When you enter the hole, it is cloudy and windy, and it is pitch black.

Even if you go in a beam of light, you can't see the end of the rock road, and there are large and small stones under your feet, which is very difficult to walk. Fortunately, Shui Qing supported each other, and Mo Yunxia in the back showed us the way so that we wouldn't fall. Chu He was thinking about the safety of Xiaoli, and he was more and more unwilling to slow down. Shui Qing was still holding on to the rock wall at first, but then accidentally scratched his hand by the hard and sharp rock, so he could only follow the team forward without making a sound.

"Jinbi, I didn't understand what you just said in a panic. Are you saying that Xiaoli stumbled and fell into some strange lake? Zhuo Ying in front of him helped Jin Bi and asked breathlessly. That's good, how could he stumble? ”

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault......" Jin Bi heard Xiaoli's name and whimpered again, "He asked me to hold him, and he said he was really dizzy." I thought he was squeamish, so I let him find a place to rest on his own, and he would fall into that thing! It's all my fault, it's me who hurt Xiaoli, it's me who killed him! ”

"Don't worry, Xiaoli knows water, even if he is injured, he will definitely not be drowned." Zhuo Ying stroked Jin Bi's back, but his tone couldn't help but be a little hesitant, "It's just that you didn't say that you also pulled him, why didn't you pull him up?" ”

"Yes! We were all terrified, and I hurried to grab him, but it didn't work...... Not really! I can't pull him up, he's sucked by that strange lake, I can't pull him up at all! ”

"What do you mean, what does it mean to be sucked, do you mean there's something in the lake that is holding him back? Are there crocodiles? ”

"No, no! There is nothing in that lake, nothing holds the small ceremony, it is the lake, it is the lake that holds the small ceremony! ”

"What... What do you mean...... Are you saying that there are whirlpools in the lake......? ”

"No, it's not! Nothing! That strange lake... Nothing, no crocodiles, no whirlpools ... There is no water either! That's not water! Is it something else... What is it... Silver... The strength is terrifying - pull Xiaoli in! ”

"What are you talking about......" Zhuo Ying wondered, "Didn't you say it was a lake, how could there be no water, how could there be no water-"

"-Zhuo Ying, don't ask." Chu He interrupted suddenly, his voice containing obvious complaints, "Look at Jinbi's current appearance, what can you ask?" They must have experienced something terrible, it could be man-made, it could be supernatural! How do you explain that your name is Jinbi? When we arrived, our eyes saw it, and everything was clear! ”

Zhuo Ying wanted to say something, but Shui Qing pulled her sleeve in time, so she was barely silent.

The further you go, the lower and narrower the passage becomes, until at last you can barely pass through it. I didn't have Shui Qing side by side, and I couldn't help but look back at Mo Yunxia, who didn't say a word and only focused on lighting the way for me, but he was already bowing his head and turning sideways, and it was very difficult.

The slope of the rock road became steeper and steeper, and I was sweating all over my body, but I felt more and more wet and cold. The atmosphere seemed to change subtly in the sound of everyone's heavy breathing, but no one was willing to speak again.

I couldn't help but wonder what kind of mood the two people who had been injured on the head just now and Jinbi, who had always been in poor physical strength, walked through this strange cave, and whether they had a premonition that the terrible danger was like a sleeping beast grinding huge blood-colored fangs, quietly waiting for their arrival in the cave.

"Here we are, here we are!"

While pondering, Chu He, who was walking in the front, suddenly shouted excitedly. I looked up suddenly, only to see a narrow cluster of silvery-white light in the darkness ahead. Before they had time to think about where this strange light came from, everyone was overjoyed and sped up the speed under their feet.

The moment I walked out of the rock road, my heart was suddenly enlightened by the light of seeing the light again after being depressed for a long time. But looking at the scene in the cave again, the mood instantly cooled down again.

It's a huge circular cave, and it's even a little unbelievably round.

The space here is about 200 square meters, and there is no grass and nothing, which makes it look extremely empty and strange. The surrounding rock walls are completely different from the artificial tunnels leading to this place, and they are as smooth as if someone had polished them. I put my hand on the smooth, wet rock wall, and felt as if I was in a huge round ceramic vase—

"Look!"

Everyone looked up at the sky in the direction of Shui Qing's finger. I saw a small gap 100 meters above the cave, which was also almost perfectly round. Faintly penetrated into the faint moonlight, and there was still rain falling into the hole along the gap above, but it was already dripping and much smaller.

I slowly followed the rain down to the ground. As far as the eye could see, his heart suddenly tightened, and the cold shock swept over in an instant, freezing every inch of flesh and blood around his body.

"It's ...... What the hell. ”

Shui Qing leaned over, trembling and holding my shoulders, I struggled to resist the limp of my legs, not daring to take my eyes off the unfocused—the center of the cave floor was filled with a pool of silver liquid. The rain dripped from above and fell on the thin liquid, with strange silver-white ripples, reflecting the dazzling waves against the moonlight.

"This is—" I heard Chu He's weak voice faintly coming, "—is it mercury?" ”

No one has an answer. His questions echoed like pebbles thrown into a deep well in this strange circular cavern, and then a dead silence returned.

"Xiao Li, Xiao Li, he just fell into this strange lake..."Jin Bi sobbed tremblingly, "and suddenly... A beam of light, and he was sucked in. ”

As we listened to Jinbi's vague description, we felt a little confused. I turned to look at Zhuo Ying, who was the most knowledgeable, and saw that she also had the same expression as me, frowning deeply, staring at the liquid substance in front of me with some fear.

While groaning, I saw Mo Yunxia suddenly step forward, take off the coat draped on my body with very light movements, and quickly throw it into the silver-white lake.

"-Yunxia, what are you doing......"

The astonishment instantly choked his throat - the coat that had been thrown into the lake did not sink at first, but only rippled in a calm circle. But between the ripples, countless dense silver-white threads surged up in an instant, and the poor black coat was heavily wrapped like a kite with broken wings, and fell powerlessly into the silver-white lake.

And just before the silver lake was about to return to calm, a very bright white pillar of light suddenly rose from the surface of the lake and shot straight towards the gap in the cave directly above.

Then, everything returned to darkness, to silence.

Everyone was speechless in shock for a while, only Jin Bi's intermittent sobbing sound became louder and louder. I couldn't help but think to myself that just seeing such a horrific sight with my own eyes would be enough to destroy a person's mind, not to mention the fact that Jinbi experienced witnessing her best friend being devoured like this......

It's amazing that she's able to get out of this hellish cave and ask for help from us outside.

"What the hell is this...... Shui Qing's voice sounded slightly distracted, "Can any of you explain what the hell is going on?" ”

"If I'm not mistaken, this cave is supposed to be where the meteorite landed."

Everyone turned their eyes to Zhuo Ying, her expression had returned to her usual depth and determination, but her breathing was slightly rapid because of the shock just now, she lowered her head and closed her eyes, and her chest was a little irregularly undulating.

"You mean, Xiaoli's accident is related to a meteorite?" Mo Yunxia doubted.

"I'm not sure yet, but don't you think it's all too much of a coincidence?" Zhuo Ying raised his head, his sharp gaze exuding a cold aura. "Chu He, do you remember? We had speculated outside that the center of the Deadwood Circle was where the meteorite landed, which is why we chose to pitch our tent on the other side of the Dead Wood Circle, in order to be as close to the center of the Deadwood Circle as possible. ”

Chu He nodded, clenched his chest in silence and gritted his teeth.

"Actually, on the way Jinbi took us here, I was thinking, if it wasn't for the specific and accurate coordinate data, the national expedition team would not have rushed to drill holes in the mountains. It wasn't until I came in and saw everything in front of me that I confirmed my assumptions. Zhuo Ying looked up at the circular gap above the cave, "Many mountains have internal cavities due to the movement of the earth's crust and their own reasons, and it is not surprising that there are breaches on the outside due to natural or man-made factors. But you see, the shape of this cave gap is almost standard circle, and the position is almost straight above. Including the topography, rocky... Don't you think it's all amazing? If it is not an artificial opening of the mountain, then there is only one explanation - this is not a cave at all, but a huge crater where celestial bodies fall on the mountain and are blasted out due to huge energy and impulse! ”

I couldn't help but look around at this strange cave again, and indeed, after Zhuo Ying said this, everything seemed to have a logical explanation. The shape of the cave is abnormally round, and the texture of the rock wall is abnormally smooth, all of which are natural formations of meteorite landing explosions. But at the bottom of the cave is a strange silver-white substance......

"If we're really inside the crater, what about the meteorite?" I stared at the lake in front of me, glowing with an eerie white light, and my heart was full of doubts. "Is it all this strange water...?"

Obviously, this is also a question that everyone □□ on, and even Zhuo Ying pursed her lips in silence.

"Actually, have you ever thought about it..."Chu He suddenly spoke, his voice a little strange hesitant.

"What?"

"Perhaps, it's not water?"
