Chapter 44 (1)

The sound from the sand had not disappeared yet. I suddenly heard countless dull sounds from the darkness in the distance. It seemed that something fell from the top of the cave and fell into the quicksand. The sound was very dense, and in the end it was like raining. The number of things dropped should be quite large.

The fat man was so excited that he stopped when he heard this sound and said to himself: "I seem to hear the sound of being unlucky." After that, he sat up immediately. We had no self-defense, so the fat man took out the iron thorns.

I also knew something must have happened, but when I looked around, I could only see quicksand. The place where the sound came from was still a certain distance from here. Although the "Wolf Eye" could illuminate very far, it was difficult to see the details clearly in the yellow sand. Looking at it, I couldn't tell what was falling down.

I was uneasy. Now we have no defense at all. Once the chassis we were lying on was damaged, we would sink into the quicksand. Although the quicksand was not deep and would not trap us, we were also turtles in the jar. To put it bluntly, if we were trapped in the quicksand, even if we were just a few patient mosquitoes, we could bite us here. I said to the fat man: "Your broken toothpick is useless. Keep climbing. As far as you can, maybe we can keep going to the edge."

The fat man looked at the iron thorn in his hand and nodded immediately: "Okay, go." We lay down again and immediately began to roll and crawl. The fat man obviously accelerated his speed. Obviously, fear is the primary productivity of human beings.

Unexpectedly, after walking for a while, something suddenly fell to us. When the fat man shone it with a flashlight, he saw that it was a bone. The fat man shone it on the top of the cave with the flashlight. He immediately saw that there were many corpses sticking to the top of the cave. These corpses seemed to have been flattened and stuck to the top of the cave. At the same time, we found that the top of the cave was trembling, and the corpses stuck to it were shaking, and debris fell from time to time.

The sound of objects falling to the ground continued to sound like rain, and this time I heard it very clearly. The sound seemed to be moving and was quickly approaching us. The fat man shone in that direction with a flashlight, and could vaguely see that the corpses were being shaken down by something, and a huge shadow hanging upside down on the top of the cave appeared and disappeared under the flashlight.

This time, it is certain that this place seems to be a feeding ground. All animals entering the ventilation and lighting stone path will eventually gather here and be disposed of by something here, but I don’t know what this thing is.

How could this ghost not say more to us? You must know that there is such a design here. At least I won’t run so fast and get such a simple trap. If you are careful, maybe we have entered the ancient building now.

I cursed in my heart, feeling very desperate for a moment. Judging from the situation around me and the size of this thing, it is unlikely that I can run away. Even if it is flat, we can't run away. Should I be beaten to the top of the cave this time? In this state, it seems that I can't even think of a more dignified way of death.

Previous experience tells us that no matter what, we must persevere until the last moment. The fat man handed me the iron thorn. This was usually used by the Buddha. At most, it was a widow who was unlucky to be awakened by the old rich man who was unlucky to be awakened in the middle of the night. Although this thing is not easy to sell, it is also considered an antique. I originally wanted to take it back and keep it for a souvenir, but I didn't expect that what I used to fight against now would be such a thing. Thanks to this thing, it is very sharp. If you greet anything, the other party will definitely not be too happy.

The fat man was much more timid without a gun. We stepped on the skeleton of the chassis, bent over and waited for the thing to approach. In doing so, we can at least choose whether to jump out and avoid it or take the opportunity to fight back when it first attacked.

However, after we put on the shelf for a long time, the thing stopped around us. I thought to myself, this thing is so big, so cautious. What kind of thing is it? Is it a living creature or a dead corpse? Looking at the huge shadow on the top of the cave in the distance, the sweat in my hand squeezed out from my fingers. How could a living creature appear in such a place? I have never seen such a beast, and if a dead creature, it would not have such cautious behavior.

At this time, the sand in front of us suddenly fluctuated, and a wave of sand rolled in front of us. I shone the flashlight on the surface of the quicksand and saw the bone that had just fallen in the quicksand suddenly change. The bone seemed to be alive, and was crawling on the sand.

The bones were twisted in the sand, and the cotton-like thing on it was shrinking and expanding. You could see several black tentacles protruding from under the bones.

We turned our eyes to the top of the cave and became even more stunned. All the bones stuck on the top of the cave moved, and a large number of black tentacles, as thick as a toothpick, stretched out.
