Chapter 312: Strange Cave
At the very top of the cavern, there was originally a ball-shaped luminous device that emitted a hazy mist.
It's just that after my brain was taken over by an alien, the alien once emitted some kind of energy that I couldn't understand, extinguishing all the glowing devices everywhere in the cave.
It's just going to go out, and the glowing devices are supposed to be on top of the cave.
But now as far as I can see, there is nothing at the top of the cave. I don't know if those light-emitting devices are transparent, or if they are invisible.
But I don't have time to pay attention to this now, and after glancing at the top of the cave, I took back my flashlight and searched the cave on all sides like Meng Xiang, Gao Lingkai and others.
The stone chamber was only about twenty square meters, and soon, several pillars of light from flashlights were projected together towards a black doorway on the left.
Under the command of Special Police Officer Huang, two special police officers opened the way in front, Meng Xiang and Gao Lingkai and I walked in the middle, and Special Police Officer Huang personally escorted behind, and a group of six people walked into the doorway.
There was not another stone chamber in the doorway, but it was as long and narrow as a walkway.
And instead of going straight ahead, the walkway forms an arc, as if it were built along the mountain.
About 20 meters forward, two forks in the road appeared in front of me.
If you shine a flashlight on each of the two forks, you can see the steps going down on both sides.
"Looks like we'll have to go our separate ways!" Huang said.
I didn't speak, because I felt that the road to the right was gloomy, and the road to the left felt nothing.
So I pointed to the road on the right: "You should go down this road!" ”
"Why are you so sure?" Special Police Officer Huang asked immediately.
"Because I don't feel the danger on the left road." I replied.
Several people looked at each other.
One SWAT couldn't help but mutter, "Why do you want to go to a dangerous place instead?" ”
I didn't answer.
Meng Xiang understood first, and opened his mouth to explain for me: "We are looking for a secret cave in this big cave, it must be hidden in the most dangerous place. ”
"So what do we do now?" Special Police Officer Huang spoke again, "The black light is blind, if the mile is full of organs, if we go in, won't we be sent to death?" ”
I think I'll have to go in even if I'm going to die. It's just that before we find the secret hole, we still have to save our lives and not die, otherwise we will die worthless.
So I thought about it for a while, and then I asked Special Police Officer Huang: "Do you have any small incendiary bombs that don't cause violent explosions?" ”
The reason why I emphasize that there will be no violent explosion is that we are afraid that if the destructive force of the explosion shakes the cave, we will be killing ourselves.
Fortunately, Special Police Officer Huang quickly nodded: "Yes!" It will only burn, not explode! ”
"Then throw one down the road to the right!" I say.
Knowing what I meant, SWAT Huang immediately pulled out an incendiary bomb, pulled out the safe, and threw it into the right passage.
I only heard the sound of "plop", and the incendiary bomb first hit the stone wall in front of it, and then fell to the ground with a "bang".
Then there was a "whoosh" sound, and the incendiary bomb burned violently, and what we saw in front of us turned out to be a sloping downward passage.
The incendiary bomb rolled down the sloping ground, emitting a strong light as it gurgled and rolled down.
After about 20 meters of rolling, because of the angle, we could no longer see the incendiary bomb itself, only the light continued to move forward.
But in a flash, the light suddenly dimmed. It didn't look like the incendiary bomb had burned out, though, because there was still a faint light coming up.
It's just that kind of flickering light, and in just a moment, it completely disappears.
"Did the incendiary bombs burn out?" I asked Special Police Officer Huang.
"Probably not!" SWAT Huang shook his head, "It feels like there's a deep pit ahead, and the incendiary bomb suddenly fell into the pit." ”
In fact, I feel that way too. However, the incendiary bomb rolled all the way and didn't trigger any traps or anything like that, so I said, "It doesn't seem like there are any particularly powerful traps, but you should be careful about your step!" ”
As I spoke, I took the lead into the downward passage on the right.
Meng Xiang followed me closely, and the others followed.
I held a flashlight in my hand and shone it all the way forward, and I was even more cautious when I reached about 20 meters.
But even if I was extra careful, a chill in my face still made me stop urgently.
In the light of my flashlight, the passage still stretched forward, and there was no end in sight. But beneath my feet, there was a black gap.
The width of the gap is exactly the same as that of the passage, and because of the darkness, the black color of the gap is the same as the color of the passage on the top, bottom, and left.
If it weren't for the fact that I had dropped an incendiary bomb before, and even more so that I had a particularly keen sense of danger, I would have only taken another half step forward, and I would have fallen through the gap by now, not knowing whether I would be alive or dead.
"What's wrong?" Meng Xiang asked behind me.
"There's a deep hole here, wait for me to see how deep it is!" I replied.
I turned the light of the flashlight and cast it on the gap.
But I saw that the gap was about two meters long, and I could easily jump over it.
However, I felt that the so-called secret hole was under this gap, so I projected the light of the flashlight along the gap.
It's deep! The light of the flashlight can only faintly see the bottom, and it is at least thirty or fifty meters by sight.
And if you fall from this height, you will surely die.
"What is the maximum length of rope you carry?" I asked.
"It's more than twenty meters." Huang said.
"Then we'll have to pick them up!" I say.
"If you want to go down, you have to leave someone up there!" Huang said.
"I'll go down first to see the situation, and you can arrange to keep someone on top!" I say.
Special police officer Huang hurriedly asked the two special police officers to take out the ropes, and the two were connected together.
They were carrying that kind of special rope, which was very thin, but very strong.
However, because there was no place to tie the rope above, a few SWAT officers had to clamp the rope with a special tool, and then slowly let me down.
The two ropes add up to nearly fifty meters, but when my feet touch the ground, the ropes are almost at the end.
"Colliers, is there any danger down there?" Meng Xiang shouted from above.
"No danger has been found yet!" I replied.
I shone my flashlight around, and I couldn't help but cry out in my heart, and I found that the place where I was standing was in an open space of about twenty square meters.
The clearing was in the shape of a perfect circle, and the surrounding stone walls were smooth and flat, without the slightest trace of carving. But on the sleek stone wall, one by one, there were all holes.
The shape of the openings is exactly the same, both are more than one meter wide and more than two meters high. I counted ten holes.
Then shine a flashlight into the holes, each hole is unfathomable.
And when I looked around, Meng Xiang and Gao Lingkai came down in turn, and then Huang Special Police also came down.
The remaining two SWAT officers remained on top.
"It's so cold down here! Colliers, how can there be so many caves? Can you still feel which cave to go to? Gao Lingkai asked me.
I have a hard time answering.
In fact, I've been holding my breath for a long time, but it's already very cold down there, and I don't have a very good sense of perception to detect that the cave is even colder.
I remembered that my mother-in-law used to say that I had the ability to "go out of my body", and she did push me lightly to push my "soul" out of my body.
But unfortunately I didn't have time to ask her how I could get my "soul" free from my body, otherwise I would have been able to find out the secret point with ease if I had used this method now.
"The four of us, even if we go separately, we can't explore so many holes at the same time!" Special police officer Huang said in frustration.
I also frowned, and I was struggling with no solution, when I vaguely remembered that in this cave, after the alien monster had taken over its brain, it had used my brain to send a command for two wild men to hide its body in the secret cave.
And guard the secret hole, and do not let any living creature approach.
Savages need to eat, and if they are still guarding here, then as long as we get the smell of food, we may be able to lure them out.
I hurriedly asked Meng Xiang if there was any ham and bacon or anything like that, Meng Xiang didn't know what I was going to do, but she didn't ask much, but quickly found a ham from her backpack.
I tore open the ham package, and then asked the special police officer Huang to find the remaining torch and light it, and let Gao Lingkai take it and roast the ham with fire.
"What is this trying to do?" Special Police Officer Huang couldn't help but ask.
Of course, I couldn't tell him the truth, so I could only say casually: "There used to be a lot of wild people here, and I think maybe there will be wild people guarding that secret room." ”
"So you want to use the smell of roasted ham to lure the wild man out, so we can know which hole to go to?" Meng Xiang suddenly understood.
"Yes!" I said yes, pulling out my pistol and keeping my hands on guard.
Special Police Officer Huang and Meng Xiang also took out their pistols, and the three of us each faced one direction, so that no matter which hole the savage came out of, one person would definitely see it at a glance.
But before we could see the wild man appear, suddenly, there was an exclamation from above.
"Little Joe, what's wrong? What's going on up there? Startled, Special Police Officer Huang hurriedly raised his head and asked loudly.
But the two SWAT officers on the top didn't bother to answer him, and I heard the gunshots from above, and we were in a hurry, and we had no way of knowing what was going on up there.
And the sound of gunfire mixed with the screams of the two special police officers reverberated between the cave walls, although not particularly loud, but it was really numbing.
"Little Joe, less, what's wrong?" Special Police Officer Huang shouted again.
We didn't want his scream to fall, so we heard the scream of "Wow Wow", accompanied by the sound of "Da Da" submachine gun falling rapidly.
