Original War

Chapter 56

After a good night’s sleep, the hunting team packed up early the next morning and began to walk through the cave.

Shao Xuan slept well this night, and did not dream of anything terrifying.

“Everyone must follow closely, especially A Xuan and Spear. The first time you go, you must pay special attention. If you lose it, you may never get out again.” Mai said solemnly.

This is not a threat to him, but a fact. Even the first few generations of ancestors who opened up this hunting route finally found the right way after paying a heavy price. In this big maze, I don’t know how many people go in and they won’t be able to. come out.

“Well, don’t worry, we will pay attention.” Shao Xuan said.

Spear also nodded. In the hunting team, he has always been more disciplined. He also knows that listening to the older hunting warriors is correct.

It got darker and darker as it walked in, and there were people holding torches in the hunting squad a few times away.

After gradually moving away from the entrance of the cave, there was only the light of the torch in the cave. It was not bright, but it was enough to see the road underneath.

Just like what Mai and the others said to Shao Xuan, in the cave, the more you go inside, the more you will find that there are criss-crossing, and there are many forks. Sometimes when you turn a corner, you will find two or three holes, but the hunting team keeps walking. There is only one of them.

Even if there are many ways to communicate with the outside world, but people who really enter, those who don’t know the way will get lost very quickly, and they may return to their original place after turning a few times.

Probably because there are many caves that communicate with the outside world, there is no suffocation in the caves, but there will always be some faint winds, and there are rhythmic sounds like the breathing of a large animal.

There are no other aggressive creatures in the cave for the time being, but I heard that there are also some insects and spiders like Life in it.

The passage in the cave is not only a lot of bends, but also high and low, sometimes down, and sometimes steep, but also pay attention not to fall behind. In the hunting team, the most familiar roads are basically those with many years of experience. The veteran soldiers, younger ones like Lang Ga, may not be able to remember such a complicated route.

It’s not that no one has thought of marking on the cave wall, but every time after marking, those marks disappear when they go again. Various incidents convinced the hunting team that there must be a stone insect king in this mountain, as the ancestors had guessed, but no one had seen it.

Therefore, later hunting teams stopped going to mark the cave wall, and tried not to make loud noises when passing through the cave. They were afraid of disturbing the giant in the mountain.

In the tribe, the stone insects do seem harmless, but the stone insect king insects are different. Otherwise, how can they be crowned with the word “king”?

Just like when the hunting team was on the way before, Shao Xuan and Spear walked in the middle of the team, which could better protect them.

Shao Xuan used his special ability to observe other places in the cave. Sometimes he saw some larger bugs. However, those bugs did not attack the hunting team, and the hunting team members would not take the initiative to provoke. One is that they don’t. Knowing how many such insects there are, it would be difficult to attract a large group, and they would not want to make too much noise, if they accidentally alarmed the big guy in the mountain, it would be a disaster. Come.

If the cave is in a straight line, it will not take long to get out of the mountain, but the hunting team spent almost half a day in the mountain before getting Mai’s sentence: “It’s almost the exit.”

Turning a corner and going out, there are two crossings in front of him, one of which is the road leading to the exit, but at the moment, there are spiders blocking the two crossings.

It is an eyeless spider, probably because of long-term life in a cave where no light is visible, so the eyes gradually degenerate. Their torso is relatively small, but the legs are very long, and they can directly cover the crossing like a cover.

Mai and the other two warriors who were walking in the front silently threatened the spiders blocking the crossing with torches and spears. They could feel the heat of the flame, and they would shrink back when the torches swayed.

On the road leading to the outside of the cave, there were only two eyeless spiders staying there. In comparison, there were more on the other side, and, because of the shaking torches, the spiders on both sides of the crossing moved and faced each other. The torch-bearers waved their cheeks and their teeth were opened, as if to warn the hunting team.

“Regardless of them, hurry and leave!” Over there, Mai has already driven away the eyeless spiders blocking the crossing, and greeted the team members behind to catch up. Based on his experience, eyeless spiders rarely fight people persistently. , Their food is other insects in the cave, so as long as you are careful not to irritate them and step back, you can still avoid them smoothly.

However, the accident happened at this time. Shao Xuan, who was guarded in the middle, suddenly felt a cold in the back of his neck and became vigilant.

Shao Xuan raised his head abruptly, and saw a black whip shadow rolling down like lightning, and Shao Xuan could only block it with a knife, but the whole was tightly circled and pulled up.

All of this happened in an instant. Most people in the hunting team were busy guarding against those eyeless spiders, but they didn’t expect that there was one above their heads, but it didn’t seem to be an eyeless spider. The person who noticed was still a step slower and couldn’t stop it.

“A Xuan!”

“Mai, A Xuan was dragged away!”

“How can there be a hole in it! There was none last time!”

“What was that just now?!”

At this time, everyone could not give in. They strongly blocked the approaching eyeless spiders, stabbing a few back, but Shao Xuan was dragged away from above, and the difficulty of going up was a little bit difficult. Mai asked the others. To deal with the eyeless spider approaching, he climbed up the cave wall. It didn’t take long for Mai to come back again, his expression ugly.

The creature that dragged away Shao Xuan was too fast. When Mai caught up, it was gone, and Shao Xuan’s shouts were not heard. Moreover, there was a gap in the way up, down, or straight. After several attempts, Mai returned without success.

In the mountain, those creatures who have lived in the dark for so many years know much more about the cave than they do.

I was also worried about the other members of the hunting team. Mai could only return first. After all, he was the leader of the hunting team, and he was responsible for more than 30 other people.

Hengheng hammered the cave wall, and Mai returned to deal with more and more eyeless spiders with the rest of the team.

The situation is becoming more and more unfavorable for them. The hunting team members can only rush out from the crossing first. It is not far from the cave. Eyeless spiders will not chase them outside. They are not happy.

It’s common for hunting teams to dismantle people. This time it’s Shao Xuan. There will be others in the future. It’s just that Lang Ga and the others are younger and less sensible. They want to keep looking for them, but they are pulled away by others. . Some veterans have long been accustomed to such parting.

Many hunting fighters still sighed, why is this child A Xuan so unlucky? The first time he went out to hunt, he encountered everything.

It didn’t take long for the hunting team members to see the light, and the eyeless spiders following them stopped.

On the other side, Shao Xuan, who was dragged away, was uncomfortable.

What dragged him away was a kind of bug in the cave of Life, which was slightly smaller than the eyeless spider, but the power and speed might not lose to the eyeless spider.

Shao Xuan’s long antennae are the long antennae of the insects. There is a hook-like jagged structure at the tip of the antennae. If it weren’t for Shao Xuan’s quick response, he would block those serrations with a stone knife. Was cut. The serrations on the front of the tentacles made a gurgling sound on the stone knife.

Struggling hard, Shao Xuan only loosened a little, but couldn’t get away. When he changed direction rapidly at the turning point, Shao Xuan directly slammed into the stone wall at the corner, almost vomiting the food he ate in the morning.

After enduring the pain, Shao Xuan pulled out the tooth knife with the broken tip and slashed it towards the tentacles.

Snapped!

The tentacles that engulfed Shao Xuan were chopped off. After the bug lost one of the tentacles, it was so painful that it jumped on the spot. Shao Xuan, who was thrown away, rolled and fell into a channel next to it. Facing down, Shao Xuan slid down the slope before he could stand firmly.

I don’t know how far he slipped, and when he finally stopped, Shao Xuan was dizzy. I hit the cave wall several times and was dragged all the way. Now my whole body hurts.

After gasping for breath, Shao Xuan still wanted to return along the original road. The longer he stayed in it, the more dangerous it became.

As soon as he was about to climb up the steep slope, Shao Xuan heard a whistling sound coming from a passage behind him, like the wind blowing, but with rhythm.
