Chapter 49: The Corpse



Originally, if I didn't want to go to this level, I might just go back and choose another blowhole, but now, I can't even move my feet, and I desperately want to prove something.

After a few moments, I endured the stench and reached out and pulled the fat corpse's legs down hard, his bones were already stiff, and it took me a lot of strength to straighten his legs, and I even heard the sound of bones twisting.

Soon, the kneeling corpse was changed to full lying by me, and my hands and hands were almost stained with a thick yellow foul-smelling mucus, I could only distract myself and ignore it, and looked forward with a searchlight, and at first glance, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, because there were no other corpses in front of me.

Then I wondered, why did this corpse die here? Physically, he does not appear to have any other external injuries.

Previously, I couldn't see his face because he was facing me, but now, when I looked up and looked forward, I couldn't help but be stunned because the head of this corpse was missing.

To be exact, it was his head, like an ostrich, that plunged into the ground.

In front of him, the kind of goo was more and black, blending with the reef, and if you didn't look closely, you might not be able to find it at all, and at this moment, this corpse, that's it, stuck its head into the goo, and at first glance, thought that his head was gone.

Although I am very curious, why did this man do this before he died, but curiosity kills cats, I have experienced it well over the years, and this fight, not to satisfy curiosity, but to save people.

I just hesitated slightly, then suppressed my curiosity, ready to retreat, since the stuffy oil bottle they are not taking this road, then I go further, it is not interesting, who knows that when I took a few steps back, my foot suddenly hit a hard thing, I subconsciously pedaled, the texture is very similar to a stone, but I know very well, behind me is a passage.

I knew that things had changed, so I immediately turned my head to look back, and when I saw it, I immediately felt the urge to scold my mother, because the passage behind me, I don't know when, actually disappeared.

Not bad, gone.

I've only encountered this kind of thing once in my life, and it was made by Milota of Banai, but there is obviously no Milota here.

I kicked my leg again, still kicking the hard rock, and even kicking my ankle with a faint pain.

Immediately after that, another word came to my mind, ghost hitting the wall.

Could it be that this kind of thing that ordinary people can hardly encounter in their lives has been caught up with by me again? Although it is said that there will always be ghosts when walking too much at night, and there will always be brown when there are too many fights, but are there too many zongzi I have encountered?

And what's not good to play, I have to hit the wall, but fortunately I didn't bring a candle, otherwise, wouldn't it blow the lamp by the way?

However, if it is a ghost hitting the wall, then where are the zongzi?

I subconsciously looked at the corpse, could it be him?

The intestines are rotten out, and the corpse should not be able to get up, is it a soft dumpling?

After thinking about it, I found that I didn't have much equipment to deal with zongzi in my salvage bag, but there was a black donkey's hoof, but that thing, against soft zongzi, I'm afraid it was enough to choke. I said in my heart, could it be that I touched his ass just now, this fat dumpling is not happy?

Over the years, I have encountered a lot of things, for a while there is no feeling of fear, I can communicate with the zongzi I have not encountered, so I took out a pack of yellow crane tower from the salvage bag, inserted three cigarettes on the light, and said: "Brother, I didn't mean to offend just now, I just came to save people, you died here, I deeply regret it, after going back, I will definitely comfort your family, you can rest assured." After saying that, I waited for a while, and then turned my head to see that there was still a stone wall behind me.

I felt a little bottomless in my heart, and I couldn't help but look at the corpse again, and I was stunned for a moment, because the corpse that had buried its head in the mud didn't know when, his head actually popped up.

The head and face were full of black goo, and in the goo, there were faint yellow old maggots rolling, and at this moment, the face was facing me.

The cold hairs on my back stood up, and my heart said that I just wanted you to open the door, and I didn't let you show your face?

I kept shrinking back, and because of the cramped space, I could only shrink into a ball, and I took out the dagger in my hand, and looked at the dirty, rotten face, the air in the cave was very muddy and full of foul smell, if it weren't for the critical situation at the moment, I would probably vomit it directly.

I looked at that face for more than ten minutes, and I thought something else was going to happen next, but nothing happened, and almost nothing changed except that the hole behind me was still not revealed.

After a long time, I couldn't hold it anymore, it could stay there forever, I couldn't stay here for the rest of my life, and finally, after taking a deep breath, I started to crawl forward.

Although I know that the black donkey's hooves are poured with the blood of a child, and they can shine into soft rice dumplings, but what about after they are revealed? Shall I pounce on it and choke its neck? I don't have the ability to stuffy oil bottles, nor am I a Taoist priest who exorcises ghosts, and at this time, I find myself unexpectedly unthinkable.

Since you can't beat the zongzi, you can only go around, there is no equipment around this person, that is, his equipment is likely to be taken away by his companions after death, perhaps, his companions are also moving forward.

Of course, there is also a second possibility, that is, he also disappeared with his companions, because something happened to him, and he died here alone.

Obviously, this blomata is not safe, at least this fat man, looking at the body size, is not easy to provoke.

I settled my mind, silently recited reassuring words like don't blame, and slowly crawled over his body, a process I don't want to repeat, because it was really not a good experience.

When I crawled over, the fat corpse still hadn't changed, and the hole hadn't been exposed, but nothing worse had happened.

So I plan to continue to climb forward, go down, maybe follow the footsteps of the second uncle and them, or maybe we will be completely separated from them in the stuffy oil bottle, or maybe in the process of staggering the pores, we will meet again, these are uncertain, all of them are risky, but I can't wait here and sit still.

The space in the back was a little larger, like a thrombosis, with a bulge in the middle, barely enough to sit up, but I had to keep my head down, so I simply continued to crawl, while crawling, I kept an eye on the movement behind me, for fear that the 'brother' behind me would not be lonely, and suddenly got up to play a crawling game with me.

But after paying attention for a while, I realized that it was still safe, but soon, I understood why it was so peaceful, because there was no road ahead, and this air tunnel was completely at an end.

I don't know how to describe my feelings, there is an illusion of being played, I don't give up, I touch it with my hands as well, but the hard and cold touch tells me that this is a real reef.

However, such a situation is almost impossible to exist.

The formation of the internal pores of the reef is mostly due to the pressure generated during the geological movement, so that the inside of the reef forms a hollow zone, according to the different shapes of the reef, the hollow zone formed inside, the size and length will be different, but in any case, in order to be pressurized, there must be two exhaust outlets, in other words, there must be two outlets, just like a water pipe.

And this kind of egg-like sealed structure cannot exist, unless there is a large migration of species in Milota in Guangxi.

I stayed far away, and the more I thought about it, the more I felt a little cold sweat, and when I thought back to everything before, I realized that this whole thing was like a conspiracy, as if something was arranging and leading me into a dead end.

First for no reason, then the corpse, then this strange cave.

I suddenly had some doubts about whether it was the soft zongzi that was making trouble, and if it was, then what did it want to do? Pull me to accompany the funeral?

The corpse was still in the previous position, because I climbed in front of him, so at this moment, it seemed that his head was looking back, leaving me only a top of the head, I could hardly think of any way, after more than ten minutes, I could only grit my teeth, and my heart said that death is death, and I will take a picture of the zongzi first.

Immediately, I found out the black donkey's hooves in the salvage bag, this thing is only prepared, after all, the water is not as good as on land, the things that can be carried are very limited, this black donkey hooves, I and the fat man are carrying, when I jumped into the sea, I didn't throw it down, at this moment it should be in use.

I was covered in blood, and I couldn't cut new wounds, but in order to cope with the fierce battle that might ensue, I first treated the wounds on my body briefly before burning the black donkey's hooves, bandaged large areas, and then replenished food and water, and when my body was in the best condition, I set the bloody black donkey's hooves on fire.

The donkey's hooves are not easy to burn, but I don't know if it is the reason for the blood, the outside of the black hooves, wrapped in a layer of faint orange-red flames, as if it will be extinguished at any time, my whole nerves are stretched into a string, pinching the burning black donkey hooves, with the orange-red light, carefully looking at every corner of the cave.

There were no soft rice dumplings to be seen, and there was nothing more in the cave except for some light changes in color.

The corpse was still quiet, but the rotting face, in the orange light, seemed to reveal a kind of blood.

I barely stared at it for a long time, without any movement, until the black donkey's hooves burned out, and the strange feeling disappeared.

I subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, and when I reacted, I realized that I had unconsciously broken out in a cold sweat. In the days that followed, I tried almost everything I could, and I made countless assumptions about the situation at hand, but in the end, I only came up with three solid assumptions.

First: It's still a soft zongzi messing around, but this zongzi is more powerful, and the black donkey's hooves can't shine out.

Second: Guangxi's Milota has moved, or maybe here, there are some creatures similar to Milota who are doing trouble.

Thirdly, none of the above situations are the same, and what I am experiencing is a completely new crisis.

These three assumptions tossed and turned in my mind, but I couldn't react to any of them, and in the darkness, the searchlight in my hand gave out a three-level warning light.

This kind of searchlight has reserve electricity, a total of three warning lights are set up, when the three warning lights are on at the same time, it means that the remaining power can be maintained for 30 minutes, when the two early warning lights are on, it means that the power can be maintained for 20 minutes, and so on, that is to say, the power of this searchlight can only be maintained for 30 minutes at most, and then there will be no power.

In order to save power, I had to turn off the searchlight, huddle in a corner, try to stay away from the corpse, and think about how to get out in the dark.

There is so little space for activity here that I can't do it even if I want to dig a hole in the ground, and besides, I don't have the tools to make a hole at all.

In the dark, the cavern was full of the stench of decay, and I didn't know how long I had been thinking about it, and my mind felt like it was about to explode, and it was in this rigid form that I suddenly noticed something was wrong.

Wrong!

There is not a lot of space here, why hasn't the air run out yet?
