Mysterious creature sightings

In the early morning, the Jiyi Rift Valley was still shrouded in fog.

Looking down from the top of the cliff, the depth alone is enough to make you dizzy, not to mention the mist-filled valley bottom, which makes you dare not go down even after looking twice.

The assembled expedition team is making final preparations, and various machines and equipment are placed on the ground.

There was no fear on the faces of the scientists, and they were talking enthusiastically about the upcoming exciting expedition.

Ling Jiangyue, as a new non-staff member, stood alone at the edge wearing field equipment.

Follow the example of others, tie your wrists and ankles tightly, wear a pager, a searchlight and a special watch. For safety reasons, everyone must also wear pulse earmuffs and breathing filters.

Together with food, drink and other survival items, her backpack was a bit full.

Carrying such a heavy thing on your back may make you die before you reach the destination.Her physical strength is not very good.

But this was her first time getting close to those creatures, and her excitement and joy overwhelmed other thoughts. She pressed hard when loading things, and she didn't pay attention to people walking around her head.

Five or six meters away, Lin Zheng finished talking to the people of the scientific expedition team about the precautions, then he glanced at the field and saw her at a glance.

She is the thinnest person here, squatting on one side and stuffing things into her backpack, like a mushroom swaying in the wind and rain.

He frowned and strode over.

Ling Jiangyue is still worried. There are too many things. Carrying them all will definitely slow down the speed, but it is also inconvenient to hold them in hand. If they fall, they will be useless.

Just as he was thinking about it, a hand stretched out in front of him and took away the heaviest pulse earmuff.

She was stunned and looked up at the person in front of her.

Lin Zheng put her earmuffs into his backpack. He carried the surprisingly large camouflage bag with one hand, easily. Except for the slight tension in the muscles of his arms, there was no sign of any seriousness. a feeling of.

"Is there anything else heavy?" Lin Zheng asked.

Ling Jiangyue blinked and took out two bottles of water: "Thank you."

Lin Zheng didn't answer: "Water can save lives in critical moments. Give me the water. What will you drink if we get separated?"

"Why are we separated? You said you would ensure my safety." She still held up the two bottles of water, her wrists so thin that she might not be able to hold on at any time.

Before thinking clearly, Lin Zheng subconsciously reached out and took the water, paused for a second in mid-air, then threw it into the bag as if nothing happened, still saying with a cold face: "Then I will follow you honestly later."

After saying that, he continued to walk forward, threw his bag aside, and put on the special operations vest of the Special Adjustment Department.

Ling Jiangyue followed him with her eyes, watching as he tightened the restraints on his waist and arms, making his waist and shoulders conspicuously narrow.

The gun handed over by Lin Jia clicked twice in his hand and was stabbed neatly into his lower back.

In the end, he still couldn't breathe even after putting on the surprisingly large backpack.

His physical strength is really good.

No wonder it has not fallen into the hands of any unknown creature for so many years.

She struggled to carry her backpack and blended in with the crowd to listen to the instructions. Lin Zheng had the highest say in this expedition team. None of the unfamiliar faces made any noise and they did whatever they were told.

At 07:30, the inspection team officially set off.

Ling Jiangyue was pulled to the middle of the team by Lin Jia, and something like a leash was placed on her hand.

"You follow me. When we get to the bottom, we walk beside the captain. You need to tell him about the abnormal phenomena around you at any time."

"okay."

"The scientific expedition team that joins will scan, photograph and collect the air and magnetic field along the road, including unusual creatures. You don't have to be surprised. However, if a few elderly people among them observe dangerous creatures. For example, blood-sucking leeches , poisonous spider, I hope you can remind me. You know those common dangerous creatures, right?" The words came to this, and the next second she was about to answer "yes".

Ling Jiangyue pretended not to understand her inadvertent probing, shook his head and said, "It's not like I understand. There should be professional biologists among them. They are much better than me. They don't need me to remind them."

Lin Jia: "It's okay. What you can see with your eyes is much more useful than using common sense to judge."

She smiled sheepishly back.

The bottom of the Jiyi Rift Valley is 300 meters deep. They went down the stone ladder and walked for two hours before landing.

The previously hazy mist now loomed overhead. The cliffs on both sides of the rift valley were covered with vegetation. The sunlight was filtered layer by layer. It even felt like evening in the narrow passage.

There is the sound of waterfalls in the valley, adding humidity to the already dark valley bottom, which is the living environment that most mysterious creatures like to live in.

Ling Jiangyue was already covered in sweat from walking. He was panting and looked up. With his eyes squinted, he could only see the high sky chasm, standing upright like a sword.

It's such a difficult journey, and those creatures are squeezed into such a place to survive, but the researchers still don't let it go. They would rather risk losing their lives and continue to send the hunted things to the laboratory.

Should we say that they are willing to sacrifice anything for their goals? They are "harder" than an ant colony.

"Jiang Yue," Lin Jia, who was walking in front, called her, "come to the front, we are about to start entering the narrow passage."

"it is good."

Ahead is the deepest point that almost no one has ever been to, and the real adventure is about to begin.

The narrowest passage here can only allow two people to pass side by side. The rope holding Ling Jiangyue was transferred to Lin Zheng's waist. She was stuffed behind Lin Zheng and Jiang Yuxing, and was blocked by two tall men. Can't see the road ahead.

"We are about to reach a place that cannot be scanned by the scanner. Please concentrate on it." Jiang Yuxing said.

She nodded from behind and looked through the gap between them, trying to focus on the magnetic field, but when the rope hanging on her swayed, her peripheral vision always followed Lin Zheng's waist.

I don't know if the gun stuck in it could hit anyone.

After walking out of the cliff passage, the road ahead was rugged and bumpy with many branches. The stones under our feet were moss-covered and slippery. Everyone held hands to help us pass.

Ling Jiangyue had never walked such a road. She looked at the moss under her feet curiously and rubbed the soles of her shoes, guessing what dangerous bacteria might be inside.

Lin Zheng, who was at the front, turned around and stretched out his arm to lift her to a large dry rock and stand on it.

"Look at the whistle," he said expressionlessly, "check for anything strange around you."

"Oh." She really started to look around, looking at the sky, the ground, and the water.

After the team had almost arrived safely, the people who had crossed over first moved to the side to observe a spider, muttering something and recording something. The sound of taking pictures frightened a few moths away.

"Be careful."

The leading entomologist was startled, and turned his head to meet a pair of calm black eyes.

Ling Jiangyue smiled at them: "The light from the photo scared away a very beautiful spider, and it jumped onto someone else's web. The poisonous spider on the web almost bit someone."

The entomologists didn't know who she was, but she must be an important person being protected by the UMA Special Branch, so they spoke kindly.

"Spiders have very poor eyesight." So there is no such thing as being frightened by light.

Ling Jiangyue disagreed: "But that one is different. It's looking at me."

Jiang Yuxing, who was walking over, suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck.

Her statement really sounded like she was introducing a distant relative. No wonder Qi Zhiyu was scared to death, and no wonder Captain Lin always doubted her.
