Chapter 242: Kuroshio
In just four words, the falcon made Wei Chiran and Yin Wanmeng realize that the wood plague had finally led its demon army to appear.
But in the jungle in front of him, it was still pitch black, and those alienated beasts, because of the control of the wood plague, their eyes became pitch black, and they would not emit a terrifying green light in the darkness.
"Hurry up and get on board." The lieutenant chiseled the two of them, and he himself guarded the surroundings with weapons in his hands.
Yin Wanmeng and Saker immediately climbed in along the window, they didn't know that Bai Zhi had already installed a detection device in the window, no matter what anything passed through here, the instrument in his hand would receive a message.
Under the cabin, Bai Zhi looked at the message sent back by the instrument, and called Tang She and said, "They came in, there are three signals in total, it must be them." ”
Tang She said: "It's okay, let them follow." ”
After Wei Chiran and the others climbed into the cabin, because they didn't know the direction in which Tang She and the others were going, and the cabin was open in all directions, they could only look for some sounds from the lower cabin.
What they didn't know was that when they left the window, a figure slowly walked out of the jungle, it was Zhang Tiezhu, who had been possessed by the wood plague, and the forest kicker who was originally used as a sacrifice.
Zhang Tiezhu stood there staring at the Mary in the dark, and only raised his hand slightly.
Immediately after this gesture, a Kuroshio Tide surged out of the jungle, and the Kuroshio was made up of animals under his control on the island, and those alien animals immediately surrounded the Mary, followed by a swarm of snakes and bats, the smallest of which were suitable for reconnaissance work in the Mary, through the window.
In the lower cabin, just as Tang Anshu, An Wanghai and the two trench team members were trying to open the cargo hold door, they heard Bai Zhi suddenly say, "Wait." ”
Tang She turned around and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Xingshu watched Bai Zhi stare at the instrument in his hand, realized that something was wrong, and stepped forward to check.
Bai Zhi looked at the signal returned by the instrument in his hand: "One, two......"
The number of signals returned from the instrument is constantly climbing, from single digits to tens, and from tens to hundreds, which is surprisingly fast.
Bai Zhi patted the instrument and said, "Is this thing broken, why are so many people coming in all of a sudden?" ”
The torturer realized something, and directly loaded the weapon in his hand: "That's not a person. ”
Bai Zhi also suddenly understood: "Wood plague! ”
Tang She looked at Tang Anshu and the others in front of him: "Hold on!" Hurry up, hurry up! ”
The heavy hatch could not be smashed open, so they had no choice but to use explosives, although the explosives were very likely to cause the collapse of the ship that had been abandoned on the island for ninety-two years, but in order to fulfill Tang Anshu's wish, they could only take a risk.
After the explosion, the door was finally blown open, and the hull began to shake violently.
The three of them, who were about to reach the lower cabin, supported each other, and stood there looking at the dust that shook off their heads, and the long-decayed structure of the ship that fell from time to time, and they did not continue to move forward until the shaking was over.
Tang Anshu was the first to rush into the cargo hold, and without any difficulty, he found the bones of Raimaru, Yexin and Le Zhengxian under the box on the side.
Tang Anshu knelt directly on the ground, Lei Maru was burly, so the bones could be distinguished at a glance, and the one wearing the dress next to him was undoubtedly Yexin, who had always loved beauty, and the one on the side was undoubtedly Le Zhengxian.
Tang She stepped forward and said in a low voice: "I don't want to do this, but I still have to remind you, hurry up." ”
Tang Anshu and An Wanghai stepped forward and picked up the three skeletons into waterproof bags, and then everyone was about to leave, when they heard a conversation outside, which was a warning from the trench team.
Tang She walked out of the cargo hold and saw Wei Chiran and the three of them coming over.
Tang She said: "We are not here to find Ling Jian. ”
Wei Chiran looked directly at the bag in Tang Anshu and An Wanghai's hands.
Tang She immediately said, "I advise you not to see what is in that bag." ”
Tang Anshu looked at Wei Chiran with a cold look, and then passed by him directly.
Yin Wanmeng was not reconciled, and rushed directly into the cargo hold to search, turning the cargo hold into a mess, and the sound of rummaging reached the ears of Tang Anshu, who was about to leave, Tang Anshu handed the bag in his hand to An Wanghai and advised: "Help me take care of Yexin." ”
With that, Tang Anshu turned around and walked into the cargo hold and walked straight towards Yin Wanmeng.
Seeing this, Wei Chiran directly blocked in front of Tang Anshu, Tang Anshu easily restrained him, and at the same time as the Saker on one side pulled out his gun, Tang She and the others outside the door also held guns and aimed at the Saker.
Yin Wanmeng got up slowly, she knew that she was impulsive, so she had to say, "Let's leave immediately." ”
Tang Anshu said coldly: "While I can still control myself, get out in ten seconds." ”
In addition to obedience, Wei Chiran and the others had no way, but Yin Wanmeng's hands were trembling, and Wei Chiran could see that she was disappointed.
Perhaps, what agreement Yin Wanmeng has reached with Hou Wan, as long as she does something, maybe it is to find Ling Jian, what will be given to her.
What does Yin Wanmeng want? After all, it is impossible for a lone soldier to release any of his disciples.
In the upper cabin of the Mary, there was already a black tide, bats hanging upside down, and those black snakes were hovering around, they had already figured out the location of Wei Chiran and the others, and were waiting for the order of their master, Mu Plague.
Outside the cabin, the wood plague, which had been closing its eyes, opened its eyes sharply and took a deep breath, as if it was longing for the air of this world.
At the same time, there was also the sound of metal clashing from the Mary, and Tang She and the others collided with the long spears with their short guns, and began to disperse the alienated animals that were blocking their way.
Countless snakes and bats, unable to stand the sound of metal impact, began to evacuate in groups, flying away and crawling out through the windows they entered.
Wood Plague just looked up at the dormant volcano next to it, and halfway up the mountainside, a group of alien animals were trying to push a large rock away from its original position, and the target was the Mary below.
The sound of metal from the Mary was like a slogan to push the alienated animals away from the rocks, and each sound represented the rocks getting closer and closer to the edge of the cliffs.
Finally, as the sound of metal drew closer and closer to the window, the rock rolled down from the mountainside, and struck directly above the Mary, collapsing above the hull, because a huge hole had appeared in the upper deck of the Mary.
Tang She and the others who were in the Mary were also injured as a result, and smashed directly into the rocks in the hull, killing the three trench team members along the way.
Bai Zhi looked at the three team members who were directly smashed down by the rock, and they were crazy and wanted to go up to the rescue, but they were caught by Tang She.
Tang She just said calmly: "Calm down! ”
Bai Zhi couldn't calm down, not to mention that this was his first time as a team leader, and the atmosphere in the trench has always been good, even if there is a conflict, everyone will slowly resolve it because they are friends of life and death, they are like a family, just like brothers.
Tang She suppressed Bai Zhi to death, and it took a long time for Bai Zhi to calm down, but then came a swarm of bats that fished in from the hole.
The rest of the people banged desperately on the barrel of the gun, dispersing the group of alienated bats with fangs and trying to tear them apart, but their arms would be unbearable after a long beating, and the guns themselves would not be able to withstand it.
"Do you have an external device!?" Wei Chiran shouted not far away, "Record the percussion and play it repeatedly!" ”
Wei Chiran reminded Tang She and the others, and they immediately ordered the rest of the people to record the percussion sound with mobile phones and other devices that could be recorded, and then used drones to start playing, immediately dispersing the swarm of bats that were still hovering around.
The second time they repelled the attack of the wood plague, but they faced a siege.
Everyone was trapped in the wreckage of the ship, staring at each other, also wary of the hole above, although no alien animals had entered now, they knew that once they got out, they still faced the dilemma of being besieged.
Even if they could use the sound of metal knocking to disperse those alienated animals, once the various equipment in their hands lost power, they would lose their last barrier, and then they would be swarmed by the alienated animals and torn to pieces.
When Tang She and Tang Anshu and others were discussing how to get out of this predicament, Yin Wanmeng found that the rock had sunk to the bottom of the hull, and what was even more strange was that when she lay on the edge of the hole and shone it with a flashlight, she found that there seemed to be a cave at the bottom, and she faintly heard the sound of water.
Yin Wanmeng informed Wei Chiran of the discovery, and Wei Chiran lay on the edge of the hole and watched: "It seems that the rock has penetrated the entire ship from top to bottom." ”
Yin Wanmeng said: "Maybe there is a cave below, we can leave through the cave." ”
Wei Chiran looked in the direction of Tang She and the others: "You must first determine whether there is a cave below." ”
Saying that, Wei Chiran crawled towards Tang She, although the other party was still hostile to him, but after Wei Chiran explained the situation, Bai Zhi immediately sent a drone to the bottom to detect.
The real-time footage transmitted by the drone allowed Bai Zhi and Tang She to see that there was indeed a cave below, and it seemed to be safe in the cave, and there was an underground river that did not know the depth.
Xingshu leaned over and looked at it for a while and said, "According to my experience, you should be able to find a way out along the underground river, and generally speaking, the inland rivers of the island should lead to the sea. ”
Tang She reminded on the side: "Don't forget, there is something called wood shrimp on the coastline here. ”
Bai Zhi looked at the top of his head: "In this situation, even if there are wooden shrimp on the coastline, we still have to go down, and we can only wait for death if we stay here." ”
After deliberating, the group began to secure the rope, and then slid down the rope into the cavern below, under the cover of the rhythmic sound of metal pounding.
The group landed on the rock, then slid down to the underground river in the cave.
It was not so much a river as a relatively wide stream, as it was less than four centimeters deep.
After testing the water quality with an instrument, he said: "It's fresh water, you can drink it directly, at least we don't have to worry about being thirsty to death." ”
In order to delay the pursuit of the alien animals, the group left a cell phone fixed to the rock, constantly playing the sound of metal tapping repeatedly, and praying that they could find an exit in the cave before the phone ran out of power.
