Chapter 40: Waterhole Monster
There is a very empty cave under the cliff wall on the southwest side of the sinkhole, the wall surface of the top of the cave presents a deflection plane of 40 degrees of inclination, and the following is the dark green pool water, the depth of the pool water accounts for about two-thirds of the height of the cave, because the ground height of the sinkhole is much higher than the pool, a part of the pool water out of the cave has formed a shallow beach of no small scale in the southwest corner of the sinkhole.
From this, it can be inferred that the reason why there is no stagnant water under this sinkhole should be due to the fact that this cave can drain the water, so this cave has become a natural sewer for this sinkhole.
In this way, the fish eaten by the strange bird in the ring corridor should have been caught from here. Although we are a little hungry now, we really don't have the leisure time to catch fish to eat.
We looked around and found that there was no danger in the vicinity, so we each took the time to wash the dirt on our bodies with the pool of water. If it weren't for the fear that there was something hidden in the water that we didn't know, I would have liked to jump in and take a shower.
At this time, Quanzi, who was on the side, suddenly shouted, "Look at that, how can there be a ship?" ”
We were taken aback by Quanzi's words, how could there be a boat in this pool of water? We looked up in the direction of the flashlight, and the four of us suddenly wanted to die, only to see a green and white painted assault boat quietly parked on the other side of the shallows, illuminated by the wolf's eyes, against the light of mockery at us.
At this time, I have scolded some people from the relevant departments eighteen times in my heart, before the scientific expedition team could come in comfortably in an assault boat, but we risked our lives to fall from the sky, and the gap between this person and people is too big.
Quan Zile said, "Na! Now the boat can explain why they can't find climbing equipment in their tents, how about it? Master, am I like a god? ”
Ah Fang couldn't get used to Quanzi's snort, and said with a smile, "It's like a god, I think you are a blind cat and a dead mouse!" ”
A few of us walked out of the water and circled around the assault boat, Ah Fang stared at the assault boat, and then glanced at the entrance of the cave with wolf eyes, "Hey, this is not right! ”
"What's wrong?" I asked.
"The space of this assault boat is not large, I think it can only seat 4 to 5 people at most, how did these ten people get in?" Ah Fang said.
"Oh, are you stupid, this boat won't run back and forth a few times!" Quanzi suddenly opened his mind and said to Ah Fang.
Ah Fang still shook his head, "The truth is so true, but I still don't think it's right, I don't think this matter is as simple as it seems on the surface, hey, what is this?" She said as her flashlight shone on a corner of the ship.
We looked in the direction of her finger, and saw rows of small dimples on the walls of the assault boat, made of stainless steel and high-density rubber, large and small, and in some places the paint had fallen deep into the pits.
I took a closer look at the marks and muttered, "It's not a bump mark, how do I feel like I've been bitten by something?" ”
Quanzi also squatted down with me and "tsk" non-stop, "It's not simple, it's not simple, it must not be a mortal thing that can bite this thing like this!" ”
Ah Fang said, "I guess this thing that bites the boat is definitely not attacking the ship, but attacking the people on the ship...... Ah Fang's words have not yet finished - only heard a scream of "oops" Quanzi, and then saw his ass as if it was on fire, and his body jumped forward, flew over the assault boat, and then covered his ass at one end and screamed "oops, oops".
Seeing that Quanzi was attacked, I, who was on the same side, immediately reacted, and jumped forward to run in the direction of Quanzi, and then Ah Fang, who was on the other side, shouted, "Look, what's in the water?" ”
At this moment, I had rushed behind Quanzi, held Quanzi and asked, "What's wrong, are you okay?" ”
Quanzi was still standing there rubbing his buttocks, and scolded angrily, "Something suddenly rushed out of this water and bit Lao Tzu from behind, fortunately I escaped quickly and was not bitten through by it, but it still bit the tail vertebrae, ouch can kill me!" ”
I looked at his embarrassed appearance, and suddenly felt a little crying and laughing. But the sweat on his forehead made me sweat for us, this is just the first step, don't let us lose a general!
I said, "Alright, don't howl yet, you hold on here for a while, and I'll see what kind of weird thing is biting you!" ”
At this time, Ah Fang and Ai Qin were shining a huge black creature on the mud with wolf eyes, only to see that it looked a little like a monitor lizard, because it had just rushed out of the water, its body was wet and slimy, and they saw that the thing had a long and wide mouth, and a row of neat and sharp teeth were exposed in the mouth, two blue-gray eyes loomed, the thick and gray skin covered its body like a stone, its limbs and claws were hidden in the mud, and the back half of its huge body was hidden in the water and did not move.
Looking at its stupid appearance, I would never have thought that it was the thing that attacked Quanzi. Looking at this strange and familiar thing, I immediately felt that something was wrong, this thing was obviously not a lizard, and I wondered, "Is this a fucking crocodile, how can a crocodile live in such a place?" ”
Ah Fang said on the side, "This can't be a crocodile, a crocodile can't live without sunlight?" ”
Aichen also said, "It's not a crocodile, you see, its eyes are different from crocodiles?" ”
I once again carefully observed the ugly thing not far in front of me, and there is indeed a big difference between the crocodile in my impression, continue to look at it, how I look at it, how I don't look like it, I can't help but regret it, I knew that I would encounter this kind of thing in action, I should have been more serious when I was in biology class!
The strange fish whose name was gray and sloppy rolled its eyes, and looked at a few of us looking at it in place, and it was probably also engaged in a psychological struggle there, only to see it take two steps back, stop again, and suddenly shrink its body and dive back into the water. A ripple appeared on the surface of the water, and it immediately dissipated. No wonder it was able to sneak attack in one fell swoop, it came and went without a trace.
Quan Zi scolded on the side, "I want to run away after biting Lao Tzu, and I haven't shown you Quanye's methods yet!" Picking up the gun and preparing to shoot into the water, I hurriedly grabbed him and persuaded, "Forget it, let it go first this time, and then decide whether it lives or dies when we figure it out!" ”
Ah Fang looked around and probed the surrounding environment again, and said, "I think we should go back to the camp first and plan the next action, for that group of missing people, we can't just blindly look for them in the sinkhole!" ”
Now that we've washed and washed almost, what Fang said is exactly what I want to say. I took cover in front, and Ah Fang and Ai Qin helped Quanzi to limp to the place where the group of scientists had set up camp.
After returning to the camp, in one of the tents, I checked the injuries of Jeonko, and when he took off his shirt and pants, under the light of the wolf's eyes, I found that although Jeonko's riot suit had not been bitten, the scars on the upper end of his buttocks and waist still startled me, and I saw a row of jet-black tooth marks neatly arranged on Jeonko's buttocks.
I forced myself to laugh and sprayed Quanzi with painkillers, and in order to relieve his pain, I joked, "Quanye, you are completely to blame for the heavy blow to your ass this time." ”
Jeonko asked, "Why is it still my problem?" ”
"No, who made your ass look so sexy, you see, even a crocodile can't help but want to kiss it!"
Quanzi scolded with tears and laughter, "I love to hear this, but Dezi, don't think about squeezing me, I really think that Lao Tzu doesn't know that your mouth was made by that ugly monkey!" ”
Hey? Am I not good at secrecy? How would Quanzi know? I hurriedly asked, "God only knows this, how do you know?" ”
Quanzi smiled "hehe", "If people don't know, unless you don't do it, just the little between you and that ugly monkey, a few of us already know!" ”
I thought about it, I wasn't bitten by the monkey, I was scratched by its paws, there was really nothing to be ashamed of, what was I embarrassed about!
I put on his clothes and pants for him, and said to him, "Well, you can rest here on your stomach first, and I'll go out and discuss with the two of them what we should do next?" ”
Jeonko struggled to get up from her sleeping bag and said, "I'm fine!" It's OK to do it normally! ”
I pressed him, "Forget it, you better lie down first, and then there will be a time for you to behave!" ”
Quanzi didn't say anything more and went down again.
I walked out of the tent and found that Ah Fang and Ai Qin had already lit all the four oil lamps around the camp, and also lit the alcohol on the alcohol stove on the left, cooking the seasoned soup we brought. ”
I said, "There are no external injuries, but there are some internal injuries, and I guess it will hurt for a few days!" ”
"That guy's bite force is really scary, maybe the traces on that boat were done by that guy!" Ah Fang said.
"Strange, how did those people know they could come in by water?" I asked, a little puzzled.
"They must have done their homework to come in, maybe they know more about this cave than we do!" Aichen said.
"We don't know anything about this cave!" Ah Fang said honestly, "So I'm not surprised that they can come in by water." ”
"Ah Fang is right, I'm relieved of this!" I answered.
Ah Fang handed me a bowl of freshly cooked hot soup and said, "I just thought that the guy who attacked Quanzi should be a giant salamander, which is also known as baby fish. ”
