Chapter 1238: Survival in danger
There are still many places on the earth that have not been explored before, and there are many things that humans do not know. The Amazon primeval forest is limited in human knowledge, and it is normal for some special creatures to appear in such a special and hidden underground space in the Amazon jungle.
Xu Shanshan still doesn't know what that creature is, how big it is, or whether it is very fierce, but judging from the sound of footsteps, it must be a large creature, and its size will definitely not be smaller than that of a cow, and may even weigh one ton.
Even if Xu Shanshan encounters such a creature on land, she must avoid it, let alone in a underground place. However, Xu Shanshan still dares not move around at this time because she does not know the terrain here. If there are other dangers here, if you accidentally enter another more dangerous place, it will be difficult to deal with it.
Xu Shanshan held her breath and stood there motionless, hoping that the other party would not discover her.
But she soon knew that it was useless to do so. The monster was still walking straight towards her position, and the footsteps had become a little anxious. In this dark underground, vision had no effect at all. The monster could definitely determine her position by either smell or other means.
Xu Shanshan has innate true energy and extremely powerful ear power. Now, through sound, she can also tell how far that thing is from her. However, compared with this creature who lives underground for countless generations, Xu Shanshan is obviously not as good as that.
Knowing that she couldn't dodge, Xu Shanshan immediately put a slight rush on her chest. Based on her voice's judgment, she immediately pulled the trigger and shot two shots at the monster. Although she collected a lot of bullets, Xu Shanshan did not dare to waste it. She fired, just trying to scare the monster away, but she didn't think about killing it directly.
The fire at the muzzle flashed, and in this quiet space, the gunshots seemed even louder. The monster opposite suddenly snorted, and then the footsteps became chaotic, and that direction was obviously in the opposite direction. In other words, Xu Shanshan's two shots scared the monster away.
This made Xu Shanshan feel relieved. It would be much easier to scare the other party than to kill the other party.
The monster's footsteps were getting farther and farther away, and finally there was a loud sound of water. It was probably the monster who jumped into the water. In other words, there was still a river in this cave, and the monster lived in that river.
But here is dangerous everywhere, and Xu Shanshan also knows that she must not stay here for a long time. Now she still needs to think of a way to see if she has the chance to leave this ghost place.
Xu Shanshan took out the flashlight and began to find a way out. There were gems scattered on many places on the ground, but Xu Shanshan was not interested at all. She saw one direction and walked forward.
Maybe it was because the flashlight made the creatures here very scared. Anyway, Xu Shanshan walked far forward and was not attacked by a single creature. However, under the rocks in front, a few disgusting beetles popped out from time to time, and then they all ran away in panic.
The creatures here basically have no eyes, but it does not mean that they have no sense of light at all. Their skin or other organs also respond to light. Xu Shanshan's flashlight's electric light is too strong for them, and they can't stand it at all, so they immediately flee.
After walking like this for five or six minutes, Xu Shanshan finally arrived at the edge of the cave, which made Xu Shanshan very happy. She could find a way out along the cave wall, or climb up, and maybe find a way out. There is another point: in a relatively high place, it would also make her less likely to be attacked.
But looking at the cave wall, Xu Shanshan took a breath of air. The cave wall was covered with water and moss, which was extremely smooth. Moreover, the cave wall was at a negative angle. It would be too difficult to climb up.
Xu Shanshan could only walk along the cave wall. After walking for about twenty minutes, she stopped. An underground river blocked its way. The water surface was very calm, with almost no sound of running water. She picked up a stone and threw it into the water, making a dull sound. Obviously the water was very deep.
This should be the river that the monster jumped into just now. Xu Shanshan didn't dare to get too close to the river. On land, she could easily deal with that monster, but in the water, that was the world of that kind of monster. And who knows how many monsters there are here? If there are many, she would probably be torn to pieces when she got off the river.
Xu Shanshan walked back along the cave wall. This time she walked for about an hour before she arrived at the river again, which shows how big the space here is.
The cave walls are all smooth and cannot be climbed at all, and there are no other cave entrances here.
The only place where you can go out should be that river, but now Xu Shanshan obviously cannot escape from there.
This made Xu Shanshan quite annoyed. Could it be that she would be trapped here all the time? Although there is water and food shortage, the monsters and insects are also hungry when they are in a hurry. It seems that there is no problem to survive here, but if you live alone here for a lifetime, it would be better to die.
Xu Shanshan has been in the hole for more than two hours and is wet. The air humidity here is too high and it is really uncomfortable. However, there is nothing to make a fire here, otherwise the lighter would be able to use it.
Moreover, this moisture also caused Xu Shanshan's body temperature to drop. If Xu Shanshan had not had innate true energy, then this moisture alone would have made her unable to bear it.
After finding the food, Xu Shanshan ate a little to replenish her energy. Although she has no appetite at all, she must eat it. Without sufficient physical strength, she cannot face the next danger.
Because he wanted to save electricity, Xu Shanshan turned off the flashlight, but after a while, the bugs crawled towards her.
Xu Shanshan immediately turned on the flashlight, and the insects immediately retreated.
But this is OK once or twice. After using it a few times, the insects seemed to know that this kind of light was not dangerous to them, and they ignored the light of Xu Shanshan's flashlight and flocked to her.
Xu Shanshan was shocked and quickly began to pick up stones to attack the insects. Her hidden weapon skills were also carefully guided by Li Yifei, so there must be no problem with this level. Each stone can kill a bug, but there are too many such insects, which are simply unbearable to kill. Moreover, the gravel in the same place was thrown away by her in a short while, and she didn't know how many gems were used by her as weapons to kill insects.
Xu Shanshan could only jump to another place quickly, kicked away a few bugs there, and picked up stones and hit the bugs again.
At this time, she didn't dare to use a gun at all, which was used to deal with that big monster.
For half an hour, Xu Shanshan kept fighting these insects, and she didn't know how many insects she killed, but finally let the insects retreat temporarily.
But before she could breathe much time, the big monster appeared again, and this time it was not one end, but four appeared together.
Xu Shanshan held a flashlight and finally saw the appearance of this monster. This monster looked like a hippo, with short legs, huge mouth, and huge body. However, their mouths were not huge fangs like hippos, but crocodile teeth. Under the flashlight, it was quite scary. If he was bitten, Xu Shanshan could be sure that he would tear his body apart.
Xu Shanshan pulled the trigger when the monster was more than 20 meters away from her. With one shot, the four monsters were shot at least twice.
The four monsters groaned twice and turned around and ran backwards, but Xu Shanshan was secretly frightened because the four monsters were still running very fast, and none of them could not run. In other words, although they were shot, the bullet could only make them hurt and not cause much damage to them.
Next, Xu Shanshan was fighting against that kind of insect and that kind of monster. She didn't know how many insects had killed, but none of the monsters were killed by her. Instead, the impact of those monsters became more and more fierce, and even completely ignored Xu Shanshan's gun. If it weren't for Xu Shanshan's flexibility, they would have been unable to catch them many times, Xu Shanshan would have been caught by them and swallowed alive.
But even so, it was quite exhausting. Xu Shanshan had almost no time to stop and didn't know how long she had been fighting these monsters and bugs.
Finally, Xu Shanshan got a temporary stop. She immediately started eating and replenishing her energy. Thinking of the current situation, she couldn't help but think of Li Yifei. If Li Yifei was here, there would definitely be a way. My brother-in-law is omnipotent, and he can solve the problem no matter how dangerous the place is.
When she thought of Li Yifei, Xu Shanshan suddenly thought of a way to convey information to the outside world. Even if she was very tired, she still needed to do this. She also hoped that Xu Yingying would not think about it in a mess, and also hoped that Xu Yingying would not not tell Li Yifei about this.
