Chapter 120: Deep
When she and Wang Yuxin went to Noah's house for the first time, when Noah's mother's ghost appeared, the flickering of electric lights and televisions, and the agitation of electromagnetic fields were obvious.
As a result, Anne used her flashlight as a simple detector, and the beam of the flashlight was steady as she first walked into the cave. In this situation, Iannie could comfort herself: the evil spirit was still an evil spirit, and it was still some distance away from her for the time being.
On the other hand, one thing she hadn't noticed before, but that she began to notice gradually after entering the cave was that she didn't feel a little cold. Theoretically, when she had not entered the rock crevice before, she felt the cold of the sea breeze while sitting on the beach, so after entering the cave, it should have been even more clammy and cold.
On the contrary, she actually felt a little warm on her body, this feeling came from her own entity that she could faintly feel in the distance, and it was probably someone taking care of her. Although it was not known for a while whether it was Inferno or Catherine, it also gave Iannie a little comfort in the company of her lonely journey in the cave.
Thinking so, Yi Annie touched the flashlight in her hand and the hiking bag she was carrying, and was a little unsure whether these things really existed.
Compared to the exit at the other end of the cave she had explored with Noah's family a few weeks ago, much of the road there was crumbling and disintegrating under the backflow of seawater; The end of the vicinity of the White Horn Nursing Home is probably still under the protection of some mysterious forces, and the internal structure of the cave is very complete, and huge gypsum rock pillars can be seen everywhere, which are beautiful and magnificent, but also mysterious and terrifying.
Combined with the current situation, Iannie made some analysis of the reasons for the return of Noah's mother on a rainy night - this is also the beginning of everything after her change of career.
It was precisely because the cave of the "Secret Land" collapsed on the west bank of Noah Province that caused the water to pour in, and the body of Noah's mother, who accidentally fell into the water, was washed into the cave, thus being contaminated with some mysterious powers from the "Promised Land", and then led to the return of her ghost and the taking of her relatives to find her body.
So, from the letter sent by Noah to be chosen by the master Lulu, and even Steven's retirement, Annenie became the editor of the mystery edition, etc., are all related to the power of the "Promised Land"?
In addition, the murderer of the serial murder also came from Naya City, where Noah was located, so is it also because of the return of Noah's mother, who is tainted with the atmosphere of "Mysterious Place", that inspired the power of some related objects in the murderer's home?
This information should have been communicated to Xiande and Gazir, who had come to deal with the unfinished business of the year, but Yi Annie was now powerless and could only continue to move forward.
Theoretically, the cavern system should often have many branching paths, and Anne also plans to use the bits and pieces in the hiking bag as a signpost. However, she didn't know how long she had been walking, and there was only one path in front of her, apparently a mysterious force was summoning her somewhere.
Successfully passing through several stone chambers, Yi Anne found no signs of special concern along the way. It's just that when he was about to step into the next stone chamber, he kicked something under his feet and fell to the ground.
Yi Annie was startled, the thing she had just kicked was soft and seemed to move.
Turning around, I swept over with a flashlight and saw that a mass of black-gray fur on the ground had shrunk into a ball, as if I had been greatly frightened.
Yi Annie also said "huh" suspiciously, it was obviously a living animal, she cautiously stepped forward and touched it, it was warm, soft, and very comfortable. Instead, the creature stretched out, poked its head out between the two short hands holding its head, and looked around.
This cute action swept away Yi Annie's nervousness: "Sea otter? ”
From the creature's cuteness to the explosion, Anne says the name of an animal. In fact, there are quite a few sea otters living near Noe Province, and they usually gather together to float on the surface of the sea. Presumably, this one slid into the crevice of the rock, or ran here from somewhere else, and then got stuck here.
The "sea otter" didn't seem to see Annenie's presence, but after being kicked, he was obviously a little vigilant, and when he saw that there was no one, he stepped out of his short limbs and ran into the darkness. When the "sea otter" stretched out its whole body, Yi Annie realized that the "sea otter" in front of her had a flat tail, so that it was not a sea otter but a beaver.
This made Anne even more strange.
Beavers are creatures that live in freshwater, so they're relatively less likely to be here, right?
The beaver in front of her had already run into the darkness that the flashlight could not reach, and Anne shook her head, intending to continue walking into the cave.
Suddenly, her heels tightened, her feet were wrong, she inexplicably tripped her front foot and fell to the ground.
This fall was very inexplicable, and when Yi Annie sat up from the ground in a daze, she felt herself, although she felt that the fall hurt all over her body, but she didn't even have a little bruise, and she thought that she would report to her body in the world. Then I swept the place where I had fallen with a flashlight, and there was nothing there, what the hell happened just now.
Puzzled, she stood up and said to herself, "I should go on." ”
Taking a further step, Anne stumbled again and fell where she had just been.
This process was repeated several times, and then Anne suddenly realized, "Why did I just go forward?" ”
These few falls, it is obvious that there is some force stopping her from moving forward.
At this time, Anne suddenly noticed that the sound of the sea and pebbles that she had remembered in the original seaside crevices was still ringing. At the time, Anne thought it was from the sea, but it was strange that she could still hear it after she had been walking deeper into the cave for an unknown amount of time.
Did the voice disappear on the way forward, or did it always exist but was ignored by Anne?
In the first time on the car radio, Anne had always thought it was the talking/cursing voice of the mastermind, but when she heard a similar wave on the shore, she finally changed her mind. But at this point, it would be absolutely wrong to think that it was just the sound of water.
At first, Yi Annie obviously didn't want to go deep into this cave at all, but if she hadn't fallen so much, by the time she finally really reacted, she didn't know how far she had gone. I wonder if it was this strange sound that caused Anne to be unconscious before she walked into the cave?
At this time, Yi Annie continued to rub her waist and thought about turning around and returning to the entrance to wait for rescue, but found that the dim pillar of light projected by the old flashlight in her hand began to flicker.
This made Yi Annie suddenly creepy, and for a moment she couldn't tell if the flashlight had broken during the wrestling just now, or if it was affected by some evil force.
Don't ......
Thinking so, Anne took a step forward and strode towards the road she had come from, the way she had come was still relatively gentle, so her steps were much faster when she returned.
However, things did not go as expected, and before I could leave the stone room where I was now, the frequency of the flashlight flickered suddenly, and then, a slight "pop" came from somewhere in the flashlight, and I don't know if it was the circuit or the bulb - in short, Anne fell into darkness.
"Ahh As the darkness suddenly descended, Yi Annie couldn't help but cry out.
At this time, I don't know whether this cry was due to fear or emotion. She had expected the flashlight to fail, but it had come much faster than she had imagined.
Now, Iannie stood alone in the dark, not knowing what to do.
Theoretically, she could still try to figure her way back and forth, but with the guidance of a flashlight, she was able to find the main road in the cavern. On the way back, although there should be no risk of branch roads, one accidentally touched the stone forest in the stone chamber, and I don't know if I will get lost in it.
