Luo Xiao's body was hanging outside the entrance of the cave. Below his body was a cliff with a drop of tens of meters. His feet could not find a place to stay and he could only rely on his hands to control his body.
Fortunately, the alloy climbing rope designed by Mo Yanran was of high quality. Both the rope and the metal clips withstood the huge force. Although they could not stop shaking, there were no signs of problems.
Luo Xiao controlled the circlip and let the rope loosen little by little, allowing him to descend toward the cliff while looking at his surroundings.
He is now in a huge sinkhole, with a dark abyss beneath his feet. Although he is only a few dozen meters away from the entrance of the cave, if he looks up, he can only see a point the size of a mung bean in the sky above his head, and it is so faint that it is useless to use it.
It's so hard that your eyes can't see clearly.
According to Luo Xiao's visual inspection, the depth of this sinkhole is probably several hundred meters, or even thousands of meters deep, and the altitude of his current location is already at a negative value.
Looking around, Luo Xiao found that the sinkhole was very large, about dozens of square kilometers in size, almost circular in shape, surrounded by smooth and steep stone walls, reaching straight to the top, and dozens of meters below his feet.
It is the ground of the sinkhole, which is covered with dense trees. Their branches are strong and powerful. Tree roots grow on them and penetrate into the ground again. It looks quite spectacular.
Such ancient trees are everywhere in this sinkhole. It seems that they have been here for a long time and did not appear recently.
What shocked Luo Xiao was that in the center of the tiankeng was a lake with a radius of several kilometers. The lake looked green from a distance, but instead of staying calm in the lake, it was blown away by a tornado in the center.
Sweeping up, an astonishing "waterspout" was formed, following the raging tornado waving and swaying in the air, looking like a giant dragon.
The roaring sound like a bull's roar came from this tornado that towered over the sky, mixed with the moist smell of the lake, and filled the bottom of the entire sinkhole.
Luo Xiao knew that it was precisely because of the existence of the tornado that there was a strong suction force in the sinkhole, which made people like him involuntarily want to throw themselves into the waterspout.
Looking at the tornado that danced between the sky and the earth like a giant dragon, Luo Xiao's heart went crazy. If he was caught in it, not even the dregs would be left, and it would be reduced to dust in the blink of an eye.
Thinking of this, Luo Xiao hurriedly controlled his body and leaned as close to the stone wall as possible, trying to stay away from the tornado. At the same time, he also notified the other warriors above him to be more careful.
People landed carefully downwards, leaving the entrance of the cave little by little, and fell against the stone wall towards the bottom of the sinkhole. Although they were tossed around by the strong suction, it was still smooth, and they gradually approached the floor of the sinkhole.
Luo Xiao was at the front. He was the first to descend to the ground, then untied the rope and quickly found a depression around him that could avoid the tornado. Then he directed the soldiers to enter the depression and avoid the place that the tornado could cover.
After everyone entered the depression, Luo Xiao felt relieved. He turned on the flashlight and carefully checked the movement in the depression. He found that it was very clean and not too humid, which was perfect for people to take a rest.
Along the way, people were exhausted, so now that they had a place to rest, they sat down one after another and started eating while resting.
Counting on the fingers of one hand, it had been six or seven hours since they entered the cave. During this time, people had not rested for a moment, nor had they eaten anything. This caused them to consume a lot of physical strength, and each of them felt a little overwhelmed.
"One group is on alert. The others are resting in place and recovering their strength as soon as possible." Luo Xiao knew that this was not a place to stay for a long time. He would wait for people to rest before looking for a way out.
If there was still no signal here, Luo Xiao would only have to call for an armed transport helicopter. If that didn't work, there would be Flash One. With her powerful power and body, she could send everyone out one by one.
.
However, Luo Xiao has no choice now. He has tried all communication methods, but they are all ineffective. There is no way to contact the outside world. This means that the last amulet has also been removed. If they want to survive, they need their own
Worked hard.
After arranging the first group of alerts, Luo Xiao and the other soldiers all began to rest in order to recover their physical strength as soon as possible.
Time passed by minute by second. The two soldiers of the team were holding guns and alerting the surrounding situation while protecting their sleeping comrades.
Suddenly, Luo Xiao's ears twitched as he was leaning against the big tree. Then he opened his eyes suddenly and reached out to grab the automatic rifle beside him.
"Legion commander, what's wrong?" The two soldiers on guard immediately noticed his abnormality, hurriedly came to his side, and asked in a low voice, "What did you find?"
"Shh, listen!" Luo Xiao made a gesture of silence, and then listened. The two soldiers also hurriedly closed their mouths and listened.
As the two people fell silent, they finally heard the gurgling sound of a stream. Although it was slight, it was real.
"Why is there the sound of running water?" Luo Xiao was also very surprised. He searched around and suddenly found that where he was, there seemed to be smooth ravines on the stone wall around him, as if they had been washed out by water over a long period of time.
.
With a thought in his heart, Luo Xiao shouted, "Don't sleep, get up quickly."
This voice was like a thunderclap, and the sleeping soldiers immediately woke up from their sleep. They thought something had happened, so they all grabbed their weapons and searched the surroundings vigilantly.
Luo Xiao didn't bother to explain to them, but shouted, "Quick, get out of here and go to a higher place next to it."
People were a little confused and looked at Luo Xiao blankly, wondering why the legion commander did this.
This depression is like a cave, hidden at the foot of the mountain. In front of it is a huge boulder, probably thousands of tons, that has grown together with the ground. No matter how strong the tornado is, it cannot be rolled up, so it is very difficult to hide here.
safe.
If you leave here now, the high places outside will be affected by the tornado. If you are not careful, you will be swept away and smashed into pieces in the tornado.
"Why are you so dumbfounded? Let's go quickly." Luo Xiao saw everyone standing there motionless, so he became anxious and his voice raised an octave again.
This time, people all woke up, and they immediately rushed out of the depression in a swarm, planning to leave here.
At this moment, there was a sudden loud noise like the earth was shattering outside, and then a huge billowing lang fell from the sky, covering the depression in the blink of an eye. The water flow was as strong as a sledgehammer, causing the warriors of the team who rushed out at the front to fall.
It flew back and fell heavily on the stone wall.
I don't know when the tornado stopped. The massive lake water that was swept up into the sky lost the restraint of the tornado and turned into a huge lang that poured down from the sky. The momentum made people feel heartbroken.
The depression was not big to begin with, but so much lake water fell from the sky that it filled the depression in the blink of an eye. It also continued to fall from the sky, turning the entire foot of the mountain into a vast ocean.
The depression was filled with lake water. Luo Xiao and the special forces members were all submerged in the water. The undercurrents were all around their bodies. They were pushed here and there, making their bodies sway uncontrollably.
With a whoosh, a hole about the size of a washbasin in the corner of the depression turned into a deadly whirlpool, sucking the closest soldier into it and swallowing him up to his shoulders.
The soldier wanted to open his mouth to say something, but because he was in the water, he couldn't say anything. Instead, he choked several times and almost fainted. He quickly closed his mouth and stretched out his arms to hold on to the hole.
The stone wall hopes to be able to support Luo Xiao and the others until their rescue arrives.
This sudden scene surprised Luo Xiao and the others, and they hurriedly swam over to save him.
Suddenly, the water flow in the cave suddenly intensified, and the high-speed rotating vortex was like a meat grinder, easily tearing apart the soldier's lower body. The severe pain made him roar, and then his arms were pulled away from the stone wall.
It slipped away and disappeared into the hole together with his head.
A bright flower of blood exploded in the water at the entrance of the cave, dyeing the dangerous area red, and then was sucked in by the whirlpool and disappeared without a trace.
However, Luo Xiao and the others already knew that this was a deadly whirlpool, and there was a danger of death if they approached it, so they swam desperately toward the outside of the depression.
Over this period of time, the lake water falling outside has accumulated into a lake with a radius of several hundred square meters, and it is still falling. From a distance, it looks like a waterfall pouring down from the Tianhe River, and the momentum is very amazing.
Luo Xiao and the others rushed out against the huge lang, but were pushed back several times. Once they were almost hit by the undercurrent into the whirlpool under the stone wall, which scared everyone into a cold sweat.
"What should I do?" Luo Xiao's eyes turned red!
The longer they stay underwater, the more dangerous they are. Even if they have undergone rigorous underwater training, after all, breathing requires conditions. Under the rapids and undercurrents, there is no chance for them to breathe calmly.
Sooner or later I won't be able to hold on anymore.
But it was a bit difficult to rush out. The lake water was still falling in the sky outside. The tornado that was hundreds of meters high sucked up too much lake water, and it would not be able to drain out in a short while.
Now they have fallen into a desperate situation. Behind them is a deadly underwater whirlpool, and in front of them is a huge waterfall, putting them in a dilemma.
Luo Xiao was going crazy with anxiety. His head was spinning like crazy, and ideas flashed through him quickly, but he rejected them all.
Finally, Luo Xiao thought of a way. He gestured to several other people to indicate that they should cooperate.
These warriors had all undergone special training, so they immediately understood what Luo Xiao meant. One of them stepped on the stone wall behind him, and the other put his feet in his palms. Then he straightened his arms and put
The soldier lifted him forward.
In this way, one soldier after another finally approached the edge of the depression.
People gestured to Luo Xiao, who was the last one to connect with them. When everyone was connected, Luo Xiao pressed the climbing rope ejector on his wrist, and a sharp arrow was exposed on his wrist.
at.
"Hey!"
People exerted their strength at the same time, and their originally bent legs suddenly straightened, and the bridge instantly lengthened, dragging Luo Xiao out of the water.
