Chapter 20: Ghost Valley Cave

For the first time, the barren people tasted the delicacy of cooked food, and they admired the fat man even more. After eating and drinking, the "Queen of the Bird's Head" pointed to the still burning flames and asked, "What is this, gods? ”

Based on her gestures, the fat man guessed her intentions and said loudly, "Fire." ”

The desolate people began to shout in unison, "Fire, fire, fire."

The fat man saw that a flame was about to be extinguished, and he gestured to the "Bird's Head Queen" and said, "When the fire is about to be extinguished, add firewood." So saying, he took the dry wood and threw it into the fire, and the flames began to jump up and down.

The "Queen of Bird's Heads" understood what the fat man meant, and instructed the leader: "Send someone to guard the fire day and night, and don't let it disappear." After the leader received the order, he arranged for several people to take turns on duty to guard the flames.

As night fell, the crickets of crickets could be heard in the woods. Wang Mei looked up at the vast stars and said, "What a peaceful environment, it is really different from the situation when I first arrived on this barren island. ”

"You two have to thank me for such kindness. The fat man said with a smile.

"That's it, fat man, you brother and I didn't have a relationship in vain. ”

"It's a pity that Lao An and they ......," Wang Mei couldn't help but burst into tears.

"These barren people, now they can't see any barbarism, it's really like two people. ”

"It's not because of me that it opened the door to good food for them. ”

......

When night fell, the desolate people were asleep.

"Fatty, fat, wake up. The fat man felt that someone was calling him in a trance, and when he opened his eyes, it turned out to be Tang Haosan and Wang Mei.

"Are you really asleep, did you forget that we were going to escape late at night?" Tang Hao said.

"Fatty, you're not going to be happy, are you?"

"You two don't talk nonsense, I just squinted my eyes. ”

The three of them came out of the lair, and as they crept a step, they saw that a barren girl who had been serving the fat man had seen them. The barren girl stared at them nervously, and Tang Haosan quietly took out a knife. The fat man said, "Brother, I'll take care of it." ”

The fat man walked up to the girl gently, then took out a lighter and gave it to the desolate girl. When the girl saw that it was the fat man's tool for lighting the firewood, she was overjoyed, as if she had obtained a treasure. The barren girl looked at the fat man affectionately and gently hugged the fat man. The fat man suddenly twisted and pinched, at a loss, and was embarrassed. The barren girl saw the unnaturalness of the fat man and said, "For my reckless act, I hope that the gods will atone for my sins." "Quickly bow your head and admit your mistake.

"Gone, fatty, I'm still in Qingqing. Tang Haosan couldn't help but remind.

The three of them left the desolate girl behind and disappeared into the night, heading towards the cave.

"Fatty, look at the girl's eyes just now, I guess you should really take her away. Tang Haosan teased the fat man in the dark.

"That affectionate hug, as a woman, I know best. Fatty, the next time you see her, don't bear her again. Wang Mei also made up for it.

"Can you two stop making fun of me, we're running for our lives now. ”

"It's not about running for your life now, with you fat man, they don't want our lives, at least not your fat people's lives. If they really catch up, you will stay and live for a thousand years, and Wang Mei and I will go first, and it will be good to stay in this world. ”

"Shhhhh......h Tang Haosan and the fat man also heard it, "Brother, this should be the sound of a snake." ”

"It should be, run. ”

A scaly snake coiled around the trunk of a tree on the side of the road, watching the three of them gradually drift away, slowly coiled and climbed to the top of the tree, looking for new prey.

"Wang Mei, do you think we're going in the right direction?" asked the fat man panting after running for a while.

"There's nothing wrong with that, let's go. You see my bracelet is always on. As she spoke, Wang Mei stretched out her hand and showed her bracelet, and a faint light appeared in front of Tang Haosan and the fat man.

"What does that mean?"

"When we came here before, I had already secretly made a mark and scattered some photochemical powders made of special substances, which can quickly blend into the surrounding environment, and can be sensed at close range with the bracelet I am wearing. ”

"It's amazing, fatty, your black box doesn't have it, it's a pity. ”

"I've never seen anything like this before. Wang Mei, why didn't we find out, when did you scatter these powders?"

"Wouldn't it be amazing for you to see? ”

"That's right. The fat man nodded silently.

The three of them walked for a while and came to the mouth of the cave. Tang Haosan was in front, Wang Mei was in the middle, the fat man was in the end, and the three of them walked slowly at the entrance of the cave.

"Fatty, take out your flashlight. ”

"Oh, forgot again, here you go. The fat man took out a flashlight and handed it to Tang Haosan.

"Everyone, be careful, it's a slippery downhill road right away. Tang Haosan led everyone along the edge of the cave and cautiously came to the fork.

"Brother, what if there is really a python in this cave?"

"Ask for a lot of blessings. ”

"I really regret bringing Liu Chen and Tang Murphy to this place. ”

"Now it's useless to blame yourself, everyone get your weapons ready. ”

"You're up front, do you want to use this pistol that the fat man gave me?"

"I'm more used to my pocket knife. ”

Tang Haosan was holding a flashlight, and suddenly shone on a skeleton in front of him, Wang Mei screamed, "Could it be ......?"

Tang Haosan stepped forward to check, "Don't worry, it's not what you think, this corpse should be a long time old, and there are obvious fangs in the teeth, not them." ”

"It seems that the barren people know that there is danger here, so they have been chasing us before, and they have not chased Liu Chen and them. ”

"Fatty, you pay attention to the back, let's move on. ”

......

"What's it?!" the fat man felt a dark shadow suddenly pass over his head, and let out a "quack" sound. Tang Haosan and Wang Mei heard the shout and quickly turned around. Tang Haosan used the light to look for clues, and the light stopped in the corner.

An animal is dancing its teeth and claws, making a "quack" sound. The head of the animal looked like that of a bat, but it was much larger than a bat, and its body resembled that of a hairless kangaroo, but with a pair of wings. In the light of the light, it opened its mouth and screamed with its terrifying sharp teeth.

"Boom, boom, boom" A few gunshots rang out, and before Tang Haosan and the fat man could react, Wang Mei had already fired several shots in a row, accurately hitting its head, and the blood was splashed everywhere, which was miserable.

"Wang Mei, what is this?" the fat man asked.

"I don't know the specifics, but the physical signs should be the legendary Chupacabra, you can call it a vampire. ”

"Good marksmanship, saved me a knife. ”

"Brother Hao, take a look at the top of the cave again. Wang Mei said.

"Words!" said the fat man in amazement.

"Wang Mei, how did you find out that there was something on it?"

"Just now when you were looking for a dark shadow with the lights on, I noticed something strange on it. Wang Mei continued, "Guigu Cave." ”

"What?Guigu Cave?, how do you see that?" the fat man and Tang Haosan asked puzzled.

"You imagine these shapes, you project them onto the ground, you look at them from above. ”

Sure enough, it was a deformation of these three words. But who is so bored to carve these things backwards?" muttered the fat man.

"It seems that this is not just a cave, maybe there is a more mysterious world inside. ”

"Yes, let's keep going inside, maybe we can catch up with Liu Chen and Murphy. ”
