Chapter 37: Underwater Spots
Chapter XXXVII
————————————————————————————————————————
Shekou Cave is not big on the outside, but it is unusually deep inside. Ryazan and Gao Peng hesitated at the entrance of the cave for a while, because they were afraid that if the cave was not deep, then they might encounter the mountain boys directly. But this fear was quickly dispelled by the reality in front of him.
The surface of the water did not reach the thighs of Ryazan and Gao Peng, and the two of them walked towards the Shekou cave one after the other.
About ten minutes later, Chen Bing used the walkie-talkie to communicate with Ryazan for the first time, only to hear him ask quite kindly at the walkie-talkie: "Brother Ryazan, is there no situation?" ”
Ryazan's reply was very fast, and he said, "Captain Chen, thanks to your Hongfu, everything is fine." ”
"Notify me immediately if something happens." Chen Bing said.
"That's for sure." Ryazan replied.
At this time, the sky was clear, the sun was very abundant, everyone was guarding the river bank at the entrance of the cave, Chen Bing and others began to pack their luggage, the young man named Shu Jingcheng took out a thick book from his backpack, the book had been soaked in the rain for the past few days, and became crumpled, Shu Jingcheng spread them on the ground to dry.
Old man Yuan was fifty or sixty years old anyway, and the rare rest time made him lean against a tree and fall asleep. Lewy seems to have always been curious about the dusky water of the river, and has been staying by the river to study. Hong Yi wiping his submachine gun. In this way, it seems that only Chen Bing and I care about Ryazan and Gao Peng in the Shekou cave.
About ten minutes passed, and this time, it was Ryazan who said it first, and he heard the voice of Shalala on the walkie-talkie: "Captain Chen, I have something to remind you." ”
"What?" Chen Bing's whole body suddenly became energetic.
Ryazan said: "Tie your leggings when you come in, there is everything in this water, you have to pay attention." ”
"What's in the water?" Chen Bing asked anxiously.
However, he did not receive an answer, and Ryazan did not say anything.
"Hello?" Chen Bing shouted into the walkie-talkie, "Hey? Feed? Can you hear me? ”
At this time, Ryazan's voice came from the walkie-talkie, a very anxious and deep voice, and said: "Captain Chen, what are you shouting, you want to kill the two of us, don't ......"
Suddenly, before Ryazan finished speaking, he heard Gao Peng's trembling voice coming from the side, the voice was not loud, but it sounded like Gao Peng was very frightened, "It's over, it's here." ”
Immediately, there was a "plop" sound on the walkie-talkie, followed by a loud noise. For a moment, everyone's attention was drawn to this side.
"What's the matter, nothing will happen to them, right?" I said.
Chen Bing waved his hand, he turned off the walkie-talkie, and said, "Don't shout, didn't you hear that he didn't let us make a sound." ”
As soon as I heard this, I immediately closed my mouth. I said in my heart, could it be that Ryazan and Gao Peng met those previous mountain boys in the Shekou cave? I believe that with Ryazan's skills, it should not be a problem to deal with one or two mountain boys, but there are too many mountain boys who entered the Shekou cave just now, and Ryazan may not be their opponent, in addition, he also has to take care of Gao Peng, in case something really happens to him inside, it is really more than lucky. I regret not being able to enter the cave with the two of them.
"Brother Bing, what now? Get in? "Hong Yi is as anxious as ever.
Chen Bing shook his head and said, "Now they haven't been in the cave for a long time, and they don't know the specific situation inside the cave, so they can't go in so rashly." ”
So, we approached the cave again, hoping that there would be some sound coming from the cave so that we could make some judgments. However, the water at the mouth of the Shekou Cave was so loud that it almost drowned out everything else, and we have no way of knowing what happened to Ryazan and Gao Peng inside.
All we could do was wait, but I didn't expect to wait for an hour.
An hour later, Chen Bing's walkie-talkie sounded, only this time the voice became unusually muddy, and I heard Ryazan's voice say, "Hey? Feed? Captain Chen, can you hear me? ”
Captain Chen immediately responded: "I'm Chen Bing, I can hear you." ”
"It's really amazing," Ryazan said, "It's worthy of the equipment given by Captain Chen, and it can still be used after soaking in water for so long." ”
Chen Bing asked, "Are you in any danger inside?" ”
"It's not a danger, it's just a little trouble, you have a gun, this little thing is not to worry about." Ryazan explained.
I originally thought that Chen Bing would continue to ask Ryazan what trouble the two of them were in, but he didn't, probably because he was no longer interested in the type of trouble in his many years of mission, all he cared about was whether the trouble could be effectively solved.
It has been quite a short time since Ryazan and Gao Peng entered the cave, and we are all curious about whether there have been any corresponding changes in their bodies.
Chen Bing asked, "Your body hasn't changed much, right?" ”
"Aside from a minor injury, nothing has changed." Ryazan said: "However, one thing is certain, this is not an old man's cave. ”
Everyone was surprised, but they felt that it was indeed reasonable, so they continued to ask, "Then did you meet the mountain boy in the cave?" ”
Ryazan sighed exaggeratedly, as if deliberately to make us hear, and said: "I don't even see a shadow, and I think it may not be a cave, but a mountain tunnel." ”
"Tunnels?" Chen Bing was a little surprised.
Ryazan said "um" and said: "Although on the whole, this tunnel is completely natural, but in some places, especially when you go inside, you can still see many artificial traces, this tunnel is very long, I estimate that it is possible to walk for two or three days, or, Captain Chen, you come in first?" ”
Chen Bing frowned, he hesitated a little, and turned his head to look at Old Man Yuan, but Eight Thousand Old Dao was still asleep at this time, and did not give him any advice, he thought about it, and finally said: "Then let's go in, you two don't move, stay where you are and wait for us." ”
"Okay, Captain Chen, don't worry." Ryazan said.
Chen Bing responded coldly: "Don't play any tricks with me, don't forget, Fan Peixi is in my hands." ”
Ryazan smirked twice, and then said: "Captain Chen, look at what you said, I'm playing tricks with you, isn't that a big knife in front of Guan Gong." ”
In this way, we sorted out our equipment, woke up Old Man Yuan, and among the group, I, as the only outsider, entered the Shekou cave with Chen Bing and them.
Before entering the cave, Chen Bing carefully tied his leggings again in accordance with Ryazan's previous instructions. Ryazan said that there is everything in this river, so what will there be? My first guess was a bit unreliable, but it was such a natural association, perhaps because of the shadow left by the trip to Yunnan, I instinctively thought that there would be many corpses under the river in the Shekou cave.
In order not to be swept down by the rushing river, our group supported each other and moved from the shore to the mouth of Shekou Cave.
The water of the river, which reached the thighs, was very cold, and as soon as you entered the cave, the turbulent river water calmed down a lot, and a cold and damp air instantly hit your nose.
There was nothing out of the ordinaryness about the cave itself, and I wouldn't have had any interest in it if it weren't for the fact that I had just witnessed two translucent monsters and a group of mountain children burrowing into the cave.
After walking into the cave for about ten minutes, when I looked back, the cave that was not big when I came was now the size of a palm, and the light around me was getting dimmer and dim, Chen Bing and the others turned on the military flashlight.
It's quiet, the terrain is relatively gentle, and the only sound around us is the rattling of the river.
We don't know where Ryazan and Gao Peng are now, Chen Bing tried to ask Ryazan on the walkie-talkie, but Ryazan's answer was unusually concise, he just said: "Just go straight inside." ”
After another ten minutes, suddenly, I heard Hong Yi shouting, "Brother Bing, why do I feel that my two legs are getting more and more itchy? ”
"Itchy?" Chen Bing asked rhetorically.
"Oh, so you feel that way, too." Old man Yuan interjected: "The old man thought it was all an illusion just now. ”
Listening to the two of them, I suddenly felt that my legs were a little itchy, but this itch was not the kind of itch that someone teased and caressed, but more like a local spike feeling, because it was not very painful, and there were leggings separated by it, so it gave people a little itchy feeling.
"Damn, what that kid from Ryazan said is true, there's something in this water." Chen Bing said.
For a while, everyone used their flashlights to shine on the river water under their feet, although Hong Yi was burly, he was not tall, and his legs were short, and the water level of everyone's thighs was already waist-high in him, his face was very nervous, probably afraid that if there was really something in the water, it would hurt his life.
However, the river was so muddy that the light of the military flashlight hit the surface of the water only to see the dim yellow of the water.
Shu Jingcheng pulled out his pistol and loaded it, and Hong Yi and Chen Bing were not slow, but even if they were both good at making guns, they couldn't shoot with their eyes closed.
At this time, out of the corner of my eye, I noticed that in the distant darkness of the river, which was not illuminated by our flashlight, there were many dense fluorescent green dots. I quickly came to my senses and yelled at them, "Turn off the flashlight." ”
Everyone didn't understand what was going on at first, but soon, Chen Bing and Shu Jingcheng also discovered what I had discovered before, and Chen Bing immediately ordered the flashlight to be turned off, that is, at that moment, the entire cave suddenly fell into complete darkness, and the river under our feet was like stars in the sky for a while, and countless small spots of dense fluorescent green color appeared.
