Chapter 58: Underground Caves

Early this morning, Lin Ye got up early, he first inspected the shallow water, and after confirming that everything was normal, he jumped off the rock platform.

The pontoon swayed, faintly rippling on the water.

At the end of the underground waterway, that is, the underground karst cave. Lin Ye slipped into the clear spring, and the current in the waterway was much larger than before, and the turbulent water was white with fish scales, and crashed against a raised stalactite next to it.

After Lin Ye dug up the rock above his head to drain the sewage from the swamp, the crack was blocked by Lin Ye with a large stone, and now only the waterfall pours down, the shallow water, the underground waterway in the middle, and the underground karst cave below form a three-layer structure. The shallow water is fed by a spring next to him, which together form a circulating stream.

Grabbing a stalactite nearby with his claws, his fingertips buckled into the stone, Lin Ye poked his head out and looked at the bottom of the cave.

With night vision, Lin Ye could barely see how far away the pitch-black underground lake was.

At the feet, maybe dozens of meters away, the dots of yellow light are much more than before, these are lost silver scale fish breeding here, they devour the thousands of children that Lin Ye put in, in just one month, they have grown white and fat, very lively.

Lin Ye had a straw rope wrapped around his waist, although it was not too thick, but it was no problem to drive Lin Ye. The rope was more than thirty meters long, and he tried to drag it, and it was very solid. But Lin Ye was still a little uneasy, he wrapped the end of the straw rope around the stalactites on both sides of the waterway, put it on the stalactites according to the style of "โˆž", and then tied several dead knots, and then took the other end of the rope and carefully jumped down the cave.

First, he threw all the thirty-meter-long ropes down, Lin Ye didn't have his hands to grasp the rope, he could only bite the rope, loosen it little by little, and then slowly descended.

The waterfall above his head kept hitting Lin Ye, and as Lin Ye fell farther away, Lin Ye closed his eyes and suffered the blow of the waterfall. He miscalculated the impact of these currents, and when he descended to ten meters away, the impact of the waterfall was like heavy stones falling on Lin Ye's back. Even a chick that has been trained hard will not be able to bear it.

"Wow!"

Lin Ye's mouth loosened, and the soft straw rope tightened violently after reaching the limit, and Lin Ye's chest was strangled and he almost couldn't breathe.

At this moment, there was only a distance of less than a meter from the lake under his feet, Lin Ye let out a sigh of relaxation, he quickly untied the rope, and then jumped into the lake.

With a plop, Lin Ye's entry into the water immediately attracted the attention of the silver-scaled fish in the underground lake.

Under Lin Ye's feet, several silver-scaled fish seemed to sense that something was about to fall above their heads, and immediately opened their mouths wide. They survive on the food brought by this waterfall, and they have already developed an instinctive reaction, jumping to the bottom of the water and biting at the food that is about to fall.

But at this moment, it was not food that gave them, but a forest night.

These silver-scaled fish are different from those fish outside!

Lin Ye knocked all these silver-scaled fish away with one left and one kick right, and the latter's body twisted and bounced, floating on the surface of the water, and it took several seconds to stop the momentum of being knocked away and sink to the bottom.

These silver-scaled fish with yellow light can't be eaten in one meal, Lin Ye is not in a hurry to eat at the moment, he has more important things to do.

Jumping onto the shore and shaking off his wet feathers, Lin Ye was immediately attracted by a beautiful scenery overhead.

If you look down at the top, you can't see the ceiling of the cave at all. Seeing this, Lin Ye's heart couldn't help but exclaim.

It turned out that overhead was a pale green fluorescent fungus, which faintly fluoresced, forming a beautiful green abstract painting at the top.

"A new species, the fluorescent green mushroom, is discovered, which grows in a dark and damp environment, adsorbing and digesting organic matter that infiltrates the soil. The system's prompt beep sounded in time.

Under the faint fluorescence, Lin Ye also saw some slender strips of black insects with two spikes on their tails, burrowing in and out of fluorescent mushrooms.

"่ ผ่ž‹ [qรบsว’u], an omnivorous insect that feeds on plant flowers, leaves, decaying animal and plant remains, including fluorescent green mushrooms. โ€

As Lin Ye continued to wander in the cave, the system also revealed the creatures living nearby for Lin Ye one by one.

On the wall on the left side of Lin Ye, there are some pale red disc mushrooms, and the mushrooms they grow are like small wine glasses, clustered together, very cute.

Fifty meters away on one side of the cave, there is a hole more than three meters high, which is very inconspicuous in the dark corner, and it seems that it is not naturally formed, but excavated.

Who dug it? Lin Ye's footsteps slowed down and slowly approached the entrance of the cave.

On the surface of the cave, there is some indescribable black liquid, which looks like a lubricating substance secreted by fish. The black liquid was divided around the entrance of the cave, and at the same time continued to extend to the middle, like a radial sign, and as Lin Ye approached, the air was filled with a strange smell that had never been smelled before.

Before he walked more than five meters away, the entrance of the cave was blocked by various mounds of gravel and earth, and only some gaps were left at the top for him to pass through, just enough for Lin Ye's body to squeeze through.

Looking up, the cave wall above was hollow, and these gravel mounds seemed to have collapsed from above, but under Lin Ye's careful observation, he found that these collapsed mounds were actually deliberate, because there was a ventilation hole on the side of the head, which could just accommodate something to pass by.

There was a whining wind through the cracks, and there was air circulation.

It's just that in the sound of the wind, there seems to be some heavy breathing sounds. Right behind this pile of rubble!

Lin Ye's heart was beating rapidly, and he held his breath, carefully flicked a piece of gravel, and threw it at the gap above his head. The gravel flew in an arc and smashed into it, making a dull sound, and the heavy breathing did not respond.

Could it be an illusion? Although Lin Ye thought so in his heart, he still didn't dare to take the risk, and at this moment, the soil on the left wall of the passage suddenly loosened.

In the gloomy cave, a small dinosaur poked its head out of the cave entrance, it had no eyes, and after sniffing, it suddenly smelled Lin Ye who was close at hand, and immediately screamed in fright!

It was not only it that was scared, but also Lin Ye, who had been vigilant!

"Wow!" Lin Ye also screamed, almost kicking the dinosaur.

"Cave dragons, feed on underground insects and plant roots, their eyes are degenerate, and their sense of smell is extremely acute. No threat to the host. โ€

They resemble a miniature version of a humpback whale, with two stout but short legs supporting their heads, and two digging claws that are stubby and hard. Under the system's explanation, Lin Ye reacted quickly. But before he could take a closer look, the sound of heavy breathing on the other side of the mound suddenly became heavier again!

Suddenly the mountains shook!

Boom! The mound of rocks suddenly splashed a large amount of rubble under the violent impact, and the scream just now attracted the attention of the mysterious creature on the opposite side, it seemed that Lin Ye and the dinosaur had been discovered!

There was a dull crash after a bang, and even the ground shook violently.

The dinosaur that had dug out of the burrow screamed in horror again, and its voice even trembled. The mound of rock and dirt is about to be broken. It opened its mouth wide, took Lin Ye's wings in one mouth, and pulled Lin Ye into the hole dug on the side. The hole that had just been dug was quickly filled.

At the same time, the mound could not stop the continuous impact of the mysterious creature, and was completely toppled and collapsed.
