In this huge underground space, there are countless flying mayflies at the water's edge, their life is very short, after the larvae grow wings from the water, they can only live in the air for a few minutes, at this time their bodies will emit a special phosphor, and they will continue to glow for a period of time after death, so the entire underground is shrouded in a layer of hazy and mysterious white fluorescence.

As time goes by in the underground, our eyes have gradually adapted to this dim underground fluorescence, and the things around us are not as blurry as they were at the beginning, I looked at the soft big dianzi under me, like an umbrella-like cover, the middle part is white, and the surroundings are pitch black, it is indeed a rare big mushroom, with a diameter of no less than twenty meters.

This kind of fungus grows a lot in the damp area underground, seeing this big mushroom under me, the fat man and I immediately remembered that when we cut the queue in the Xing'an Mountains, we went to the mountains to pick fungus, just after the rain, we actually saw a mushroom higher than the mountain in the ravine, and the sky grew in the forest, we were amazed at that time, and the people in the tunzi said that it was the "emperor mushroom", if you are lucky. It can be seen once or twice a year in August. But this thing grows fast, rotten fast, just seen in the morning, it may be gone before noon, and there is a "emperor mushroom" near the forest, it is very dangerous, because the taste of this thing is too ostentatious, in addition to the different colors, its nature is also very different, and because of its scarcity, few people can know it in detail, so everyone can only see it, neither dare to eat, nor dare to touch, detour and walk over.

I discussed with the fat man, this mushroom is not as big as the one we have seen in Xing'anling, but it is not small. It should be the same as the "Emperor Mushroom" category, rolling down the gravel slope by the underground lake, it is almost impossible to climb back again, the gravel slope is too steep, and it is slippery to step on it, and it is impossible to stand on it at all, so I have to climb down from this "Emperor Mushroom" first.

We were washed underground from the top of the sieve-like cave and separated from a few other people, and my biggest concern was the "Spotted Jiao". There was a scuffle at the bottom of the "Wind Erosion Lake", and one of the two "Spotted Jiao" seemed to be killed by the falling Qianjun Stone Eye, but there was still one, including the "Whitebearded Fish King", which should have been washed into the underground lake by the torrent.

Thinking of this, the fat man and I didn't dare to slack off, regardless of the soreness on our bodies, and climbed from the top of the "Emperor Mushroom" to the edge and looked down at the terrain. Under the tall "Emperor Mushroom", there are countless high and low scattered ground mushrooms, the color and size are uneven, looking down like a mushroom forest, many long-tailed dragonfly-like mayflies, like groups of white ghosts flying and shuttling in it.

In the distance is the second level of the underground lake. When I just fell into the lake, I felt that the power of the water flowing eastward was very strong, it turned out that the underground lake in this huge cave was divided into two layers, with a large drop, on the top of the dome-like cave, there were countless holes, the big ones were more than ten meters, the small ones were less than one meter, the lake water on the top, and the groundwater in the mountains, were poured down from those holes, and all the water columns flowed into the underground lake above, here is a sloping pot bottom, the terrain on the east side is low, this layer of water is full, forming a large water curtain, Pouring into the second layer of the underground lake below, the lake is even larger, and the area with large water potential is not fluorescent, and it looks black and white, and it is difficult to distinguish its full picture.

If the rest of the people are still alive, it is very likely that they were washed up by the current to the second layer of the underground lake, and the "Emperor Mushroom" grows not far from the second layer of the underground lake, and we are condescending, trying to find the missing Shirley Yang and others from a high place, but we only see a few big fish jumping up in the water from time to time, where can I see half a figure, I let the fat man stay here and look, I will go down and look for a circle along the lake first.

I was about to use a paratrooper knife to pierce the mushroom down, but I saw a person swimming up in the lake below, although I couldn't see his face clearly, but looking at the figure, it should be Uncle Ming, I saw Uncle Ming climb ashore, walked a few steps with difficulty, looked around, and walked straight into the mushroom forest under the "Emperor Mushroom", looking at his appearance, it seemed that he also wanted to climb to a high place to see the terrain.

I said to the fat man, this old port farmer is really big enough, since he came here, the fat man will take care of him temporarily, and I will go to the lake to find the other two. Finally, it converges near the most obvious "emperor mushroom".

I was about to leave, but suddenly realized that something had happened, only to see Uncle Ming walking a distance of more than ten meters in the tall and short mushrooms, probably due to the joint fright, excessive fatigue, unable to take a step under the soles of his feet, tripped and fell to the ground, fell a dog gnawing mud, lay on the ground and turned over, rubbed his arms for a long time and did not get up, it seems that he is a little self-defeating thoughts, planning to die like this, I really don't want to move.

According to the explanation, Uncle fell down, this is nothing, but his body is heavy, alarmed a nearby thing, I and the fat man in the high place by the dismal fluorescence, found that the mushroom not far from him suddenly moved, there is a whole body black shell thing slowly wriggling, the black shell is layer after layer of arc, the body is very long, I sighed in my heart, not good, like a big centipede, if it is really a centipede, how big is it?

Uncle Ming was lying on the ground on all fours, his mouth was open and closed, as if he was talking to himself, maybe complaining again, but he was completely unaware of the danger nearby, the fat man and I wanted to shout at him on the "Emperor Mushroom" to be careful, but the sound was covered by the sound of the nearby water, and he couldn't hear it if he didn't speak closely.

My shotgun has been lost in the melee at the bottom of the "Wind Erosion Lake", only the pistol remains, the fat man's body has not lost much, the sports rifle is always on his back, at this time I want to shoot, I hold down his gun, although the range of the rifle can be far, but the caliber is not good, shooting here is useless, even if it is to warn him near Uncle Ming, it may not be able to save him, once he sees the big centipede, he must be scared that his legs are weak, and he can't walk out half a step, only I rushed down to save him. But the mushroom forest is full of dense mushrooms, although you can see Uncle Ming and the big centipede in the high place. But once the view must be obscured, and the fat man must act as a lookout, pointing me out the complex terrain in sign language from a high place, and shooting with a rifle at a critical moment.

Of course, this was a race against time, and there was no time to deploy these plans, so I just said to the fat man to see my signal action, so I stuck the paratrooper knife on the "emperor mushroom" and slid down from the inclined umbrella cover, and there were some very tall mushrooms underneath. It is distributed in a trapezoidal shape, and when it encounters a place where the slope is too large to settle, it uses a "paratrooper knife" to slow down, and soon goes down to the bottom. There are no rocks on the ground, and there is a full layer of small mushrooms the size of fingers, and there are large mushrooms more than a meter long nearby.

I glanced back at the fat man above, who hung his rifle on his chest, waved his arms, and played the flag language used for naval communication and liaison, which he had learned in Fujian before. It's very simple and intuitive, looking at his movements, the other party moves slowly, and then points in the direction.

I waved my arm at him to indicate that I had received a signal. At this time, a faint layer of mist appeared in the mushroom forest, and I was worried that the centipede would release a poisonous mist, so I took out a gas mask from my carrying bag and put it on. Holding the MI911 with both hands, he lowered the muzzle of the gun and quickly approached Uncle Ming's position.

After the fat man indicated a few directions, I found Uncle Ming lying on the ground, not far away there was a "boom" sound, although this sound is not loud, but it seems that countless feet and claws are around, and people are frightened to hear, and the sound of water here is weak, which is particularly alarming.

I approached quietly, trying to pull Uncle Ming up and run away immediately, Uncle Ming suddenly saw the gas mask, and was also startled, but then knew that it was his own person, stared at the dull eyes, smiled at me, and wanted to struggle to get up, but it seemed that the two legs had become noodles, and I didn't listen to the call, I was in a hurry to leave this dangerous area, so I made a silent gesture to him, signaled him not to make any movement, and then carried him up.

But before I could take a step, I heard Uncle Ming behind me suddenly burst out laughing, and my heart was cold for most of the time. How could the old capitalists under the imperialist colonies have good people, this time it was really careless.

I immediately flicked my feet, fell backwards, and pressed Uncle Ming under my back, this time I used enough strength to estimate that I could crush the old gang peasant half to death, but Uncle Ming's laughter was non-stop, and the sound was already a little off-the-beaten, and the laughter was ten times worse than the woman's crying.

I thought to myself that this Hong Kong peasant was dying and laughed out loud, remembering a poem, the devil's palace trembled in laughter, ***, it is the prerogative of revolutionaries to laugh out loud before dying, why should you laugh old capitalist, let you taste the iron fist of the proletariat Hu Ye, and implement dictatorship for you, see if you can laugh or not, but then I realized that it was wrong, Uncle Ming's laughter was not made because he wanted to laugh.

I hurriedly put a gun against Uncle Ming's head, and when I looked closely, Uncle Ming was already out of breath with laughter, his whole body was convulsing, and he was foaming at the mouth.

I looked around and found that where Uncle Ming fell just now, there were clusters of unusual small mushrooms, with a layer of green powder on them, and he licked them when he pounced, is this the kind of laughing mushroom? The powder was so sharp that when it touched the mouth, it became like this, and it didn't take a few minutes to laugh like this, and it would kill someone.

I was in a hurry, and quickly whipped Uncle Ming's ear scrapers, and took out the Beidi Xuanzhu and put it on the end of his nose, the smell of the Beidi Xuanzhu was very extreme, Uncle Ming smelled it, and sneezed a few times, which stopped the laughter, but the muscles on his face were laughing and cramping, and he couldn't recover for a while, and he was still convulsing, and his nose and tears flowed on his face, which was really embarrassing to the extreme.

At this moment, a rifle bullet was fired at a mushroom near me, and I turned around, and through the hazy mist, I saw the fat man holding a gun on the "Emperor Mushroom" and waving it continuously, as if to inform me to evacuate quickly.

A large mushroom near shook for a while, and the big centipede with a black carapace came out, Uncle Ming's position was just exposed in front of it, I hurriedly took a few steps back, tore off the gas mask, and first signaled to the fat man on the "Emperor Mushroom" not to shoot, and then said to Uncle Ming in a panic: "Uncle Ming, this centipede behind you is afraid that it is going to eat you, you sacrifice yourself to save me, I will never forget it for the rest of my life, I will definitely give you more paper money when I go home, you are saving people and dying, you will definitely be able to achieve positive results, I congratulate you first." ”

Uncle Ming was stunned, and hurriedly turned his head to look behind him, his eyes rolled and he was about to faint, so I quickly pulled him up and said to him: "Okay, don't joke with your old man, as soon as that guy shows up, I can see that it is not a centipede, it is a big pill that only grows in the ground, it is a vegetarian monk, our division doesn't know how many have been dug out in the underground of Kunlun Mountain, it is very common." ”

Uncle Ming heard me say this, so he took a closer look at the thing behind him, a five or six meters long arthropod "Maruji", this fat and thick beetle, with a pair of curved and hard antennae in front of its head, used to sense the path, the whole body is black, only the claws are white, and there are centipedes like centipedes under the thick body, this thing is very stupid, only eats underground fungi.

Uncle Ming let out a breath and wiped his sweat, this old fortune was picked up from the ghost gate again, and he reluctantly smiled bitterly at me, I asked him if he had seen Shirley Yang and Ah Xiang?

Uncle Ming was just about to answer, suddenly heard a sound of feet and claws scratching, we turned our heads to look, and saw that the body of the nearby "pill" shrunk into a ball, and the arc carapace wrapped it into a big tire, the green tendons on my head jumped, this is the posture of resisting the enemy, there must be some kind of huge threat nearby, I looked up to see the fat man in the high place, the fat man no longer needs the flag, and the arm is a movement: "Danger, run back!" ”
