Chapter 605: From the Inside Out

Originally, it was a rest area for a stretch of highway. Naturally, it won't be a rest area anymore, but there are still people resting here. Because of the changes in the surrounding terrain, there is a large area in the rest area, which has been raised by more than ten meters, forming a flat-topped mountain. Because the terrain is higher than the surrounding area, people passing by here can rest here.

If it is larger and can accommodate more people, I am afraid that this place can develop into a gathering point. Now, if it weren't for the limited area and the location was not suitable, it would really develop into a gathering point. People who pass by here will choose to rest here. Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao passed by here, and then rested here, and heard other people's conversations.

This time, Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao were purely joining in the fun. Because the two of them heard others talking about what fairy treasure was born, many people rushed over to grab the treasure. This made Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao very curious. There are a lot of strange things in this world, and there are many things that can't be explained, but the matter of Xianbao is still too nonsense. It's because I think it's impossible that I go over to join in the fun.

The place where it happened is not too far away. It's in a small village. Judging from what is left of the small village, the original inhabitants of this small village, their living conditions must be good, which one should be relatively wealthy. As for now, of course, there will be no one living there.

There is not much danger in the small village, there are only a few living corpses, and it is not a dangerous place. People often pass by here, looking for food nearby, and they are not worried about the living corpses here. This kind of place is sparse and ordinary, and if it weren't for the farmland around the small village, no one would have paid attention to it. But in such a small village, it is rumored that there are immortal treasures, but I don't know if there are immortals.

What happened was that one night not long ago, there was a fire in the sky. It must have been a very large meteorite, and it fell on the place where this small village was located. After the fall, there was naturally a violent impact. Originally, the houses in the small village were still in good condition, although no one lived in them, but basically they did not fall. After this meteorite fell, these houses basically collapsed, and those that did not fall were only in the basic support frame.

When such a thing happens at night, you can see the falling meteorite from a distance, and naturally someone will notice it. After the meteorite landed, there was a lot of movement. After that, someone took advantage of the darkness to check it out. Nothing was found that night, except for a large crater. When it was daytime, I found that there was an entrance to the bottom of this pit. Below, deep underground, there are other spaces that can be explored.

Originally, I just thought the hole at the bottom was a bit deep, but I didn't pay much attention to it. The person who found it, just looked down, and found that it was not very good to go down, a little narrow, and it was also curved, so it did not go down. But the meteorite has not been found, and I don't know where it went. The people who came here to explore originally thought that they would find a meteorite to see if it would be a precious metal, but they did not find it.

At night, there was a light in the crater that had been smashed out by the meteorite. It was red and blue light, alternating and sometimes appearing at the same time. The light shot into the sky, dyeing the night sky a reddish blue. In the distance, you can see the light in the night sky. This is bigger than the movement of the falling meteorite, which will naturally attract people's attention.

That night, many powerful people rushed to the small village. I found that the light emanated from the ground. It emanates from the crater that was smashed by a meteorite. In this case, it is natural to go to the pit to check. At the bottom of the pit, which was originally just a hole that was not, there were many cracks around it, forming new holes. There was also light coming out of the cracks. Now, if you go deeper, it's a lot easier. The people who came here did not intend to give up and hurried down.

It was from then on that it was rumored that there were immortal treasures here. It attracted a lot of people to go underground and explore. Not to mention, there is really a mysterious place underground, not a crack, or a small crack as simple, underground, there is a complex structure of karst cave system, and the real source of light does not know where it is.

It has not been a few days since the meteorite fell, and the news has not spread very quickly. After all, everyone won't spread this kind of thing around. At night, you can't see the light anywhere. The people who rushed over wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to look for it. But as for what it is now, I don't know yet, but a lot of people have died.

Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao happened to be passing by, and after hearing about it, they rushed over. At night, seeing that light will be more attractive to both of them. At night, no one went in. That light only appears at night. It is said that when you enter the underground at this time, you will not be able to go deep, and there is a high chance that you will die. So everyone is waiting for the day to come.

"What do you say is underground, how does that light come out, could it really be that there is a fairy treasure appearing?" While waiting for the day to come, Zhang Tao said.

"Impossible, if there are any relics of civilization, or some special substance, then I still believe it. But Xianbao, I don't believe this. If there were immortal treasures, wouldn't there be immortals, there should be no immortals. This place, there is a problem, the people who have been in it, many have died, but no one has found out what is there, if we go in, we must be careful. Jiang Feng said.

"I don't believe in any immortal treasures, I guess it's all nonsense. One thing I believe is that the danger here must be great. Dead people for no reason, this kind of thing, is even more terrifying. If you don't even know how to die, it's even more dangerous. Maybe it's some kind of radioactive material, and then when you go down, you come into contact with it too much, and they all die. Zhang Tao said.

"This is very likely, when we go in during the day, we must be careful, if there is anything wrong, we must exit as soon as possible." Jiang Feng said.

Originally, Jiang Feng was purely curious, so he rushed over to join in the fun. I thought there was some ruins here, or something really fell from the sky. He didn't take it too seriously, even if there were really underground ruins, Jiang Feng didn't think that he could find anything good, so naturally he wouldn't take it too seriously. But now, Jiang Feng attaches great importance to this place.

Here, it's not far from Wucheng. Although Jiang Feng had just recently come here and hadn't lived near Wucheng for several years, he had a memory of the end of the world for sixteen years. Because most of the contents of his end-time diary took place near Wucheng. After he was far away from Wucheng and returned to the deep forests in the north, his end-of-life memories were rarely used. Now, Jiang Feng remembered something.

A thing that has something to do with this big pit. This incident was not experienced by Jiang Feng himself, but he heard it. The content is not much, but it is said that there is a big pit in one place, and many people have gone to investigate, and they have all died. The strangest thing is that I don't even know where the corpse has gone.

Now that I think about it, when I heard about it, I thought I heard that there was a light at night, but I don't know what the light was. At that time, I didn't inquire much about my thoughts, because there was no follow-up at this time, and it was useless to ask, just when I was idle and chattering.

Now that he has seen the crater that was smashed out by the meteorite, and has seen the light that appears at night, Jiang Feng has to pay attention to it. There are a lot of people who have died now, and I don't know how they died, among the things that Jiang Feng heard, they were all dead, which is not ordinary. Since he wants to go in, he must be careful.

"I guess it's going to collapse after going down. If this collapses completely, it can kill everyone, and no one can think of it. It's quite possible. If it collapses, then the way into it will be blocked. If anyone comes, they won't be able to see the entrance, and they won't be able to see the light, so naturally they won't take this place seriously. Jiang Feng thought in his heart.

The light that appears at night does not last forever. It hasn't been around for a long time. But at night, no one ventures in, and if you go in at night, you can get out of ten. If you set up a stall and go in, you can get three or four people out.

When the day dawned, the people who had gathered here began to act. Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao also went to the bottom of the pit. The hole at the bottom of the pit had become so large that several people entered at the same time without looking crowded. Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao passed over in a hurry, Jiang Feng had already reminded Zhang Tao and asked him to be careful that the hole might collapse, the two of them decided not to separate, but to go together, if there was anything, it would be good to take care of it.

To enter from the entrance, you need to go down at least a hundred meters. Fortunately, this entrance is not straight up and down, it is zigzag, which is much easier. After that, there will be a large slope, continue to go deep into the ground, and after at least 30 turns close to 180 degrees, finally enter the underground cavern. This is the cave that exists underground.

The people who came in hurried into the distance, deep in the cave to investigate. Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao were not in a hurry, they walked slowly, observing the surrounding situation. Naturally, there was no light in the cave, which was difficult for Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao, both of whom had night vision equipment.

"There are a lot of ores here, if it is still a peaceful era, just these stones, develop it, this must be a very good tourist attraction. It's a pity, it's not going to work now. Zhang Tao said.

The ore Zhang Tao said is a stone like mica, which looks really good. Jiang Feng didn't have much research on these stones, and basically couldn't tell what kind of stones they were, but Jiang Feng knew a little.

"It is said that the darker the color of mica, the darker the location of its existence. The mica stone deep underground is very dark in color. Also look at the stones here, the color is not agreeable. Some of them are very dark, and some of them are translucent, which is a bit abnormal. There may have been geological movements here that lifted material from deep underground, otherwise it wouldn't have been. Jiang Feng said.

"There's nothing surprising about this. Do you remember the place where you rested before? Isn't that just being lifted up there? If it weren't for the violent geological movements, there wouldn't be such a place. It is not surprising that there is also a geological movement here. Zhang Tao said.

This was indeed reasonable, Jiang Feng nodded and continued to walk forward. Seconds later, the two of them saw two bodies. Lying flat on the ground, his body still has residual warmth, and he has not been dead for a long time. Looking at the body, I didn't find any injuries, and my expression was relatively normal, without that frightened look, it seemed that he died all of a sudden.

After checking and finding no clues, Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao continued to move forward. Naturally, there will not be only one cave here, but many caves connected together, and the terrain is still very complicated. Although there are many people coming in, it is large enough, and the structure is complex, so after it is dispersed, it seems that there are fewer people.

I saw the corpse again, and after checking it, it was the same as the previous two corpses, with no scars, and a calm expression, which was very strange. Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao began to wonder if there would be any poison here, silently entering the human body, and then poisoning the person to death. The two of them began to be cautious, but they didn't notice any poison.

As I continued to move forward, I began to find corpses, all of them in the same way of death, without wounds, and with a calm expression. After continuously discovering corpses, Jiang Feng and Zhang Tao found more than two dozen corpses at once. It was clearly a team, all of them fell to the ground, all dead. Judging by the way they fell, they should have died suddenly.

There were many corpses found this time, and Jiang Feng checked them for a while, but they were no different from the previous ones. Zhang Tao didn't see anything, and Jiang Feng didn't find a problem. When he was about to give up and move on, Jiang Feng suddenly stopped and looked at the corpse carefully. Then he touched the body with his hands, as if he had found something.

After a while, Jiang Feng suddenly condensed his vitality and cut open the chest of the corpse in front of him. The sharp blade formed by the vitality easily cut through the corpse. At first, it was normal, but after cutting deeper, it was not normal.

"Why is it empty, as if it has been corrupted, is this the cause of death? Did everyone else die like this? Zhang Tao said.

Jiang Feng had already made a move, and cut several corpses open, looking through the incision, the inside of the body was indeed empty, only the shell was still intact. If you squeeze the corpse hard, the corpse will collapse quickly.

"I guess I was eaten by some kind of bug. The bugs burrow into their bodies, numb them, eat them all, and then burrow out and leave, looking for a new target. Zhang Tao guessed.

Jiang Feng shook his head, and he said, "It's unlikely, these people should have exhausted their physical functions and then died." And they themselves don't know that they are depleting their bodily functions. We can't stay here for long, so let's go. ”
