The light from the quantum computer illuminated the path ahead. The cave floor was littered with rubble, looking very much like volcanic debris.
Jiang Zheyu noticed that the further he went into the cave, the hotter it got.
The chilling feeling she had anticipated from the underground cave did not materialize.
So why is the water so icy cold in this cave when it's clearly quite warm?
"Is the groundwater here?" Jiang Zheyu asked Shan Xun, who was standing next to him.
"This isn't groundwater; it's mountain rock water from near a volcano." Shan Xun glanced at her sideways. "The water here is warmer; you won't catch a cold."
Jiang Zheyu was slightly taken aback when she heard this. She remembered that the mecha seemed to have flown quite far away from the research institute base.
So you traveled all this way just to let her bathe in the water near the volcano because you were afraid she would catch a cold?
"Captain Shan, you're such a kind person." Jiang Zheyu looked at Shan Xun with genuine sincerity.
Dan Xun glanced at her, said nothing, and turned his head away. Wasn't he afraid that she would catch a cold after taking a cold shower and then get delirious from the fever?
He is someone who knows how to correct his mistakes in time.
Soon the two arrived at a lake in front of a cave. Wisps of mist were swirling around the lake, indicating that the water must be quite warm.
Dan Xun stopped and prepared to go outside: "You go ahead and wash yourself. I'll stay outside. Just call me when you're done."
"Okay, okay," Jiang Zheyu quickly agreed.
Dan Xun then left the place, walked to the bend in the cave, crossed his arms in front of his chest, leaned against the wall, and slowly began to wait.
After Shan Xun left, Jiang Zheyu looked in the direction he had gone and found that he had disappeared around the corner.
"Shan Xun, are you still there?" Jiang Zheyu was afraid that he would leave her behind, so she couldn't help but ask.
After all, she didn't know the way around this desolate planet.
Although he didn't think Shangxun would do that, seeing that he was all alone, he couldn't help but ask.
"Yes." Shan Xun replied coldly, the word echoing from around the corner of the cave.
Although it was only one word, Jiang Zheyu felt calmer after hearing his voice.
So I started planning to take a shower.
Jiang Zheyu took the quantum computer off his wrist and placed it on the ground beside the lake. Then he slowly reached out to test the temperature of the lake water and found that the temperature was just right, neither too cold nor too hot.
A beam of light from the quantum computer shone directly onto the lake water, creating a shimmering effect.
Jiang Zheyu didn't know how deep the water was, so he didn't dare to go in directly.
Jiang Zheyu slowly took off her clothes, piled them aside, and then used her hands to scoop up water and pour it on her body and face, washing away all the insect blood from her face and washing her hair as well.
It's really too difficult. Every time I kill bugs, I get splattered with their blood.
Jiang Zheyu sat on a clean rock, slowly pouring water. The sound of the lake water rippled through the air. Warm water slid down her fair body and her black hair, then dripped onto the rocks like raindrops, splashing up tiny water droplets and making a crisp sound.
These sounds echoed inside the cave, making the originally unclear sounds exceptionally clear, like an echo with added heavy special effects, long and crisp, with a textured sound quality.
Not far away, around the corner, Shan Xun leaned against the wall, his expression growing even darker.
His hearing was also very sensitive, so the sounds seemed amplified as they entered his ears, lingering there.
From the very beginning, the sounds of the female taking off her clothes and watering the plants were exceptionally clear to my ears.
The thought of a female taking a bath.
Dan Xun's face was dark and gloomy, with a hint of flush.
He must not have seen a female for over a hundred years, that's why he's acting like this.
But the image that comes to mind is a woman's fair and soft hands, and when she raises her head, you can see her slender and delicate neck. Her skin is so white, like it was carved from beautiful jade. The skin under her clothes must be even more delicate...
"Damn it..." Shan Xun cursed under his breath, disgusted with his own thoughts about females, while swallowing hard as his Adam's apple bobbed slightly.
On the other side, Jiang Zheyu was washing herself when she suddenly felt a tingling itch on her calf. She subconsciously looked down and saw a centipede with many legs crawling up her calf.
"Ah!" Jiang Zheyu hurriedly reached out and slapped the centipede away, then quickly stood up and took a few steps back, looking somewhat shaken.
"What's wrong!" Shan Xun instinctively darted out from around the corner, thinking that Jiang Zheyu had encountered some danger, and worry immediately filled his mind.
The body acts faster than the brain.
As soon as he emerged from around the corner, even though he was quite far away, he still caught a glimpse of the female's pristine, unadorned white back, her dark hair flowing messily down her back, her slender waist that could be encircled with one hand, and the curves of her legs, her fair calves...
Dan Xun froze on the spot, his gaze somewhat blank. Just as Jiang Zheyu was about to turn around, he awkwardly slammed back against the wall at the corner, his broad, sturdy back hitting the wall heavily, causing a shower of rubble and dust to fall down.
"No, it's nothing!" Jiang Zheyu quickly replied after being startled.
She glanced hurriedly at the cave, but Shan Xun had already crashed back into the wall at the corner, so Jiang Zheyu didn't realize that her back had been seen. Moreover, given the distance, Jiang Zheyu subconsciously felt it was impossible to see clearly.
She breathed a sigh of relief when she realized that Shan Xun hadn't come over. After all, she was completely naked, and it would be very embarrassing if someone saw her like that. So she explained again, "A centipede just crawled onto my leg and I was startled, but it's okay now. I've already swatted it away."
It's not surprising to find some insects in a wild cave, but centipedes have so many legs, and it's really disgusting and scary to have them crawling on your legs.
Jiang Zheyu quickly sped up her shower. Thinking of the other insects she hadn't seen, she finished quickly and put on her clothes.
"Captain Shan, I'm ready. Do you want to come and take a shower?" Jiang Zheyu asked Shan Xun, who was standing around the corner, after she finished getting dressed.
But no reply was received for a long time.
Shan Xun leaned against the wall, his face turning even worse, a dark reddish-black. The scene lingered in his mind, as if branded into it, and a burning heat rose in his lower abdomen.
He felt a pang of resentment towards his own excellent night vision.
