infinite maze

"The monsters here are very strange. Each one has a unique voice, as if each one is an independent individual." Mei Ziyi said that she heard the sound of scratching the wall, plus the previous gasps and whispers, It happened to be the three monsters they encountered so far.

Regardless of the meaning of these unique voices, the exploration of the four must continue, even if the crisis is still intensifying.

Because of the addition of a climbing monster, it was more difficult for the four of them to move. They often had to turn on the lights to force the monster back after taking a few steps. The two monsters attacked back and forth, very persistent, and even moved faster as time went .

It was five o'clock in the afternoon, and the team of four explored the tunnel for only 3000-[-] meters. During this time, they found two doors, but Mei Ziyi heard the sound of teeth grinding behind one of the doors, and although the other door had no sound, it It was also judged as the death gate by Yun Cishu with a watch.

Night is coming, and the sunrise and sunset in the labyrinth world are very regular, six o'clock in the morning and six o'clock in the evening.

Just as Liu Puzhen was sweating on his forehead, his hand groped for a gap in the darkness. Liu Puzhen was stunned for a moment, and then exulted, "I found it!"

Turn on the headlights, and after the four confirmed the location of the Shimen, Mei Ziyi and Yun Cishu both confirmed that the door was safe, but they did not rush to open the door, but wrote down the location of the Shimen.

"One door is not enough, it's better to have two, don't go in unless it is absolutely necessary." Yun Cishu put the canned box in front of the stone door as a mark, and then continued to lead the people to explore the tunnel.

When the four people cooperated tacitly to explore the maze, the other five-member team was not so harmonious.

As Liu Puzhen thought before, Bai Sisi, Wan Chi, Fang Zhou, and Lu Zhenxin are all smart people, and the characteristic of smart people is that they have too many thoughts, and these thoughts will not be revealed at the beginning until they encounter irresolvable differences , or unequal risk sharing.

Liu Waiqing looked expressionlessly at the four of them arguing about the power of the headlights, and finally decided to use the headlights in turn. He couldn't help but roll his eyes secretly. If Yuncishu was there, he would definitely use one to determine the battery life first. Then to be on the safe side, each headlight uses about 80.00% of the electricity.

Acting with four people like this, not to mention safety issues, is sure to be tiring. There are too many things to think about, and you have to be careful of the people around you.So he shouldn't have stepped on the first elevator out of fear of embarrassment.

Due to various reasons, Liu Waiqing walked at the front of the team. There was no other way. The result of everyone's discussion was that the old man walked at the head and tail of the team. Among the old players, there were only two men. This newcomer received an extra share of support, so Liu Waiqing, who was isolated and helpless, became the one who was excluded.

Liu Waiqing smiled and showed two dimples, "Okay, it's just what I want."

The other four remained silent, wondering if Liu Waiqing was really prepared, or if he was pretending to be calm.

In fact, Liu Waiqing provided many clues from inferring the independence of the two teams, to looking for the exit downwards, and then to groping for the door in the dark, but smart people would think this way, and it was only a matter of time before they could think of these things themselves.

Liu Waiqing turned off the headlight with a snap, and everything around him was so dark that it seemed to have disappeared, but the real touch of the cool wall could still be felt from his fingertips, indicating that they were still in the mine.

There was a rattling sound, as if someone had a problem with the trachea, making a series of strange sounds.That voice sounded from the darkness along with the sound of breathing like a broken bellows, and came straight towards the crowd.

When others were plunged into darkness, the world in Liu Waiqing's eyes was different, as if wearing night vision goggles, most of the area was dark red, not far away, a humanoid monster crawled from the depths of the tunnel come over.

That's right, it crawled out. Although the thing had a basic human appearance, it didn't walk upright, but crawled on the ground like a wild beast.His skin was pale, his hair was almost gone, his eyes were only white, and he was approaching quickly.

What is this?Liu Waiqing couldn't give the definition of this thing for a while, so when the thing was two steps away from him, he raised his hand and turned on the headlight.Startled by the light, the monster rushed back into the darkness with a scream.

The impact of such a picture is too strong, and the four people behind are all shocked in place, especially Fang Zhou and Lu Zhenxin, who face the maze chaser for the first time, feel that the three views are being refreshed, and the panic is inevitably lingering.

"I don't want to be the second one." Fang Zhou burst into tears, and seemed to be terrified. With her delicate and lovely face, she looked pitiful.

But apart from the two people at the head and the tail, Bai Lulu who was walking in the middle had no intention of comforting her at all. Obviously, Bai Lulu also couldn't judge the identity of the pursuer based on a single face-to-face, so naturally she didn't have the confidence to subdue the pursuer.

"How about I trade with you?" the upstart asked.

Fang Zhou kept silent, how much difference can the second and penultimate one have?

Seeing that the other four people were getting ready, Liu Waiqing turned off the headlights after a reminder. In the darkness, the rattling sound resounded again, making everyone's scalp go numb.

The five-member team advanced for a while in this way, and Liu Waiqing stopped, "Is it time to change the headlights? I conservatively estimate that it took half an hour."

"It's only half an hour. Since it's a miner's lamp, the battery life must be more than one or two hours." Fang Zhou knew very well that he was the second to use the headlight, but he always thought that it would be a little slower. one cent.

Liu Waiqing stretched out his hand to Fang Zhou, "The endurance of the headlights does not conflict with our previous decision to use headlights in turn, or you want to walk ahead in person."

Seeing this, Bai Lulu and Wan Chi didn't make a sound. Although they wanted to test how long the headlights should be used, Liu Waiqing was too calm, so it's better not to provoke them easily.

Fang Zhou bit his lip, and finally exchanged headlights with Liu Waiqing, "Sorry, I was too nervous, I never thought I would face such a situation."

Liu Waiqing changed the headlight, "It's okay, I've seen a lot."

I don't know what it means to say it because I've seen it too much, but it successfully dispelled Fang Zhou's desire to continue talking.

A group of people groped in the dark, but Liu Waiqing soon discovered that as the time approached night, the monster's action speed became faster and faster. Their headlights have been used for an average of an hour and a half, and this is starting to make them feel nervous.

Of course, during the smearing operation, everyone found a death door and a safety door. A battery and some food supplies were obtained from the safety door, and everyone rested inside for three hours.In addition, there was a photo on the wall inside the security door, which was a photo of Ah Shu and another woman. Everyone speculated that the woman should be A Xiu.

When the fourth round of headlights was about to be replaced, Liu Waiqing touched the switch of the headlights with his hand, and was about to turn on the lights, when he suddenly felt a push behind him, and he collided with the monster two steps away.

In an instant, the rattling sound in the darkness disappeared, and the surrounding was extremely quiet.

Fang Zhou's trembling voice sounded, "Sorry, sorry, I accidentally tripped over it, are you okay?"

Liu Waiqing in front gave a low hum, stood there and waited for Fang Zhou to catch up, then continued to move forward slowly.

The four people behind were slightly surprised that the giggling sound disappeared?And what just happened?

The further she walked, the more cold sweat broke out on Fang Zhou's hands. She felt that Liu Waiqing in front of her was a little strange, she seemed to have become a little hunched and thinner, but the surroundings were too dark, even if she was just one step away, she couldn't Can barely see the shadow.

"Liu Waiqing, are you alright?" Bai Lulu who was walking in the middle also realized something was wrong, and asked in a low voice.

But what responded to her was only a series of giggling voices, which were at the head of the line, very close to them.

Fang Zhou touched the top of his head with trembling hands, and finally couldn't help turning on the light. Afterwards, there was a burst of screaming and crazily retreating. The person walking in front of the team was no longer Liu Waiqing, but a bluish-white monster with a hunched body. After the light came on, he fled to the darkness as he did at first.

On the other side, Liu Waiqing, who was touched by the monster, only felt that his shoulder was lightly patted. In the blink of an eye, he changed another space. This is a tunnel. His eyes can see at night, even if he doesn’t Headlights can also see around.

The giggling monster was gone, and there was a corpse lying on the ground not far away. The corpse had already been skeletonized, and the clothes on his body were rotten and brittle, but even so, it could be recognized that it was a miner's uniform.

Liu Waiqing reached out to turn on the headlight and went up to examine carefully, and found that the corpse was not skeletonized, but dried out, and the muscles and skin were tightly attached to the bones, which made it look like a skeleton.Moreover, this person has slender bones, unlike a miner who has worked all year round.

Opening the backpack, I found that there were some equipment that could not be used for a long time, ropes, batteries, empty water bottles, detectors, and a notebook.

"On May 5, the rescue team dispersed, and I was trapped alone in the collapsed tunnel. I don't know how long the oxygen can last."

"On May 5, did the watch break down? It felt like the time slowed down a lot. No one came to rescue me."

"On May 5, what exactly did we save?"

"On May 5, there was no water, and I couldn't breathe. I didn't want to suffocate or die of thirst. Who will save me?"

"On May 5, it's all their fault, why did you save that woman!"

After that, the notes were drawn in a mess. Obviously, the person who took the notes had no way to concentrate. The palm-sized notebook was filled with the words "dead" and "alive".

woman? !The first thing Liu Waiqing could think of was Axiu. Is Axiu actually in the mine?And it looks like he was rescued by the rescue team?Neither the coal boss nor the villagers mentioned that someone from the rescue team disappeared in the mine.

Searching through the corpse again, but not finding any other clues, Liu Waiqing got up to check the space he was in. As written in the notebook of the rescue team, this is a tunnel and a dead end. The direction of the exit collapsed, covered by a lot of rubble and mud blocked the way.

Liu Waiqing took out the folding shovel in his backpack and dug straight away. It was getting dark, and who knew what would happen to this dried corpse after dark.
