Chapter 197: Falling into the Tiger's Mouth
"The octopus is so big, what the hell is going on, it's all empty underground? Isn't it the same as under the toad mountain in Changbai Mountain? There are giant toads at the bottom of Toad Mountain, and the bottom of Black Snake Island is full of giant octopuses. I said, "Qian, what kind of prehistoric giant sturgeon are you talking about, and what kind of monster is it?" Since Zhao Baixiong had never been down to the ground, he was very curious about everything below.
"These octopuses are so ferocious that we almost wiped them all out underwater, and the prehistoric giant sturgeon is even more terrifying, it was originally an extinct carnivorous sturgeon, but it grew to 50 meters in size. Why this kind of thing lives at the bottom of Black Snake Island is also a very strange thing." Ma Qian actually couldn't figure out what was going on under the Black Snake Island, the bottom of the island seemed to be empty, and there were strange creatures such as octopuses and giant sturgeons living in the water, and the size of these murderous monsters was ridiculously large, as if they had been cursed by something.
As he spoke, he walked along, and before he knew it, he had walked thousands of meters and found no trace of anyone. The five of them began to cautiously. Zhao Qingmai and Huaxin both felt a little closer to danger, maybe the Japanese were nearby. These two are really a natural pair, and their perception of danger is quite strong.
The five of them walked in concealment all the way, Zhao Baixiong kept learning the sound of a night owl, Ma Qian asked him why he was so terrifying, Zhao Baixiong replied that this was a code made with David Thorton.
Finally, forty or fifty meters away, a similar cry was heard, and it seemed that David Thorton was nearby. Sure enough, within a minute, a person crawled over from dozens of meters away, and this person was soaked all over, and it was Suoton.
Thorton first said hello to Soria after seeing everyone, after all, this is Thorton's direct leader. Then Suodon said to everyone: "Those people have gone down from the hole similar to the Fifth Ring Road with Lao Niu and the Lord of Xingyue Island, and there has been no news for seven or eight hours. There were ten people outside, and these people were very wary at first, and I didn't dare to get too close. After the heat of this day, these people are now staggering, and it will not be too difficult to disappear these ten if we are unprepared."
Originally from the Marine Corps, David Thorton is a battle-hardened veteran, and his estimates of the situation are often surprisingly accurate. At this point, Soria is absolutely convinced of David Thorton. Soria first praised Thorton for doing a good job, and in this weather, it is difficult to do a good job of monitoring without revealing herself.
"We can't kill all these ten people, we are here to find gold, not to kill, it is better to control them, and then we will enter the hole as soon as possible, we can't wait, it is very dangerous to fish for cattle now." Soria arranged for Suodun and Zhao Qingmai to be in a group, and she and Ma Qian were in a group to flank these ten Japanese in two directions. The painting heart stayed where it was, keeping an eye out for any Japanese escapes. In fact, Soria arranged this way for two purposes, one is to protect the painting heart, Bi Yi's actual combat ability is not too strong, and the other is that these people are all from Japan, and the painting heart is also Japanese. She definitely can't bear to do it, once she contradicts herself on the battlefield, it will be the greatest harm to herself.
The direction in which the 10 Japanese stayed was above the cliff by the sea, where there were five large holes that formed the shape of an Olympic ring. There was a cliff on one side of the place, and the sea fifty meters below, and now Ma Qian, David Thorton and the other four people quietly covered up from two directions.
Ten people, five of them were on duty, they were supposed to be standing on duty, because it was too hot, they took off all the clothes they could take off, and even threw their guns aside. Because there is not even a figure on this island, and it is too heavy and tiring to hold a gun.
A day has passed, and I don't know where Ritsukawa Kaede and Taihe Jialiang went with their team, and no one came up. Is there an accident, or has the gold been found, and everyone is rushing for it? These ten people can't take care of that much, their task is to guard the entrance to the cave.
There were five people sleeping, five people sitting on rocks on duty. Ma Qian raised his hand to signal, and a group of them was responsible for the two people on the left, Zhao Qingmai and David Thorton against the three people on the right. Two groups of men and horses moved to a distance of only forty meters from the Japanese, raising their guns and aiming.
As soon as Ma Qian's gesture fell, four rifles opened fire at the same time, and only one gunshot was heard, and four people fell. Four bullets were fired at the same time, hitting four people in one fell swoop. The other jumped up at once, and he was about to fall asleep in a daze, but when a gunshot rang out, he was left alone. As soon as he jumped up, still looking for a weapon, David Thorton shot him.
Ma Qian jumped up and quickly rushed towards the Japanese position, and the other three kept pace with him, and they all rushed forward quickly. The four men rushed to a distance of only seven meters from the men, and the five sleeping Japanese had not yet found their guns. The men were sleeping, but when they heard the gunshots, they all jumped up, but they were a little too flustered, and they didn't know what to do next.
Just when they understood that they should fight back, the four guns had already arrived, and Zhao Qingmai shot three shots at the feet of the five people, and these people didn't dare to move, if they moved, there would definitely be blood holes in their bodies.
This is the quick response, and by the time Painted Heart comes running, the battle is over. There were five corpses underground, and the other five had been sturdyly tied. Their weapons and equipment were also seized.
Beautiful battles, all ok in an instant.
Immediately, Soria issued an order, and David Thorton was still ambushed at the mouth of the cave, and the other five all went down to the cave to rescue the cattle and look for gold. That's why David Thorton was left behind, firstly to watch the five people who were caught, and secondly, to pick up everyone. If everyone is in danger below, when Japan comes up below, David Thorton can also take the opportunity.
It was very easy to get down the hole and find the hole where they were going down, because there were still a dozen ropes hanging from the hole, and there were also a large number of metal rings on the stone walls.
Zhao Qingmai was injured, and Zhao Baixiong was not familiar with the environment at the bottom of the cave, so he could only open the way in front of Ma Qian. Then there are Zhao Baixiong, Soria, Huaxin and Zhao Qingmai. The environment under the cave is complicated, and there are a large number of Japanese people underneath, so be very careful. We found a large number of batteries in the Japanese equipment, which happened to be used for our own flashlights.
Everyone is connected with ropes and moves vertically down the stone wall, not too fast, in case of slipping, once it falls, there will be unnecessary injuries.
While sliding, Zhao Baixiong asked: "What kind of octopus is it underneath, and are there any other monsters besides this kind of thing?" ”
"I haven't found it yet, be careful, we're in the end, we have to climb down a straight rock crevice," Ma Qian said, lowering his head and burrowing into a crevice, which was less than a meter wide and could only be moved down by one person. Fortunately, this is a slope, not a vertical cave, and it has been dropped by more than 100 meters, and when everyone's physical strength is exhausted, you can walk with your feet on the ground, which is very powerful for maintaining physical strength.
The chubby Zhao Baixiong was afraid of this kind of narrow space, and he felt very depressed. After about 30 meters of progress, the slope has dropped significantly, and people can no longer walk on it. In the cracks of the stones, Ma Qian saw a lot of scattered bread buns, which must have been dropped by the Japanese in a panic.
Why are they flustered? It must have been like we did in the morning, unable to control our bodies and sliding all the way. Now you can't blindly slide down, the environment below is not clear, and you must keep your body.
This time, Zhao Qingmai fixed an outdoor hiking ring on the rock, fixed it with a rope, and five people held the rope and slowly moved down.
Ma Qian in front of him moved down about seventy or eighty meters, and along the way, he found that there were many things in the surrounding rock crevices, food, medicine, and clothing fragments, and it seemed that the Japanese had fallen from here. Descending to the end of this hole, there is no road, the bottom is empty, Ma Qian used a flashlight to shine a flashlight, and found that there is water below, and this hole really extends into the underground hollow. Looking at the black water, a chill struck.
The surface of the water is six meters from the entrance of the cave, which is located in the position of an underwater dome, and if you want to go down, you must pass through the water. Ma Qian found that about ten meters away from here, there was a rocky passage, where people could stand, and they had to move there quickly, it was not safe to be in the water for a long time, and those ghostly giant octopuses would appear at any time.
Ma Qian reminded everyone: "We have arrived at our destination, and there is a waterhole below, and there may be danger inside. Octopuses generally perceive food through the violent vibrations of the water, we must fall into the water quietly, and then quickly swim to the opposite rock, and must not be too intense in the water to avoid attracting the giant octopus. As soon as the octopus comes, it may lure the ancient giant sturgeon over, and then it will be troublesome."
Ma Qian was the first to enter the water, he slowly fell into the water along the rope, the water here is not deep, only about one meter six, Ma Qian can show a head when standing in the water. He looked around and found no movement. Then he summoned Zhao Baixiong to also go into the water, and Soria, Huaxin and others also came down one after another. Ma Qian stood in the water, holding a gun, and aimed at the water to prevent danger from appearing. Zhao Baixiong just took Soria and Huaxin to swim towards the opposite rock. It was dark, and the flashlight could not be turned on in the water, so it was lit by the dim light from the headlamp.
The platform on the rock wall was very wide, and it was the platform that the Star Moon Bird Lord climbed up with his cattle at that time. Ma Qian saw that Zhao Baixiong and Soria had approached the platform, so he was relieved, and he joined Zhao Qing and swam there.
Ma Qian looked at the platform while swimming, wondering, why didn't Zhao Baixiong turn on the lights, the platform was dark.
He felt that Zhao Baixiong's brain wouldn't turn, why didn't he turn on the strong flashlight when he landed safely, gave himself a signal, and by the way, Zhao Qingmai and me were illuminated?
Ma Qian was a little angry, and when he got on the platform, he must slap Zhao Baixiong hard, this brainless thing. Ma Qian and Zhao Qingmai also approached the rock, and they were about to climb up, but they stopped, because four guns were pointed at them. There are only three people in Zhao Baixiong, Soria, and Huaxin, why do they have four guns, and it's not like this for jokes! It must be that the three of them are in danger, and they fell into the tiger's mouth as soon as they entered the hole!
