dark……
It seems like an endless darkness!
Ye Qiong and Qing Zhi, with Huahuangji and the soldiers behind them, walked close to the right wall of the big cave towards the location of the lantern arrow in the distance.
You can see the wall on the right side of the light arrow area, but the space on the left is completely dark.
The current formation has also undergone some changes. The two warriors holding torches have moved from the front to the left side, and the two warriors holding torches still follow the team.
Judging from the condition of the large cave entrance, the diameter of the cave is estimated to be about thirty meters.
However, with only torches and torches as light sources, it was impossible to see what the wall on the right looked like.
Ye Qiong's current plan is to move forward for a certain distance to see what is inside this big hole. If it is too deep, just turn back from the left side. With the current overall combat effectiveness of the small team, it is not suitable to go too deep.
"Hiss...hiss..."
Just after everyone continued to walk forward for about fifty meters, Ye Qiong suddenly sniffed and seemed to smell an unusual smell.
"hiss……"
Qing Zhi also took a sharp breath: "Did you smell a smell...a bit fishy..."
We are now about twenty meters away from the glowing lantern arrow in front of us, and we will be there after just a few more steps.
Ye Qiong suddenly frowned and stopped directly. At the same time, as Ye Qiong gently raised his right hand, the entire team stopped!
After continuing to smell it for a few more times, Ye Qiong immediately confirmed one thing, that is, there was indeed a strange smell in the air, the fishy smell that Qing Zhi said!
What Ye Qiong immediately thought of was the feces of monsters...
In this kind of cave, even in winter, there are many magical beasts who like to live and hibernate in it. After spring, it is very likely that some magical beast populations will gather together.
However, when he was at the entrance of the big cave, Ye Qiong did not see any traces of monsters' footprints on the ground, nor was there any feces, so if there were monsters in this big hole, they must have never been out during the winter!
Now the team had to slow down. There was still an unknown dark area ahead. Ye Qiong looked back at Uncle Lang, and then stretched out his right hand at the same time.
Without any words, Uncle Wolf immediately understood and drew a light arrow from the quiver on his back like lightning.
"Whoosh!"
Ye Qiong took a bow and shot an arrow, and immediately shot the third lantern arrow deeper into the hole!
The lantern arrow in the air ignited a small flame as the flame in the middle came into close contact with oxygen.
The bright little flame formed an arc in the big hole, and rushed into the big hole at an extremely fast speed.
"Chirp...chirp..."
Just as the lantern arrow flew forward about a hundred meters, a thin sound suddenly came from inside the big hole...
The moment the sound rang out, behind Ye Qiong and Qing Zhi, a warrior with extremely strong ears immediately moved his ears.
"Young Patriarch...there are living things inside!" The middle-aged warrior from the original tribe said with great certainty.
Although the sound coming from the big hole in front was very small, Ye Qiong had already heard it, but in terms of hearing, it was still incomparable to the middle-aged warrior from the original tribe behind.
This warrior's name is Ares, and his hearing is notoriously powerful among the tribe, a bit beyond the scope of human beings.
Ye Qiong once thought it was the kind of hearing that was a superpower. When he was at the waterfall base, Ares was mainly responsible for duty at the water channel.
Lying on the ground, he could even hear any loud sounds at the wooden house base. His hearing was really incomprehensible to ordinary people, and it was very scary.
However, this ability is sometimes an annoyance, so when you don’t need to be on duty, in winter, you will directly wear a hat with long auricles to cover your ears. In spring and summer, you will wear a hat on your ears. Stuff some cotton wool or something like that inside.
After all, sometimes, this ability is really annoying, especially at night, when whatever you want to hear or don't want to hear will go into your ears, making it impossible to fall asleep.
Ye Qiong and the other warriors could also hear the sounds in the large cave. The fine sounds sounded a bit harsh, but they could only be paused carefully.
But Ares was different. After the sound sounded in the big cave, Ares immediately confirmed that there was a living thing inside. How could he tell how big the living thing making the sound was...
Ye Qiong, who had already experienced Ares's ear power, immediately asked: "What level?"
"Chirp...chirp..."
Inside the large cave, dense sounds continued to sound, and the number seemed to be larger.
Ares's ears moved again a few times, and then he said firmly: "No rank, not big, can fly...here he comes!"
Before he finished speaking, everyone felt a smelly breeze blowing in front of them.
To be precise, it is air fluctuations, many wings flapping together, plus the kind of air fluctuations superimposed by flying!
"Retreat! Uncle Wolf, Dahuang! Put some lanterns and arrows out!"
Judging from the current situation, no matter what kind of living creatures are in this big hole, they are destined to be mortal enemies to humans. The dense sounds are louder again. Inside this big hole, there are flying creatures that live in groups. , breath inside!
Fortunately, there are no grades. Although there are more numbers, with the strength of Ye Qiong and the warriors around him who have been fighting against large bodies all year round, they can cope with the beasts without grades, at least not at the crushing level. It's still no big problem.
Although everyone was quite nervous and excited at the moment, it was a normal physiological phenomenon and there was no trace of panic.
As for the word Rhubarb, it was naturally called "Huangji" and did not have any other meaning. It was just that Ye Qiong found it interesting. No one in the tribe would think of the word Rhubarb in any other way.
After all, the tribe's canine monsters only have snow wolves, which are white and silver-gray, and there are no yellow snow wolves, so Ye Qiong doesn't have any psychological burden when he calls "Huang Funny Rhubarb".
Hua Huangji also likes to listen to it, and it feels very friendly...
Uncle Lang and Hua Huangji immediately took out a handful of lantern arrows from their backs at the same time, and then each gave a few to the soldiers around them.
Several people twisted off the wooden cover on the lantern arrow at an extremely fast speed, and then shot the lantern arrow straight ahead and to the left and right in a tacit understanding!
"Swish...swish...swish..."
There was immediately more light in the sky, and at the same time, the lantern arrow shot by Ye Qiong had already landed on the ground. The scene in front of him immediately became brighter, but he still didn't see anything around the lantern arrow.
The light of flames emitted by the lantern arrows cannot reach the sky above the big hole...
