The bedrock cave had turned into a hot and humid sulphur lava cavern, and the fat man and the dude beside him had begun to discuss soaking in the sulphur hot springs, and I was getting more and more worried. Because, the lava cave in front of you has begun to become a hole within a hole, and the holes are intertwined and criss-crossed.

A dazzling array of stalactites and stalagmites, the earth and the sky are connected to become a piece, so that the original single straight line of the karst cave, become a plane crossing, and three-dimensional connection, even two or more layers, forming a spiral cave network.

This makes our path forward complicated.

Caves are formed by the dissolution and erosion of groundwater along the layers and fracture surfaces of soluble rock layers. The rise and fall of the earth's crust will cause the water table to rise, resulting in many layers of karst caves. And in the dim, slippery hole, we finally had to stop our progress, not because we were resting, but because we could no longer walk in a straight line. The appearance of the karst cave in front of me is like a honeycomb plane, and the surrounding area has completely turned into a large underground spider web, and there are intricate karst caves everywhere, and I don't know how to choose the route to go.

The stalactites and stalagmites in the cave form a beautiful scenery, but it is only beautiful when it is set off by colorful lanterns. And now, the cave we are in is unusually dim, the distance is completely dark, everyone seems to be trapped in the mouth of a giant beast, only the faint and unknown glimmer of the flashlight, we can not get lost in this cave like a trapped beast maze.

Everyone sat on the ground without caring about the wet ground. I really can't let my tired legs continue to support my body.

I sat on the floor, twisted the kettle hanging from my waist, took a big sip of water, and handed it to the fat man. Then I glanced at everyone nonchalantly, and saw that everyone was exhausted, with their heads hanging and no one spoke.

The direction and choice of travel are the next urgent topics. So, I opened my mouth and asked the fifth master: "Fifth brother, the next road is not easy, you have a way to take us through this like a spider's web." Disordered underground caves? ”

When Fifth Master Zha heard me ask him about the way out, he smiled bitterly and said, "The underground karst caves are interlocking and intricate, and they are all naturally formed. What can I do. The next step can only be taken one step at a time, it all depends on God's arrangement. ”

I know that it is hopeless to say more, and now this situation has to be resigned to fate.

When you have a hard time, you first think it's okay. There will always be a way out. But when you encounter difficulties and bad luck. You will find that the difficulties you face are only the tip of the iceberg, and the difficulties in front of you will snowball and get bigger and bigger, and finally weigh down on you like a thousand stones, leaving you breathless.

The members of the Western Expedition were mentally prepared and decided to resign themselves to fate, choose a random cave to drill into, and then continue to march. As a result, we are ready to go. Standing in front of the cave group that looks like a honeycomb plane, an accident happens.

Someone suddenly made a sharp discovery. In the cave as black as a honeycomb hole in the heights, it seems that the figure of a person flashes by.

At first, everyone thought that he was dazzled, and after staying in a dim place for a long time, it was inevitable that he would see ghosts, and he didn't care. As a result, when everyone just wanted to move forward, more people were surprised to find that there were indeed human figures shaking in the honeycomb hole-like cave overhead. Someone couldn't help but be curious, so he shouted to the high place above his head, "Who is there?" ”

Everyone can now be very sure that in the honeycomb hole-like cave above, there are figures crawling in and out, but because the light is dim and unclear, it is impossible to see who is crawling out of the many honeycomb-like caves?

Out of curiosity, I raised my flashlight and looked up to take a closer look, which caused me to gasp. Because I found that the reason why we saw the blurred black figures was not because of the unknown light, but because the black figures were originally black.

In the honeycomb lava cave overhead, there are countless figures crawling in and out, each figure is as black as charcoal, as if it has been thrown into the fire and burned, and the person who is as black as charcoal is like a spider in the honeycomb cave in the sky, and it is not human to be able to shuttle on the rock wall like this.

Seeing this strange situation, I immediately turned off the flashlight, creatures that have lived underground for a long time are especially sensitive to light, and their sense of hearing will be different from ordinary people's sensitivity.

In the darkness, I bent my waist and told everyone not to make a sound, and then pulled the fat man next to me and quietly retreated backwards.

The others didn't see what the black shadow on the top was, but when they saw that I looked nervous, as if I was facing a great enemy, they could guess that the black shadow in the honeycomb cave above was not of the same kind.

Everyone held their breath and moved back lightly, and suddenly, the accident still happened.

Because the cave was dark and damp, and it was completely impossible to see the road under his feet, I don't know who slipped the soles of his feet and fell heavily on the ground. Originally, the sound of the silent space where a pin could be heard could be heard, and such a sound suddenly alarmed the dark shadows in the honeycomb cave.

I only felt a gust of wind rushing down from mid-air, and the next moment I saw the person who fell to the ground, and suddenly the whole body was on fire, and it burned violently, and then the body immediately turned black, and then the skin produced cracks like cracks in the earth, and a dark red liquid like magma was clearly visible in the cracks, and in an instant, a living person turned into a pitch-black coke, and finally only a pile of ashes was scattered in place.

The person who fell to the ground was burned from the body, and finally turned into a pile of ashes, the whole process took about three seconds, I didn't see his appearance clearly, and he didn't even have time to scream, he was burned into a pile of ashes, this must be how many degrees of heat, in order to burn people into a pile of ashes in an instant, not even a bit of bone residue left.

Suddenly, there was a scream of "Mom" from beside me, and then someone ran forward without a single breath and rushed into the honeycomb-like cave in front of me.

In the darkness, this exclamation startled me coldly, and when I came back to my senses, I didn't care what had just struck us, and immediately rushed forward, because the exclamation was made by the fat man, who carried the rain on his back, and rushed directly into the honeycomb nest-like cave.

As I ran in the dark, I said to myself: This is bad, no matter what happened to us just now, it is definitely a ruthless character that we can't deal with. The fat man recklessly went straight to their lair, which is not the same as throwing himself into the net and seeking a dead end.

I can't comprehend the death process I saw in a split second, even if the crematorium burned the corpse in the heat, it was impossible to burn a person to a pile of ashes in three seconds, and there was nothing more terrifying than the unknown fear that this unknown danger brings.

The fat man was short-tempered, arrogant and unreasonable, and he was not convinced by anyone, but he was very afraid of such unknown things as ghosts and gods. When the horrific death happened, his mind was hot, and he rushed directly to the honeycomb cave in front of him in a panic with the rain on his back.

I saw that the fat man had run away, and it was too late to stop him, so I had to chase his figure and rush into the cave in front of me.

Due to the suddenness of the incident, the chaos of the scene, and the darkness around me, I wanted to inform the people around me, but the conditions did not allow it. As a result, I just got out of the group, spread my legs and chased the fat man in front of me.

In the process of chasing, I recalled what attacked the Western Expedition in an instant, and although I didn't see it clearly, it was definitely a strange crawling black shadow in the honeycomb cave. I'm pretty sure that the thing wasn't human, it was a rice dumpling. As for what kind of zongzi it is, it is really unheard of and unseen.

The dumplings crawling in and out of the honeycomb lava cave are as black as charcoal and skinny, as if they have been burned by fire more than a hundred times. But judging from the attack just now, they are obviously agile, and they can move freely like apes on the cliffs, think about it, there is no description similar to the black shadow zongzi in the known creatures and zongzi, I don't know how they were formed, and I don't know what to call them?

Since they are like black ghosts, I think it would be more appropriate to call them "". Thinking of this, I couldn't help but curse myself in my heart: At this juncture, I am still full of sorghum flowers, thinking about what name to give to the zongzi? How big my unobtrusive heart must be!

The ground in the honeycomb cave was full of potholes and stagnant water, and if I was not careful, I would slip and fall, and I poured all my strength and energy into my feet, running out of breath, or not catching up with the footsteps of the fat man in front of me.

At this moment, there was the sound of footsteps behind me, and the light of a beating flashlight, and I knew that the other personnel were chasing after me, so I hurriedly turned back to check, and wanted to take the opportunity to stop and rest.

I waved my arms at the crowd with a smile on my face, and I saw the playboy running at the front, waving at me and shouting, "Hi, brother"

As soon as I wanted to greet him warmly, I realized that his waving arms were not greeting me, but urging me to run. For I immediately heard the playboy shout, "Run," and then I saw behind them a group of black, thin figures, shriveled to the point that every rib was visible, swaying their arms and chasing after them with a very uncoordinated but very fast pace.

There are also coke rice dumplings, which bend their arms and legs on the ground, and climb quickly on the wall like spiders with their hands and feet.

Seeing such a terrifying scene, my scalp was tingling, and the joy of reunion was like a withered dandelion, floating in the wind. (To be continued......)
