Chapter Twenty-Three: Inside the Dire Cave
Elder Qin on the high platform witnessed everything happening, but he smiled and didn't say anything the whole time, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
On the other side, inside the Dire Cave.
Just as Jin Pengyu suspected, Bai Qi took advantage of the commotion just now and quickly slipped into the cave.
However, the situation in the cave was beyond Bai Qi's expectations.
Inside the cave, Bai Qi stretched out his hand to support the rock wall, and moved forward along the rock wall a little bit, as if he was blind.
It's something that can't be helped.
Before entering the cave, although he had already guessed that the light in the cave would be very dim, he did not expect that there was no light in the Dire cave at all.
Originally, after entering the cave, Bai Qi was going to think of a way to light a fire to light up the surroundings, look at the environment, and find a place to hide.
As a result, I saw that in front of me, there was a person who had come in one step earlier than him and lit a fire, but before he could see the situation in the cave, the fire was extinguished instantly, followed by a terrible scream, and then the stone sank into the sea, and there was no movement.
What the hell is this place?
Bai Qi was so frightened that he wanted to retreat at that time, but there was also a crisis in the back, so he had no choice but to move forward.
What was that just now?
The moment the firelight illuminated before, Bai Qi saw a huge shadow faintly shining on the rock wall over there.
Recalling the name of this cave, Bai Qi couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
Dire Caves?
Dire?
What is that?
For this unknown species, I can't help but feel a little nervous in my heart, especially the glimpse just now, imprinted in my mind and lingering.
The touch between the fingers is rough and wet, and the surface of the rock wall is flat and cool.
In the midst of this unknown darkness, there was always a lingering uneasiness in my heart, because I didn't know what was in the darkness, and I didn't know how long this passage would be or how long it would take to get out.
Many people can't stand this kind of torment, and can't help but whisper to others, talk quietly with other people, and soothe the depression in their hearts.
But from time to time there were terrible screams in the passage, coming from all over the place, frightening and frightening.
Slowly, Bai Qi found that the deeper he walked into the passage, the quieter the surroundings became, and in the end, no one made a sound.
Because everyone is afraid that they will disturb the dangerous existence in the darkness.
Bai Qi walked all the way, very low-key, and after becoming familiar with the darkness again, he accelerated his pace little by little.
Originally, I wanted to find a random place to hide in the cave, but it turned out that this passage went straight to the point, without any cover, and there was no way to hide.
In desperation, I can only move forward, instead of grinding in place, it is better to go faster and try to pass.
"Huh?"
As he walked, Bai Qi stopped abruptly.
Something isn't quite right.
Looking ahead, I vaguely felt that something existed in front of me, and I didn't dare to continue walking.
Is it a Dire?
Bai Qi froze in place, in a dilemma.
"Oops!"
At this moment, someone from behind collided directly, and they couldn't see each other clearly, and the man said dissatisfiedly: "What are you doing, can you go?" Don't stand in the way. ”
“…… I'm sorry, my stuff has dropped, you can go first. Bai Qi said, letting go of the hand that was touching the wall, taking a step back, and letting the person behind go first.
"What's there to find, this place is so dark, you can still find it if you drop it? Really...... Hey? ”
The man passed in front of Bai Qi and continued to take a few steps forward, muttering as he walked, and suddenly, the man was shocked.
"Who?"
"What's, what is this?"
The man seemed to have touched something in front of him, and Bai Qi became nervous when he heard the man's tone.
"What's wrong?" Bai Qi took a few steps back, leaned his back against the wall and asked.
"Here's ...... Yes! Tail! What the hell! Help me! As he spoke, the man suddenly began to scream and cry out for help.
Bai Qi's neck shrank, feeling that the man was about to turn around and run back.
But after waiting for a while, I found that it was wrong, the man was obviously not far away from him, and he could run back in a few steps, but after waiting for a long time, there was no movement, and the front was as quiet as death.
Swallowed in one bite? No way?
Bai Qi was shocked.
I didn't dare to ask out loud, but I could guess that there was a chance that the person had encountered that Dire Beast, but Bai Qi didn't know what the situation was now.
It should have been captured, and it is impossible to get a bunch of cannibalistic guys here, right?
No, it still feels very dangerous, I'll retreat for a while, wait for someone to come later, and then let them go over and explore the way and see the situation.
Bai Qi had a plan in his heart, took a step forward, put his hand back on the rock wall, and prepared to support the rock wall to retreat, waiting for someone to come behind.
"Huh? This is? ”
But the moment his fingers touched the rock wall, Bai Qi noticed something, and a thought popped up in his heart, and his two palms couldn't help but grope up and down the rock wall.
Really!
I seem to have discovered something.
Bai Qi was overjoyed in his heart, and a smile appeared on his face.
Try?
After thinking about it for a while, I still wanted to give it a try, and after taking a few deep breaths, I touched the rock wall and continued to move on.
One step, two steps, three steps......
Twenty steps later, nothing had happened, the wind was calm, and now this distance had long passed the place where the man had disappeared.
Along the way, there was nothing.
Really!
Bai Qi waved his fist excitedly, and then quickly calmed down, still having doubts in his heart.
What does a Dire look like? Does it hurt?
And by what means does it arrest people? All of a sudden, it's silent?
Moreover, why only one person was arrested?
……
A series of doubts in my heart could not be solved, so I had to put these doubts in my heart first and continue to set off forward.
Along the way, Bai Qi kept an eye on the changes in the rock wall, walked and walked, and stopped again.
There was a feeling of warmth in the palm of my hand, and I touched the rock wall up and down, and found that it was warm and dry.
The change is subtle, but it's also noticeable, because the rock walls are cold and wet all the way, and suddenly it's different here.
Bai Qi felt that something was wrong before, and he didn't continue to move forward, so he escaped the catastrophe, because of this subtle change, but he didn't find it in time before, and he reacted afterwards.
If I hadn't guessed wrong, there should have been a Dire Beast a few steps in front of me at this time.
Take a long breath and try to relax yourself and not be nervous.
Now what?
As before, wait for someone to come?
No way.
As soon as this idea came to mind, it was rejected.
There is still a large wave of people coming behind, and nine times out of ten they are coming to trouble themselves, what if Jin Pengyu and his party catch up at that time?
There must be some way to get through.
Bai Qi is very sure of this, because he is not the first now, and he can be sure that there are still people who are ahead.
Since those people can walk through, it means that there must be a way to pass here.
After thinking about it, Bai Qi decided that until the end, he would definitely not have direct contact with that Dire Beast.
Try a switch first?
Put down your left hand and pan your footsteps, like a crab, from the left side of the passage to the right side of the passage.
Stretch out your right hand and touch the wall.
The palms of his hands were cold and moist.
Well? No way? It's that simple?
Bai Qihu suspiciously touched the rock wall up and down, and found that the rock wall here was indeed cold and wet.
The rock wall on the left is warm and dry, while this side is in a normal state and there should be no danger ahead.
Bai Qi speculated.
