They were all standing next to the carcass of the animal, a little red like flowers blooming in the snow.

"This is a polar bear?" Zhao Zixuan squatted in front of the corpse's head and saw that the monster was hit in the right eye by a bullet, piercing the back of the head with a wound the size of a bowl. Yan Cannon's marksmanship was extremely accurate, and he hit the vital point with just one shot. In appearance, the animal does resemble a polar bear, but it is more shapely, with slender limbs, and much larger than a polar bear.

"It's a short-faced bear! It has been extinct for 2 million years. King Peter glanced at it and confirmed, "I forgot to tell you that I have been studying paleontology!" ”

"What is a short-faced bear!" Yan Dacang smiled: "Isn't this the blind bear?" After speaking, he took out the bayonet, squatted on the ground, disemboweled the short-faced bear, and after a while, he took out a gray-green bear bile, looked around at everyone, emptied his kettle, put the bear bile in, and said happily: "Bear bile, this is a good thing, detoxification!" ”

Chen Yi looked at everyone and urged: "Let's go, who knows if this guy has the same kind, hurry up and go to that mountain col!" ”

"What's the hurry! Isn't this body of meat wasted? I'll have to wait until I get this skin peeled! How good this hair is! "It's rare to see anything in this Yan cannon.

"If you don't want to leave, just stay here!" Chen Yi said coldly, turned around and walked away.

"What's wrong with this girl!" Yan Cannon also stopped what he was doing in wonder.

"Lao Zhang, why did you mess with her." Zhao Zixuan asked in a low voice.

"You're crazy, how could I mess with her!" Zhang Xiaohu felt inexplicable...

Yan Dacang finally brought back two bear paws, and the entire bear skin was also ripped off by him, and the whole person laughed as if he had picked up a gold ingot.

Chenyi stood in front of the cave and began to carry equipment and supplies into it alone. Seeing this, Zhang Xiaohu hurriedly stepped forward to help him, and the two of them were silent and didn't say a word to each other.

Finally, Zhang Xiaohu spoke first: "Chenyi, if you are unhappy, I solemnly apologize to you!" If you are because I gave the silver ball to Yichen, you don't have to, Yichen is not an outsider, it is another you! I know you, you have always been a gentle and considerate little sister, you can't be really angry with me, we have always been best friends! ”

Chen Yi waited for a while before replying, "Alas! I'm not mad at you, it's just that what we're going to do now is a big deal about whether we can go back or not, but look at our team, do you look a little serious! Drink! Hunt! There was talk and laughter along the way, so I really couldn't see any hope of success. You know, I've been waiting to go home for 240 years, and I don't want to wait any longer! ”

"Don't worry, we'll succeed this time!" Zhang Xiaohu swore and said: "Even if I fail in the end, I will stay with you and will not let you be alone again." ”

"Hmm!" Chen Yi's bright eyes, looking at Zhang Xiaohu's serious appearance, couldn't help but be gentle, "I'm not angry, you also go and restrain these people, especially that Yan Cannon, that guy is stupid on the surface, but he is very shrewd in the mainland, we have to mention him, don't have an accident!" ”

"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on him!"

After entering the cave, everyone lit torches, and Yan Cannon still explored the way, but the team was finally replaced by Zhang Xiaohu.

To their surprise, the cave was only a little dark, the temperature was moderate, and they found a lot of long-abandoned torches on the way, which Chen Yi said were all the supplies she had left here for backup.

The crowd walked in the darkness for about four or five hours when they saw a large cave in front of them, full of stalactites.

Inside the cave, there is a simple wooden shed, in which a lot of materials are piled up.

"Do you see the hole in front of you, this is where I'm going, you can put your extra supplies and equipment here." Chenyi told everyone that this was where she used to live, and as she spoke, she took out a dusty dagger from the wooden shed and stuck it in her boots.

"The air inside is a little muddy, everyone wear masks." Chen Yi distributed the masks made of coarse cloth to everyone, and Zhang Xiaohu found that a special cloth bag was sewn on the front end of the mask, which should contain carbon particles and other filtering things. It's also a simple gas mask.

Chen Yi emphasized: "The space in the cave is small, if you encounter a monitor lizard, try not to shoot if you can, so many of us are easy to be injured by mistake." ”

King Peter asked, "Lady God, can you briefly describe what the monitor lizard looks like?" ”

Chen Yi thought for a while and said, "That kind of monitor lizard is about four to five meters long, with thick limbs, a very long tail, and the scales on its body are all gray, it looks very hard, and there are some yellow spots mixed with it. ”

King Peter confirmed, "Finished? That's it? Seeing Chen Yi nodding, he analyzed: "Most lizards meet the characteristics you said, the only thing to pay attention to is that this length, four to five meters has reached the length of a Komodo dragon, so his species is not very easy to judge." But on the other hand, lizards are cold-blooded animals after all, and the larger they are, the more they prefer warm climates, and although this cave is not cold, it is not hot. Cold-blooded animals in a low temperature environment will exacerbate the consumption of body energy, resulting in problems with their entire body functions. For example, snakes in the wild hibernate when the temperature gets colder, and in the process, 30% of them die due to insufficient energy reserves. If there is such a big monitor lizard in this cave, it needs a lot of food to replenish it, so its survival attribute determines that it must be very aggressive, and it is a natural killer. "King Peter made a detailed analysis of the monitor lizard from just a few words of Chenyi, which proves that it is indeed quite a study in the field of biology.

"Why don't I understand what you're saying!" Yan Dacang on the side sighed: "I understand that thing is a killer, don't worry, with Lao Tzu here, don't be afraid of anything!" After saying that, he was about to enter with a torch, but was stopped by King Peter, and said, "Don't go in yet, you can't use this torch anymore, the hot light source will change the temperature in this cave, making it easier for the monitor lizard to find us, so we should use a cold light source next." ”

Chenyi has a feeling of enlightenment, no wonder no matter how careful you were before, those monitor lizards can always find themselves, it's like lighting a torch in the dark, no matter how much you cover yourself, others will still find you. She hurriedly took out a lot of cold light sources to distribute to everyone, including headlamps, flashlights, and some cold fireworks. "Uncle Yan, you are lighting in the front, and the others must follow behind!" Her concern was whether the energy would be sufficient to support the expedition.

Yan Dacang had a headlamp on his head, carefully leading the way in front, and the group behind followed closely, and after walking for a while, the direction of the cave began to slope downward.

In the silent cave, only a faint light emanated from the front, and everyone walked extra carefully to prevent falling.

"Lao Zhang, are you behind?" Zhao Zixuan asked softly, the dark environment around him made him feel very depressed and frightened in his heart. Maybe it's what people often call a phobia of darkness, and he feels that if he doesn't make some sound, he is about to collapse. "Here it is!" Hearing Zhang Xiaohu's response, he felt a little better in his heart, and with a trusted partner behind him, it seemed that the situation was not particularly bad.

"Lao Zhang, is Yichen in front of you?" Zhao Zixuan asked again.

"Isn't Yichen ahead of you? You don't have to run out of words, okay! Zhang Xiaohu replied angrily, this special environment really makes people unable to control their emotions. What's more, Zhang Xiaohu is at the back of the team, and he has to pay attention to the situation behind him at any time, and his nerves are already highly tense.

Yichen listened to the two of them arguing, and couldn't help laughing, I hadn't heard them talk so poor for a long time, Yichen said, "Senior, you don't have to pay attention to him, I'm by Senior Zhao's side." ”

"What's the noise in the back, be quiet!" Chenyi's voice came from the front, stopping everyone from talking. The crowd quickly regained their silence and walked forward in silence.

After walking for most of the day, everyone was very tired, so Chenyi ordered everyone to stop and rest for a while. Everyone had to sit around in the dark and eat simple food. Yichen sat down next to Zhang Xiaohu and asked gently: "Senior, I feel as if I have seen Lord Shenpo somewhere, and I have a familiar feeling......

Zhang Xiaohu raised his hand and gently touched Yichen's head, smiled helplessly, and did not speak. He didn't know if he should tell Yichen or not, but it was definitely not appropriate at this moment. Yichen sat quietly, didn't ask again, sat next to the senior, felt very quiet inside, had a very safe and satisfied feeling, and smiled unconsciously. No one saw a trace of complexity flash in Chenyi's eyes.

"Chenyi, how long did you walk this hole last time?" Zhang Xiaohu asked, curious about how long he could endure alone in the cave.

"After three days of going back and forth, I really couldn't stand the environment in the cave, and when we calculated the time we traveled, we were almost close to the place I had last arrived, that is, where I found the monitor lizard, and I shot and killed two of them at that time, and the time was calculated decades ago." Chen Yi withdrew the eyes that fell on Yichen and said slowly.

Hearing this, Yan Dacang put the bayonet on the Mauser G98, checked the state of the gun again, and said, "Lao Tzu really wants to meet that monitor lizard to see if it is really that powerful." ”

After resting for an hour, several people began to walk again, the space inside the cave became narrower and narrower, the temperature around them gradually increased, and at the same time, some small droplets of water began to seep out of the cave walls.
