"The parasitic method of this thing is very special. It is similar to a tree fork. It has only one main branch, which is the one I just burned to death. After entering my body, it will grow rapidly, and then it will grow in my body. His body is like branches growing in branches, rapidly growing many body structures. But once his main branch is destroyed, none of his branches will survive."
Zhuge Chalcedony took off his clothes directly in front of us, and asked us to help him pull out all the hair that was still in his pores.
If it weren't for Zhuge Chalcedony, I might have died under the water just now. Of course, I took the initiative to walk to his side and immediately helped him pick up these white thin threads on his body.
I pulled out all the fine threads. I looked at his body again to make sure there was nothing left by insects on his body, and then I sat aside.
Zhuge Chalcedony put on his clothes again and stared at the stone wall next to me with a stern expression.
"I was wrong. Although I just said that I had determined that there was an exit there, my pointer was pointing to the exit on the rock wall, and the entire rock wall was integrated. In other words, he The exit pointed at should be the one in front of us. After I realized something was wrong, I prepared to go into the water to find this underwater way out like you, but I didn't expect to see you two struggling underwater."
If Chalcedony's face showed a touch of helplessness and regret.
"It's a pity that my companion was already covered with parasites and there was no need to save him. I had no choice but to bring you here to repay your previous kindness."
I knew that the reason why this guy saved me was probably because Wang Wangyang and I saved his life before, so he repaid the favor.
But I am also grateful to Zhuge Chalcedony. If it hadn't been for him, I would have been left underground by the white worm below.
Zhuge Chalcedony worked quickly and quickly. He got up from the ground and walked straight to the square hole without caring about his own body. The moment he approached the cave entrance, a thunderous roar came from inside.
Zhuge Chalcedony's face didn't show any change in expression when he heard the sound. He just huddled by the wall and listened carefully.
"There is a sound. I don't mean the roar of the beast, but the calls for help we heard on the ground before. Come and listen. Did I hear it correctly?"
As soon as these words came out, all of us were stunned.
Cui Hao was the first to react and put his ear against the wall as instructed by Zhuge Chalcedony. Remember to listen to the sounds inside.
The next second his expression changed drastically, he suddenly raised his head and stared at us incredulously.
"There are indeed sounds inside, the same calls for help we heard before. Why are they inside the wall?"
Zhuge Chalcedony was quite calm and pointed at the wall and knocked on it.
"The speed of sound transmission in a solid body is farther and wider than that in the air, so you can hear weak calls for help here. This means that the people we are looking for are most likely to be here. Front."
After Zhuge Chalcedony finished speaking, he strode directly into the hollow, obviously deciding to go inside to see the situation.
We looked at each other and knew that staying here was not a long-term solution. The best way now was to follow in and maybe find a way out.
None of us thought twice and followed him directly into the hollow. As soon as we stepped into it, the roar of the beast continued to echo in our ears.
Obviously this thing was extremely angry at our arrival, but it could only roar in waves, but never rushed towards us.
I listened carefully to the roaring sound in front of me. The sound was not far or close to us. It seemed to have stayed at the original place without any movement.
"That thing is probably trapped by something. It can't move at all. It can only make sounds to scare us."
Cui Hao rolled his eyes and immediately judged the current situation, and then immediately called on the rest of us to speed up and follow, so that we no longer have to worry about the monsters in the cave.
I used a flashlight to illuminate the road ahead. The road was quite flat and was obviously carved manually.
In addition to this, we also saw some blood stains and even scratch marks on the ground vehicle.
Cui Hao's eyes were sharp, and he saw several claw marks on the wall directly in a corner of the wall, which were imprinted on the wall with blood.
"What's going on? This angle is a little weird."
Normal people would never press their palm prints at such a low position, and keep their fingers pointed forward.
Such marks will only appear when a person is lying down. Cui Hao imitated the mark of the palm on the wall, lay on the ground, and then moved forward a few steps.
His expression immediately became strange.
"What did you find?"
I curiously walked over to Cui Hao. He got up from the ground with a surprised expression, and then pointed to the handprints on the wall.
"Based on the traces of blood on the ground and my study of the directions of the handprints while lying on the ground, I think that person was dragging his body and crawling forward, so he left the traces on the wall. Such marks are enough to prove that this person was in danger here and also lost the ability to move."
Cui Hao frowned and stared at the blood on our ground, his face full of confusion.
"I still have some knowledge about medical treatment. Look at this large amount of blood. If a person loses so much blood and continues to lose blood, then his body will gradually lose control, which means it is impossible to Keep crawling forward."
Cui Hao grabbed my arm, raised the flashlight and pointed it in front of me. The range of illumination quickly lit up the area dozens of meters in front of us.
The ground at this time was empty and flat, and we did not find any traces of pedestrians on it.
"Look, if it were me, losing so much blood would be very slow. Then there is a high probability that after I crawl forward for dozens of meters, I will definitely not be able to crawl anymore. Then there should be corpses in that direction. But there is nothing, which is really weird.”
I also understood what Cui Hao meant. I unconsciously looked up at the passage in front of his finger, and vaguely noticed something strange.
But now the arrow is on the string and must be fired. We are all standing here, so we must go inside to see the situation.
I turned around to ask for their opinions, and several of them firmly stated that even if there were indeed other monsters ahead, they would have to go in and explore the situation.
But since we already know that there is something weird ahead, we must take precautions.
I picked up Shang Fang's sword and walked in front of everyone to clear the way for them.
As for the rear of the team, Zhuge Chalcedony's man came to take the rear.
I moved forward slowly, and kept carefully observing the blood marks under my feet. The further I moved forward, the more blood marks on the messy palms around me.
In addition, there seems to be an extra palm print here, which is slightly louder than the previous one, and the fingers are a bit thicker.
"It seems that there should be another person lying on the ground here, joining the crawling queue of the guy just now."
Cui Hao narrowed his eyes slightly, stared ahead warily, and carefully explained to us.
"Be careful. There is still no body dozens of meters ahead. This must be wrong. There must be something wrong."
As we were slowly moving forward, the overwhelming roaring sound around us became louder, and based on our experience, it was obvious that we were only a few dozen meters away from this monster.
I took a deep breath and couldn't help but speed up and move forward, preparing to catch the thing off guard.
There was a corner ahead, and I immediately turned around and moved to the corner. I directly raised Shang Fang's sword and pointed it in front and slashed hard.
Although I didn't see clearly what was in front of me, I still took precautions in advance to avoid a head-on attack around the corner.
However, I cut it empty. There was nothing around the corner, but a huge creature appeared directly in front of me when the flashlight illuminated it.
This thing was covered in downy hair, with yellow hair covering its body. This creature was lying on the ground with its back facing our direction.
At this time, he still made a low roar from his mouth, which was obviously a sound he made when he was threatening his prey.
As we arrived, this thing slowly turned its head. Its head was nearly one meter wide, and its eyes were as big as copper bells. When it saw us, it roared and turned around suddenly, and immediately rushed towards us. .
But after this guy moved a few times, I discovered that there was a palm-thick copper chain wrapped around his neck. Because the chain was tightly restraining his neck, this guy couldn't break free and had to be forced. Trapped in the cave, unable to launch subsequent attacks on us.
I breathed a sigh of relief. Cui Hao was right. This thing really couldn't attack us. Its position had always been fixed in the hole directly in front of us.
It’s just that I noticed that the bloody handprints we just saw seemed to have turned a corner and then crawled directly in the direction of the beast.
At this time, there were some tattered clothes scattered around the beast, and there was a pool of blood overflowing from the corner of his mouth, and there were even blood drops dripping from under his hair.
I have no doubt that those guys who came here in advance have been eaten by the monster in front of them, but I can't figure out why they didn't resist and just sent themselves into the mouth of the monster.
There were even some who were seriously injured and crawled over on their own. What on earth were they bewitched by?
