Chapter 106: Mutation
The closer I got to the giant beast's head, the clearer I saw that it wasn't a prehistoric monster at all, but a dragon head carved out of a huge rock!
I soon discovered that the giant carved dragon head grew on a rock dome, which means that we are now in a huge underwater cave, and a huge stone raised from this dome has been carved into the shape of a dragon head.
Before I could take a closer look, we had swam into the mouth of the giant dragon head statue, and it seemed that I had touched something under my feet, and I subconsciously saw that my foot had stepped on the jaw of the dragon head stone statue, and there was no dragon tongue carved into it, but many steep stone steps that extended upward.
Could it be that this is the dragon's mouth that Luo Guo said? The strange faces chasing after me made me unable to continue thinking, so I could only desperately swim up the stone steps, about ten minutes, suddenly felt that my body sank, and the whole person surfaced at once, and then I don't know who shot a flare, so that I couldn't open my eyes, and then someone pulled me and directly pushed me out of the water.
Since we can fire flares, we must have gone ashore. I was overjoyed, and the moment I opened my eyes, I happened to see dozens of strange pale faces float up, and I screamed in fright and hurriedly fell backwards. Immediately after that, a strange face that rushed the fastest, because he didn't brake the car, suddenly rushed out of the water, and landed at my feet, I screamed and kicked with my feet, but I didn't expect those tentacle-like hairs to twist a little, and they all got out of the strange face, like a loach, and began to climb desperately into the water, and soon they all climbed into the water.
At this time, the figure flickered, the knife swept past the strange face, grabbed a tentacle with his hand, looked at it for a while, and said, "It turned out that this thing was doing the trick." ”
My heart said, what is that? Seeing that everyone else had leaned over, he also stood up to look at the tentacle.
The knife pinched the head of the tentacle and handed it to us, and I saw that the thing seemed to have no head, only an ugly round mouth, and the mouth was full of small suckers, and when the suckers squirmed, they showed a sharp pair of teeth, and it seemed that many of these things were attached to the head of the strange face, so we mistook it for hair.
"What is this? So disgusting! I asked.
Hu Zi said: "I have seen this thing, called the seven cheek eel, it is a kind of fish, it can also be said to be a parasite, it specializes in sucking the blood of aquatic animals, you look at its mouth, as long as it is sucked, you can't get it down, unless you dig the meat down." The larvae of this thing tend to stay in fresh water, mostly in the north, and when I was in the United States, I heard that the Great Lakes of the United States broke into this kind of thing, and almost ate up the fish in the Great Lakes. ”
Looking at the wriggling guy, remembering the scene just now, I still had palpitations, and the knife squeezed hard, flattening the head of the thing and throwing it aside, before I let out a long breath.
At this point, everyone's attention shifted to the strange face. This strange face was no different from what we had seen before, it was very badly rotted, the hair on its head had been stripped off, and there were many blue-black patches on the scalp, which were probably left by the kind of seven gills that were attached to it.
Beneath the strange face was a rotten corpse, also wearing an old diving suit, and we speculated that it was a group of divers who were exploring underwater, and unfortunately ran into an eight-cheeked eel and were destroyed. Looking at the seven cheek eel pinched flat by the knife, it was still writhing and trying to climb back into the water, I didn't expect this thing to be so tenacious. I didn't rate it in addition to the four evils of the dog day, and I was really wronged by it.
Daddy said, "A dead body is nothing to look at, it's important to get down to business." As he spoke, he urged us to hurry up, when the beard waved his hand and said, "Wait." Then he leaned over and rummaged through the corpse's wetsuit.
Ah Jiu hurriedly said: "Damn this is not a zongzi, there is no value on the body, be careful to squeeze out the corpse water." ”
The beard arrived: "Look! Then he rubbed his fingers against the corpse's wetsuit, revealing a nameplate that was full of rust, but you could still see the English letters engraved on the nameplate.
"Damn, what's all the fuss about? It is estimated that the company to which this group of divers belongs. Ah Jiu said and urged the beard to leave quickly.
The beard looked up at me and asked, "Concern, do you remember this abbreviation?" ”
I took a breath and nodded, and said in my heart that I remember the killing, it was the company to which Charried's expedition and Yu Su belonged!
I glanced at my father, and he suddenly realized: "I know why the dragon scale child tiger is in Xiao Su's hands." ”
The beard rummaged for a while, but he didn't find anything else except the nameplate, clapped his hands and stood up, took off the oxygen cylinder and said, "Take it off quickly, it's finally out of the water, don't waste oxygen." ”
Only then did we react and take off the oxygen cylinders one after another, but we didn't feel a lack of oxygen, maybe the place was connected to the outside world, or the place itself stored a lot of oxygen.
By the light of the flares, I looked around and saw that it was a huge natural cave, the size of half a football field. Behind us was a big pool, where we swam up, and it led to the holes. There is a rocky beach under our feet, there are steps extending upwards at the end of the rocky beach, there is a platform on the steps, there is a bronze tripod on the platform, behind the copper tripod, there is a large stone door that is half-covered, in fact, there are two, the other stone door has fallen to one side, the stone door is pitch black behind it, I don't know where it leads.
Luo Guo looked a little excited, and his voice trembled: "It seems that this is the entrance to the ancient tomb of Lushan, and that platform must be a place of sacrifice." ”
Everyone else was a little crying and laughing, they couldn't imagine this toss, and they ran for their lives so far that they found the entrance to the ancient tomb by mistake, I don't know if it was God blessing or the ancestors accumulating virtue. However, I wondered, is it the kind of fate that my father said is pushing us to find the entrance to the ancient tomb? Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
Everyone sorted out their equipment and planned to enter the ancient tomb, but after taking a few steps, they suddenly felt that their legs were as heavy as lead, and they could hardly take a step.
Daddy just let us hold on, this is a normal reaction after diving, and when we get used to gravity, we will be fine.
Lei Zi said: "Uncle Guan, we have been running lifeless in the water for so long, and we can't hold on for a long time." You see that the entrance to this ancient tomb is there, and we can't run, so wouldn't it be better for us to rest, sleep, and recuperate enough energy before going in? ”
As soon as everyone heard that they were sleeping, they couldn't walk anymore, so they suggested resting, and Luo Guo also said: "Yes, Guan Ye, such a big tomb, there will definitely be danger inside, the big guy is almost tossed, I'm afraid I don't have much energy to deal with emergencies." ”
When Dad saw that they were all gone, it was not a way to force them, so he had to nod his head and agree, and immediately assigned the men of the night vigil.
The best physique here is the knife, so he guards the first shift, Ah Jiu took out the kerosene lamp and lit it, everyone roasted around the oil lamp for a while, and when they felt warm, sleepiness came, and they fell asleep with oxygen cylinders on their pillows.
I was very tired, but I didn't sleep well, lying on the rocky beach uncomfortably, and on the other hand, I always had nightmares, always feeling that the pale face and the disgusting octochco-cheeked eel were dragging me underwater. I don't know how long it has been, but no one has called me for a change of guard, and the camp seems to be very quiet in a trance, and I can't even hear snoring.
In my sleep I couldn't help but wonder if I could still hear the thunderous snoring of my beard at first, and it was so annoying that I kicked him twice, but now it was surprisingly silent, and there was no movement. In a trance, I opened my eyes, and it was pitch black.
Why is it so dark? Did the kerosene lamp go out? How did the vigil work? Didn't I open my eyes at all, still dreaming? No, I felt tired, I wasn't dreaming, it was really dark.
By feeling, I touched the miner's lamp next to me, and subconsciously pressed the switch, but it didn't turn on. Damn, I scolded secretly, why is something wrong at this time? What kind of rotten goods did Ah Qiu buy, isn't this a trick? I knocked on the miner's lamp and pressed the switch again, but it still didn't light up, so I had to touch the watch, this kind of outdoor watch has fluorescent lights, I pressed the button, and the strange thing is that the watch didn't light up either.
What's going on? Could it be that the watch is dead? Thinking about it, I took out the lighter and hit it a few times, but I couldn't see any light at all, but I could clearly feel the heat emitted by the lighter, and I stared hard, but I couldn't see any fire, and it was still pitch black in front of me.
At this time, I still thought in my heart that the lighting tool was broken, and I tried to open my eyes to see, and shouted: "Daddy? Leizi? Beard? Penknife? After a long time when no one responded, I got a little impatient and shouted, "Now whose turn is it to keep vigil?" Why the fuck don't you turn on the lights? ”
The sound reverberated back and forth in this empty cavern, and it seemed a little strange. I subconsciously kicked in the direction of my beard: "Don't sleep with your mother, give me your miner's lamp." "I got a little agitated, but I didn't get anything.
All of a sudden, my heart was shocked, my heart began to beat faster, I hit the lighter again, and touched the flame of the lighter with my other hand by feeling, so hot that I withdrew my hand, and the lighter fell off at once. No, I have a chill in my heart, it's not that there is no light, it's that I can't see, I'm blind!
No, I can't! I just can't accept the idea, I'm definitely dreaming. But I wouldn't be burned by a firebolt in my dreams, which means I'm really blind!
No, it can't be, I shouted their names and began to grope around the ground, my voice almost out of tune. I can't accept it, I can't accept my blindness, it came so suddenly! What's more, this is in the ancient tomb, and what's worse is that I can't even feel the existence of other people, as if I am a blind man abandoned in an illusory world!
My yelling had turned into yelling, and I was frantically groping around, trying to make as much noise as possible, but there was still no response. A chill spread all over my body, and I almost felt suffocated, so helpless and crazy!
Touching and touching, I suddenly touched a wet face, my heart was happy, and I immediately wanted to wake him up, but when I thought about it, why was this face so cold, not angry at all, and then I remembered the dead body, and immediately fell backwards, kicked my legs around, and almost vomited blood.
In a panic, I suddenly heard some movement, and I hurriedly calmed down and listened carefully, and found that the sound came from the direction of the pool, which was the sound of rushing water. The voice was soft, as if a woman was taking a bath in a bath, gently holding up the water and splashing it on herself.
What the hell is going on? Could it be that these bastards are bathing in the water? (I was really panicked at the time, and I didn't expect to scold my dad too.) )
No, you can hear me yelling when you take a shower! It's broken, isn't it daddy in the water, it's something else? Thinking of this, I hurriedly retreated, but suddenly was hugged by others from behind, I was full of excitement, just about to scream, and suddenly was covered by that person's mouth, and then I felt that he seemed to be holding an oxygen mask to my mouth, lying in my ear and whispering: "Xiao Guan Ye, it's me, don't make a sound." ”
It's the sound of a knife! I was overjoyed in my heart, tears were about to fall out, and then I was furious, is this person fucking stupid? Why don't you even fart when you see me frantically looking for them? Immediately, I wanted to scold, but suddenly I heard a commotion in the water, and the movement was even louder.
"Run!" After the knife finished speaking, I pulled up and ran, I didn't react to what was going on, and I was stumbled by him all of a sudden, but this guy didn't mean to stop at all, I had to step desperately, and at the same time I heard the sound of water behind me exploding, as if something was rushing out, and the water splashed on my back.
I couldn't see the road, I was almost half-dragged by the knife and ran out for a long distance, and then I felt tripped over something, and fell out hard, and hurriedly supported it with my hand, but unfortunately I ran too hard, and I still hit my head, and suddenly I was dizzy, and then I heard the knife "tsk", and quickly carried me up and continued to run, I could feel the terrain rising, we might be running up the steps, and then there was a sound of water exploding behind me, but I really couldn't see what it was.
