Chapter 287: The Big Fish Is Gone

I first lowered Jack and the backpack with a rope, and then jumped myself.

I don't think there's anything abnormal about Jack's inner imbalance. Since entering this valley, I have stumbled all the way here, and I can't count how many injuries I have suffered, but I have felt it several times

I will surely die. But the reality is that not only am I not dead, but I am even more vigorous, like a Xiaoqiang who can't be killed. To be honest, I was a little worried about being officially awarded after I went back

this title.

Jack didn't carry anything on his back, but he was still walking slowly and needed my help. But he insisted on going by himself, saying that he wanted to feel the dam for himself.

My flashlight shines on the junction of the lake and the dam, the surface of the dam is gray, and the lake is black, because the lake is too deep. We are at the junction where we can see the lake and the dam

distance, to the other side of the underground river.

That's what I'm sticking to, I've always had a deep fear of the underground lake, and I'd like to get a little further away from it if I could.

One of Jack's arms was useless, and he could only use his left arm to put on my shoulder, using me as a crutch to move slowly. The glow stick was habitually inserted in the collar by him.

After walking for a while, I fanned my nose in confusion and sniffed hard. Jack looked at me and started doing the same.

For a moment, Jack shook his head. "Maybe it's gone."

I looked back at the riverbank. Everything behind him had disappeared into darkness, and even if he shone it with the one-eyed flashlight, he couldn't see the riverbank. You can't see the afterglow on the riverbank. But in my judgment,

I should have approached the big fish when I got here, and I had cut off several pieces of flesh from it, and the smell of blood spread far and wide. The last time I came down, I sniffed blood and found it.

I didn't know how to shine my flashlight around. The flat dam surface is covered with a layer of water, like a shaking mirror. Nothing above the water except me and Jack.

Jack didn't come down, he just saw my flashlight below and didn't really perceive it. I'm different, I know the big fish is supposed to be here. It is impossible for the current here to wash it away. But it was gone.

My brow furrowed involuntarily, and I took it from my neck and handed it to Jack. "If you hold it, you might be able to use it."

Jack hung Wei Chong around his neck with a sad face. "Are you sure?"

I nodded.

"Are you sure I can shoot a gun in this state and get a magazine?"

I nodded again, and Jack's words reminded me, and I pulled two magazines out of my backpack and stuffed them into his pockets.

"Don't be pretentious with me. If you have a situation, shoot quickly, otherwise you may not even have a chance to shoot. ”

"What do you know? Listen to the tone and you know what's going to happen. ”

"The hell knows what's going to happen! But that big fish doesn't disappear out of thin air, do you think it can be a gecko that can make such a big guy disappear? If yes. That must be overwhelming

Pack. ”

Speaking of this, my heart is cold. I only think of a big guy eating a big fish, and if it's a group of small creatures living in groups, it's possible to nibble up the pile of meat in a short time. Only remained

Fish with bones can be swept away by the water and washed into the icy world on the other side of the embankment. And it's more likely.

The eight-clawed monster that I am afraid of should be difficult to replicate, and should only appear in Lop Nur. is unique. Not to mention the octopus-like octopus-like monster that is as huge as a small hill, it is just the usual size

of the octopus. There is no record of it being found in freshwater basins. Of course, the freshwater squid of a certain lake sold on a treasure is not listed.

In this way, my attention could not only be focused on the direction of the lake, but I had to observe the environment almost from all angles and probe the enemy.

This makes us slower. Jack, on the other hand, seemed to have an anxiety disorder, and kept muttering, "You must know." You must know..."

Fear is spreading. If we continue like this, we will both freeze to death in the water, and my feet will be numb. No matter what, go to the other side first, as long as you get out of the water, the danger is much less. I dragged Jack to speed up

Degree.

Surprisingly, there was no danger. My feet and Jack didn't freeze, not even freeze before we got to the other side of the underground river.

The shore on this side is not very high, and it looks like a little more than a meter, and even Jack can climb it alone. And the space on this side is not very large, and the flashlight can vaguely shine to the end, maybe it's the end, me

I can't be sure, but the end of the flashlight is gray, not black, which is not usually visible.

These are not my main concerns, the terrain here is completely different from the exit of the Lop Nur underpass, which is what I am most concerned about. As soon as I saw the one-meter-high shore, I felt a lot in my heart

And a stone fell to the ground. I know I'm not back to the place that terrifies me in my dreams.

As soon as Jack came ashore, he was busy lighting the fire. The extra piece of fish oil I cut was ready to be lit, and I divided it into portions and packed it in my backpack.

The rags are rubbed into the fish oil, and the oil-soaked fabric ignites little by little. Jack and I put our feet close to the fire at the same time, rubbing hard, and it was almost the same if it wasn't frozen, and it took a long time to rub both feet to feel it.

The feet are warmer, the body is warmer, and the brain is not so sluggish. Jack and I asked a question at the same time: the width of the water was not right.

Judging from our experience of walking down the underground river, the underground river is gradually widening. The slower flow of water is also a sign of the widening of the water surface.

When Jack and I swam to the other side of the underground river to avoid the big bats, we could clearly feel the current, which should be counted as the middle of the underground river. But my judgment is that the river is on the surface of that place

The width of the dam is larger than the width we currently walk across the dam surface. And, Jack feels the same way.

I can't understand that. The water has come to a complete standstill here, and this is the end of the underground river, which should be the widest part of the water, why is it narrow? Is the lake shrinking here?

My point of view was not shared by Jack, who said, "Is it possible that this is not the side of an underground river?" ”

I looked at him like an idiot. "You mean we're still soaking in the river?"

Jack put the two shoes side by side on the ground, pointed to them and said, "This is water, and this is water too." ”

Then he pointed to the open space between the two shoes. "We're here."

I scratched my hair. "Like two parallel lanes?"

"It's more like two tunnels, separated by a rock wall." Jack said, gesturing to a fuzzy gray. "There should be a huge amount of water over there."

I don't know what he thinks, I think it's incredible. He thinks differently.

"Keep going, and we'll probably get around." Jack was pointing in the other side of the dam, the black, icy world. (To be continued......)
