Ancient Gene [End Times]

He Siming broke out in a cold sweat hearing this: "Are you entangled by a snake?" No wonder Qin An's clothes are so wrinkled.

"I'm fine, the snake was killed by me, it's just..." Qin An's eyes dimmed, "The person who taught me to recognize wild vegetables is gone. When I met two snakes, I killed the snake on my side and looked back. No more."

He Siming asked Qin An to go around twice and take a closer look.

"Why are your pants torn?" He Siming patted Qin An's tailbone.

Qin An touched his butt, and sure enough, there was a hole in the position of the tailbone, and he could feel a little groove along the hole.

"Don't move yet." He Siming pulled his hand away, looked carefully at the hole, reached in and pressed the tailbone inside.

Not everyone can touch the position of the tailbone, Qin An trembled: "What's wrong?"

"You...have you grown your tail?"

"What?" Qin An was taken aback by the question without beginning or end.

"The shape and position cannot be scratched, and the snake has no thorns. It is most likely that it was protruded by your long tail."

Judging from the degree of Qin An's current mutation, the legs, feet and arms can be mutated, so it's not surprising that he mutated into a tail.

"Impossible..." Qin An stretched out his hand to touch the shape of the torn trousers. It did look a bit like a tail, but it's a bit awkward to say that a person has a long tail.

"What's impossible? Your mutation direction is a reptile. Have you ever seen any reptile without a tail?"

"Humans or primates, how many have long tails?" I read reports that there are very few tribes in Africa who have two-inch long tails, but that is extremely rare.

"Don't argue with me, I'm a professional at this." He Siming took off his backpack and dug out the needle and thread from inside, "Look at you, you're alive and kicking, you shouldn't be injured. Come on, take off your pants and sew them on for you."

There was also a hole in Qin An's underwear, so he had the nerve to take off his pants in broad daylight: "At night, you return the backpack to me, and no one can see it when you put it on."

Qin An thought about his state at that time. At that time, he lost his mind because of the blood congestion in his brain. He couldn't care about anything else and just wanted to survive.

Perhaps it was at that moment of despair that the potential was stimulated, allowing the body to evolve a step further.

Qin An put his finger in his mouth and bit it, the teeth were no different from normal ones.Humans are omnivorous animals, because they don't have to hunt, and their bite force degenerates.According to the bite force of a normal person, it is impossible to bite through the skin of the mutated snake or even cut off the nerve and bite into the bone.

At that time, his teeth should have grown a few inches, and according to the proportion, the mouth should have also mutated.

If it is matched with a tail, it will be so awkward.

Qin An covered his eyes, and he felt that his appearance was blinding.

He Siming returned the backpack to him, and looked behind for a while to make sure that his butt would not be exposed.

"From this point of view, your degree of mutation should have increased a lot." He Siming said.

"It should be. The situation was very serious at the time, and the snake was very strong. I kept mutating my legs to resist. Later, after I killed the snake, I couldn't move the whole lower body. It was the soldier who carried me down to the middle of the mountain. recovered."

Hearing such words, He Siming guessed that Qin An was probably injured at that time, but his mutated body recovered quickly.

If Qin An hadn't mutated, he might have died on the mountain.

"I said you shouldn't go up the mountain, so I relied on you to take the reagent, otherwise you wouldn't be able to go down the mountain today." The two are friends, and it is this relationship that He Siming can teach a lesson without hesitation. Qin An.

Qin An originally wanted to deal with the matter, but thinking about He Siming's good intentions, he smiled and said: "I think that such a danger is a kind of experience. In this world, it is impossible to be protected forever. You must have enough confidence Only by protecting yourself can you go a long way."

He Siming knew what kind of temper he had, he didn't listen, and He Siming was not willing to be this villain.

"Then go out again, just wait until I can go out with you. Our mutation directions are different, and we must each have their own advantages. Working together is better than fighting alone. Don't mention any experience to me, no teamwork experience It's all in vain."

Qin An raised his hands in surrender, and took out the pie from his bag.This is the last pie, I didn't want to eat it two days ago.It's been five or six days now, and it's hard.However, a little salt was put in the noodles itself, and it was very dry. Apart from the bad taste, it did not deteriorate.

At the previous critical moment, almost half of Qin An's body was mutated, and the consumption of physical strength increased several times. Right now, Qin An was so hungry that his chest stuck to his back, and after speaking, he ate warm water and pies deliciously.

Seeing that Qin An looked like a hungry ghost, He Siming felt distressed.He took out a bag of mustard greens from the bag and gave it to him: "Slow down, you should choke on eating so fast while walking."

Now Qin An's teeth have evolved to the point where it can kill a mutated python, and it has grown a tail.In other words, Qin An's level of evolution is now higher than that of He Siming.

From an evolutionary point of view, reptiles appeared much earlier than mammals.Although it cannot be fully proved that reptiles are really stronger than mammals, but the degree of evolution is more primitive than that of He Siming, and the current evolution speed is one step faster than that of He Siming.

He Siming had to admit that the future Qin An's fighting power would definitely be higher than his.

Those who are capable work harder, and the stronger they are, the more difficult the danger they face.

Perhaps now is the most peaceful time for Qin An.

After people died on the mountain, everyone went up the mountain less. At most, they looked at both sides of the road and picked something edible. Even if they ate less, it was better than dying.

After eating fresh vegetable soup for two days, it turned back to soup made of dried vegetables, but no one complained, every time they got food, they couldn't wait to stuff it into their mouths.

It was night, Qin An and He Siming were sleeping soundly, and several soldiers guarded them exhaustedly.

Qiuling and Xiaosun slept together, and the blue cat nestled next to it, as if having a sweet dream, rubbing its paws with a happy expression on its face.

Suddenly, Qiu Ling opened her eyes and sat up.Xiao Sun was right next to him, feeling something was wrong with the people around him, so he also sat up and asked, "What's wrong?"

Qiu Ling put on her shoes and stood up, looked around, and suddenly yelled loudly: "There is going to be an earthquake! Wake up!"

After Qiu Ling yelled, a group of birds fled not far away, and there was a flustered sound of flying birds, and the only few mutant animals in the team were all sober and flustered around.The blue cat woke up and looked around anxiously. Xiao Sun rubbed the blue cat's neck to comfort it.

Those who did not hear Qiu Ling's words in the distance were also awakened by the sudden scream.The mutated mouse ran around like crazy, and would bite viciously when it encountered a human being, but after eating human flesh, it didn't entangle, but continued to run wildly.

He Siming woke up when he heard the voice, keenly sensed the danger, and hurriedly shook the people around him: "Anzi! Wake up!"

Qin Anmeng was eating meat inside, and was a little annoyed when He Siming woke him up: "What are you doing!"

"There is a situation, don't sleep!" He Siming pulled Qin An to wake up, and looked around to confirm the situation.

Several soldiers approached Qiu Ling and asked, "What's going on?!"

"There's an earthquake! Get to the clearing!"

Just as the soldiers were about to turn around to make arrangements, the officer among them stopped them: "Wait a minute! Now that there's an earthquake, mutant animals are running around too! Mutant animals are no less harmful than earthquakes!"

Most of the current buildings are still strong enough, as long as the magnitude of the earthquake is not particularly large, there is no problem, but the mutated animals are even more deadly to eat people.

At this time, everyone lived in a large local shopping mall, and it stands to reason that the earthquake resistance of the shopping mall should be better.

"You have to be clear, once this place collapses, how many people will die! Mutant animals can deal with it, but earthquakes cannot be resisted by humans!" Qiu Ling frowned.

This is obviously more convincing.The officer hesitated a little, gritted his teeth and said, "Notify everyone, prepare to evacuate!"

The people in the army woke up the crowd with a loudspeaker to evacuate urgently, because most of the people were resting, and they didn't care about rest at this time. They just took the most important things and fled here regularly.

He Siming packed up the bedding in a hurry, put two backpacks on his back, and ran out with Qin An.At this time, Qin An was also completely awake, took back his backpack, and took a look at the situation around him.

Maybe it's because I've gotten used to the army's arrangements in recent days. Although I'm still flustered, I'm still orderly.

He escaped from the building in one breath, and the people placed in other buildings also evacuated one after another.The nearby square is not enough to accommodate 40 people, so we can only urgently study the nearby map and transfer some people to nearby squares and parks.

Still in the process of emergency arrangements, there was a sudden whirlwind.

Qin An pulled He Siming to squat down to protect his head, and then there was a roar.

Even with his head down, he could hear the sound of the building collapsing.

Still thrilling, I heard screams one after another, some because of fear, but most of them were really in danger.

He Siming wanted to raise his head, but Qin An pulled him down.Qin An took a quick look by himself, only to see that the blue cat was entangled with a ferocious beast.

It was too late to see clearly, an unknown object flew straight towards He Siming's head from nowhere.Qin An stretched out his hand to stop it, and the cement fragments were hitting his arm. Qin An himself clearly heard the sound of bones breaking.

"what!"

"Anzi!" He Siming heard Qin An's cry of pain, and when he looked up, Qin An's blood was dripping on his forehead.

"It's okay, just lower your head and put your backpack on your head!" After all, Qin An has traveled all year round and has mastered some common sense of self-help.

He Siming first pulled up Qin An's backpack and put it on his head, then put his own backpack on top, grabbed Qin An's arm with one hand, and groped for Qin An's wound.

"How is your injury?" He Siming asked.

"What did you say?" The sound of the building collapsing was so loud that Qin An couldn't hear He Siming's voice at all.

He Siming also couldn't hear Qin An's voice clearly. There was no sense of security during the earthquake. He Siming could only hold Qin An's injured hand tightly, anxiously.

The building collapsed, and some debris flew, although most of them were small pieces, causing casualties.

The shock lasted for more than 20 seconds, and the ground shook, as if the body was not his own.

When the shaking ended, Qin An raised his head and saw the dark dust. He took a breath and was choked to cough twice.

Covering my nose with my sleeve, I stood up and looked around. The visibility was very low, and those who could see were squatting on the ground and shivering.

He Siming also got up and grabbed Qin An with one hand.

"Qiu Ling?" He Siming remembered that when he just squatted down, he clearly saw Qiu Ling was also here.

There was no response, and Qin An didn't understand why He Siming went to Qiu Ling first.He mutated the cochlea and listened to the sounds around him.

"That cat is over there." Qin An pointed in the direction. Since He Siming was looking for it, he could help.

He Siming waved the dust in front of his eyes and coughed twice.At this time, many people around got up, and the people from the government began to use loudspeakers to warn people not to panic. He Siming told Qin An to wait there, and he went to Qiu Ling first.

How can Qin An rest assured that He Siming will go alone, and now Qin An is following behind because of his high degree of mutation.

Qin An's right arm was broken and he couldn't use any strength at this time.However, the mutated body recovered more quickly. Qin An took out the sheet from his backpack and tore off a piece, hanging his right arm around his neck to avoid being hindered when he moved.

He Siming evolved his eyes and ears, and walked towards the sound of the blue cat fighting. There were two shadows entangled in the dust in the distance, and it was obvious that the cat was one of them.

He Siming ran over quickly, and sure enough, he saw the cat not far away, and the two girls were standing there.

Qiu Ling also noticed He Siming, looked at the things in her hand, and then at He Siming: "Why are you here?"

He Siming walked in and saw Qiu Ling put away the things in her hands: "During the earthquake, I felt someone running past me. In this direction, based on your position at that time, there was no need to run past me. "

Qiu Ling laughed directly: "Just based on this, you think I asked you to come here?"

He Siming shook his head: "Not at all. Although I was half asleep and half awake at the time, I heard that you started to let everyone out of the building before the animals moved. I really want to know how you knew there was an earthquake before the animals of?"

Qin An turned over a few ruins, followed He Siming's voice, and the dust formed a short fog. At this moment, he couldn't see what was going on around him at all. At least there were no tall buildings, only ruins where he walked. .It is hard to imagine how severe an earthquake would be to cause such a large loss based on the strength of the current building materials.I don't know how many people will die in this earthquake.

Immediately afterwards, the ground shook again.

Qin An didn't expect the aftershock to be so fast, he moved a little faster, and finally saw the figure when he looked up.

He Siming turned his head and saw Qin An, even though he couldn't see his face clearly, he was too familiar with that figure.Just as Qin An was about to speak, he moved his feet at this moment. He Siming looked down and his face suddenly changed:

"Don't come here! Anzi stop!"

Qin An was running, when he was told to stop suddenly, he didn't stop, and ran forward a few steps.

These few steps were enough for him to get close.

He Siming was going to push Qin An. At this moment, the ground under his feet suddenly sank.

Qin An grabbed He Siming's hand, and the two fell down. Qin An's right arm was grabbed by someone, and when Qin An turned his head, it was Ke Chenguang.

"Morning light!"

"Give me your hand!" Ke Chenguang hugged the tree next to him with one hand, and took Qin An's arm with the other.

Qin An was still holding He Siming with his left hand, and Ke Chenguang couldn't use his strength to grab Qin An's arm, let alone pull the two of them up with one hand, so Qin An could only grab Ke Chenguang with his right hand, and then both of them came up in one breath.

But the fatal thing at this time was that Qin An's right hand was broken!

"Broken hand!" Qin An was also very anxious at this time.

He Siming's fingers quickly evolved into claws, and he grabbed the rhizome on the edge of the collapse with one hand.

"Anzi! You go up first, I can climb up!"

Where can Qin An let go?At this time, the visibility is very low, and it is impossible to see clearly what is going on below. If there is really tens of meters below, even if it mutates, it may fall to death.

"I have a rope in my backpack!" Qin An suddenly remembered.

Ke Chenguang gritted his teeth, hooked his legs around the tree trunk, held Qin An's arm with one hand, and tried to open Qin An's backpack to get things with the other hand.

At this moment, a voice sounded nearby: "Uncle Ke! Uncle Ke! I'm looking for you over there!"

"Bao Xinyu! Come here! Come and help!"

Hearing Ke Chenguang's voice, Bao Xinyu ran over in a hurry, took a closer look at the situation, and was about to reach out to help, when suddenly the tree that Ke Chen was hooking on with his bare feet tilted, and the head-thick trunk toppled over, Bao Xinyu staggered and went straight to the ground. Fell into the ground.

"Bao Xinyu!" Ke Chenguang didn't expect to hurt Bao Xinyu, but before he had time to regret it, because the tree trunk was tilted, he had nowhere to use his legs, and his body slid down and fell.

The blue cat had just killed a mutated wild cat in the battle, and when he turned around, all the people he knew were gone, and there was only a bottomless pit.

The blue cat was a little anxious, and called twice at the entrance of the cave, but unfortunately there was no response. When he was hesitating whether to try, he suddenly seemed to hear something, and waited for a while with his ears on the ground. Turned around and left very disturbed.

He Siming was awakened by Qiu Ling, when the tree suddenly collapsed and the soil around the edge subsided again.He Siming didn't catch it, and with the pressure of the two people above, he also fell down.Now it is not clear how deep it is. Since he is unconscious, it means that there is a certain depth. After he woke up, he did not feel much discomfort, so this place is not deep enough to kill.

"Wake up! Dinner is ready." Qiu Ling was still calling He Siming.

He Siming narrowed his eyes, remembering what happened just now: "Anzi!"

Sitting up, she found that there was a light source. Qiu Ling was holding a flashlight that was not too bright. He Siming found Qin An and patted Qin An's face to wake him up.

Qin An's head was a little confused: "What's wrong?"

"We fell into an underground subsidence area. There doesn't seem to be any coal mines nearby. How could we sink so deep?" He Siming returned to the furnace rationally and began to think about the surrounding environment.

Qin An sat up and found Ke Chenguang and Bao Xinyu, and woke them up.

The moment it landed, people lost consciousness, luckily in misfortune, they only suffered a little scratch.

The moment it landed, people lost consciousness, luckily in misfortune, they only suffered a little scratch.

In fact, Ke Chenguang showed signs of waking up from the very beginning, but his body was a little out of control, and he couldn't get up all the time.Called by Qin An, his consciousness was finally able to control his body to sit up.

Bao Xinyu hadn't regained consciousness yet, Qin An tried to pull him up, but Bao Xinyu could only spit out some vague words.

Xiao Sun didn't know where he came out, approached Bao Xinyu, stretched out his hand to open Bao Xinyu's eyelids and looked at his pupils: "Slight coma, sleep for a while and you'll be fine."

He Siming checked Bao Xinyu's body and made sure there were only scratches: "Then it shouldn't be a big problem."

Ke Chenguang didn't speak, looked at Bao Xinyu who was still unconscious, and felt a little guilty in his heart.Obviously, Bao Xinyu came here with Ke Chenguang, and it was Ke Chenguang who asked him to come here, otherwise they would not have fallen here.

Qin An touched his right arm, the wound was so painful that he couldn't touch it, and he didn't know if the bone had recovered.Regardless of whether it is restored or not, it is useless now.

The bed sheet fell nearby, Qin An picked it up again and put it around his neck, looked up, but couldn't see anything on it: "Let's figure out how to get out first."

Among the group of people, Ke Chenguang is the most experienced.He took the flashlight from Qiu Ling and checked the soil nearby: "It's all sandy and vertical. There is no rope, so it's very difficult to climb up."

He Siming thought about it: "We fell down but didn't die, so the height may be between five and ten meters."

Ke Chenguang took off the military shovel from his waist and tried to dig a hole in the earth wall that he could step on and climb, but when he stepped on it, the sand and soil fell straight down, making it impossible to climb up.

At this time, Qiu Ling pointed in a direction and said, "Before you wake up, Xiao Sun and I have looked around. There is a cave over there, it may be a cave, you can go in and have a look."

"Are you already awake?" He Siming was also a little skeptical.Fortunately, others say that He Siming and Qin An are mutants, and their physical fitness is far beyond ordinary people.Even if there is no mutation, a man's physique is better than a woman's.The two girls would wake up first and look around first.

In other words, they were not in a coma from the beginning.

"I was the first to wake up, and I went to call Xiaosun first. The place where Xiaosun fell is far away. Understand, I only know Xiaosun. I walked around with a flashlight before I found her, and then I found you .”

He Siming obviously didn't believe such a statement.

Ke Chenguang picked up Bao Xinyu on his back and said, "First look around to see if there is any suitable place to climb up. Even if there is a cave, such a deep place will probably lack oxygen, so try not to go in."

Ke Chenguang has experience in carrying out missions in the field, so he naturally leads everyone.

Qin An took out the mobile phone from the backpack. Fortunately, there were enough things in the backpack to protect the mobile phone when it fell.Qin An turned on the light of the mobile phone, and the six people divided into two teams to explore around.

The area of ​​the collapsed place is very large. The two teams started from the same point to both sides and walked for a full 10 minutes before the two sides converged. They couldn't find a suitable place to go up.

The group sat down to rest for a while, and Bao Xinyu showed signs of waking up.Ke Chenguang gave Bao Xinyu some water, and he seemed to be in better condition.

He Siming's walkie-talkie broke during the fall, and he could only hear some sporadic signals, but he couldn't send out a call for help.

A group of people sat down and rested for a while, and began to discuss what to do next.

"Unless we go up by ourselves, the possibility of being found is very low." Qin An said, "Even if they send someone out to look for it, it is unlikely that anyone will think that we have fallen into the subsidence area. Now if you look up from here, you can see everything No, maybe the smog outside has not dissipated, so the possibility of finding it is even lower."

"And more importantly," He Siming said, "don't forget, when we fell, it was still daytime. Even if the visibility was low, our eyes wouldn't be completely black. Now that we can't see anything, it means we've been in a coma for a while , we haven’t been found during this period of time, so don’t expect anyone to save you.”

The atmosphere was a little stagnant.Qiu Ling sat on the ground with her knees bent and played with her fingers, she had no intention of getting involved.

I don't know why, sometimes when a group of people discuss issues together, girls will be naturally excluded, and almost no one will find it strange.Even if you get involved, you often interject a few words after making a decision.

But this time there were too few people, and only five people could make a decision. These three people discussed the issue to a dead end, and they looked at Qiu Ling in a tacit understanding.

Qiu Ling is a person who sometimes ignores herself, even when others make decisions for her, she won't say much.It's just that she is always smiling on weekdays, and no one will think that she is an easy character to mess with.

Qin An couldn't help but ask, "Do you have any ideas?"

Qiu Ling blinked and smiled, "Didn't you already pass me? I have nothing to say."

"..."

Inexplicably felt ridiculed.

Ke Chenguang said: "Going down the cave rashly is really dangerous."

"But there is no second way right now, is there?" Qiu Ling took out the water bottle and drank some water, then said, "If you can't go up, there is no rescue, so you can't wait to die here, right?"

Ke Chenguang thought for a while, then took out the backpack and opened it: "Let's see what everyone has."

Everyone gathered together and opened the backpack. Before Bao Xinyu woke up, Ke Chenguang replaced him.

Make sure what everyone brings, and make a secondary distribution. After all, the underground is different from the ground, and it still depends on the situation.

The food was adequate, although mostly compressed biscuits, which didn't taste great, but provided enough calories.Roughly calculated, at least enough to feed a group of people for seven or eight days.Bedding and luggage take up a lot of space, and such an environment can also ensure that everyone's physical strength will not be lost.

First aid supplies are the most important thing. Qin An and He Siming can recover on their own. Except for Qin An's broken arm, which needs to be bandaged, other wounds are ignored at all, and the other four people also disinfect and bandage the wound as soon as possible to prevent infection.

Xiao Sun brought a mini pot in his backpack, but unfortunately he couldn't find the fuel for the time being.Alcohol is only more than 200 ml, and it must be reserved for disinfection right now.What surprised Ke Chenguang the most was that there was an emergency candle in Qiuling's backpack.It is the candle in the windproof cup, which claims to be lit for 24 hours.

"With this, it's much easier to go down the cave." Ke Chenguang held the candle, his face relaxed, "Oxygen in the cave can't be detected, but it's easy with the candle. Light the candle and walk forward. If the candle goes out Now, let's get out as soon as possible!"

Qin An felt a little awkward hearing this, thought for a while and asked, "Is this just some kind of 'people lighting candles and ghosts blowing lamps'?"

Tomb robbers in the old age pay attention to lighting a candle and putting it in the tomb before going down. If the candle goes out, it means that the owner of the tomb does not welcome outsiders and will die if they enter.

In fact, from a scientific point of view, the inside of the tomb is not ventilated, and some people who do not have oxygen will suffocate to death if they enter.The candle needs oxygen to burn, and it will go out when placed in a space without oxygen.Similar words circulated in the tomb robbery industry can be regarded as a kind of wisdom of the ancients.

"Then let's go down to the cave?" He Siming confirmed to everyone.

Qin An has no objection, maybe he has mutated, and Qin An is even more unscrupulous in this regard.

"Let's wait a little longer." Ke Chenguang said, "Bao Xinyu hasn't woken up yet, so it's easy for us to go down into the cave and have an accident. We can't leave Bao Xinyu behind."

Lay a mat on the ground and lay Bao Xinyu flat to let him rest well.

The backpack was repacked, the food was redistributed evenly, and most of the first aid medicines were placed with Xiao Sun.

While packing the backpack, Qin An saw that Qiu Ling had a small bag in the corner that had not been opened, and pointed out, "What's in it?"

Qiu Ling opened Qin An's hand with one hand: "Don't touch the girl's things."

Immediately, Qin An thought of some sanitary products, his face became hot, and he secretly scolded himself for being out of his mind.

He Siming suddenly said: "I remembered. I followed you here and saw something in your hand. If I read correctly, it should be a compass, right?"

Qiu Ling was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "I'm not a fortune teller."

It was obvious that she was lying.

He Siming frowned slightly, just at this time Bao Xinyu made a movement.

Everyone gathered around, Bao Xinyu coughed twice, and finally opened his eyes.

"Where is this?" Bao Xinyu looked around to see familiar people, but it was pitch black, and there was no trace of other people.

"It fell into the cave." Qin An explained.

Seeing that Bao Xinyu was fine, Ke Chenguang also breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "You were looking for me at that time?"

Bao Xinyu thought hard, nodded and said: "Yes, I came to look for you. After the earthquake, some soldiers came to look for you. I saw you running this way, so I came to look for you. Later... I just can't remember."

He Siming looked at Ke Chenguang: "Then how did you find us?"

Ke Chenguang said: "I saw Qin An walking into the woods. The woods are very dangerous after the earthquake. I want to take him back."

Needless to say, Qin An followed He Siming into the forest, and He Siming was looking for Qiu Ling and the others.

The eyes of the four fell on the two girls, and He Siming asked, "Then why did you come here?"

After the earthquake, the two girls walked into the woods for no reason, which is too suspicious.

Surrounded by the gazes of the four people, Qiuling said without any pressure, "We came with Mimi, and you all know that Mimi fought with that wild cat. It was the earthquake, and we were also afraid that the cat would come." What an accident. Speaking of which, it’s a good thing the cat didn’t fall, otherwise it would have been broken at such a height and with such a big body.”

Xiao Sun corrected: "With the cat's reaction nerves, there is no problem if it is twice as high."

Qiu Ling's rhetoric is obviously not convincing, it is an earthquake that kills people, will there really be people who want to kill cats?What's more, it's a mutated cat. No matter how powerful the earthquake is, it won't do much damage to such a large creature. What's more, the cat's reaction speed is very fast, and it is difficult to get hurt.

After hearing such an answer, everyone frowned.This Qiu Ling didn't say a few words of truth, she was obviously in trouble, and she still couldn't be sincere.Even if it is a means of self-protection for a girl in a desperate situation, this is indeed too much.

"Since you don't want to say it clearly, then we won't force you. But we don't know if we can get out when we're stuck here. I don't care what you do at other times, and we should be as serious as possible here. Now we are a team."

Qiu Ling was noncommittal.

Bao Xinyu rested for a while, except that his head was a little dizzy, it didn't affect him.Ke Chenguang was not at ease, and specially asked him to take a painkiller to relieve his headache.After resting and eating something, the group lit candles and went down to the cave entrance.

The hole is not big enough for only one person to pass through.Ke Chenguang walked in the front and held a candle, while Qiu Ling lit a flashlight to illuminate the front from behind.Originally, Qin An was going to be behind, but his right arm was broken, so He Siming was at the end. Qin An gave him his power bank, and He Siming used the light on the power bank to look at the front and back at any time.

Qiu Ling's flashlight is hand-cranked, and she is not afraid of power failure. The only disadvantage is that the light is relatively dim.The light source of the power bank is also very dim, but it saves electricity and can be used for days and nights.

After entering the cave, the space is a bit narrow.Facing the claustrophobic space, people's pressure will increase exponentially. Even if they have never encountered anything before and after, their hearts are lifted at this time.

Under the dim light, Ke Chenguang looked at the wall and touched it with his hand: "This is dug out manually."

Others have also discovered that such a regular and narrow passage can't be opened by mutated mice, right?

"Obviously. But in such a deep place, why do you want to make a hole here?" Qin An suddenly remembered something when he said this. The space to match the collapsed area. It's something below that can't hold up, so the place above falls to fill the space!"

Having said that, the answer is ready to come out.

Bao Xinyu shivered, and said excitedly: "Then, have we entered the tomb?"

This time, everyone felt a chill down their spine.

Qin An said: "If this is really the case, then we just stepped on..." Maybe we stepped on someone's coffin.

"When a person dies, they will only decompose. If they are not decomposed, they are just some molecular structures. There is nothing to be afraid of." He Siming spoke to reassure everyone.

Ke Chenguang said: "Compared to these, what I care more about is whether there will be a mechanism here?"

The real tomb does not have those organs that hang the sky.And not all tombs will have them. Only dignitaries with a certain status can have a large number of funerary objects, and then institutions will be set up in order to avoid being remembered by tomb robbers.

And the mechanisms are often not too complicated, or even simple mechanisms with the most basic principles, such as flippers.The simpler the mechanism, the more it can last for thousands of years and is still useful, even recycled.

And only the tombs of princes or even higher-level people will have extremely expensive organs like mercury or strong acid.

"Such a scale, I can't tell." If it's a small tomb, don't worry about it at all.But think about the location of the collapsed ground. If it is really one of the tombs, then there must be some organs in a tomb of this size.

"Will there be zongzi?" Bao Xinyu looked curious.

He Siming, who was standing behind Bao Xinyu, stretched out his hand and gave him a shudder: "I've read too many novels!"

"Hey, if we really come down to make zongzi, it will be very exciting to think about it."

"If we really want something like that, we'll die if we drop it." Qiu Ling laughed.

Xiao Sun stretched out his hand to poke Qiu Ling: "Stop talking."

Discussing this in such an environment is indeed scary.

The entrance of the cave is very long, Qin An keeps an eye on the time, and has already walked for less than half an hour.

The longer the time, the more depressing the heart becomes.Qin An touched his right arm again, and it didn't hurt as much as it did at first, and he recovered quickly.

After being quiet for a long time, some people gradually began to find it hard to bear such depression: "How long do we have to go?"

Bao Xinyu felt more and more panicked as he walked.

"This passage should be curved." Ke Chenguang touched the wall. Although people's sense of direction would be weakened in a dark environment, Ke Chenguang still felt it.

"Would that mean we were spinning in circles from the beginning?" Bao Xinyu asked.

Thinking about these words, Ke Chenguang frowned, and stretched out his hand to leave a distinctive mark on the side.

The team continued to move forward, the front was a little narrow, and everyone turned sideways.The candle has been burning, which means that the oxygen here is still sufficient.Such a narrow and long passage can still ensure that the breathing of the six people is a little strange. Qin An took out his mobile phone and took a look around with the flash, but he still didn't find anything.

The flashlight of Qin An's mobile phone was brighter than the front and rear light sources.He Siming from behind saw it and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I'm wondering if there are other vents nearby? Otherwise, it's strange that six people are still not deprived of oxygen in such a narrow hole."

In this way, everyone is also concerned.

He Siming narrowed his eyes slightly to evolve his eyes, looked around with Qin An's light, and suddenly stopped everyone.

"Wait a minute!" He Siming looked not far ahead, then looked back again: "Anzi, take a photo of your phone!"

Qin An turned the phone back to take a photo: "What did you see!"

He Siming saw everything clearly this time: "As you said, there are vents, both at the front and at the back! In other words, we may have passed several similar places along the way.
