"Look, it's Corliss's car." Laput, who was driving, muttered with a cigarette in his mouth: "This bastard is really here."
After everyone got out of the car, they saw that the iron door that originally sealed the entrance to the mine had been pried open. It was obvious that Corris had already entered.
"David, take them in first, and Tina and I will check again to make sure there are no pursuers behind."
David nodded when he heard this, turned on the flashlight, and walked into the mine first. After everyone else went in, Xie Lun summoned grass and swallowed the scarlet sports car.
"Boss, I still don't understand why we have to go through the mine?" Tina asked in a low voice from the side, "To be honest, with our strength, crossing the swamp shouldn't be difficult, right?"
Xie Lun glanced at her: "What? Do you have claustrophobia?"
"No," Tina curled her lips, "I just hate spiders?"
"Oh?" Xie Lun became interested, "I saw that you were quite fierce just now. I didn't notice that you were scared of such a big spider. Why are you so scared now?"
"People are not afraid of the big ones," Tina stretched out her arms to hug Sherron with some fear, "On the contrary, the small ones are annoying, especially the smaller they are, the more irritated they feel."
Xie Lun laughed: "Are you worried about spiders in the mine?"
Tina pouted: "Needless to say, there must be one. Spiders like damp and dark places. For them, underground mines are the best villas, the ones with big gardens."
Xie Lun hugged her slender waist and said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to be afraid of spiders. It's really unexpected."
Tina pinched Sherron and whispered: "Okay, you haven't answered my question yet."
Xie Lun smiled and said: "It's not that I can't walk in the swamp, but because of the following two reasons, I chose to walk in the underground mine instead of the swamp."
"What two reasons?"
"First, the swamp is not concealed enough. Once there are planes or drones in the sky, we can be found. As for the second reason..."
Xie Lun paused and lowered his voice: "The plane crashed into the river, and some unknown toxin polluted the river. The earthworms in the mud beside the river became larger, and the spiders that ate the earthworms also became larger, and the people who drank the water went crazy... What about other creatures in the swamp?"
Sherron looked at Tina: "For example, David and the others once heard that there are crocodiles hidden deep in the swamp."
Listening to Sherron's deep voice, Tina imagined the crocodile hidden under the water in her mind. She couldn't help but shiver all over her body. She nodded and said, "Boss, you are wise and right. We should go into the mine."< /p>
The mine was not dug too low, and Xie Lun could walk quickly with his head slightly lowered. After walking more than ten meters, Xie Lun saw a bright light in front of him. It was David and others gathered together to look at the map in Feilan's hand.
Xie Lun stepped forward: "There is no one behind, let's go."
Feilan nodded and said in a deep voice: "I will lead the way, you must follow me closely. Once you get lost in there, it is basically impossible to get out. Also, if you feel dizzy, nauseated, or smell other abnormal smells Yes, you must speak up quickly. The mine collapsed back then, probably because of the gas explosion."
As Fei Lan spoke, his eyes swept over everyone's faces, and finally landed on Sherron: "Shaellen, Mike and Scarlett are leaving it to you."
"Don't worry," Xie Lun smiled slightly, "You can lead the way boldly, I will protect you from behind."
"Oh~~"
Russell and Rupt whistled at the same time.
Feilan's pretty face blushed slightly, stopped talking, turned and walked forward. Sherron followed closely behind with Mike and Scarlett, followed by Tina, Judy and Rupt. David and Russell came to the rear.
The winding mine is like a maze. Although there is still a miner's lamp hanging above the head, there is no electricity. In this invisible environment, everyone used the flashlights in their hands to shuttle through the mine.
Although Feilan can understand the drawings, he still has to stop from time to time to discern the direction. But it seemed like she was quite confident and basically never hesitated.
The further inside you go, the duller the air becomes. Fortunately, there was no gas leakage that Feilan was worried about. Everyone could still cover their mouths and noses with handkerchiefs and continue to move forward.
At first there were still people talking, but as time went by, the voices became less and less. In the end, except for the sound of footsteps and heavy breathing, there was no other sound in the team.
While walking, Feilan, who was walking at the front, suddenly stopped. With quick eyesight and quick hands, Xie Lun stopped Mike and Scarlett to prevent them from running into Fei Lan, who were already running away and were dizzy.
However, the people at the back of the team did not react so quickly. They only heard a series of ouch sounds, either hitting the back of the person in front, or banging the head of the person behind.
"Shh!"
Feilan quickly turned around and made a silent gesture, hunched over and looked forward carefully. Xie Lun walked to her side lightly and whispered: "What's wrong?"
"There is a situation ahead," Fei Lan also whispered. "There was a black shadow flashing past the front just now. Although I didn't see it clearly, I suspect it might be a spider."
"I'll go over and take a look, please be careful."
Sherron drew his gun and slowly walked forward. Turning the corner, Xie Lun soon discovered that layers of white spider webs began to appear in the potholes ahead, and the ground was covered with footprints left by spiders passing by.
Judging from the footprints, these spiders came from another pothole, so Xie Lun and the others found no trace of spiders along the way.
Xie Lun carefully retreated to Feilan and whispered: "There is indeed a problem ahead, can we take a detour?"
Feilan took a look at the drawing, shook his head and said: "The road ahead is the only way, and we are very close to the underground cave now."
"Then we can only take risks." Xie Lun took a breath and said in a deep voice, "Then I will walk in front and you will guide the way from behind. Everyone else should brace themselves and be careful. Do you understand?"
Seeing everyone nodded, Xie Lun turned around and walked forward.
When they reached the pothole in front, Mike suddenly said, "Spiders can sense prey through the vibration of these spider webs, so we must be careful not to touch these spider webs..."
Before he finished speaking, everyone saw the spider web in front of them vibrate slightly at the same time.
Xie Lun raised his hand and said hesitantly: "It's none of my business, I haven't walked in yet."
The spider web vibrated again, but this time everyone noticed that the vibration was not caused by themselves, but from another pothole.
Everyone turned around and saw that the ground was shaking more and more frequently. It seemed that there was a huge thing trying to move this way from the hole.
"What are you still doing? Run away!"
Xie Lun reacted immediately, growled at the others, and ran forward first. The others came to their senses and quickly followed Xie Lun forward.
As soon as the group of them ran into the pit on the opposite side, a spider emerged from another pit. I saw that this spider was not particularly huge, about the same height as an average adult male, but its whole body was covered with hard and thick black armor, and its eight claws were extremely thick. It walked like a tank, causing the ground to tremble slightly.
Two black, ivory-like pincer-shaped tusks collided violently in the air several times, and after sparks shot out, the tank spider strode towards Xie Lun and the others.
