Volume 2 Tales of the Night Chapter 23 Underground Space
Even though his head had been smashed, the ogre's disgusting eyes were still dripping and turning, and his big mouth was opening and closing, making biting motions.
Seeing this scene, the two women in the team felt a little sick to their stomachs, and Donglai also looked disgusted and let go to the side, only Ji Yunfei was angry, raised his big foot and paused hard, and stomped frantically on the head of the ogre, until it was trampled into a ball of flesh!
Bai Ye pulled Ji Yunfei away and said, "Okay, this guy can't recover in a short time, don't waste time, let's go find Xiaoqian." ”
Ji Yunfei gave up and followed everyone to the depths of the mine.
The depths of the mine are already under the Screaming Jungle, and the mineral deposit here seems to be a metal, and on the four walls of the mine, you can often see a kind of metal particles that shimmer with a yellowish light, this metal obviously does not come from the earth, but belongs to the special product of the heterotopic plane, although Bai Ye is well-informed, but unfortunately even he has never seen this metal, and he does not know what this metal can be used for.
The cave is extremely deep and vast, and after extending 3 kilometers from the mouth of the cave, a large number of forks and crossings appear, forming a huge labyrinth of artificial excavations. This labyrinth can be completely different from the Meiling Tunnel, there are evil spirits in the tunnel using the ability of ghosts to hit the wall, forcibly distorting human perception, only to form an impassable complex space, after the evil spirits are destroyed, fools can tell which real road is, but here, it is a real complex terrain, even the white night has no good way to quickly explore.
In order to find Chen Qian in time, everyone decided to divide into two groups and search separately. To be on the safe side, Bai Ye divided Donglai, Feng Hua and Ji Yunfei into a group, the three of them have extremely strong protection capabilities, if they encounter an ogre, even if they can't keep up with the speed of the monster, they are enough to protect themselves, while Bai Ye is in a group with Han Xue, the two of them belong to assassin-type warriors, and they are completely worthy of a head-to-head confrontation with a man-eating ghost.
Although the mine is large, the road conditions are also very complicated, but after all, it is only excavated along the natural ore vein, and it is not specially made to confuse people, so getting lost or something will not happen, the two teams spent half an hour, almost the entire mine cave was explored, during which the ogre even recovered once, but was cut off again by the white night, and collapsed to the ground.
The other ogres probably went out hunting, and the second one was not encountered in the whole cave. In the end, the two teams met in a wide passage, but they found no trace of Chen Qian.
Everyone looked at each other, but to no avail, Chen Qian was always in danger, maybe she would be eaten alive by the cannibal in the next moment. Ji Yunfei was anxious but had nothing to do, and suddenly roared like crazy, and punched the ground hard.
Who knew that with a punch, there was a hollow sound on the ground, and then it cracked violently, and collapsed with a bang, and the five evolutionaries were caught off guard, and they all fell in.
The cave is more than six meters high, and Ji Yunfei, as the initiator, has an unstable center of gravity, and his head is down. And Bai Ye quickly grabbed Feng Hua at the moment of falling, and fell gently, Han Xue, as a shadow dancer, was also as light as a swallow, while Donglai Muzhi accurately smashed on Ji Yunfei's body, not injured at all, and I don't know if he did it on purpose.
Ji Yunfei has steel-like armor, of course, he won't be injured, but he fell a little hard, and his mind was a little dizzy for a while, but he immediately got up and impatiently observed this underground cave.
The cave is not as complex as the mine above, with only one passage leading to the depths. The environment here is very cold and damp, the ground and walls are hard rock, and clusters of sharp stalagmites can be seen rising from the ground from time to time.
Walking out of this corridor, a huge underground space appeared in front of you, like a natural hall. The floor of the hall was full of stalagmites, and before everyone could get closer, a weak exclamation suddenly came from the darkness: "Who is there?" Stay back! ”
Ji Yunfei was overjoyed when he heard this, and said loudly: "Xiaoqian, is it you?" ”
There was a cry of surprise and joy from the hall: "Yunfei? Yunfei! Is it really you? ”
Everyone hurriedly rushed over, only to see Chen Qian being tied all over her body, hanging upside down on a cluster of stalagmites, her face was full of scars, blue and purple. Obviously, the cannibals are not very friendly to their prey.
Ji Yunfei hurriedly put her down, helped her sit on a stone platform, and asked softly, "How do you feel?" ”
Chen Qian looked very weak, but she still showed a smile to Ji Yunfei and said, "I'm fine, it's just that I've been beaten a little hard, I can treat myself after a while, it's not just me who has been arrested here, there are several people, save them." ”
In fact, before she could say it, they also found that there were three more people tied up and hung upside down, two men and one woman, all young people. There was a person dressed in the uniform of the army, and it was none other than the missing soldier Liang Yu. Like Chen Qian, they were all beaten hard and have now fallen into a coma. Beside them, there were piles of strangely shaped beast bones, apparently eaten by man-eaters. When the ogre is extremely hungry, he will also go out to catch wild beasts, but no amount of meat eaten by wild beasts can quench their hunger and thirst, and only when they eat people can their pain be slightly reduced.
Bai Ye, Han Xue and Feng Hua rescued the three of them respectively, and Chen Qian also recovered a little energy, so she cleared her voice, and a beam of holy light fell from the sky, enveloping her, and the scars on her body gradually recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Compared with the pastor of Donglai Muzhi, Chen Qian is more like a pastor. It is also the use of the Holy Light, and her Holy Light healing is in line with people's impression of the Holy Light, and although Donglai can use the Holy Light to do many incredible things, it cannot be used for healing.
After healing herself, Chen Qian's spirit was greatly lifted, she waved her hand again, and a few holy lights fell, and the three survivors also performed holy light healing, and the three of them immediately came to their senses, and when they saw the form in front of them, Liang Yu said in surprise: "Captain, it's you!" Those monsters were so fast, I just heard a little movement, and I didn't even see the shadow of the monster, I was caught, I thought I was going to die this time! ”
Bai Ye patted him on the shoulder and said, "As long as I am your captain for one day, each of you is my brother, and I will never give up any brother!" ”
The other man and woman, who had only regained their senses for a long time, suddenly burst into tears, apparently frightened by the ogre.
Bai Ye was annoyed by the crying noise, and said to them coldly: "If you cry again, you will attract cannibals, so I will throw you here to feed them, just to buy us some time!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the two immediately stopped crying, trembling and pleading: "We dare not cry, don't leave us, please." ”
Bai Ye didn't bother with them anymore, turned his head and asked Chen Qian, "How did you get here?" Is this connected to the outside? Or is there some connection to the mine? ”
Chen Qian pointed to the tallest stalagmite in the hall and said, "That's where it came down." ”
Everyone followed Chen Qian's fingers and saw that in the corner of the hall, there was a cluster of stalagmites that went straight to the ceiling, and above the top of the cave above the stalagmite, there was a small fence secret door, which was connected to the top of the cave wall.
Bai Ye jumped up, climbed up along the stalagmites a few times, and pushed the secret door open, and it was indeed connected to a corner of the mine, and the corner was full of abandoned metal ores, which was also the reason why everyone did not find the secret door before. Everyone paid attention to finding Chen Qian, but they didn't expect that there was a hole under the pile of ore.
Bai Ye returned to everyone and told everyone about the situation, and everyone climbed along the stalagmites one by one, back to the mine, only the two survivors were clumsy and couldn't climb up, and in desperation, Bai Ye forcibly endured disgust and lifted them up separately.
Everyone had just returned to the mine, and suddenly there was a roar from the direction of the cave entrance, and the sound was still very far away from here, and it should have been found outside the mine, so the roar was full of anger. Apparently, the cannibals are back in their nests.
The two survivors were immediately frightened, and they also had a headache in the white night, and from the roar, they could hear that there were a lot of ogres, these guys were extremely fast, and they couldn't get rid of them, and they couldn't kill them, it was really a huge trouble.
Bai Ye thought for a while, and then said categorically: "I'll drag them down, you guys think of a way to find the bones of the relatives and friends killed by them as soon as possible, only by dissolving the curse, can you solve this group of monsters." ”
Everyone refused in unison: "Just yourself?" How can this work? ”
Bai Ye said: "Among us, I am the only one who can keep up with the speed of the ogre and resist the attack of the ogre." Don't argue, it's important to find the bones as soon as possible. ”
Chen Qian suddenly asked, "Aren't there a lot of bones in the underground cave just now?" Will it be there? ”
Bai Ye shook his head and said: "I have taken a closer look, it is the bones of some beasts, the bones of no intelligent life, and there is no resentful breath in that space, unfortunately, the thing we are looking for is not there." If I can't find it, I can find another exit, as long as you're gone, those cannibals won't be able to trap me! I'm leaving. ”
After speaking, Bai Ye let out a low roar and whistled away in the direction of the entrance of the mine like a violent wind.
After Bai Ye left, Feng Hua immediately said loudly: "What are you waiting for? Let's hurry up and look separately, pay more attention to the ground and cave walls, and see if there are any traces of excavation and burial! ”
Han Xue looked at the two survivors and frowned, "What about these two guys?" ”
Ji Yunfei said: "Let them follow me and Xiaoqian." They are all ordinary people, don't expect to help anything, just don't add to the chaos. ”
Bai Ye rushed along the passage, and in a few minutes rushed to the tunnel at the entrance of the mine, there were more than a dozen hideous figures rushing towards this side, their speed was so fast that they could not even be seen by the naked eye, and their movements were very strange, similar to Bai Ye, who opened the evil spirit phantom body.
The moment he saw the enemy, Bai Ye had already taken out the Black Hawk sniper crossbow and fired five shots in front of him, but those man-eaters were in this small space, and their huge bodies were as light as swallows, moving and jumping on the cave wall, easily dodging the bursting steel balls, and more than a dozen man-eaters, Bai Ye didn't hit any of them.
However, Bai Ye was not originally trying to hit them, but only heard the sound of booming and booming, and the bursting steel balls burst one after another, blasting the stone chips on the four walls of the mine, and many huge stones rolled down one after another, piling up in the center of the passage, piling up the originally unobstructed road into a mess.
