if I have any skills that can get us out of here."
I shook my head: "It's okay, I'll use my medical skills to heal you, you should be fine in no time."
After saying that, I activated my skill and used the special medicine. Within two minutes, I felt much better and my fever had subsided considerably.
Just then, Ji Lin'an's phone rang. It was Qianliyan calling: "Old Ji, Old Ji, come save us quickly."
Qianliyan burst into tears. Ji Lin'an and I exchanged a glance, sensing something was wrong. Ji Lin'an asked, "Where are you?"
Wufeng said, "We're in a cave. It's very dark, and we can't find the exit."
Ji Lin'an and I both looked rather grim. I said, "We're in the cave too."
The all-seeing eye exclaimed in surprise, "What? You're in the cave too? What's going on?"
Ji Lin'an asked, "Where are Wu Feng and Wei Bin? Are you together?"
Thousand-Mile Eyes said, "Yes, we were together. We were drinking in the room, and we got so drunk that we just fell asleep. When we woke up, we were here."
Ji Lin'an said, "Okay, don't rush, conserve your energy. I called Xu Qi, and he said he would send someone to rescue us."
I lowered my head and pondered, feeling that something was amiss: "Why are we all in the cave? If we offended someone and were thrown into the cave as revenge, why are Thousand-Mile Eyes and the others in the cave too, since they haven't made enemies with anyone?"
My phone suddenly rang at that moment. It was Jiang Kexin calling. I was overjoyed and quickly answered, "Hello, Jiang Kexin."
Before I could even hear a voice on the other end of the phone, I heard crying. I knew something was wrong, so I quickly said, "Jiang Kexin, where are you?"
Jiang Kexin calmed down a bit: "I don't know either. I woke up in a dark cave. Chen Hu and the child are gone. Su Yi, please come and save me."
I remained silent, unsure of what to say. Wu Feng and the others also heard what Jiang Kexin said. At that moment, we all realized that it wasn't about seeking revenge, but rather that we had all been thrown into the cave, and the only people who could do this at the same time were the people from the shelter.
I paused for a moment and said, "Jiang Kexin, why don't you rest for a while? We'll figure out a way to find you, okay?"
Jiang Kexin quickly replied, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
After saying that, I hung up the phone feeling uneasy. There was no word from the other end of the line. I looked at Ji Lin'an with a sense of melancholy. Ji Lin'an patted my shoulder and said, "It's okay, don't worry. Maybe the situation isn't as bad as we think?"
