Don't talk about it! The old man's hooligan whistle has a special taste, not only rhythmic, but also obvious intonation and frustration.

Yang Huiling, who was on the side, muttered in a low voice: "He won't blow and play for no reason!" ”

As soon as she finished speaking, I heard a sound of "stinging, stinging" behind me, perhaps because human beings have an instinctive judgment of sounds in nature, and the moment I heard this sound, my scalp was numb, and I subconsciously turned around.

OMG!

I saw a white figure thicker than a human thigh behind us, spitting red letters, slowly crawling towards us.

"Snake!" Yang Huiling saw it almost at the same time as me, she screamed and got into my arms, which made me and Wu Jinghan, who screamed at the end, feel very embarrassed.

The three of them hurriedly dodged to the side, but the space in this gap was not large, and after taking two steps back, there was no way back.

"Don't worry, it's called Xiaobai, it won't hurt you, it was raised by me, I can live blind people in the past few years, thanks to Xiaobai!"

We curled up on the edge of the rock, not because we didn't believe the old man's words, but because the snake was too big, and it was getting closer and closer to us, and we couldn't help but be afraid.

The white snake stopped in front of us, stuck its tongue out at us, as if to sniff us, and then crawled straight up to the old man, and then into his arms.

"There are two more, named Xiaoqing and Xiaohei, they went out to hunt!"

It sounded as if it wasn't two snakes, but two of his own children.

Seeing the white snake lying in the old man's arms very obediently, letting him stroke the scales, we gradually relaxed, but we still didn't dare to get too close.

"Snakes can still hunt?"

Yang Huiling asked tremblingly.

"Why not! Sometimes snakes are better at hunting than humans, and they are more obedient. ”

Yang Huiling nodded: "Then you...... How did you tame them? ”

As soon as she finished speaking, the old man burst out laughing, sighed deeply, and replied, "This can be regarded as the way of survival left by the ancestors!" I am proud of this life, and I am ruined here......"

I could hear the old man's words a little sad, and pondered carefully, these words were meaningful, he should have had a special experience, so he was so emotional.

As I spoke, there was a sound of "stinging, stinging" behind me again, and I hurriedly turned my head and saw a black snake thicker than a white snake slowly crawling over, with a large white and translucent fish in its mouth.

We hid again on the side of the hill, and the black snake climbed straight to the big tank behind the old man and put the fish in.

I was dumbfounded by this scene, this is still a cold-blooded animal!

Two snakes, one large and the other larger, curled up in the old man's arms, like pets of puppies and kittens.

After a short time, the hair-making sound came from the slit again, and when I turned my head, I saw a green snake with a translucent fish in its mouth, which was also placed in the broken porcelain jar.

The old man said that the three snakes are all complete, which proves that what he said is true, it seems that he has been able to survive all these years because of the ability to domesticate snakes.

The old man put his hands on his lips again, and blew a rhythmic whistle of "woo woo", and several snakes, as if receiving an order, spit out red letters, and crawled towards the innermost part of the slit.

As I have noticed, the slit is two sections narrow, the middle wide, and the three snakes crawl straight into the narrow gap at the end until they disappear.

At this time, Yang Huiling took a deep breath, slowly spit it out, took off his jacket, and wore only pink underwear.

"Old ...... Old man, how can you tame three snakes of such a size? ”

Yang Huiling's tone was full of surprise.

The old man replied casually: "Didn't I say it just now, this is a skill passed down from my ancestors, and I can do it when I am five years old." ”

I thought in my heart: Probably the old man's family is a snake catcher or snake raiser, and he specializes in art!

Wu Jinghan, who had been silent, might also be curious, and asked in a slightly hoarse voice, "You...... Your eyes are ...... How do you know the color of these three snakes? ”

That's right! Before, he himself said that he had been blind for more than 20 years, and when he raised snakes, he was already blind, and it stands to reason that he should not know the color of snakes.

The old man laughed a few more dryly: "Who told you that if you want to know the color of the snake, you must use your eyes?" ”

This made us confused.

Yang Huiling asked casually: "Isn't the color seen by the eyes?" ”

The old man did not continue to explain, but touched it and picked up the bronze pot.

"Snakes are also inferior to people, so take me to fetch some water." The tone was stiff, more like a command.

Wu Jinghan hurriedly walked over and took the copper kettle in his hand: "I'll help you!" After speaking, it was not too dirty, and the other gently grabbed the old man's arm.

Actually, I also wanted to help, but seeing the old man's dirty appearance, his body still exuded a rancid smell, especially the two black hole holes, which made me feel furious in my heart, so I hesitated for a moment.

But seeing Wu Jinghan's actions, I felt ashamed.

It is estimated that Yang Huiling and I have the same idea, the two of them looked at each other awkwardly, she stuck out her tongue at me, and hurriedly stepped forward to help.

There were more than a dozen unknown trees in the open space in front of the slit, and I didn't look closely at the specific appearance of these trees in my panic just now, and then I noticed that these trees were even stranger than they looked just now.

Maybe it's because of the angle, I used to see these trees very tall and growing randomly, only to find out that they are two close together, and in a trance they look like loving couples, I don't know if they grow like this naturally, or if someone deliberately cultivates them.

The slit is only a few hundred meters away from the small river, and the river leads directly to the volcano of more than 100 meters, forming a lake the size of a football field in front of the mountain, and the water actually flows out of the crack of the volcano, and then merges into a lake, and then flows away slowly.

It seems that this place is really an evil sect, contrary to the words of the ancestors - water and fire are incompatible.

I was even more shocked by the other scene I saw, I saw several vine-like things pulling around the crown of the largest tree, and now I could see clearly what vines were, and it was clearly a dozen bronze chains thicker than my wrists.

The bronze chains, covered with black-green patina, lead to the canopy of a tree at one end and into the lake at the other.

"Old man, who made such a thick chain? What is this to do with such a thick chain! "I was a little incoherent because of the shock.

"Left by my ancestors to keep a secret, didn't you ask me why I came here?" The old man paused for a moment, then replied to himself, "I am here for this secret." ”

In fact, since I came to this huge underground canyon, I have a lot of doubts in my mind, especially after meeting the old man, the doubts can be said to have reached the peak.

The ...... left by their ancestors Teacher Wu, didn't they say that all these are the masterpieces of the ancient Dongyi people! The Dongyi tribe had mysteriously disappeared before Qin unified the Six Kingdoms, and it stands to reason that there should be no descendants......

At that moment, there was another crackling gunshot from the direction we were coming from, which immediately brought my mind back to reality.

A palpitation in my heart, not good! Since I saw the old man, there was still half an hour, even if they ran slowly, they should have come at this time, but listening to the gunshots, it seems that it is still quite far from here, and there will be no accidents, right?

Suddenly I was a little worried.

No way! I had to go back to help, but when I thought of the giant centipedes, I was terrified, what could I do to help......

"That's right! Old man, I have a dozen friends who are being chased by the giant centipedes here...... What the hell are those bugs? ”

The old man paused for a moment, then turned to face me: "You should not be talking about centipedes, but fire worms that live in the crevices of the underground rocks, to be precise, they are not chasing your friends, but climbing to this mountain." As he spoke, he pointed to the summit of the volcano that erupted from time to time with Mars.

"You say they...... They don't attack people? ”

The old man shook his head: "You can't say that, they rarely take the initiative to attack, but when they are frightened, it is difficult to say." ”

I thought to myself, this is over! It might have been fine, but after being shot by them with guns like this, nothing has become something wrong.

"I have to save them!"

"Let's go together!" Yang Huiling gritted her teeth and picked up a dead branch more than one meter long.

I waved my hand: "This thing is not suitable for women to do, it will be a burden to go, you can stay here and take care of the old man!" ”

Women are afraid of insects, I know that Yang Huiling and Wu Jinghan are no exception, hearing me say this, the two of them are not reluctant, nodding and telling me to be careful.

I said let them stay and take care of the old man, in fact, I know in my heart that the old guy can be alone, or in a blind state, living here for more than 20 years, there must be other outstanding skills, just now I saw that he said that it was some fire worms that would not take the initiative to attack people, his expression was calm, I was more sure that he was not afraid of those worms, not only did not need to protect, but could protect the two beauties.

I found a stick in my hand, stuffed my gun again, and after a few words of advice, ran away in the direction from which I came.

After running for three or four minutes, I faintly saw Yang Jianqiang and their figures, and a few gunshots rang out from time to time.

"They don't attack people, don't shoot people!"

Seeing this, I ran and shouted at them over and over again.

At this moment, I heard a few bird calls overhead, my heart sank, and I hurriedly raised my head, and saw a piece of birds hovering in the air.

However, when I looked closely, I found that the big bird above my head was not the big bird that looked like an eagle and not an eagle just now, but a Rollo bird that had been shot to death before.

This kind of bird is about the same size as the big goose raised at home, although it can speak human words evilly, it is also a "lightweight" bird of prey, and it is not afraid of a single one, but it can't stand the large number, in case a group beats us, it is really difficult to parry.

"Why are you back again?" Seeing me, Yang Jianqiang glared and roared.

"I ...... I'm here to help! ”

"What about the two girls?" Teacher Wu asked me with a pale face and panting.

"In front, they're all fine - these insects are called fire worms, and they generally don't take the initiative to attack people, so don't let go of your guns!" I don't bother to explain too much at this point.

"What? Don't attack people, how do you know? ”

Yang Jianqiang was about to raise his gun to shoot, but when he heard me say this, he lowered his arm again.

"I can't say a word or two! Anyway, listen to me first, and I'll explain it later. ”

Yang Jianqiang hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "That's okay!" What do you think you need to do? ”

At this time, I noticed that there seemed to be two missing people in the team, one was a tall special policeman, the other was Xue Chuanqiang, and the other two special police officers and Liu Liwei Han Jianjian, who was holding a small sprayer in his hand at this time, and retreated while spraying the liquid that emitted the smell of disinfectant behind him.

"You ...... Don't spray yet! ”

I hurriedly shouted at them.

Liu Liwei turned around and glanced at me: "Why?" If it weren't for these pesticides prepared by Professor Gu, we might all ......"

Without waiting for me to reply, Yang Jianqiang scolded loudly: "Now everyone stops what they are doing, and everyone listens to Xiao Liu!" ”

The voice was high-pitched and loud, and it echoed through the cracks.

Seeing that the tide of red fire worms was less than fifty meters away, I tightened my chrysanthemum and pointed to the rocks on one side and shouted, "Get out of the way for them!" All...... All climbed to the rocks! ”

At this time, the crack was no more than 30 meters wide, and on our left side was a cliff that went straight up and down, and on the right side there were dozens of stones more than a meter high.

Han Jianjian let out an "ah" and shouted at me with his mouth wide open: "Brother Dong, you ...... You're not mistaken! Stay here, surrounded by bugs, it's too late to cry! ”

"! If you want to live, listen to me! ”

Seeing that the red fire worm was approaching for more than ten meters, the fire in my stomach surged up, pointing at the stone and scolding at Han Jian.

"Listen to Xiao Liu!"

Yang Jianqiang said that, helped Meng Lao and went straight to the big stone, and several other people also hurriedly followed.

Two people and one stone, the last Han Jianli and Teacher Wu almost just left the ground with their feet, and a piece of fire worms rushed over, this timid face can directly scare out a heart attack, and in an instant, the whole surroundings were dark red, and there was a sound of "Xi Xi Suosuo" in the air, which made people feel a burst of hair in their hearts.

Thankfully, all the bugs crawled around the rocks, and none of them stopped.

We didn't dare to breathe, accompanied by bursts of bird calls, and from time to time a few Roworo birds swooped down and snaked the fire-eating worms. I also instantly understood why there were so many Rollo birds overhead, not to mention, for centipedes, worms, spiders and other insects, most humans are afraid, but they are delicious food for birds.

This is their best chance to hunt!

It took more than three minutes for all the swarms to crawl over.

Liu Liwei and Teacher Wu jumped off the stone and lay directly on their backs on the ground, panting for breath in their mouths, and Ma Huadong sat on the ground like a child and cried.

It was Xue Chuanqiang who was crying, and he didn't need to ask at this time, he already knew what was going on.

"Xiao Liu, how do you know that these insects won't attack people?" At this time, Yang Jianqiang asked me again.

I briefly recounted my encounter with the mysterious blind old man, and everyone looked incredulous.

"You said the front was inhabited, and...... And have lived here for more than twenty years? ”
