Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"It's so unlucky that I encountered him."

The three of them yelled and yelled and ran away. Black Ma and Baima were not afraid of the wind and rain, and continued to splash in the wind and rain, making their bodies muddy.

At this moment, the three of them saw a cave in front of them.

"Go over there and take shelter from the rain."

When the three of them ran into the cave, there were already people in the cave.

Kaka——

More than a dozen guns were pointed at Chen Zhao and the three of them, and the three of them immediately raised their hands in fear.

"Uh...put your guns down." Carol waved her hand.

The members of the expedition team also saw clearly that they were Chen Zhao and the other three.

"Three of you, I really didn't expect to meet again."

The three of them were really scared to death. Even Chen Zhao couldn't guarantee whether these dozen military automatic assault rifles would kill anyone if they suddenly hit them.

"Come in, it's raining so hard, and you have nowhere to go."

The mountains and forests are already in a warm zone, and the air is humid. Coupled with the rain, the body loses moisture very quickly, and the water takes away the heat.

No matter how strong a person is, he will have to lie down if he is exposed to rain all night in this environment.

"Thank you, three of you."

Although they had taken the initiative to avoid this team before, no one could have imagined that they would meet here again.

Now they can only bite the bullet and enter the cave. After all, they really have nowhere to hide.

"Come here and take off your coat to dry it." Carol said very considerately.

The coats worn by the three of them are all waterproof, but wearing coats all the time is really uncomfortable.

The three of them took off their coats. At this time, the tall woman saw Chen Zhao's figure and whistled.

"What a great figure."

Risfall and Dell were unconvinced. They were actually in good shape.

It's just that Chen Zhao's figure is really beautiful. Finidi kept swallowing her saliva when she saw Chen Zhao's lines.

However, Finetti's words aroused dissatisfaction among her companions. A man in a vest glanced at Chen Zhao: "No matter how beautiful you are, what's the use? This body may not even be able to withstand a punch from me."

"Okay, haven't you just boxed in the middle-heavyweight category for two years? What's there to be proud of when you beat an outsider?" Finidi glared at her companion.

Chen Zhao was too lazy to pay attention to them, so he just sat next to them and warmed themselves by the fire.

Carol brought a bottle of wine to the three of them: "Here, drink some vodka, it will keep you warm."

The three of them all took a few sips and felt a lot warmer indeed.

"Are you really not some illegal gang?"

"I said, we are a private expedition team. Of course, we can also be called a treasure hunt team." Carol smiled.

"Then what are you looking for here?" Chen Zhao asked curiously.

Although this place is deep in the mountains and old forests, it is only a hundred kilometers away from the city. What treasures can be found so close to a densely populated area?

"I can't tell you this." Carol smiled.

"Then where have you been before?"

“I’ve been to a lot of places, almost all of the six continents,” Carroll said.

"But you are holding a gun and a knife, will you encounter any danger?" Lisfar asked curiously.

"Let me tell you a story." At this time, a middle-aged man said: "It happened twelve years ago. At that time, our team didn't have so many people. It was just me, Professor Carroll, and four guys. We discovered an ancient Indian relic in Australia..."

"What remains of the ancient Indians in Australia?" Risfall asked in confusion.

In his impression, Australian Indian clans had always been relatively backward, even primitive, before the arrival of Western civilization.

Perhaps their greatest building was the tree shed.

"Don't ask me, we are an expedition team, not an archaeological team." The middle-aged man said, "Professor Carroll can make it clear."

The middle-aged man glanced at Professor Carroll, and then continued: "The ruins are underground. Judging from the craftsmanship and structure of the building, the level of civilization should be close to the ancient Egyptian civilization three thousand years ago. We have been exploring the ruins. After exploring the deepest part, we found a blue diamond as big as a fist.”

"Haha...that's too exaggerated, a blue diamond as big as a fist?" Dale laughed.

"Well, if you don't believe it, just treat it as a fictional story." The middle-aged man had a good temper and continued: "We were ecstatic at the time and were about to come out wearing the gems. We met Incomprehensible creatures, six-legged reptiles with slender bodies, and then they started attacking us crazily."

"Our equipment at the time was not good. There were six of us in the group, and we only had four pistols and a few sabers. We started to escape desperately, and the monsters were chasing us. Later, we didn't know who triggered the mechanism, and the entire underground ruins began to collapse. , Professor Carroll and I finally escaped, but the other four companions, together with the blue diamond, could never see the light of day again."

Risfall and Dale were a little unconvinced: "Professor Carroll, is everything he said true?"

"That's not the only case." Professor Carroll said: "Although it sounds incredible to you ordinary people, in these years, we have traveled around and encountered strange things and strange creatures. For example, once our team accepted an invitation from the Chinese government and participated in an exploration of a cave, and we encountered plants that would attack people inside, and we lost three people that time."

"Is it really that scary?"

"Another time, we found an imperial tomb in Thailand. We encountered some mummy dolls in the imperial tomb, and those mummy dolls also attacked us."

"Then what are you looking for here this time?"

"Did you know that this mountain forest was once a weapons testing site sixty years ago?"

The three of them shook their heads. They had never heard of this at all.

"We got a piece of news from a lunatic in a mental hospital. When the military was conducting weapons experiments here, they accidentally exploded a crypt. Some terrible creatures began to emerge from the crypt, and those creatures attacked the military camp. , less than one in ten survivors, and almost all suffer from mental illness.”

"You mean, we are in that weapons testing site now?" Dale swallowed and said with a stiff smile.

"Those creatures seem to be territorial, or they are restricted for some reason and cannot leave the cave too far. As long as they don't go beyond the edge, they are generally fine. The deeper you go, the greater the number of those creatures."

Woof woof woof——

At this moment, Black Horse and White Horse outside the cave suddenly started barking.

Chen Zhao immediately stood up and walked to the entrance of the cave, where Heima and Baima were barking into the darkness.

"Heima, Baima, did you find anything?"

"There's something over there."
