Chapter 25: The Mysterious Cave
At this moment, the rotten meat was burning, and there was no danger in sight, and the one-eyed dragon bent his waist towards the place where he was looking. I looked along and saw that there seemed to be a dark shadow in that place, and I thought to myself, could it be that there is something else?
So I hurriedly followed to look, and when I got closer, I suddenly found that it was four or five red-haired, dog-like and jackal-like animals. At this time, the lazy man said casually: "It's the plateau red jackal, this thing is relatively rare now, and it is a cherished animal." â
Looks like these things should have been taken down by 01 for food. Strangely, however, they were all still intact on the outside, but they had been sitting here for a while, so the corpses appeared a little dry and flat, and the diamond lines of the bones were clear. At the same time, I noticed that something was wrong, that is, behind the tail of the corpse, there seemed to be something dragging on it.
I squatted down to take a closer look, and suddenly I felt that the whole person's scalp was troublesome, and I was afraid for a while. I saw that there was something that had been dried up in the back anus of the corpse, which was obviously the intestines. In order to prove my idea, I reached out and pushed the corpse, and found that the red jackal was very light, and everything inside the body seemed to be gone.
Obviously, this exploding 01 is not as perverted as the main body, and can directly eat meat and chew bones, so it retreats to the next best thing and only eats the internal organs of animals. I was entangled by it just now, and if it wasn't for the lazy rescue, I'm afraid I would have ended up like this red jackal, and was put into the anus by that tentacle, and then pulled out all the internal organs.
That kind of death, just thinking about it is extremely painful, and it is also dishonorable.
The one-eyed dragon and the lazy man obviously understood, and the one-eyed dragon's body shook a little, and said, "The master, it's too dangerous, you have to thank this one, this one...... What's it called? "I know that the lazy man is a Tibetan, but I really don't know his name, and even in the information that Zhen Rui gave me at the beginning, he didn't mention it.
The lazy man obviously didn't intend to answer the question, and his gaze looked beyond the corpse of the red jackal on the ground to the back of the red jackal.
We ignored this place before, and now we found out that behind this, there is a circular hole, this hole is quite large, about two meters in diameter, people can walk in it upright, look at the shape of the edge of the hole, this is like some kind of beast out of the hole.
Still, what beast can punch such a big hole out?
At this time, Hari Chagai, who was lying on the ground, said weakly: "What are you three pestles doing there, when I don't save zĂ i, right?" "He had been carried by the one-eyed dragon on his back, and he fell down and rolled to the rear, and because of his weakness, he was now half-sitting on the ground, looking very annoyed.
The one-eyed dragon rolled his eyes, helped the man over, and said, "I don't know where this hole leads, you say, could it be made by 01?" â
The lazy man returned the knife to the sheath, yawned, and said, "Don't cause trouble that shouldn't be troubled." As he spoke, he looked up, apparently wondering how to get out of the hole. At this time, the fire in the cave has also become weaker, we are now all covered with mud, looking up, the area around the hole is very smooth, the grass that originally grew out of the grip has also been burned, if we want to climb up, there is no position to grip at all, it looks more difficult.
Each of us went to take care of the hole, and experience told me that curiosity kills cats, and things that have nothing to do with our purpose, can we not mix them, or try not to mix them. Therefore, everyone focused on how to get out.
The one-eyed dragon said: "If I knew earlier, we should have brought the ground grab." "The so-called ground grab, is to transform the shoes, the following list of special nail board, specifically to deal with such an environment, when the foot on it, the nail board embedded in the soil layer, can play a fixed role.
However, we have limited manpower, so where would we expect such a situation, and it is naturally impossible to carry all kinds of equipment. After thinking about it, I can only do it myself, prepare to let the lazy man open the way in front, dig some places where I can step on it with a pry, wait for the lazy thing to go up, and then put the rope for us to climb up.
The lazy man was still unambiguous when it was time to do something, and although he was dozing off, his movements were not slow, and he quickly prepared the tools he needed. Just as we were about to act, suddenly, from the cave behind us, a dark wind suddenly blew.
The wind was a little cool, in this early winter season, the excited people trembled, at the same time, the movements in the hands of the lazy man suddenly stopped, the whole person suddenly turned around, stared at the black hole behind him, and said, "Someone." â
Person?
The one-eyed dragon and I were taken aback, and our eyes moved to the entrance of the cave, and all we could see was the darkness inside, and there was no one to be seen.
As he spoke, the lazy man put away his tools, pulled out the knife at his waist, and went straight into the hole. The one-eyed dragon hissed and said, "Hey, is there a little team spirit, just ...... without saying anything" I looked at the back of the lazy man melting into the darkness, interrupted the one-eyed dragon's words, and said, "Don't say anything, follow up and have a look." â
I know that lazy people are more alert than most people, just like the big yellow duck used to say, people are still fighting, and they already know which direction the police are coming from outside. Perhaps, he just heard something that we can't hear?
The lazy man was cruel, but he was not a man who would take risks for no reason, so the one-eyed dragon carried Hari Chagai and I into the cave with me.
The lazy man was not fast, and he was obviously vigilant, observing the caves around him as he walked. We all have miniature searchlights hanging around our waists, but we didn't have time to react before, so we haven't turned them on, but after turning them on now, several rays of light are fused together, and the line of sight is still relatively clear.
I saw the surrounding cave walls, and I could see the scratches one by one, obviously not excavated artificially, but ordinary animals would not make such a big hole at all, so after thinking about it, we only thought of 01, could it be the hole it dug?
The lazy man said that there are people in the cave, I think there are ghosts or not, where will there be living people in this place except us?
This cave is very long, after walking for a while, the trend of the cave began to go up, I recalled the terrain above, and suddenly found that the trend of this cave was actually towards the ruins of the ancient city that we found before.
The route between the two is not too far, but it is only walked by human legs, which is very delayed in the thick meadow, and there is a section of the road up and down the mountain, so when we returned yesterday, we walked from morning to afternoon.
Underground, there was no terrain to get in the way of going up and down, so after two hours of walking, I suspect we were probably close to the bottom of the mountain.
This made the four of us feel extremely artifact, how did such a long hole in the ground come out? If, as I suspected, the cave is likely to lead to the ancient ruins, does that mean that the cave is likely to be man-made?
After walking in it for more than two hours, there were some forks in the cave, and we stopped to investigate, but found that most of those forks ended up in dead ends, with boulders or cave-ins at the end.
After much thought, the one-eyed dragon came to a conclusion, and he reasoned, "You say, it can't be like this. Isn't there a guess in the notebook that 01 is a product left over from an ancient civilization? Could this ancient civilization be the ancient city of silkworm swallowing? It took this hole from the ground of the ancient city of Silkworm Swallowing to make this hole as a shelter? â
If this is the case, then why did such a monster appear in the ancient city of Silkworm Swallowing?
Its bizarre disappearance, could it have something to do with 01?
At this time, Hari Chagai asked another question, and he asked the lazy man at the front suspiciously, "Didn't you just say that there were people?" It's been more than two hours since this was gone, and there's a fart guy? "Along the way, we didn't find any trace of people, where is the person the lazy guy said?
I was also puzzled by this question, so I waited to hear what he would say.
The lazy man has always been the last on weekdays, but at this time he opened the way in front, acted cautiously, and held a black knife, which made me involuntarily think of the dumb man, and I felt quite uncomfortable.
When the lazy man heard this, he said lightly: "It doesn't have to be a person." â
I said, "Zongzi? â
The lazy man nodded.
I'm already numb to the zongzi thing, too, so many people have died in this place, it's strange that there are no zongzi. However, although there are only four of us, Lazy and Hari Chagai are both experts in dealing with zongzi. One of these two people has dzi, and the other is a shaman, if there are really one or two soft zongzi, it is really not a problem.
So I said, "So where is it now?" â
The lazy man said: "You look back." â
Looking back? Fuck, is it possible that the dumplings are behind me? Why didn't this kid say it earlier!
I turned my head suddenly, but it was pitch black behind me, and I couldn't see any zongzi. I know that most of the soft rice dumplings are unfragrant and inconspicuous, so there is no surprise, but I just thought to myself, is the lazy thing playing me? If there are soft zongzi, will Hari Chagai not be able to detect it? I cast a questioning look at Hari Chagai, and found that his expression was a little stern, nodded at me, and then said, "There is a lot of evil in this cave, like a lot of people have died. Strange, there are no bodies here......"
The one-eyed dragon said: "It must have been eaten by 01." â
Hari Chagai's eyes looked around a little strangely, as if he could see something that I and the one-eyed dragon couldn't see, and finally shook his head, saying that if you go a little further, you may be able to find out the real source of 01, if nothing else, this hole is connected to the ruins of the ancient city.
