Chapter 326: Underground Cave
Several people climbed all the way down along the tendons of the beast, and it was not until they descended for a hundred meters that they reached the bottom of the crack.
The strong fishy smell came to the nostrils, and people couldn't help but want to gag.
Lin Su hurriedly pulled the scarf around his neck upwards and covered his mouth and nose, took out a flint and lit it, and looked around.
At this look, he suddenly took a big jump!
I saw that not far in front of them, there was a big white snake about the size of a water tank!
Lin Su and the others instinctively flashed back.
It wasn't until he waited for a long time and didn't see any movement from the big white snake that Liu Jie glanced at Sun Sheng.
Sun Sheng nodded, and the two of them approached the big white snake cautiously, one left and one right, holding their weapons.
After a while, Liu Jie let out a sigh of relief and said to Lin Su and the three people behind him: "Come here, it's just a snake corpse." ”
Lin Su, Mu Xue and Liu Huimin stepped forward at this time, and took a closer look and found that the big white snake had been dead for a long time, and the skin and flesh on its body had begun to fester, and there were many maggot-like things crawling in and out of the rotting snake corpse.
As the light of the fire lit up, the insects seemed to be frightened, and they all burrowed into the corpse of the great white snake at a very fast speed, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
And the pungent stench emanated from the corpse of the snake.
"It seems that I guessed correctly, this snake should have been injured in the beast tide, and was picked up by the snake lizard and occupied this place." Liu Jie said.
"Didn't you say there were two big white snakes here? What about the other one? Mu Xue asked.
Liu Jie looked around and said, "I don't know, but it's certain that even if I'm still alive, I shouldn't be here." ”
"Let's take a look around, most of the places where the beasts are entrenched have good things, but be careful and don't be too far apart." Liu Jie said.
At the moment, several people scattered around and searched for it.
"There's a Nether Grass here." Sun Sheng shouted.
A few people stepped forward to take a look, only to see a black plant on the mountain wall, this plant has a total of three leaves, and there is a purple vertical stripe in the middle of each leaf.
"It's a pity that it's only three leaves, if it's seven or five leaves, it would be good." Liu Jie said with some regret.
"Don't be too greedy, even if it's three leaves, it's worth thirty or forty military merit points." Sun Sheng said, carefully uprooting the Nethergrass and putting it into a small box specially used to store plants.
Several people searched for most of the day and found a lot of plants and herbs, most of which were poisonous weeds, but even poisonous weeds were valuable, and the sum of seven, seven, eight or eight could almost be exchanged for four or five hundred military merit points.
Don't look at four or five hundred military merit points, it seems to be a lot, but that also depends on the situation.
There are a total of twelve people in Liu Jie's team, and it took more than ten days to come here from the fortress, and it will take at least a month just to travel back and forth.
Add to that the cost of this time, and the cost of the previous battle with the snake lizard, it's all a cost.
Just these four or five hundred military merit points are not enough to protect the capital, let alone share them with the brothers.
"That's it, it's no different from running for nothing." Sun Sheng smiled bitterly.
Liu Jie said: "No, there must be good things here!" If that's all there is, Jin wouldn't be like that. ”
"But the problem is that we've all looked for it now, and we haven't found anything else." Sun Shengdao.
Liu Jie didn't speak, and his heart was full of doubts.
Lin Su on the side suddenly asked, "Where is your Vajra mouse?" ”
Liu Jie was stunned when he heard this, and then hurriedly looked around.
Previously, Xiao Jin had helped them look for these valuable plants, but in the blink of an eye, they didn't know where they went.
"Little Kim! Goldie! Liu Jie shouted a few times, but he didn't see Xiao Jin come back.
He frowned, his heart full of puzzlement.
Xiao King Kong was picked up by him when he was born, and in Xiao Jin's eyes, Liu Jie is his parents and dearest.
On weekdays, no matter how greedy Xiao Jin is, as long as Liu Jie shouts, Xiao Jin will immediately run back to his side.
But there was no reaction at all.
Could it be that Xiaojin is in distress?
It shouldn't be, there's no danger down there.
Just when Liu Jie didn't know why, Liu Huimin, who was not far away, suddenly shouted: "Come and see, there is a cave here!" ”
Hearing this, several people looked at each other and hurriedly ran over.
Liu Huimin was standing in front of a mountain wall, and the long sword in his hand pushed away the plants on the mountain wall, only to see that a half-human-high cave was exposed inside!
Previously, because the vegetation on the mountain wall was too lush, the cave was blocked by plants, so everyone did not find it.
Liu Huimin accidentally saw some gravel scattered on the ground here, and then stumbled upon this cave.
"Go in and have a look?" Sun Sheng looked at Liu Jie and asked.
Liu Jie nodded and said, "Be careful." ”
Sun Sheng didn't talk nonsense anymore, and the cat took the lead in getting in.
Lin Su followed closely behind Sun Sheng, followed by Liu Huimin and Mu Xue, and Liu Jie was in charge of the palace.
It's a passage-like cave, and there's not much space in it, just enough for a single cat to walk on his waist.
The cave was winding and winding, and it was unknown how far it had stretched forward, and the ground and surrounding rock walls were smooth and shiny, apparently caused by the long-term presence and exit of animals.
I think it must be the two big white snakes that originally lived here.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, Sun Sheng in front suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" Lin Su behind him asked.
Sun Sheng lowered his voice and said, "There is light ahead!" ”
"There is light?" Lin Su raised his eyebrows, turned his head sideways, and looked forward.
I saw a blue point of light faintly visible in front of me, and the faint blue light was like starlight, which was particularly conspicuous in this dark cave.
"What's that?" Lin Su asked.
Sun Sheng shook his head and said, "I don't know, but it doesn't look like a living thing." ”
"Could it be an exit?" Lin Su asked again.
Sun Sheng was silent, and after a while, he said, "Just go over and take a look." ”
As he spoke, he continued to walk, but quietly pulled out the short knife at his waist, ready to strike at any moment.
I don't know how long this cave is, and a few people feel that they have walked at least a kilometer or two but have not yet reached the end.
And they also found that the cave stretched diagonally downward!
The bottom of the crack was already a hundred meters above the ground, and at this moment, they had been walking in this cave that was extending diagonally downward for so long, and it was roughly estimated that they were at least hundreds of meters deep underground at this moment!
However, the further you go inside, the wider the cave becomes, from initially only allowing one person to walk on the waist, to now allowing two people to walk side by side upright.
The faint blue point of light in front of him also slowly grew larger as a few people walked in, and finally, Lin Su and Sun Sheng, who were walking in the front, determined that it was not a point of light, but the exit of the cave!
The blue light is coming in from beyond the exit!
"There's an exit ahead, be careful." Sun Shengdao.
After saying that, he took a deep breath and cautiously walked towards the exit with his short knife in his hand.
As soon as he walked to the exit, Sun Sheng stopped again.
This time it was not only him, but Lin Su on the side also stopped, and the two of them stared blankly at the exit, their expressions were shocked, as if they had seen something incredible!
