"Can you change some new tricks? Every time, the road is blocked by gravel. I cursed at it.

The fat brother tried to move the stones blocking the road, but as long as the bottom moved slightly, the stones above immediately sank, and he was afraid that the cave would collapse entirely, so the fat brother didn't dare to move again.

The sound of the gravel falling just now makes my ears still ring. I complained again: "It's like someone waiting there, blocking the way back with a stone every time." ”

The fat brother suddenly came over and said vigilantly, "Who?" ”

I reluctantly said to him, "Nobody, I'm an anthropomorphic figure of speech." ”

The fat brother asked again: "A woman's method of seeking death?" Which woman? ”

It seems that he was also shocked and has not recovered yet. I ignored him, took my backpack and walked cautiously where my headlamp could reach.

Further on there was a downward tunnel, the angle of which was not very steep, and the height was less than one person, and we leaned back at an angle of forty-five degrees, stepping on the sharp stones that protruded from the ground, and staggering down with our hands and feet. The pit wasn't long enough to see the bottom, but it took us at least fifteen minutes to get back to the level because the road was so bumpy.

The river is slightly wider after going down, with the width of a one-way street. A drop of water falls from the top of the head from time to time, and the place where the water droplets fall is formed a conical stalactite, and there are several places where the water flow is more than that of the wall, and the stalactites on the top of the cave are immediately connected with the ground. Due to the moisture and warm air, it is a bit suffocating, like a sauna greenhouse, and sweat begins to seep out of the skin.

We came down to the end of the river, so we turned back and walked in the direction of the sinkhole.

As I walked, I saw piles of large mushrooms in the corner, and the mushroom caps were about the size of a large bowl, slightly different from ordinary mushrooms.

Generally, the mushrooms we eat at home are black-gray on the outside of the mushroom cap, the bottom of the mushroom cap is white shutter-shaped, and then the bottom is a white thick mushroom stem. The mushroom cap here is long upside down, and the louver-shaped white is on top of the mushroom cap.

I pointed to the peculiar mushroom and said to the fat brother, "Fat brother, you see that mushroom looks very interesting, but it grows the other way around." ”

The fat brother hurriedly walked over and watched it up close.

When I got closer, I saw that there were many such mushrooms further on, like a greenhouse for cultivating mushrooms, large and small, as long as there were gravel angles, almost all of them grew this kind of mushroom.

The fat brother also saw it for the first time, and said happily: "Such a big mushroom, it looks very strange, I don't know if it is poisonous, can I eat it?" ”

I looked left and right, and found that there was a section of the mushroom growing horizontally, like a lotus root, if the mushroom on the top was a big lotus leaf, the horizontal part below was the lotus root, and the horizontal part was about as thick as a cloth handle, and the length was about 30 centimeters, and it was also all white. It is also divided into sizes, the mushroom cap is larger, and the horizontal part below is also relatively large.

After reading it, I said to the fat brother: "According to my understanding, this mushroom should be edible, doesn't it mean that colored mushrooms are poisonous?" ”

The fat brother also nodded, and then curiously reached out to pick a mushroom, wanting to take a good look at it in his hand.

As a result, the fat brother pulled it, and the mushroom actually moved. The horizontal part of the mushroom, like a big white worm, arches forward one by one.

The fat brother was also so frightened that he retracted his hand.

After a few moments, the mushroom stopped again. And this thing is piled up, and there are always several of them huddled together.

Now the two of us are stupid, the world is strange, there are actually moving mushrooms.

The fat brother didn't dare to do it again, and pulled out a crossbow arrow from the quiver on his waist, and used the tip of the arrow to stab those climbing mushrooms. The fat brother's quiver is also quite high-end, like a toothpick holder, after pulling out one, the tail of the next arrow will reveal a small section from the barrel, just pinch it with two fingers, so that it is convenient to take the arrow next time.

The fat brother fiddled with the tip of the arrow for a while, but he didn't make any achievements, and the thing crawled forward as soon as it touched it, squeezing the surrounding mushrooms to the sides.

The fat brother stared thoughtfully for a while, then turned around and said to me in surprise: "I know what this is, Cordyceps." ”

I looked at the fat brother suspiciously and said, "Cordyceps? I've never seen Cordyceps alive, but I've seen it dry in a drugstore. ”

The cordyceps I've seen is a rugby-like thing that is attached to the head of a bug by a slender stem. It seems that the fungus parasitizes the insect head, and the effect is produced.

I looked at the thing in front of me again, the growth method is similar to Cordyceps, it is also a mushroom parasitic on the head of the insect, but Cordyceps sinensis is produced in the Tibetan Plateau, and it is much smaller than this, and the parasitic fungi on the top of the head are also different.

"It's not called cordyceps sinensis, it's called cave mushroom parasites, I think it's more appropriate." I muttered to myself, then tugged on the strap of the fat brother's backpack and said, "Don't delay your work, hurry up and find your way down." ”

The fat guy flipped his backpack and was ready to continue walking with me.

Before leaving, he wanted to catch one as a souvenir, but I stopped him and said, "I don't know if this thing is poisonous or not, if you take a bite, you won't be able to find the village or the store." Pull it down. ”

The fat brother thought about it and gave up the idea of souveniring.

The river gets narrower and shorter. We passed by a collapsed hole on the side, and wanted to go to the end first, but when we reached the edge of the cliff, there were only two people left in the river, and the fat brother and I just happened to be full.

The cave wall above me was also within reach, and I poked my head out to look down, still swallowing up some of the darkness, a small dim blue light in the darkness, flickering and flickering. It's like a warning light on the highway at night, when someone's car breaks down in the middle of the road, and the rear of the car is put on the road.

We turned around and walked towards the collapse we had just passed, and we didn't know where it led, anyway, we had no other choice.

While walking back, the fat brother still took the arrow in his hand from time to time to pierce those mushroom insects. He said, "Why don't I feel a little tired, why don't you find a place to rest for a while?" ”

As soon as I heard it, this is not like the style of the fat brother, don't look at the fat brother's body, but the motivation has always been very full, I have always been too lazy to go, he came to pull me, or the first time the fat brother shouted tired.

I nodded in agreement, and walked to a big falling rock, then climbed up and sat down, and took out a bottle of water from my bag, because we need to save, it is enough for the two of us to drink one bottle, otherwise one bottle per person, drink half and throw half, and finally when there is no water, we will drink our own tears.

We don't dislike each other when we arrive, and one person blows on the bottle. Then I took out another pack of biscuits, and I wasn't very hungry, so you and I ate them one by one.

While eating, the fat brother didn't forget to inquire about my gossip and asked, "What's the situation between you, Zhou Tongtong and Lu Shan?" ”

I shook my head and said, "It's nothing, one grew up together as a younger sister since childhood, and the other is so young as a student, what do I think?" ”

The fat brother glared and said, "What's small?" Why do I feel not small? Pretty big. ”

I said to him angrily: "Can you use the thinking of a normal person?" I'm talking about young age. ”

The fat brother smiled and said, "You don't have a human-faced beast heart, right?" You all lived together during a summer vacation, and nothing happened? ”

I also said with a sneer: "It happened, and there was a bed to sleep, do you think they are all the same as you?" The little girl was afraid of thunder, and she scared me enough to burrow into my bed. ”

The fat brother said with self-pity: "Hey, I thought that my tigress could kick my chin as high as her foot." Thunder? Even if the plane dropped a bomb, it didn't lean close to me. ”

The biscuits were finished, the water was almost drunk, and we were ready to move on.

At this time, the fat brother took the opportunity to get up, put his face to my ear, and said in a very small voice as if unintentionally: "We are being followed, and there are people nearby." ”
