Chapter 60: Mass Suicide
I looked at the top of the black smoke, and suddenly a strange face appeared, this face was clearly outlined, the size of a locomotive, and gradually took shape through the distortion of the smoke. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
There was no time to analyze it again, and in the blink of an eye, the giant face formed by black smoke had opened its big mouth, revealing a terrifying black hole, devouring us. I hurriedly shouted to both of them:
"There's no time! Shake the rope and we'll find a way to jump over! ”
The three of us immediately exerted all our strength and swung in the air in a uniform direction, and the rope shook like a pendulum due to inertia. We did not dare to hesitate, continued to exert our strength, increased the intensity of the shaking, and tried to narrow the distance between us and the abyss as much as possible at the moment of jumping out.
I shone my headlamp on a huge platform at the mouth of the abyss, and shouted to Yang Xue:
"It's too late! Let's unbuckle and get ready to jump over! ”
With the last swing of the rope, we untied the lock tied to our body in mid-air, pulled the rope tightly with both hands, and when the rope swung to the maximum extent, we suddenly broke off, and the three of us took advantage of this inertia to fall several meters in the air. Yang Xue was at the lower end of the rope, and the first one landed on the stone frame, I saw that she rolled in place a few times, retracted her momentum, and before she could get up, Boss Chen had already fallen down immediately. I was in the highest position, the farthest distance, when I fell, I was carried by the inertia of recovery, deviated a little, and hit the wall of the abyss fiercely, the whole person instantly lost balance, and fell sharply into this bottomless hole!
Seeing that he was about to fall into the bottomless abyss, he was extremely flustered in his heart, and subconsciously waved his pickaxe, unexpectedly, by chance, he embedded the pickaxe into a small groove on the cave wall, stopping the trend of falling.
But the tip of the pickaxe wasn't deep embedded in the cave wall, and I was hanging here alone, and the limestone seemed to be cracking rapidly. At the last moment, Yang Xue finally hung down a safety rope from above, I didn't think about it, I took the lock buckle and buckled it, just fixed the waist, that part of the cave wall finally cracked, I couldn't control the momentum for a while, the mountaineering pickaxe came out of my hand, and with the cracked rock, fell into the bottomless abyss.
My heart is so dangerous, if I slow down for a second, I am afraid that I will become a ghost in this bottomless abyss. But before I could catch my breath, I didn't feel right, and when I looked up, the black smoke had swept in, and I saw that it had condensed into a cloud in mid-air, like a large cloud, and it was pulled by that strange face, and it rushed towards me. Moreover, behind this black smoke, there is a steady stream of smoke from the mouth of the well, and it will not be long before this deadly black smoke can fill the entire cavern.
Yang Xue was quick to move, and he worked with Boss Chen to pull me up. As soon as I got up to the stone shelf, the black smoke had already come suddenly, and we dared to stop half a step, jump off the stone shelf, and run towards the depths of the cavern full of stalagmites, and the black smoke chased after us, and it seemed that it would not swallow us up, and we would not give up.
We ran wildly in the stalactite forest, only hating our parents for missing two legs, and running like a lost dog, as if we were dead. How can the feet be uneven, it is not as good as the flat ground, a careless, you may fall a dog gnaw mud, I run at the end, but also to jump over these potholes, I am crazy!
We panicked and gradually ran onto a stone platform, and in a higher position, Yang Xue suddenly noticed the change behind him, stopped, and let us see. When did I say in my heart, what else are you looking at, don't you want to die?
But Yang Xue, who was running at the front, had already regained the momentum of running, turned back to her body, and was looking at something in surprise. I was very puzzled, and I couldn't help but look back in curiosity, and I found that the black smoke, which had begun at some point, suddenly stopped the momentum of pursuing us, and swirled over the vicinity of the bottomless abyss, as if observing something. Soon, we saw a group of people slowly coming out from the side of our feet, those people lined up in long lines, holding torches in their hands, wearing skirts made of rat skin, all of them tall and fair-skinned, more than ten men, women and children, who seemed to be unaware of our existence at this moment, and were walking quickly towards the abyss. The black smoke seemed to detect the movements of these people, and re-condensed into a terrifying strange face in the sky, opened its huge black hole-like mouth, and pounced on the group.
These people were very strange, as if they had no fear of the black smoke at all, and continued to walk quickly towards the bottomless abyss, and at the moment when the black smoke was about to fall, they made even more shocking moves, only to see the person in the lead, walking to the edge of the abyss, almost without hesitation, he jumped down with a step. The people who followed closely behind also jumped into the abyss one by one in his direction, and the psychic black smoke was also stunned, watching this group of people make such a strange move, they stopped the posture of rushing over for a while, and fixed in mid-air, and the condensed strange face showed a puzzled look.
This black smoke was probably afraid of the bottomless hole, watching the crowd jump down one after another, and did not dare to attack rashly. This bizarre image lasted for tens of seconds, and when the last caveman jumped into the abyss, the entire cavern became dim again.
We were dumbfounded, and Boss Chen said in disbelief on the side:
"Is this the same group of people who attacked us just now? They...... Why did they commit suicide en masse? ”
I didn't dare to discuss these issues anymore, because the black smoke had reversed its momentum and was aimed at where we were, and it looked like it was about to pounce. I pointed to the side wall and shouted:
"Run along the cave wall!"
We climbed down from a high place, clinging to the cave wall, throwing our legs and running wildly, not long after running, a "door" with a height and width of about three meters suddenly appeared on the side of the rock wall, which opened on the top of the cave wall in an arched shape, and looked into the door, it was an artificially built staircase, extending upwards. The cavemen who committed suicide must have come out of this staircase, and without hesitation, we climbed up the crystal staircase, which had a steep slope, and we kept rising, and when we reached the end, a wide corridor suddenly appeared in front of us.
This corridor is 4 meters high, about 5 meters wide, stretching straight forward, and, on both sides of the corridor, there are several "rooms", this "room" is a bit like a cave in northern Shaanxi, which was dug out on the spot, and I estimate that this is probably the nest of the cavemen. But we didn't have time to check the layout of the room, because at the bottom of the stairs, deadly black smoke came after us, and we ran along the cloister, and soon we entered a man-made hall, which resembled the palace above, but in the middle of it was an altar, probably a place of religious sacrifice for the troglodytes, and it was not known where they worshipped the sacred.
However, what shocked us was that on the top of the altar, in a shrine, a huge skull was actually enshrined, this skull is 4 times the size of ordinary people, it looks very terrifying, if this is really a human skull, then, the deity of this skull, at least about seven or eight meters tall, this ...... Is it still human?
