Volume 2 The Lost Lost City Chapter 131 Underground Ecosystems
Kai Xiaocha tapped a piece of wood lightly, and the wall suddenly made a popping hollow sound, as if it was empty inside.
I immediately realized that there must be something strange in this wood. So he and Kaixiao used the shovel prepared in advance to smash a hole in the wall.
The moment the hole was opened, I smelled a musty smell, and it was hollow inside.
I'm cĒo, there's really something strange in this underground. I didn't even think about it, and I was just ready to widen this little black hole.
But before I could do anything, I heard a squeaky sound from inside. I was immediately shocked, how could there be creatures inside this sealed wall?
Just thinking about it, he suddenly screamed: "I'm cĒo, what is this?" ā
I immediately looked in the direction of my finger, and I couldn't help but gasp when I saw it. Your sister, there is blood flowing out of the hole.
Kai Xiaoxiao immediately dragged me back a few steps, and looked at the hole tremblingly: "Do you say there is a bloody corpse or something in here, to guard here?" ā
I gasped and shook my head, "I don't know, but it's certainly not normal." Let's be careful. But since the thing lives in a dark basement all year round, and is completely sealed inside the wall, it must be afraid of light. Come, give him a little light and heat. ā
Deserted and said that I am not the sun. I said you're stupid, you don't know how to use torches.
Deserted smiled awkwardly at me, immediately lit the torch we bought, and approached the hole.
Suddenly, the squeaking sound became louder and louder, and then a large number of rats and snakes came out of the hole.
Grass, this cramped basement, was instantly filled with the stench of rats.
Desertion and I immediately found a high place and stood up to avoid these damn rats.
The rats seemed frightened and scurried around. Soon, however, the rats spotted us and quickly attacked in our direction.
It looks like he has a grudge against us, as if he wants to eat us alive.
Desert immediately waved the torch, but it didn't have much effect, the rats continued to attack, our flames burned no less than a dozen rats, and the smell of barbecue was in the air.
The desertion really couldn't bear the pungent smell, and as soon as he turned his head, he vomited.
I knew that the two of us alone would not be able to deal with so many rats, so we had to find a way to rush out.
However, this dense number of rats has surrounded the narrow basement like a tide, and we can trample several rats to death with a random step, just thinking about it makes me feel disgusting.
And I just looked closely, these rats are not ordinary mice, their bodies are much larger than ordinary mice, and their teeth are sharper.
When I saw these rats, I immediately remembered the rats raised by Lumen. The appearance of these rats is similar to the rats raised by Lumen.
I'm even more excited in my heart, these rats are not available in the outside world, unless they are raised by the Lumen people. In other words, once came here the Lumen people?
No matter what Lu Men says, it is also a branch of Panmen, although it has defected, but they are still grateful to Panmen.
Since the people of Lumen have been here and have arranged these rat traps, it seems that there is a great probability that there is something important hidden here.
And there are a lot of white snakes, mixed in with these big rats. I've heard from my family that a nest of snakes and rats must mean that something big is going to happen, and most of them are not a good thing.
Could it be that we encountered the legendary "nest of snakes and rats" today.
Compared to the extremely aggressive rats, those big white snakes seem to be much more stable.
Just as we were having a headache about how to get past the rat tide, the door was suddenly kicked open, and a familiar figure appeared in the doorway.
It turned out to be an administrator.
When the administrator saw so many big rats, he was also startled, turned around and ran away.
As soon as the door opened, many rats and snakes also crawled out. But it took a lot of pressure off us.
At this moment, he was accidentally bitten by one of the mice. This immediately made the desert angry, and the torch was sent towards the big rat fiercely.
The big rat was burning in an instant, and the flesh crackled.
I don't know if these big rats are scared of us, or if they are attracted by the exit, but in short, more and more rats are running in the direction of the door.
After fighting with the rats and the white snake for half an hour, almost all the rats ran out, and only a few remained.
When he saw this group of rats, he became angry, grabbed a torch and began to burn, and it didn't take long to burn the few remaining big rats alive.
It wasn't long before the Administrator returned, panting and looking as if he had just been through a big battle.
I was worried that those big rats would run out and disturb the peace, so I quickly asked the administrator, did those big rats run out? We have to do something to stop the rats that haven't escaped yet.
The administrator said don't worry, there are often rats in the Guangyue Building, so the power grid is arranged. He started the power grid just now, and it is estimated that the rats have been electrocuted alive.
We ran out to take a look, and sure enough, in the small Guangyue Tower, the corpses of rats were lying horizontally, and almost all of them had burn marks.
I breathed a sigh of relief.
The administrator was still a little uneasy, and told us to be more leisurely, and never have any more accidents, otherwise he really didn't have time to clean. Tomorrow he will be found out by the leadership, and it is a trivial matter for him to lose his job, and the key is that he is afraid of taking legal responsibility.
I hurriedly said don't worry, there shouldn't be any forks.
However, I searched around, but I couldn't find any trace of Li Xueqin, so I asked the administrator Li Xueqin?
The caretaker laughed and said that the girl was too timid, and as soon as she saw the big mouse, she ran away, and she estimated that she would have to come back later.
I nodded, women are naturally afraid of mice, I didn't think much of it, and immediately deserted and returned to the basement again.
I guess everything inside has escaped. I continued to expand the black hole and found that it was not completely hollow, but filled with soil.
However, the soil of the hole with a diameter of about one meter is loose, and those big rats are all concentrated in the soil with a diameter of about one meter.
It is not difficult to imagine that someone must have dug a hole in the place, and then filled it with earth, and raised this nest of rats and snakes.
The soil layer is loose, so it is much easier for us to excavate. It didn't take long for us to clear out the one-meter-diameter hole.
I looked inside with a torch, and it was so dark that there was no end in sight.
I took a deep breath and got in.
It smelled so bad that I wanted to vomit several times. But we still bite the bullet and climb into it little by little.
And when we reached the end of the cave, the shovel suddenly slammed into a hard object.
I looked at each other and saw excitement in each other's eyes, we had dug something.
I deserted and immediately continued to dig non-stop.
And when this thing in front of me was completely exposed in front of us, I was dumbfounded, and I didn't expect that there was an artificially cast breeding table in front of me.
The terry is divided into many squares, and in each square is a nest of rats or a group of snakes.
This "feeding table" is very large, at least a dozen square meters, from our feet, all the way to the top of a meter or so.
These rats, or snakes, that live in the squares, are all larvae. There is no doubt that the people who ran out just now were adult rats and snakes.
These rats and snakes have no offensive power, and they even ignore us directly, obediently hiding in their nests, enjoying the last bit of warmth.
This scene coincides with our previous speculation, these rats and snakes are indeed deliberately raised. And they have already built a whole ecosystem in this place, completely self-sufficient, for these rats to grow up.
