The scenery in the cave is strange, there will be undulating slopes, there will be forest-like stalagmites, in a hall the size of two rooms, the ground is a piece of fine sand, the sound of ding dong water rings in the ears, from the top of the cave, dripping water droplets, falling in a small pool, the sound of ding dong is endless, it is like entering a concert hall, the giant stalactites, from the top to the ground, and the stalagmites on the ground, just like the pillars, Jiang Sheng explained: "These are limestones, after tens of millions of years of creation, coexist with wind and rain, and are eroded by water, The substances in the water are dissolved in the water and precipitated out of the water, forming caves, milky stones, and stalagmites, all of which are the magic works of nature. ”

"It's beautiful." Dafeng couldn't stop admiring.

However, there was no trace of the mastiff catcher, and the mastiff stopped screaming, sticking out his tongue and running from place to place, as if he had lost his goal.

In front, the cave has a fork again, the stone lock observed, selected a wide branch hole, walked in, here, it is another cave, the cave wall, inlaid with large and small pebbles, and colorful, different forms, Dafeng excitedly exclaimed, "Look, here is like a person, here is like a goddess scattered flowers." ”

A stone tower, appeared in front, layers of yellow-brown milky stones stacked up from the ground, more than a zhang high, under the light of the torch, brilliant, beautiful, Dafeng stroked the smooth tower base, couldn't put it down, "Stone lock stone lock, if you can move this tower out, how good." ”

"Listen, there's the sound of water."

"Wow-" A slight sound of water, not the sound of dripping water, but like a small river flowing, follow the sound, around the high and low slope stalagmites, a small river, in front of you, the river makes a gentle sound of water, gushing out of a dark hole, in case of a drop, it forms a small waterfall, and flows forward happily.

"There's a river underground?" Dafeng cried out in surprise.

"Of course there is a river," Jiang Sheng said: "The underground dark river, the amount of water is still very large, in fact, this is not strange, the rain from the sky, seeping into the mountain, along the mountain cracks and rocks, it gathers into an underground dark river." These stalactites and stalagmites that appear in the cave are slowly formed precisely because there is water in the mountain, but it will take thousands of years to sculpt into this shape. The lifespan of our people is only a few decades, and for these caves, milky stones, and dark rivers, it is simply a blink of an eye, and it is not worth mentioning at all. ”

"Are there any fish in the water?"

"Yes," Jiang Sheng said affirmatively: "Most of the dark rivers are connected with the rivers and lakes on the ground, and of course the fish and shrimp can come and go freely, but some of the fish in the dark rivers have been in a closed environment for a long time, and they look different from other places." ”

Dafeng has squatted to the side of the river, carefully observing the water, it is also a coincidence, a small fish, just from the small waterfall flying down, Dafeng's eyes are fast, reach out and fish, copy in his hand.

The small fish is only two or three inches long, the whole body is almost transparent, jumping in the palm of Dafeng's hand, the small body presents a strange beauty, especially the white transparent fish body, like crystal glass, you can directly see the fish bones, which is particularly magical.

"It's beautiful," Dafeng exclaimed.

Jiang Sheng said: "This fish has obviously grown in the dark environment for a long time, so it has become transparent, and it does not need to cope with light, so the color in its body slowly fades and becomes like this." Again, I'm almost certain that it's blind, because in such a place the eyes are useless. ”

The little fish jumped around, and Dafeng threw it back into the water again, and asked Jiang Sheng: "In the cave, there won't be any demons and monsters, right?" ”

"Haha, maybe," Jiang Sheng said with a smile: "Of course there are no monsters, but some animals look different from the outside, and they are quite scary." It is said that some people have seen huge pythons and monsters like wild boars in caves, and they don't know whether they are true or not. ”

"If there is, I'll catch one." Stone Lock was eager to try.

"You just brag."

"We have to go back." Jiang Sheng reminded.

If you rely on Dafeng, you are far from seeing enough, but the torches have been lit for more than half of the time, and there is no trace of the mastiff catcher, it is really not worth continuing to take risks. Jiang Sheng said: "Let's make such a fuss, and we light a torch, if he is in the cave, he will definitely be able to hear and see." ”

Shi Suo said: "You want to see it, and when I have time later, I will carry a basket of torches and take you to see it." ”

"Where's the dog?"

At this time, everyone found that the big mastiff did not know when it was gone. Jiang Sheng said: "Let's go, it is very smart and will catch up." ”

Following the signs made by Jiang Sheng along the road, the three of them returned, and Dafeng couldn't help but regret it, and said: "Such a scenery is not visible to people who are not blessed." By the way, if Brother Hu is here, he will definitely find a lot of treasures, I dare say, there are a lot of stones, all of them are jade. ”

The road in the cave twisted and turned, and there were many branches, and the three of them only followed the mark, and entered a narrow passage. This place is less than one person high, and he can only walk forward with a cat's waist, Jiang Sheng said in surprise: "No, we haven't walked through here." ”

Shi Suo and Dafeng were also taken aback, "Yes, this narrow alley, I really haven't walked it, Brother Jiang, did you read the wrong mark?" Go back quickly. ”

The three of them retreated, and at the bend, a small piece of bark was placed there. If you pick it up and look closely, you can't go wrong with it.

"Is it the wind...... Shi Suo said this, he shook his head first, there is no wind in the cave, where will the bark be blown?

Jiang Sheng's face became heavy, and he walked a little further, and at the mouth of a branch cave, underground, a small piece of bark was placed in a good place. Stone Lock scratched his head, "What's going on?" ”

Walking through this branch hole, there is another turn, there should be bark here, but, the three of them looked for a while, but did not find it, Dafeng said suspiciously: "No, no, there must have been here just now, Jiang Sheng, you didn't forget to put the bark, right?" ”

Jiang Sheng nodded, held the torch high, looked around, and outside, there were branch caves extending in all directions, and he whispered, "Someone is following us and moving the road sign." ”

Shi Suo and Dafeng couldn't help but shudder, both of them were bold men, but in this mysterious cave, the road was like a labyrinth, making people feel as if they were in another world, and the enemies that could not be found were like ghosts, making people shudder.

"We can't trust the road signs, we have to go back with our memories." Jiang Sheng said.

Each of the entrances to the cave is irregular, and it seems to be like it just now, and it doesn't seem to be like it, and the paradoxical feeling has been bothering the three people, and they have walked through two branch holes, but the scene is completely different, they enter a place they have never been to before, this is a long hall, and a protruding stone ridge in the middle, like a giant dragon, coiled there. All three of them knew that they had lost their way.

"It must be the mastiff catcher." Shi Suo said angrily.

Jiang Sheng shone the surroundings with a torch, there was a strange scene in front of him, he knew that what he needed most now was calm, not blindly wandering, he said to Shi Suo and Dafeng: "There are several forks here, let's touch them in to see if we can go back to the original place, let's be careful, pay attention to the movement behind us, and prevent someone from plotting." ”

When he walked again, Jiang Sheng no longer used the bark of the tree as a mark, but used the charcoal of the torch to draw on the stone wall, so that even if there were enemies, he could not change it.

After touching the three forks, they all felt that something was wrong, so they retreated again, and when they were walking towards the fourth branch, they suddenly heard a few "Wangwang" cries.

These sounds, the three of them listened, no less than the most beautiful sound, this is the bark of the mastiff, these half a day, the big dog does not know where to run, now, hearing its voice, feel more cordial. However, the big mastiff barked a few times, but it was silent, Jiang Sheng encouraged Shi Suo and Dafeng and said: "Since the dog is nearby, then our original road is not far away, as long as you look carefully, you will definitely be able to find it." ”

After walking for a while, they entered a dead end, and the three of them retreated, and then turned back to explore the way, and the torches burned to the end at this time.

In Jiang Sheng's hand, there was still a thick branch that was used as a crutch, but he didn't want to light it, "If this branch is finished again, then the situation will be even worse, we must save on it, first touch and look for it, and when it is very necessary, then order the branch." ”

"We listen to you." Shi Suo said.

The torch was extinguished, but there was still a small section left, the spark was not extinguished, it became a charcoal rod, in this dark hole, a little spark, it felt very eye-catching, and the three of them took advantage of the charcoal rod to find a little spark, groping for the way.

"This hall looks like I've been here." When he walked into a cave hall that felt very spacious, Shi Suo said, "Jiang Sheng, you light a torch and take a look." ”

Jiang Sheng carefully lit the torch to illuminate the surroundings, but everyone was disappointed, this was indeed a large cave hall, but it was still unfamiliar.

Dafeng took Shi Suo's hand, and spoke with a crying voice, "Shi Suo, I shouldn't have let you go down to this hole, and I shouldn't just be curious and go inside." ”

"Don't worry, we'll be able to get out." Shi Suo patted Dafeng's hand.

"Yes," Jiang Sheng said in an affirmative tone: "As long as you look for it slowly, you will definitely be able to get out, we three stinkers can top Zhuge Liang, if you can't find it in one day, you can find it for two days, as long as you are careful, no matter how complicated this hole is, it won't be able to trap us." ”

"Hmm. I'm either scared, or ...... I just feel that these days with Ah Ning, Teacher He, and Professor Wan...... There are also stone locks and they are together, their hearts are always warm, and they have learned so many things, they feel that a good life has just begun, and they are really reluctant. In this dark and mysterious hole, the straightforward and bold Dafeng is facing a long line of life and death, and his soft intestines are revealed, revealing the mentality of a little girl.

Jiang Sheng encouraged: "If we can't get out all the time, Lao Zhuang will bring someone to rescue us, and besides, I don't believe that we can't get out." ”
