Doomsday Drifting Begins with Shipbuilding

Chapter 218 Entering the Esophagus
At this moment, Chen Xuan was staring at the front, a little dazed.

In front of him is a strange wall of flesh, different from the smooth walls of flesh elsewhere, this wall of flesh has many huge wrinkles, like a series of tightly closed gaps, and is slightly sunken inwards.

In the past period of time, Chen Xuan followed the direction of the water flow and found this location. According to speculation, this should be the connection between the esophagus and the stomach of the sea beast.

It's just that it's closed right now.

Chen Xuan once tried to pry it open, but no matter how hard he tried, the gap in front of him showed no sign of opening.

He could only wait for the sea beast to eat next time before this place would open, and then he could take the opportunity to go out.

According to his observation during this period, the sea beasts would only eat once every three hours. Chen Xuan looked at his watch, and there was more than an hour left.

This time cannot wait.

Taking advantage of this time, Chen Xuan modified and rested the "Kunpeng".

He first consumed 10 units of "bioplastic" to install a transparent wall on the cab as a windshield for the cab, so that not only would it not block the view, but completely sealing the cab would make him safer.

Considering that he was going to climb in the esophagus of sea beasts, Chen Xuan replaced all six racket sticks with crab claws, and he also replaced the eagle claws.

Although the eagle claw has four claw hooks, because of this, using the eagle claw to grab things is not as strong as the crab claws like pliers.

The sea beast's esophagus has nowhere to rely on, only the densely packed fangs can be grasped by him, and the crab claws are naturally more suitable.

After completing the modification of the "Kunpeng", he checked the crops he had planted before.

Since he sealed these places before, these crops were not greatly affected, but some seedlings were still shaken out of the soil. Fortunately, he planted them back in time, so the problem is not big.

And although there was no sunshine for two days, these crops did not die, but they did not continue to grow.

In addition to repairing the ship, Chen Xuan also collected some "oil" on the nearby sea.

It seems that because the sea beast's stomach acid breaks down the fat of the fish, much of the fish oil is released from the fat into the water.

This is really cheap for Chen Xuan. He just circled around the sea and collected 152 units of oil with ease.

If he wasn't afraid of going too far and losing his way, he estimated that he could collect twice as much.

In addition, there are some metal fragments. The sea beast's stomach is quite rich in resources. If it wasn't because he didn't want to hold it in and worried about what would happen if he continued to delay, he really wanted to collect one or two units of metal before leaving.

After smelting the collected metals, the few metal resources he had left due to the activation of the "portable combat module" and "ancient combat module" had accumulated to 143 units at this moment.

Chen Xuan really wanted to find another module to activate it, but he looked at his watch and found that there were about 5 minutes left before the sea beast's next meal.

Soon.

Chen Xuan didn't dare to do anything else, for fear of missing the opportunity for the esophagus to open.

Gradually, Chen Xuan found that the seawater under him began to flow towards the rear, and at the same time, the center of gravity of the hull was also moving backward.

It seems that the state of the sea beast is no longer swimming horizontally, but is gradually rising.

But in this way, he was far away from the position of the entrance of the passage.

This will not work.

Chen Xuan quickly mobilized the crab claws on the six racket sticks, caught them on the edge of the wrinkle in front of his eyes, and the sea water gradually pulled away from the bottom of the boat.

At this moment, all the poles of the "Kunpeng" were lifted up, and they were clamped together in one position, hanging the boat firmly on the stomach wall, like a hanging basket.

Soon, Chen Xuan faintly heard a tidal sound coming from the other side of the meat wall.

The sea beast's feeding has begun.

The sound became louder and louder, from being inaudible at first, to now it sounded like thunder in my ears.

The next second, I saw a squirm in the originally closed gap, and then it was washed away by a huge and thick torrent, and the torrent almost rubbed against the "Kunpeng" and poured down, looking like a waterfall.

There was a strong chill in the torrent, and in addition to a large number of fish and shrimp, you could even see some crushed ice.

This scene made Chen Xuan thoughtful.

It seems that the sea beasts still haven't left the ice sea area.

Moreover, all kinds of things swallowed by sea beasts are pouring in, and the impact is too great to be an opportunity.

Wait, wait, wait.

Chen Xuan opened his eyes wide and watched the situation closely.

He really wanted to intercept some materials from the torrent, but the flow was so fast that he couldn't capture it in time. He could only watch countless materials fly by in front of him.

Gradually, the water flow from the esophagus began to weaken, and the passage also showed signs of contraction.

It's now!

The six crab claws on the deck started to move with a "creak", and the three crab claws on the left side of the ship stuck out like lightning, firmly grasping the other side of the passage.

Then I saw these crab claws pulled hard, and the entire hull of the "Kunpeng" quickly entered the passage, and then, the three crab claws on the right side of the ship were also caught on the meat wall on the right side, and the "Kunpeng" "fixed.

At this time, the passage just closed behind him.

Chen Xuan wiped the sweat from his forehead.

This step seemed easy, but it consumed a lot of his mental strength. It was really not that easy to lift the "Kunpeng" as a whole.

However, this is only the first step in the journey of thousands of miles.

What was in front of his eyes at the moment was a long, dark corridor covered with fangs, with a diameter of nearly six meters.

I came back here again, even though I had seen it once before, the densely packed teeth in my field of vision still made Chen Xuan's scalp tingle for a while.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Xuan calmed down.

After the sea beast finished eating, it gradually resumed its translational state, and the center of gravity of the ship also slowly returned to the middle part.

Chen Xuan began to slowly climb forward by manipulating the four rackets.

The esophagus is not easy to grasp, the meat of the sea beast is very tough, and it is covered with slippery mucus, Chen Xuan can only grab the teeth as a foothold.

I am used to walking on two feet, but now I have to move on four, and it feels a bit awkward.

And climbing like this, every 20 minutes, Chen Xuan needs to rest for three to five minutes to recover the exhausted mental power.

The esophagus of the sea beast is probably inclined slightly downward, and Chen Xuan could feel that the center of gravity of the "Kunpeng" shifted behind the ship, but the magnitude of the shift was not very large.

Fortunately, the structure of this sea beast's esophagus is different from that of a human, otherwise, if it was completely vertical, it would have to bear the weight of the entire ship, which would be exhausting.

Chen Xuan walked through the dark corridor, and he could only see the situation clearly with the help of the light of the fluorescent stick.

Fortunately, the intense light emitted by the "Kunpeng" injected light energy into the light stick when it was advanced, otherwise the light stick might not be bright now.

Before he knew it, nearly three hours had passed, but he still hadn't seen the end of the esophagus.

Chen Xuan looked at his watch and frowned.

It's almost time for the sea beast to eat next time.

This meant he was about to face a torrent of water coming in as the sea beasts ate.

A great challenge was placed in front of Chen Xuan.
