Chapter 224 PIA

As soon as Boss Wu finished saying this, the hole behind us lit up with a faint blue flame.

The light was very weak at first, and then became brighter and brighter. We could hear countless flames flapping their wings.

When Boss Wu saw that I was still looking back, he pulled me and said, "Don't look, go inside quickly, otherwise it won't be fun to be chased by the underworld fire. The space here is so narrow that even if they can't get close, we will be burned to death."

I nodded and said nothing more. I followed Boss Wu to speed up my pace and go deeper.

But our footsteps are obviously not as fast as those fires. Soon our backs are getting brighter and brighter, and we can hardly see the road ahead without lighting equipment. And the back of my head is hot, as if it had been set on fire.

The two of us were pale and had no time to talk. We just walked through the rocks with our feet.

For good, this time I learned from the experience and did not wear jeans or casual trousers. I wore nylon mountaineering trousers, which were very strong, otherwise my trousers would have been torn by the corners of the stone.

To be honest, I hate the feeling of running away like this, but if it's not dangerous, it can't be called a Jedi expedition.

Squeaky......

Although we are moving forward at the fastest speed, our legs can't run fast with wings.

Soon, there was a red-hot iron ball rolling behind me, and there was no day around me. The surrounding wolf teeth are generally uneven rocks strange and strange, reflecting a strange white light.

I inadvertently looked back and saw that a huge blue fireball was only five or six meters away from us. Countless flames burning in the fireball creaked, and the ugly faces with blood-red eyes seemed to warn us of these outsiders who violated their territory.

"I can't escape! Let's find a place to hide quickly!" I gasped and said to Boss Wu, and then shrank my neck and wanted to squat down.

At this time, Boss Wu grabbed my sleeve and pulled me aside.

Suddenly, I found that we had come to a semicircular recessed wall.

I saw that the shape of the wall was a little strange, but I didn't have time to think about it. I hurried to the innermost position with Boss Wu.

At this time, a large group of flames had flown to the position where I had just stood and sped past like a huge train.

I was surprised that according to the flexibility of bats, when they saw us turn, they could immediately turn their heads to catch up and block us in this dead alley, but they did not do so, but overtook us and watched the depths of the cave flying away.

I took a look at Boss Wu and showed doubt.

Boss Wu whispered, "These guys' target is not us. They must have found food when they fly out, so they don't bird us."

At this time, the huge team formed by the underworld had not completely flown through the cave. I looked over against the hot waves, but did not find any food wrapped in these bats.

I think that although these things look like bats, their diet should not be the same as bats, at least they will not catch insects or small reptiles.

At least if they want to catch an insect, they will be burned to ashes as soon as they catch it.

Different species of animals such as bats eat very differently. Some eat insects, some eat fruits, and even eat human blood and livestock blood. According to previous experience, the main food of these underworld fires should be phosphorus in animals or human bones.

But I really don't know how these things carry human corpses. Even charred human corpses weigh 20 to 30 pounds. The largest bat is only the size of a palm, and it is impossible to move such a corpse.

If it was food on the spot, I didn't see any gnawed holes in the bodies outside.

It may be my habit as a biologist. I am very curious about this aspect. If I can't figure it out, I must figure it out.

So when all the bats flew in front of us, I hurried to go out.

But as soon as I took a step, Boss Wu grabbed me and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing?"

I also whispered, "Let me see what these bats eat."

Boss Wu frowned and said, "Don't move, there's something behind."

I said in my heart, what else is behind it? I didn't see the faint blue light from the underworld fire behind me.

However, since Boss Wu said so, I think it makes sense, so he stood still and did not move.

Soon, I heard a few very slight footsteps.

The footsteps are very light, and the sound is particularly strange. It should be some kind of animal, not human.

The reason why this sound is strange is that it makes an extremely slight PIA sound every time it takes.

Regarding this PIA word, I have always felt that this word is missing in Chinese characters, because it is often used, such as a slap in the face of PIA, or a PIA poster on the wall.

And the sound I'm hearing now is not the above two PIAs, but like the sound made when a glass of shaved ice was accidentally poured to the ground.

It is more appropriate to make the sound of some kind of creature with long claws walking on the slate.

The sound was very light, but very rapid, and gradually approached our position.

I said to myself, could it be the strange thing that just ate apples?

Thinking of this, my heart jumped up and felt a little uneasy.

Although I can't see Boss Wu's face, it doesn't look good. I heard his breathing sound a little short.

If there was a little light from the hole when we were close to the hole before, now when all the underworld fires have flown away, we fall into complete darkness.

We only heard the strange footsteps getting closer and closer, and stopped all the way to a place very close to us.

I heard that Boss Wu's breathing was getting smaller and smaller at this time. Obviously, he held his breath.

And I was more nervous than Boss Wu. I clenched my fists and almost squeezed out sweat.

To be honest, what I hate most is waiting. There is a feeling of waiting for death. You never know what is hidden in the dark.

But we have to wait at this moment, because since that step has stopped near us, it means that it has found us. In this case, we should not act rashly.

Just lowered our breath and waited, but the nerves maintained a high degree of vigilance. Any abnormality in front of us, even if a needle falls to the ground or a breeze blows, will be immediately noticed by us.
