Chapter 63: Cat and Mouse Scratch
"Meow"
I immediately stopped where I was, holding the lamp and looking around.
Jiang Yuan also stopped, his eyes looked around vigilantly, Qian Jue also turned on the miner's lamp, and when the light source was enhanced, I saw some small shallow footprints on the gray-white stone slab in front of us.
"Meow-meow-meow-"
The three of them were startled by this inexplicable cat meow, Jiang Yuan was even more scared, I saw that there was something wrong with him, and asked, "Yuan'er, what did you see?" β
Jiang Yuan leaned against the wall and held the miner's lamp, his face was a little pale, and his breathing rate was also a little unstable, I saw that he was not right like this, so I immediately walked over and patted him on the shoulder, "Hey, what's wrong with you?" β
Qianjue took a few steps forward with the miner's lamp, squatted on the ground to check it, and came back to us and said, "It's not a cat." β
Jiang Yuan's face relaxed obviously after hearing this, and I asked tentatively, "Are you afraid of cats?"
Qian Jue smiled, "He was bitten by a cat when he was a child, so he has always been afraid of this thing." β
I thought it was incredulous and said, "You've been bitten by a cat?" Why, cats generally do not take the initiative to attack people. β
Jiang Yuan closed his eyes, pinched his eyebrows with his fingers, and said, "Of course, ordinary cats don't attack humans. β
"What is that unusual cat like?" Actually, I just asked casually.
"Don't eat mice."
I looked at his back as he walked in front of him with a flashlight, and said okay, that's the right answer.
"Meowβ"
This cat meow seems to be closer, this time it was not only Jiang Yuan, but I also began to feel creepy. The three of them stood in place and looked in three directions, and the cat's meow was getting closer and closer.
"Qianjue. Are you sure the footprints aren't cat's? I asked.
Qianjue said: "Of course not. β
"Then how can there be a cat meow, you listen. It seems to be getting closer. β
Qian Jue also felt very strange, suddenly, a black shadow quickly flashed in front of me, my flashlight was the strongest, the appearance of that thing was disgusting at first sight, what kind of cat is it, it is simply a mouse.
"Qianjue, it's just a mouse, do you see it?"
"I see, but"
"But what. What's next, it's another crossroads ahead. β
"Left."
As we turned the corner, the gray slate began to change subtly, the original intricate and endless patterns gradually faded, and more and more cats meowed from all directions.
Jiang Yuan was the first to react, he turned off his headlamp and asked us to turn off all light sources, we did it immediately, and the three of them fell into darkness in an instant.
In the silence, the meow of the cat became more and more obvious. And I was nervous enough to hear my own heartbeat.
After about three or four minutes, I suddenly saw two small red dots faintly appearing in the darkness, as if they were infrared light spots, and the two red dots were moving towards us. I thought it was Bai Yun who was worried that we would also come down, and just as I wanted to shout, Qian Jue covered his mouth, "Don't shout." Look over there, Boss. β
Four, six. Eight
More and more red dots appeared in my field of vision, and they all appeared in pairs. I thought of the big mouse I had just seen, and I chuckled in my heart, and said that it would not be so unlucky, we are not here to rob the tomb, and the owner of the tomb is guilty of entertaining us with these things.
Jiang Yuan retreated from the front to our side, and as soon as he moved, those red dots instantly messed up, as if he was frightened by something, and the speed of moving forward became faster and faster.
Suddenly a gunshot rang out, three pairs of red dots disappeared, Qianjue and I also began to raise the gun, Qianjue fired two shots in a row, and two pairs of red dots disappeared, and the number of times I shot ten fingers barely counted, and it was pitch black here, although I held the gun, but I didn't dare to act rashly, even if it was empty, if I accidentally injured my own people, the sin would be great.
After a few gunshots, the red dot directly in front of us had completely disappeared, and Jiang Yuan's voice came from the darkness, "Follow me, go quickly." β
In the dark, the direction does not change, and I can't see what is under my feet, so I can only follow the breath of the person in front of me by feeling, but it didn't take long to walk, I felt as if there were countless eyes staring behind me, I glanced back, gasped in my heart, stretched out my hand and just touched Qianjue's shoulder, Qianjue felt that I might have a situation here, he stopped Jiang Yuan in front, and then pulled me aside, and after standing against the wall, I was even more hearty to my throat, Because my vision is full of red points of light.
"Why are these dead rats so ghostly?"
Jiang Yuan and Qian Jue didn't say anything, obviously all their energy was on how to deal with these monsters at this time.
"Yuan'er, turn on the miner's lamp, you are playing hide and seek in the dark with the rats, and we are the ones who suffer."
"Not necessarily." Jiang Yuan's guns were already full of ammunition, "If their vision in the dark was really like rats, then we would have been gnawed to the bones." β
"So they're not mice?" I asked.
Qianjue's left arm flashed, and the gunfire rang out instantly, and at the same time, two yellow eyes suddenly appeared in a red point of light on my left, and the shape of these eyes was exactly the same as that of a cat.
I knew that Jiang Yuan was afraid of cats, so I touched his backpack in the dark and leaned over to stand beside him, Jiang Yuan obviously also saw those yellow eyes, and his body trembled obviously.
"How are you?" I asked.
Jiang Yuan handed me the gun and said, "You take it for self-defense, and give me the soft steel wire in my backpack." β
I didn't know what he wanted to do, but I didn't ask, I turned out the soft steel wire in his backpack in the dark, Jiang Yuan put on the ring, buckled the safety buckle, and began to walk forward with the soft steel wire in his hand.
Qianjue leaned over to me, handed me the flashlight in his hand, and said, "You follow Yuan'er over there, and I'll cut off here." β
"No, you think this is a martial arts novel, after the break, go quickly."
I forced him to follow behind Jiang Yuan, and in the dark, I could still accurately judge the specific location with my extraordinary hearing.
Those points of light were getting closer and closer to us, and behind us, there was already a red light, and if we counted it according to the two eyes of a mouse, there were at least a few thousand mice behind us.
"Damn, didn't you say it's just a labyrinth? How can there be monsters in the labyrinth, this tomb owner is really not authentic. I whispered.
Jiang Yuan suddenly turned on the miner's lamp, and the surroundings lit up all at once, but it was only for a second, and my eyes fell into darkness again before they could adjust to the light.
Qianjue asked, "See clearly?" β
Jiang Yuan said: "See clearly, the Xun position is free, and we will break through from there." β
I said, "Are you sure?" Just in that second, you can see the formation? β
Qianjue opened the safety buckle on my backpack, hung up the climbing rope, and said, "Boss, one second is enough." β
I nodded, "Yes, you are all specially trained, but how can we rush over, you see the red light on the opposite side, there are thousands of eight hundred, if this eats people, one bite at a time, our brothers and sons are not enough for them to share." β
Jiang Yuan suddenly sneered, he rarely had this kind of frightening feeling, I saw him turn on the light source on his watch, and the light blue faint light gave people an illusory feeling. (To be continued.) )
