Chapter 22: Unknown Creatures
"You mean this is some kind of creature lair?" I couldn't be calm, and I took two steps to the bottom of the round hole in the zenith, a place where the skeletons were everywhere and wild beasts would come back at any time to 'eat', and I didn't want to stay for a moment.
I took out a flashlight and lit it with which I had established a deep revolutionary friendship, and the pillar of light shone directly at the opening of the cave at the top of the cave, which was less than a meter in diameter and at a perpendicular angle to the ground. I looked at Sanjiu, hoping that he would find a way to get me up.
"You go first." Sanjiu said and pulled out the belt and shook it casually, the belt instantly became twice as long, and there were three-pronged hooks at the end of the tail.
I saw his arm swing two dashing arcs in mid-air, and the end of the belt was thrown into the vertical hole, firmly hooking the cave wall, he tried the weight-bearing, and felt that it was okay, so he handed me the end of the belt.
I only found out after I took it that this black belt was actually made of metal, and it was made of countless small metal rings interlocking, which could be used as both a rope and a weapon.
If it weren't for the urgency of running for my life right now, I would have praised it, grabbed the belt and climbed up, and when I entered the hole, I kicked the walls of the hole on both sides with my feet, and my hands were also propped on the sides, and I climbed up with my hands and hind legs.
Sanjiu followed, we climbed up and down into the vertical hole, but after climbing a section, we found that there were horizontal caves around the vertical hole, and the entrance of the cave was large and small, the big one could accommodate two people to drill into it at the same time, and the small one was the size of my fist.
I looked at the holes, and then thought of the headless corpses below, and I had a vague premonition that the creatures that lived here were by no means good, and there would not be a small number, otherwise there would be no need to dig up so many exits.
We climbed a few meters to the horizontal hole where two people could get in, and I bowed my head and said, "There's a big hole here, I can get in." ”
Sanjiu was below me, and he looked up, didn't say anything, just nodded. After we entered the horizontal cave, Sanjiu was in front, I was behind, and I wanted to continue walking, but Sanjiu stood still, he handed me something, I looked at the short sword he handed over, and my heart couldn't help but warm.
This sword is the one he used to deal with corpse monsters, the sword body is blue, the cold is pressing, the sword body and the hilt are integrated, it does not look mortal, by virtue of the fact that he only uses it in critical situations, you can know its preciousness, and now he lent me for self-defense, how can I not be moved!
I took the short sword and hurriedly thanked him, but he still didn't have any expression, just said lightly: "Follow me." ”
I nodded busily, and said in my heart: Of course you have to follow, you are the wind and I am the sand, and I will follow you all the way back to my hometown.
Now I don't care about the difference between men and women, whether I give or receive kisses, I hold the short sword in one hand, and grab his magical belt with the other, and now it is back on the waist of the master. He let me stick behind him as if I were behind me, and he didn't stop me.
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, in fact, I was quite worried that he would kick me away without giving face, you must know that he is not a person who pities fragrant jade. Pity me Li Miaoxue has lived for more than 20 years, and the only person of the opposite sex who has been in close contact with me other than my father is a man like a living Hades, and this contact has nothing to do with Fengyue, I have to worry about being beaten!
But this little bit of caution is nothing compared to the fear at the moment, and I am only worried that the owner of the nest will come home and find the food running away, and chase after him with a group of relatives!
Sanjiu walked for a while, suddenly stopped, the flashlight illuminated the front exit was sealed by a layer of white film, I walked forward and took a closer look, and I didn't see the doorway for a while. asked Sanjiu beside him: "What is this?" ”
Sanjiu knocked off the hand I was about to stretch out and said, "Don't touch it, it's a cobweb, it's sticky." ”
As he spoke, he took out the matchbox from his jacket pocket, and I hurriedly contributed two lighters to the mix, and the burning of matches one by one was not enough to waste time, and the most important thing we needed to save at the moment was time.
Sanjiu was slightly stunned when he saw the lighter, so he took it and burned it at the cobweb, and the air was filled with the smell of burning, but this method did work, and it didn't take much effort for us to break through the hole and step on a wide space with both feet.
Out of the hole, I first looked back at the rock wall behind me, and the hole we came out of was the largest of all the holes, and the closest to the ground, compared to the other small holes, it was a bit of a 'main entrance'.
I glanced at the holes of various sizes and turned my head to look around, and I couldn't see any difference between this place and the rest of the place, the same darkness and oppression, the heaps of rocks, and the boundlessness.
The underground world of this entire canyon may have been fractured or interlayered by the movement of the earth's crust tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or millions of years ago. No one knows how long and deep it is, and with the two of us on four legs, when will it end? Thinking of this, I looked at Sanjiu and asked:
"Where's your black plate? Can it still lead the way? ”
"Lost."
"What? Lost? "After a little thought, I understood what was going on, we both fell asleep at the same time, and the black disk that no one controlled naturally fell on the glowing moss.
After thinking about it, I then asked, "Then go back and find it?" Do you still know the way? ”
I'm a road idiot through and through, and my sense of direction has been negative all year round, and if I lead the way, we'll be ready to die here.
Sanjiu just wanted to reply, but he pushed me violently and shouted, "Run, they're coming!" ”
Before my brain could analyze his words, my body was already moving, and before he could finish speaking, I raised my legs and ran. After running more than ten meters, I realized that the 'they' he said should be the unknown creatures that kidnapped us.
Judging from the cobwebs that sealed the entrance to the cave, these creatures were spiders, and if they were really spiders, it would not be strange, they were probably the vampire spiders that Wu Feng and I had encountered.
But once again, it turned out that my understanding of the underground world was still too poor, and when I ran out more than a hundred meters and couldn't help but look back, I saw a terrifying creature that I will never forget in my life!
The thing that crawled out of the 'main entrance' had the lower body of a spider, six hairy legs moving quickly, but the upper body was the appearance of a woman, with long hair, plump hair, and a thin waist, but in the open mouth, it was not the tongue that sticked out, but the pointed mouthparts.
I'm afraid that if I take a bite from it, I can suck a person's blood dry!
What's worse is that there is more than one half-human, half-spider monster of this kind, there are a total of one, four and five in total! The largest one, the spider body has caught up with the Chery QQ, and the person on it is slightly petite; The four little ones next to it were the size of eight or nine-year-olds.
Both of their arms resemble the forelimbs of a praying mantis, with barbs on them and hooked ends, and I have no doubt that Mr. Feng Shui's head was sacrificed under the sharp sickle-like claws.
