Chapter 82: Mockery
"Teacher Fu, although I know now is not the right time, I think our two schools can cooperate and conduct archaeological activities on this giant tower of Mansmei together. After all, it is impossible for your school's archaeology department to complete the archaeological work quickly in such a large place. If other people know about this place, the results may not belong to either of our two schools."
"Teacher Guona, we can certainly cooperate, but we should find a way to leave here. This giant Mansimei Tower is not connected to the rock wall in the belly of the mountain. There are only two possible entrances and exits. Either it is underground or on the top of this giant Mansimei Tower. I personally prefer the latter."
"The top? Teacher Fu, you mean... the top of the tower that we can't see is connected to the top of the mountain?"
Nodding, Fu said: "Yes, in my opinion, the only exit of this giant Mansmei Tower should be at the top of the tower!"
"Hiss..." After taking a deep breath, Guona looked up at the top of the giant Mansmei Tower in front of him. The flashlight could only illuminate less than half the distance, and the tower above was completely shrouded in darkness, making it even more mysterious.
"Teacher Fu, although we lost a lot of the things we brought with us, it should be OK for us to last a week, right?"
"One week is very difficult, and it must be strictly rationed. I brought a lot of compressed biscuits with me. One piece and some water should be enough to meet daily needs. The food is sufficient, but the water may not be enough."
"We also brought a lot of compressed food with us, but we lost a lot of it. Even if we can't last a week, we should still be able to last three to five days. So I think it's better to investigate the situation nearby before entering this giant tower of Mansmei."
"That's what I thought. Why don't we take a break for a while, explore the outside of the Mansmei Tower, rest here for a night, and leave from the Mansmei Tower tomorrow."
"Teacher Fu, what should we do if there is no exit on this giant tower of Mansmei?"
"Then we can only return here and wait for rescue from outside. I hope we can hold on by then."
The conversation ended here. Fu and Guona each returned to the team and asked the people who were carrying things to take out half of the food and water for redistribution. They thought very clearly that if they asked them to take out all the food and water, some people would inevitably resist. Once conflicts arose among the people present, it would be a loss. Especially since many companions had died, human nature would become more sinister. Fu and Guona must find a way to avoid conflicts.
I have to say that Fu and Guona's decision was very wise. Even if they only asked for half of the things, many people's faces turned unhappy. Fortunately, it was only half of the things. Although those people with unhappy faces were unwilling in their hearts, they still took out the things and handed them to Fu and Guona.
Shalan took out a box of compressed biscuits and two cans of canned food and gave them to Fu. The food he brought was not much, but there were many tools. After all, Shalan never expected that something like this would happen.
In fact, Shalan himself was not so panicked. If there was no exit on the top of the Mansmei Tower, he could find a way to catch the snakes outside to fill his stomach. What's more, he had witchcraft, and his illusion did not distinguish between animals and humans, so he could safely catch the snakes outside.
They made a fire and cooked. In two large pots were boiled compressed biscuits and a paste made from cut cans and water. The taste of this thing was naturally very bad, but even with such food, each person only had a small spoonful, which was only enough to guarantee the basic energy needed for survival. As for more, there was no way to guarantee it.
Shalan picked up her lunch box, quickly drank the porridge inside, then licked all the porridge hanging on the lunch box. Finally, she poured a little water into the lunch box, rinsed it slightly, and drank the water in one gulp.
At this time, Shalan suddenly heard a sneer. He turned around and saw Amanda looking at the porridge in the lunch box with disgust. She threw it aside, took out a chocolate from her pocket and started eating it.
Shaking her head, Shallan had a new understanding of the stupidity of Amanda. She was still picky at such a critical moment. A small piece of high-calorie chocolate was enough to meet the energy needs, but the woman actually ate a whole piece of it and acted superior.
At this time, Fu walked in front of Amanda. She looked at the porridge that Amanda had left aside and Gro who was sitting next to Amanda and eating the porridge with difficulty, and said directly: "Amanda, are you still going to eat this porridge?"
Amanda was still a little afraid of Fu, but she couldn't eat the porridge at all, so she smiled and shook her head and said, "Teacher Fu, I don't need to eat this stuff after I eat these chocolates. It's too disgusting."
"Well, I understand then."
After saying that, Fu walked up to Shalan with the lunch box that Amanda had thrown aside and said, "Shalan, I saw that you are good at swordsmanship before. If there is any emergency in the future, you may be needed to take action, so you should eat this food. The more strength you have, the more hope you have to get out."
Looking at the lunch box handed over by Fu, Shalan nodded, and poured the porridge in the lunch box into her own lunch box, and then poured some water to rinse Amanda's lunch box and poured it into her own lunch box. She ate the contents of the lunch box in no time. Shalan looked at Fu and said, "Teacher Fu, thank you very much. If you have any problem, you can call me. I will help you as long as I can, but this is based on ensuring my safety."
Nodding, Fu said, "That's enough. I want to go see the Mansmei language carved on the Mansmei Tower. Do you want to go with me?"
"Of course, I am also very curious about this place, so I naturally want to take a look."
"Okay, I'll come find you later."
After Fu finished speaking, she took Amanda's lunch box and left to continue discussing something with Guona.
At this moment, Amanda, who was very dissatisfied with Shallan for eating her share of the porridge, suddenly said to Gro in her sharp voice: "I remember why I said he looked so familiar!
Senior Ge Luo, isn't that Shalan the country bumpkin we saw when we were buying equipment in Cynthia City before, pretending to be knowledgeable and pretending not to want anything when he didn't have money to buy it?"
