Chapter 235 Creatures in the mine veins

Everyone thought that the two missing people must be behind the cave wall, but Lao Han said that the entrance of the cave is too small, how could a normal human being able to get through it? What's more, the signal of life reaction on the instrument is also very weak, and it seems that it is not a human.

The captain of the garrison asked the people of the exploration team that they had discovered any life reactions when they were exploring in this mine before? The people of the exploration team said that there was no.

Things are becoming more and more strange, but no matter what, you must dig it out.

When the leader gave the order, the mine truck was started and the drilling machine was started. The hole was expanded little by little - because he was worried that the person inside would be injured, no explosives were used.

Finally, the entire hole wall was dug open, but the scene in front of everyone was shocked - a huge transparent mineral vein appeared in front of me.

Star marrow is a semi-crystalline substance, but this is the first time I have seen it in a fully transparent state.

The light of the mine lamp hits the hole and covers the ore veins, making it look particularly crystal clear, but when you look inside, you can see countless black shadows inside.

What's even more strange is that the black shadows seem to be shaking.

This makes people completely confused because, from the outside, the entire star marrow is a tightly slit and has no breathable place at all. If these black shadows are creatures, they will not be able to survive inside. But it is from this star marrow that the signal characteristics of the creature appear.

Because this quasaracteria is toxic, it is not daring to open the ore veins easily. The exploration department has transferred new x-ray fluoroscopy instruments to analyze the organisms in the ore veins.

The analysis results show that there are more than 100 unknown organisms in this vein. Among them, the smaller organisms form a population, and there are two larger organisms, both of which are similar in size and size to humans.

The rescue team began to complain about why the perspective instrument cannot clearly take images of the ore organisms like cameras. People from the exploration department said that this is entirely because the funds cannot keep up. Only 0,006% of the new exploration expenditure in Changan Parliament is spent on new technology research and development. This amount of money is divided into basic research, applied research and advanced research. Even if everyone tries to promote innovation, problems often arise due to various reasons. Therefore, the x-ray instruments used now are actually an old model.

In any case, if there is a living thing in the mine vein, you must take it out quickly. Judging from the results obtained by the life signal detector, the signals sent by the two humanoid objects have become weaker and weaker, and they may die soon.

In order to ensure that there will be no leakage of toxic substances during the "mining" process, the entire hole was separated by partitions made of synthetic materials. Only the rescue team allowed to enter the hole. The exploration work was temporarily interrupted.

The only two laser cutting machines were adjusted. This cutting machine can cut ore in a very precise way. If they are used to cut ore veins, it can avoid damaging the living creatures (or living people) inside.

The laser cutting machine started working, and the buzzing sound of the machine working sounded in the mine. The cold wind outside was still raging, and faintly, the screams of humans came from the cold wind.

After about two hours, the ore veins were cut open, but the first thing that seeped out was water!

Everyone never expected that this would be the case. How could there be so much water in the ore?! And there seemed to be some kind of small creature in the water. People took those creatures up and saw that it was a red soft creature, saying it was a fish, there were no fish fins on it, it was a sea cucumber or sea urchin. It was very smooth and there were no protrusions. It was like a flattened ball.

However, after these red "flat balls" were taken out of the water, they soon began to emit a fishy smell, and then they remained motionless and completely lost their life characteristics.

People threw away the bodies of these creatures and began to salvage the two people in the water.

The man was finally caught, and it was indeed the two missing people. However, when they were caught, the two were already in a deep coma. No matter how they rescued, they did not wake up.

People had to send them to the emergency station, and the doctor at the emergency station was helpless and said that this could only be sent to the hospital in Chang'an, and we did not have enough good equipment here.

Therefore, the garrison troops dispatched a small aircraft with vertical take-off and landing, preparing to send the two people to the nearest large airport, and then transfer from the airport to a large high-speed transport plane, so that they can fly to Chang'an as soon as possible.

People carried the two people onto the aircraft and watched the aircraft disappear into the heavy snow. Among the people who were accompanying him was a person in charge of the garrison troops. He wanted to know what happened that night, and he planned to ask them as soon as the two woke up.

Immediately afterwards, the people who stayed in the mine discovered something strange - the red creatures that had been fished out of the water before actually disappeared mysteriously.

However, people who were digging veins in mines began to get sick for no reason. Many people had red acne on their skin, and some had auditory hallucinations.

These people were carried away and sent to the emergency station for treatment. The doctor could not find out the cause of the disease. It can only be said that they had been in a harsh environment for too long, which may lead to "incompatibility with the local environment". All people with sores and acne received anti-inflammatory drugs from the doctor.

No one believes this statement. After taking anti-inflammatory drugs, the acne not only did not heal, but also continued to become inflamed. As a result, a large number of explorers were unable to continue working. The remaining people could only wear thick protective clothing and continue to stay in the mine.

The superior sent another instruction to ask them to continue digging down, and it would be best to dig out the entire ore vein.

Fortunately, it is the middle of winter, so I don’t feel hot when I wear such thick protective clothing.

However, the more people dig, the more they felt that the ore vein was unusually large. It seemed that they could not dig the bottom.

Moreover, during the excavation process, some strange things were found in the veins from time to time. Various creatures seemed to be "intacted" in the veins. In addition to gophers, mole crickets, and ants, there were also some underground creatures that could not be named. These creatures were all dead.

Most animals embedded in the veins have small eyes or completely degenerates, and seem to be animals that survive in deep strata.

In addition, there are human bones.

Everyone thought this was some kind of fossil community, but the more they digged down, the more they felt creepy.

It is very strange that corpses appear in the ore veins, because most of them are only seen in fossils, and the fossils are covered with ancient organisms, but most of the creatures wrapped in the ore veins are modern creatures, and many of them seem to have just died shortly after they are wet.

When digging further down, a large amount of water appeared in the ore veins, and a strange vibration came from the water surface, as if there was some kind of living thing inside, and this thing was very huge!

The life detector was moved by Lao Han and scanned the things below. Lao Han's face showed a very strange expression: "From the signal obtained by the scanner, this should be some very long creature, a bit like a giant python, but a giant python that can survive in the ore veins... has never been discovered before!"
