Chapter 62: The Muddy Rising to the Sky
Lantern Xiao thought for a while and waved his hand at us, "Let's go, go to the edge of the bushes, let's take a look again, maybe I'm wrong." ”
So, the three of us hunched over and cautiously came to the periphery of this bush. I lifted the branch in front of me and looked out, and I saw that the strange fish that were still writhing in the mud just now were no longer visible, but I could still hear from the distant sound that they had not disappeared, but had just gone away.
The moonlight made the swamp take on a mysterious silvery white, and the shadows of the trees in the distance were mottled, and it seemed that huge monsters were standing there.
I turned my head to look at Lantern Festival, and he also identified the location through some branches and leaves in front of him, and then pointed in one direction and said to us, "Look, it's in that position!" ”
We quickly looked in the direction he pointed, and sure enough, we saw a small green lamp hanging in the swamp at that location, high above the ground.
I couldn't help but be stunned when I saw this situation, looking at the size of the lamp, it was mostly like a horse lantern. However, a horse lantern will never have a green flame, unless it is a green electric lamp, but the possibility of an electric light appearing in this place is even less likely than that of a horse lantern lighting a green flame.
Anador looked at it for a while and said, "Could it be a little phosphorus fire?" ”
I shook my head, "Phosphorus fire is produced by phosphine combustion, although the bare bones can decompose and react with the air to produce phosphine, but the air humidity here is so high, and the temperature is very low now, so even if there is phosphine, it can't float at this time, and the temperature is so low that it is difficult for them to burn." ”
Lantern Xiao looked at the green fire in the distance and said softly: "Could it be that it is really haunted?" ”
Although I don't quite agree with the claim that the Lantern Festival is haunted, how can I explain this situation now?
The three of us were silent for a while, and I looked at the green light in front of me, because the distance was relatively long, and the degree of moonlight illumination was really limited. So we couldn't see exactly what that position was like. Suddenly, I vaguely noticed that there were some reflections of scales on the ground around the green light, and there were many of them.
I suddenly realized that it seemed that all those strange fish just now were all surrounding the green light!
I can't help but wonder, what the hell is that place? Just thinking about it, in the blink of an eye, the green light in the distance was gone.
Lantern Xiao said in surprise: "Hey! Why is the little green flame gone!! Extinguished? ”
We were wondering, and suddenly, we heard a huge sound in the distance, and we hurried to follow the sound, and found that there was a huge thing rising into the sky at the moment where it was still a green fire, but because of the distance and light, I couldn't see what it was!
Anador gasped, "Oh my God, what the hell is that?" ”
However, after the thing flew up, it quickly fell back to the ground, and quickly hidden, and soon it was not found.
Lantern Xiao blurted out in shock, "What kind of monster is that?" ”
No one could answer, but there was still some way to go, but we still didn't take it lightly.
I turned to Anaduo and Lantern Xiao next to me and said, "I think we should take this opportunity to get out of here quickly, otherwise there will really be something unexpected for a while, but then we can't leave even if we want to!" ”
Anador asked, "But where are we going?" ”
I still pointed to the dense tree I just mentioned, "Let's go to that position, as long as we can climb the tree, I think we can avoid the risk in the swamp, and we should be safe for the time being." ”
To my proposal, both Lantern Xiao and Anador nodded in agreement.
Just as we turned to leave, all of a sudden, the thing came out of the ground again, and this time there was more than one. One by one, these things burst out of the ground and began to move rapidly in our direction.
However, this time we can also see clearly, what is rushing out of the ground is not a monster at all, but a stream of mud that rises into the sky.
But it's even more terrifying, as if there's something beneath the ground, breaking through the ground and approaching us.
Lantern Xiao suddenly jumped up and shouted, "Run!" With that, he got up from the bushes and ran in the direction of the big tree in the distance.
I pulled up Anado, who had not yet recovered her senses, and pushed her towards the Lantern Festival, shouting, "Run!" Anado nodded in a panic, and chased in the direction of the Lantern Festival.
As we ran forward, we heard the sound of a large amount of mud rushing out from under the ground behind us.
I followed at the back of the line, and after running for some distance, I gradually noticed that the sound behind me had become a little quieter.
Thinking of this, I subconsciously glanced back, only to find that a series of spurting mud did not chase in the direction we fled, but went straight to the camp where we had just started a fire.
I wanted to remind Lantern Xiao and Anado, who were still running in front of me, but before I could open my mouth, I suddenly stumbled under my feet, and I stumbled and lost my center of gravity.
I finally found my center of gravity and stood firm, so that I wouldn't fall into the mud all at once. But just as I was about to come out of the mire, I suddenly noticed that my feet were hard to pull up, and what frightened me the most was that my body was sinking as I writhed.
"Oops!" I couldn't help but think to myself, I should be stuck in a swamp. In this situation, I immediately stopped moving, because the more I struggled, the faster I sank in.
I opened my throat and shouted for help to Lantern Festival and Anador in front of me. Since the swamp was relatively empty, my voice was loud and spread quickly.
Soon, Lantern Xiao and Anador turned around and came back. As soon as Lantern Xiao saw my situation, she immediately understood, "Damn!" You're not going to be trapped, are you?! ”
At this time, the mud around me has not come to my stomach. I tried not to make any movements, but said to Lantern Xiao with my mouth: "Hurry up and find a way to save me, otherwise I will be buried alive!" ”
