256. Nest under the sea

The four of us gathered around the mouth of the cave, looking down at the huge crater in front of us.

The pit is neither regular nor irregular.

It is said to be regular because the shape of the pit is an approximate circle, as if it had been deliberately chiseled out, and if it had been formed by accidental impact, or if it had been formed by natural decay, it would certainly not have taken on this shape;

It is said to be irregular because the outline around it is very rough, as if it has been gnawed by a dog, and I don't know what kind of tool can dig such a sloppy hole.

Ma Hailong, me and Uncle Mei, the three of us didn't want to go down at first, after all, this pit is bottomless, and the scales of the monster that attacked Ma Hailong appeared nearby, who knows what is in it?

It's an exaggeration, even if it's a Longtan tiger's den, it's not too much.

But Yu Xiaobo was very strong, and he had to go down.

He pointed into the hole and shone his headlamp into it, motioning for us to look down.

I tried to look down, and then I was immediately stunned, only to see that the hole was not completely dark, and if I looked closely, I could see a clear light.

The light was faintly visible, a bit like a firefly, and I was stunned when I looked at it, and I felt more and more scary in this hole.

Yu Xiaobo asked Ma Hailong to come over again, and kept gesturing to Ma Hailong, as if he was conveying some news.

As a result, when Ma Hailong came over to take a look, he immediately became excited, slapped his thigh, and danced with Yu Xiaobo's excited hands.

The two men pointed to the inside of the pit and whined excitedly, but unfortunately because they were underwater, I really couldn't hear what they said, and I couldn't understand what they meant, but I guessed that there should be some important treasure in it.

In this way, Ma Hailong and Yu Xiaobo stood on the united front, and both of them supported us to go down and have a look, and Uncle Mei and I were very passive, because we were both newcomers, and our words were obviously weightless.

The two seniors advocated going down, then we can only go down.

Soon, Yu Xiaobo took out a rope from his backpack, tied it to the outside of the hole, and then slowly followed the rope down.

Ma Hailong did not walk in front this time, but walked in the second, and Uncle Mei and I followed him in turn.

We walked slowly forward and entered through the hole.

At first, the space inside was still very dim, but with the light of the headlights, the brightness was not a problem.

But when we dived down, the space suddenly became brighter, and it was the same oily light we had seen above, as if there was some luminous object in the cave.

This is the depths of the ocean, and there is certainly no artificial lighting, so I suspect that the luminous body is probably some glowing aquatic creature, similar to glowing fish, or coral.

But what exactly is glowing will not be known until you see it with your own eyes.

The vertical height of this cave is about seven or eight meters, which is not particularly deep, and soon, Yu Xiaobo, who was walking in front, came to the bottom.

Then I heard him shout "whine", and then he took a crowbar and pulled a pile of things in front of me, I thought it was strange, and quickly looked at it, only to see that it seemed to be a pile of rotten aquatic plants, mixed with the mud and sand.

After I dived down, I squatted down and took a look, only to see that these black things were not aquatic plants, but like dead skins of animals retreating, and when I picked them up again, I saw that these dead skins were not the black scales growing on the monster's body.

It's just that the scales are very numerous, and they don't look like they were cut off by us, but like snakes, lizards, and other animals shed their skin.

The thought of this monster molting makes me feel sick.

After swimming a little further, I saw that there were still piles of rotten skins on the ground, which was really chilling.

It's a pity that we can't communicate now, and we can only look at each other when we see this kind of thing, so Yu Xiaobo didn't linger any longer, but continued to swim forward with a crowbar.

The cave was much more spacious, like a cave under the sea, and a den of some kind of large animal.

We swam some distance forward, and suddenly we heard a hostile roar from the depths of the cave, which was a bit like the roar of a tiger or a lion.

As soon as we heard this voice, we immediately stopped in place, Uncle Mei's face changed, grabbed Ma Hailong's arm, and shook his head at him.

Ma Hailong is also a person who cherishes his life, and hurriedly went to gesture towards Yu Xiaobo.

But Yu Xiaobo was so bold that he was not only not afraid, but he actually grabbed a crowbar and banged desperately on the walls of the cave, making a "dingding" piercing sound and shouting.

Seeing Yu Xiaobo's reaction, several of us were stupid, and Ma Hailong hurriedly pulled him and told him to stop knocking.

As a result, Yu Xiaobo was very stubborn, and while pulling with Ma Hailong, he continued to bang on the wall hard, making a "dingding" sound.

I was in a hurry, for fear that this movement would anger the things in the cave, and rushed out to attack us, just trying to help Ma Hailong stop Yu Xiaobo, but at this moment, something magical happened—the roar in the cave actually stopped, as if the thing was frightened by us.

Yu Xiaobo smiled smugly and pointed inside, as if to ask us, "Did you see it?" I did what it worked. ”

Ma Hailong was also unexpected, and looked at Yu Xiaobo in surprise.

He stopped Yu Xiaobo and let him continue to bang on the wall.

Yu Xiaobo knocked for a while to make sure there was no sound inside, then nodded at us again and asked us to follow him forward.

I vaguely felt that Yu Xiaobo didn't seem to be the first time he had come into contact with this kind of underground cave, he seemed to know something, especially when dealing with the creatures inside, he seemed to have experience.

But I can't ask about specific things now, I can only follow him forward first and see what is in it.

After these few incidents, I also have more trust in Xiaobo, at least I can be sure that it is safe to follow him, and nothing will go wrong.

Soon, we came to the depths of the cave, and we were surprised to see that there were some furniture in the cave, which we didn't expect!

I saw that inside the cave, there were some low tables, chairs, and some Ayutthaya Kingdom-style decorations and handicrafts!

Obviously, all of these things were stolen from that cargo ship, which means that there is some kind of creature living here, and they even know how to use furniture and even decorate their nests!
