Shen Fei shook his head.
Although it was his first time robbing a tomb, he could tell that it was definitely not the sound of running water. Moreover, the tomb was very dry, and it did not seem like there was an underground river.
Could it be…
Shen Fei had an ominous feeling in his heart.
He looked at the torch in his hand.
As expected!
He saw that the flame on the torch had become restless.
The burning trend was a little stronger than before, and it was accompanied by a slight crackling sound.
"Quickly extinguish the torch and cover yourself with a towel. Don't breathe in the air!”Sensing the abnormality, Shen Fei quickly pointed at the torch.
Hearing Shen Fei's words, the few of them quickly covered their mouths and noses.
At the same time, Huang Bo quickly extinguished his torch.
"Shen Fei, is there poison in the air?”Ya Ya also saw the situation of the torch.
Shen Fei had said that the torch could remind them of the changes in the air.
At this moment, Shen Fei also nodded and said,"As far as I know, there are creatures that have been accumulating in many tombs for many years and have adapted to the environment of the tomb. For example, bats might build nests in the catacombs and underground palaces.”
Shen Fei would never forget that Hu Bayi and the others had encountered the bat nest in the tomb in the original novel.
If the bats were frightened and exploded.
With thousands of bats gathered together, even a living person could be eaten up.
What was even more terrifying was that the nitrogen gas produced by the bat feces was a highly toxic fuel. Not only would it be ignited, but it would also be fatal if it was inhaled in excess.
Could it be that the previous archeological team died like this?
However, he had to verify it with his own eyes before he could know what was going on.
Therefore, Shen Fei adjusted the flashlight to a slightly dimmer light and then tiptoed into the arch.
As soon as he entered, Shen Fei realized that the narrow tomb passage around him had disappeared.
In its place was a large natural cave.
The cave was very wide, with two sides at least ten meters wide. Looking forward, there was a flat road. After more than 20 meters, it led directly to a deeper tunnel.
After seeing the situation around him, Shen Fei realized that the sounds from before had become more frequent.
Shen Fei immediately became alert. At the same time, he raised his flashlight and looked up.
The ceiling of the cave was illuminated by the flashlight. When he saw the situation above clearly, even he felt a chill down his spine.
Bats!
A large number of bats!
He saw that there were indeed countless bats hanging upside down on the ceiling.
Each of them was the size of a human face.
These bats hung upside down, their sharp teeth chilling anyone who saw them.
When they saw this, the audience exploded.
"F * ck! Why are there so many bats here?”
"With so many bats gathered here, the feces produced can feed two natural gas fields, right?”
"Fortunately, Shen Fei is cautious enough. If he rashly went in and disturbed these bats, he would probably be eaten alive, right?”
"Idiot, although bats are small beasts, they only eat insects.”
"You're the idiot. Those are ordinary bats. Look, these bats are as big as your head. Besides, hadn't they heard of the existence of those vampire bats in the Amazon rainforest?”
At the same time, Yaya's voice came from behind him.""Shen Fei, what's the situation inside?”
Upon hearing the sound, Shen Fei forcefully calmed his violent heartbeat before carefully retreating.
However, when he took a step back, he realized that his feet were sticky.
Looking down, he saw that the ground was covered with grain-like things. The stench that was emitted could even be smelled by him when he covered his mouth and nose with a towel.
It was feces!
Large amounts of bat feces covered the entire ground of the cave.
After regaining his senses, Shen Fei gently retreated and said,"Good news and bad news. The good news is that we are on the right path. If we continue walking forward, we might run into the archeology team. The bad news is that I finally know how that archeologist died. If we don't leave this place quickly, we'll end up like him.”
"This is a bat nest. It's full of bats and bat droppings! If I hadn't extinguished the torch just now, the entire cave might have been lit on fire!”
Huang Lei and the others turned pale when they heard this.
Because they had never seen such a situation before!
At this time, Shen Fei stopped scaring them and directly moved aside to let them see for themselves.
"I'll go take a look!" Huang Bo was the first to muster up his courage. After he turned around, the other three also entered.
However, when they saw the situation inside, they were all stunned on the spot.
He could see the densely packed bats that were still making sounds with their mouths open. Especially the number of bats, it made people feel cold.
"Oh!"
Ya Ya was about to shout when Shen Fei already knew that this would be the result. He covered her mouth from behind.
Then, he gestured for them to step back softly.
When they finally left, Huang Bo could not help but say,"Why are there so many bats here?!”
Before Shen Fei could say anything, Huang Lei said directly,"I've done a similar investigation before. Bats seem to like shady caves. They chose the east side in winter, and would hide during the day and come out at night in summer.”
"If I'm not wrong, these bats might have adapted to the living environment here. However, based on the current time, they should still be hibernating. If the bats were frightened, they would definitely attack all the creatures around them.”
Huang Lei's analysis made Shen Fei look up to him.
He didn't expect Huang Lei to know so much about bat-like creatures.
"Shen Fei, you said you knew how the archeologist died. What do you mean?" Huang Lei asked.”
"It's bat feces." Shen Fei pointed at his feet.
"Bat feces, isn't that a type of medicinal herb?”Fatty Deeny said after recalling for a while. She remembered that the bat feces was called Night Bright Sand, which was more effective in clearing heat and detoxification.
Shen Fei sighed and said,"It's true that it's a medicinal ingredient, but with such a large amount of feces gathered in the grotto, it would be harmful." This was because bat feces were not only medicinal herbs, but they could also produce nitrogen. This kind of nitrogen gas is not only poisonous, but it can also be used as fuel. If we had brought a torch in just now, it might have directly detonated the entire cave.”
Hearing this, the few of them shivered.
Recalling that the ground of the grotto was covered in a layer of feces, they were glad that they had listened to Chen Fei.
"What's with the poisonous gas?" Ya Ya still didn't understand.
Shen Fei then said,"Because nitrogen is a poisonous gas. If it is inhaled in excess, it will cause acute lung swelling." If it was serious, it might take ten minutes to die.”
"So when I saw that archeologist earlier, I found out that he died of suffocation due to his swollen lungs. Now, it seemed that he might have accidentally entered the bat nest and inhaled a large amount of nitrogen, causing the illness to act up. In the end, he died in the tomb before he could escape.”
