Volume 2: Qilian Xianbi Chapter 10: Climbing
I watched the corpse rush down in the water, and instantly fell into the waterfall, and then I thought about the dark hole in the back, maybe it really flowed into the earth, maybe he had some point.
Since this person's background has nothing to do with us, then we don't need to stay here for too long, the only thing we need to do now is to find the exit as soon as possible.
Quan Juncai started a fire, and now that our equipment has been replenished, a few of us sorted out our equipment and continued to move forward. After a few steps, we heard the sound of water flowing louder again, which means that we are about to reach the source of this river, I don't know what kind of place the water source is, is it really an underground river?
"Listening to this sound, it feels like a waterfall again." Liu Yu suddenly said such a sentence, and I almost vomited blood when I heard it.
"Shut your crow's mouth!" Everyone glared at him, but I chuckled at the voice. The sound was so much like the sound of a waterfall that I secretly "bah", when is this time coming, this kind of thought can't appear!
Just when I was thinking wildly, I suddenly felt a momentary undulation of the ground under my feet, and I took a step forward involuntarily due to inertia, I was startled, thinking that it was my illusion in this extreme environment, but I saw several other people also shaking unsteadily, and we looked at each other at this time, which also denied the "illusion" I just thought.
I looked around, it was silent, it was pitch black, nothing was unusual, nothing suddenly jumped out, and suddenly it occurred to me that it was a sign on the eve of an earthquake. Then we're done, and we can't be buried alive here?
At this time, I heard an anomaly in the waterway next to us, and when I turned my head to look, I could only dimly see some fluctuations in the surface of the water, and I could not see anything because of the darkness around me.
At this moment, Qi Gongming also discovered the abnormality in the water, his whole face was blue, and immediately asked Uncle Quan to extinguish the open flame in his hand, Uncle Quan folded the fire and covered it, and we entered a darkness again, only to feel that the breath in the darkness fluctuated again.
Qi Gongming thought for two seconds, then turned his head to look at us, I saw a thin layer of sweat on his face, and I cursed, damn! Is it going to happen again?
"Everybody squat!" Qi Gongming said softly, with a hint of sternacity and nervousness in his voice. "Hurry up and get behind the slate, don't go beyond the height of the slate, and don't look behind the slate!"
In this environment, what anyone says is like a command, and we can't help but do it. At this time, a few of us hid on the side of the slate, and all of us bent our waists, trying to shrink ourselves to the minimum, as if we were afraid that there would be a monster behind the slate.
In the darkness, I could hear the sound of the water tumbling, the splash of water on the stone slabs, making small tremors, and my curiosity intensified, but so did my sense of fear.
Qi Gongming made a "go" gesture at the front, and the people in front moved forward in turn, and I was at the back, and the cat leaned over to put the footsteps to the lowest, and sweat beads appeared on my face after a few steps.
Everyone was walking forward cautiously, dozens of seconds later, the people in front of them suddenly sped up, I thought I had found the exit, so I raised my head slightly to look forward, but because Liu Yu's big backpack blocked the view, I had to tilt my head to the side, only to barely see the situation in front, everyone was silent, just moved forward quickly, in front of me was a brown-green wall, as if covered with moss, the south side of the wall was a huge circular water outlet, these things were less than ten meters away from us, this should be the end. I retracted my head, and finally the effort paid off, and the exit should be around here.
Before I could fully retract my head, a splash suddenly hit me outside the stone slab on the right, and I thought to myself, "Fuck! "Don't go wrong anymore! The splash hit me directly, what I didn't expect was that the force of the water was great, it hurt to hit my face, my eyes were closed, my mouth was "oops", and then I turned my head and saw a huge black object turned out of the water, I was dumbfounded, and a cold sweat flowed down in an instant, and the moment it fell, the water was hit on the stone slab, I retracted my head, and I didn't think of wiping the water on my face, and I was stunned in place thinking, how could there be such a thing in the water, and I didn't find anything abnormal in the water all the way, but at this time, is it really God playing tricks on us?
I wanted to raise my head and take a look again, but I was pressed down by a pair of hands, I looked up and saw that it was Uncle Quan, and there were a lot of questions I wanted to ask in an instant, and I just wanted to open my mouth Uncle Quan made a "shhhhh Uncle Quan pointed to the front, and I realized that the two of us had fallen behind, and the consequences would be unimaginable if we got lost at this time!
Uncle Quan and I immediately chased after him, and a blue-green iron ladder gradually appeared on the wall in front of me, mottled with a rusty color due to disrepair, and next to it was the huge round water outlet, and the circumference of the water outlet was a coiled dragon carved in stone, which was very beautiful.
The water is sprayed from here, obviously we can't enter this water outlet, we can only climb up the ladder to see what is going on above, Qi Gongming led the others to climb to the top of the ladder, and Uncle Quan and I followed later.
The iron ladder was less than five meters high, and Uncle Quan climbed up a few steps on it, and then I jumped to the upper level of the ladder in three steps and two steps, exposing half of my body on it, and I saw that several of them had already walked backwards, and it seemed that it was safe on it. It occurred to me that I had just seen a large black object, and now that I was in safe place, my curiosity rose again, and I couldn't hold back and glanced back.
When I looked back at that thing, I regretted it, my soul was almost scared, I thought I wouldn't see anything if I was so far away in the dark, but I was wrong! My mind was in a mess, my hands unconsciously let go, my body balanced for a moment, and then my center of gravity fell backwards.
Suddenly, a pair of hands grabbed me, my body was shaken, and I was caught, in a blur, I was already in the middle of everyone, and then I was awakened by Uncle Quan, and then a cold sweat broke out, I couldn't believe what I had just seen, and fear arose from the bottom of my heart.
Liu Yu looked at me with a pale face, came over and asked me what I saw, my brain is very messy now, I don't know how to say, what to say, and I have lost my language function for a while.
I couldn't put into words what I had just seen, my eyes wandered in the crowd, and I couldn't speak.
