After a good night's sleep, the hunting party packed up and started walking through the cave early the next morning.

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

"Everyone must follow closely, especially Ah Xuan and Spear. It's the first time you leave, you have to pay extra attention. If you get lost, you may not be able to get out again." Mai said solemnly.

It's not a threat, it's a fact. Even the ancestors of the first generations who opened up this hunting route finally found the right path after paying a heavy price. 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, and he knows that listening to the words of the older hunting fighters is right.

It got darker and darker as we walked in, and every few people in the hunting team were holding torches.

After gradually getting away from the entrance of the cave, there is only the light of the torch in the cave, which is not bright, but it is enough to see the road under your feet.

Just like what Mai and the others said to Shao Xuan, the more you go in the cave, the more you will find that it is crisscrossed and there are many forks. Sometimes there are two or three holes when you turn a corner, but the hunting team keeps going. Only one of them.

Even if there are many paths that communicate with the outside world, but those who really enter, those who don’t know the path will quickly get lost, and they may turn around a few times and return to the original place.

Probably because there are many holes connected to the outside world, there is no suffocation inside the cave, but there will always be some faint wind, and there is a rhythmic sound like the breathing of some kind of large animal.

No other aggressive creatures have been seen in the cave for the time being, but I heard that there are some insects and spiders living in it.

The passages in the cave are not only curved, but also high and low. Sometimes they slide down, sometimes they have to climb steep slopes. Be careful not to fall behind. In the hunting team, the people who are most familiar with the road are basically those with many years of experience. The old warriors, and the younger ones like Lang Ga may not be able to remember such a complicated route clearly.

It's not that no one thought about marking the cave walls, but every time after marking, the traces disappeared when we walked again. Various events made the hunting team believe that there must be a stone worm king worm in this mountain as the ancestors guessed, but no one has seen it.

Therefore, later hunting teams stopped marking numbers on the cave walls, and tried not to make loud noises when passing through the cave, for fear of disturbing the giant in the mountain.

In the tribe, stone worms do look harmless, but the stone worm king worm is different, otherwise how can they be crowned with the word "king"?

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

Shao Xuan used his unique ability to observe other places in the cave, and sometimes he saw some relatively large bugs, but those bugs did not attack the hunting team, and the members of the hunting team would not take the initiative to provoke them. I know how many such insects are there. If it attracts a large group, it will be difficult to handle. They don't want to make too much noise. If they accidentally disturb the big guy in the mountain, it will really be a disaster. come.

If the cave was in a straight line, it would not take long to get out of the mountain, but the hunting team spent almost half a day in the mountain before they got a sentence from Mai: "It's almost the exit."

Turning a corner and walking out, there are two crossings in front, one of which is the road leading to the exit, but at this moment, spiders clawed at the two crossings and blocked them.

It was an eyeless spider, probably because it lived in a cave where no light could be seen for a long time, its eyes gradually degenerated. Their torsos are relatively small, but the legs are very long, which can directly cover the mouth like a hood.

Mai and the other two warriors who walked in the front silently terrorized the spiders blocking the crossing with torches and spears.

They can feel the scorching heat of the flames and flinch when the torches are swaying.

On the road leading to the outside of the cave, only two eyeless spiders stayed there. In comparison, there were more on the other side. Moreover, because of the shaking torches, the spiders at the entrances on both sides moved, facing each other. The torch-bearers waved their chelae, their claws clasped, as if to warn the hunters.

"Don't care about them, leave quickly!" Over there, Mai had already driven away the eyeless spiders blocking the crossing, and beckoned the team members behind to follow quickly. Based on his experience, eyeless spiders rarely fight people persistently. , their food is other bugs in the hole, so as long as you are careful not to provoke them, and take a 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 chill on the back of his neck. He became alert and looked at the eyeless spiders waving their cheliceras around. No, it was not them!

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

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

"A Xuan!"

"Mai, Ah Xuan was dragged away!"

"Why is there a hole in it! It didn't exist last time I came here!"

"What was that just now?!"

At this time, everyone couldn't care about giving in, and forcefully blocked the approaching eyeless spiders, stabbing them back a few times, but Shao Xuan was dragged away from above, and it was a little difficult to go up, Mai let others To deal with the approaching eyeless spider, he climbed up the wall of the cave. It didn't take long for Mai to come back again with an ugly face.

The creature that dragged away Shao Xuan moved too fast. When Mai caught up, it was gone, and Shao Xuan's shout could not be heard. Moreover, there was a fork not far away, extending up, down or straight. There are all, after several attempts, Mai can only come back without success.

In the mountains, those creatures who have lived in the dark for an unknown number of years know much more about the cave than they do.

Worrying about the rest of the hunting team, Mai had to return first. After all, he was the leader of the hunting team, and he was responsible for more than 30 other people.

Heenhen hammered the wall of the cave, and Mai returned to deal with the growing number of eyeless spiders with the rest of the team.

The situation became more and more unfavorable for them. The people of the hunting team could only rush out from the crossing first. It was not far from the cave, and the eyeless spiders would not chase them outside. They were not happy.

It is common for hunting teams to lose people. This time it was Shao Xuan, and there will be others in the future. It’s just that Lang Ga and the others are younger and less rational. . Some veterans have long been accustomed to such partings.

Many hunting warriors also sighed in their hearts, 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 people of the hunting party to see the light, and the eyeless spiders who were chasing behind them also stopped their steps.

On the other hand, Shao Xuan, who was dragged away, was not feeling well.

What dragged him away was a cave-dwelling bug, slightly smaller than the eyeless spider, but not necessarily inferior to the eyeless spider in power and speed.

What caught Shao Xuan was the long antennae of the insect. The front of the antennae had a serrated structure like a hook. If Shao Xuan had not reacted quickly and blocked those serrations with a stone knife, he might have been caught when he was caught. cut. The serrations at the tip of the tentacles made a rattling sound on the stone knife.

Striving hard, Shao Xuan only loosened a little, but he couldn't break free. When he turned sharply at the corner, Shao Xuan slammed into the stone wall at the corner, and almost spit out the food he had eaten in the morning.

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

Snapped!

The tentacle that wrapped Shao Xuan was cut off, and the worm jumped around in pain after losing one of its tentacles. Shao Xuan, who was thrown away, rolled and fell into a channel next to it. This channel is Facing down, Shao Xuan didn't have time to stand firm, and slid down the slope again.

I don't know how far he slipped, and when his feet finally stopped, Shao Xuan was dizzy. I hit the wall of the cave a few times and was dragged all the way, and now my whole body is in pain.

After gasping for breath, Shao Xuan still wanted to go back along the original road. The longer he stayed here, the more dangerous it would be.

Just as he was about to climb up the steep slope, Shao Xuan heard a whirring sound coming from a passage behind him, as if the wind was blowing, but with a rhythm.
