Emergency Doctor Mercenary Road: Chapter 378 Uneasy hidden in the dark river
Chapter 378 Uneasy hidden in the dark river
The footsteps of "Ta Ta Ta" sounded rhythmically in the cave.
In an area more than a dozen meters in front, there were three skeletons lying at intervals, some with their heads facing their direction, and some with their heads inward. Especially the two skeletons in the back with their heads turned inward have a rifle on their right hand side.
The head of the skeleton on their side is lowered, the back is up, and the military uniform on the body is relatively complete. Lu Fei was about to turn over the body with a trekking pole, but he felt uncomfortable, and he could vaguely see an imperceptible ups and downs on the military uniform.
He shuddered in his heart and took a step back involuntarily.
Dewey was a little impatient behind him. He came up from behind, leaned down and stretched out the HKM27 barrel in his hand to stalk the skeleton.
Seeing that the barrel of the gun was about to hit the corpse of the skeleton, Lu Fei was anxious, his right hand stretched out like an arrow, grabbed Dewey's collar, and pulled it back with force.
Dewey was thrown backwards by surprise, and was carried by Vasily behind him.
Dewey said with a stern face: "Jack, you are crazy. Although I can't beat you, you can't just attack me."
Bell looked real from the left side, and reprimanded: "Who made you mess around, Jack saved your life! You don't know the depth of the beeping, come here and take a closer look at the back of the skeleton."
Dewey blushed and looked down suspiciously.
At this time, the military uniform on the back of the skeleton began to undulate in waves, which was extremely strange. Dewey's goosebumps all over his body, and he suddenly hesitated, and said in a trembling voice, "What the **** is this, Jack, I'm an idiot, I was wrong, go back and invite you to drink."
Lu Fei said with a smile: "If I want to bully you, I'll just kick your ass. I guess the skeleton uniform should be a reptile, and the probability of it being a snake is very high. It's cold and damp here, and the skeleton uniform can Keeping warm and shielding from the wind is a favorite place for cold-blooded snakes like snakes.”
Lu Fei inserted the gun into the holster, took out the scabbard Yanling knife from the backpack, and pulled the knife out of the scabbard.
On the other side, Bell on the left has tied himself and Webster's trekking poles together, and slowly stretched out to hook the skeleton's uniform. Lu Fei nodded to Bell, and then Bell slammed the mountain stick back.
The military uniform and skeleton were turned over, a sturdy viper suddenly raised its head, the snake body was coiled and curled, the snake head was raised, the snake letter hissed, and spit at Lu Fei two meters away.
After seeing the snake's appearance, Lu Fei pointed his long knife diagonally and stepped forward without hesitation. The viper felt Lu Fei's approach, and immediately bounced up, rushing towards him fiercely like lightning.
"Huh", the sharp sword light flashed, the Viper jumping in the air was cut in half between the lightning and flint, and it fell down! The Viper twitched on the ground twice and then stopped moving.
"Huh, so hanging, I was almost bitten by a snake. Look at the part where it came out and attacked, it was aimed at the throat. Jack, I'm sorry, you can beat me and scold me in the future, and I will never return my mouth. ."
"You stupid and bold, you dare to mess around in such a turbulent place. Be good, if you don't want your Santis to be a widow."
"Yes, yes, the captain's lesson is right, hey, this skeleton also has a calfskin bag under it."
Lu Fei followed Dewey's fingers, leaned down and picked up the small bag with his gloved right hand. After opening it, he poured out more than twenty gold marks from the bag.
"Jack, keep it away, lend the knife to Dewey and let him try the two skeletons in front of him." Bell said.
Lu Fei smiled and turned the knife handle upside down and handed it to Dewey.
Dewey knew that the captain was trying to punish him for messing around and wanted him to make corrections in time. With the help of Webster, who volunteered to help, he picked up two skeletons in a row.
One of the two skeletons still had a viper in ambush under him, and was hacked to death by Dewey with a few knives. If Lu Fei didn't feel sorry for his knife and stopped him, I'm afraid it wasn't Dewey who wanted to kill the dead viper on the ground. Seventeen or eight cuts.
They harvested two more small bags of gold coins and were about to move forward when Lu Fei raised his hand to stop the brothers.
"There is a faint gurgling sound in front of me, and I can feel the cold water vapor. I'm afraid there is an underground river in front of me, that is, groundwater. Look, there are several snakes. I'm afraid there will be more snakes, worms, rats and ants in front of me, but it's okay. I have a bottle of balm from last time in my gun bag, everyone smeared a little on the hands, face, and insteps, and then tightened the trouser legs."
"Fortunately, we have Jack, an expert in snake prevention. I always feel a little nervous in this ghost place. Why are there so many snakes in this winter? Shouldn't they hibernate?" Fanny shook her head and asked Lu Fei.
"Don't you think the temperature here is much higher than outside? Maybe it's warm in winter and cool in summer. However, the two snakes should be preparing to hibernate and rest just now, and we disturbed them. I just want everyone to be prepared, the front Not necessarily snakes."
"I hope there are fewer snakes. This thing makes my scalp tingle. The snakes we encountered in the Sahara gave me nightmares for several days. I saw the ribbon-shaped object for a while and my heart was tight." Bell fought a cold war. road.
"Ha, it turns out that the captain is also afraid, but I'm not afraid, you hide behind me." Ada patted her chest and said proudly.
"Cough, yes, let's go, the captain should hide behind me." Raphael wanted to say something, but was suffocated.
The group continued to walk forward, the sound of running water became clearer and clearer, and after two or three minutes, they walked out of the cave passage. A small river with a width of only about 10 meters appeared in front. The space here is much larger, and the height of the top mountain is even ten meters high.
There was a pile of rocks near the small river, and a lot of moss grew on it. The wild fox brothers were still a few meters away from the small river. The leader, Lu Fei, stopped and pointed 30 degrees to the right of the opposite bank of the small river.
"Brothers, look, there is a corridor on the right side of the opposite bank, and the ground seems to be concrete."
"That's right! This should be the treasure cave of the Eagle Party, let's cross the river." Fanny's eyes lit up, and her headlight shone towards the bank, looking for a place to cross the river.
Lu Fei found a fist-sized stone in the pile of stones and threw it into the river.
"Pop Tong", the stone falls into the river, the sound of the water is deep and heavy, and you can tell that the water is not shallow when you hear it.
The 8 brothers frowned when they heard the sound of the stone falling into the water. They didn't expect the water in the river to be so deep. However, Lu Fei thought of several skeletons in the passage, and said, "There should be a way to pass through the river, otherwise how did the four people who died in the passage cross the river? Let's look around to see if there is a rope bridge. kind of device.”
Bell couldn't help but nodded and said yes, waved to make everyone spread out nearby, and used headlights and flashlights to find a passage to cross the river.
Lu Fei and Fanny were in charge of observing the river surface. Their headlights illuminated the river water and moved little by little along the river. After tens of seconds, Lu Fei saw the front of the cement channel. There was a huge block about ten centimeters underwater. Shaped shadow, there is a block every 1 meter, a total of 5 blocks.
Fanny ran over, Lu Fei pulled her from the shore, Fanny stretched out her arms as much as she could, stuck her trekking pole into the river, poked the water, felt the stability in her hand, and then said loudly: "Brothers, there are stone pillars under the water, it should be a stone pillar for crossing the river, but now the river is higher than the top of the stone pillar.
Ada in the distance heard Fanny's cry, turned around and walked towards the river. She stepped on a soft and slippery place under her feet. She looked down, and the lights were everywhere, and several snakes twisted in sight. together.
"Ah, snake!" Ada jumped up like an electric shock, jumped onto Raphael's body a few steps away at a lightning-fast speed, and hugged him tightly, shivering.
Fortunately, the snakes that she stepped on were in hibernation, and they didn't take the opportunity to bite her and wandered away.
Raphael was also taken aback. With Ada hanging on his body, he turned and ran to the river. They didn't calm down until Lu Fei stood in front of them. At this time, Ada was embarrassed to walk away from Raphael. Slipped off.
Lu Fei smiled and said: "Isn't someone afraid of snakes, hee hee, don't worry, other people are more afraid of snakes than you. They have all run away, don't be nervous. I glanced at the few snakes that were wandering, but there were only a dozen of them. Just a venomous water snake.
Bell shook his head and said with a smile: "Let's cross the river, everyone is uncomfortable staying here."
Lu Fei turned his head to look at the dark river, feeling a little uneasy in his heart, thought for a while and said, "I think there may be dangerous creatures in the river, but now I have to cross the river, there are many snakes here, and it is not safe to stay by the river. It's me at the head, Dewey, give me the knife, and you wait for me to cross the river before you leave, brothers armed with guns to prepare. After I cross the river, I will cover you to cross the river."
Bell nodded, the brothers picked up the HKM27 from behind and lit the river with their headlights.
Lu Fei put his whole body together, slowly leaning on his toes, stepped on the first stone pillar, stepped on it, and felt that it was quite strong. Continue to lift your legs and step forward. The brothers behind him watched nervously as he moved forward in the water.
Jumping one step at a time, when Lu Fei reached the fourth big stone pillar, he keenly observed that the water flow around him had changed slightly. His heart tightened, and his calf immediately jumped up from the water!
At the same time, a python with the thickness of the bowl rolled over! The thick black snake body and the extremely long snake body swept across the river and stone pillars like a wind and a cloud, and the momentum was extremely ferocious!
Lu Fei was in mid-air, not afraid of danger, the long knife in his hand slashed down suddenly, the sharp light of the knife pierced the air with a squeak, and the tip of the knife cut through the python's body in an instant.
The boa constrictor shuddered in pain, and the snake's body was already submerged in the river.
At this time, the gunshots of the brothers on the bank of the small river also started.
The gunshots of "da da da" roared and vibrated in the cave, and dozens of bullets shot into the river instantly. The pythons in the river were hit from head to tail, and the sound of puff puff continued.
The boa constrictor tumbled desperately in the water after suffering from pain. While rushing about, he rushed towards the shore where the wild fox brothers were.
"Cross the river quickly, don't fight recklessly." Lu Fei shouted from the opposite bank, but the P14 in his hand did not dare to shoot, for fear of accidentally shooting his brothers.
Fortunately, the giant python was badly injured when it rushed to the river bank, no longer rampage, and sank into the river in a blink of an eye.
The brothers on the other side quickly ran up to the underwater stone pillar, and after a few seconds, everyone rushed across the river. Bell waved Vasily and Webster with guns on the dark passage behind them.
After reaching the safe area, the big guy relaxed a little, and Fanny said in horror: "This, what is this, how can there be such a big python in the dark river of the Alps, those who don't know think we are in the Amazon River.
Raphael shook his head and said, "Yeah, where can such a big python get food, and there is no such species in Europe."
Bell said solemnly: "There is a ghostly atmosphere everywhere in this place, everyone be careful."
Lu Fei snorted and said, "I have a good nose, I just smelled a faint stench, and I also had some strange experiences. It seems that the oxygen content here is too high, a bit like the smell in the hyperbaric oxygen chamber I used to go to during my internship. "
Ada looked disbelieving and questioned: "I believe you smell the odor, and even the oxygen content is high, you can feel it?"
