The scraping sound of the iron leaves was like wave after wave of water, constantly rushing towards the bamboo raft at our feet.
Although the bamboo raft was tied firmly, it could not hold up the saber-toothed viper fish that these hungry ghosts had entrusted to them.
In desperation, we had no choice but to pick up the engineering shovel and chop up the nearby fish.
As soon as I swung the shovel into the water, the engineer's shovel was bitten by a saber-toothed viperfish that looked like a mad dog.
I quickly raised my hand to shake off the two saber-toothed viperfish that were biting the engineer's shovel.
When I lowered my head, I couldn't help but sweat.
There were several rows of staggered teeth marks on the stainless steel blade of the shovel.
However, these are just a few saber-toothed viperfish that swam over first.
More fish are surging behind.
If we don’t take effective measures, our bamboo rafts will be destroyed by a large number of saber-toothed viperfish within tens of seconds.
Bite into pieces.
However, the bamboo raft is still more than ten meters away from the exit of the Mushroom Rock Cave.
It is now completely surrounded by sword-toothed vipers, making it impossible to paddle.
These last ten meters are as long and far away as hell.
I'm afraid we will never reach it.
The fat man shouted anxiously: "This time we are really going to finish playing.
I don't want to be fucking fish food.
Old Hu, do you still have bullets in your pistol?
Give me a shot in the heart.
I would rather be shot."
It's better to die than to be eaten alive by this piranha."
I was a little numb at this time, so I gritted my teeth and said to the fat man: "Okay, that's it.
I'll shoot you to death first, and then I'll shoot myself.
We must not fall into the hands of the enemy alive."
At this critical moment where life and death depended on a thread, Shiry Yang suddenly said to us calmly: "Look at how hopeless you two guys are.
You are usually eloquent, vicious, and tyrannical.
There is nothing like it in the world."
Things that can be taken seriously by you.
If you haven't passed Zhelong Mountain yet and you want to commit suicide when you encounter such a dilemma, let's see how you can talk to the world after you go back.
Now you all listen to my command."
After saying that, Shirey Yang raised his pistol, pointed it at the dense area of saber-toothed viperfish in the water, and fired several shots.
The river water was instantly dyed red with fish blood.
When the saber-toothed viperfish around him saw the blood, they pounced on them regardless of whether they were the same kind or what.
By biting the injured sabertooth viperfish, the danger of the bamboo raft being about to be bitten into pieces was slightly alleviated.
Shiry Yang didn't bother to put the pistol back, he let go and let the Type 64 fall into the water.
At this time, he had already thrown the flying tiger claw at the white cloud mushroom rock at the entrance of the cave.
The steel rope was wrapped around the mushroom rock three times, and the claws were tightly clasped on the rock.
Shiry Yang asked Fatty and I to pull the steel cable of the Flying Tiger Claw and quickly pull the bamboo raft to the shore at the entrance of the cave.
Under the pull of the three people, the speed of the bamboo raft was several times faster than that of the engineer shovel.
When he was still five or six meters away, the fat man began to throw the geological hiking bag filled with equipment and the two insect catching nets one by one to the shore.
Each bag weighs forty or fifty kilograms.
If one bamboo raft is reduced, it will be lighter and the speed will become faster and faster.
At this time, there was a loud scraping sound of iron leaves, and a large group of saber-toothed vipers were already swarming in like maggots attached to the bones.
We no longer dared to stay on the bamboo raft, and immediately jumped onto the mushroom rock on the shore, and as soon as we landed , the rope binding the bamboo raft behind him broke, and the entire bamboo raft fell apart, floating in the water one by one, and the damaged bright searchlight also sank.
The sword-toothed viper fish had gnawed away the water wasps attached to the bamboo, but was still wandering nearby and refused to leave.

I looked at the swarm of fish rolling in the water and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
It finally didn't turn into fish food. , otherwise he would have died in this cave before seeing King Xian’s tomb.
The fat man next to me suddenly shouted: "Oh, no, my backpack fell into the river."
I took a look and was surprised.
I just threw all three big backpacks on the shore.
Before I could drag them up, the first backpack that was thrown over fell to the water's edge because of the distance.
It was so heavy that the gravel on the shore could not support it and fell into the river.
There is nowhere to stand there.
If you want to retrieve the backpack, you must go into the water.
Seeing that the big backpack will be washed away by the current, a large group of sabertooth viperfish in the river are waiting nearby.
When we set off, we classified all the equipment and equipment.
This backpack contains a propane spray bottle, which can be used with a lighter to fire three or two flames.
Since it is not easy to buy, we only got this bottle and prepared to pour it.
Only equip it when fighting, just in case something unexpected happens.
Moreover, there are six kettle-sized refillable oxygen bottles in the bag, as well as a ruler diving goggles and a respirator.
These are all indispensable underwater equipment for the Xianwangdou built in the lake.
There are many devices filled with various gases, so they haven't sunk to the bottom yet.
If this backpack is lost, we can withdraw our troops with our tail between our legs and return home as soon as possible.
Seeing this scene, Shiry Yang was also very anxious and wanted to use the flying tiger claw to hook the backpack back, but the flying tiger claw was still tightly wrapped around the mushroom rock and could not be freed for a while.
I knew that if there was any further delay, the equipment would be washed away by the water.
I only had the engineer shovel in my hand.
When I saw a crack on the back slope of the rock on the shore, I used the engineer shovel as a rock wedge without much thought and shoveled the entire shovel.
The blade was raised up and inserted into the rock crevice.
Then, with another horizontal force, the engineer's shovel got stuck in the crack of the rock.
He stretched out his hand and found that it was very solid.
He hung his whole body on the river and grabbed the triangular handle of the engineer's shovel with one hand. , the other hand reached into the water to grab the backpack that happened to float over from above.
The backpack was actually caught in my hand, and I was relieved.
Unexpectedly, a saber-toothed viperfish suddenly jumped out of the water, opened its saw-toothed knife-like mouth, and hit the back of my hand hard in mid-air.
One mouthful.
A piece of flesh on the back of my hand was immediately torn off, and the pain made me tremble all over.
I almost fell into the river.
Although I was in pain, I didn't let go of the backpack.
Several more sword-toothed viperfish jumped out of the water and tried to bite me, using the method of a carp leaping over a dragon's gate.
My body was suspended in the air, and because the backpack was too heavy, I couldn't dodge at all.
Thanks to the fat man and Shirey Yang who pulled me back from behind, I was lucky enough not to be torn apart by the fish’s teeth.
I wiped the cold sweat from my forehead and looked at the injury on my left hand.
Fortunately, it was not serious.
Only a piece of flesh was bitten off.
Although the bleeding continued, no muscles or bones were injured after all.
Shiry Yang hurriedly took out the medicine and bandaged me: "You are too reckless.
Life is more important than equipment.
If the equipment is gone, the worst case scenario is to let Muchen Beads stay in the Tomb of King Xian for a few more days.
Losing lives is not a child's play."
I said to Shiry Yang and Fatty: "This little injury is nothing.
If I don't show Hu's skills today, then the American advisory group will say that we are incompetent again, right?"

The fat man smiled and said: "Old Hu, what are you doing these two times?
You failed to steal the chicken but lost a handful of rice and let the fish take a big bite.
Our generals will stay behind.
When we get to the tomb of King Xian later, you will all Look at Fatty’s skills and open your eyes to what it means to have mountains beyond the mountains.”
Shiry Yang first used Yunnan Baiyao to stop the bleeding on the back of my hand, then applied a layer of hemostatic glue on the outside, and then wrapped the wound with waterproof tape to prevent water from getting infected and causing inflammation.
Finally, he gave me an injection of penicillin. .
I waved my hands quickly: "No, no, I'm not in the line of fire due to minor injuries, and I'm also a little dizzy from the injection.
We didn't bring much of this antibiotic to begin with, so we'd better keep it for now."
Shiry Yang couldn't help but ask the fat man to push me to the ground and give me a forcible injection.
After measuring the direction, I saw that the riverside was barely passable, so I put my equipment on my back and prepared to drive No. 11 and walk out along this underground canal.
We walked along the river and saw that the waterway dug for the construction of the king's tomb was of extraordinary scale.
I originally thought that King Xian was a grass-headed emperor who separated from the ancient Dian Kingdom, and that his tomb would not be too large.
However, judging from the canal passing through the mountain, this King Xian, who was good at voodoo and bad luck, He is really powerful and powerful, and his power cannot be small.
The scale of the king's tomb built in the "water dragon halo" should be far beyond our imagination.
Walking deeper and deeper into the dark cave, after walking for nearly an hour, a section of the river suddenly collapsed.
The gravel slid into the water when stepped on, making it impossible to stand.
It seemed that this road could not be continued. .
We had to find another cave and pass through it.
Not long after walking, we heard the rumbling of water on the other side of the mountain wall.
However, we clearly heard the sound of water flowing, but there was no way around it.
So we raised our wolf eyes and looked around for a way.
This place was The natural lava landform in the mountain has many large and small holes on the large rocks.
After finally finding a stone hole that could accommodate one person, I dragged my backpack behind me with a climbing rope, drilled through in order, and finally saw a huge waterfall in the mountain.
The position where we emerged from the grotto was just below the waterfall.
There was another stream of water flowing into the river under the waterfall from the opposite side.
Looking along the direction of the water flow, there was some light in the distance, as if the exit was over there.
Shiry Yang said to me: "This water system that flows into the waterfall is probably a waterway discovered by local people during the quarrying process.
Looking at the riverbed landforms nearby, it will not be more than a few decades.
Otherwise, if there is this waterway, it will be repaired There is no need to build a canal in Zhelong Mountain when the king’s tomb was built.”
I said to Shiry Yang: "This type of landform is formed by being washed away by water all year round.
When I was an engineering soldier, I knew something about it.
In a place like this, the entire bottom of the mountain has long been washed into a sieve by countless tributaries of the Lancang River.
In some places, the water depth is even more than hundreds of meters.
It is common for the river to change its course in the cave.
Anyway, it flows lower and lower, knocking down a piece of rock, and an extra tributary emerges.
If this continues, this place will become a river.
Zhelong Mountain will collapse sooner or later.”
The three of them were talking and walking, looking for the bright place.
Halfway through, they saw some caves on the mountain wall high up.
They were arranged in a quite orderly manner, and they looked like they were dug manually.
There were obvious rock formations at the bottom of the mountain wall.
On the stairs, you can see rotten human bones from time to time on the ground, as well as some weapons and armor, all of which are in a state of decay.
The scene here is very consistent with the previous description of the proprietress in Caiyun Inn.
It should be that some rioters used this as a stronghold to fight against the government troops.
Since the items are difficult to preserve in a humid environment, almost all of them are in a state of decay, and it is not easy to identify which dynasty or generation they are from.

Looking at the degree of decay of the bones and the shape of the weapons and armor, we can only judge that they may be from the Qing Dynasty. initial period.
When we go into the mountains to fight, we always walk.
We don’t mind the trek, and we can move freely.
Although we abandoned the boat at the foot of Zhelong Mountain and walked, each of us was carrying a lot of heavy equipment, we didn’t feel it was difficult.
However, the journey was full of dangers. , all wanted to get out of the cave as soon as possible, so they no longer paid attention to those ruins and hurried on.
Follow the water to the end, and the river is still flowing forward, but it flows into the ground.
This cave is lower than the ground level outside the mountain, so the big river in the mountain cannot be seen from the outside.
We climbed up another section of the rocky slope, and our eyes lit up.
We finally successfully crossed Zhelong Mountain. .
When I came outside, I looked back and saw that I was under the steep cliffs of Zhelong Mountain.
At the highest point above my head, there were thick clouds.
Looking ahead, there are mountains all around, and the center is getting lower and lower.
They are all large expanses of virgin forest.
They are vast and vast, with many unnamed exotic flowers and trees.
There are also countless ravines, deep valleys, dangerous streams and pools scattered among them. .
In some deep valleys, you can clearly see the grass and flowers in them under the sun.
However, the more you look at it, the more unfathomable it becomes.
The depth is dizzying, while in some places it is covered in clouds and fog, making it hazy and mysterious. view.
I took out the human skin map and confirmed the path into Worm Valley.
The fat man raised his telescope to look at the jungle below.
As he watched, he suddenly grabbed my arm and put the telescope into my hand: "Don't look at the map.
Look at the many big golden butterflies over there.
That valley must be there."
There
