After the salt mine, this was the second bottomless cave he had found today.
Could it be that this hole also leads to the underground world?
Xu Xin looked into the cave. Despite having the night vision ability of the red berries, he still couldn't see the bottom. It was still pitch black below.
He bent down and grabbed a handful of soil at the entrance of the cave.
[Contaminated Soil: Soil infected by an unknown force, useless to survivors.]
Sure enough, it’s this kind of soil again!
Is this hole already there?
Thinking of the newly appeared cave in the salt mine, Xu Xin seemed to understand something.
Perhaps, these burrows, which may be connected to the underground world, are related to their second stage of survival.
In the second stage, they will probably start to truly come into contact with the underground world!
Xu Xin took one last look at the deep cave in the lake, then turned around and swam back to the lakeside.
He didn't dare jump in like Chang Yin and the others. Who knew how deep the cave was? Chang Yin and his family were made of stone, insensitive to water pressure, so they could jump in, but he couldn't.
At the lakeside, the three beasts were still waiting. Coco poked her head out from a rock beside the lake, looking anxiously at the still surface of the water, which had remained motionless for over ten minutes.
After seeing Xu Xin swimming upstream, it finally breathed a sigh of relief and called out, indicating to Xu Xin that it was over there.
Xu Xin looked in the direction of the sound and found that the three beasts were no longer in their original position. They were now on the other side of the lake, and Silver King and Mimi were digging something on the ground with their claws.
What happened? Why did he go over there?
Xu Xin swam over and walked out of the lake.
My body is wet, but fortunately my scales don't absorb water. It's almost noon now, the sun is shining, the weather is hot, and the air is not humid. The water on my body will dry in a few minutes.
Walking to Silver King and Mimi, Xu Xin found that they were still digging.
"What's wrong? Is there anything down there?" he asked.
"Oh, oh, oh!" Coco waved her little paws at him, gesturing something.
"A small knife? ...an altar knife?" Xu Xin's eyes lit up. "Did you find it?"
"Hmm!" Coco nodded.
Xu Xin reached out and rubbed Keke's little head: "Well done!"
"Hmm!" Keke puffed out her little chest, then climbed up Xu Xin's arm and onto his shoulder.
At this time, Silver King and Mimi had already dug half of the altar knife. The tip of the knife was inserted into the ground downwards, and it looked like it was thrown in directly. With Chang Yin's strength, it was not impossible.
Pulling out the altar knife, Xu Xin glanced at the bottom of the lake with some concern.
I don't know what's going on with them. Let's wait and see in the evening. Maybe something will really change at the altar.
Riding on the Silver King, Xu Xin first came to the altar and put the altar knife back to its original place to avoid attracting more monsters.
There was nothing left to explore around, so he started walking back.
Return along the same route.
When passing by the salt mine, he subconsciously looked towards it.
It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it, but once he did, he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Stop! Silver King, let's go to that mine!"
"Ouch!" The Silver King turned around and arrived at the edge of the mine in a few seconds.
The entrance of the cave, which was originally blocked by Xu Xin with large rocks, was opened for some reason!
The rocks that blocked the cave entrance had disappeared at this time, and he did not find them near the cave entrance.
Looking into the mine, everything was still so normal, it looked like just an ordinary mine.
But it was this ordinariness that allowed Xu Xin to discover the clue.
The ground is so clean.
Where did those broken vines, the crossbow arrows he shot into them, and the stones and salt mine debris on the ground go?
This mine can not only repair itself, but also clean itself.
Could it be that something came out from inside, cleaned up the mine, and removed the rocks that were blocking the mine?
Xu Xin thought of something and his expression suddenly changed. While observing the hill where the salt mine was located, he stepped back. Slowly, the overall appearance of the hill appeared in front of Xu Xin.
“I…fuck…”
Xu Xin's face changed drastically and his whole body turned cold.
If he didn't think in a certain direction, he wouldn't be able to see it. This association suddenly made a chill rise from his heart.
If you think of this hill as a huge head, then this mine is its open mouth!
Above the cave, there is a ridge-like protrusion, like a person's nose bridge.
Gu Chen
Continuing to look upwards, the two concave pits on the hill happened to be located at the position of the eyes, just like eye sockets!
Above each pit, there is a tree growing crookedly on the slope. From this angle, it looks like two upturned eyebrows above the eye sockets!
The more I look at it, the more it resembles it. The more I think about it, the more it resembles it.
He wanted to convince himself that it was just a coincidence, but considering what had happened before, the mine cave had healed automatically, things inside and outside the mine cave had magically disappeared, and the mine cave was not even protected by the tree house...
The possibility of coincidence is too small.
That deep pit inside, could it be the monster's esophagus? Perhaps it ate the rocks and things in its mouth, which is why the mine is so clean inside and out!
What is this? A mountain giant? This is too magical...
Xu Xin took a deep breath and calmed down a little.
