Chapter 253: Cave in the Ground
Mi Jiale let go of the driver's uncle's hand in a dejected manner, no one wanted to see this result, but it just happened, I looked at the small temple in the distance, Huang Rong didn't move after entering, now pay attention to the dead, it is better to care about the living.
"Watch out for those holes." Before turning around, I reminded Mi Jiale that although the earthworms were dead, the devil knew if there was anything else in the burrows, after all, it was neither the mandrill nor the dead child who dug these holes.
Mi Jiale got up to follow me, and he looked down at the holes under his feet, which were so numerous and dense that just looking at them, he thought that something would suddenly burst up from them.
Passing through these holes, we walked to the door of the small temple, I remember that I didn't close the door when I came out with Miss Wan on my back, and now the door is closed, it must have been closed after Huang Rong went in.
I reached out and pushed open the door panel on the right, the wooden door creaked, Mi Jiale looked inside, gasped, and said, "This-"
The ground in the temple has disappeared, and with it, there are still the confessions, the chess table, and Gu Yu and the three of them, leaving only a bottomless deep hole, blowing a yin wind upwards.
Mi Jiale was dumbfounded, he hurriedly pushed open another door panel, so that he could see more clearly, but the hole in the ground is the hole in the ground, except for the small temple on it, there is no difference from other holes, but the area is larger.
"Collapsed? Master Huang and Captain Gu... Fell? ”
It is certain to fall, but whether it is a collapse or not, it is difficult to say, I squatted at the entrance of the temple, holding on to the threshold and looking under the hole.
This hole is equal to the area of the temple ground, and it is difficult to say whether it was the first hole or the first temple, but I think it should be the first hole, and then someone built the temple on it according to the size, and then paved the ground.
As for the role? That's not what I should think, I asked Mi Jiale to go back to the bus to find a rope, and it was okay to tear the seat cover into strips and tie it together without a rope, in the end, Gu Yu Whether they fell or not, only when I went down to see it would be known.
Mi Jiale heard that he was looking for a rope, and his face finally showed a little joy, saying that it was a coincidence, there was a rope in the car, and Nie Zhe and his party went into the mountains to collect medicine, and there were several bundles of various ropes.
Everything didn't go well for us this night, Nie Zhe and their team may all be dead, and now there is finally such a happy little thing, Mi Jiale naturally ran back to get the rope with his legs and feet.
While Mi Jiale was leaving, I put the baby by the door and talked to him face to face, and he had been watching from the wall until he died, and if there was no satisfactory explanation for me, I threw him into the hole as a pathstone.
"Don't say 'ah~', you can answer whatever I ask, understand?" I looked at him with a straight face and without a hint of sympathy.
"Uh... All right. The baby responds with brain waves.
"Name, age, gender?"
"Jiang Dabao, 108, male."
"Dishonest, isn't it? Answer well, 108? Tease me? Well? I poked him in the forehead as I spoke, poking his fleshy head straight back.
"Uh... I'm really 108 years old, and I still have half a month to go, really! The baby explained vigorously, raising her little hand to cover her forehead, dodging my 'attack'.
"Okay, even if you're 108, how can you become a baby? You said that you were here to kill earthworms, or a stranger, so when I just rescued you, why didn't you communicate with me, and why didn't you wait for Miss Wan to be recruited? ”
"That's not an earthworm, it's the embodiment of an evil god, but they're not the god itself, they're just messengers." Babies transmit brainwave information quickly, and brainwaves output faster than if they were to speak with their mouths.
Originally, he was just an ordinary centenarian before the end of his life, with four generations in the same family and a happy life, but when the virus broke out, their family, except for him who escaped in a nursing home, all their children and grandchildren were killed.
It's quite funny to say, most of the elderly people in the nursing home wear dentures, and a few of them have good teeth, either in wheelchairs or paralyzed in bed.
During the first mutation wave, the loss in the nursing home was minimal, and the head nurse and the security guards alone restrained several mutated old men and old ladies.
But then there was a shortage of food, especially medicines, and these elderly people could endure hunger, but they could not stop taking medicine.
The nursing home, which was already located in a secluded part of the suburbs, gradually became an isolated island after the security guards went out in batches to look for food, and most of them never returned.
The surviving old people died one after another, and Jiang Dabao was the only one in the nursing home who was over 100 years old, and he still had neat legs and feet, bright ears and eyes, and was conscious.
The most important thing is that he doesn't need to take any medicine, so he survives to the end, of course, if he doesn't have the ability to awaken, if someone hadn't entered the nursing home and found him, then he would probably have turned into dry bones.
And his ability, which is actually very strange to say, says that he can suppress all evil powers, but only if another evil is used as a medium.
To put it simply, he wants to suppress the power of the evil god, and he wants to pass through me, and he transmits it to me, and then I do it.
"Uh~ yes, if I didn't give you the ability to transmit, you wouldn't be able to smash that mud shell with a hundred-pound hammer."
"But you haven't explained yet, why didn't you do it before, you have to wait for someone to die before you say anything!"
"Uh~ because I want to make sure you can be trusted."
Jiang Dabao said that while he awakened his ability, he became a one-year-old baby, and he has not changed for a year, although he can use brain waves to communicate directly with people, but in terms of physical strength, he is not as good as a centenarian.
He needs the help of others to move and survive, and he must carefully choose his collaborators, and it is precisely because I saved the seemingly unsaved driver uncle that he decided to 'show up'.
Whether it's Miss Wan, Uncle Driver, or Jiang Dabao and I, we are all strangers who meet in Pingshui, and if I suddenly become a baby and have to rely on others to survive, I will also carefully examine everyone who comes into contact with me, which I can understand.
What's more, he said that I was an evil and gave my life to the evil spirit, which was even more cautious, and the original plan of him and his companions was to control a mutated animal, and that animal would attack the evil god.
Unfortunately, when his companion arrived, he was confused by the mother mandrill and turned into a zombie, and the mutated animal controlled by his companion also fled.
He was about to turn into a dish at the birthday feast, but thankfully I showed up in time, and he said that he noticed me in the zombie feast, and although I was evil, there was no desire for flesh and blood in my eyes.
I sighed, Miss Wan's arrest was something we didn't expect, and it happened suddenly, there was no chance to stop it, we can only say that the world is impermanent.
"Then what's the matter with you running to this deep mountain to kill monsters, and you can eat enough to do this?"
"Uh~ I can really ......"
Next, Jiang Dabao told me that there is a new industry now, and there are strange things and crazy people in the last days.
Some people dig out their hearts to study abilities, others practice magic at any cost, and as the age of technology gradually fades away from us, people begin to re-pursue those ancient and mysterious magic.
Therefore, some people spend a lot of money to hire people to look for rare treasures and demons and monsters in the deep mountains and old forests, which sounds absurd and funny, but this is a bizarre era.
Therefore, Jiang Dabao and his companions were hired by the boss of a certain camp to find the source of the evil god's power for this man.
To put it bluntly, they just want to find a demon pill or something similar to it, it is best for ordinary people to become superhuman after eating, and superman to become autobots after eating, in short, not everyone can do it.
At this time, Mi Jiale ran back with two large bundles of ropes, "Are these ropes enough?" It's almost five hundred meters. ”
I took the rope, Mi Jiale handed me a flashlight, I tied the flashlight to one end of the rope and threw it down, the aperture fell straight down, and when I stopped, the rope was just half a bundle.
"More than 100 meters, it's done." I tied the other end of the rope to the pillar in front of the temple gate, and Mi Jiale was about to untie another bundle of rope, when I saw this, I hurriedly waved at him: "I'll just go down, I have to leave someone on top to watch, if I pull the rope three times below, you will pull me up." ”
Mi Jiale nodded, said okay, and then put down the rope and reached out to pick up the baby, I waved my hand again: "No, I have to take him down, he has a special ability." ”
Mi Jiale looked at the baby in surprise, and the latter grunted twice and nodded his head heavily, until I climbed down the rope down the hole, and Mi Jiale still had an expression of acceptance of impotence on his face.
His psychology at this time may be very complicated, seeing the woman and the baby go into danger, and he is a young man but left to sentry, and the man's self-esteem will be somewhat affected.
But this is not the era when age and gender determine the division of labor in society, if he knows that I am carrying a centenarian birthday star, I guess the blow will be even greater.
The old man Jiang Dabao said that since he awakened his ability, his memory has not been as good as before, and his memories in the early years have been blurred, and only the memories of the last year or so are still quite clear.
It's probably because his body has become a baby, his brain has deteriorated, or whatever, and I'm not a doctor or a biologist, so there's really no better explanation.
The further I descended, the more I was sure of my previous guess that the age of this cave was definitely earlier than the small temple, and it was not just dug up.
It may be that Huang Rong came in and destroyed the ground structure, and the three of them fell down together, revealing the hole opening.
The cave looked like there was no end, but there was actually a bottom, and when I went down to about 110 meters, my feet fell to the ground.
Fortunately, I didn't see anyone's corpses, but there were broken stone tables and chairs and black and white chess pieces scattered on the ground, but there were no traces of blood, which means that not only did they not die, but no one was injured, which is good news.
And the bad news is that the space at the bottom of the cave is equal to the area of the ground of the small temple, which means that the place is not big, and I have neither seen other exits, nor have I seen Gu Yu and their people, could it be that they disappeared when they fell?
