Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures

Hao Wenming has not spoken, his eyes have been staring at the blue hot spring. After Huang Ran finished speaking, Hao Wenming turned and went back into the passage, digging a few crystal stones on the wall. After that, Director Hao returned to the edge of the passage and looked at each other with Huang Ran. Both of them did not speak. Hao Wenming threw a crystal stone in his hand near the spring eye of the hot spring and saw the crystal stone fall into the hot spring instantly. It melted into a light white grease-like substance floating on the surface of the hot spring. This movement of Hao Wenming was a bit unexpected by Huang Ran. The expression on Huang Ran's face was a bit weird, but he quickly returned to normal. Huang Ran winked at the Mengqi chess next to him, and Mengqi nodded his head comprehensibly, and looked down at the watch on his wrist.

After touching this layer of grease, the hot spring became agitated in an instant. Originally, it sucked and released water like breathing, and the rhythm was also disrupted. The water level of the hot spring went up and down, as if it had become an asthmatic patient. After two or three minutes of this situation, the water surface of the hot spring suddenly became quiet, like a mirror surface, without any ripples.

Just when I thought the hot spring's abnormal movement was over, there was a weird sound from the location of the spring. At the same time, the water level of the hot spring dropped sharply, that is, within two or three minutes, almost all the hot spring water was pumped back into the spring eyes as if it were being pumped away by a pump. Without the hot spring water that could fluoresce, the place instantly became pitch black, and only a few remaining hot spring water in the low-lying areas gave off a little light.

Seeing that the hot spring was sucked away, Hao Wenming looked back at Huang Ran and said: "Yingquan meets spar, and the spring water flows back from it. Isn’t this written in Ruan Liulang’s experience? It’s not that I said, he just passed that way, right? "Huang Ran heard Hao Wenming say this, the smile on his face froze for a while, but immediately returned to normal, he still smiled and said: "Almost, almost. Director Hao, I remember that there does not seem to be in the data room of the Polling Bureau. Regarding the information about Yingquan, how do you...know?"

Hao Wenming's face showed exactly the same smile as Huang Ran's. The two people were fat and thin, and suddenly they all had the same expression. It's just that Hao Wenming's face became accustomed to him, but now he doesn't care to see him like Huang Ran's smiling tiger. It seems a bit weird to be pie. Director Hao smiled and said: "Huang Ran, it's not that I said you. There are many things you don't know in the polling bureau. How about? Come back with me to study for a few more years?

Huang Ran smiled and didn't speak. At this moment, Meng Qiqi looked at his watch and shouted: "It's a minute!" As soon as Miss Meng's words fell, Hao Wenming and Huang Ran turned around at the same time and spoke to us in unison. He shouted: "Back!" Huang Ran added: "Back to the passage!" Although he didn't know what was going on, he could tell from their expressions that it was not small. In addition, Mengqiqi and Zhang Zhiyan had already begun to run desperately into the channel, and the few of us did not hesitate to turn around and ran into the channel.

Back in the passage and ran for more than 100 meters, we stopped when we saw Mongolian chess and Zhang Zhiyan stop. Huang Ran and Hao Wenming followed. They didn't say a word, they just looked back in the direction of the hot spring together, as if something was about to happen there.

After waiting for about five minutes, it was still quiet outside. Fatty Sun was the first to lose his temper. He first asked Po Jun and me about Yingquan. As Huang Ran said, there was no information about Yingquan in the data room of the Polling Bureau. Fatty Sun, who did not get the answer, looked at Hao Wenming and Huang Ran. Finally, his gaze fell on Huang Ran’s face and said, “Old Huang, what is going on outside? Let’s talk about it, let’s have a long view. ."

Huang Ran looked at Hao Wenming and smiled and said to Fatty Sun: "You are guarding Director Hao, and you still have to ask me? How dare I make an axe in front of Director Hao?" Hao Wenming sneered looking at Huang Ran and just thought. When he was about to speak, a shrill sound suddenly sounded outside, as if he was blowing a trampled whistle.

As soon as this voice sounded, Huang Ran and Hao Wenming's faces simultaneously turned towards the hot spring. The shrill sound continued to rang for nearly a minute before it gradually became smaller. Just when I thought the sound was about to disappear, there was a loud noise like the sound of a cannon — "Boom"... Then the water crackled and fell. the sound of. A pool of light blue water stains were splashed in the range of forty to fifty meters from the edge of the passage. It's just that when these water stains touch the dense crystal stones in the channel, they dissolve with these crystal stones, and finally become a pile of grease-like sticky things.

When there was no water splashing in again, Huang Ran turned his head to Mengqiqi and said: "How long?" Mengqiqi replied, "Seven minutes and fifty-five seconds, from the time the water was pumped to the ejection again, a total of seven minutes and fifty. Five seconds." "Seven minutes and fifty-five seconds..." Huang Ran repeated it again. He looked back at Hao Wenming and said: "Seven minutes and fifty-five seconds, less than 300 meters away, even if you are afraid Has it passed?" Hao Wenming glanced at him and said, "How did he write this paragraph in Ruan Liulang's experience? How long did he use that time?" Huang Ran smiled helplessly and said: " The time for a cup of tea, how do you convert it into the current time?" "A cup of tea?" Director Hao frowned, "What kind of tea does he drink?"

Huang Ran smiled and ignored Hao Wenming. He turned around, walked to the edge of the wall, reached out and broke off a small crystal stone on it, and after throwing it back and forth in his hand a few times, he turned his face and said to us: "Okay, the preparation is over, we continue Go ahead, be careful for a while, try not to touch the remaining hot spring water, each of you prepare some crystal stones, if your skin touches the hot spring, just wipe the place where the hot spring is touched with the crystal stone immediately. There is no danger."

With Huang Ran's words, including Zhang Zhiyan and Mongolian chess, each of us prepared a dozen crystal stones for spare. When Huang Ran saw that we were ready, he walked to the edge of the passage and threw the crystal stone into the hot spring as Director Hao did just now. It was exactly the same as before. After some "struggle", the spring eye rose again. After a strange sound, the water level of the hot spring dropped rapidly. After a while, a large area of ​​hot spring water was drawn clean by the spring.

Huang Ran was the first to walk out of the passage, and along the road exposed at the bottom of the hot spring, he walked towards the entrance of the cave leading to the demon mound on the opposite side. Those of us followed him, and when we were halfway to the hot spring, a sharp whistle rang from the spring eye...

When the shrill voice sounded, we were all taken aback; then, almost everyone at the same time ran towards the hole leading to the enchanting courtyard. This whistle sounded only a few minutes ago, and it was like an alarm that the hot spring had re-erupted. After the whistle stopped, there was almost no pause, and the hot spring in the spring's eyes spurted out.

Didn’t you say there are still seven minutes and fifty-five seconds? Why has the alarm sounded in less than a minute? But at this time there is no time to think about it. There is still one hundred and fifty meters away from the entrance of the cave in front. As long as we can enter the cave before the whistle stops, we people will be safe.

Seeing that the entrance of the cave was getting closer and closer, the sharp whistle stopped abruptly when it was 30 to 40 meters away from the entrance of the cave. Unlike the previous whistle, there is no sign that the hot spring is about to explode. . My breath has not yet eased, and a sighing voice suddenly came from behind us: "Hey..."
