Overshadowing the sun is always a demon
Chapter 15
The water flow from the gap is not smooth, the red light seems to be drifting with the water flow, but it always moves within the same area. The movement is not like animals, but like aquatic plants.Fa Du collected himself, while tugging on Xiao Tang's sleeve, he gestured fiercely towards that side.
In fact, he didn't need to remind him at all. The weird light was too conspicuous in the pitch-black water body, and it had already attracted everyone's attention. Several people had already swam towards the glowing thing first.
Swimming against the current is not easy at all. Once they enter the gap, the feeling of the turbulent current will make people feel pain in their chests, but that little red light keeps flickering on the path they must pass, like a finger road lights.
Xiao Tang hesitated for a few seconds, then dragged Fadu to swim over there.Although Fadu couldn't swim, he could feel a little bit of being dragged all the way, just beside Xiao Tang, paddling the water meaninglessly like a humanoid pendant.
When he swam in front of him, Fa Du couldn't believe his eyes.
In front of it is a plant that grows in the crevices of the rock, like a clump of thick green seaweed, surrounded by a flower bone the size of a washbasin in the middle, the petals are white and reddish in color, just like the tender skin of a baby, and The flower stems connected to the rocks under the flowers are extremely thick, covered with blue and purple patterns like blood vessels.
It drifted with the water in the dark, and the swaying red light came from its petals.The light seems to have some kind of magical power. Once you stare at it, you will feel an inexplicable attraction to lure you over.
When it came closer, its light became more vivid and dazzling, and it turned everyone's faces flushed.
This state is reminiscent of anglerfish living in the deep sea. The dorsal fins on the top of their heads have become luminous baits to attract prey during tens of millions of years of evolution, just like small lanterns on bamboo poles. Light and dark, and then attack all kinds of creatures attracted by the light.
Although there are similar examples, the anglerfish is always an animal living on the bottom of the sea. It is neither an ocean nor an animal. In this underwater desert where no living things exist at all, its existence is particularly strange.
Alfonso and Diego are scientists after all. Although this is not their field of research, they still showed great interest and kept taking pictures around it with their underwater cameras.Strangely, the flower seemed to sense the existence of living things around it, and the messy leaves flapped gently like fish fins, and kept moving towards the person.
Xiao Tang went up and tugged Alfonso fiercely, signaling that he had to leave.
No one in this team would disobey Xiao Tang's instructions. Although the two regretted it, they did not insist, and swam past from above one after the other.Seeing the two of them passing by, Xiao Tang also dragged Fadu to swim over there.Everyone passed in turn, and finally arrived at Mazi and Amao.
Mazi held a strange-looking thing in his hand, although Fadu could probably guess that it was for self-defense, but he couldn't understand how it was used.Ah Mao held a big bag of supplies on his shoulder, and he seemed to be moving very clumsily. Fortunately, the buoyancy of the water helped him. If he was on land, no matter how burly and strong he was, he would not be able to drag the bag.
The gap was very narrow, and it was not easy for Ah Mao's big body and big net bag to pass through it, not to mention avoiding the unknown strange flower.When he squeezed hard, the net bag got stuck on the sharp stalactites on the top, and no matter how much he pulled it, it would not budge.Mazi, who was following behind, went to help pull the net bag downwards. When the net bag slipped, a pack of compressed biscuits wrapped tightly in plastic sheet suddenly fell out of it.
Both Mazi and Amao saw it and were busy fishing for it at the same time, but the water had already pushed the bag of biscuits out, hitting the strange flower just right.The strange flower trembled when it was hit, and the flickering red light suddenly disappeared, leaving only the white light from the lights above everyone's heads under the water.
Uncle Zhongyi desperately urged them with gestures, as if telling them to give up their net bags and leave immediately.
Xiao Tang's reaction was even weirder. He didn't urge the two of them like Uncle Zhongyi did, but directed everyone to move forward quickly.Xiao Tang didn't move, so Fadu couldn't move forward, so he could only half-float in the water and wait.
Unexpectedly, a dazzling green light suddenly burst out from the bottom of the water, and the petals of that strange flower began to stretch out little by little. See clearly.
In the center of the flower was actually a human face.
It was just that one look that scared Fadu's blood to the point of freezing.
The facial features of that face are clearly visible, and the expression is lifelike.It closed its eyes, as if it was in a deep sleep, and the most frightening thing was—that human face was actually green.
The people around who saw all this clearly were all stiff and unable to move, and they seemed to be stunned. Fadu hadn't recovered from the shock, only knew that Xiaotang was pulling his arm and swimming forward desperately. But in the excessive panic, he became incompetent.
At this moment, the human face suddenly opened its eyes, and its mouth slowly opened. Fadu clearly heard a sound of pain and fear from its mouth.
oh oh...
Its cry was stirring in the bottom of the water, even if the ears were covered, the sound still hit people's eardrums from all directions, as if it came from hell.The entire undercurrent channel seemed to be shaking and collapsing violently with the sound. The stalactites on the top cracked and fell inexplicably, and the bubbles stirred up blurred the vision, just like the ruins in countless treasure hunting movies that are about to collapse at the end.
Fadu didn't know how to dodge at all, he could only run around blindly, suddenly felt a heavy tug under his feet, and he couldn't break free no matter how he wanted to go up.He turned around and found that it was Ah Mao who was pulling his leg, and he was secretly relieved, and turned around to help him.Only then did he realize that those seaweed-like things were entangled with Ah Mao's legs, and were climbing upwards at an alarming speed.Not only were those things entangled, but they even produced an opposite force to drag them down desperately. No matter how hard Fadu tried, they couldn't shake them a bit, but they were dragged down bit by bit.
Xiao Tang took out the dagger from his back waist, swung the long sword that suddenly tripled in size, and slashed towards them.
Fadu thought he was going to chop the seaweeds, but then realized that the direction seemed a bit wrong.His brain was caught between lightning and flint, and he finally realized that what Xiao Tang wanted to chop was not water plants, but Ah Mao's arm!
Fadu shuddered in shock, and without knowing where he got the courage, he grabbed Ah Mao with his backhand, trying to block Xiaotang's sword.Fortunately, people's movements in the water are relatively slow and they can't use their strength. Xiao Tang temporarily withdrew his strength, and this sword only cut Ah Mao's hand, and the gushing blood instantly stained the water area red.
During the tugging, Amao's respirator had already fallen off, the entanglement of water plants, the invasion of howling and the pain of suffocation came together, but the will to survive made Amao hug Fadu's leg even more tightly, and the expression on his face Painful and ferocious, it seemed that he was determined to drag him to death together.Unexpectedly, Fadu didn't intend to kick him away at all. Instead, he held the respirator and stuffed it into his mouth, desperately trying to save him.
Xiao Tang was furious, but he had no choice but to use the sword to cut the seaweed again.
His sword is specially made, usually in the shape of a dagger on his waist, easy to carry and conceal from people's eyes and ears, just press the spring, and the hidden blade will pop out.According to the usage of weapons, the blade is on one side and is used for chopping. The sword is double-edged and is mainly used for stabbing. Xiaotang's is an exception. The blades on both sides are extremely sharp, and the inside is calm and solid. The thorns are suitable, and Fadu even saw him peeling an apple in the form of a dagger.
Such an artifact should be overkill for chopping seaweed, as the sword's edge passed, the grass shredded in unison.But he chopped fast, and the grass grew even more crazily, wrapping around Amao's waist in an instant.I saw him writhing his whole body non-stop, convulsing as if electrified, but he couldn't break free no matter what.
Fadu knew that it was very difficult to rescue him back, but he always thought that he could put his whole body in the ground for peace, so he insisted on holding him and refused to let go. At this moment, he saw Xiao Tang rushing towards the ball of seaweed very quickly. Rushing over, aiming at the center of the flower plate is a sharp stab with a sword.
The scream of that strange flower became crazy in an instant, it gave up entanglement with Amao, and turned to desperately shaking the seaweed-like leaves in an attempt to entangle Xiao Tang.
"Hmm!" Fadu knew that he was trying to divert the tiger away from the mountain, and he was worried about Xiao Tang's safety, so he let go of his hand unconsciously, only to see Xiao Tang quickly turned his head, and cut off the seaweed that was entangled with Amao with a sharp sword. Then he pulled one straight with one hand and left quickly.
While being dragged forward by Xiao Tang, Fadu saw that Amao's lifeless body was gradually covered in green, and the light above his head was swept away by the strange flower during the fight, and the white light was on the strange flower. The angry screams got farther and farther away, and finally disappeared at the end of the darkness.
It seems that that thing is indeed a plant, no matter how fierce it is, it still can't chase beyond the growing area.
Swimming against the current by one person dragging two people was hard work, so Fadu could only grab the stalactite cave wall to try to help. Those protruding stone pillars and stalagmites had thin tentacles, glittering and shining, but they were actually hard and brittle.It is easy to break when people bump into it, but it is extremely hard, and a mess of scars can be wiped out after a single knock.
The two of them walked hard for an unknown amount of time, when suddenly a messy beam of light shot down from above their heads.
Xiao Tang dragged him straight up and swam quickly, popping out of the water with a bang.Fadu's physical strength was completely overdrawn, his limbs and bones could not lift a bit of strength, and he had no strength to climb up the shore when he was lying on his stomach.
"Fadou...you...are you alright?" Seeing that he was really dying, Liushun quickly jumped into the water and pushed him up from behind.
"Huh...huh...huh...cough cough cough..." Fadu greedily breathed in the air from the outside world. At that moment, he was tired and sleepy, and he really wanted to just sleep like this and never die again. wake up.
Xiao Tang dragged Amao onto the bank from the other side, and sat on the bank with a slap, panting non-stop.Everyone gathered around immediately, discussing something in a low voice.Seeing Alfonso approaching and wanting to see how Amao is doing, Xiao Tang stood up abruptly, pushed him away heavily, and ordered sternly, "Don't touch him!"
In fact, he didn't need to remind him at all. The weird light was too conspicuous in the pitch-black water body, and it had already attracted everyone's attention. Several people had already swam towards the glowing thing first.
Swimming against the current is not easy at all. Once they enter the gap, the feeling of the turbulent current will make people feel pain in their chests, but that little red light keeps flickering on the path they must pass, like a finger road lights.
