Chapter 453 Silence and Fear

Zhang Xiaoqiang, who was sitting in the cave, waiting for the dawn, did not know that the frying pan had already exploded outside. The big fish found those fish heads and saw that his descendants could not even make up the corpses. The head fish bone was crushed and swallowed, followed by a wail. The big fish on the entire island seemed to have received an order, and began to writhe on the island. They wanted to find the enemies who were hiding.

Although the exit of the cave has been blocked, everyone can still feel the abnormality outside the cave. Not only is the big fish rummaging on the flat ground of the island, but even the hills above everyone's heads are not spared. The sound spread to the silent cave through those transom windows and lighting points, making the former residents tremble.

From time to time, the air that comes in through the ventilation holes still has a strong fishy smell. Although everyone is used to smelling fishy smell these days, they are still afraid. The difference between live fish and dead fish is explained to them outside the cave. the difference.

"Wow...Wow...Wow..." A little girl in the arms of a woman in her twenties suddenly burst into tears. The crying sound instantly broke the silence in the cave. Both men and women looked over together.

The woman holding the child felt that everyone's eyes were on her, and in a panic, she covered the child's mouth and nose to prevent him from crying.

Under the dim oil lamp, the little boy's face had already turned purple, and he might suffocate to death soon.

"Let go..."

With Zhang Xiaoqiang's approval, the woman let go of her hand, the child stopped crying, the little purple face continued to inhale and exhale, the woman hugged her child tightly and began to cry... the woman cried The voice was not loud, but in this quiet cave, it seemed to hit everyone's hearts. They heard this muffled crying in depression, and felt even more irritable. They wanted to reprimand this woman, but they were also worried that Zhang Xiaoqiang would scold them. I can be depressed in my heart, waiting for the hard night to pass.

In a corner where no one was paying attention, a man sat there quietly. He didn't panic like the others, nor did he feel any restlessness. To be honest, his performance was the most outstanding person in this cave. , He is like a well-educated eminent monk, without sadness or joy, without surprise or anger, even calmer than Zhang Xiaoqiang and the most outstanding people around him.

The man must have sat there motionless, staring blankly at the flickering flames on the kerosene lamp. The flames that seemed to be floating on the oil lamp occupied all his mind. This man was the first to be driven away by Huang Quan with a rifle. The man who filled the soil, since he sat in front of the mound to vent and cry that day, he has changed.

The man no longer talks, no longer communicates with his companions, he usually works when he is asked to work, eats when asked to eat, and stays alone in all spare time except sleeping , No one bothers, no one wants to answer.

At this moment, all his attention is on the floating flame, every time the flame is a little dim, the cloudiness in his eyes will be a little bit more, and every time the brightness of the flame is a little bit stronger, the clarity in his eyes will be more Bit by bit, without knowing when, his life, his soul, were tied together with this little oil lamp.

The oil lamp was flickering, and so was his heart. No one paid attention to him, and no one knew what he would do next. Just like what he did a few days ago, others would only think that he was hiding alone and afraid.

Zhang Xiaoqiang felt something was wrong. After the child's loud and short cry, the big fish above his head seemed to be moving more frequently. Not only did no big black fish leave, but new big black fish joined them, and there was a rustling sound. into one piece.

"Could it be that...big fish have ears too?" Zhang Xiaoqiang felt a little strange. In his image, the fish were in the water, and they could only feel the vibration of the water waves at most? Could the air also convey this vibration.

"If it's not the sound, then what is it?" Zhang Xiaoqiang felt that this place attracted the attention of the big black fish. He still didn't know the reason, but no matter what the reason was, Zhang Xiaoqiang wanted to find it out.

"Could it be a lamp?" Like the man, Zhang Xiaoqiang saw the erratic flame. The brightness of the flame was not high, and it could only faintly illuminate a small space. It had already illuminated a place farther away from the center of the cave. Less than, plunged into darkness.

Zhang Xiaoqiang knows that there are many lighting points and ventilation holes on the mountain, so it is hard to guarantee that the big fish will not see those small holes. You must know that at night, a little light can be seen from a long distance. If it is really because of the lights? ? ?

"Huh..." The oil lamp was blown out by Zhang Xiaoqiang, and the cave was completely plunged into darkness. After the darkness completely fell, everyone's heart was tense. Many people were afraid of the darkness. Whether it was here or before the end of the world, this is A mild psychological problem, the fear of the dark is an innate psychological instinct of human beings, which is the result of the evolution process.

After the initial discomfort, most people adjusted their psychological state. Above their heads, the sound of big fish crawling overwhelmed their fear of darkness. They sat quietly in place, waiting for the darkness to be overwhelmed by tomorrow Morning ends.

"Huh...drink..." The cave was too quiet, more than a hundred people exhaled and inhaled at the same time, at this moment, miraculously connected in a line and turned into a loud noise, compared to the previous quietness, it was a loud noise. The range is not large, and it just covers the people sitting together, making them feel the magnitude of this loud noise.

After the loud noise, more than a hundred people held their breath at the same time, they were shocked by the sudden muffled noise, and there was a weird feeling in the cave between the movement and the stillness.

"Xi Xi Suo Suo..." A slight noise slowly spread out from the darkness, and Zhang Xiaoqiang heard it too, and didn't pay much attention to it. There are so many people, isn't it normal to go to the bathroom? I was still thinking maliciously in my heart, hoping that guy would step on his own poop.

The darkness is long and boring. Zhang Xiaoqiang, who was waiting in boredom, thought about everything that happened after he came out of the base. As he thought about it, his thoughts jumped to the day when the end of the world happened. He saw it behind the window. A cannibal scene, the picture of the scene is so clear in his mind, as if everything that happened was still yesterday.

Suddenly, a man's loud roar was faintly heard. The distance was a little far away. Zhang Xiaoqiang couldn't hear what the man was shouting. What is certain is that the cry didn't come from inside the cave, but seemed to come from outside the cave. .

Without Zhang Xiaoqiang's orders, dozens of flashlights were turned on together, and dozens of orange beams of light shot back and forth in the hall of the cave. There was no abnormality. Everyone sat in their respective positions with their heads down and waited. Where did the sound come from?

Not only the team members were looking for it, after the darkness in the cave was driven away again, the residents on the original island who were waiting in torment also began to look at each other, conveying some kind of information that only they themselves knew.
