Chapter 1124
Chapter 1124
Wuyou Valley was not originally a valley in the Qinling Mountains.
It was a deep valley that was revealed after the earth suddenly cracked after the end of the world.
After being discovered by Shengjing District, it became larger and deeper after artificial expansion.
Today, it is no longer the open-air valley before, but a mysterious area covered by a huge cover.
Entering the valley from the entrance, the eyes are bright and warm. It has long been covered by modern facilities.
But in the center of the valley, the huge pit like a devil's eye seems to be able to swallow everything in the world.
The miners here seem to have gotten used to everything.
They took the elevator to the deep pit with mining lamps in their hands. The huge pit has a diameter of several kilometers. Even if the largest searchlight is used to shine into it, the bottom cannot be seen.
It is unknown how deep it is here, as if it goes straight to the underworld.
Even the most experienced miners need to take a deep breath to calm themselves down when they go down.
There are thousands of such miners in Wuyou Valley!
They carry tools and oxygen bottles like ants.
There are hundreds of elevators, some go down here, and some come up there.
They carry a huge special bag with them, and when they come up, the bag emits a special blue light in the dark.
Someone came over to the cave and took the ore they dug and put it on the assembly line.
Finally, these ores will be transported to Xuelong City by train, and after a series of processing, they will be supplied to the headquarters of Shengjing District [Shengjing City].
The miners here have long been numb.
They work every day like ants.
Because this is their only remaining value, otherwise they can't get food and survive.
The people sent here are all ordinary people who have been detected to have no talent for awakening superpowers.
There are almost no professional miners. Their task is to use their lives to go down to the unknown depths and then dig this rare glowing ore from the huge wall.
Almost every day, someone goes crazy in the fear of the abyss, and someone falls into the abyss and dies.
But no one cares about this, because everyone who comes here knows that they will either die in the freezing cold blizzard outside, or die in the terrifying abyss sooner or later.
Live, live like a dog.
The meaning of their lives is only to live, nothing else.
There is no shortage of armed Longming Guards around this huge mine, and they look at everything in front of them indifferently.
Any miner who has the idea of resisting will be shot to death by them.
And this kind of lunatic often appears.
But as long as one is killed, the cycle of this kind of lunatic will always be extended.
Under the ground thousands of meters deep, the dark and tens of thousands of meters long deep pit wall, one by one ant-like miners holding chisels in their hands, are digging hard for the ore inlaid like pearls on the wall.
A young miner with a thin face and numb eyes chiseled a piece of ore hard.
He stared at the large piece of ore in his hand with a light blue light, thinking: This is probably some kind of highly radioactive ore! Maybe I won't die in the abyss, but will be radiated by it, turning into a monster and dying miserably.
At this moment, a creepy cry seemed to ring in his ears.
"Hiss--"
The instinct of survival brought him fear of the unknown, and the miner looked around in panic.
But there was only darkness all around, and he could only determine the position of the miner who was as small as him through the little light in the distance.
"Hiss--"
This time the sound was closer.
The miner swallowed his saliva, and the fear in his eyes became stronger.
"Is... what is there?"
Soon, he heard other sounds, which were "clicking" sounds made by something stuck on the wall.
He realized that something was approaching rapidly.
The extreme fear made him take off the mining lamp on his head and shine it on the endless abyss below him.
"Fuck you! Get out of here!"
The extreme fear brought extreme anger, and he mustered up his courage and roared.
However, when he saw the thing clearly, the extreme fear overwhelmed his anger again.
On the wall of the abyss, a seven or eight meter long insect was sticking to the wall, looking up at him.
It was a giant centipede-shaped monster, with hundreds of thick limbs clinging to the wall, and a long and thin mouth on its head.
It had no eyes, but the young minerBut I always feel that it is "looking" at me.
"Ahhhhh!!!!"
The young miner screamed in fear, and he desperately sent a signal to the people above.
"Pull me up, pull me up! There are monsters, there are monsters here!!!"
Before he finished speaking, the giant centipede rushed over, and its slender mouth opened like a petal, and became four petals, each of which was covered with sharp barbed teeth.
The elevator was controlled by the people above, and the miners were not allowed to go up at all if they did not mine enough ore.
At this time, the small leader in charge of the elevator was sitting in a small white aluminum alloy house, crossing his legs, blowing the oil heater, and holding a novel in his hand leisurely.
This kind of old-time work has become a rare form of entertainment for the lower class at this time of energy shortage.
Suddenly, the miner's cry for help came from the intercom of the No. 58 miner's machine.
The person in charge sneered disdainfully, "Another crazy one!"
He didn't want to pay any attention to it. At most, the guy would fall into the abyss and be smashed to pieces, or feed the unknown creatures that might exist underground, which would save them the trouble of dealing with it.
It is common for miners who enter the abyss to become mentally disturbed, and the people here have long been accustomed to it.
But just as the person in charge continued to indulge in the classic plot in the novel, a very creepy sound came from the intercom.
"Crack-Crack-"
The miner's scream ended briefly, but the sound of chewing and gnawing bones did not end.
The person in charge swallowed his saliva and looked out the window cautiously.
Outside, there is also the office of the captain of the Longming Guard. If there is an accident in the mine, you need to report to that person.
The person in charge thought of the scary officer and immediately shook his head.
"It's just a death, just pretend it didn't happen."
"Even if there are some strange creatures underground, they will definitely leave after they are full. There are plenty of miners anyway."
But soon, he couldn't pretend nothing happened.
Because the rows of intercoms on the table were flashing wildly.
The screams and the creepy roars of the monsters flooded into his ears like a tide.
