Chapter 55: Bubbles in the Tunnel
In the crack, there is a tunnel filled with darkness, the horizontal width is four or five meters, it seems to be wider than the entrance to the crack located on the ground, the whole is in a dangerous inclined posture, the surface is covered with dark yellow mud mixed with moss, look at the slippery. Greasy and sticky. The thick appearance should not provide the friction to ensure the safety of the downhill.
The long tunnel leads straight to the ground, at least Chen Xian can't see the end at a glance, and can only faintly hear the sound of gurgling water from the bottom of the tunnel.......
Of course, what attracted Chen Xian's attention the most was not the tunnel itself, but the bubble-like substances scattered everywhere in this strange tunnel, their state is very similar to the bubbles blown out by a child's mouth, the surface has strong reflective properties, and the shape of each bubble is very irregular, and it seems to be constantly changing with the direction of the wind in the tunnel.
I don't know if the inside of the tunnel is too dim or if it's like this, the transparency of these bubbles is very low, which always gives Chen Xian a feeling of being marked with Gaussian blur, and their surface is not very smooth, with many uneven craters, like the craters that were hit by meteorites on the moon.
Those potholes have an inexplicable attraction, as if they are the protagonists of this underground tunnel, even though Chen Xian wants to observe them is not the target, but in the end...... Chen Xian found that his attention would still shift uncontrollably to those potholes.
Dense and like a beehive, when the bubbles are deformed by the wind, they will also constantly pull horizontally, taking on an unsettling appearance...... It's like a pair of human eyes.
That's right, eyes.
There are eyelids, eyelashes, eyeballs...... You can even see the difference between the iris and the whites of the eyes!
"What are you looking at?" Li Daosheng looked at the empty tunnel below, his face full of doubts.
Although the tunnel in front of him was disturbing, and there was some ominous smell everywhere, it was really nothing, at least he couldn't observe any abnormalities with his naked eye, but looking at Chen Xian's surprised expression...... It's like you've seen something.
And he also mentioned a word earlier.
Eye.
Where do these eyes come from?
At this time, Lu Yisheng and others also came around, as if they were watching a play, and everyone gathered around the entrance of the crack in the ground with great interest, learning Chen Xian's posture and constantly looking inside.
Of course, they didn't see anything like Li Daosheng, and the "bubbles" that Chen Xian saw in their eyes were as non-existent as the air, let alone observing those strange substances with the naked eye, even with the extremely high insight of the aliens, they couldn't perceive their existence.
"You can't see the bubbles?" Chen Xian asked without raising his head.
Chen Xian stared at those strange bubbles, although his face didn't reveal much information, he was indeed ready for all the battles, and the nerves of the whole person couldn't help but tense.
What kind of energy matter are they made of? Why can't I feel them there?
In addition to doubts, Chen Xian was also doubting himself.
Are these bubbles real or are they hallucinating?
Why is it that only you can see and others can't?
"What bubbles?" Xu Yanan looked puzzled, in order to make sure that her observation results were not wrong, she stretched out her head and looked down for a while, "There's nothing down here, are you wrong?" ”
"Boss, me too, I didn't see anything." Lu Yisheng said.
Mu He also nodded, but she obviously couldn't see anything, but she seemed more excited than anyone else, looking at her like that, she didn't seem to know the seriousness of the matter at all, and she was completely holding the mentality of playing.
"What about you?" Chen Xian looked at Mr. Skeleton, hoping that this strange anomalous creature could give him a definite answer.
"Invisible." Mr. Skeleton said, seeing a hint of disappointment on Chen Xian's face, he added, "But I can feel a lot of strange energy...... It's like some kind of floating creature. ”
"Can you feel it?" Chen Xian tried to understand what Mr. Skeleton meant, but eventually shook his head, because unlike Mr. Skeleton, he could only see and not perceive, if he closed his eyes...... The strange bubble-like substance is not perceptible at all.
Mr. Skeleton nodded, the whole person was very interested in those substances that were invisible to the naked eye, and it seemed that he was also curious about what those things were made of, muttering some words that Chen Xian couldn't hear clearly, and his eyes flashed with excitement from beginning to end.
After observing the entrance for a while, Chen Xian didn't gain more, because those bubbles floating in the air did not mean to climb upward, but were just moving left and right or sinking, and if you wanted to observe them up close, you could only go down in person.
"I'll go down and see, and you'll answer me up there."
Chen Xian said in a low voice, and then repeatedly confirmed that the black light parasite had covered his whole body, and the mask was also well worn and would not fall off casually, so he took a deep breath and slowly "slidied" in from the edge of the entrance to the ground crack.
Due to the extremely poor friction of the stone wall on Chen Xian's back, he could only choose to let the black light parasite help, and under his subtle level of control, the metal particles quickly gathered into two monster-like claws, which instantly drilled out of his shoulders and used his cone-like nails to buckle the stone wall.
Under the rotation of those two claws, Chen Xian continued to descend into the depths of the tunnel at a steady speed, approaching the bubbles he saw unhurriedly.
"The boss is playing with the parasite more and more......" Lu Yisheng said lying on the ground crack, looking at Chen Xian with envy on his face, "This thing is too practical......."
"Why don't you ask the headquarters to give you a set too?" Xu Yanan asked.
"What do you think, it's definitely no fun!" Lu Yisheng could see it clearly, and said very self-awarely, "Even if I make progress now, I can only be regarded as a top-notch senior member, which is not the same thing as a special cadre like the boss, not to mention that his qualifications are much deeper than mine.......
"He's handled a lot of cases?" Xu Yanan is very interested in listening to Chen Xian's gossip, after all, Chen Xian is not a person who likes to talk about himself with others, so many times he will give people an inexplicable sense of mystery..... It's easy to be tempted to gossip about his privacy!
"It's a lot, don't you know that Ningchuan model workers are idle!" Lu Yisheng said with a hippie smile.
"That parasite was given to him by the Secret Bureau?"
Li Daosheng opened his mouth without warning, and seemed to be very interested in the layer of black metal covering Chen Xian's body, but unfortunately no one paid attention to him, even if he heard him speak, he still didn't even look at him, this feeling of isolation made Li Daosheng inexplicably embarrassed.
At the same time, Chen Xian had already descended to a position about thirty meters above the surface, and the closest bubble-like material to him was only two or three meters away.
At this distance, Chen Xian can observe more details, such as the eyes that appear on the surface of the bubbles...... It really seems to be the eyes!
The eyelids will blink and the eyeballs will follow the gaze......
From the beginning of Chen Xian's descent, those eyes were staring at him from beginning to end, and Chen Xian naturally discovered this.
Aren't these bubbles just energy?
Is it some kind of creature that exists in a special life form?
"It shouldn't be dangerous...... Chen Xian was vigilant in his heart, and he wanted to reach out directly to touch it, but in the end, he resisted his curiosity, and used the separated metal particles to gather into an arm again, like a robot's detection hand, and cautiously stretched out towards those bubbles.
However, when Chen Xian made this move, those bubbles also changed, and the trajectory was completely different from the previous movement, no longer moving with the direction of the wind in the tunnel, but began to climb upward, and the speed became faster and faster......
In just an instant, the first bubbles to rise collided with Chen Xian's outstretched metal arm, and before Chen Xian could feel the violent shock from the metal arm, the seemingly indestructible metal surface sank into several "wounds", and the deepest one almost caused penetrating injuries to the metal arm!
Looking at the bubbles that were overwhelmingly pouring towards him, Chen Xian's pupils shrank, and he only felt cold all over his body.
Trouble!
