When the smoke swallowed everything, we finally no longer had the ugly cry of the mandrill in our ears, and Chen Hu was lying on a pile of rocks, constantly shouting the name of the little warrior, but unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried to shout, he couldn't get back that young life.

The battle came to an abrupt end, but the test of life and death that awaited us was not over, I tapped the manpower, and found that in the melee just now, we had lost half of the manpower, Lao Ma, and the few little soldiers who desperately resisted at the forefront did not survive in the end, only me, An Zanji, Zhang Qiang and Chen Hu, and the five small soldiers led by Chen Hu, the combat personnel were reduced by half.

Chen Hu couldn't stop the bitterness, he kept sitting on the ground and weeping, he was used to seeing life and death, An Zanji was indifferent to this, but I really couldn't bear to see this tragic scene, so I took the initiative to walk to Chen Hu's side, patted him on the shoulder, and asked him how he was, can he still hold on?

Chen Hu pushed my hand away with a numb expression, and said Don't worry, even if you die, I will still be alive. I can only smile bitterly, maybe Chen Hu is blaming me, but what is to blame me, I'm afraid even he can't tell, this is just an emotion, there is no reason and reason at all, seeing that his face is quite normal, I am finally relieved, and I look at the underground cave again, but the more I look at it, the more frightened I become.

After such a fierce battle, we finally came down to an open place, there was a cool wind blowing in the darkness, and the sound of rushing water, which should be a rushing underground river, I don't know if it is deep or not, but it should be close to us.

I walked up to Anzanji and asked him why he didn't go any further, and Anzanji sighed and looked back to ask if I could still hear what had happened at the edge of the waterhole.

Naturally, I haven't forgotten, in fact, such a terrible thing is not something that can be forgotten if you want to, the underwater monster makes me still have palpitations when I think about it, and then look at Anzanji's expression, I suddenly understand what he is thinking.

It's possible that this underground river has figured it out, but maybe the huge octopus monster in the water is also waiting for us.

I said, "Now that the back road has been blocked, if we remove these stones, I think the mandrill will come back again, even if we have been trapped in this hellish place, and we are not going anywhere, I am afraid that the mandrill will not let us go easily, their claws are very sharp, and they are the best to use to cut stones, and this cave may not last long." ”

Zhang Qiang added, "The problem is not only that, the food and water we brought are not enough, at most for four or five days, I am afraid that everyone will be hungry and unbearable, and then there will be only a dead end in the face of these monsters." ”

I didn't expect the situation to develop so badly, Zhang Qiang and I were a little frustrated, An Zanji had nothing on the surface, but the flickering look in his eyes betrayed the helplessness in his heart, and in the end he could only sigh, pointed to the waterway behind him and said, "Let's go, go down and take a look, maybe there will be a way out in the water, I hope that the octopus monster will not appear so quickly." ”

I asked An Zanji and Zhang Qiang to wait first, and then ran back to the place where Chen Hu was resting, and told him the plan, Chen Hu tightened his throat and asked what we were going to do? I said that the matter is obvious, we have underestimated the combat ability of these mandrills, and even more underestimated the mysterious consciousness in this cave, and there is no chance of winning if we continue to stalemate, it is better to find a way out by escaping from the water, and make plans in the future.

"You want me to give up and run away with you?" Chen Hu's eyes were red all of a sudden, and he said in a tone that wanted to tear me alive.

I smiled bitterly, "If you think these two are too ugly, I can put it another way, it's called strategic transfer, Chen Hu, I know what you're thinking in your heart, so many brothers have died, and now you are talking about running away, you must be unwilling, you feel very aggrieved, right, you want to stay, fight these monsters to the end, fight to the death, your courage makes me admire, but this kind of behavior is stupid!" ”

"You ......" Chen Hu was like an angry leopard, staring at me with bloodshot eyes.

I met his gaze very calmly, and said slowly, "Think about the remaining brothers around you, they are not very old, who doesn't have a family, if you fight out here, you will be able to explain to the organization?" ”

Chen Hu originally looked at me with an angry expression, but when he heard these words, he had to force himself to calm down, took a hard puff of his cigarette, and then turned around and looked around at the few remaining little soldiers behind him.

These are a few young and immature faces, the oldest is in his early twenties, the youngest is only eighteen or nine years old, their magnificent life has just begun, if all of them are spelled here, wouldn't it be a pity?

At this time, the crowd was silent, and the young faces were filled with all kinds of emotions, including unyielding, angry, frightened and afraid, life and death were an eternal multiple-choice question, and now the answer to this multiple-choice question was in the hands of Chen Hu, and any of his decisions might involve the life and death of these little warriors.

One thing I have to mention is that even in the face of such a dangerous and complicated situation, these little soldiers were not frightened to lose their minds and break away from the discipline of the team.

I looked at Chen Hu quietly, Chen Hu was also looking at me, my eyes met, I could understand the complexity and entanglement in his heart, and after a stalemate for almost a minute, Chen Hu lowered his head, lowered his head and said silently, "Okay, let's go, let's evacuate this ghost place first and make plans." ”

I finally breathed a sigh of relief, reached out and pulled him up, and limped towards the underpass, someone turned on the searchlight, and slowly walked down the sound of the water, and a slightly fishy wind drifted in front of me, and my nervous mood finally felt better.

If there is wind, it means that the air is circulating, that is to say, this underground river can indeed lead to the outside, as for how deep and expensive the river is, it is another problem that needs to be considered.

After walking more than 20 meters, Anzanji suddenly stopped leaving, everyone raised their eyes, and saw a spacious underground dark river in front of them, the river surface was about seven or eight meters wide, and there were two or three meters of shallows by the river, all of which were paved with goose warm stones, which were not as cold as imagined, but exuded a gentle warm current.

Zhang Qiang probed his head and looked at it, and then said Why is this dark river warm, could it be that there is magma under our feet? I said nonsense, we walked down a few tens of meters in total, how could we reach the center of the earth so quickly, after saying that, I continued to observe the environment, there was a gentle area of dozens of squares on the edge of the riverbed, and the flashlight shone past, sparkling, like the twinkling stars in the sky.

On the other side of the river, there are narrow passages lined with strange rocks, some of which are blocked by stone walls, and more of them are interlaced with canine teeth, hidden by hideous stone beds, and it is impossible to see where they can lead, and there are many stalactites on the other side of the river, although the corridor is very deep, but that is not our primary goal.

The first thing that needs to be checked is this dark river, we must find out whether there is any danger under this river beach, if there are still giant monsters like last time, then we must be careful, Zhang Qiang picked up a few more stones, and continued to throw them into the dark river, the sound of water splashing sounded one after another, making people feel depressed, I said Lao Zhang, you have long passed the age of playing in the water, why do you keep throwing stones into the river?
