This huge stone staircase is neither shabby nor damp. It seems very old, but it is as clean as new, without even a trace of dust.
This is what makes the team of demon hunters feel weird. The stairs that have been covered in dust for a long time should not be like this.
It's too clean and too quiet.
The first few team members who opened the way walked ninety steps and stopped at the 100th step of the entrance. Xue Ba made another report that he didn't know if he could send out: "Command Center, we have reached the 100th step.
Still nothing found.”
One hundred steps, no change! The angles and proportions of all the stone steps remain consistent, and there is still no gap in the natural stone wall.
If the light at the entrance hadn't disappeared, if sixteen people hadn't testified together, and if someone had counted the steps aloud, it would have made people feel trance-like and think they were standing still.
"It's really unbelievable..." Lin Mo, lying on the stretcher, said with emotion. He is the scientific leader of the team. He knows a lot about geology and architecture. Even people who don't understand understand that to build such a tunnel, even if
It is also difficult to achieve with modern machinery.
Who created these tunnels and high walls?
Several bright flashlights illuminated the surroundings, but could not illuminate the darkness below.
Is this an endless tunnel?
Everyone was a little silent at this time. Xue Ba was keenly aware of the rising depression. After the report, he said: "Uncle Dan, tell me a joke. Is there any meaty one?"
Xue Ba knows that "this is just authentic, don't be afraid" is nonsense, but jokes can relieve the dull atmosphere.
"Yes!" Uncle Egg naturally understood. His kind round face pretended to be ambiguous, and the remaining hair on his head seemed to stand on end. He smiled and said, "Let me tell you.
The time I met my female netizen, it was a real person..."
Soon everyone chuckled, but Gu Jun didn't listen. He kept carrying the front of the stretcher and walked in the middle of the team. His mind was gradually attracted by the dark red fine lines on the surrounding boulders, and he felt more and more blood flowing in them.
.
Vitality, he felt a strong vitality.
Is it an illusion caused by the fact that he is moving? Gu Jun asked Zhang Huohuo, who was behind the stretcher, to stop together. Looking around again, the feeling was clearly getting heavier...
Suddenly, something seemed to brush his face, and every tiny pore stood trembling.
"Wind..." Gu Jun murmured, "There is wind... there is wind!" He quickly shouted louder, "Captain Xue, the wind is blowing."
Is there wind? Everyone immediately paid attention in surprise, but didn't feel it. Even Lin Mo, Uncle Dan and Zhang Huohuo who were right next to Gu Jun said they didn't notice it.
The team member holding a small air detector over there also shook his head. The data did not change, and was still confusingly stable. The further underground, the lower the oxygen should be.
But Xue Ba didn't dare to look down upon it. The thick eyebrows on Fang's face wrinkled. What did Gu Jun's inspiration mean?
Uncle Dan, as the team doctor, has another consideration. Is Gu Jun hallucinating? Everyone's S value status cannot be seen from the appearance...
"It's breathing..." Gu Jun was still trying to figure out his feeling, "It's this tunnel that's breathing, we woke it up."
"Huh?" "Authentic breathing?" Everyone looked at each other in confusion. After these two days of getting along, everyone had made a lot of jokes with each other. When Xiao Ning came downstairs, she suddenly laughed and cursed: "Boy, are you a decorator who doesn't know how to be artistic?
Good doctor?"
"No, it's really windy..." Gu Jun's heartbeat suddenly accelerated because he could clearly feel the breathing and even heartbeat of the stones around him.
He also clearly felt the wind, and he said anxiously: "Let's get aside quickly, the wind is very strong!"
"Listen to Ajun!" Although Xue Ba was confused, he immediately shouted, "Hold each other's hands and sit down and lean against the wall! Ajun, Huo guys, you put the stretcher behind you and hold it up, grab the stretcher, and hold the stretcher on both sides.
People also catch it.”
All members of the team took action immediately and hid with Gu Jun to the left hand side of the stairs. They sat down to form a human wall against the wall. Only two young and strong guys, Gu Jun and Zhang Huohuo, grabbed the stretcher with both hands and blocked the way.
in front of.
Ten seconds passed in silence, their hearts tightening, and their breathing becoming heavy as they wondered whether an unknown nightmare would come.
Just so suddenly, every team member could feel it in their pores, the wind... there was wind blowing from the depths of the tunnel.
Almost at the same time, the raging wind roared and roared, completely submerging them in an instant. The huge wind blew the team's belongings to pieces and almost lifted them up. There seemed to be something mixed in the roaring wind.
Secret whispers swept past their ears, cries, howls, curses...
"Everyone, hold on!" Xue Ba shouted loudly, causing all the muscles in his body to twitch. "Don't let go, don't listen to that sound!"
Except for Lin Mo, who was bound to the stretcher, everyone was already sitting on the spot with all their strength, and tried their best not to pay attention to the weird and crazy sound.
But they saw that this storm had a color, a dark color...
Wind is the flow of air. The human eye should not see color. The black color is not air, but a large number of other substances mixed in the wind.
A sense of horror immediately arose in their hearts. This was direct skin contact, and they had directly sucked those substances into their bodies.
"Don't worry about it yet, hold on!" Xue Ba shouted again, but his voice seemed so weak in the wind, like mist that could dissipate at any time.
At the same time, Gu Jun's head began to hurt, as if countless indescribable scenes were flooding into the depths of his mind...
Weird, frenzied, terrifying... This feeling was something he had only experienced that day at the bottom of Longkan when he saw the pinnacle of rock half as tall as a man...
"Ah..." Gu Jun couldn't help but scream in pain, his headache felt like it was going to explode. Looking at the surrounding walls, those dark red fine lines were clearly flowing or even changing, forming various lines and patterns.
Like the various mysterious carvings on the peaks.
It is power, a force of life...
He saw countless figures in the strong wind.
Gu Jun's strange behavior did not attract much attention from others, because at this moment, he was not the only one who screamed. Lou Xiaoning whined like a trapped animal, and Xue Ba was still shouting for support.
Holding on, they used their strength and will.
However, this strong wind did not end after a while. Half an hour later, it was still howling, and an hour later, it was still roaring.
By this time, even Xue Ba, who was the largest and strongest, had been almost destroyed by the strong wind, and his hoarse voice could no longer shout. Uncle Dan, Zhang Huohuo and others could only rely on their breath to shout.
Hold on, once this breath is released, you can only let the strong wind take it away...
The gloomy emotions quietly spread into everyone's hearts, but people are so insignificant in the face of abnormal power.
Suddenly, Xue Ba saw it, Uncle Dan saw it, Lou Xiaoning also saw it... Gu Jun let go of his hands on the stretcher and stood up precariously.
Everyone saw in surprise and confusion that although Gu Jun was swaying, he did not fall down...
In the strong wind, he walked to the middle of the steps where he was, looked into the depths of the tunnel, and uttered a strange language.
