Chapter 18 The Broken Stone

"Something is approaching us." I shook the flashlight left and right in fear, and there was a black tide rushing towards us from all directions. The black tide is less than three meters away from us and is constantly approaching. As the black tide comes, there are also chirping sounds one after another, making people creepy.

Liu Yanming also reacted, without saying a word, pierced his head into the water, pushed me hard towards the rock, and followed me and swam quickly. He pushed me repeatedly three times. After I drank four or five sips of water, one of my hands finally touched the rock wall.

"Hurry, Sister Liu." I pulled the rock wall with one hand, grabbed Liu Yanming's palm with the other, pulled her hard, and pulled her out of the water surface. But then a black water column gushed out in the direction of Liu Yanming leaving the water surface. Hurry, Liu Yanming's time to get out of the water surface was just right, and the water column all fell back to the water surface when it touched her soles.

After throwing Liu Yanming to the rock, I was about to twist my body and climb up the rock. But at this moment, I heard some kind of insect chirping and excitedly screaming. When I screamed something was wrong, I saw a black "wave" rushing towards me. This time the distance was close enough that I realized that there was no black wave. It was actually a wave composed of dense fists, shaped like turtles and tortoises. These monsters were spreading their teeth and claws, shaking their slender tails, covering me.

Before I could even scream, I was surrounded by countless monsters. Suddenly, a heart-wrenching pain came from my body. It seemed that these things were already impatient to eat my body. I am afraid that in less than a minute, I would be gnawed by them so much that they didn’t even have bones left.

While I was pessimistic and fantasizing, a powerful force suddenly came from my armpit, causing me to break away from the water instantly. The insects that originally covered me fell back to the bottom of the water one by one, except for a few guys who were biting my body tightly.

"Tsk tsk, it's so disgusting." Liu Yanming dragged me to the center of the rock, and showed a disgusting expression when he looked at the bugs biting my body. However, at this moment, her movements were quite quick. She grabbed the bugs and threw them into the ground, and then kicked them hard, and one of them was solved. But in the blink of an eye, she killed the five bugs, which seemed a little cruel.

"This... the last end is a bit tricky." Liu Yanming squatted down and stared at my arm and saw it.

I looked at it and there was a fist-sized one-third of the size of a fist in my left arm. The turtle-like insect was shaking its slender tail, biting my arm, and half of its body had already penetrated into my arm.

"This thing is too cruel. You can't stop smelling your blood. Never let it penetrate into your body. Hold on." Before she understood what she said, she saw her slap at the position of the insect on my arm, and with a bang, the flesh and blood flew everywhere. At this time, she slowly pulled out the dead body of the insect from my arm bit by bit. Then she took out a white scarf from her pocket and wrapped my arm.

She smiled and said, "It hurts, but my medical box was washed away by water. The conditions are simple, so you can just click." After saying that, she rubbed the dirty blood on her hands on my sleeve.

"It's good if you're not dead." I took a breath and said with a wry smile.

Next, I carefully examined my body and found that there were no more insects on my body before I breathed a sigh of relief. However, eight wounds the size of a child's fists were added to my body, especially the one on my arm, which would occasionally cause biting pain.

"These monsters should be inseparable from water." Liu Yanming picked up the flashlight I swear to keep to death and shine it on the water surface. It was found that in addition to the rocks that protruded out of the water surface, these monsters, shaped like turtles, spread all the way to the distance where the flashlight could not even shine.

"Smelling the smell of strangers, they are all crazy." Liu Yanming shone the beam of light on the water closest to the rock. The monsters were opening their thumb-sized mouths, biting their sharp teeth, and swinging fiercely in the direction of the rock, looking eager to try, but they never crossed the rock.

"Look, they really don't dare to leave the water. I must observe these strange creatures. I have a friend who is engaged in biological research. If he knows this, he will be very excited." Seeing that although the monsters were cruel, they did not dare to leave the water surface, Liu Yanming became brave. He took a flashlight and took another step forward, intending to carefully observe their appearance.

"careful."

As soon as Liu Yanming's step was settled, a "monster" suddenly twitched his tail, jumped out of the water, and jumped in the direction of her. At the same time, the entire water surface seemed to be boiling, and countless "monsters" began to jump towards the direction of the rocks on the water surface.

Liu Yanming was frightened by this scene and took a sudden step back and sat on the ground. The "monster" that jumped out of the water and fell above the rock kept shaking its tail. In just a moment, it stopped jumping and died completely.

Liu Yanming looked at the 'monster' surging surface, then looked at the bleeding wound in my body, and said with some lingering fear and gladness: "Huh, I'm scared to death. There are at least millions of these things. If we really rush over, we will probably be eaten in a blink of an eye, not even the residue left."

I said, "I finally found a place to stay, but there are even more terrifying creatures. Now that we are surrounded by these creatures, how should we leave here? We can't stay for long. The only advantage now is that these bugs cannot leave the water surface, and we are still safe for the time being. But looking at the crazy spirit of these bugs, I'm afraid they won't take the initiative to retreat. Can't we wait here?"

Liu Yanming shook his head and said, "Sitting and waiting for death is not a good way. I am a medical student. There are many examples of all things dependent on each other in medical books. Just like where poisonous snakes often appear, there are always drugs to treat this toxicity. I believe that there must be things here to restrain these insects."

I have to admit that although Liu Yanming is a girl, she has more experience than me, calmer than me, and knows more than me. After her reminder, my eyes lit up and I really remembered that I had read similar books. So Liu Yanming and I stopped sitting and waiting to die, but scanned every inch of land with a flashlight and carefully identified it.

But after searching, there was no harvest at all, because the surface of this stone was smooth, not to mention special plants, even the soil was not seen.

I murmured, "Are they not unable to live without the water surface, but are afraid of the stone itself?"

Liu Yanming suddenly pulled me and said excitedly: "No, look, there are words here."

"There is a word?" I turned my head in confusion, but saw a shallow mark on the originally smooth stone wall under the light beam of the flashlight. Without careful observation, I could not recognize it. This shallow mark is similar to the Chinese character "Seven". There is a strange pattern below the character "Seven". The pattern depicts an object similar to a person lying flat in a pit. When I saw this pattern, I felt that the stone seemed not as simple as we imagined, especially the numbers and patterns must express what they mean.

Liu Yanming frowned, his expression was sometimes excited and sometimes frightened, as if he was judging something. After a long time, she said excitedly: "I know what this means. The person lies in a pit, which should mean burial, etc., and the '7' should be a number mark. Look at this rock. Does it look like a coffin?" Following the direction of the flashlight, I observed the shape of the rock we were in. Its ends were raised and the center was slightly concave, which really looked like a coffin. Since the place where we are may be a large coffin made of a stone, will there be something more terrifying than this bug? One thing is to subdue another thing, can it be caused by something more terrifying?

"Click..."

Just as we were more and more afraid of it, the sound of eggshells breaking suddenly came from under the rocks in my body. Liu Yanming hurriedly shone the flashlight and saw a crack appearing on the smooth rock wall less than half a meter away from my right hand.

"Click..."

There was another sound of shattering, and the cracks expanded like spider webs, and were about to be completely broken.
