Chapter 0411: Underworld
After leaving the girl in the power suit for some distance, Zeng Cheng estimated that it was safer, so he took out a flashlight from the Baicao space. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info This flashlight was originally placed in the Baicao space, but he didn't expect it to be useful now.
After turning on the flashlight, Zeng Cheng finally discovered what kind of environment he was in, this was an extremely vast natural cave, and this cave was full of green plants, like a natural huge forest, and there was no end in sight.
Although you can't see the sky, since plants can grow here, there must be sunlight coming in, which also shows that there are gaps in this cave, and having a gap means that you can get out, which is undoubtedly the best news for Zeng Cheng.
As he walked, Zeng Cheng suddenly found that the ground under his feet had become softer, and he used a flashlight to shine it and found that his feet were full of rotten fallen leaves.
Leaving this low-lying and damp place, a few hundred meters away from the underground river, Zeng Cheng found a flat and dry stone platform and lit a fire with firewood to brighten the nearby light.
A few wild beast screams rang out from the woods, and as the branches of the trees snapped, Jier fell silent.
In such an environment, Zeng Cheng also felt a little scared and got closer to the fire. I don't know what terrible beasts are in the depths of the darkness, and the closer to the light and the source of fire, it seems to be safer.
Suddenly, a stone smashed from the depths of the forest onto the fire, and the flying sparks splashed on Zeng Cheng's body, startling Zeng Cheng.
However, when he swept the woods with his divine sense, he was suddenly a little annoyed, he was actually teased by those little guys!
Zeng Cheng picked up a stone and threw it back at the place where the stone came.
The stone seemed to have been smashed into the calm water, and the sound of panicked flight was heard in the forest, like the sound of countless wild beasts, and even the hooves of horses.
On the branches, black shadows curled up like villains jumped up and down on the branches, and in a blink of an eye, they left the firelit area.
Ang hum, I don't know if it was a wild donkey or a wild boar, ran to the depths of the forest, and only then did he shout at the direction where Zeng Cheng was.
"There are so many wild animals?" Zeng Cheng's eyes lit up, and he became a little excited.
Although there are a lot of fruits and vegetables in the Baicao Space, he is a carnivore and can't live this kind of monk's life.
Because he found that there were many animals in it and solved the problem of meat, Zeng Cheng was in a good mood and decided to explore this strange cave first. If you can find an exit, it's best to find a safe place to stay, after all, there are a lot of wild beasts here.
Just thinking like this, a few baby cries suddenly came from the direction of the underground dark river, and this sudden sound startled Zeng Cheng, but then his face was happy. Because he could hear it, the cry was not really from a baby, but the cry of a baby fish.
Outside, he may not dare to eat this kind of protected animal, but now he is in this ghost place where he doesn't know where it is, he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, and it is not too much to catch a few baby fish for lunch, right?
While the fire had not been extinguished, Zeng Cheng found an arm-thick branch. Chop one end into a cross shape with a hunting knife, stuff some hay vines and broken branches into it, and then pour some gasoline to make a simple torch.
In fact, a normal wilderness survival expert is lucky to be able to drizzle some pine resin, and Zeng Cheng has stored a lot of gasoline in the Baicao space, which is prepared to prevent his phaeton car from running out of fuel.
Holding the torch, Zeng Cheng's courage increased greatly and he began his own path of exploration.
Walking in this huge karst cave, sometimes the road will turn to the underground dark river, there are countless small animals jumping into the water, and there are also big fish splashing and making terrifying noises. And the black shadow on the tree finally appeared, hitting him with dried fruits at close range, it turned out to be a kind of gray-haired monkeys, squeaking on the branches in groups, staring at the torch in Zeng Cheng's hand in horror and curiosity, and him as a human.
Zeng Cheng didn't recognize what kind of monkey it was, like a macaque, but the color of the hair was wrong, or it was the reason for living in an underground cave for a long time, which changed the inherent hair color.
At this time, Zeng Cheng's torch was extinguished, and he was about to take out the flashlight again, but suddenly a ray of sunlight magnified in front of his eyes, and in an instant, the darkness in front of him was brightened.
It turned out that the time was already noon, and the sun ran to the middle of the sky, and it just happened to penetrate through the crack on the top of the mountain, there were large and small, densely packed, and actually illuminated the terrifying devil-like underground cave like a fairyland, and on the half-waist platform of the cave with the most dazzling sunlight, there was actually a small wooden house, standing there strangely.
Nature is truly magical, and sunlight is like nature's hand, with magical powers. Just now, it was a dark and terrifying area like a demon world, but at this time, it was actually colorful, and under the sunlight, the cave showed a gorgeous Ambilight.
Blue, green, purple, yellow...... Stalactites in the sunlight, showing their original color, next to the water source, is a natural mirror, their brilliance to ten times a hundred times magnified, exaggerated, as if the entire cave, have become colorful.
The countless beasts in the dark forest let out inexplicable roars, as if they were welcoming the rarely seen sunlight. Overcoming their fears, they ran out of the depths of the forest one by one, standing in the sunshine, screaming excitedly.
Of course, danger is everywhere, and some predators are waiting for an opportunity to come out to feed, and the little beasts standing in the sun are their targets.
For a while, a faint smell of blood also wafted out.
Zeng Cheng decided to take advantage of this opportunity to go to the cabin he had just found halfway up the mountain.
At this time, the light is very bright, and you can see not only the thick layer of branches and leaves on the ground, but also the dry bones and animal feces of many small animals.
Zeng Cheng can also deduce from this that this huge underground cave should have formed its own unique small ecological environment, and I don't know if the balance is unbalanced, but as long as there are enough small beasts, there should be no shortage of large carnivores standing at the top of the food chain.
A clouded leopard with colorful patterns poked its head out from behind the treetops, jumped to the place where Zeng Cheng had just stood, sniffed, and let out a low moan, a bit like a cat meow.
Although the clouded leopard is also stained with the word "leopard", it is different from the leopard, it belongs to small and medium-sized carnivores, only twenty or thirty kilograms, and its body length is only about one meter, which is quite different from the real leopard. Its tail is almost as long as its body, and it hides in trees, making it almost impossible to spot them.
With Zeng Cheng's eyesight and hearing, he didn't find its hiding place just now.
The clouded leopard only stayed on the ground for a moment before jumping up the branches of the tree as it heard a group of monkeys approaching from a distance. A playful little monkey landed on the branch where the clouded leopard was hiding, and before it could react, it was pounced on by the clouded leopard, bit its head, and disappeared into the depths of the woods in a blink of an eye.
The other monkeys screamed loudly and slapped the branches and branches hard, trying to chase the clouded leopard, but it was long gone.
Zeng Cheng didn't know what was happening behind him, because there were still many dangers in front of him, and there were fights all the time on this path, but the depths of the forest were even more dangerous. He didn't know how long the sunlight above him would last, and he had to get to the cabin halfway up the hill before the sunlight faded.
This hillside is very steep, almost close to 70 degrees, but there are traces of artificial excavation on the hillside, not deep, every other step, there is a foot of more than ten centimeters, like a ladder, straight to the top of the mountain.
There are not only countless stalactites in this underground cave, but also more than a dozen small hills, this hillside is closer to the edge of a corner, I wonder if the person who dug this path in the first place, did he want to escape from the gap at the top of this small hill?
This small peak is about fifty or sixty meters long, and the higher you go, the more difficult it is to climb. However, for Zeng Cheng, who has now advanced to the eighth level of Qi training, it is nothing.
Soon, Zeng Cheng came to the hillside, where there was a platform, many traces of water, and a lot of bird droppings. Near the stone wall of the cave, there is a small wooden house, which is made of a combination of planks and rattan, with wooden wedges at the joints, and the small door is closed.
With a slight push, the wooden door made a cracking "creaking" sound, and it turned out to be rotten. From the broken doorway, there was a damp musty smell, and it was pitch black inside, and nothing could be seen.
Shining a flashlight into it, I saw that there were stone slabs, stone pots and stone stoves, no beds, and no clothes.
In the corner of this wooden house, there is actually a stone cave entrance, the entrance of the cave is open and short, as if it was smashed out of something, the entrance is very simple, it is all a gap, there is no trace of neatness.
The wooden planks used to make the wooden house are very thick, and the roof is mostly thatched and rattan grass, which is very tightly shaded, and there are no signs of water leakage to this day.
Looking at the situation inside, Zeng Cheng muttered to himself: "Someone has lived here, and it is really strange to build a wooden house and use it as a kitchen." However, this place is very close to the crevice in the roof of the cave, and it should rain a lot, and if you want to eat a cooked meal, you can't use an ordinary simple pot stove. ”
"All the stone tools used indicate that the humans who have been displaced here have no preparation, and can only rely on handwork to create daily necessities. There were stone knives on the stone slabs, as well as several skeletons, and it seemed that they had left or died without cleaning the food from the slabs. ”
Zeng Cheng carefully observed the door for a while, and found that there was no danger, so he slowly walked into the cabin. Except for the stone slabs that were not cleaned, the rest of the places were cleaned up very neatly, indicating that the owner was still a very clean person.
Walking to the door of the stone cave, Zeng Cheng sniffed carefully and found nothing abnormal before walking in. (To be continued.) )
