Chapter 56: Heaven and Earth Disintegrate
I also picked up my gun, and the body of the strange snake was as huge as the giant black ruba snake we had seen before, almost squeezing the narrow narrow path, and I didn't need to take any aim, I just pulled the trigger.
"Da Da Da-"
The bullet hit the strange snake, and the strange snake suddenly splattered black blood, and at the same time, its action was also sluggish.
Seeing this, the old knife laughed: "It seems that this dog's transformation has just been completed, and the body is still thin and tender, and it can't withstand bullets!" ”
But after a while, the old knife's smile froze on his face.
The black blood flowing from the strange snake splashed on the ground, but it writhed strangely, and when we took a closer look, the black blood turned into a small black ruba snake!
The strange snake shook its head, and the wounds on its body had begun to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye, but there was a large group of small black ruba snakes on the ground in an instant.
"Sizzle, sizzle—"
The sharp metal of the snake letter snapped, and the snakes rushed over like a tidal wave.
"See you hell Tenzin Kava! Don't be so evil! The old knife scolded angrily, holding up the gun and aiming at the strange snake again.
I hurriedly grabbed him: "Don't waste bullets, heroes don't suffer immediate losses, it's important to run away first!" ”
Fortunately, the first part of the road turned uphill, and the snakes moved quickly on the flat ground, but it was very difficult to climb the slope, and we saw this and walked forward desperately and quickly, and we simply did not use our legs as legs, so that we were a little more distant from the snakes.
After climbing for a while, the light in front of us gradually dimmed, and when we looked up, we saw that we had unconsciously entered the depths of the semi-solid blue fog, and the solid blue fog around us was stacked like the stone walls of the mountain, and the light in front of us was getting darker and darker, and we had to turn on the flashlight and find that at the end of this secret path was a hole.
Drilling out of the hole, the front is open - the blue semi-solid mist forms a wide cave hall, the floor of the hall is unusually flat, and a closer look reveals that there is a layer of light blue ice on it, and there is a misty mist floating in the whole cave.
Under the illumination of the strong flashlight, the ice on the ground reflects the light upwards, and the semi-solid blue mist surface at the top is again a very soft light blue reflection, and the whole cave is covered with a layer of light blue brilliance, which looks dreamy and blurry, making people feel like they are in a fairyland.
But we didn't have time to enjoy the view, and the "sizzling" viper behind us approached again, and we hurried out of the cave and into the hall.
As we walked in quickly, we observed the situation around us, only to hear the old knife suddenly say, "Aji, there seems to be something under the ice!" ”
The flashlight shone at our feet, and after seeing the strangeness under the ice under our feet, the four of us suddenly gasped in unison.
I saw that under the transparent thin ice, there were many black hollow round tube-like objects, densely packed, like a honeycomb under the ice!
These round tubular objects vary in diameter and size, the largest is five or six meters, the smallest is only more than one meter, like countless blood-sucking black leeches, with their mouthparts wide open and tightly biting under the ice, the number is so large that it makes the scalp tingle!
In addition to being shocked, I suddenly felt that the scene in front of me was somewhat familiar, and after a little recollection, I suddenly remembered when I had seen it: "These black tubes...... I think I saw it in that dream......"
In my first strange dream, I dived into the depths of the Polar Sea, and found some buildings made of huge black stones, hollow and cylindrical, which looked like a large number of huge coelenterates growing in the black background, and it was in these black buildings that I encountered the girl with the exact same tattoo on her back.
Thinking of this, I immediately said, "Look for it, there must be something in these black pipes!" ”
The old knife and I shone a strong flashlight directly against the surface of the ice, and the light penetrated in, and we found something else in the black tube under our feet, which was more than three meters directly under our feet-
It was the body of a humanoid!
The humanoid creature in the black tube curled up into a baby-like shape, resembling a dinosaur covered in a swarthy carapace, with sharp teeth and claws, and a long stout tail, but the structure was closer to that of a human being, and it had a long, oval head around its neck.
The tube seemed to be filled with a strange transparent liquid, and the humanoid's body was immersed in it, floating slightly.
Because the body is so lifelike that it has not shrunk or swelled and decayed, it is impossible to tell whether the humanoid in the tube is dead or asleep.
The old knife looked at it for a while, and suddenly said: "This thing, how can I look more and more like an alien in the movie "Alien"? ”
Hyde said on the side, "Come on, there's one too!" ”
We looked around, and sure enough, there was another humanoid creature in the tube over there, but it was different from the previous "alien", the humanoid creature in this tube had gray-white feathers, its feet were claw-shaped, and its beak was very similar to the bony beak of a bird, and it looked very much like the legendary "Feather Man".
Soon after, we found more humanoids in other black tubes, including humans dressed in ancient costumes, as well as various other strange races, including some humanoids that we had already seen on the murals along the way, such as the lizard-like half-snake people in the snake-transformed state.
However, we did not find the girl with the tattoo on her back in my dream, and the black tubes under the cave were densely packed, and we roughly estimated that there were at least tens of thousands, and looking for something specific in it was tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
On the other hand, even if we were to keep looking, time would not allow for it—we had a slight delay here before the snakes behind us had already caught up with us, and the giant snake was the first to emerge from the hole, hissing with its mouth open, and swooping down on us.
"Quick, go deeper into the cavern!"
The old knife and I shot again, but it only stopped the giant snake from approaching, but the black blood spilled on the ground, and a large group of small black ruba snakes were born, and in the blink of an eye, they crawled all over the ground.
"Boom ......"
Just as the snakes were cornering us and gradually shrinking the encirclement, and the four of us could not avoid it, suddenly, a dull loud noise was heard, and then the whole cavern shook violently.
Several of us suddenly stood unsteadily, and fell to the ice under our feet, and those black ruba snakes were not much better, and rolled in a mess in place, and even the giant monster snake rolled a few times on the ice, and finally could only coil the huge snake body into a ball, and hissed at us with its head raised, but it could not approach us again for the time being.
The old knife lay on the ground, saw the snakes in a mess, and laughed: "Haha, there is no endless road!" These legless things are much worse than we fell! ”
didn't laugh twice, the ground under him shook violently, and the old knife grabbed Hyde, who was rolling to the side, and his face had changed: "Section Chief Shen, didn't you say a tropical storm?" Why is it so powerful? It feels like it's going to be overturned......"
Shen Tangzhi was also hesitating, Hyde hugged one of the arms of the old knife, and said as he crawled over: "The vibration is coming from below, it doesn't seem to be the wind...... Storms, but earthquakes! ”
As soon as I heard Hyde say this, Shen Tangzhi and I were both discolored!
It immediately occurred to us that in the event of an earthquake, the surrounding mountains would inevitably be shaken, and the ice that supported the polar sea would probably shatter.
Once the ice breaks, the entire Polar Sea will collapse with it!
And the fate of us in the middle of it can be imagined......
At this time, the ground shook more and more, and the solid blue mist above our heads fell one by one, tearing cracks into the ice under us, and the snakes screamed and fell into the cracks.
When the old knife saw it, he was angry and scolded: "Damn, 10,000% of this snake was changed by that bastard of Tenzin Kava!" Only this guy is so bad, even if he dies, he won't let us go! ”
With that, he knelt on the ground and picked up his gun and aimed it at the giant snake.
"Oops!"
Shen Tangzhi didn't know what she was thinking, and the ground shook violently, shaking her down at once, and the flashlight came out of her hand, and she immediately rolled away.
I grabbed Shen Tangzhi, who was about to fall to the side, with one hand, and pressed the muzzle of the old knife with the other hand: "It's useless to hit it, it's better to break the ice under our feet!" ”
The old knife instantly understood what I meant: "You want to get into that black pipe?" ”
"That's right! The black pipe must also be a strange thing, those humanoid creatures do not know what era they lived in, how many thousands of years ago, but they seem to be asleep, we can find a way to survive by burrowing into it. ”
When the Polar Sky Sea really collapses and falls from a high altitude, we people will definitely be more than lucky, not to mention that there is still a giant snake chasing after us now, and there is only this way to choose.
The old knife immediately opened fire, firing a shuttle of bullets into the air, and then picked up the butt of the gun and slammed it into the ice, and the remaining three of us also felt the ice axe hanging from the backpack from behind us - the ice beneath our feet looked extremely thin, but it was as hard as the 10,000-year-old ice we had seen in the glacier where the temple of Somol was found, and the three of us slammed it with all the strength of our milk, and there were only a few cracks in the ice.
The old knife glanced back and said hurriedly: "Quick!" That shit-day snake is coming! ”
"Your gun!"
As soon as Shen Tangzhi reminded me like this, I immediately remembered that I still had an M4 carbine, and I immediately picked it up and shot at the ice-
The ice finally cracked with a "click", and the giant snake behind us was already a few meters away from us, and if it hadn't been for the shaking of the ground, it would have pounced.
We used our ice axes to smash open a wide hole along the crack, and the four of us swooped through and burrowed into the black pipe.
The "black tube" was filled with a cold viscous liquid, we plunged into it, but it felt much warmer than staying outside, and I accidentally took a breath, I thought I was going to suffer, but I didn't expect a cold liquid to enter the trachea along the nasal cavity, not only did I not choke at all, but I "breathed" the air!
Before there was time to study the miraculous liquid in the black tube, a violent vibration came again, and the ground above our heads was instantly torn apart, and the giant snake seemed to know that the end was coming, so it hissed wildly, and hit it head-on, and swallowed us with a pipe.
We only had time to hold each other close to each other, and it was pitch black in front of us—we had been swallowed by a giant serpent.
Immediately afterward, we felt ourselves tumbling and falling, and the feeling of falling was accelerating—we knew that the Polar Sea had finally collapsed, and now there must have been a terrifying scene of the sky falling apart, and we were in the belly of the snake, especially with fear.
The extreme shock and fear instantly grabbed everyone's heart, and I even had a delusion - I couldn't feel the beating of my heart anymore, and I couldn't say something nonsense in my mouth, but whether it was my own words or what the old knives around me said, I couldn't distinguish the words, I only heard a loud sound like the sky and the earth collapsing, as if the heavens and the earth were disintegrating and the universe was turned upside down.
About a minute later, there was a loud tremor, and I fell unconscious.
I don't know how long it took for me to wake up again.
My mind was still "buzzing" and roaring, and the feeling of the world spinning had not yet subsided, and at the same time, I felt that my limbs and limbs were in pain everywhere, and my internal organs seemed to be churned together......
The liquid in the black tube had dried up for some reason, leaving only a glue-like film, sticking to my whole body, I reached out and tore the glue film that wrapped my head, and opened my mouth to speak, but when I opened my mouth, it was a mouthful of blood spurting out!
But this bloody cough made me sober up a little......
I called the names of the people around me one by one, only to hear the old knife and Hyde let out a groan one after another, and woke up, but after a while, Shen Tangzhi still didn't make a sound.
It occurred to me that we were still in the belly of the snake at this time, and if Shen Tangzhi accidentally slipped out of the black tube where we were hiding, it would probably go deep into the belly of the snake—if it was eroded by the digestive juices of the poisonous snake...... I quickly stopped this terrible assumption!
The situation was urgent, I couldn't help but panic, my hand touched to the side, but I felt a cold soft meat, I don't know what it was, so I pinched it, a few times later, I reacted to what it was, and suddenly my face was hot!
However, another question came to my mind at the same time: why was Shen Tangzhi naked?
And why is she so cold?
It's like ...... Corpse!
Thinking of this possibility, my mind went blank in an instant, and I tore off the mountaineering clothes on my body, wrapped it around Shen Tangzhi's body, and then shouted like crazy to let the old knife find a flashlight.
But the two of them groped in the dark for a long time, and still couldn't find the last strong flashlight, although there was still a burning stick in the old knife backpack, but at this time, the four of us were close together, how to use it?!
