Chapter 104 Chapter 14 Cave Spiders

"Who could it be?" I wondered in my heart, judging from the current situation, besides the three of us, Lin Yue and the others entered the cave, and maybe the old curator Zha and the girl Chen Jing were counted. .Because the echo effect of the cave is so good, I can't tell apart the location of the sound, but I can still tell the characteristics of the sound with ease.The rough and intermittent panting sound, the feeling of being out of breath, sounds like the sound of an elderly person, or someone who was injured, could it be the old curator?If it is really him, it would be great to dare to be sympathetic, and we don't have to suffer further.The panting sound was sometimes clear and sometimes indistinct. It seemed that the person was too tired or injured.Since it was confirmed that it was a human being who made the sound, and there were three of us here, we would not encounter much danger anyway, so I took the opportunity to walk forward quickly and took the opportunity to show off my bravery.Of course, the two people behind probably also guessed my cleverness, so they didn't rush to follow.

This road does not branch everywhere like the above, and there is always only one road extending forward.However, there will be an obvious level drop every 100 meters, and we all have to jump down.Xinhong and Aunt Yu move slowly, do they really want to sing a one-man show for me alone, and let me continue to show off to the end?However, I really don't understand why the more mysterious and dangerous things are hidden deep underground?The "divine water" just now was extremely powerful. Although it receded instantly, there was still a lot of water on the ground in the cave.Our shoes were already soaked, but now, our feet are getting colder and colder as we walk.Finally, there is another village, and a hall-like space appears at a lower corner.The stalactites in the cave hall were almost completely broken. I really don't understand what these people want to do with so many stalactites.

"Go slowly, the hurdles here are not small, and..." Aunt Yu limp on the ground before she finished speaking. I looked back and saw that Xinhong was leaning against the stone wall as if he was a little dizzy.People say that diseases are contagious.I have always believed.Unexpectedly, just as soon as the two of them got a little sick, my head became dizzy and my movements were not flexible, as if I was drunk.It was only at this moment that I realized that I had just sunk into such deep water.There was a lot of ups and downs and troubles for a while, how could we have nothing at all.Now everyone must have what divers often say is similar to "nitrogen narcosis" diving sickness, that is, nitrogen hyperbaric syndrome.

divers or those working in compressed air environments.They breathe under the environment of higher air pressure, absorb the amount of oxygen, nitrogen and other gases from the air.Oxygen does not usually accumulate in the body as it is constantly being consumed in the body, but nitrogen and other gases dissolved in the blood and tissues may.These gases can only be expelled from the body through the lungs through the blood circulation, otherwise they will enter the body.The process of being expelled from the lungs takes a certain amount of time. When rising from the water, the external pressure decreases, which is not enough to maintain the dissolution of these gases in the blood and tissues, and bubbles may form in the blood and tissues.Usually, divers can prevent the formation of this dangerous bubble by limiting the total amount of gas absorbed by the body.We didn't bring any breathing equipment at all just now. We just poured a lot of water into our stomachs. It must be bad.

I remember that the physiological limit of the average human's diving depth is about 70-75 meters, but the depth we have just sunk is far more than that, and the belated dizziness reaction is really not the right time.The water pressure in the sinkhole was staggeringly high, and we didn't wear masks or goggles for diving.In case the pressure of the water ruptures the eardrum in our ear at that time.Cold water poured into the middle ear through the opening can cause severe vertigo, disorientation, nausea, vomiting, and eventually drowning.Vertigo will not be relieved unless the temperature of the water entering the ear reaches body temperature.However, we didn’t feel uncomfortable when we were in the water, and we only reacted now, hoping to get through the difficulty safely, and ascend to heaven without finding anyone.Fortunately, we had brought some necessary pills with us, and a bottle of pills for diving sickness.After distributing to Aunt Yu and Xinhong, everyone swallowed the pills dry, hoping that after a rest, the damn diving sickness would disappear temporarily.

The panting sound in front still echoed intermittently.I felt as if I was not far ahead. At this moment, I thought fortunately that my ears should still be intact, otherwise I wouldn't be so sharp all the time.After hurriedly taking the flashlight in Xinhong's hand, I shone a light on the cave hall below.Although the cave hall is not as huge as the Tiankeng, it is still as big as a movie theater, so it still looks spectacular.There was something moving in the middle of the cave hall, I took a photo there curiously, and that person turned out to be the old curator Cha!Sure enough, it was his panting sound. I was so happy that I wanted to call out the name of old curator Zha, but I couldn't make the sound, it just hung in my throat.It seems that the diving sickness has not dissipated, but I am very surprised why the old curator is still struggling in the cave hall alone. Can he still see the ghosts and wild souls in the cave hall?

"Bring the flashlight, there seems to be something underneath?" Xinhong said with difficulty.After he took the flashlight, he staggered to the bottom of a raised stone and looked down. As a result, we saw a large white thing moving slowly.If you look closely, those are all cave spiders. Their bodies have no pigment, and they are all white or flesh red, even transparent and translucent, and some of them don't even have eyes.There are generally three types of creatures in caves, there are semi-caves, real caves, and creatures that live temporarily. These cave spiders are real cave creatures, and they have been completely blinded.

The cave spiders crawled towards Mr. Cha, no wonder he was struggling so much.Our whole body is paralyzed, and it is impossible to jump from a high place into the cave. Now it is difficult to even speak, let alone jump from such a high place.Cave spiders can walk on water, so standing water in cave halls has no effect on them.We are all very anxious. If I see the cave spider dismembering Mr. Zha, I will never be able to sleep for the rest of my life. "What should we do? If we don't come to help, old curator Cha will..." Xinhong is very anxious, because old curator Cha is our relative, and he may be the only one who knows what secrets our elders have.

"We are like this, how can we go down..." I lost all strength to speak, and I couldn't make a complete sentence. Aunt Yu didn't speak. Generally, women would have a strong diving reaction when diving into the depths of the current. Now I can only pray that she is fine.If something really happened, even if we could get out alive, we might not be able to get out of the village alive.The old curator Zha already realized that someone was coming in from above, so he raised his head to see clearly, but the cave spider had already climbed up his body, and he hadn't fully raised his head to drive away the swarms of spiders.I've never seen cave spiders before, so I don't know if they are poisonous. If old curator Zha gets hurt by them, where can we find medicine for him.After the flood, all the spiders came out of their nests. I have never seen so many spiders appearing at the same time. Generally, there are no large beasts in caves. Kongmao is probably an exception, and spiders are reasonable.After anxiously looking at the situation below, I suddenly found that the cave spiders were not approaching us at all, let alone attacking us.What's going on here, didn't they find us?I gritted my teeth and found a rock and smashed it down, making a loud noise, but the cave spiders still ignored them, and they just continued to crawl towards the old curator.

"How could this be? Spiders should be able to climb up to us, why don't they come up?" I gradually developed tinnitus in my ears as I spoke. It seems that our situation is not optimistic. It took a long time before the illnesses all came together. "Why are these spiders white... and they don't even have eyes... I've never seen them..." Aunt Yu spoke intermittently, and she didn't feel very well. "Cave spiders are almost like this, but I haven't heard of spiders without eyes, which may have degenerated." I explained, but I have never heard of such a spider species.

"What should we do? If this continues, old curator Zha will..." Xinhong became more and more anxious. I looked down in confusion, and suddenly thought, yes, they are cave spiders, real cave creatures have a characteristic, they are afraid of one thing, no wonder they don't come to us.Because the real cave creatures have been in the dark for a long time, their vision has long been degraded. They are the most sensitive and afraid of light!Our flashlights are always on here, so they haven't dared to rush up!I remember that in the past when cave exploration was just started in China, some people salvaged the fish in the cave, and the fish died soon after they were taken out of the cave.I quickly picked up the flashlight and shot it towards the middle of the cave hall. The cave spiders gradually stopped in their tracks. However, because the cave was too big, even though the flashlight was very bright, the light was still scattered in such a space.The flashlight can only save the three of us, and it still can't help the old curator Zha, at most it can slow down the cave spider. Just when we were anxious like ants on a hot pot, that beast-like voice appeared again.This time the sound was not quite the same as what we heard above, but it was all the same rough. Could it be that there are so many kinds of large beasts in the cave?Although I am still wondering that the sound of the beast that appeared this time is different from the last time, but as soon as its sound appeared, the cave spiders ran away in shock!
