"The soil here is quite nutritious, Lao Zhang, do you think if I grow watermelons here, can I grow the largest one in the world?" Uncle Zhou chattered non-stop.
The thin man next to him, whom he called "Lao Zhang," scratched his ears and was too lazy to respond.
Jinghe said with a smile: "I remember when I was in school, my teacher said that volcanic ash can form fertile soil, and maybe we can actually grow it!"
Yun Tuan's face was a little painful from the gas mask. She looked around, trying to divert her attention.
The inside of the cave is much wider than what you see outside, but the density of barnacles and algae is much higher than at the entrance.
The air is relatively humid.
The cold light of the flashlight shines far into the distance. Wherever the beam reaches, there are many small flying insects with wide and translucent wings.
Their target is not humans, and they seem to be afraid of light. When illuminated by a flashlight, they "escape" to both sides.
In the distance, on the very gray turquoise water, a gray-white cylinder floated.
When the raft got closer, it was a swollen and white corpse.
Yun Tuan frowned, raised his gaze slightly, and met a pair of scarlet eyes!
The whites of those eyes were bloodshot, and the tears were bloody, but the black pupils did not spread to the edges of the eye sockets.
She leaned back slightly and saw only a floating head.
Ghost?
Next to him, Jing Yu Jinghe is concentrating on driving away flying insects, so he should be invisible.
Yun Tuan pinched his palms with his nails, trying to stay awake.
Then the thing pushed further and sank suddenly!
Meet her face to face!
The opponent's pupils disappeared in an instant, and the entire eyeball showed a greenish white life. The decayed plaque spread rapidly from the tear ducts to the face.
At the same time, the head was still smiling ferociously, with veins bulging on its forehead.
It seems that he is enduring great pain and laughing at the same time.
...Who is this?
But there was no sound in my ears, but the wind in the cave became stronger.
Wave after wave of sea smell penetrates the gas mask and stimulates everyone's olfactory nerves.
"Ah!!——"
A girl in the team pointed at the top of the cave and screamed.
Yun Tuan used a mahogany pendant to drive the head in front of her further away. When she looked up, she saw a hanging rope nearby, like a plastic skipping rope. A child was hanging upside down there, with his limbs twisted beyond recognition.
"What is it? Isn't it just a skipping rope!" Jinghe was confused and was about to raise his hand to pull it down, but Uncle Zhou beat him to it.
"Don't move it!" Yun Tuan had no time to stop him and saw the child falling onto the raft together with the rope.
It instantly turned around and regained its limbs, becoming as flexible as a snake.
The other two girls and a thinner young man in the team screamed non-stop, causing everyone to complain.
"What are you doing? It's just an old skipping rope. What's there to say?" The captain grabbed the dagger, but it was useless.
Yun Tuan dug out the small bag next to the cinnabar, dipped some dust on his fingertips, and quickly drew symbols on the raft.
Jing Yu took out the tranquilizer from Yun Tuan's backpack and injected it into the frightened three people.
"What is this for? Is there something?" Uncle Zhou asked doubtfully and stopped complaining.
Before he finished speaking, the symbol of clouds ended.
Ah!!!
A piercing scream dissipated into the darkness.
"Holy shit, there really is something?!" Uncle Zhou was stunned. When he looked at the hand that had just grabbed the skipping rope, he saw a strange green-black color appeared where the palm of his hand and the skipping rope came into contact.
He kicked the skipping rope into the water in horror, and something quickly pulled the rope away under the water.
"I told you not to touch other people's things - uncle, please change places with others, and don't touch the wine. Your hands are just stained with dirt, hey, don't use the water here to wash them!"
Yun Tuan put the things back into his pocket and saw that the zipper of his backpack had been restored.
Jinghe came closer and asked, "What is this?"
"Incense ash."
She looked at the water and frowned, the body was gone.
