As soon as you step into the cave, the stones under your feet make a crunching sound as they roll, a sound that sends chills down your spine.
Yang Rui walked in front of me, holding a gleaming kitchen knife in his hand, while I followed behind him, also gripping a gun tightly.
To be honest, I was a little nervous, since no one knew what was in the cave.
The cave was quiet, with only the sound of my and Yang Rui's breathing. The cave was very long, and the further we went in, the wider the entrance became, and the temperature started to rise.
Yang Rui walked in front, but after a few more steps, he couldn't take it anymore. He stopped and leaned against the rock wall, panting heavily.
"How can it be so hot in here? Is the sun inside?"
I laughed and shook my head: "How could that be? The sun is clearly hanging outside. You should hurry up and go. They're still waiting outside, and they're not sure what to do. If the two of us waste time here, it will only make them more worried!"
Yang Rui took another deep breath after hearing this, and then continued walking forward.
After walking for a while, I also started to feel unbearable. I felt my whole body becoming hot, and even the rock arm I was leaning against started to feel hot to the touch.
I'm starting to wonder, could there really be a sun hanging inside?
Is it because we're getting closer and closer to the sun that the temperature is getting higher and higher?
"No, brothers from all over the world, I really can't go any further, it's too hot up ahead..."
“But we’re already here. If you go back now, how are you going to tell them that this glowing hole is just something like a thermal energy source that keeps generating heat? And if someone asks you what’s inside, how are you going to answer? Alright, you go behind me, I’ll go ahead.”
As I spoke, I walked past Yang Rui and took the lead. But after walking a short distance, I came across a small bend in the cave.
After turning the corner, I discovered that the scene ahead was entirely red.
The ground was still bubbling and bubbling, and the first thing that came to my mind was hot pot.
I've been here for so long and haven't even had hot pot yet. I really miss it.
However, Yang Rui, who was behind him, had also come over. After taking a look, his eyes widened and his face was full of doubt.
"Is this... is this lava?"
Hearing Yang Rui say that, I quickly came to my senses and took a closer look. At this moment, what was bubbling up looked just like lava.
But isn't it strange that such a hollow mountain contains magma?
Normal magma should be generated by volcanic eruptions, so could there actually be an active volcano inside this mountain?
Thinking about it this way, I suddenly felt nervous. If that were really the case, then Yang Rui and I would be standing on the edge of death right now.
If this volcano suddenly erupts in a bad mood, Yang Rui and I would probably be obliterated in less than a second...
I quickly tugged at Yang Rui: "Come on, we can't stay here any longer, let's get out of here first."
Yang Rui was stunned. He stared blankly at the bubbling lava, his eyes filled with terror.
"Four, four seas, look, look, what's that?"
When I heard Yang Rui say that, I looked in the direction he was pointing and saw that there seemed to be something standing in the lava.
The thing was writhing and looked like a person's shadow, but even at such a distance, Yang Rui and I couldn't withstand the intense heat of the magma.
I really can't imagine what kind of person could dance in lava.
Just as I was wondering what it was, I suddenly heard Yang Rui scream, then quickly turn around and run away.
The instant he ran out, the thing that had been writhing in the very center of the lava suddenly shot towards me like an arrow released from a bow.
I almost reflexively turned to the side, and that thing had already pounced out with Yang Rui.
Yang Ruihao's shouts echoed throughout the cave, and I couldn't help but feel scared. When I turned my head to look at the lava again, I discovered that many of the same things from before had somehow risen up from the lava.
I dared not make any move because I didn't know what these things relied on for positioning.
However, recalling the noise Yang Rui made earlier, it seems these things are capable of hearing sounds, so I can't make any noise right now, otherwise I might die here.
I tried to keep my breathing as faint as possible, standing still without daring to move, while those things remained in the lava, constantly wriggling their bodies, each one looking more like a strange insect.
Not long after, I suddenly heard a series of gunshots outside the cave. The insects that were wriggling stiffened for a moment, and then, just like the red thing that had flown out at the beginning, they ran out as well.
Before long, the gunfire outside intensified, clearly indicating that a battle had broken out!
This time, besides Wang Ping having a gun, those foreigners also had guns. Hearing the intense noise outside, I couldn't help but feel anxious. Could something terrible have happened outside?
More of those things kept rushing out behind me, but I knew I absolutely couldn't stay here any longer. Otherwise, once they realized I wasn't one of them, they would definitely attack me.
And at that time, my situation will only be worse than those people outside!
I gritted my teeth, looked around, picked up a rock from the ground, and smashed it against the inner rock wall that was bubbling with lava.
The sound was very loud, and soon the stone had fallen into the lava. The still surging things rushed towards the place where the sound had come from again like madmen.
Taking advantage of the brief moment, I barely dared to breathe and ran straight outside.
When I ran outside, I found Bai Wei and the others looking at the things that were moving around in front of them with expressions of great alarm.
My running out startled those things, and they turned around and looked at me again.
When I finally saw these things clearly in the sunlight, I felt my hair stand on end and I couldn't calm down at all!
