Vermillion mole

Suddenly, the speed of the water under the feet changed, and there seemed to be a steep downward slope ahead. Everyone was careful because there were too many trees here, and it would be a serious injury if you slipped and stepped on the ground.

After walking a few steps around a big tree, the fat man exclaimed, and saw a huge strange face suddenly appearing in the dense forest on the left front, less than ten meters away from us, it was about the size of a truck head. The upper part is green and colorful, with big eyes and high nose.

The fat man turned on the miner's lamp and shone the light. The body of the stone sculpture sank into the swamp, leaving only the head, which merged with the dense forest. The bird's body in the water presented a very strange squatting posture, as if it was about to spread its wings suddenly. , like a feline gaining momentum before attacking.You can also see some strangely shaped black shadows under the water below the stone carvings. I don't know what sank there.

Then came to the bottom of the statue, the water flow became more and more urgent, everyone saw the swamp under the roots of the tree, the water flow was disordered, and the situation below was unknown, Pan Zi asked everyone to be careful that there might be some gaps in the ruins under the mud. go underground.It's like the mouth of a well.

The fat man didn't listen at all, all his attention was attracted by the stone carving on one side, on which the miner's lamp slid back and forth.

"Stand still and don't move, breathe flat." Zhu Sha said suddenly, and everyone dared not move and stood there holding their breath.At this moment, in the woods behind him, there was a sudden sound of a branch snapping. At the same time, there seemed to be a continuous sound of tree crown shaking and leaves shaking. I don't know what moved in the dense bushes.

Several people came all the way, and there was almost no sound in the forest. The sudden movement made them all startled. They all stopped and turned their heads to look back.

The canopy was dense, and apart from the huge stone sculpture with a human face and a bird body, nothing could be seen clearly, and the sound also slowly stopped.The woods quickly returned to that suffocating silence.

Looking at each other, this kind of movement must not be made by small things.It seems that there is nothing in this forest.

Zhu Sha winked at Pan Zi, pointed to his gun, and signaled Pan Zi to prepare the weapon, don't talk and dare to leave here quickly.

Pan Zi nodded, not daring to be negligent any longer, and beckoned like Fatty and Wu Xie, gathered his energy and began to observe the movement around him, then quickened his pace.

After walking two steps, the fat man suddenly let out a snort and said, "Wait!"

Wu Xie asked him what he was doing, he turned around, pointed to the stone statue of a bird with a human face behind him, and asked us, "Where did its face face just now?"

Looking at the stone sculpture, I found that the stone sculpture's face turned around at some point, and the expressionless, mossy giant face was facing us.Because it is half covered by the trees, it looks like an unknown creature hiding behind the trees and peeping.

Pan Zi swallowed, and said, "I didn't notice...but it's definitely not this side."

The fat man said: "Damn it, there is a ghost, so did it turn around by itself? Or did we touch some mechanism?"

Pan Zi stared at the stone sculpture and said, "I didn't look carefully just now, maybe this statue has two sides."

"Both sides of your head, when I left just now, I looked back several times, there is absolutely no such face on the back of the stone statue." The fat man said: "Besides, there is something wrong with this face.

Indeed, compared with the front view, the face of this stone statue makes people feel weird. It is also expressionless, but the expression on that face reveals a gloomy and resentful expression.It's shocking to see.

"Damn it, I must have turned it around by myself. Could this thing be alive?" Pan Zi said. "We've run into a rock spirit."

Wu Xie said: "We are not walking in a straight line, maybe it is a matter of angle, don't scare yourself."

The fat man scolded: "Bullshit angle, there must be something wrong with it, you are deceiving yourself and others by thinking like this."

Seeing the group of three people who were getting out of control, Zhu Sha felt a little headache. Seeing that Hupan Ziran took out his gun, loaded it, aimed it at the giant face, and wanted to shoot, Zhu Sha was startled by this move, and almost had no time to react, fat Immediately raised the gun, a bullet whistled past, hit the dipterocarp next to the stone statue, the whole tree shook, and immediately looked at the stone statue.

Zhu Sha held back her anger and said, "You idiot!"

Pan Zi felt a little offended and put the gun back, and said, "I just want to test if the stone is okay. I may have misunderstood it. The road here has sharp turns and turns. Let's go quickly, don't dawdle."

The fat man frowned, still in disbelief: "When I was on the sidelines, I worked on a lathe, and my eyes were very poisonous. How could this be wrong."

"A lathe is a lathe, here is a forest, and the references are complicated, so it's not surprising if you get it wrong." Wu Xie said.

Pan Zi urged to go quickly, but the fat man refused desperately. He asked for Pan Zi's gun, put down his equipment, and said to us: "Don't move, I'll go and have a look, just 2 minutes." direction to go.

Zhu Sha was really on the verge of getting angry, and shouted: "Fatty fat man, get out of here!"

Zhu Sha also knew the fat man's temper, so she had no choice but to let him go.Wu Xie sat down to rest, and Pan Zi scolded for trouble.

Zhu Sha snatched Pan Zi's gun and aimed at the stone statue. The fat man put the gun on his back and walked back cautiously. Halfway there, he suddenly stopped and took a step back. He didn't know what he saw.

Pan Zi was impatient and yelled at him, "What the hell are you doing? Hurry up!"

Before he finished speaking, the fat man suddenly turned around.Turned around and ran wildly, shouting at us: "It's alive! Run!" At the same time, I saw the "face" of the strange bird in the distance. His expressionless expression turned into an extremely ferocious smile.

The fat man had already rushed in front of us, didn't stop, grabbed Wu Xie and ran away, shouting: "Why are you in a daze!"

Wu Xie was taken out by the fat man for a few steps, but he still didn't react at this time. Looking back, he saw Zhu Sha fired two shots, and the stone face was shattered. something, to come out of it.

"Fucking hell!" Wu Xie cursed loudly, and started running wildly.Zhu Sha also retreated while shooting, still in the large ruins, with rocks and vines underneath, it was really difficult to speed up, Zhu Sha saw that the stone statue was not chasing, and the distance could not be seen clearly, so she withdrew her gun.

Everyone collapsed to the ground, the fat man panted like a bellows, and said with difficulty: "What's the matter? It doesn't move, could it be a mechanism?"

Wu Xie replied, "We didn't touch that thing at all, how could it be a mechanism? And the mechanism can't do that."

At this time, Pan Zi took out the binoculars from his equipment and looked in the direction of the statue. Wu Xie hurriedly asked what happened?What is it?But Pan Zi showed a very surprised expression and said, "Fuck me? Gone?"

"What?" Zhu Sha immediately snatched the binoculars and looked there, and sure enough, the back of the stone sculpture appeared in front of us, however, that ferocious face disappeared.

Before Zhu Sha could put down the binoculars, Wu Xie and Fatty snatched them away. Zhu Sha couldn't turn his head around.

"Damn it, is someone playing with us?" The fat man stood up.

They were all afraid that he would be reckless, so they immediately pulled him to sit down again. The stone was not stable here, and the fat man staggered and slipped, Zhu Sha hurried to pull him again.Inadvertently, I saw that on the boulder about ten meters away behind me, there was a huge relief of a human face, which was exactly the same as the one I saw just now. It was also looking at the front with a blank expression, like the expression of a corpse.

When Fatty and Pan Zi saw it, they immediately felt something was wrong, and stood still.The fat man said, "Damn it, it's not alive."

"More than one!" Pan Zi said, pointing to one side, Zhu Sha looked, and found that on the surrounding boulders, there were relief sculptures of human faces every now and then, some big and some small.But most of them are hidden by vines, and it's not clear if you don't look carefully. If you look carefully, you will find that the scale is astonishing.Almost everywhere.The place where we lay down was less than ten meters away, and there was a huge human face. The strange thing is that all the reliefs here are human faces, and there are no patterns of bird bodies.

Suddenly, one of the reliefs cracked open, and all the broken stones floated up.

Pan Zi yelled, "Damn it, it's a moth!"

Looking carefully, sure enough, the floating stones are all black moths. These human faces are arranged by these moths. No wonder they suddenly appear and disappear.Immediately, the human face reliefs around them began to twist and crack, and a large number of them flew into the air and scattered in all directions.

Soon the sky was almost covered with black debris. We didn’t know if these moths were poisonous. We all subconsciously covered our mouths and noses with our clothes. However, things with protective colors are generally non-toxic. Watching the moths gradually Flying away, like black petals all over the sky, it is quite sensational.

The fat man caught a few moths and said he wanted to take a closer look. He didn't know what species these moths were, but he caught a few and failed to catch them.Everyone's hearts gradually let go, and this was a false alarm.But it's not our fault, the situation is appalling.

They all stayed in place, not daring to act rashly for a while, the moths flew away one after another, leaving only a few sporadic ones.At this time, I saw that the original ruins had changed. In the place covered by the moth just now, a large area of ​​white was exposed. When I looked closely, I found that there were groups of white snake sloughs, entangled in the vines of the plants. Among them, it looked like the white intestines of some animal.

The fat man jumped down, and when he saw the vines, he picked up one and cursed. Most of the snake sloughs were rotten and riddled with holes. There are hundreds of moths in the gaps in the ruins and in the gaps between tree roots. Just now, all these moths stopped on the snake sloughs. They may be attracted by the fishy smell above. This may be the hiding place for these snakes when they shed their skins.

The corners of Zhu Sha's mouth twitched a little, she wasn't afraid of one or two.But if it's a group of... come on, you can't do it even with strafing.The fat man climbed up and showed us the snake skin he picked up. The head part of the snake skin was swollen, and the shape of a cockscomb could be seen. It is thicker than the snakes we have seen before. It seems that we cannot estimate the shape of the snakes here.

Seeing the fat man's appearance, Zhu Sha couldn't help but said: "Snake slough is a very valuable traditional Chinese medicine, which can be sold for more than [-] yuan per catty. The scale here has at least several tons of snake slough, which is very valuable! "

The fat man was taken aback, and asked Wu Xie with the snake slough, "Xiao Wu, this thing is really valuable:"

Wu Xie nodded without hesitation, and the fat man sighed regretfully: "It's a pity, I can't take so many fat masters away. I can't sell any of them for a good price. Maybe you are with me after I go out, little fairy?" Come and pretend to go home?"

Zhu Sha didn't know whether to laugh or cry, Pan Zi touched the snake's skin and said, "This skin is still very tough, it seems that it has just shed. This is where they shed their skin. Snakes usually shed their skin in places they think are safe. If they meet two or more, they will think that their territory has been violated the most, and they will definitely attack us. I don’t think it is suitable to stay here for a long time.”

Zhu Sha nodded: "Pan Zi is right, even if there is no snake, we can't delay here, too much time has been wasted."

Immediately after that, he set off and walked out of the area in a hurry, expecting to encounter at least one or two snakes, but the process went surprisingly smoothly and nothing was found.Thinking about it, it seems that snakes are rarely seen during the day. It seems that these snakes are nocturnal animals, which also shows that this forest will definitely be very lively at night.

After re-entering the rain forest, the feeling of covering the sky and the sun came again. After walking like this for four or five hours, I obviously felt that the terrain was lowered, and the water flow in the swamp was turbulent. know where.

Pan Zi took out the dry food, and continued to move forward while eating. Not long after, he finally encountered a waterfall, a fault that suddenly lowered the ground, and I don't know what ancient relic it was.

After passing the waterfall, the whole person was soaked, and there was another cave under the waterfall. The water seemed to seep into the ground, and the vegetation became more dense. After moving forward for a certain distance, I lost my sense of direction.

Their smoke thinned out quickly, and even if they adjusted the compass, they were worried that they would go too far, so Pan Zi had to stop and climb up a tree to find out the direction.

As soon as Pan Zi rolled over, Wu Xie and Fatty leaned against the tree to catch their breath.But it didn't take long for Pan Zi to point out the direction. Dao was already close to Wu Sansheng and the others, and then let everyone continue to move forward.

The surrounding scenery was monotonous, and there was nothing to talk about, so the fat man looked at the things in the water, and asked me: "Little fairy, Xiao Wu, you said that these waters flooded the dilapidated house, do you still have any bright objects?"

Zhu Sha shook her head: "Don't even think about bright utensils, there are still pots and pans."

Wu Xie asked the fat man, "What do you want to do? Are your hands itchy again?"

The fat man hurriedly said: "It doesn't itch, it doesn't itch, how can you look at you and me with a non-developmental perspective, our goal this time is to get a big ticket, and I will retire when I get the things, which is worth a lot For a few dollars, we have to find something that can be put up for auction in the Beijing Hotel.”

Zhu Sha splashed cold water and said, "You better stop daydreaming, things that don't usually sell for 1000 million won't appear there."
