Chapter 55 Chapter 25 The Fall

The cave is very wide, and there are many green trees and weeds growing on the cave wall, as well as vines and vines, but the glowing plants are not these plants, but glowing lizards!This kind of lizard used to be very common in Southeast Asia, and there are many in South America. They are different from ordinary lizards. They can not only fly, but also have a luminous body similar to a light bulb at the tail.When the luminous lizard flies up, people looking up from the ground will think it is an airplane overhead.When I was a child, my grandfather liked raising luminous lizards very much, and the family raised many of them.The lizards are harmless, but their lights don't stay on all the time, but only during mating season to attract mates.

This kind of thing is not made up by me. There was a program on the National Geographic Channel, which mentioned that a biologist learned from a book that there was a kind of glowing lizard, so he traveled across the ocean and over the mountains. Go to the deep mountain, follow the map to find the guide, and find the guide who led the author up the mountain to find the luminous lizard.The guide is old, but he still likes to talk about the glowing lizard.That was sixty years ago, and the guide, who is now eighty years old, is slow and obviously unable to lead the biologists up the mountain again, but he has a clear mind, not only telling the route, but also mentioning the discovery of the lizard. Beside his cave, he planted an orange tree.He planted it when they were resting locally after they discovered the lizard.

This program hadn't been aired at that time, so Zhao Shuai, Mo Chao, and Jiang Guohua were all amazed at it, thinking they saw a fairy beast.There are countless luminous lizards, all of them inhabit the inner walls of the rugged caves, and some even drill into their nests on the walls of the caves.It turns out that this is the old den of the luminous lizard. The UFO we saw is actually the luminous lizard.During mating, luminous lizards not only glow, but also make buzzing sounds. I have heard and seen them in Nanyang, but this is the first time I have seen such a large-scale luminous lizard.That night, the glowing lizards flew across the sky in a circle in rut, and then dispersed behind the col before we mistook it for the crash of the spaceship.

"This is strange, how come there are such a large number of them?" I was secretly surprised, and at the same time noticed that shopkeeper Wu really backed away slowly. Zhao Shuai was in a hurry, and he yelled: "Hey, you want money, where are you going to run!" On the other side of the cave, there is a group of dense dwarf trees, the leaves there are always moving with the wind, it is very likely that the exit of the cave is there.Judging from the section of road we walked in, this cave should be about to leave the range of the col. The exit is likely to be the place where the plane crashed, because there are some burnt marks in the cave.There is also a pool in the center of the cave, the water in it is clear and bright, and it seems that the charming aroma comes from there.In addition to these, there are a few fallen stone sculptures in the cave, some stone tables and benches, and other ancient relics cannot be seen, and there is no tomb of Wang Ya at all.

I don't know what the shopkeeper Wu is up to. After he retreated a few feet, those luminous lizards rushed towards us like a flood like crazy.Glowing lizards are non-venomous, and when they go from mating to giving birth, their teeth secrete venom to protect their offspring.Although the venom of the luminous lizards only has an anesthetic effect and will not kill people on the spot, but being swallowed by so many luminous lizards, ordinary people would not be able to bear it. Strangely, the glowing lizard didn't flock to Shopkeeper Wu, but just flew towards us, glowing as it flew.Mo Chao and Jiang Guohua were behind us. They saw this scene, but they didn't feel scared.Zhao Shuai and I wanted to flee the same way, but Mo Chao immediately reminded us that everyone had fire and gasoline on them.The original road was too long, and we were surrounded by glowing lizards before we reached the exit. Fortunately, we carried some equipment back then, otherwise we would not have broken it now.

The luminous lizards surrounded us, we rushed out of the corridor, ran to the empty cave, endured the sting of the lizards, and poured gasoline everywhere, and many luminous lizards were sprayed with gasoline.I don't care how precious the luminous lizard is, the law of the jungle is the eternal truth of nature, so I immediately lit the lighter.Zhao Shuai was faster than me, and his movements were very sensitive. A group of glowing lizards caught fire instantly, and the scene was extremely tragic. There was a sea of ​​fire in the cave, and what was even more frightening was that the sea of ​​fire could move, and the luminous lizard rushed towards us after it caught fire.Only the pool in the cave can prevent fire. I rushed to the side of the pool and saw that the water in the pool was not deep, probably only three or four meters, so I asked everyone to take shelter in the pool first.Jiang Guohua didn't know how to swim, and he refused to go into the water, so he had to run through the hidden exit of Shopkeeper Wu, but it had been set on fire by the glowing lizard, and he couldn't walk through at all.

The exits on both sides can no longer be walked, and there are a lot of glowing lizards, and we spilled a lot of gasoline, so the whole cave is on fire, and it can be said that it is difficult to move.I was so anxious that I lost my mind. I was not sure whether the pool was poisonous, so I jumped into it first.However, if someone poisoned it thousands of years ago, the poison should have flowed away after so long.Because the pool has not been dry, it means that the pool is not stagnant water, but a clear mountain spring. There was a splash, and the water splashed, and I shivered as soon as I jumped in, the pool was so fucking cold.There is a consensus among tea lovers that the most precious thing in natural landscapes is not the clarity, but the coldness.The cold mentioned here means clear cold, and it is not the kind of cold stagnated by stagnant water, but the cold in long-term flowing water. This kind of cold water is considered to be rich in the aura of mountains and rivers.Water can detect many problems. For example, where there is gold, the water must be clear; where there are pearls, the water must be soft; where there are mosquito eggs, the water must be rotten; where there are dragons, the water must be dark.

Although the situation is critical, I still think of the content about water in the Canon. If you survive the catastrophe, the water in this pool must be used to make tea, and it is absolutely no worse than the mountain spring outside.Soon, Zhao Shuai also jumped in, but Mo Chao and Jiang Guohua remained standing by the pool.I know that Jiang Guohua is afraid of water, but at such a critical moment, why care about these things, so I want to persuade Jiang Guohua to hide in the water quickly, or he will be a burning ghost. Who knows, before I could say anything, Mo Chao, who was standing behind Jiang Guohua, suddenly had gloomy eyes. Before Jiang Guohua noticed the abnormality, Mo Chao pushed Jiang Guohua down into the pool.Mo Chao talked a lot, Jiang Guohua talked less, but then the two people's personalities seemed to be reversed, and I was always curious.Now seeing that Mo Chao was playing tricks behind his back, with vicious eyes, he thought to himself that this kid must be a ghost.

I hurriedly helped Jiang Guohua who had fallen into the pool in the water, and Mo Chao also jumped down, but the water splashed too much, our eyes were blurred, so we couldn't make a sound right away, we just wiped the water off our faces.Maybe, Mo Chao was just helping Jiang Guohua and didn't want him to be burned to death.We floated on the water, and glowing lizards on fire kept falling from above like planes crashing.I got out of danger for a while, so I felt sorry for the glowing lizards. They had grown so big, so they were burned to death. It was a pity. It was a life anyway. Many of the luminous lizards fell into the pool. I couldn't throw the bodies of luminous lizards out because I had to support Jiang Guohua, who couldn't swim.It is a pity to know that the water in the pool is so precious, and now it is dirty with corpses, although the water in the pool is flowing, and the unclean filth will flow away.Zhao Shuai has been scolding shopkeeper Wu angrily in the water, not only scolding the eighteen generations of his ancestors, but also threatening to castrate him.

Shopkeeper Wu escaped from the cave just now, probably before he walked away. He thought we would be killed by the glowing lizard, but he may have miscalculated this move.But it's strange, why the luminous lizard only chased us, but ignored shopkeeper Wu.In the past, my grandfather raised many luminous lizards, and they never took the initiative to bite people.The luminous lizard can only listen to its owner if it is raised from a young age. Shopkeeper Wu is not like a pet owner, not to mention that there are so many luminous lizards here, how could they listen to the command of shopkeeper Wu.

Zhao Shuai didn't bother to think about it, he took a breath, and immediately threw the things in his backpack onto the shore, and then sighed loudly that many good things were already wet.I was also worried that the azure clay teapot was smashed during the chase, but fortunately the teapot was fine, it was just soaked in water.Zhao Shuai was lying on the edge of the pool, sometimes sorting things, sometimes hiding in the water, avoiding the glowing lizard on fire.I saw Zhao Shuai tidying up his things, so I immediately advised him not to worry, but to pay attention to safety, and don't just focus on tidying up things, but forget the glowing lizard on fire.Although they are at the end of the road now, they can still torment you if they bite you before they die. I just wanted to say that Zhao Shuai was too indifferent to the situation, but I didn't expect to find that the astrology disk in his bag had changed, and those blue scratches had disappeared.In fact, it can't be said to be gone, it's just that those blue scratches turned into slurry and flowed away from the copper-colored astrological disk.Seeing this, I hurriedly opened the clothes, and then asked Mo Chao to help me look at the back, whether those blue scratches were also dissipating.Mo Chao took a look at Jiang Guohua first, then walked around behind me, took a look, and told me that the blue scratches had indeed faded. Finally, I remembered that the blue scratches were not scratched by ghosts, but related to glowing lizards!My grandfather raised many luminous lizards. When they mate, they secrete venom from their teeth and transparent mucus from their bodies.This kind of mucus sticks to the body, and there is no abnormality at first, but after a long time, the mucus will turn blue.Also, the eggs of luminous lizards and even most lizards will glow at night, because the eggs contain a very strange substance, which not only glows, but also turns blue after drying, and ordinary water is washing not drop. The horoscope disk that fell from the sky must have touched the glowing lizard, so it has blue scratches on its body. I touched it and scratched its back a few times, so it left blue scratches.Zhao Shuai also touched the astrology disk, but I was the first to discover the astrology disk at that time. When Zhao Shuai found me, it had been a while. It is likely that the mucus on the astrology disk had dried up, so he was clean . Although the blue scratches did not appear on Zhao Shuai, this substance appeared frequently near the four of us. The luminous lizard had already sensed the weak pheromone, so it kept chasing us, ignoring Shopkeeper Wu.However, I was a little confused again. How did Shopkeeper Wu figure that we found the astrology disk, and how did the astrology disk fall from the sky?
