Chapter 19 (1/2)

When Gao Ge opens his eyes, he sees stars all over the sky through the mouth of the cave.

He gets up slowly and stares at the hole above his head, which is about three or four meters wide. Honestly, for a moment he is speechless.

He is quite puzzled, wondering what made this horse so horribly scared that it even fell into such a wide cave. Besides, there are no other corpses around, perhaps not all beasts are so stupid.

However, sitting on the ground and thinking about what has happened, Gao Ge realizes how lucky he is.

After all, the position he sat before is right under the hole, so if other beasts fall in, most of them would just fall on his head. With such a short distance between, he could be totally dead.

With this in mind, Gao Ge cannot help sweating in fear and realizes that he has just survived.

After a long time, he slowly stands up, rubs his sore back, then looks around, wondering where he should go.

Unfortunately, He couldn’t see anything after looking around. It’s dark already. Gao Ge could still watch the sky and recognize different stars while sitting outside. Yet he cannot see anything inside this dark cave. The only light that can be seen is the starlight that falls through the hole. Thankfully with this light, he can see his own fingers clearly.

Hiding under this hole, all he can hear is the cries of some insects and frogs around. Actually at this moment, he is very calm and sits cross-legged on the ground, and having a sense of isolation. He always feels that the sounds made by birds and insects are the most beautiful music in the world. Anyway, it is better than staying at home while listening to the roar of cars outside. Unfortunately, even in some rural areas, it is difficult to hear these most primitive sounds from nature.

Fortunately, he is not the kind of sentimental person. And he understands that not being able to hear such a sound is not necessarily a bad thing. From an objective point of view, it also means that the living standards of Huaxia people are gradually improving, so it is OK to feel something once in a while. If someone takes this kind of thing out there and exaggerates it, Gao Ge doesn’t know how many people will gossip like a couple of fishwives.

Then he begins to think how he can flee from here.

After his narrow escape, now he needs to find the way out of this inferno.

Suddenly he remembers a joke he read before.

“If you were in a hole without rope or ladder, how would you escape?”

“I’ll put a hole in my brain with a needle and float myself up with the water in my head.”

“Are you joking? How can there be so much water in one’s head?”

“Then why am I into that hole?”

This was merely a joke before.

But now, Gao Ge scratches his ear.

Wondering how he can get some water from his head.

Here’s still a dead horse, so if he could not escape, he can eat raw meat and drink blood for a while.

On the other hand, if he really can’t escape this hole, he will also leave after the end of the secret realm of Mount Duanlong. And the hole should disappear with this realm. The scariest thing is that he himself might disappear with it, this possibility does exist.

It’s horrible to think about.

Gao Ge thinks to himself, “Seriously? Die again before making a career? Am I a system failure that may be fixed anytime?”

While thinking about this, Gao Ge suddenly sees a faint blue light, about the size of a glass ball he had when he was a child, moving slowly towards him, and that light is taking an S route.
