Mrs. Du blew up again

Chapter 136 The Devil in the Fire

"Xia Xiaojian, we seem to be in serious trouble." Yang Saonian's voice was a little trembling, I looked at him, his face was pale, and he looked quite frightened.

I glanced around and found that there were more corpses in the middle of the river, and relatively fewer on both sides.

I grabbed Yang Saonian and whispered in his ear, "How far is it from here to the cave you mentioned?"

"I didn't notice either. It took about 10 minutes to swim down from there."

10 minutes?I thought to myself: at least 5000 meters is needed. These female carrion corpses are constantly floating down. If the distance of 5000 meters is full of floating corpses, at least a few thousand corpses will be needed.

This number completely shocked my world view. The faces of these girls did not have any ferocious expressions, indicating that they should be very peaceful when they died, but their eyes were all open, which means that they will not die with peace.

The corpses moved past me, and I took the opportunity to observe their bodies. The clothes were intact. If it weren't for the ancient costumes they were wearing, I really doubted that these girls were just people who had just died.

I said to Yang Saonian beside me: "It's too troublesome for us to go upstream in the middle. The middle of the river flows faster. All these floating corpses come along the middle. Let's swim to the left, where there are fewer corpses."

"Okay, I'll lead the way, you follow closely." Yang Saonian took off the backpack behind him and threw it to the front. He grabbed the backpack with both hands and pushed away the floating corpses approaching us. I followed him and moved slowly.

The female corpse almost rubbed against our body, the cold touch of the corpse added to the visual impact, and the sour water gushed out of my already dry stomach uncontrollably.

We managed to swim to the edge of the water, and there were relatively few corpses in front of us, but countless blue fireballs gathered above our heads, and they seemed to be following us all the time.

Yang Saonian raised his head and looked at the fireballs irritably and asked me: "Xia Xiaojian, what are these things, they seem to be following us all the time."

I looked up at these things that were close at hand. They were floating at a height of about half a meter above our heads. They were all fireballs the size of bowls. They glowed blue-green on the outside and faint orange on the inside. Like a piece of fierce grimace.

I shook my head and said, "I haven't seen these things before, but I heard from the teacher that a kind of phosphorous fire will be formed in the bones of the corpse during the decay process. Maybe these are phosphorous fires."

"These things seem to be alive, they can't be ghosts."

Yang Sainian stretched out his hand to strike those phosphorous fires impatiently. I called him hastily when I saw it, but he struck too fast, and still knocked down many phosphorous fires around him. Not only did the blue flame not go out after falling into the water, Instead, it quickly extended and surrounded us.

I yelled that it was not good, grabbed Yang Saonian and shouted: "Get into the water quickly."

The two of us plunged into the water. I glanced up from the water and found that the circle of fireball had spread to the place where Yang Saonian and I were just now. Many white bugs suddenly appeared in the water where the flame swept. Wriggling, the worm is two or three times bigger than the maggot, and it seems to be multiplying and growing rapidly. Seeing this, Yang Saonian and I were completely dumbfounded.

There were more and more bugs, I didn't dare to think too much, I closed my eyes and swam forward desperately, I didn't know how far I swam, so I took the time to look back, the ghost fires were not there come with me.

Finally escaped the thrilling moment.Although I don't know the origin of those bugs, but since these blue fires come out with the corpses, they must belong to the Yin fire. I have heard from my grandfather that there are two types of flames in the world. Then, sure enough, these fireballs fell into the water not only did not extinguish but gradually grew in size, the bugs inside were definitely not good.

Finally, we reached the cave mentioned by Yang Saonian after we ran desperately. I felt a burning pain in my throat when I landed. Take a breath, and during the process of inhaling, you will also see pale floating corpse faces flashing back and forth in your eyes, the feeling is too uncomfortable.

Yang Saonian lay on a big rock without moving for a long time, I knocked on him: "Are you okay?"

After waiting for a while, he took a deep breath and sat up slowly: "Half life is gone, you saw those things just now."

I thought for a while and asked, "Are you talking about those big bugs?"

Yang Saonian nodded again and again: "Well, I saw the heads of those worms, they were brown, and their faces looked like human faces, Xia Xiaojian, you study archaeology, tell me, what exactly are these guys? What is it? It looks too scary."

I reached out and took off my coat and wrung off the water on it. I was so cold.

"I'm just a rookie in the field of archaeology. You think I'm an encyclopedia, but I think these bugs should be something in the blue fire. I knew it was bad when you waved them just now. A human face can also be vaguely seen, which may be the effect of the insects being magnified by the light inside."

Yang Saonian also followed me in taking off my coat and wringing it dry. He seemed to think of something and then suddenly stopped: "But it's not right, all these corpses look intact. These things must not come out of those floating corpses. Where did the will-o'-the-wisps come from?"

I frowned and bowed my head in thought. Yang Saonian's words reminded me that the floating corpses we encountered all the way along the way basically looked like they had just died, and there was no sign of decay in the body. Since the corpses were not damaged, These blue lights can't be something born from the corpse, so what are they?
I'm used to being the first to think of Yun Muchen when I encounter this kind of problem, only then did I realize that there was no Yun Muchen in the cave except the two of us.

I asked Yang Saonian, "Where's Yun Muchen?"

Only then did Yang Saonian realize something was wrong: "Yeah, where is he? He was walking around here just now, where did he go now?"

"Give me a flashlight!"

Yang Saonian opened his water release backpack, fiddled with it for a while and finally found another spare flashlight. I took it and stood up and walked around the cave. This underground cave is not big, but the stalagmites, stone pillars and crystals inside They are all well preserved and beautiful.

The water in the underground river flows out of the cave, but I didn’t see any corpses coming out here. I hurriedly got up and walked to the river. There were still a few female corpses floating downstream on the river not far away. It was strange. , Where did these corpses come from?
