Ouyang Yi didn't answer me directly, but passed the things in his hand and said, "You guys take a look at what this is first." ”

I got it and looked at it, it was a large transparent piece of plastic sheeting or something, and it was covered with fine lines, I stared at it for a while, and suddenly I understood what it was, and blurted out, "Damn!" This can't be the skin of a giant snake, right!? ”

When Wen Qingshan heard this, he immediately snatched the transparent substance from my hand, looked at it carefully, and said, "That's right! This is indeed a snakeskin, and it is almost identical to the skin of the Black Water Serpent we saw before! This also shows that there was indeed a huge black water snake living in this ghost land, but I don't know what happened, it was smashed into the skull, and the whole head was screwed off. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a deafening roar, perhaps because it was closer, and it sounded louder than before, and it shook my heart.

I thought about something and lowered my voice and said, "You said it was the one who killed the serpent that was roaring?" ”

Long Yi said: "Isn't it just a mandrill, no matter how fierce it is, in front of such a huge snake, it is estimated that there is no power to fight back." ”

When I thought about it, this roar sounded almost the same as the sound made by the previous mandrills, only more majestic, so at best, it was a strong mandrill, and no matter how it was, it probably couldn't be the match for the giant black water snake. But if it's not a mandrill, what kind of monster would it be that kills the serpent?

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh: "Damn, what the hell is this place, how can there be so many monsters?" ”

Wen Qingshan also felt very puzzled, he said: "After all, the space in here is so big, and it is a closed environment, there is no complete food chain, what can this black water snake grow so big by eating?" ”

The speaker had no intention, but listened with a heart, Long Yi heard what Wen Qingshan said, and suddenly seemed to think of something, he suddenly turned his head and said, "You say, will this staircase lead directly to the Yin and Evil Land?" ”

His speculation was very bold, and everyone was shocked for a while, and after a while, Wen Qingshan frowned and said, "I don't rule out this possibility." ”

I didn't expect Wen Qingshan to agree with Long Yi's statement, and I couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Boss Wen, you think so too?" ”

Wen Qingshan asked me rhetorically, "Do you remember when I told you a story about Heishui?" ”

"Of course I do! You said that the black water is an underground river that really exists, and it is precisely in order to adapt to the cold environment of the black water that the black water snake will become quite large. ”

Wen Qingshan nodded: "Not only that! I also said that the black water is most likely the legendary river Styx that leads to hell, and the so-called hell may also exist in the real world, which is what we call the place of yin and evil. According to ancient texts, there are many places in the world where you can enter the land of black water, and this may be one of the entrances. ”

Wen Qingshan's words aroused Ouyang Yi's interest, and he immediately asked, "Mr. Wen, where is the black water you are talking about?" ”

Wen Qingshan smiled and said, "I'm just guessing that Heishui is a real underground giant river based on the records of relevant ancient books, and this river is very likely to lead to the Yin and Evil Land, as for where it is, I don't know." ”

"Blackwater...... Underground River ......" Ouyang Yi muttered a few words, and suddenly turned his head to Long Yi and said, "After you go back, immediately retrieve relevant information about domestic groundwater resources!" ”

Long nodded, and then asked, "Dr. Ouyang, then shall we go down?" ”

"Of course! I'd like to see where this staircase leads! After Ouyang Yi finished speaking, he led everyone to continue walking. As we went deeper, I noticed that the temperature seemed to be getting colder and colder, and every now and then a dark wind blew in, which made people feel chills.

The group walked down the stone steps for a few minutes, Ouyang Yi paused again, I thought he had seen something again, raised his head and looked forward, only to find that we had reached the end of the stone steps, directly in front of it, there was an arched corridor about two meters wide, twenty or thirty meters deep, and the end of the corridor was pitch black, and I didn't know where it led.

Inside this corridor, there is a thin layer of mist, which looks mysterious and eerie.

"What the fuck is this place? How...... It's like an ice cellar! Weizi actually shuddered when he spoke.

I turned my head to look and saw that the automatic rifle in his hand had a layer of hoarfrost on it.

Ouyang Yi frowned and said, "It's so cold down here, in my opinion, it's very likely that the evil stone is hidden inside." After saying that, he twisted the cane in his hand, and the tip of the cane immediately lit up red. He raised his cane and walked slowly down the corridor.

Because they didn't know what was at the end of the corridor, everyone was very careful along the way, not daring to walk too fast, and not daring to walk too heavy, for fear of alarming the monsters hiding underneath.

However, we walked for more than a minute on the twenty or thirty-meter-long corridor before we finally reached the end of the corridor.

In front of us is a cave hall that can barely see the end, and in the cave hall, there is a huge underground lake, how wide this lake is, we have no way of knowing, because the lake is filled with a hazy mist, so that we can't see the other end of the lake at all, on the lake surface about ten meters away from the shore of the lake, faintly visible a slightly protruding lake, just like a pot lid like a round "island", of course, said to be an island, in fact, it is a platform with a diameter of about three or four meters, the platform is quite standardized round, It doesn't look like it was made naturally, it looks like it was made by man.

After being stunned for a while, Ouyang Yi said in a daze: "Could it be that this ghost place is really the land of black water!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, suddenly there was a roar from above our heads, everyone was startled, and hurriedly looked up, only to find that on the top of the cave hall nearly 20 meters high, it was covered with stalagmites of different thicknesses, some stalagmites were even more than four or five meters in diameter, and they were more than ten meters long when they hung down.

Everyone looked around, but they didn't find the roaring monster, and of course, a little farther away due to the limitations of the light, it was impossible to see too closely, maybe the monster was hiding in some dark corner, and was now watching our every move.

Wen Qingshan stared at the top of the cave for a while and said, "I know what's going on!" ”

"What's going on?" I asked.

Wen Qingshan pointed his hand at the top of the cave and asked, "What do you see on the top of the cave?" ”

I looked up and said, "Isn't it stalagmite, it's a cave, and it's normal to have stalagmites......"

Before I finished speaking, Wen Qingshan interrupted me: "No! No! I mean, what else is there besides stalagmites? ”

"What else?" I was slightly stunned, and then stared at the top of the cave for a while, only to find that between some stalagmites and stalagmites, there seem to be some cave openings, and some of the cave entrances are not small, with a diameter of more than several meters, which looks like a monster's blood basin mouth, and the stalagmites around the cave entrance are like sharp fangs, which makes people shudder.

"Boss Wen, could it be that you mean those cave mouths?"

Wen Qingshan nodded and said, "This place is almost thirty meters deep underground, and the height of this cave roof is about twenty meters, so the top of the cave should be the mausoleum." It can be inferred from this that these large and small cave entrances are most likely the hiding places of those mandrills! ”

It dawned on me: "No wonder the sound came from the top of the cave, it turned out to be the lair of the mandrill!" ”

Wen Qingshan continued: "It is possible that the shape of those cave entrances has the effect of amplifying the sound, so the roar we heard before will give people a deafening feeling. Maybe it's just an ordinary mandrill hiding inside. ”

After listening to Wen Qingshan's analysis, Ouyang Yi said approvingly: "Mr. Wen is still meticulously observant, in my opinion, it should be like this." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, I suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a huge black shadow above the top of the cave passing between the two huge stalagmites at a very fast speed, the diameter of the two stalagmites was more than two meters, and the black shadow seemed to be much larger than the two stalagmites, and I don't know what it was! I looked closer, but I saw nothing.

I hurriedly asked the others, "Did you see anything on the roof of the cave just now!?" ”

Wen Qingshan immediately raised his head and looked around, but he didn't see anything, he turned his head and asked me, "Shi Yu, what did you see just now?" ”

"I didn't know what it was, but it was as if I saw a huge black shadow flashing by. But maybe I'm dazzled. "Because no one else saw it, I couldn't help but doubt myself. After all, it is common to see dazzling eyes. Especially if it happens suddenly.

Wen Qingshan frowned and said, "Everyone had better be careful, this ghost place is a little weird. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Long Yi on the side said: "The oxygen content down here is quite high, and you can breathe very smoothly, but there is a strange smell in the air." ”

I turned my head to look, and it turned out that the dragon had taken off the oxygen mask.

Everyone took off their masks, and I tried to take a breath of air, and immediately a faint smell mixed with a fishy smell came to my nose.
