From seeing it

Xiao Ling grasped with both hands as he fell, and he didn't know how many branches he caught, but these branches were very fragile, and they broke when he pulled them, and fell down with him.

The cannibals that fell on the top had already been thrown far behind by the crowd. They fell hundreds of meters all the way down, broke how many branches, and finally smashed into lumps of mud one by one middle.

Falling from hundreds of meters above, no one should be spared. Fortunately, a large number of branches were broken along the way. Although these branches were rotten and could not withstand the impact of everyone falling, they still greatly eased the fall. The impact force of the falling, and finally a large amount of mud below, everyone smashed into the mud one by one, which further offset the impact force of the falling, so that everyone in the scientific expedition team escaped death by chance and did not fall from a high altitude. die.

Xiao Ling felt as if his bones were falling apart, but after climbing out of the mud, he realized that there was no mud below, but countless colorful mushrooms piled up like a mountain, and they fell into the colorful mushrooms below one after another. , these undead mushrooms were as soft as mud, and everyone fell into them. With the help of this mushroom mountain, they buffered the impact force and escaped.

Xiao Ling let out a long breath and realized that the helmet had also fallen off. When he looked up, he could vaguely see some colorful phosphorescent lights flickering around him, and a large number of branches were constantly falling from the air.

The mushrooms piled up like a mountain at the bottom were the ones that fell from the undead tree before, and they piled up below, which happened to save everyone's life.

Everyone struggled to get up from the mushroom mud one after another, but found that there were indistinct broken branches piled up on the mushroom mountain below, and more branches were falling from above. This scene was like the end of the world.

This undead tree that had survived for hundreds of millions of years completely collapsed.

Its thick main tree body, which cannot be seen in its entirety by the human eye, is breaking apart, as if completely charred, breaking into thousands of pieces, rolling down, burying and submerging everything below.

Frightened, everyone huddled below, not daring to make any rash moves for the time being.

Fortunately, although the mountains of broken branches completely buried the bottom, there were a lot of gaps in it, which was different from being buried alive with sand, so that everyone would not be suffocated to death.

The loud rumbling noise outside could be heard endlessly, and everyone who was buried below by a large number of branches heard it, as if the sky was falling apart, and they were all terrified.

After a long time, the sound outside quieted down, and the undead tree collapsed completely. Under the abyss, there were piles of mushrooms, broken branches and shattered pieces of the undead tree's main pole.

Everyone waited until there was no more movement outside, and then slowly struggled to crawl out from the gaps where the branches were piled up.

Although there are many branches pressed on it, fortunately, these branches have long been rotten, and they will be shattered and broken with just a little force.

It didn't take much effort for everyone to crawl out of the mushroom mud below.

Looking in all directions, there is endless darkness. I don't know what the bottom of the abyss is like, and the top is even more dark, and I don't know how high the abyss is.

Among the crowd, Xiao Ling crawled out first.

Despite the accident, Xiao Ling quickly calmed himself down. He felt that there was endless strength in his body, and he was not injured when he fell all the way. At this moment, he crawled out from below and easily pushed away the accumulated branches above.

The camping backpack on his body was lost in the fall. Fortunately, not far away, he saw two camping backpacks that fell from someone who did not know.

Xiao Ling grabbed one in each hand. This camping backpack was full of various supplies, and it was not light, but he held it in his hand like nothing. Pulling the two camping backpacks, he crawled out first.

Pull open one of the camping backpacks, find a camping lantern in it, turn it on, and shine it in all directions.

The light of this camping lantern illuminates a relatively wide area, but its penetrating power is weak, and it can only illuminate the surrounding area with a diameter of about 20 meters.

With the help of the light, all Xiao Ling could see were piles of broken and carbonized branches, all black.

Not far away, he saw a figure flickering, and soon saw that it was Sun Tao.

Sun Tao's helmet was also lost, his head was injured, and blood flowed down his forehead.

Holding the camping lantern, Xiao Ling hurried over, grabbed Sun Tao's arm, and pulled him out.

Sun Tao took a deep breath, wiped the blood from his forehead, and began to call everyone's names loudly.

Soon everyone crawled out from below one after another, hearing Sun Tao's voice, gathered here.

Eventually seventeen people gathered.

Everyone was more or less injured, and looked in a panic.

Zhou Kesheng counted the number of people. In addition to the few members who died, the archaeologist Wang Weiguo in the scientific expedition team also disappeared.

Sun Tao led several team members to search for backpacks and equipment, but finally found only five backpacks. After counting the equipment, the food and water in the backpacks were only enough for everyone to last for two days. Many powerful munitions were lost, especially a large amount of ammunition. make the situation extremely serious.

Sun Tao's face was ugly. With the remaining equipment, not to mention man-eating beasts, even if a group of Komodo dragons came, they might not be able to deal with them.

Zhang Shuang died, and the nano-locator was lost. At this moment, everyone must have penetrated at least two kilometers underground. In this weird and terrifying underground dark world, it is almost impossible to return along the original path.

Especially in this thousand-meter-deep abyss cliff, the undead tree collapsed, and everyone could no longer climb out along the original path, which meant that they had to find another way out.

"Everyone, don't be discouraged. There is no unparalleled road, and there must be another way out here." Old Professor Li Zhibao clapped his hands, his voice slow and steady, encouraging morale.

Maybe it was his calmness that infected everyone, and everyone became more emotionally stable.

The undead tree was charred and fell all the way. Hu Shengzhe's hands were blackened by the charred branches. He habitually wiped the sweat from his face with his hands, and his face suddenly turned white and black. Under the light of the camping lantern , looked a little funny, but everyone couldn't laugh when they saw it, because everyone was almost in a mess, not much better than Hu Shengzhe.

Xiao Ling looked at Zhou Kesheng and said, "Dean Zhou, which direction should we go now?"

Zhou Kesheng waved to him and asked him to come to his side.

Xiao Ling came to him with a camping lantern, saw him take out the map by the light of the camping lantern, and lifted the top of the map.

It was only then that Xiao Ling noticed that this was not a map, but several maps superimposed together, but the paper was extremely thin. He didn't pay much attention to it before, and always thought it was just a map.
