How did a big living person disappear?

At this time, some team members suggested that the personnel should be divided into two teams and search in the east and west directions respectively, and no matter which team finds it, they should immediately return to the original point.

Yu Lie disagreed, although it was the best way, but he thought it was too risky. They are not familiar with the situation here at all, in case Zhou Ran does not find it in the end, the two teams will be lost again.

Some people are in favor, some people are against, and everyone starts arguing.

"Everyone, be quiet!" Yu Lie shouted loudly, "In this way, I will take three people to find it, and the rest will stay here." ”

Seeing the captain speak, the rest of the people stopped arguing.

In the end, he said to the deputy captain Lu Instant: "Captain Lu, if you stay here, you must ensure that everyone stays where they are!" Keep the communication going! ”

"Don't worry!"

Yu Lie tapped the device on his left wrist twice to determine the direction, and he chose to look east.

As they walked, they shouted Zhou Ran's name, and at the same time kept calling on the walkie-talkie. To ensure a safe route, they left markings on the roads they walked.

This is a special marker, liquid, which is stored in a special bottle and sprayed on the marker when used. Because it contains a strong contrast agent, it emits blue light when irradiated by a flashlight, and it is easy to distinguish in the dark.

Yu Lie felt that he had walked for a long time, raised his hand and looked at his watch, just fifteen minutes had passed.

He didn't care, and said to the communication equipment: "Lu Xian, please answer if you receive it." ”

"Roger, Captain Yu." The other party replied clearly.

"How are you doing?"

"Everything is fine, what about you?"

"Normal, keep in touch."

"Okay."

Yu Lie was relieved, and when he was about to walk forward, he suddenly heard a "buzzing" sound. In the depths of this silent underground, the sound is very loud.

"What sound?" One of the team members whispered.

After a few seconds, Yu Lie realized that it was the sound of his mobile phone text message.

"Looks like it's my phone......"

Sure enough, Yu Lie took out his mobile phone and saw that he received a text message. However, there is no signal on the signal bar.

He opened the text message suspiciously, and it prompted, "No network, do you want to refresh?" ”

"It's strange that there is an Internet in this place!" Yu Lie thought to himself.

Just thinking of this, Yu Lie was stunned, yes, there is no signal, how can he receive a text message?

An inexplicable sense of dread struck.

Yu Lie glanced at the three team members, and they didn't seem to notice anything abnormal.

"Let's move on!"

After Yu Lie finished speaking, he tapped "yes" with a slightly trembling finger to see what could appear.

After refreshing for two seconds, the message opened and was greeted by a string of characters, including letters, numbers, and some symbols.

Yu Lie's first reaction was "garbled characters", thinking that it was a blessing to be able to receive text messages in this place, and it was normal to not see the content.

So, he didn't take it seriously and put his phone up.

……

"Captain, we've been looking for almost an hour, and there is no Professor Zhou yet, so he shouldn't have gone so far."

Yu Lie thought about it, and yes, it was impossible for him to go so far alone, unless he got lost.

"Ask Lu Xuan how it is."

After speaking, Yu Lie's flashlight shone towards the stone wall, and found that it was no longer dark gray, but a kind of rock with a light red color. Moreover, the stone walls look very flat and do not look like they were formed naturally.

Yu Lie curiously reached out and touched it, it was a little smooth, and he felt that it didn't seem to be so hard.

"What's going on?" Yu Lie thought suspiciously, and regretted more and more that he didn't bring a geological expert over.

"Captain Lu, please answer when you receive it."

"Captain?"

"Captain!"

Yu Lie discovered the abnormality and hurriedly shouted: "Lu Xian! Lu Xian, please answer when you receive it! ”

No response.

Yu Lie and the three team members were completely dumbfounded, they had only been contacted fifteen minutes ago, why couldn't they be contacted all of a sudden? It's a good thing that the missing Zhou Ran has not been found, and the remaining waves of people can't be contacted!

Yu Lie's head rang and he almost fell, but fortunately he was held up by the team members around him.

"Captain, are you—are you alright?"

Yu Lie took a sharp breath and quickly calmed himself down, he knew that the more he had to stay calm at this time.

"It's fine."

"What do we do now?" The team member who was holding him said, his tone full of fear, "Still, do you want to keep going?" ”

"Go back!" Yu Lie said firmly.

Just as they were about to turn around and go back, another member of the team suddenly trembled and said, "Team, captain, look ......"

Yu Lie looked at the pillar of light of his flashlight and saw a faint blue light on the ground not far ahead.

Seeing this blue light spot, several people felt their scalps tingle, and this blue light was clearly emitted by markers.

"Isn't that a mark we left behind? How did it end up here? One of the team members said in surprise.

"We're coming back?"

"No, I remember we kept going and didn't turn a corner!"

"What's going on!"

……

Yu Lie didn't care about the argument of the three team members, Zou frowned and thought about the strange scene in front of him. He was pretty sure that the four of them had been ahead of their time, and that they hadn't turned a corner or encountered anything strange.

He looked up at the device on his wrist again, and yes, the compass was still pointing east.

Whenever they encounter something that science cannot explain, people habitually fantasize about the unknown.

Yu Lie swallowed his saliva, thinking to himself, did he encounter a "ghost hitting the wall"?

yes, this situation is too much in line with the ghost hitting the wall......

After a few minutes, even though fear was surrounding them, they had slowly calmed down.

"Captain, could it be that Professor Zhou left behind?"

"Well, it's possible."

Yu Lie also thought of this, if it was the mark left by Zhou Ran, this was the best result, if not, then ......

He didn't dare to continue thinking about it, the most important thing at the moment was to get out of here first.

"How many meters of markers do we leave behind?" He asked.

"Thirty meters," replied one of the team members, "I'm afraid I won't find it, so I'll keep it dense." ”

"Okay, keep walking and keep an eye on the next marker." Yu Lie said he wanted to make sure it wasn't a mark they had left behind.

By this time, the team members had understood what he meant.

The flashlights of the four men shone on the road in front of them, as if it were daylight. However, because it was gray, like foggy weather, the visibility was less than 20 meters.

Yu Lie noticed that the "fog" at this time was thicker than just now.

"Captain, look!"

Five or six meters ahead, they saw markers glowing blue.

"How many meters?"

"Thirty meters, that's right, it's our mark!"

Yu Lie noticed the trembling sound in the team member's words, and also felt his heartbeat speed up again. He knew that the mood of the three team members at the moment was the same as him, that is, fear.

More than 300 meters underground, in a strange and huge space, there is a lot of fog, and strange things are happening, and anyone will be afraid.

"Keep going!"

As he spoke, Yu Lie strode forward, and at this moment he had a bold idea, which could only be verified by moving forward.

Seeing this, the three team members hurriedly followed.

Sure enough, in the rest of the advance, a marker appeared every thirty meters or so. During this period, they kept calling Zhou Ran and the rest of the team, but none of them responded.

Yu Lie had no intention of stopping, and the team members had to follow. When he passed the next marking point, Yu Lie didn't say a word, took a sip of water and continued to move forward.

"Captain......

"What's wrong?"

"You stop first."

Yu Lie didn't stop, just slowed down.

"Captain!" The team member raised his voice.

Yu Lie stopped and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"It's ...... the end"

"What?" Yu Lie asked suspiciously.

"The markers are over," he whispered, "I remember very well, twenty markers were made. ”

"Am I not mistaken?"

Yu Lie looked down at the device, the compass had failed, and after these strange things, he was no longer so panicked.

Yu Lie thought for a while, led the three of them to continue walking, and after making sure that there was no mark, he made a bold decision: go back.

The team members were both surprised and puzzled, seeing his serious expression, no one dared to ask, so they had to follow hard.

They walked silently, the silence around them was terrifying, and everyone could clearly hear their own heartbeats.

Everyone silently counted the marks they had passed, one, two, three......

They wanted to get back to where they had set out as soon as possible to be reunited with the people, and they prayed that the twentieth marker would come slowly, for fear that their hopes would be disappointed again.

However, as several people passed the tenth marking point with trepidation, something strange happened again.

At first, no one noticed, until the light of the flashlight seemed to shine a little farther away, and everyone realized that the fog had thinned.

Then, a "hissing" murmur came over the intercom.

"Hey, hey......"

Yu Lie shouted at the walkie-talkie, as if he saw hope, but he heard nothing but noise.

When the twelfth marker was passed, a miracle finally appeared.

Yu ...... Captain, you ...... Hear the reply......"

Yu Lie was in a mood for a while, and hurriedly shouted: "Received!" Roger that! Where are you? ”

The other end of the walkie-talkie seemed to be very excited, although it was intermittent, Yu Lie still judged that it was Lu Yan's voice.

"Captain Yu, I'm ...... Lu Xian, we ...... Origin, Professor Zhou ......"

……

Due to the poor quality of the call, the two talked for a while without understanding each other's meaning. However, Yu Lie was sure that they were still in square one.

Judging from the current situation, although I don't know if this direction is right, at least I have made contact with the large army.

Just as he raised his hand hopelessly, he suddenly found that the compass on his device was working again, pointing to the west, which was the direction they were walking back.

Yu Lie didn't think much about it, and strode forward, and when he passed the fifteenth marking point, communication was restored.

"Lu Xian, how are you doing over there?"

"Everything is normal, what about you? Why can't I get in touch all of a sudden? ”

"It's okay, I don't understand a sentence or two. What about Professor Zhou? ”

"Right next to me, it's back!"

"What's going on?"

"This ...... I'll talk about it when you get back! ”

"Okay."

End of call.
