Chapter 692 No One Came to Collect the Body
"Master Jiu, the lower we go, the lower the temperature. Some people can't hold on any longer." Ten minutes later, Lin Yi's voice came through the intercom.
"Call the captain, we request to return, pull us up." The voices of the rescue team were difficult, as if they were in great pain.
Huo Shaoting's heart seemed to be grabbed by something invisible. These men went down wearing complete equipment, and their voices were trembling from the cold. Wouldn't it be even colder down there?
When Bai Zhi fell, she was wearing a down jacket and didn't bring an oxygen tank. Would she... Huo Shaoting didn't dare to think about it. He rearranged the half-worn equipment on his body, put on the mask, pulled the life rope and jumped directly down.
"Mr. Huo!"
"Mr. Huo!"
"Hey, Chinese!"
The people at the scene exclaimed.
Huo Shaoting couldn't hear anything, only the whistling wind in his ears.
His jump had a sense of recklessness. The rope was floating in the air, and the strong sense of weightlessness made his head dizzy. The oxygen poured into his lungs in big gulps, which somewhat helped him regain some reason.
The headlamp shone a bright light in the dark pit. Soon, he saw the same fluttering ropes around him, and below were the rescue team and Long Jiuyan's people.
Their headlamps emitted faint beams of light, like fireflies dancing in the dark night.
"What's the situation?" Huo Shaoting pressed the switch of the intercom on his body and asked.
Lin Yi didn't expect Huo Shaoting to come down, and immediately looked at this actor with a new look. "It's bottomless below, the rope length is limited, and it's very cold in here. We may have to go up in advance."
"According to the current situation, the Chinese woman may be in danger." An Australian rescue team member's voice was full of regret.
"I think so too. It's very cold here, and there is not enough oxygen. It's a pity that such a young woman died in such a desolate place in a foreign country."
"Don't talk nonsense, Bai Zhi will definitely be fine!" Huo Shaoting shouted loudly.
He looked around and saw that everyone's ropes were almost at the bottom, but the pit below was still bottomless.
"I'll go down first." He took a deep breath, untied the rope and jumped down directly in front of everyone's surprised eyes.
Everyone was shocked by Huo Shaoting and couldn't recover for a while.
"This Chinese man jumped down?"
"He seems to be the husband of that Chinese woman. They committed suicide for love."
Lin Yi and others looked extremely ugly. They didn't expect that this pretty boy would take the lead.
He immediately contacted Long Jiuyan above, "Jiu Ye, Huo Shaoting untied the rope and jumped down."
Long Jiuyan's face suddenly turned pale. That pretty boy was really strong.
What's the use of being strong! He died in vain.
"Stupid!"
Long Jiuyan kicked the subordinates around him down with one foot. Not satisfied with one, he kicked down three subordinates one after another.
After that, Long Jiuyan supported himself with one hand and climbed down the trap pit.
"Mr. Long! You can't go!"
"You didn't wear a protective rope!"
The follow-up director was pale. She was only in her twenties and her life had just begun. What did she experience in this day?
The chief director just came over and heard that Huo Shaoting had untied the rope and jumped down, and Long Jiuyan had also gone down. He was so scared that he fell to the ground.
If these two people were in trouble, he would not have to live.
"Pull up the cordon. From now on, no one except the search and rescue personnel is allowed to approach." The search and rescue team leader commanded the remaining team members to stand guard and pull the line.
He looked angrily at the group of Chinese who were driven more than ten meters outside the pit, "A bunch of idiots, one after another scrambled to jump down and die."
Huo Shaoting felt a stronger sense of weightlessness all over his body. During the long fall, he felt that his bones were about to be blown apart by the cold wind.
He didn't know when he became so brave that he actually loosened the rope. But when he heard those people say that Bai Zhi might have died, he didn't care about anything. Bai Zhi died alone in a foreign country, it was too lonely.
In this life, he had everything. He became famous at a young age and bought a big house for his parents. There is also a younger brother at home, and his younger brother will get married soon. It is enough for him to be filial to his parents. He can rest assured to accompany Bai Zhi.
The wind whistled in his ears, and the oxygen was quickly exhausted. When he was dizzy, he suddenly felt a warm current. His body, which was frozen by the cold wind, gradually warmed up.
When people are extremely cold, they will have hallucinations. Huo Shaoting thought he was going to die. He tried to open his eyes and wanted to find Bai Zhi. Even if he died, he wanted to be with her.
At this moment, he was stunned and hurriedly took off his protective goggles. With a splash, he fell into a pool of water. A strong warm current surrounded him.
Is this... a hot spring? !
Huo Shaoting was ecstatic. While paddling hard, he observed the surrounding situation.
The headlamp had a limited illumination area, but he could roughly see the surrounding environment.
The stone wall not far away was uneven, and the place polished by water was relatively smooth. He wanted to go ashore to take a breath, but his clothes were soaked, and the life-saving equipment became a burden to drag him.
Huo Shaoting swam hard and took off the extra things on his body. He shouted loudly to the people around him: "Bai Zhi!"
Before Huo Shaoting could hear his voice, something suddenly fell on his head, and he instinctively dodged to the side.
Plop——
A heavy object hit the hot spring fiercely, splashing a large amount of water.
Before Huo Shaoting could see clearly, two more plops came from the hot spring.
This time he saw clearly that someone had fallen from above.
One person jumped out of the water first, gasping for breath, and shouted in surprise: "I'm still alive!"
Then, the other two people also emerged from the water.
It was dark all around, and Huo Shaoting's headlamp was the only light, which they caught at the same time.
One of them asked uncertainly: "Are you Mr. Huo?"
Speaking Chinese, it should be Long Jiuyan's people, Huo Shaoting immediately felt relieved, "It's me. Bai Zhi may be nearby, everyone, come with me to find someone."
Several people survived the disaster, thinking that Jiu Ye had just kicked them down in anger. According to Jiu Ye's temper, even if they died in a foreign country, no one would come to collect their bodies.
If they find Bai Zhi, they may be able to make meritorious deeds and let Jiu Ye spare their lives.
Weighing the pros and cons, the three nodded in unison, "Mr. Huo, let's go find Miss Bai now."
The area of this hot spring is not large. Several people swam in the water for more than half an hour and finally explored the hot spring.
Huo Shaoting discovered that there seemed to be an undercurrent under the hot spring, and he was accidentally swept over.
Fortunately, the undercurrent was not turbulent, and following the direction of the water flow, he was brought to the shore of the hot spring, and there was a very deep cave inside.
"Hey, come over here."
Huo Shaoting shouted at the three people.
