And something that frightened us even more happened. The spouting of crystals suddenly stopped, and the swishing sound became more violent. One after another, small red snakes came out of the holes where the crystals burst out, and faced us with their heads raised.
It opened its mouth with two sharp snake teeth, stretched out the blood-red snake letter and made a hissing sound. These small snakes were only about 20 centimeters long, and were no thicker than a human thumb. But the top of each snake was long.
Wearing colorful crowns, there are fleshy wings as thin as cicada wings on both sides of the body. There are more and more little snakes, and they gradually cover the entire ground. Seeing this scene, the blood all over my body is about to freeze.
.
Fortunately, these little red snakes didn't mean to attack us yet, and they didn't open their mouths to bite us even when they came out from under our feet.
Time passed slowly, and none of us dared to move. These little red snakes had trapped us all for four or five minutes, and everyone felt strange. I asked Jiao Yiming in a low voice: "Brother Jiao, this is strange, they are also
It won't attack us, but we don't dare to move. What is this snake? Do you know?" Jiao Yiming frowned and said, "I don't think I've seen it in my adoptive father's ancient books, and I don't know what it is.
What snake."
At this moment, Zhang Li next to me suddenly whispered in my ear: "I feel... we don't seem to be in reality now."
My heart moved and I asked her in a low voice: "What do you mean? What is reality or unreality?"
Zhang Li said next to my ear: "I just feel it, because I have a special ability. I was just like you before my eyes were opened, but after I opened my eyes, my master said that I can feel things that others can't."
Things or things. And it has an extra seventh sense than others. I think now we seem to be blinded by something. When we feel a rustling sound underground, we will suddenly think of whether there is a snake based on the sound.
It came out, so there was a snake. That's what I feel, but I'm not sure because my seventh sense has not verified it."
My heart moved again, and I asked her again: "What is it that blinds our consciousness? Is the consciousness of each of us a snake? Why doesn't anyone think of other things?" Zhang Li smiled brightly and said:
"I think it's the same thing that blinds our consciousness." "Then how do we know what it is? And how do we crack it?" I asked her again.
Zhang Li shook her head and said: "I don't know about this, but... I feel like there is something hidden around us after we came down the slide, and I looked carefully, but I couldn't find it."
At this time, I remembered something. After coming down from the slide, I looked around. The entire place we were in was full of colorful crystal stones. I even dug out a piece with a dagger while I was resting.
In my pocket. I quickly took it out and observed it carefully. At this time, I discovered that there was an object inside the crystal, a very small insect-like thing, which seemed to be twisting gently.
At this time, I thought of the maggots under the flies. I couldn't help but feel sick. I moved my eyes away and looked at the ground. Suddenly, I understood! Because I saw that all the green snakes on the ground turned into what I just thought of.
Maggots. It turns out that this spar is causing trouble, interfering and blinding our consciousness. Because everything we see is this spar, and because of the reflected light of the spar, the entire environment we are in is slightly reddish.
Light. When the underground made a sound due to the slight movement of the earth's crust, we all subconsciously thought of the shape and movements of snakes, so an illusion appeared in front of us - a red snake. Thinking of this, I bit my tongue hard and felt the pain.
It filled my nerves and something suddenly changed before my eyes.
We are still in this environment full of crystals, but there is nothing on the ground. Where are the red snakes? Only those crystals are shining with light. The only difference is that the sound of brushing underground is still there.
Yes, and the voice was very loud. I quickly told everyone this problem loudly, and everyone looked at me suspiciously. I had no choice but to reach out to Pang Xiaotai’s arm on the left and twisted it hard. It hurt him and said, "Oh!
"I jumped up with a sound. Then I looked down and shouted: "Hey...those snakes...are gone as expected!" At this time, everyone hurriedly pinched or twisted them and inflicted wounds on themselves.
As expected, everyone woke up from the illusion due to the pain.
At this time, everyone looked at me with a smile. Jiao Yiming said: "Comrade Xiaochu, you can do it. How did you discover this problem?" I blushed and said with a smile: "It was Zhang Li who told me to pass her first exam."
With her seventh sense, I felt that these red snakes might be an illusion. Then I just thought about it based on her seventh sense, and I didn’t expect that I really solved the illusion."
Zhang Li looked at me and smiled slightly and said: "I just felt it, but it was you who discovered the secret of the crystal and solved this illusion. So it is still your credit." Everyone laughed.
At this time, we realized that the sounds underground were getting louder and louder, and everyone looked at each other again. Jiao Yiming frowned and said: "Anyway, let's continue marching forward. There must be some changes underground, the sounds are real
Yes!" Everyone nodded in agreement and quickly continued to move forward.
After walking nervously for about ten minutes, a left-turn curve appeared in front of us, with a red light flashing from it, and hot air blowing out, and the underground noise suddenly became that of ours.
In front of the building. Everyone carefully raised their guns or other weapons and walked slowly inside.
When we walked in, we were shocked. We were standing on a large cliff, with no road ahead at all, and a towering cliff on the opposite side. To our left, there was a winding pothole path that only allowed one person to go down.
Under the cliff. One side of the path is a towering cliff, and the other side is a very deep cliff. Below is the red-hot magma. It seems that there is an underground active volcano below! Miracles are really coming one after another.
! Let us be stunned! At this point, we finally understood that it turned out to be the churning of magma, but because of a bend, it turned into a sound that seemed to come from underground.
Pang Xiaotai reacted first and said with a sad face: "What should we do? Are we going to go down this steep and narrow road like this? And go down into the burning red magma?" No one answered.
Instead, he lowered his head in silence and pondered over countermeasures.
After a while, instructor Shui raised his head and said, "I think so. Since our path is this one, then the route is correct. We have no way of knowing whether this magma lake has existed for a long time or is newly formed.
We can only go down and take a look. If the magma lake has always existed, then this road will definitely not go into the magma. There must be other turning points to avoid the magma. What do you think?", we thought.
I thought what instructor Shui said made sense. I just went down and took a look. If this magma lake is newly formed, then we can only blame us for being unlucky!
Seeing that we all agreed with her idea, Instructor Shui said, "Then we can only go down and have a look now. But the road is difficult to walk, so everyone must be careful and pay attention to safety!" After that, he took the lead and walked towards the path.
.
One by one, everyone followed the water instructor and walked down hard. When I walked up, I realized that the road was too narrow! People had to lean close to the cliff to get there. The magma below was rolling.
I don’t know if it’s because of the impurities in it, but it kept banging and banging, splashing red magma, which made us tremble with fear. The further we went down, the higher and hotter the temperature felt.
Gradually, sweat soaked through our clothes, and our hair was wet with sweat, dripping down the temples and forehead. It made Sha's eyes uncomfortable. But we didn't dare to reach out to wipe it, for fear of losing our balance and falling in.
Inside the magma lake.
The path looked very long, and I couldn't see the scene below. Everything I could see was red lava. I felt really tormented inside! It also felt like the time was extremely long, and I didn't know when I would reach the end.
After probably suffering this for a long time, Instructor Shui, who was walking at the front, suddenly shouted happily: "The path is at the end, there is a cave here! We don't have to go down!", and then got in. We were all so excited.
Ah, it really feels like escaping from death. I can't describe how I feel.
Slowly, everyone safely entered the cave, which was as tall as one person. It was so dark that nothing could be seen inside. The water instructor in front asked Jiao Yiming to turn on the flashlight first because she was the one who entered the cave from the underground lake.
The flashlight I dropped was broken.
When the flashlight turned on, our hearts suddenly started to beat. What caught our eyes was the skeletons of creatures in the cave! There were human beings and animals. They were everywhere on the ground and on the walls of the cave.
!
Everyone turned on their flashlights, and all the scenes in the small cave were displayed before our eyes. There were piles of bones on the ground, most of them were the bones of large animals, and hanging on the four walls seemed to be human bones.
.On the far left is a large stone table. The four table legs are placed in two straight ropeways. The stone table has a diagonal tangent cut in the middle, which should be able to be pulled apart. There is a small one in the middle of the stone table.
There were big holes, and there were chains around them. There were old bloodstains on the stone table. I felt that it was designed to slaughter animals or humans. A scene suddenly appeared in my mind: many weird beast-like people.
An ancient tribe with human or animal heads carried many animals and human slaves of various types, lit torches, and shouted the ancient tribal language. When they entered the cave, two powerful and sturdy alien men opened the stone table.
, then put the animals or human slaves in, push the stone table tightly, and then lock the head of the object to be slaughtered with a chain. All the tribesmen shouted their language, and then a wizard with a bronze mask came over,
A strange sacrificial ceremony was held, and then, the head on the stone table was chopped off with a knife, blood sprayed, and the head rolled to the ground. And his body fell under the stone table, with his neck facing a downward black stone trough.
, the blood in the body flowed down the black stone trough. At this time, the wizard raised his hands and prayed to the sky. All the tribesmen danced a strange dance... My consciousness began to become confused.
At this time, Zhang Li next to me patted me hard on the shoulder and asked: "Hey, what's wrong with you? It seems like you have lost your soul? You are distracted and sweating profusely! What's going on? Are you scared by this scene? "I suddenly came to my senses and quickly said to Zhang Li: "No, I thought of a scene. I think this should be a slaughtering place for sacrifices. I even saw that bloody scene in my mind just now. The killings are very horrific!" As he said that, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with his hand. Everyone looked at me in confusion. I blushed and walked forward, wanting to see what was inside the cave.
