Savage Secret

() The whole body is soft and slippery, after touching it, it jumped forward, the speed is still very fast, it is not an old cow at all.

Are there water monsters under the water?The dragon dragon that I killed not long ago appeared in my mind, with a huge body and a big bloody mouth. Could it be that there is also one here?But I also thought that we came here chasing the fox. Could it be that the thing in the water was raised by the fox's family?The cave was already pitch black, and the monsters at the bottom made my anxiety and panic even more serious. To strengthen myself, I paused on the surface of the water and shouted loudly, "Old cow? Where are you?"

The echo was not very loud. It was preliminarily concluded that the hole was very deep.There was a burst of despair in my heart. If Lao Niu had an accident, how long can I last with my meager strength?

Unwillingly, I turned around, hoping to find something. The moment I turned around, I suddenly saw two light green lights in the distance, which were big, oval, and young grass that had just sprouted. The color is about the same.

I heard that only the light in hell is dark green. Did we fall into hell?The water from the hair flowed into the eyes, and the eyes hurt a little. I stretched out my hand to wipe it, and when I moved my palm away, I couldn't see the dim light anymore.Did I read it wrong just now?I was puzzled, and comforted myself by the way: there is no hell in the world, this place is just an ancient cave hidden in the deep mountains and old forests that has not been discovered by people.

After swimming in the water again, he reached the shore, dragged his tired body out of the water, and sat down on the ground.I was trapped in the ghost place before, but I didn't feel the same as now. I felt flustered and sad all at the same time, feeling a little lonely.

The cave is quiet and dark, as if it does not belong to living people. I must first see the current environment I am in before I can make the next step.It's been a long time since I climbed ashore, and I haven't taken off my backpack. I only hope that there is a flashlight in it, and preferably some dry food. I don't dare to expect anything else.

The backpack sank in the water, and finally pulled it to the front of the body, touched the zipper, and when it was about to open, there was a strange sound in the ear, pure like the cry of a baby, and like the sharp hiss of a wild cat ... No matter how you listen to the shrill and desolate voice, it sounds like a ghost baby who has been tortured in hell.

The cry sounded far away from me, and it still made my scalp tingle, especially when the word "ghost baby" came to my mind just now, I felt a small hand on my shoulder suddenly.This hand is only the size of a cat's paw, pale and bloodless, soft and soft, it suddenly turns to touch my back, without any effort, it just strokes lightly like that, but it makes my back go numb, and my horrified soul almost bursts out orifice.

At this moment, I felt suffocated, and I didn't care about pulling the zipper on the backpack. I slammed my hands back and carried it on my back for a while, trying to pull the ghost baby off my back.However, not only did I catch nothing for a long time, but the fear in my heart became stronger and stronger!Countless babies in my mind stared straight at me with gloomy eyes and countless cat-like thin hands dangling around, making me more and more anxious.

Suddenly, something slipped under his feet, and he fell firmly to the ground.It may be that the pain was too severe, and the baby and little hands shaking in my mind suddenly disappeared.I opened my eyes to the maximum, but still couldn't see anything in the dark, let out a long breath, and realized that I might have had a serious hallucination because of excessive fear just now.

I quickly closed my eyes and didn't think about anything, and my body didn't move around. After a while, my heart really calmed down a little bit, except that my body still hurts, nothing else is abnormal.Smiling wryly to myself, I thought to myself that this really answered the sentence: When the mind is calm, all evil will not arise!

I almost scared myself to death just now, and now I should think about it for myself. Although we are still alive, if we stay in this hole, even if the fox does not come to clean us up, we will not live for long. To leave here, the first step is to see where you are and find out the situation in the cave before you can make a plan for the next step.

The flashlight we brought into the mountain belt ran out of power when we were in the ghost place where corpses were piled up, and we threw it away long ago. The bag we picked up after we came out seemed to contain some high-end goods, which should be waterproof, so we stretched out our hands to touch them. past.

As soon as the body moved, the foot slipped again, as if there was a wooden stick, but I didn't care, thinking it fell from it at some time.I just kicked it away, squatted down, and continued to look for my backpack. Fortunately, it was at hand, and I hurriedly pulled it over, but the mouth of the backpack I touched turned out to be half open.

My heart skipped a beat, I was afraid that during the fall, the contents inside would fall out as our bodies tumbled, but fortunately there were still a lot of things in the backpack.

After soaking in the water for so long, the contents of the backpack were all soaked, and the clothes were heavy again after being soaked in water. After turning over for a long time, I didn’t turn out the hydro torch, but I was so uncomfortable that I took it all out.

The moment I touched the flashlight, I was so excited. When I excitedly turned it on, the excitement just disappeared: there was a vast whiteness in front of me, and I couldn't see anything after half a day.I thought there was something wrong with my eyes, but later I found out that it was not the case. It was just because I stayed in a dark place for too long and suddenly saw a strong light, my eyes could not adapt immediately.

Finally, the scene in front of me changed from blurred to gradually clear, presenting a strange and spooky scene. There was a lot of water in the cave, and the place where the beam of the torch shone was shimmering like a silver star.Where the flashlight did not shine, the gray-black water surface was dull and dead, like an ancient mirror that had been hidden for thousands of years and covered with floating dust.

The water here is different from the previous cave. It is not connected into a large lake, but separated by many chaotic rocks and bamboo shoots, forming many irregular pools with a radius of several feet.

The flashlight swept across the surface of the water, and these places that no one had ever been to, this deep-buried pool suddenly came to life. The beam of the flashlight is bright, but magnificent and dazzling, so that the beam of the flashlight becomes their foil.

There is usually a big contrast between the temperature of the ground and the ground. In summer, when the surface is hot, the ground is very cool.It's winter now, on the contrary, it's humid and warm in the cave.Therefore, even though I fell from above and fell into the water just now, I don't feel cold now, but rather sultry.However, after looking at the whole cave, my heart became cold. The cave is separated by some convex rocks and bamboo shoots from the ground to the top of the cave, forming small caves. Aquatic plants, obviously often overwater, and some aquatic plants even grow not far from the cave roof. Obviously, when water comes, it will submerge the cave roof.

This confuses me a bit. Although the climate in Shennongjia is warm and humid, it doesn’t rain every day. There is no heavy rain. How can there be too much water flowing into this cave, so that there are so many aquatic plants growing in the cave?I was afraid that I would make a mistake, so I deliberately tore it off to see. Although I couldn't name it, I recognized some common yinxing aquatic plants.

The more you look at it, the more strange it becomes. Take a look at the top of the cave. Although there are many things like banyan tree roots hanging down, they don’t drip water, but even the dripping water can be ignored. If you want to flood the cave, there is no mountain torrent or huge waterfall. Impossible, it means that the water does not come from the top of the cave.

After thinking about it for a while, only one explanation is the most reasonable, the water does not come from the sky, but from the ground.In other places connected to this cave, there is another huge water system, which may be underground rivers and springs. The dark rivers and springs are pulled by the moon to generate tides. A large amount of groundwater begins to surge and pours in here, filling the entire cave. After soaking for a long time, there is a miracle of aquatic plants growing on the wall of the cave.

If this is the case, then there will be big troubles. If you can't find the exit as soon as possible, even if you don't starve to death here, you will be drowned or swept away by the rushing water.I didn't dare to hesitate any longer, so I quickly looked around. The first thing I thought of was the hole we fell from. It was connected to the ground. If I could go back the same way, it would be a blessing in misfortune.

Thinking of that hole, I naturally thought of the strong suction force that pulled us down. At that time, my mind was in a daze. Even now, I haven't figured out what the suction force is.It was pulling me like a hurricane, and I couldn't break free, and then I fell.I remember when I was very young, I heard a storyteller say that there are giant pythons in the deep mountains and old forests that have grown for a thousand years. Their bodies are as thick as trucks, and they are about a hundred feet long. Then, with a random swing, a small mountain is reduced to dust.It usually doesn't need to go out to hunt. When it's hungry, it just crawls at the mouth of the cave and takes a deep breath. All the creatures within a few miles are sucked into its mouth and let it eat.

The suction force that brought us down was strong and eager, coming fast and going fast, very similar to the situation of the giant python in the story when it was hunting for food. Could there be a similar thing hidden deep in this ancient cave?The woman who led us here suddenly appeared in our minds. We used to suspect that she was a snake or a fox transformed into a human form. Could it be...
