The dark is always the heart

An excellent script is that every plot setting has a meaning of existence. The beginning of the chapter implies that the relationship between the heroine's husband and the second girl is not normal, so she will be absent-minded when driving, so that she accidentally kills her life and her daughter suffers innocently.

The second girl said that she also lost the most precious person in the car accident, but the second girl also felt guilty towards the heroine, so she tried every means to organize an expedition, at the cost of deceiving all her classmates to explore a completely unfamiliar place.

The terrifying scene in the play is that a terrifying face will appear at an unknown time within the limited light field of view, and there is also a sudden attack of an unknown creature appearing from nowhere, and the neck artery can be bitten in three or two times. It can be said to be a very efficient hunting method to make people lose their ability to resist. The bones and blood pools in the lair are even more chilling.

However, because the light in the underground caves is very dim, the vision of these creatures has long been degraded, and they can only rely on hearing to identify directions and hunt. So as long as you don't make a sound, you won't be locked, and naturally there will be no danger to your life. So, to the character who knows this and yells, I wonder what he thinks? Do you think it's okay to shout a word or two, or do you think you can be emboldened?

Then there is the problem that the female second accidentally hurts her companion and ignores it. Although it is a bit heartless, but in such a situation where life and death are unpredictable, who can guarantee that he will always stand on the high point of morality and save the dying? Even if you can drop your partner, will you be hated? It is also unknown if he is waiting for revenge. There is also the sentence of the second girl, "The heroine is not there, she will not leave if she says anything". It can be seen that the second girl is not cold-blooded and ruthless.

In the end, the heroine and the second girl saw that they were going to the exit, and they had great hope of rushing out together. But the heroine got off the mountain with a pick and ruined the second girl's leg. The situation at that time was to kill the second girl. Even having an affair with her husband, or even accidentally hurting a teammate, is not noble.

Therefore, it is a question worthy of consideration for us whether it is an open account or a secret arrow to hurt people. Although this kind of life and death situation is difficult to encounter in our lives, feelings, betrayal, passion, companionship, morality, belief, and human heart are things we need to learn to deal with.
