When I picked up Ouyang, I found that he was soaked from head to toe, with a sticky mucus on him. His whole body looked like a giant soft-bodied insect. Ouyang's eyes were narrowed, and he probably didn't feel anything.
Foaming at the mouth, he passed out.
My claws were numb all of a sudden. Such a brave man was thrown up with foam at the mouth. What kind of deadly thing was at the bottom of the pit? I immediately dragged Ouyang aside. Although he passed out, he was still holding on tightly.
I took the gun into my hand, and before I could straighten up, I heard Chen Yu's scream. That scream made my head numb, and I quickly returned to the edge of the pit.
The moment my eyes turned to the pit, I saw Chen Yu staggering into sight, but before I had time to take a second look, an indescribable face slowly poked out against the wall of the pit, right in front of me.
I bumped into the opposite face. To be honest, it was the ugliest face of any creature in the world that I have ever seen. That kind of ugliness can only be described as disgusting. This face was only as big as a navel orange, but its eyes were not.
Small, occupying almost half of the face. The skin and flesh on the face are eroded, with a smelly blood-red color. The facial features are in a mess and cannot be distinguished, because the eyes are too big, and the nose and mouth are almost squeezed together.
It was very strange. I was suddenly frightened by the face that appeared, but I wasn't too scared. Maybe it was because the face was so ugly. It was so ugly that people's panic turned into resentment, and I immediately thought about beating it to death.
I feel sorry for my parents.
This ugly face was probably the little shadow that led the two guys here, but I didn’t know where the courage came from, so I hit it hard with my flashlight. This shot was too fast and too hard.
It hit the wrong target. The light of the flashlight turned and fell exactly between me and the ugly face. I looked at the ugly face's ridiculously big eyes, and I felt a little more awake, and fear suddenly arose. But what I didn't expect was,
The little shadow's claws on the pit wall suddenly let go, screaming and falling to the bottom of the pit, and flew towards the fork at the bottom of the pit desperately.
All this happened very quickly. When I gasped and looked at Chen Yu at the bottom of the pit again, my heart almost jumped out of my throat. I saw a black tentacle, very thick, coming from a fork below the pit.
He reached out, grabbed Chen Yu by the waist, and dragged her inside.
This may be the first time in my life that I have encountered such a difficult thing. I am not a warrior. I also know my own weight. Even if I risk more than 100 pounds, it may not be of any use. But my flashlight
When the light shines down, what you see is Chen Yu who is constantly struggling. She shrinks back desperately, grabbing the raised rocks on the wall of the pit with both hands, but her strength is too small and she cannot compete with the huge tentacle.
.
Chen Yu also noticed the light coming from above. It might be a conditioned reflex. She raised her head in the crisis. Chen Yu's hair was completely wet, and her bangs were stuck to her forehead. Her face was pale, and there was something in her eyes that I couldn't see through.
of water vapor.
"Let's go!" Chen Yu and I looked at each other for half a second, then withdrew his gaze and threw two words at me.
After saying these two words, her hand slipped and her whole body was dragged in by the tentacles and disappeared from my sight.
At that moment, my heart suddenly stung, all the hesitation and fear disappeared instantly, and there was only one last thought left in my heart: I can't let her die here.
I yelled and climbed down quickly from the edge of the pit. The wall of the pit was very damp. I didn't pay attention. I almost rolled and fell to the bottom of the pit. I got a cut on my head. Although it was not big, it was bloody.
It flowed downwards with my face. I couldn't care about it anymore, so I held up my flashlight and swept it.
There are four or five forks under the pit, and the one Chen Yu was dragged into was the largest one. Six or seven meters deep behind the fork is a small hole, and the tentacles stretched out from that small hole. Chen Yu also
After resisting stubbornly and grabbing everything I could, she was dragged in about three meters away. I bit the flashlight, jumped over and grabbed her, pulling her back hard.
"You're stupid! What are you doing here!" Chen Yu's head was also knocked open, and blood flowed down her soaked hair and through her eyes that seemed to have been quenched of impurities in an instant: "Let's go! Let me go!"
"
I held my breath and pulled her, not daring to let go and speak at all, but I felt that this would not work, and the combined strength of the two of us would not work. People often make mistakes in their thinking and actions when they are extremely nervous. I did not expect that at the time
It was impossible to contend with this huge tentacle.
Sure enough, when I tried my best, I felt the power of the tentacles suddenly increase. Chen Yu and I couldn't hold on any longer. We were dragged forward a few meters one after another. This time, we were about to be dragged to the tentacles.
In the small hole that sticks out.
It was at this moment that I saw what was in the hole. This small hole was filled with shallow water and a layer of sticky liquid. A ball of bluish soft flesh was accumulated in the hole, and the tentacles came from it.
When it grows out, it looks like a large sponge has been forced into a small space.
Through the opening of the small hole, I saw a pair of eyes, huge eyes. They were on the soft flesh. They were a pair of green and faint eyes, just like seeing a terrifying unknown creature in the deep sea. I might have been
The eyes were shocked, his body trembled, and he pulled out the knife from his waist like a conditioned reflex.
Chen Yu's body turned upside down and she pushed on the rocks at the entrance of the cave with her feet. She turned around with difficulty and shouted to me again: "Get out of here!"
I didn't say anything because I wanted to use all my strength to deal with this tentacle. I held the knife and stabbed at the tentacle like crazy. The smelly and sticky liquid came out along the edge of the knife. This thing hurt.
The tentacles loosened a bit, but the mucus was all over my hands. I was holding the handle of the knife and it was slipping back and forth, and I couldn't exert any strength. I suddenly remembered that Ouyang's gun was still on me, so I dropped the knife, took out the gun and pointed it at the hole.
With both eyes, he shot out the remaining bullets in one breath.
The huge thing in the small hole probably wouldn't make a sound, but it was obviously furious. It kept twisting its body. The tentacles holding Chen Yu completely loosened and retracted into the small hole. Chen Yu was suddenly thrown to the ground.
I threw out the gun with all the bullets and turned around to grab Chen Yu.
At this moment, several tentacles popped out from the entrance of the small hole like lightning, sweeping in like a blue wave. The space here was not big to begin with, and everything was within the reach of the tentacles. At that moment just now
The fierce fighting seemed to have exhausted all my strength. I grabbed my head and stared blankly at the tentacles that were about to wrap up in front of my face.
Immediately afterwards, my body suddenly became empty, and I was pulled back hard by Chen Yu. The two of us had no way to go, and it was impossible to go back the same way. She pulled me and got into the nearest one.
In the small hole, I was extremely embarrassed. Chen Yu was holding me by the collar, kicking my hands and feet on the ground. When my body was completely submerged in the small hole, I heard the sound of tentacles outside violently hitting the stone wall.
But this small hole didn't seem to be the best shelter. After Chen Yu and I got in, our bodies rolled down uncontrollably. The terrain inside the hole was almost a 60-degree downward slope. I stretched out my hands and grabbed randomly.
But what I caught were all slippery and moss-like, and I couldn't bear to eat them.
After rolling down for at most ten meters, I felt my body suddenly emptied out again, and fell into a pool of water. This might be a water hole. Water droplets were constantly crackling on the stone wall above my head, like a fire.
The drizzle and bone-chilling coldness immediately overwhelmed me. The flashlight worked very well and was not broken. Chen Yu caught me immediately, but when she found out that I could swim, she breathed a sigh of relief.
The water is flowing. Although the flow rate is not fast, we can only float along the water and have no strength to swim upstream. Even if we swim back against the current, we cannot climb into the inclined hole where we fell into the water. This is like a thick full-length
The closed underground pipe has no exit and no gaps. I think we can only stop when we float along the current to the end.
I wiped the water on my face, and my heartbeat gradually returned to normal. I asked Chen Yu how the remaining people were doing. She said that the other people scattered and fled to other forks in the road. I don’t know whether they were dead or alive. The two of us
Just drifting like this, trying to accumulate some energy. The huge passage would turn and turn around from time to time, and Chen Yu and I were a little confused about the direction.
I looked at my watch after a while. Half an hour had passed and the water hole seemed not to be over yet. I had to swim on my back, otherwise the last bit of body temperature would be taken away by the flowing water. This rafting
The length frightened me, and I thought that even if we could leave Jishui Cave now, we would definitely be in an unfamiliar area that we had never set foot in before.
The rafting lasted for more than an hour. The Jishui Cave finally seemed to be cut off, revealing a gap of five to six meters. Chen Yu and I were almost freezing to death, so we quickly seized this opportunity and crawled out of the water.
We peeked out from the gap to see. After drifting for more than an hour, we were still in the ruins of the ancient city. The ruins were like a huge garbage dump, with high and low ruins piled one after another. People stood here, as if
Standing among low mountains.
Chen Yu's condition was not very good. He was out of the water, but he was shivering all over and felt very cold. We just wanted to find a suitable place to take a short rest and find a way to dry his clothes. Even at this time, Chen Yu
Still gritting her teeth and clearing the way ahead, she walked around a pile of ruins that was only four or five meters high, trying to pass straight through.
But when her foot stepped on a stone, the balance of the ruins seemed to be suddenly broken. Stones of all sizes rolled down. I jumped back on my toes, but the falling stones did not move.
It hit us, but the moment I stood firm, something in my memory was touched by the scene in front of me.
