103. Attacked
Qi Jue watched Hao Dong and Bai Xing's chickens and ducks talk for ten seconds, and made a decisive decision: "Let's go to the middle first, the signal interference there seems to be better." β
The communicator on the diving suit was useless, but Qi Jue had just discovered that in the middle of the room in this circle, their mobile phones could still have a signal that appeared and disappeared from time to time. If you're lucky, at least send a text message.
Hao Dong was very obedient, and when Xiao Qi Ye said this, he obeyed directly, and instructed Bai Xing: "Follow quickly." β
In his subconscious, Shirahoshi didn't leave him, no one touched the mechanism above, so the structure of the room here shouldn't change again.
Getting out of the house will certainly require a large labyrinth, but in any case it is better than a huge structure that will change its structure at any time.
Unfortunately, Hao Dong soon realized that his thoughts were too naΓ―ve, and almost at the same time as they stepped out of the kitchen, the low rumbling sound sounded again.
This time, Hao Dong's feet were empty, and he found that he was going down as if he was taking an elevator, and the kitchen door behind him quickly moved up. The big iron door that had been pinched by Qi Jue and deformed on both sides did not move with it, but slid down to the next floor with Hao Dong and them.
Hao Dong was really surprised, he thought that the room here could only rotate, but he didn't expect it to be able to move up and down?
But before he could figure it out, Shirahoshi's claws had already grabbed his wrist, as if they wanted to run away with him.
Qi Jue's movements were faster than Bai Xing's, and he had already directly snatched the helmet from Hao Dong's hand and buckled it for him: "Put it on!" β
At the same time, he quickly put on his helmet himself, because with his more sensitive hearing than ordinary people, he had noticed that there were many small creatures approaching nearby.
If you want to talk about what you are most afraid of encountering in an expedition, fierce beasts such as tigers and lions are certainly terrifying, but because they are often exclusive, and an area can be just one or two, it is not the most difficult to deal with.
As long as you have enough experience or courage enough, and you will not act rashly, let alone defeat, at least the possibility of escaping is still very high.
But if it's a group of things, it's hard to do. For example, wolves that have been hungry for a winter on the grassland, unless they are really fatal, even experienced hunters are easy to die.
But wolves or jackals and the like, if the besieged people are very brave, then it is not impossible to fight a bloody way to escape death.
Qi Jue was "tested" by his family like this back then, and as a result, he relied on a firewood knife to kill a full twenty-one wild wolves that had been hungry for three days in one night, and when he escaped, the firewood knife had already rolled up.
But even if he is as brave as him, there is something to be afraid of, that is, swarms of insects.
Whether it's an insect or not, whether it's flying in the sky or running on the ground, if you encounter a swarm of insects, it's best to avoid them before they appear.
Not to mention the agility and mobility of these little things, and the toxicity that they may carry, but their fear of death is enough to make people frightened.
Bugs don't have a very advanced nervous system, they just rush forward. While some bugs die with a smell that makes their own kind of people avoid them, more of them attract more of their own kind to destroy their "enemies".
They don't have the concept of life and death, they just instinct. When encountering "enemies", whether they are real enemies or imaginary ones, they will stubbornly rush forward and back, and they will not give up if they do not kill the enemy.
Even wolves will be vigilant when too many of their kind die, and will no longer approach easily, but the bugs will never have deserters on the battlefield unless they encounter something that instinctively makes them retreat.
The voices Qi Jue heard were still a little far away from here for the time being, but those voices were moving fast, and it was estimated that it would not take long to reach their location. And most importantly, it sounds like the sound of countless insect feet crawling.
Qi Jue couldn't tell what type of bug it was, but he knew that the number must be very staggering.
With such a large-scale insect tide, it is almost impossible to fight hard, and they can only quickly find a place to avoid these insects first. And their diving suits are the best that Zhao Zheng can get, with first-class protection, and they should be able to help them when they have to face those terrifying little guys.
Bai Xing kept dragging Hao Dong's wrist - fortunately, Hao Dong's diving suit was put on again after getting them cakes, otherwise he would definitely not be able to put on the diving suit properly if he was caught like this - but it didn't move.
Its eyes that glowed green in the dark stared at one place tightly, and Qi Jue soon discovered that it was the direction from which the sound came from.
Then he quickly understood why Shirahoshi didn't move.
I thought it would be the same as the first few floors, with a circular area in the middle, surrounded by a circle of room doors. So no matter what was behind that door, Qi Jue had already made up his mind to hide in one of the rooms at random first.
But in fact, the walls around this floor are very clean, and there are no doors leading to the other rooms!
The only way to hear the sound is that there is a hole in the wall about 10 centimeters high and about a meter wide, which looks like a passage specially opened for those insects.
Qi Jue was like a great enemy at this moment, and all kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind.
This space is all metal, and there is a big hole in the wall, so the ventilation and oxygen supply here should be fine. If it really doesn't work, he still has a powerful lighter on him, and he should be able to use it to some extent.
If you just set it on fire, make sure you don't burn your own people......
Just as they were thinking about how to keep the fire from spreading to themselves, Qi Jue's ears finally made out another sound: the sound of water!
The amount of water should not be much, and when it flows, it is silent, and it is almost muffled by the dense and clear sound of crawling insects. It was at this moment that he finally noticed.
But if there is water, then the plan to set the fire just now is completely unfeasible.
Qi Jue only felt that his scalp was numb for a while, and he couldn't think of a good way.
Hao Dong didn't know what was going on at first, but as time went on, he gradually heard the sound of the patches of Si Si Suosuo. The voice was so representative that he didn't have time to feel despair, and he felt absurd first.
A day ago, he was packing his bags in front of a small hotel in Xining, and twelve hours ago he was still marveling at the beauty of the plateau, even if he later fell to the bottom of Qinghai Lake, and finally had a safe environment that at least seemed safe.
However, it was only an hour's work, how could he be in danger?
This feeling was too unreal, until the water flowed out of the mouth with the contents of the water, Hao Dong couldn't fully adjust his mentality.
However, the emergence of a crisis will not wait for you to be ready, and as soon as those things appear, they will see clearly, and it turns out that it is a water spider the size of a fist.
Water spiders have very strict requirements for living conditions, and now that the degree of industrialization is severe and the pollution is serious, the water spider is almost all about to disappear.
At first glance, seeing that there were so many at once, and they were so big, Hao Dong's first reaction was: If there is a biologist here, then it will be too happy!
Qi definitely didn't have his leisure, he had been waiting for him for a long time, and when he saw the appearance of those things, he felt his scalp tingle.
The water spider is generally very small, and it has been dragging a huge blister, which looks actually quite small and exquisite, and it is very ornamental.
But the smallest of these water spiders that appeared in front of them was the size of a baby's fist, and the largest was almost the size of an adult woman's fist.
You must know that these aquatic creatures are not vegetarians, and now that they have grown to such a large size, the pair of huge chela and mouthparts that can be seen without tools are vivid, all of which remind humans that they are not easy to deal with.
And they seem to have a certain amount of wisdom, and after the water flows in, they are not in a hurry to attack Hao Dong and them who are standing in the middle, but start to build a net around them. There is a great posture of cobwebs to surround them and catch them all in one go.
Hao Dong felt that his scalp had exploded, and his dense phobia had also attacked, and he couldn't wait to close his eyes and jump out immediately.
However, he really didn't dare to close his eyes in this state, and there was no way to make him jump out immediately. So he could only hold on, and the blood on his face had faded clean.
Qi Jue also discovered that something was wrong with him, and knew that he couldn't delay here for long, but there was no way out. In the end, he pulled out the deception and slowly approached the only opening.
Anyway, a dead horse is a live horse doctor, if it doesn't work, let's try to see if the deception can cut the hole and open a passage!
And when Qi Jue wanted to try to escape, Hao Dong took out his small bronze mirror tremblingly: "God, please let us out quickly!" β
