Chapter Twenty-Nine: Moving Forward in the Dark Hole

Keep climbing. Yang Hao stepped on a piece of soil, and as soon as he was forced, the piece of soil was scattered. Yang Hao kicked on his toes, kicked out a dirt pit, and stepped on it.

The cliff is more than 20 meters high, and it took the two of them fifteen minutes to climb it. Both of them were out of breath, and the strength used to climb this cliff was more physical than the distance they had just run.

After taking a sip of water, the two got up and left the place.

This area of trees is relatively sparse and can easily expose the target, so it is unwise to stay here.

The helicopter never came in this direction, and it seems that the two were not exposed.

But that doesn't mean the two are safe. They had to go deeper before they could stop and rest.

Running and running, suddenly Wei Gong in front of him stepped into the air and fell directly from the ground.

His reaction was not slow, and his hands quickly grabbed the ground and hung in the air.

Below, there was a large pit, and it was pitch black below, and nothing could be seen. But it can be guessed that this pit must be very deep, and if you fall like this, if you don't fall to your death, your legs will definitely be broken.

Yang Hao was startled, pounced and grabbed Wei Gong's hand, and pulled him up with all his might.

And Wei Gong was pulled up, but he looked at the pit and was stunned.

Yang Hao, who was familiar with Wei Gong, immediately noticed something and asked, "Did you find something?" ”

Wei Gong lay down and faced the pit: "Listen! ”

Yang Hao also lay down and listened carefully.

After a while, he got up: "The wind? And the sound of water? ”

"Looks like I heard it right." Wei Gong smiled: "This is a viper pit, and there is a dark river below!" This may be a shortcut for us. ”

Wei Gong turned on the flashlight, and Xiangxia shone it.

About ten meters deep, below, there is a ledge, and next to it there is a gap where it is impossible to see what's inside, leading to a deeper depth.

"I mean, go down and take a look, what do you think?" Wei Gong asked Yang Hao.

"You can try. I'm going to look for vines. Yang Hao said and ran to the side.

A few minutes later, Yang Hao came back with a long vine in his hand. At a cursory glance, this vine is more than fifteen meters, which is completely sufficient.

The two of them began to move. Wei Gong grabbed the other end of the vine and tied it to the nearest tree, and collected a lot of dead leaves to put next to it to cover the knotted vine. Yang Hao tried it, and it was very strong, so he threw the other end into the pit and went down the vine.

After a while, Yang Hao's voice appeared in the pit: "It's dark inside, turn on the flashlight." ”

Wei Gong then followed down below.

It was really dark inside, and there was not a bit of light. But standing here, the sound of the water becomes clearer.

On the other side, more than three meters away from this ledge, and one or two meters lower, there is another ledge. The two jumped over the distance and found that the ledge led deeper.

The light behind him faded away. When he turned a corner, the zuihou behind him disappeared at all.

Jumping off a ledge again, after taking a few steps, the sound of the water was already close at hand.

As soon as the light of the flashlight shone on, I also found the river below, which continued to flow into the distance.

The space here is not small, and there is no light, so it is completely possible for the two of them to rest here.

Turning off the flashlight, the two sat down and gasped.

The two of them were getting tired. Although their physical strength is better than that of ordinary soldiers, they are not iron-clad. Walking through the jungle like this almost drained their physical strength.

After resting for twenty minutes, Wei Gong turned on the flashlight and said, "I'll go up the river and see what there's over there." ”

So saying, he walked up the river.

It's windy, which means you can go to the outside world along the river.

After half an hour, a bright light appeared in front of Wei Gong's eyes.

This is a karst cave, and the source of the river is about four or five meters above its head, and it flows in from the outside world, forming such a small river. The surrounding rocks are also very smooth by the river, but there is a rock formation on one side, which is obviously not affected by the impact of the current, and it looks uneven and rough.

Wei Gong followed these uneven stones and climbed out of the cave smoothly.

It was at the foot of a mountain, and a river stretched into the jungle, and the surrounding vegetation was so dense that it almost completely covered the river.

Now all we have to do is find food and fire.

For Wei Gong, finding food in the wild is simply commonplace. He could see at a glance where there were animal burrows, what was poisonous, what could be eaten, and what could heal.

In an hour, Wei Gong's hands were two more hares.

Large animals can't be taken away at all, so two hares are enough for the two of them to eat.

And he also stuffed a lot of edible plants in his backpack, and tied a lot of dry wood to make a fire.

In such a jungle, if you have the knowledge and experience, then what you need is actually close to you.

After finding all the things he needed now, Wei Gong entered the cave along the river and returned to Yang Hao.

It's deep and hidden enough that you don't have to worry about being seen by people when you light a fire, as long as it's quiet and not let passers-by hear it.

The nerves of the two of them can finally relax temporarily.

took off the auspicious clothes on their bodies and lit a fire, and the two immediately felt the warmth brought by the flames.

"How do you feel like we're not here on a mission, but on vacation?" Wei Gong muttered. Yang Hao next to him laughed.

At the moment, the two began to deal with their own lunch.

The hare was skinned, gutted, and skewered on a branch and roasted.

The plants they collected washed the soil in the river and ate them raw. In a few moments, the hare was roasted, and the two began to feast.

After eating the food in his hand, the hunger level that was about to reach the critical point finally stopped declining and slowly rose. Yang Hao looked at his watch: "It's three o'clock at noon, rest until nine o'clock in the evening, let's continue to set off." You rest first, and I'll call you at six o'clock in the afternoon. Eat something offline, we haven't eaten for a day. After speaking, Yang Hao smiled.

"Okay." Wei Gong moved to the side, covered with a gilly suit, and went offline.

Time passed slowly, and finally it came to nine o'clock in the evening.

The two re-equipped, got enough water in the river, each held a torch, and walked down the dark river into the depths.

After a while, the road was gone, and the two had to go into the river and continue on their way.

Fortunately, the river was only below the knees of the two men and did not fall over. But the river was very fast, and both of them could feel the constant impact of the river on their feet, and the speed of their movement was also affected, much slower.

The torches were quickly extinguished, and the two threw away the torches in their hands and turned on the night vision devices.

There was silence all around, the sound of the river coming out, and nothing else.

After walking for a while, the height of the river has reached the thighs of the two of them, and the speed of movement is even slower.

As the two walked along, the scenery above their heads suddenly changed.

Some plants appeared around, and things in front of me became a little brighter. The two looked up at the sky and saw stars.

Taking off the night vision device, the stars in the sky were reflected in the eyes of the two through the crack above.

The two of them walked out of the dark hole.

But here is a slender rift, just over two meters wide and thirty or forty meters high. If you touch the rocks on both sides, they have been hit by the current all year round, and they have become smooth and round, and they are impossible to climb.

You can only keep going. Yang Hao and Wei Gong put on their night vision devices again and walked forward along the river.

I looked at my watch. It's 3:16 a.m.

The two have been walking for more than six hours. Look at hunger again.

217/300, it seems that there is no need to worry about it for the time being.

After traveling for almost an hour, the water level dropped, and there was a platform on one side that was not flooded. The two walked here and began to rest, take a few sips of water, and replace the batteries of the night vision devices. Half an hour later, the two walked forward again.

After walking for more than fifty minutes, another cave appeared in front of him. At this time, the two had no other way to go, but to follow the river to enter.

Not long after entering, there was a sudden sound of flapping wings over my head. The two of them looked up and immediately felt some numbness in their scalps.

The roof of the cave is full of bats.

Occasionally, a few flew down and flew deeper, and some even flew over the heads of the two men.

Wei Gong opened his mouth and said fiercely: "Damn, you should have thought that there was this thing here!" Let's go, don't let them bite. ”

Wild bats are virus-bearing, most of them have rabies virus, although rabies virus is in this game, it can be cured with just a trip to the hospital, but if you are bitten, you may also be infected with other viruses. If you get the virus that onsets quickly, don't want to get out of this jungle.

And when these bats bite a person, they secrete an anticoagulant substance on the wound, which will make you bleed nonstop.

The two of them are fully armed, and only their faces are exposed, that is, as long as they don't get bitten on the face, they both lower their heads slightly and move quickly.

The river rose to thigh height, and water from the surrounding rock walls flowed into the cave, some of which formed a small waterfall.

The sound of bats flying by kept sounding next to them, which made the two of them dare not raise their heads, for fear that one would accidentally be bitten by the bats.

The water was also constantly beating the legs of the two, and it became more ferocious than just now, and the two of them almost failed to stand firm several times and fell into the water.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, a little light finally appeared in front of the two of them. The two of them were overjoyed and quickened their pace.

The light grew brighter and brighter, and the two took off their night vision devices and walked over quickly.

Suddenly, the two of them squinted their eyes and raised their hands to block the sunlight.

The two finally came out.

About fifty meters in front of the river, the river disappeared, but the water in front of it was louder. Ahead, you can hear that there is a waterfall. Climbing out of the river, the two of them burrowed into the woods next to them, sat down, and let out a long sigh of relief.
