Chapter 983: The Scorching Sun and the Ice Cave
Chu Ge felt that he was a roast duck in the oven, not to mention that the sweat and blood were already boiling, and even the fat had to be roasted out of the thirty-six thousand pores, sizzling.
His water shortage has exceeded the limit by 20%, which has seriously affected his physical function and combat effectiveness, and even his vision has gradually blurred.
"How can it be so hot?"
All the trees around have been withered by the sun, and many big trees have turned into bright torches, without even the slightest shade, Chu Ge squinted his eyes, looked at the burning sky, and said with palpitations.
"The midsummer of the world in the cave is so harsh, ordinary people come in and stay for a few minutes, I'm afraid they will be scorched."
Li Jianguo and the others were also burned, their lips were cracked, covered with large and small wounds, but no blood flowed out - every drop of their blood was dried, this picture was cruel and weird.
After a few more hours of exposure like this, there was no need for the Pioneer and other peerless murderers of the Celestial Organization to take action, they would die of dehydration.
And Chu Ge looked far away and found that not to mention the flood, even several rivers near and far were dried up and evaporated, and there was no trickle left, leaving only criss-crossing and dry rivers.
"What should I do?"
Chu Ge turned back to look for the black lake they had drilled out, and found that there was nothing in the direction of his memoryβhe didn't know whether the black lake connected to the outside world was swept away by the flood just now, or whether it was dried by the scorching sun at the moment.
"It's normal for the passage connecting to the outside world to disappear from time to time, and it won't be long before it appears in a random place."
Li Jianguo and the others said without raising their heads.
Like hounds, they raised their noses and sniffed all over the place.
"Then what are we going to do, 'it won't be long', we're all going to dry out!"
Chu Ge looked at the efforts of Li Jianguo and the others, and asked curiously, "What are you doing?" β
"Found it, this is it."
Li Jianguo pointed to a smoking ground and said, "Come, Brother Chu Ge, help me and attack here fiercely!" β
Chu Ge felt strange in his heart, but with his trust in Li Jianguo, he still launched the strongest attack of the three with him and the "Mammoth" Meng Ma, blasting towards the ground.
It was like three cannons firing at the same time, and suddenly blasting a big hole in the ground.
The earth caved in, and a winding cave appeared behind the hole, and I don't know where it leads.
In the depths of the cave, there was a cold and biting yin wind, and it also carried moist moisture, which made Chu Ge refresh, and greedily licked the sweet moisture on his lips.
"It's ......"
Chu Ge looked at Li Jianguo with surprise and joy.
"Inside this floating mountain, there is a spiritual vein of water or even ice."
Li Jianguo said with a smile, "So, the caves around the spiritual veins are all cold, and they are natural summer resorts, which are enough to help us carry such a scorching sun, come on, get in and avoid it!" β
The six of them hurriedly drilled into the interior of the floating mountain, found some large rocks and crushed soil, and re-blocked the entrance to the cave, leaving only a few observation holes.
Outside the cave, there are two worlds, hell and heaven.
One flame is steaming, the other is cool and quiet.
The six of them collapsed on the cave wall with relief, and even greedily licked the condensed water droplets on the cave wall, and seven or eight drops of water fell into their stomachs before they breathed a sigh of relief and regained their vitality.
There were many small beasts such as snakes, insects, rats, ants, and hares, which were also hidden in the cold caves, and the six of them did not bother to drive them away, but they lived in harmony with each other.
"I don't know how Lao Lan's advance team is doing now."
Li Jianguo sighed, "I'm just afraid that there will be more luck and less luck." β
Chu Ge knew that the one who had gone deeper into the cave world to fight the front station one step ahead of them was the military special forces led by a major general named "Lan Xiaolong".
This unit, codenamed "Hidden Dragon", was previously not well-known in the outside world.
Because they never carry out a stubborn attack mission, but they specialize in excavating prehistoric ruins all over the world, exploring mysterious phenomena, and delving into all kinds of incredible alien dimensions.
It can be said that the "Hidden Dragon Force" has extremely rich experience in exploring unknown areas.
Including the captain Lan Xiaolong, in the Hidden Dragon Army, there are also a large number of strong people whose strength has reached the level of "Deep Awakened" or even "Final Awakened".
But now, in the face of so many natural disasters one after another, Li Jianguo and others are not sure.
"If only the 'pioneers' gang of dog mongrels were sunburned to death!"
"Mammoth" Mammoth spat and said angrily.
The crowd laughed, knowing of course that it was impossible.
Because of the drastic changes in extreme weather conditions, it is very likely that the pioneer and others went deep into the "hole within a hole" and triggered some kind of prohibition before activation.
In other words, when the flood and the scorching sun are raging, they are already in a hole within a hole, and they really can't get their hopes up too much if they will not be affected by extreme weather.
Of course, it is not impossible that there will be other prohibitions in the cave within the cave to kill these dog mongrels at once.
It's just that they can't pin all their hopes on the ancient people hundreds of millions of years ago.
What's more, whether the primeval people were friends or foes, hopes or threats, is unknown.
Everyone is just having fun in the bitterness and saying this casually.
Before the heat invaded the cave, they still had to seize the time to replenish water and energy, and prepare to solve the problem with their own hands.
"We have all the drinking water we have brought, and I don't know how long the scorching sun will last outside, and I don't know if it will rain right away, even if the 'summer' here ends soon, and even if it rains, I don't know if it will rain again, and we may not have the opportunity to re-water in the torrential rain and rapids."
Yun Qianhe said, "Although the water system spiritual vein cannot be directly drunk, but on the cave wall near the core of the spiritual vein, there should be a large amount of water droplets, and even some pools can be found in low-lying places, after filtration, they are all pure natural drinking water, and they are also full of spiritual power, it is out-and-out spiritual water, a drop is worth a bottle of ordinary drinking water, we should go to fill some in case of emergency." β
Yun Qianhe is old, and everyone agrees with him.
Chu Ge, Li Jianguo, and Meng Ma unloaded several huge water storage bladders from the equipment they were carrying, and groped their way to the core of the floating mountain.
The more you crawl towards the core of the floating mountain, the more you can see a fairytale-like scenery of another world.
This is a glittering crystal palace, and the light of the searchlight on their heads is refracted by the crystal clear rock wall, turning into a rainbow of thousands of ways.
The rainbow convergence, is a mouthful of lovely puddles, gathered in it does not seem to be water, but the purest water element, stretch out the tongue to lick a mouthful, the tongue is suddenly caught by the sweet and sweet meaning, making people like drinking alcohol, fluttering like fairy.
After experiencing the high heat and lack of water just now, this crystal world full of small puddles is not stingy with the most perfect paradise.
Chu Ge and the three of them cheered, hurriedly rushed to the puddle, carefully sucking every drop of water into the water reservoir.
Even the water droplets hanging on the walls of the crystal cave, they did not let go, even if there was a trace of wetness hidden in the cracks of the stone, they had to lick it clean.
The three of them got carried away and unconsciously immersed in it, forgetting the passage of time.
Suddenly, there was a "rustle" sound in their communication channels.
The interference of the world in the cave is extremely strong, and this is the interior of the floating mountain, the cave is bent and narrow, rugged and narrow, and it is extremely difficult to transmit wireless signals.
Yes, it took them a while before they realized that in the communication channel, it was the three of Yun Qianhe who were guarding the entrance of the cave, and they were roaring in a hurry.
After a long while, they could tell from the undulating noise that Yun Qianhe and the three of them were saying, "Run!" β
"What do you mean?"
The three of them looked at each other, not understanding.
But the signal interference is too strong, except for the word "run", the explanation of Yun Qianhe's long speech behind it is not clear at all.
"Founding Brother ......"
Chu Ge suddenly sensed that something was wrong, and the extremely dangerous signal flowed back and forth between his central nervous system and nerve endings, making him shudder, "Do you think that there are more crystals around us, and the space we stay in has become smaller?" β
"How...... Yes? β
Li Jianguo's voice became smaller and smaller, and he looked around a little suspicious.
The natural cave they were carrying was originally half the size of a basketball court and surrounded by a flat rock wall as smooth as a mirror.
But now, clusters of huge crystals have grown on the rock wall, which have coalesced layer by layer, gradually swallowing up the space in the cave
It's as if the cave is alive and shrinking its stomach!
