In addition to the lack of blood on the knife, Ozerov was also very strange, if it was really Peter, and the crew must have shot him, why was he okay?

At this time, Karlev, who arrived in a hurry, asked, that is, did the man in the diving suit just now confirm that it was Peter?

Sakharov of the survey team said that there were two sets of diving suits, the number A was Ivan, the number D was Peter, and the diving suit found before was number A, which was Ivan's, so there was no doubt that the person who appeared just now must be Peter.

Ozerov asked the previous crew if they could read the number of the wetsuit? But the team members said that because it was too dark and the incident was urgent, they didn't bother to observe this at all.

By now, they had lost five of them, and they didn't know what had happened to make Peter like that.

Karlev felt strange, the diving suit had no oxygen supply tube, and it stands to reason that Peter could not breathe underwater, and even if he could hold his breath for a while, he could not suddenly emerge from the water and attack others, after all, human body functions did not allow this.

But Sakharov suddenly said: "What if that is not Peter?" What if that's not a person? ”

Sakharov was originally a member of EAO, and he had seen a lot of strange things, so as soon as he said this, he really frightened others.

Sakharov had wanted to give an example of the bear-man they had encountered, but telling the story would frighten everyone at this time, so he shook his head and suggested that he start taking turns tonight, double the number of guards, and discuss what to do next tomorrow.

When everyone woke up the next day, they found that the last shift last night was missing, a total of 6 people, and they disappeared silently, no sound, no one shot, only the messy footprints in the wetland and the traces left by the human body being dragged.

Just when Ozerov and the others were surveying the scene, there was a heart-rending scream from the direction of the tent, they thought that Peter appeared in the tent, and immediately rushed back, who knew that when they entered the tent, they knew that the scream was made by the dangerous team member last night, and the reason why he screamed was that both of his feet turned into white bones.

This scene frightened everyone present, everyone panicked, Karlev, as the leader of the research team, immediately called the doctor who accompanied the team, and the doctor was even more puzzled after examination, only bones were left in his feet, but there was no blood flowing out of the connection with his ankles, as if something had disinfected the wound and stopped the bleeding, which was not possible at the time of medical technology.

The team member claimed to be completely painless, meaning that he had lost the flesh on his feet without being aware of it.

The strange things that happened one after another made the three team leaders unanimously decide that this place could not stay for a long time, and it was necessary to leave this place immediately.

However, the orders from their superiors required them to be on standby here and wait at least five more days before they could be brought back to the Soviet Union, and it was the right thing to do, after all, when they came.

However, the rest of these people couldn't wait at all, so they directly packed up their things and left the wild frog ditch immediately, and they also had the heart to wipe out most of the traces they left.

Before leaving, Ozerov said: "Now this is a problem for the Chinese." ”

Yes, after that time, what existed in the Wild Frog Gully turned from a useful secret to a problem, which is why the Russians did not set foot in the Wild Frog Gully for decades afterward, not because they were afraid of fighting, but that no matter how brave the people were, they would be afraid in the face of the unknown, and the fighting people were no exception.

After Xie Meng finished speaking, Wei Chiran immediately said: "I know, what you want to convey to us has already been said, and the next step is for us to explore the secrets about the underwater, right?" ”

Xie Meng smiled, didn't say a word, and waited for a long time before saying: "A batch of equipment will be sent tomorrow, this is the more advanced diving equipment now, a total of six sets, we all have to go into the water." ”

Hou Wan subconsciously looked at the mountain wall with human bones: "Those four college students were killed by that strange creature?" ”

Xie Meng said: "It should be." ”

There are still many secrets in the Wild Frog Gully, such as when did 517 discover the Wild Frog Gully, did they discover it themselves, or did EAO take the initiative to tell it? Why didn't 517 start researching it after discovering the secret? Why not just block the Wild Frog Gully?

Xie Meng is clear about these questions, but she absolutely can't answer them at the moment.

However, Wei Chiran always felt that there seemed to be something hidden in Xie Meng's words, she seemed to be beating around the bush to tell herself something, but there was no way to say it directly.

What is it? Wei Chi fell into deep thought, and until the night, he sat there and repeatedly recalled the story Xie Meng said, and the timeline of the story, as well as the things she had deliberately omitted.

In the evening, Wei Chiran saw Hou Wan walking in the wetland, and he went straight up and asked, "Aren't you afraid that thing will come out and drag you into the water?" ”

Hou Wan stopped and said, "Don't you think it's strange? When the first Japanese were here, they didn't encounter that kind of monster, but the Russians did. ”

Wei Chiran looked at the wetland and said: "The only explanation is that after the Russians tried to dive, they encountered that kind of thing, so it caused the monster to wake up and start hunting, I think it is relatively appropriate to use the word hunting, in the eyes of that thing, we are all prey." ”

Hou Wan nodded and said, "Your analysis is correct, but since we are prey and have been in Wild Frog Gully for a while, why didn't that thing appear and attack us?" ”

Wei Chiran was also puzzled: "That's right, that monster attacked those four college students a year ago, why didn't it attack us?" ”

Wei Chiran was sorting out the chronological order in his mind, and the Saker and Fang Xunyi in the space in his mind were also helping him sort out the order.

At first, it was the wild frog ditch discovered by the Japanese, and although a series of bizarre events occurred, no monsters that attacked people appeared; Then the Soviets learned about the Wild Frog Gully from the Japanese, but they were not interested in the dark cave that could change people's minds, they were only interested in the dark plank, so they decided to enter from below to see what was under the dark plank, but who knew that they were attacked by something that existed under the wetland, and because of the current situation, they finally left; Decades later, four college students strayed into the Wild Frog Gully, all four of them were killed, and after Wei Chi entered the dark cave, he even heard the radio call from a year ago, and the terrifying murderous monster did not even appear to attack them.

Could it be that there is a specific choice for monster hunting and killing?

The point is, what is that monster?

All the answers may be revealed after entering the water tomorrow, but Wei Chiran suddenly figured out what Xie Meng was going to tell him in an instant.

Thinking of this, Wei Chiran was also a little relieved, at least he knew that Xie Meng was not a real enemy.

At noon the next day, Xie Meng led everyone to find the diving equipment dropped by air at the predetermined location in the mountain forest.

Who supplies these devices? I'm afraid fools will know that 517 gave it. This is within the boundaries of Chinese territory, and there is cooperation between EAO and 517, and within this range, it can only be 517 that supplies equipment, and it cannot be EAO.

But why did 517 choose the airdrop method? This is strange.

Because Wei Chi Chi had thought clearly about the most important question yesterday, he didn't ask Xie Meng.

After returning to Wild Frog Gully with their equipment, they immediately began to put on their equipment and then prepared to go straight into the water.

This kind of behavior is extremely reckless in the eyes of Hou Wan and Wei Chiran, now it is different from the past, since 517 can provide these equipment, then the underwater detection equipment must also be provided, at least to detect what is underwater, and only go into the water after figuring out the situation, do nothing, just go down so recklessly, isn't this the same as the group of Russians at the beginning?

Faced with questioning, Xie Meng just said: "I don't have time, Benny's life is in my hands." ”

A simple sentence made Wei Chi Ran understand that Xie Meng was also forced to be helpless, but Xie Meng's face was not afraid or afraid, and he also explained in advance that she was the first to go into the water, and the rest of the people followed her.

This sentence also made Wei Chi realize that it was not that Xie Meng did not detect what was in the water, but that she knew what was under the water at all.

Soon, after everyone was ready, Xie Meng was the first to jump into the wetland pool, followed by Hou Wan and Wei Chiran, followed by Xingshu, Sima Qing and Yun Jian.

After the six of them entered the water, according to Xie Meng's instructions, they carried the heavy lead block and sank all the way, and after passing through the thick aquatic plants below, the bottom suddenly opened up.

Wei Chi looked carefully towards the bottom of the water, and found that the environment below was like the ocean, and it had nothing to do with the wetlands above, just as they were not crossing the layer of aquatic plants, but space, from the northeast directly to the bottom of a certain sea area.

Stepping on the soft sand beneath his feet, the lieutenant concluded that he was not hallucinating, and then he saw a creature resembling a sea serpent swimming slowly from a distance.

At that moment, all six of them stopped moving, stood in place, and all subconsciously pulled out the underwater daggers they carried, but the sea snake didn't seem to see them at all, and swam straight past them and swam into the distance.

Xie Meng put away his dagger and made a gesture for them to move on.

Swimming about ten meters ahead, Wei Chi calculated in his heart, and swam about twenty meters to reach the bottom of the grid cave, but Xie Meng suddenly swam to the right, and then pointed to the fine sand below.

Subsequently, Xie Meng continued to dive, came to the bottom of the water, and dragged a diving suit directly out from the bottom of the water with his hands.

It was an old-fashioned diving suit, and you can clearly see the broken safety rope and oxygen supply tube on the diving suit, plus Xie Meng wiped the layer of soil on the surface of the diving suit, and the letter "D" exposed made everyone understand that this was the diving suit worn by Peter, one of the missing Soviet people back then.

Wei Chiran and Hou Wan naturally glanced at each other, how did Xie Meng know that Peter's diving suit was here?

I'm afraid there is only one answer, that is, Xie Meng has been to this place a long time ago and found Peter's diving suit.

After Xie Meng put down her diving suit, she pointed ahead, motioned for everyone to follow her, and then led the rest of the people to swim for about twenty meters, stopped, raised her hand and pointed ahead.

Everyone looked in the direction Xie Meng pointed out, and saw that in the deep water ahead, there was an ancient building.
