Vol 7 Chapter 11: Water source of terror

As soon as Fang Linyan spoke, the vulture immediately tied the safety line and took the lead and crawled down the deep ditch.
The edge of the ditch wall here is indeed a lot of weathered rocks. Some seem to be solid, but they can't bear the weight at all. After stepping on, they will roll down.
However, vultures are now agile/perceptive. It can be said that they are far superior to ordinary people. Even the world champions of Olympic Games-related events will be easily blown by him, so it can be said that they have reached the bottom without any risk.
As soon as the vulture moved, Maher immediately followed, and he could see that he did have two brushes in rock climbing and his skills were very good.
And his behavior of "follow me" instead of "give me up" also made these unruly guys follow honestly.
After arriving at the bottom of the rift valley, it is indeed a little desperate below. At first glance, the stone is removed and it is dust.
However, Maher told Fang Linyan that based on his previous experience, he could pay more attention to the traces on the rock wall next to him.
He had seen an expedition report on this planet before, and the explorer said that near the water source on this planet, there would be bark-like cracks on the wall next to it.
After exploring for about a few hundred meters at the bottom of the deep groove, the people around them also complained - of course, they were still in the stage of defamation.
But soon Maher seemed to notice something, took out a lighter-sized instrument, directly inserted it into the ground, and then pressed the button to face the humane next to him:
"Thirty seconds countdown, ready for a blast."
Morris, the player next to him, said immediately:
"YESSIR!"
Then he took out a high-explosive grenade from his waist and tucked it under the stone next to him. Then he waited for Maher's countdown to prepare to pull the ring.
Soon, the grenade exploded directly, and the shock wave generated by the explosion was transmitted along the rocks and soil towards the surroundings. The instrument that Maher took out was able to accurately record the feedback of the shock wave, and then accurately measured the nearby shock waves. The geological structure is drawn.
Soon, the instrument began to hum, and then the indicator light on it began to flash.
"It's coming out!" the person next to him said nervously.
As the data collected by the instrument is imported into the portable optical brain, the powerful computing program begins to play its role. The topographic map of the vicinity immediately appears on the screen of the optical brain. The solid line indicates the rock and the dotted line indicates the possible cavity. .
Then Yi Ganren immediately looked at the left side of the rock wall 30 meters away, and he had expectation in his eyes, because from a geological point of view, it was actually a terrain similar to a funnel.
At the bottom of the left side of the rock wall, there is an obvious cavity and depression. Everyone present has rich experience in survival in the wild, so you can see that there should be a high probability of water here.
Now that it had a target, it was easy to find, and soon Maher found a well-hidden mountain crack nearby.
This crack was originally blocked by a few stones, and it was invisible at first glance, but after moving it away, a clear path appeared under the crack.
After discovering this, Yigan was even more excited, because this is a very basic reasoning-if there is no water source below, how can animals step on a path?
After entering the crack, I realized that the first few meters were narrow, and the passage behind it became more and more spacious.
And the passage was spiraling downwards. As you walked down, you could clearly feel the temperature drop, a damp rushed on your face, and a faint smell of rotting began to come from your nose.
After walking down for more than 20 meters, the headlight that Tucker was wearing shone down to the reflected light. He immediately stopped, and then directly turned the muzzle up to the sky, replaced it with a flare, and shot it at the top.
Suddenly, this underground space was illuminated by the rising flares. It can be clearly seen that there is a small pond with a diameter of 30 to 40 square meters at a distance of a dozen meters below the pedestrian. It can be seen that if there is precipitation, then the accumulated water in a radius of several kilometers will eventually gather here.
The pond is only about ten square meters, and the water inside is extremely clear, as if even the gravel below can be seen clearly ---------- this is of course impossible!
In fact, the surface of this pond is covered with a peculiar layer of fish-eye duckweed, the color is almost withered yellow-green, and it even looks desperate.

On the surface of the fish-eye duckweed, there is even a layer of black mosquitoes and flies hovering. As soon as people get closer, they fly up and flutter on the face with hunger and thirst, like a black cloud. .
Fortunately, this time the adventure was supported by the big gold master's banknotes, and the adventure team was fully equipped, and the insecticide was sprayed directly after it was taken out, and a large piece of rustle fell on the ground.
These dead insect corpses quickly attracted several gecko-like creatures, more than 30 centimeters in length, but if the tail had black barbs like a scorpion, it was very uncomfortable at first glance. They completely ignored the existence of human beings and directly began to swallow at the insect corpse.
After approaching the pond, the rancid smell became stronger. The vulture in front found several snake creatures snaking around the pond, and one of them was still twisting and hissing.
Given that they may have the ability to spray poison, Tucker next to him decisively took out the tactical dagger around his waist and greeted them one by one. Finally, Tucker collected the corpses of these snake creatures and said they were roasting at night. Eat, obviously this guy's taste is also slightly heavier.
In addition, there are some strange bat-like creatures hanging on the side of the cave wall. The area where they spread their wings is at least the size of a washbasin. After seeing humans enter, they are a little eager to move and send out threatening threats. "His" terrible sound.
But the people behind apparently guarded against their abnormal movement a long time ago. After being killed by a shuttle bullet, the remaining guys obediently confessed, flapped their wings and flew away. Fang Linyan flipped the corpse and saw that they had Sharp mouthparts like mosquitoes/cicadas, with very sharp claws.
After successfully approaching the water source, everyone remained vigilant. One of the team members found something and pulled the water surface to remove the fish-eye duckweed on the surface.
It was immediately discovered that there were a lot of rotting small animal carcasses soaked in this water source, including lizards and skunk-like ones. Most of these guys came to drink water and were then killed by predators entrenched here.
If Fang Linyan is right, the killers are those bats with spider mouthparts. They can inject venom into the prey to paralyze and die, and then soak it in water to accelerate the decay, and they can use their mouths. The organ pierced into the carrion, sucking the fermented juice and spoiled blood.
For scavengers, their digestive systems have become accustomed to decomposed corpses, and fresh flesh and blood will make them indigestion. This is their processing kitchen. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
Tucker seemed very active and cooperative at this time, obviously because Maher really found water at this time. Once he filed a complaint in front of Deyaco, he would not be able to eat and walk around, so he was making up for it at this time. .
So he leaned down first and started taking water samples with a bucket. Uh, this water does not look much different from the Yellow River water.
The water of the Yellow River is a bowl of water and half a bowl of sand, and the source of water here is a bowl of water with half a bowl of larvae, parasites, humus, fisheye duckweed, and mysterious flocs...
Fang Linyan looked at this thing and felt that if it were not a last resort, he would definitely not drink it into his belly.
But at this time, Tucker immediately began to take off his shoes and socks, and then scrubbed the socks hastily, soaked one end in the water source of the small bucket, and the other end bypassed the edge of the bucket, forming a "several". The shape of the word is placed on it.
Soon, according to the siphon effect, drops of water fell out of the sock at the end of the suspension, and the drops of water looked very clear. However, Fang Linyan was still not interested at all, not only because he couldn't believe in this simple filtering method, but also because it was the socks that Tucker had worn for three days!
Because it was only necessary to test the water quality, I only took about a cup of water and stopped. Then Tucker added a little special purifier to it, and then began to use the instrument to detect the relevant index, and quickly cheered. :
"OK, chromaticity <5, turbidity <3, no harmful substances are detected, and it has reached Class III standards, qualified!"
Then Tucker did something that surprised Fang Linyan, took the glass of water and drank it, and then said to Morris who was recorded next to him:
"Take it down, there is no smell."
