Although I didn't know what the strange face appeared on the stone statue was, but when they saw it escape, everyone hurriedly raised their guns to aim. However, the thing was very fast and the light of the flashlight could not catch up with it. So they couldn't aim at it at all. However, Wen Mo seemed to be able to grasp its position, and swung two steel needles in a row, but they all failed.

The strange face that suddenly appeared on the stone statue disappeared into the air. When I looked at the stone man again, everything returned to normal.

I was about to ask Wen Mo what it was, but Wen Mo said, "Be careful of the smell, stay away from here!"

After hearing what he said, I quickly covered my mouth and nose and retreated. We retreated to the back of the fire, and Wen Mo signaled everyone to stop, "It's OK here. The temperature of the flames and the floating charcoal ash can withstand that smell."

Lanxiao asked curiously: "Boss, what happened just now?"

Wen Mo replied: "That thing is called the laughing ghost bat, which is a species of bats that can only be seen in extremely deep dark caves. They are large in size, about the size of a human face. They have patterns similar to smiley faces on their wings. They feed on carrion, but they like to suck blood and are real vampire bats."

Yuan An said on the side: "I have heard of this kind of thing, and people thought they had long been extinct in ancient times, but they didn't expect there to be any here."

Glasses looked nervously and asked, "Master An, can they really suck people's blood?"

Yuan An nodded, "It's not just human blood, but the blood of all warm-blooded animals is quite attractive to them. This is probably related to their living environment."

Yuanxiao snorted, "If I had known this was such a thing, I should have come forward and shot it twice! It was just a big swallow tiger. No matter how hard it could suck blood, I could slap it to death with a slap!"

Wen Mo shook his head, "It's not that easy. This smiling ghost bat can release a gas that can paralyze other animals. You were lucky just now, they were a little farther away, and the time was very short. If you had a longer stalemate, you would have been almost knocked down!"

After hearing Wen Mo's words, Yuanxiao was stunned and frowned, "You haven't said it yet. I'm really dizzy and full of energy!" After being reminded by Yuanxiao, I immediately felt a little uncomfortable. This kind of thing is indeed very powerful! If I really get hit and have no support, then the situation is really dangerous!

Yuanxiao leaned limply on the equipment bag and said, "Fortunately you will come quickly, otherwise we will have been sucked into adults now!"

Wen Mo shook his head, "This is not the case. The laughing ghost bat just now couldn't suck the blood of you two adults. However, because it eats rotten meat all year round, a large number of viruses and bacteria will be parasitized in its mouth and saliva. The laughing ghost bat is born with antibodies, but humans cannot do it. Once bitten by them, it will cause serious infections, especially in such places, which are not available for effective treatment. This is the most deadly thing!"

Wen Mo said, and I were sweating coldly. Seeing our two situations, the second uncle took two bottles of water and handed them to us. "Fortunately, we found the seeping groundwater. Drink more and metabolize the toxins in our bodies as soon as possible. You don't absorb much, and you will be fine after urinating for a while."

I nodded, but ended up drinking the kettle and asked my second uncle, "Where did you go just now? Did you go into the cave?"

Uncle Er shook his head, "No, but the diameter of this cave is much larger than we imagined. We just turned around along the extension of the huge cave entrance of the cave, and at the same time, we found the water flow from the mountain on the stone wall on one side. Fortunately, it was not too far away, so I didn't expect this situation to happen. Didn't you arrange for someone to be alert? Didn't you notice this smiling ghost bat just appeared?"

When I talked about this, I felt helpless, "The person who was guarding was Lantern Festival. He slept more soundly than me at that time!"

The second uncle shook his head with a wry smile, "Although this Lantern Festival is very loyal, sometimes it is really unreliable!"

After that, we took a break here, and soon I felt that my discomfort had been reduced a lot. After discussing with my second uncle, Yuan An said, "Everyone is ready to go. After entering the cave later, you may encounter a smiley ghost bat. Be careful!"

Most of the creatures like bats live in groups, so if they really live under this cave, it would be a big threat to us. This time we did not come in with gas masks, which was indeed a big mistake.

I stood up with my equipment on my back. The dizziness just now basically disappeared. It seemed that the gas released by the smiling ghost bat was not lasting for a long time, but it was enough for them to bite a few bites.

We walked around the altars and stone statues and walked down the stone steps hovering on the inner wall of the cave.

I noticed that there were many round holes on the outside of these stone steps. Obviously, there were protective measures such as railings. From the wreckage left inside, it can be seen that these railings were probably made of wooden. However, after thousands of years, these wooden railings have long since broken and brittled, disappeared, and may have fallen below.

However, this caused us trouble. Due to the existence of wooden railings, the stone steps here were not designed wide when they were built, and they were even narrower than the stone steps on the stone wall just now. This time I could only stick to one side of the stone wall. The feeling of dizziness and fear mixed together came again, and I hated this feeling!

As I walked, the second uncle in front turned his head and told me: "Be careful, don't just stare at your feet. The stone steps here are hovering downwards, always rotating in one direction, and you will feel dizzy and lose your center of gravity."

I nodded, then raised my head and looked ahead to relieve the dizziness.

However, there is another better aspect here, that is, when we walked about a circle on the hovering stone steps, we suddenly saw a more spacious platform appearing in front of us. In this way, we can relieve our nervous nerves on it. This is really a super humanized design for us.

As soon as I stood on the platform, I immediately sat on the ground and took a deep breath. When my emotions calmed down, I stood up and looked around and found that standing on this platform was also terrifying, because except for one side of the platform connected to the stone wall, the rest of the platform was suspended in the air. My mind unconsciously made up for the scene where the platform suddenly broke and fell into the darkness. I doubted whether I had persecution paranoia.

I shook my head hard and forced myself not to think randomly, but I still stood close to the stone wall.

At this time, Uncle Er and his friends found you a few large characters above the stone wall. Although they were old and the characters looked a little weird, they revealed a simple and solemn atmosphere.

Lanxiao illuminated the flashlight upwards, then asked, "What are these words?"

After the second uncle communicated with Yuan An, he actually said that they didn’t know each other. Yuanxiao nodded, “I didn’t expect that even you didn’t know each other. It seems that this Nether Clan culture has indeed been buried by history.”

The sudden lyrics of Lantern Festival made me uncomfortable. I looked around and suddenly found that Wen Mo was standing at the connection between the platform and the stone steps below. I felt aroused in my heart, so I walked over and asked softly, "Hey, boss, have you found anything?"

Wen Mo said lightly, "The real meaning here is probably related to what is on the stone wall below."

"What's on the stone wall?" I frowned and looked down carefully. Even under the light of the flashlight, I still couldn't see anything. I asked Wenmo: "What's on the stone wall? Why didn't I find it?"

Wen Mo reached out and took out a cold firework from his bag. After it was lit, he threw it down along the stone steps. The cold fireworks jumped on the stone steps and rolled down the arc of the cave wall, illuminating one area after another.

At first I didn't find anything, but a few seconds later, I suddenly found things inlaid inverted triangle shapes on the stone wall next to the stone steps, but at this time I still didn't see what it was. But soon I found that these things inverted triangle shapes actually seemed to be corpses. The strangest thing is that the reason they took the shape of inverted triangles was because they were not sitting cross-legged in the pit on the stone wall, but were embedded in the stone wall with their heads facing down.

Not only me, but everyone around him saw this incredible scene. Everyone widened their eyes and showed an incredible expression.

Yuanxiao murmured to himself: "I'll go, everyone is buried here with big heads. Is this tm the cemetery of the ancient acrobatic troupe?!"

I was confused and turned to look at my second uncle, always thinking that maybe he knew the reason.

When the second uncle saw me looking at him, he spoke to me, "Do you still remember the last mural in the temple?"

As soon as I recalled it, I was immediately shocked. The character in the center of the mural I still remember was supported by many sitting people. Could it be that these people are what they want to express in the mural? But it is not right. Why do these people have to face their heads down? Will they... I suddenly woke up halfway through the thought and secretly called myself a fool. This place is clearly in the context of mutual transformation between heaven and earth! So the sky is below.
