Chapter 8：Li, What’s Her Name Again? (2/2)

In brief, although the world's electricity and internet connections were cut off, Wei Huo could still figure out a way to survive in the wild. He made the torch and lit it up before entering the cave.

The cave was relatively small and narrow at the beginning. It got more spacious after moving deeper into it. Soon enough, Wei Huo could hear the sounds of water babbling. He grazed the cave wall, and his hands were instantly wet.

Wei Huo had come across numerous caves for the past 10 years, but most of the caves were not deep enough. He could reach the end only with just a few steps. However this time, Wei Huo felt that there was more to it than meets the eye.

The cave was very deep, almost bottomless.

The ground felt damper as he moved further inside. The cave reeked of a foul stench too. Suddenly, sounds of wings flapping blasted through the cave. It seemed like something was alarmed by Wei Huo's movement. The next thing he knew, a crowd of bats spiraled out from the fathomless cave.

Wei Huo immediately crouched down and dodged the bats.

Wei Huo knew right away where the foul stench came from when he saw the bats.

It was said that bats sleep hanging upside down. Do they also defecate upside down then? Wei Huo used to read comments from the Internet saying, ”If this question isn't coming out in the exam, I will sh*t upside down.” or ”If I don't get champion in RNG, I will fly upside down.”

'These people were spirits bat aren't they?'

Wei Huo kept walking ahead as the sounds of water babbling became more distinct. Not long after, Wei Huo set foot on a small stream.

At this moment, Wei Huo found himself in a dilemma as he came face to face with a fork in the road. One was going in the upstream direction whilst the other one was in the downstream direction.

If he followed upstream, he would progress deeper into the cave. On the other hand, if he had chosen downstream, he might exit the cave.

Wei Huo was torn between moving forward and exiting? He was caught up in a dilemma.

After a bit of thought, he felt that he should be more cautious. He should follow the downstream and explore it for a bit. If he found nothing much then he would go upstream.

He walked downstream after making his decision. He realized the cave became wider as he advanced forward. The water beneath him gradually deepened, and he was standing knee-deep in the waters. His torch crackled when it came in contact with water droplets dripping from the cave roof.

Right then, Wei Huo stopped in his tracks from feeling itchiness around his right ankle. He was about to lift up his leg and check what was going on when suddenly he felt something coiled around his shank. It was even climbing up his body. The feeling of icy-cold scales rubbing along his right leg brought goose-bumps to his skin.

It was snakes!

Wei Huo lowered his torch, just to find a black snake coiling around his leg. The snake was swirling up his body, seemingly targeting his private parts.

”F*ck!”

Wei Huo blurted profanities out of shock and he started jumping all over the place. He shook his right leg aggressively, attempting to shake off the snake. Consequently, he lost his balance after accidentally stepping on a rock and plunged into a puddle.

As he tripped, he knocked off a rock stuck on a small slope. The rock loosens and caused the waters to rush in and washed everything away. The water in the puddle rushed down the slope and brought along Wei Huo.

Wei Huo did not even notice that he was on a small slope. What was more important now was the fact that the slope was getting steeper. Wei Huo was flushed down by the voluminous water as if he was river rafting.
