Chapter 237

This face seemed to be soaked in blood, and the skin was red, but the eyes were closed, and there seemed to be no threat.&1t;/p>

This is a human face. I continued to pull the roots around me. A woman's upper body gradually exposed, and her pounced forward became more obvious. She fell down without the roots.&1t;/p>

A normal person or corpse will not change color. I didn't dare to touch her body. I pulled a few strands of thorns around her neck, and then slowly put her on the ground.&1t;/p>

But when she was lying facing the ground, I found that there was a pipe-like thing behind her that still connected to the 'heart'.&1t;/p>

To be precise, it was the location of her back heart, and a tube was inserted into it. Of course, using a tube is just a metaphor. This tube is actually a vine as thick as a wrist.&1t;/p>

The vine connects the back of the female corpse, or to her heart, and the other end hides inside the huge living creature.&1t;/p>

This thing is strange, I decided not to move it for the time being, and first look for an exit around me. I groped along the rock wall, knocking on the rock from time to time, thinking that Gu Yu might be able to see my position through the vibration of the underground air.&1t;/p>

After walking around, it took me about an hour to find every place up and down the cave wall. There was no other exit. The passage dug by my predecessors was the only exit here to the outside world.&1t;/p>

If there is no other hidden exit, then the red female corpse must be the one who dug the hole. After she came in, she was trapped and died in this hole.&1t;/p>

Even the high-tech work of digging holes in the rock formation can be controlled, but she died here inexplicably. What she encountered must be not simple.&1t;/p>

I couldn't find the exit, so I had to go back to the living creature, look at the ground, my heart suddenly jumped, where is the female corpse on the ground?&1t;/p>

The tubular vine connecting the corpse was still hanging on the ground, but the corpse was gone. I just looked for an exit around and didn't pay attention to the movement here, but there was no one else in the cave, and the place was extremely quiet. If the corpse was moved, I should be able to hear it.&1t;/p>

I didn't believe it and continued to pull the roots of the living creature, thinking that it dragged the corpse back, and within a short while, one-third of the living creature under the roots would be exposed.&1t;/p>

But the result disappointed me. The moving thing was actually a stone, not a living thing at all. The reason why it moved was because something in the soil layer below was running upwards. She ran too fast, and I could almost only touch the heels and was dragged by her until she wanted to fly.&1t;/p>

Before entering the cave, she paused for a moment, taking care of my head, and did not directly carry me into it.&1t;/p>

The number of white worms gathered more and more, like a white whirlwind rushing out of the passage, chasing behind us, and was about to pounce in front of me.&1t;/p>

"md, they like to eat dead people." The woman cursed and changed positions suddenly, pushed me into the hole first, then kicked my ass, and shouted: "Climb quickly!"&1t;/p>

Of course I won't care about her at this critical moment. Although her attitude is not very good, the "dead people" she said may refer to me. She means that those white worms like to eat me!&1t;/p>

Although she was also a dead person in my opinion, she took the initiative to give up the best position to escape and blocked the white worm that was catching up with me. This move still touched me a little.&1t;/p>

The insects flew so fast that they didn't give me much time to think about it. I could only move my hands and feet desperately to climb to the other end of the hole.&1t;/p>

Back in the previous "stomach", there was nowhere to hide in this place. I went out of the cave and climbed directly on the roots on the rock wall and climbed towards the "esophagus".&1t;/p>

But the roots on the rock wall could not bear my weight. I fell down before I climbed too high. Seeing that the back of my head was about to hit the gravel on the ground, a palm suddenly appeared and dragged my back.&1t;/p>

"The road above is blocked, go down." The woman's voice rang out immediately.&1t;/p>

She pulled me to the hole that entered the ‘duodenum’ and threw me in the first place. I fell straight into the hole, fortunately it was a not particularly steep slope inside.&1t;/p>

I felt wet under my butt, and I didn't know what I was sitting on. Fortunately, this wet thing played a 'smooth' role, allowing me to slide to the bottom, otherwise this hole would only reach the height of my bent down, and I would definitely not be able to run away from those bugs when I bent down.&1t;/p>

Entering the winding "intestine", I immediately had a bad association. Should we be "released" in the end?&1t;/p>

Combined with the pungent stench in this passage, I felt even worse. I always felt like I was sitting on a pile of compost, the wet thing...&1t;/p>

Fortunately, there was a pool at the bottom of the curve. There was a strange smell in the pool, but it was definitely not a corpse or a shit smell. I fell into the water and my head floated up and took a breath, and was pressed back into the water by the woman who fell in later.&1t;/p>

Before entering the water, I only saw the overwhelming white insects rushing towards us like angry clouds. The water in the pool was cold and bone-bone. I closed my eyes and did not struggle.&1t;/p>

I don’t know if there was a new superpower buried in the soil. I held my breath and didn’t feel suffocating. The pores in my body opened up that special way of breathing.&1t;/p>

The woman, or female corpse, also remained still in the water. Seeing that I had no sign of struggle, I let go of my hand holding my shoulder.&1t;/p>

After soaking in the pool for half an hour, the woman pulled me and signaled me to float to the surface. The temperature of the groundwater was very low. Even if normal people were frozen, they would still be frozen to death. We both slashed our limbs and swam out of the water freely.&1t;/p>

The insect tide has receded. I tilted my neck and took a breath and looked at the woman next to me. Her face was the same as that of ordinary people, and her skin was even much whiter than that of ordinary people, and she had no bright red blood color at all.&1t;/p>

"Are you a human?" As soon as I said something, I felt that it was inaccurate, so I quickly changed my words: "Are you a living person?"&1t;/p>

"If you want to change the bag," she said while swimming to the shore.&1t;/p>

There is a crack on the stone wall next to the pool, which may be a flow channel for groundwater. This pool is formed because the groundwater source is broken or the river is diverted.&1t;/p>

I didn't care about anything else. I couldn't stop being happy when I saw the cracks were wide enough for people to get out, and I followed her and swam to the shore.&1t;/p>

&1t;/p>
