Chapter 32: Puddles

I can't forget what I saw, this is the third time I've seen this scene, and I can't believe my eyes. I don't know if it's my reason, or if these ancient tombs themselves are related, but here you can see a scene in the sea of ghosts.

The water in the puddle is very clear, and the flashlight shines into it, and it can shine directly to the bottom of the water, but the light that comes back is extremely cold. There must be at least a dozen green and ghostly spirit corpses in the water, just like the spirit corpses in the ghost sea, their bodies are wrapped in a kind of green cloth, although some of them have been worn out, but the area is not large, and it is impossible to see whether there are scales like the ghost sea on the body of the spirit corpse.

As soon as the flashlight shone on the corpse, the clear and transparent water immediately turned into a sea of green, and as long as you looked at it, you would have a chilling feeling, and goosebumps all over your body fell involuntarily.

I can only feel a little fear, but I am not afraid of these things in my heart, after all, this is the third time I have seen a spirit corpse. The fearful cells in the body have adapted to this scene, but these spirit corpses are a little different in form from those of the Ghost Sea.

The corpse was not at the very bottom of the puddle, nor did it float above the water, but stayed in the middle of the water level. Some are standing with their heads up in the water, some are lying on their stomachs with their faces up or their backs up, there is no neatness here in the sea of ghosts, and more than a dozen spirit corpses look very chaotic.

It was not so much a puddle as a large well, fifteen or sixteen meters deep, but the water was so clear that it looked like it was two or three meters deep. There is no feeling of deep water. Although the mouth of the pit is small, the bottom of the water is very large, the bottom of the water is square, a bit of a round place, standing on the gravel by the puddle and looking down, there is a feeling of standing on the water.

I was engrossed in looking at the corpse in the water, and I don't know who threw a stone into the water, and the splash splashed all over my face, and I hurriedly wiped it with my hand, and at the moment when I wiped my face, the old prostitute screamed: "Damn it, it's alive." ”

I looked up at the old prostitute, he was pointing to the water, and his footsteps were retreating, not only he was retreating, but even Meng Xinrui on the side also took two steps back. I looked down at the bottom of the water, and saw that the corpse in the water was swimming in one direction, and I immediately noticed that the corpse was moving again, it turned out to be a stone that someone had just dropped, and a corpse was hitting the edge of the puddle.

Tianxiang grabbed a handful of gravel in his hand and said, "It's okay, they can't come up, I just want to try their effect." After saying that, he lifted the stone in his hand into the water.

After he lifted the stones, we all focused our eyes on the water, only to see that the corpses in the water hit all the stones to the edge of the puddle very quickly. The corpse's move made all of us feel strange, and the old prostitute and Tianxiang were discussing why this could be the case.

I didn't participate in their discussion, but concentrated on watching the bottom of the water with a flashlight with the little wolf. I picked up another handful of stones, and threw them down in several places, again as before, many of them were knocked to the side. I was about to raise another handful of stones, but the little wolf stopped me and said, "No, the reason has been found, you look carefully at the center of the water." ”

According to what the little wolf said, I carefully shone a flashlight in the center of the water, and I didn't see anything wrong. But when I saw the stone in my hand, I immediately understood what the little wolf meant. These corpses are in the middle of the protective underwater bottom, only there are no stones in the middle, and the rest of the place is covered with rubble.

I was puzzled and asked, "What does this mean, do you understand?" ”

The little wolf shook his head at me, and instead of speaking, he crouched there and continued to look into the water. The old prostitute and Tianxiang heard the conversation between me and the little wolf, and they both came over to ask the little wolf what he had found, but I stopped him and signaled him not to disturb his thinking.

After waiting for more than 10 minutes, the little wolf did not get up to speak, and his eyes were still staring intently at the middle of the water. The old prostitute was anxious to wait, and said to the little wolf: "Zhanzhao, can you do it?" Does it take so long, there is this time when the children are all born. ”

The little wolf stood up, looked around first, then at us, and said, "There must be a door in the middle of the water, leading directly to the bottom of the water, but it is difficult to see what material it is." ”

"My god, it depends on what kind of material it is, it's not easy, I can handle this." After the old prostitute finished speaking, she took down the Type 95 automatic rifle she was carrying on her back, and said in her mouth: "I haven't used such an advanced guy, try it first." ”

Almost as soon as he heard the gunshot, his eyes saw the bullet fly into the water, only to see that when the bullet hit the bottom of the water, it refracted and flew directly into the rubble on the side. Although it did not damage the middle of the water, it hit the dirt on the bottom of the water.

The old prostitute glanced at the water and shouted: "It's bronze, it should be very thick." ”

"How do you know the way?" Because I only saw the dirt floating up, I asked the old prostitute in confusion.

"My god, it seems that you should have learned a lot, see the dirt underneath, if it is a stone underneath, it will never produce so much dirt, only metals such as bronze, after being hit by a bullet, will produce a shock, and shake up the dirt around it."

After listening to the old prostitute's explanation, I understood how he judged, it really can't be dissatisfied, it seems that the gap between me and him and the little wolf, not only in terms of technique, but also in judgment, there is still a big gap, this may be the reason why the senior brother wants to arrange for them to help me.

Thinking that the senior brother was a little worried again, he hurriedly asked the little wolf: "I already know what is under the water, what should we do now?" Do you want to go smaller, or go back the way you came. ”

Before the little wolf could answer me, Meng Xinrui suddenly shouted, "Look what's going on in the water?" ”

Everyone focused their eyes on the water, which was clear and transparent just a moment ago, but now it has changed color, turning into a turbid light gray. The color in the water became more and more intense, and in just a few seconds, it turned black and gray. Visibility was getting lower and lower, and soon the bottom of the water was no longer visible, and gradually the faint green light of the corpse disappeared into the black water.

Almost at the same time, we both leaned back, not knowing what was going on in the water, and I took the gun off my back and held it in my hand to the puddle. The whole space was instantly quiet, no one spoke, there was no communication, they all stared directly into the water.

I thought something would appear in the water, but after waiting for a few minutes, the surface of the water was still the usual silence, there were no waves at all, and it didn't look like something was in the water.

Just as we let our guard down and leaned into the water, a strange sound came, which was not far away and not close, and it felt like there were such sounds all around.

The sound of rubbing stones everywhere in my ears is not at all audible from which specific direction it comes from, but it feels like the whole puddle is ringing around it, and the echo is accompanied by the real sound, and the root can't tell whether it is up or down or left or right, in short, there is no place where there is no sound around the entire puddle space.

Then a slight wave began to appear on the surface of the water, but the wave did not spread outward from the water, but spread out from the periphery of the puddle into the water, forming an impact in the middle of the water, and the slight wave crashed into a small wave.

"Oh my god, down there." The old prostitute shouted.

I immediately turned my head to the old prostitute, who was hiding away from where he was standing, and saw that the gravel was slowly arching where he had just stood. Then there was a commotion of all the people, and there were many small bags arching out of the rubble around the puddle, like small mounds of earth.

"Xiao Qi, what the hell do you want? Come here. ”

If it hadn't been for the old prostitute calling me, I wouldn't have noticed that they had run to the cave, and I was still standing at the very back of the puddle, although there were no arched bags around me, but in the direction of the cave, less than 10 meters away, there were arched bags in the rubble.

"What's going on, do you know what's going on?" I didn't dare to rush over from the small bag, after all, I didn't know what would happen like this.

None of them answered my question, but stared at me, which made me extremely unsettling because I realized that they were not looking at me, but seemed to be looking behind me. I thought, "Damn, don't scare me, it's probably something behind me."

I was about to turn around to look, but suddenly, I felt something hit my leg, and I looked down and was startled, and I was surprised that my left leg was entangled in a kelp-like plant at some point. I was about to bend down and pull with my hands, but I was stopped by the little wolf standing on the other side of the cave.

"Don't move, don't touch it." The little wolf shouted at me.

Hearing the wolf's shout, I didn't touch the thing wrapped around my legs, and always kept my original standing position. Although I don't know what the little wolf has found, it is definitely not a wise choice for me to stand here so stupidly now. After all, I don't know what the road is wrapped around my legs, and if it's just ordinary seaweed creatures, I'm not afraid, but this damn place doesn't look like a place where such creatures should be.

Then the water in the puddle grew darker and darker, and the waves grew bigger, and the same thing appeared under my feet in many small bags of gravel. This time, I saw clearly, and what appeared in the gravel in front of me was something exactly the same as kelp, but the color was different, this thing was very black, it looked much thicker than kelp, and each one was more than a knot wide.

This thing doesn't have forks, it's all whole, and it should look very strong. Each one that emerged from the rubble was lying flat on the ground, not looking intimidating, but very gentle.

I looked in the direction they were and asked, "What is this?" What should I do now? ”

"Xiao Qi, don't move yet, this is called a bundle of fairy grass, and you specialize in catching living things."
