Chapter 213: 213
In the underground cave, at the end of the middle tunnel, Xiao Tan and Laughing Soul were finally back to the stone door . They took out a stone slab each and placed the slabs into the middle of the stone wall . The bagua was completed . The seams matched . At the same time, the Yin and Yang stone slabs glowed and turned on its own in the middle of the wall . Several seconds later, peddles and dust eased from the top of the door . Then came the sound of rocks grinding on each other . The door slowly rose to reveal the sight behind it .
Behind the stone door was no longer a cave but a rectangular stone room . There was even light source inside the room . Xiao Tan and Laughing Soul looked around from outside the door . There was nothing living like a monster inside, and there was no visible trap . Therefore, the two entered the stone room . The roof of the room was about five meters tall and uneven . There were many flowing substances embedded in the crevices . They did not look alive, nor did they look like high class items like the legendary Ye Ming Pearl . Instead, they looked more like the blue mineral from Starcraft but slightly brighter . There was another door at the opposite end of the room, but there was a valve-like mechanism next to the door . It was probably used to open the door .
"By the way… are you feeling a bit cold?" Xiao Tan looked toward Laughing Soul . When they were rushing, Laughing Soul had told Xiao Tan to walk ahead of her . Inside the tunnel, they had relied on the miner's hat and flashlight for light source, and they could not see far . Now that they had reached a more brightly-lit place, Xiao Tan got a good look of Laughing Soul's face . He saw the shivering shoulders and soon noticed a problem .
"It's fine… Achoo!"
When Laughing Soul was talking to Xiao Tan, her head was titled upward . Since her eyes met the light, as she sneezed, her head moved forward, and her saliva landed entirely on Xiao Tan's face . Xiao Tan wiped his face . "Take care of your body . "
"Hmm… How come you came away from the ordeal so fine?" Laughing Soul held her hand over her nose and mouth . She sucked in a deep breath before saying, "You went underwater as well… Is it true that idiots don't get cold?"
"As a doctor, I have to veto that falsehood that has no basis in medical knowledge at all," Xiao Tan replied . The next second, he leaned forward . "And secondly…"
Xiao Tan leaned closer to Laughing Soul and looked closely into the latter's eyes .
"What are you doing?" Laughing Soul instinctively shrunk her neck back as a small blush rose to her checks .
"Hmm… Your pupils have no sign of expanding," Xiao Tan commented while looking into her eyes . "This means that the situation is not that serious . Your body temperature should be above thirty-three degrees…"
As he put his thoughts into words, he said, "Even though you look slightly pale now and your lips are a little bit purplish in color, we have been walking for some time, and that is good enough exercise . Your temperature should be back on the rise… It is probably because of your wet clothes . "
Laughing Soul narrowed her eyes and said with a pointed tone, "You… take three steps back and maintain a meter distance from me . "
"What's wrong?" Xiao Tan was confused, but he still obeyed the order .
"When I just got out from the pool, there was indeed the freezing status on the menu . It has influence on my Stamina Points and movement speed, but the status is now gone . What's left is a small sense of discomfort . " Laughing Soul took a long sigh . "Doctor, we're playing a game . If there's something wrong with me, it is viewable from the menu . I don't need you to apply the four ways of diagnosis on me . "
"Only Chinese medicine practitioners use four ways of diagnosis . I am…"
"Don't interrupt! I am not done . "
"Oh…"
"From now on, under normal circumstances, you are not allowed to be within one meter of me, and you are definitely forbidden from doing any sudden movement that moves you closer to me like leaning your face over," Laughing Soul said in a warning tone . "Do you understand?"
"Er…" Xiao Tan was baffled for several seconds before nodding . "Sure, I can do that…"
