Chapter 52: Reinforcements Destroyed
According to my personal analysis, the dart bomb used by the iron donkey was mainly an electromagnetic attack, and did not produce much smoke, so I was able to see the effect of the explosion site very quickly. 【Fengyun Novel Reading Network】
The bugs on this big "face" are all gone, and they are very clean. But looking further back, I could see two more grimaces in the distance.
Although they are not as big as before, they are fierce, and there is a sense of racing with each other to see who can get here first.
I found that my heart, which I couldn't settle down for a while, hung up again. I looked at Jiang Shaoyan and the iron donkey, what does that mean, do you still have dart bombs?
Their faces were not much better, so they rushed here, and I knew that I didn't even need to ask.
The special police officer thought very sadly, and took out a posture of being sacrificed at any time, checked the gun, and could see that he wanted to fight once in a while, even if he died, he would fight before dying.
I thought the same thing as him, and I picked up the gun.
Jiang Shaoyan and the iron donkey were still trying to escape, Jiang Shaoyan looked at me and the iron police, and suddenly muttered, "Save it, escape together!" ”
He and the iron donkey turned around at the same time and ran into the distance. In the past, I promised to follow with the SWAT, but this time we looked at each other.
I really don't think this kind of escape is meaningful, we all go deeper into the cave, what is this called? Isn't it finally blocked by the enemy?
But I and the special police can't stop here, otherwise without Jiang Shaoyan and the iron donkey, we will be even more lonely.
We went along. There is also a river in this cave, right next to us, but it is narrower and the current is faster.
As we fled with Jiang Shaoyan, I noticed that he was getting closer and closer to the river, and finally ran almost close to the shore. I think of one thing, when we traveled to Changbai Mountain, we used a copper pipe that can be stretched, and now on this occasion, we have to use the copper pipe to squat in the water to avoid grimace insects, will it be a good way?
I hurriedly shouted out this thought and asked Jiang Shaoyan about them. Of course, the special police were confused, and they didn't know what I meant, Jiang Shaoyan and the iron donkey shook their heads slightly when they heard this, and Jiang Shaoyan even took advantage of the time to reply, "No!" ”
These two words pierced my heart like a needle, and my eyes went black almost instantly, and three words came to my mind, "Dead!" ”
But my blind talk also stimulated Jiang Shaoyan's thinking.
We fled as fast as we could, but we also watched the grimaces approach. Jiang Shaoyan pointed to the river, suddenly shouted to stop, and asked us to hurry into the water.
As mentioned before, the flow here is fast. We all felt very stressed when we got off our feet, and I even suspected that if my feet slipped, I would be swept away by the river, and it would be difficult for me to stand up again.
But we held each other's hands, which can be regarded as a kind of support, and everyone still stood in the deepest part as much as possible.
Jiang Shaoyan was not satisfied with this position, he glanced at the iron donkey, these two brothers are really smart, they are all half-squatting and groping in the river, Jiang Shaoyan took the time to say to me and the special police, "Take a deep breath and adjust the qi evenly." ”
But he didn't give us much time to adjust, and in the blink of an eye, he and the iron donkey each carried out a large rock.
The stone was heavy, and they each held it with one hand, and both of them were a little unsteady on their feet. But the two of them made up their minds not to let go, and Jiang Shaoyan also led us deeper into the river.
In my estimation, the deepest part of the river was close to two and a half meters, and we stood up straight, and we couldn't touch the surface of the river even if we stretched our arms up. And in the moment before entering the water, we all held our breath.
At this time, I also understood what Jiang Shaoyan meant, he wanted to gamble, we held our breath for two or three minutes, and the ghostface worm would give up this pursuit because it couldn't find us.
I don't know how successful this bet is, but I'm willing to give it a try.
The four of us formed a circle underwater, with the iron donkey dragging me and Jiang Shaoyan dragging the special police. Jiang Shaoyan and the iron donkey had a good mentality, they all lowered their heads, closed their eyes, and the special police and I both raised our heads and looked at the water.
Actually, I don't want to look at it, because when I look at things in the water, my eyes are swollen, and I see very vaguely through the water, but I have this hurdle in my heart, which means a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
I have to say, the ghost-faced insects are very smart, they chased after them, they actually knew where we were diving, and they all rushed to the area above our heads.
They are no longer invisible, and small groups gather together, competing to be the first to shine with the silver light on their bodies. Although the light is not aggressive, it is reflected in the water.
I was so stimulated that my heart couldn't stop beating faster. Holding your breath in the water, the most taboo is to be disturbed, and in this way, the oxygen consumption also increases.
I was very uncomfortable, and the discomfort was reflected in my hands. The iron donkey tugged on my hand, he must have felt this abnormality, he slowly opened his eyes, don't look and couldn't speak, but he increased the force in his hand, and pinched me hard.
I knew in my heart that if he asked me to resist again, there would be a turnaround.
I wasn't trained to hold my breath underwater, so I thought of a stupid way to try to make myself feel lethargic, a state that only I have when I sleep.
I found this trick very effective, and my mind calmed down a lot, and I was not as uncomfortable as before. I simply learned the iron donkey, and no longer looked up, so that I would not be stimulated by the silver light of the grimace insect, and I would not be out of sight and out of mind.
But the special police can't do it, he was not guided by Jiang Shaoyan, and he kept looking up, his mentality was even more chaotic than I was just now, and he suddenly made a mistake.
I don't know what he saw, he spat out. A bubble quickly rises to the surface of the river.
In fact, we are now short of oxygen, but the special police officer has less of this breath, so that he will not be able to bear it, which is definitely a psychological collapse. The SWAT wriggled his body, trying to get rid of Jiang Shaoyan and float to the surface. Jiang Shaoyan pulled his hand and didn't let him go. The trouble between these two people also affected me and the iron donkey.
The four of us are a unit, and I know very well what the consequences will be if he floats up at this point.
The iron donkey was holding the stone while dragging me, and I couldn't spare any extra hands, and I had no choice but to pull at the SWAT.
The SWAT was almost crazy, after a while, he vomited bubbles several times, this time it was definitely really hypoxic, not only did my help not help him, but he also scratched and scratched in turn.
I hit the back of my hand and felt a pain in my heart. I reckon there's definitely a piece of meat missing from the back of my hand, but I don't want to give up on him yet.
I changed my routine and tugged at the collar of his clothes. In fact, no matter what I do, I will play the role of assisting, and whether I can control the special police depends on Jiang Shaoyan.
Jiang Shaoyan's attitude is completely opposite to my busy attitude, after the SWAT spit out a few bubbles, he put more energy on the river.
He looked up too.
These strands of bubbles also stimulated those grimace insects, they couldn't swim, but they pressed down the height, almost flying against the surface of the river. In addition, under such a backdrop, the silver light is so bright that I feel like there are several lights hanging above our heads.
I don't even think about my current situation, I continue to concentrate on it, I don't want the SWAT to float. But Jiang Shaoyan suddenly made a move that I didn't expect.
He let go, no longer dragging the SWAT, and then pulled me and told me forcefully that I should not stop the SWAT.
My mind was full of question marks, and I let go. The SWAT finally got rid of the two of us, and with the last bit of pitiful strength in his body, he rushed out of the river with his hands and feet.
There is oxygen on the surface of the river, but in the same way, death awaits him. I heard him break through the river, and his screams pierced my heart.
I had just adjusted my mentality, but now it has fluctuated sharply, Jiang Shaoyan and Tie Donkey were afraid that something would happen to me, so they freed up one hand and killed me. In addition, they held stones and walked freely at the bottom of the river. And in this way they carried me up under the river.
I didn't count how long we had walked, but at last they led me to the side and out of the river together.
At this time, I was deprived of oxygen, and my brain was a little dizzy, but I still didn't forget to look around while gasping for air.
Fifty meters away, the SWAT was still struggling, surrounded by grimace worms, attacking him with impunity. This scene looks very exciting to the eye, and the grimace insects are swarming, and they always feel like "souls".
I wanted to rush over and take the SWAT away, but I also knew that I didn't have the ability, plus the river was originally flowing out of the cave, and the SWAT was getting farther and farther away from us.
I don't feel good in my heart, because as soon as the SWAT died, it means that the reinforcements who helped us this time were all wiped out.
Jiang Shaoyan and Tie Donkey were not as sentimental as me, they were very calm, staring at the movements of the special police. Jiang Shaoyan also shouted a good opportunity, and beckoned me and the iron donkey to flee quickly.
We still walked into the cave, and Jiang Shaoyan still looked back from time to time as he walked.
He was worried that the Grimace Bugs would catch up, but the bugs were all focused on SWAT.
Speaking from the bottom of my heart, I vaguely feel that our successful escape this time was exchanged for the lives of our teammates. This kind of price makes me feel a little guilty. But I also understand that Jiang Shaoyan is not wrong to lead us to do this.
None of us spoke, so let's go a mile further and come to the end of the cavern.
I was a little depressed, but when I looked at my surroundings, this emotion was swept away, because it was so strange here.
It was empty overhead, and the sunlight was shining through, and the walls of the cave were all red rocks. One word popped into my head, volcanic rock.
Besides, there is water under our feet. Where we were, the water had just flooded our feet and necks.
Iron Donkey made a guess that there must be something like a spring underground, and that this is how the river was spewed out, and the red rocks indicated that this was probably a crater, and that there was probably a dormant volcano deeper underground.
I agree with his speculation. Jiang Shaoyan didn't say anything, just looked up and frowned from time to time.
I knew he must have found something, and I followed it, and when I saw the situation, I couldn't help but frown
