Chapter 681 Door

Zhang Heng brought his face a little closer to the ferns, but the strange smell nearby did not become stronger.

It seems that the smell is not released by these ferns, but the presence of these ferns does make the air more humid, which mixes with the smell, making people more uncomfortable.

Zhang Heng used a knife to scrape off a little bit, put it into a sealed bag, and then continued walking down.

After descending about ten more steps, a door appeared in front of me.

If those ferns just make people feel a little cold and uncomfortable, then the thing on the door is simply ugly. It is like a vine, but there are many small sarcomas on each section, and there are Something like an octopus sucker, they entangled each other, and then they were tightly entangled and attached to the door panel.

And if you look closely, the branches seem to be moving slowly.

This was the first time Zhang Heng saw such a mysterious scene.

He now felt like Alice falling into the rabbit hole, but the latter was roaming in a wonderland, while he felt more like walking into an abyss containing infinite horror.

It's just that the door is already so scary, and I really can't imagine what might be hidden behind the door.

At this time, ordinary people may not be able to help but turn around. However, Zhang Heng just felt a little uncomfortable because of the strange smell. He is naturally calmer than ordinary people. Coupled with the constant flow of emotions in the dungeon, he is now almost I can no longer feel the fear.

Zhang Heng walked straight to the door, and his Lihuamao detector came in handy again.

Regardless of the cat's struggle and resistance, Zhang Heng grabbed the back of its neck and brought it close to the movable branches. Sure enough, as the cat approached, the branches began to squirm faster. This feeling was like discovering Like the hunter of prey.

The civet cat also sensed the coming danger with its biological instinct, and struggled more and more fiercely.

However, its neck was strangled tightly by Zhang Heng, making it impossible for it to escape.

Until the creeping speed of those branches reached a critical value, there was only a muffled sound, and the sarcomas on the branches exploded together, and countless small branches protruded from the inside, like mosquito tentacles, quickly piercing the civet cat. Inside the body, with the help of the [Filter Lens], Zhang Heng could even see the blood flowing into the vines along the tentacles.

The civet cat's body trembled, and at the same time there was fear in its eyes.

Zhang Heng's palm had retracted just before the tumors exploded, but then those weird vines caught it, and when those mosquito-whisker-like branches pierced into the body of the civet cat, the latter finally calmed down. As if accepting his fate, he stopped struggling.

At the same time, Zhang Heng noticed that the vines at the door handle seemed to have loosened a bit. Although it was not intentional, those things were technically sticking out from the door and did not completely seal the door. While watching the other person "eat", Zhang Heng used a knife to open the door a little.

The position was just big enough for him to go in sideways alone.

Although Cihuamao had already taught him a lesson by going off in person, Zhang Heng still decided to go in and take a look.

He had observed the predatory movements of those vines and wondered if it was a common problem among plant life. Judging from the speed, it was not too fast. With Zhang Heng's skill, he could still escape the moment before the sarcoma exploded, and they were preying on them. The squirming will accelerate in advance, and you can prepare in advance if you notice this sign.

In addition, Zhang Heng also confirmed one thing while using a knife to open the door, that is, these things did not seem to have any reaction to inanimate substances, so Zhang Heng weighed it again and walked in.

Now that he is here, even if there is hell behind that door, he has to go in and take a look.

…………

Bai Qing has been listening nervously to the voice on the other end of the earhook.

Zhang Heng didn't speak again for a long time since the last conversation ended, but Bai Qing could hear the pitiful scream of the civet cat after that. The sound was like chalk rubbing against a blackboard, which made people panic.

Although she didn't see the ancient ferns or the ugly vines on the door, someone once said that the real fear comes from human imagination of the unknown.

There is only sound but no picture, which makes this weird atmosphere even more intense.

Several times, Bai Qing couldn't help but want to ask Zhang Heng how the situation was over there and what he saw. However, he was afraid that if she opened his mouth to distract the latter, he would be in danger.

So I could only keep quiet until a chattering sound suddenly started coming from the other end of the earhook.

Bai Qing couldn't bear it any longer and said, "How's it going? What did you see?"

However, there was no answer from Zhang Heng in the ear hook.

The latter seemed to have disappeared, leaving only the increasingly louder squeaking sound, which made Bai Qing's hands and feet feel cold.

Zhang Heng on the other side also noticed the problem with the communicator.

He and Bai Qing have always maintained a connection. Before, he could hear Bai Qing's regular breathing on the other end, but now only the strange noise remained.

Zhang Heng estimated that there might be something wrong with the magnetic field here, which interfered with the communication signal.

But now that he has come in, he can't go out right away, and the most important thing is that he has been attracted by the sight in front of him.

Zhang Heng finally knew where those vines came from.

In the center of the hall in front of him was a strange plant. It looked a bit like a banyan tree, but it was shorter than the banyan tree, but its branches and leaves were more lush, and the accompanying vines on the tree almost covered the entire room, making it look like It's like a horror botanical garden.

No one knows how long this thing has lived, but it seems to be older than the ferns outside.

At the same time, Zhang Heng also noticed that this fossil-like plant could breathe like an animal. Something was beating in its tree cavity, making a thumping sound like a heart. In addition, There was also ash-like material ejected from the tree crowns.

The strange smell that Zhang Heng smelled outside before was the tiny ash flying in the air, some of which even landed on his shoulders and hair tips.

But that's not the scariest thing.

Zhang Heng immediately saw something like a cicada hanging on the tree trunk. They were both large and small. There was a black shadow passing through the small cicada. From the shape, it looked very similar to the one he had seen on the CT scan before. The shadow in the fourth ventricle, and the thing wrapped in the large cicada pupa is more like a human form.

Zhang Heng also saw his face in one of the big cicada pupae.
