Chapter 645 Confluence (8)

"Don't worry about this for now, it's important to find them to meet up." With this pile of doubts, no one can explain why at the moment, so I changed the subject and signaled everyone to start to solve the urgent task first.

Hearing the words, the old man expressed his agreement, so he didn't say any more. He lit the flashlight and walked forward first. After yesterday's repair, he looked much better today, perhaps because he was about to approach the goal. Looking at it, I am more energetic than before I was not sick.

No. [-] protected him, and immediately followed him, and followed the old man. Since the excavation was along the cliff and had to avoid the water flow outside, the terrain of the entire passage was higher and higher as we went forward. After reaching a highest point, the passage turned outward.

According to my speculation, this passage should be a shortcut to the outside world carved out by Zongnu. They did not directly build a bridge, but chose to dig a passage on the cliff, indicating that the end of the passage, that is, above the river, is likely to It leads to the shore, and this channel is relatively wide. Does it mean that they will carry out some kind of transportation?
According to this logic, this rushing river is likely to be groundwater, and the exit of the channel should be directly on the shore.

Unexpectedly, when we turned a corner, everything in front of us was not what I guessed. The exit of the corner turned out to be inside the cliff, and it was a very large space. In the past, there were all black lacquered rocks without a trace of edges and corners. It seemed that they had been washed by water for a long time during a certain period of time.

When the light is turned on, there is a deep water area a few meters away. The water looks very clean and the flow is gentle.

And the bottom of the water flow is wider and wider as it goes down, and there is skylight coming in. Looking out along the way, you can still see the faint greenery outside.

Now I fully understood that this place is a hollow where groundwater scoured, and the turbulent water flow outside originated from here.Due to the large drop in the terrain outside, there are many rocks rolling down from the mountain, so the water outside is very compelling, and the source of the groundwater, which is the place, is relatively flat, so the water in front of us is relatively calm.

The opening at the groundwater outlet is relatively large, allowing a lot of sunlight to seep in. Everyone swung their flashlights around a few times. After understanding the situation, they planned to turn off the flashlights and head for the exit.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the bald head suddenly exclaimed, and said in surprise: "Everyone, don't turn off the lights, there seems to be something upstream!" Everyone planned to go to the downstream exit, but the bald head's flashlight was going straight upstream at this moment. fight in the dark.

The terrain of this groundwater is relatively high. Not surprisingly, it should be snow water in the snowy area, flowing down from the high mountain, passing through the mountain, and flowing into the canyon.

Therefore, we estimate that the terrain in the upper reaches of the groundwater is not too complicated, it should be gradually narrowed, and at the end of it, it is likely to be a straight mountain crack above, so there is nothing worth exploring at all.

At this moment, the bald head suddenly made a sound, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. We all turned the lights upstream. Except for rocks and fast and smooth flowing groundwater, there was nothing else upstream.

Daxun frowned and flicked the flashlight a few times, then lowered his voice and asked the bald head, "Where is there anything?"

The bald man said: "There is indeed, but it disappeared in a flash, it seems to be a figure." He raised the muzzle of the gun and pointed it at the upstream position, looking very vigilant.

silhouette?

And in a flash?

I became vigilant and said, "Did you see clearly? Is it really a human?"

The bald head seemed uncertain, and said, "Like a figure, not sure, but there must be something!"

Who could be in this place?Could it be a bug slave?If it was the high priest and others, they would definitely show up when they saw us. The ghost who hanged himself was so frightened that his heart rhythm was arrhythmia.

Could it be the bug slave again?You must know that the bug slave is not dead.

Everyone thought of this and looked at each other. Although this is just a guess, if you don’t shoot [-], you’re afraid of it. The speed of Zong Nu is too fast. At this moment, there is no brother in the team who has amazing hearing and can detect danger in advance. If there is a bug slave following and spying on us, once it launches a sneak attack, it will be quite bad for us.

So I said: "It's better to strike first, and suffer later. I think it's better to go and explore." There was no objection from everyone, and immediately our group turned around and stopped going to the exit, but followed the road. The rocks at the edge of the underground river, all the way upstream.

Because it is an underground structure formed by cracks in the mountain, it becomes narrower as you go upstream, and the terrain also rises accordingly. The rocks under your feet are undulating and uneven. Some depressions are connected with small puddles one by one. Some special Small fish wandered leisurely inside.

We carried our weapons and put on 12 points of vigilance. We walked all the way for a while, watching the terrain getting higher and higher, and our heads getting closer to the top of the cave, but we still didn't find any figures or other clues.

The rocks near the water are very clean, leaving no footprints at all, and any traces can be easily washed away.

The path at the end of the light has become narrower and narrower. This unremarkable situation made the bald head start to doubt himself, and he muttered, "Could it be that I was blind just now?"

Daxun squinted his eyes, as if he wanted to say something, but before he could speak, suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of something popping out of the nearby water.

The flashlight in my hand moved towards the water suddenly, and my eyes followed the light. However, the things in the water reacted very quickly, and almost sank into the water almost as soon as the light swept past. , only issued a very slight fluttering sound.

Without saying a word, the gun I had been preparing all this time suddenly shot towards the direction where the thing sank.

"Bang! Bang!" The bullets splashed a lot, but both shots seemed to miss, but I couldn't fire the third shot.

Although everyone came in this time with hot weapons, but when we dealt with the snow spider before, the ammunition consumption was very high, so we didn't have many bullets left in our guns, and only the last two bullets were left in my pistol , when I push the third time, it sounds empty.
