"Bang!"
With a loud bang, their eardrums hurt.
Samuel and the pangolin bent down and covered their ears almost at the same time as the rubber mud smashed down.
However, what made the other three not expected was that the impact of the huge "rubber mud" did not happen. Except for the sound of pain, there was no discomfort.
"Alas, three young people are even more afraid of death than me." Glancing at the three people who closed their eyes and dodged, the old man shook his head helplessly and sighed.
"Come in. The ground is freezing." After the old man finished speaking, he moved his hand slightly and suddenly heard a roar.
With the old man's words and the roar, the three of them opened their eyes at the same time, only to see that the “rubber mud" above had indeed smashed down, but it did not completely smash down. Instead, it gave them a distance of about one meter.
In front of them, with the roar just now, a small door about 50 centimeters long had been opened. Through the small door, one could vaguely see that the space inside was very big and the lights were bright.
The old man was not tall. He almost bent down and walked in. Samuel and the others were in a much worse situation. However, as the old man said, they seemed to feel colder and colder when they stayed under the rubber mud. They could only quickly get into the door.
As soon as they entered, the old man closed the small door in time.
This was a house under the ground of about 100 square meters. It was not very high, about two meters high. There was much miscellaneous equipment in the house, most of which were daily necessities. There was a bed in the house. Although the temperature in the room was extremely warm, there were still two thick quilts on the bed.
The quilts had been used for a long time, so now it was a little black and looked very dirty.
"Is this where you live?" The pangolin looked around and couldn't help but ask.
The old man nodded gently and walked to the stove next to him. He opened the stove door, threw some charcoal in, closed the stove door, and answered, "Yes."
"The house is simple and crude, but the advantage is that it is several meters deep underground, so it can resist the cold. It can be counted as the last life-saving house." The old man smiled, took the kettle from the furnace, picked up some cups made with roots, poured some water, and put them on a simple table. "Drink some water, you three."
The three looked at each other, walked over, and sat down at the wooden table. At this time, Samuel asked, "By the way, sir, what was the white dot just now?"
