Chapter 34: Underwater Escape (I)

?

Yuan Shuai leisurely woke up from the shoulder of the flame mandrill carrying him, and saw that Yuan Shuai finally returned safely** Everyone was relieved, it seems that Yuan Shuai's plan for this chain of turning the tiger away from the mountain and luring the snake out of the 'hole' is good, and now Nangong Fu wants to catch Yuan Shuai again, then they can only destroy the sealing circle set by Yuan Shuai first, and of course, they have to face the anger of the Red Flame Beast that has begun to resume operations.

Thinking of this, Yuan Shuai finally vented all the unhappiness in his previous stomach, they had been in the plan of Nangong Fu all along, and now Yuan Shuai and they finally escaped from the clutches and ran wildly towards the road they came from.

Since they returned to the main hall where they had just come, since there was no order and '' control from Nangong Fu, the wooden armored monsters standing in place were no longer afraid like machines without power supply.

"We can't let these terrifying wooden armor monsters be another party to the disaster, and by the way, I will also give Nangong who is chasing after me a 'big gift'. Saying that, Yuan Shuai placed thunder charms under the pillars of the main hall, and after everything was done, they returned to the previous underground tunnel.

Coming to the fork in the tunnel at the beginning, Yuan Shuai temporarily stopped his footwork, the reason is very simple, because if they go up, they can escape from the underground palace and return to the Loulan Palace, but it has been surrounded by terrifying marching ants, and Nangong Fu is afraid that he will also anticipate Yuan Shuai's escape route, who knows what new mechanism he will arrange in the ancient city of Loulan, so the tunnel leading to the ground is absolutely impossible to go.

"Then what should we do, we can't advance now, and the enemy behind us will catch up at some point, and if we go on like this, aren't we being flanked by the front and back again. Bai Jin said.

"Well, I'm right, we can't move forward or backward now, and waiting in place is not an option, so I think we'd better try to find it

A new way out. As he spoke, Yuan Shuai pointed to another unknown tunnel at the fork......

The tunnel leading to the left is dark and humid in the depths, and the further you go in, the more humidity the air becomes, which is in stark contrast to the underground 'cave' where the Red Flame Beast is located.

After walking for about half an hour, Yuan Shuai speculated that with Nangong Fu's strength, he should have escaped the threat of the Red Flame Beast, and now he was afraid that he was rushing in the direction of Yuan Shuai's escape, and the Thunder Talisman in the main hall might delay Nangong Fu for a long time, but they still couldn't be careless.

Coming to the end of the tunnel, however, to the great disappointment of Yuan Shuai and the others, there was a dead end in front of them, and there was only a clear pool of water in a huge 'cave', where they stayed quietly.

"It's a dead end, and it seems that the only way out of this underground palace is through us. Gao Ya said as she sat down on the ground on the verge of collapse.

"Don't be discouraged and elegant, you must know that Ah Jin and those dead brothers are watching us from heaven, and our hope in them must not fall here. ”

"Captain Yang is right, you must know that there is no endless road, in my opinion, there should be an exit from the underground palace here, but we haven't found it yet. Saying that, Yuan Shuai leaned down and looked at the only clear pool of water in the 'cave'.

"Brother Yuan, is there anything special about this water?" the girl asked on the side.

"You can see that the water is clean and clear, and you can see that it is not a stagnant water, and if it is stagnant water, it should be muddy and turquoise, so I deduce that there should be an underground channel under this pool that leads to the outside. Yuan Shuai said, scooped up a sip of water, put it in his mouth, and only felt that the water was cool and sweet, as if he had drunk it somewhere.

"Do you mean that we can escape from this underground palace by diving underwater, following the underground river?" Xia Molei asked.

"I'm not 100% sure if I can get out, so I'll dive into the pool to find out the truth first, and everyone must be extra careful during my absence. ”

Yuan Shuai took out the water avoidance charm and flipped backwards for two and a half weeks into the water, and everyone on the shore cheered for Yuan Shuai with a perfect score of ten points, and as soon as he entered the water, the water avoidance charm automatically held up a protective cover to isolate Yuan Shuai from the water.

With this protective cover, even Yuan Shuai, who can't swim, can walk freely in the water, about fifty meters of diving, Yuan Shuai's feet finally stepped on the hard ground, looking up, only to see the surrounding dark one, only there is a faint light on the water overhead.

"It seems that the water in this pool is 'quite deep', and I don't know if there is an exit here. Yuan Shuai guessed as he took out the gossip mirror to illuminate it.

A clear light shot out of the protective cover of the water amulet, illuminating the dark bottom of the pool around him, and Yuan Shuai drove the simple "submarine" to find the entrance to the underground waterway.

The entire waterhole was about the size of a football field, and Yuan Shuai walked around it for ten minutes before he turned around, but after going around the hole, he didn't find any passages or 'holes' that resembled an exit.

"Am I mistaken, there is no underground sewer connected here, but why is the water in the pool so clear?"

Just when Yuan Shuai was a little suspicious, a pale and swollen arm gradually stretched out from the soil at the bottom of the pool, and as soon as this arm touched Yuan Shuai's water avoidance charm protective cover, it immediately retracted like a fire, but this small move was still felt by the gossip mirror in Yuan Shuai's hand.

A buzzing alarm sounded, and Yuan Shuai found that the calm waterhole was not as peaceful as it seemed on the surface, only to see a burst of mud under his feet, and then a water ghost wearing an ancient desert costume came out of the dirt.

Yuan Shuai once encountered a large number of water ghosts transformed by the victims at sea, but they were all ** have decayed and disappeared, but the soul in the body is still doing evil, but the water ghost in front of Yuan Shuai does not know that it has been dead for hundreds of years, but judging from the clothes that are vaguely recognizable on its body, it seems to be the clothes of the ancient residents of Loulan.

However, it has been hundreds of years since the corpse of the 'yin' has not yet decomposed, and his soul is '' and controlling its 'flesh' body to continue to do evil, which can't help but Yuan Shuai feels a chill.

The water ghost was pale and rotten, and its two empty 'holes' and 'holes' were staring directly at Yuan Shuai in the protective cover, and it opened its mouth and made a muddy sound to crawl towards Yuan Shuai.

"I rub you think you're Sadako, you dare to run out under the water and be scary!" Yuan Shuai hurriedly took a few steps back, raised the demon mirror on the gossip mirror, and shone on the water ghost's body.

A dazzling golden light penetrated the water surface and 'shone' on the water ghost, causing a burst of bubbles on the water ghost's body, and Yuan Shuai knew that it was the smoke formed by the "melting" of the demon mirror.

The water ghost turned around in panic and fled into the distance, but how could Yuan Shuai let it escape, and hit the water ghost with a primary water balloon, and the fleeing water ghost was suddenly knocked over by the water balloon and struggled to let out a wordless roar.

Yuan Shuai swam over and took out the Demon Suppression Tower from his arms, and wanted to subdue this water ghost who didn't know how many years he had been in the waterhole, but the water ghost seemed to sense the power of the Demon Suppression Tower, so he struggled to get up from the ground and ran towards a rock.

Yuan Shuai followed closely behind and covered the water ghost who wanted to escape with the Demon Suppression Tower, and after a golden light, the water ghost's body was already unable to move, and then it began to shrink gradually, until it was sucked in by the Demon Suppression Tower.

Yuan Shuai breathed a sigh of relief, looked around, and suddenly felt that there was a faint stream of water flowing behind the huge rock, this discovery immediately made Yuan Shuai excited, since there is a flow of water, it means that there must be a channel behind this rock that leads directly to the underground waterway, and even connects to the river on the ground. Thinking of this, Yuan Shuai immediately excitedly took out an earth-based spirit rune, wanting to break through the blocked rock.

On the waterhole, Xia Molei and others were anxiously waiting for Yuan Shuai's news, but twenty minutes had passed, and Yuan Shuai still hadn't surfaced, which made everyone pinch a cold sweat for Yuan Shuai's comfort.

"No, I'm going down to see Brother Yuan's situation. The girl who knew the 'sex' of water wanted to jump into the pool, but Xia Molei grabbed her and persuaded her, "Don't do stupid things, girl, we have to believe Yuan Shuai, in case you go down and encounter danger, then Yuan Shuai will definitely blame himself very much when he knows it." ”

"But Brother Yuan, he ......"

The girl's voice did not fall, only to hear a dull explosion from the pool, and then after a while, Yuan Shuai rushed out of the pool, as soon as he came ashore, he immediately retched a few times, remembering that he tasted the taste of the pool water before and felt sweet and cool, and then thought of the swollen and rotten corpse of the water ghost at the bottom of the pool...... "Well, don't tell everyone." ”

"Brother Yuan, great, are you okay. ”

"Ahaha, of course your brother Yuan is fine, just now I just encountered a little trouble, now that the trouble has cleared and I have found the entrance to the underground waterway, I think as long as we go down the underground waterway, we should be able to get out of this underground palace and return to the ground." ”

After that, Yuan Shuai asked everyone to eat the food they carried with them to replenish their strength, and then reduced unnecessary bags as much as possible to reduce the burden, and finally Yuan Shuai divided everyone into two groups, each two people used a water avoidance charm, and Yuan Shuai himself was in a group to be prepared for emergencies at any time.

However, just when everything was ready, suddenly there was a faint roar from the tunnel, and then the entire underground began to tremble slightly, Yuan Shuai was startled and immediately thought that this must be Nangong Fu He triggered the thunder spell he set, and this also showed that Nangong Fu had escaped from the Red Flame Beast's blockade and was desperately chasing after Yuan Shuai.

"The enemy is about to discover our traces, so everyone hurry up and follow me to commit suicide by jumping into the lake...... Oh, don't you dive into the water together, saying that Yuan Shuai took the lead and plunged into the bottom of the water again......"
