Survival on Mars Live

Chapter 64 In-depth
Chen Mulin stood at the entrance of the cave, hesitating.

Are you going in?

Or retreat?
Undoubtedly, returning from a long distance now can guarantee a safe return to the base.

But I was very curious, I wanted to know what was inside, but I was afraid of danger.

In the end, reason still failed to overcome curiosity, and Chen Mulin decided to explore this cave.

The so-called life and death are fate, wealth and honor are in the sky, people can decide some things, but they can't change the final outcome.

If you really encounter any ferocious beasts, it depends on God's will. Even if you don't encounter them now, you will encounter them in the future. It is necessary to find out the details in advance.

"I'm going in!"

Chen Mulin greeted him and checked the time. It was close to one o'clock in the afternoon, and there was still some time before the sun went down. You can play as much as you want.

Chen Mulin took a deep breath, gained courage, and stepped into the cave.

After entering the cave, Chen Mulin looked around the cave wall.

Unlike the previous mine, this cave has no obvious excavation traces, perhaps it was too long ago, or it was formed naturally.

Anyway, this passage is tortuous, and it is absolutely impossible to excavate it manually.

On the contrary, there are some obvious traces of activity on the ground, as if something has often crawled over it.

After going deeper than 200 meters, Chen Mulin's signal became unstable, and the live broadcast was intermittent.

Looking at it like this is also annoying, so I didn't broadcast the live broadcast at all. Anyway, the signal will be interrupted as it continues to deepen.

Chen Mulin stopped and said to the water friends: "Dear friends watching the live broadcast, because the signal is not stable when going deep into the cave, in order to avoid reducing the viewing experience, there will be a very long commercial time, see you tonight!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for them to launch a barrage to resist, he directly cut the live broadcast screen back to the base and asked them to count the rice.

Finally, one of the bullet screens that Chen Mulin saw looked like this.

[Nima, let us count the rice again! 】

……

Out of sight, out of mind, even if you see it, you don't see it. Now I feel relaxed.

Chen Mulin used a searchlight to illuminate the depths. Since the passage was curved, he could see that the distance was not far away, so he had to keep going.

After going about 50 meters deeper, Chen Mulin found that the passage began to slope. Due to the angle, it was not obvious, but he could feel it slightly.

Chen Mulin muttered to himself: "Could it be that this cave leads to a deeper underground?"

Do you want to go deeper?

Now that it has been several hundred meters deep, Chen Mulin tried it, but the signal was completely cut off, neither the live broadcast room nor the detection vehicle outside could connect.

If I knew I was going to go into such a deep cave, I would have prepared a signal repeater before coming back. At least there is a signal, and I can ask Xuannv when I encounter something I don’t understand.

Now that we have entered such a deep place, it is not good to give up halfway, so we have to keep going.

Then go deeper, and the angle of inclination increases significantly. According to the existing equipment, it is already 30 meters deep underground.

As he walked, Chen Mulin stopped, and the searchlight shone forward.

There was a fork, and I don't know a fork, there are as many as five, scattered in every corner.

Chen Mulin stepped forward, and found that the first fork was at a [-]-degree downward angle, and even the searchlights couldn't reach the bottom, it was an abyss.

Then there is the second one, which also extends downwards, and the angle is similar to the previous one. This one can illuminate the end, but then I am just another corner.

Of the remaining three, one of them collapsed, one of the other two was slowly sloping downward, and the other was slowly sloping upward, similar to the passageway that came in.

"Which fork should I choose?"

"Or are you going to return from a long distance now?"

Chen Mulin fell into deep thought.

Obviously, it is impossible to choose between the two [-]-degree downwards. Except for the collapsed one, there is only one choice.

Among them, the upward passage seems to be the safest, but it is very likely to be another exit, perhaps leading to the other end of the mountain range, and one accidentally crosses it.

If you choose this, it is very likely that you will go for nothing.

So now there is only one path left, which is the most suitable way to go down.

Chen Mulin looked at the last fork, gritted his teeth and made up his mind, and after marking the entrance passage, he plunged in.

Afterwards, Chen Mulin went through a lot of side roads. The situation was similar to the previous ones. Chen Mulin always chose the best way to go down.

……

An hour later, Chen Mulin couldn't remember how far it was. Anyway, the depth showed that it was 300 meters underground.

"Record, now I have penetrated an unknown distance. This place is like a maze, with passages extending in all directions, and I can't remember how many forks there have been!"

"Fortunately, I didn't go through the same fork repeatedly, that is to say, I didn't go in circles. This is the only good news right now."

Chen Mulin continued to go deeper while recording the information.

Suddenly, Chen Mulin found that the concentration of carbon dioxide here began to decrease. Although the oxygen content remained unchanged, the proportion of other gases was steadily increasing.

There must be something here that has changed the composition ratio of the atmosphere here, maybe it is the creature that destroyed the No. [-] unmanned exploration vehicle.

Chen Mulin couldn't help clenching the shovel in his hand, and became more vigilant about his surroundings, for fear that an unknown creature would suddenly pounce on him in the next second.

He slowed down and walked forward slowly, looking at the top of the passage from time to time.

Many horror film and television works are filmed like this, and something will suddenly fall from the top, or something will crawl on it and watch it.

In this way, influenced by the film and television works he had watched before, he put most of his attention on them.

Suddenly, Chen Mulin thumped, as if he had stepped on something, his heart beat fast, and his eyes widened.

"Damn, you won't be so unlucky, will you?"

Sure enough, those unscrupulous movies are harmful to people, what is not good to make, but making such a thing is misleading people, wouldn't it be good to make more literary films?

Now Chen Mulin didn't dare to move, he was afraid that if he moved his legs, he would lose his legs.

He only felt soft under his feet, and he couldn't feel what it was through the equipment.

Recalling the moment when he stepped on it just now, because of the nerve reaction, he lifted it up a little while stepping on it.

The feeling, how should I put it, is sticky, thick, and a little wet, like stepping into the mud on a rainy day.

This is Mars. It is impossible to have such wet soil in such a dry place, and it still rains.

Of course, it is not ruled out that the environment on the surface will be humid, but the air humidity detected is still extremely low.

Excluding these possibilities, there is only one possibility, this thing is left by a Martian creature, or it is simply a creature.
