Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Underground River
"But is it really good to walk around like this?" Zhou Zhengqi was obviously a little uneasy, "If you go casually, you may get lost, not only will you not find that pervert, but you will also be in danger." β
"But we finally found this place, why don't we explore it carefully?" Li Xiabing was reluctant to give up this opportunity, "Why don't you go back and call someone now?"
"It's not been a long time, that pervert shouldn't have gone far, let's try our luck!" Zhou Zhengqi said.
"Then let's take a gamble and see if we can get in. Li Xiabing said.
"Okay, the one in the middle!" Zhou Zhengqi chose a path, "I hope it's right." β
"Okay, I accept your choice. Li Xiabing agreed.
The two walked together towards the fork in the road, but fortunately they soon came to the end of the roadβa dead end.
"Looks like my guess isn't accurate!" Zhou Zhengqi said.
"Just know you're an unreliable guy. Li Xiabing said sarcastically, kicking the wall.
"It seems that I chose the wrong one, go back to the three forks in the road and choose another one, we should still be in time. Zhou Zhengqi said.
"Well, listen to you. β
The two returned to the three-way road again, and Zhou Zhengqi began the second choice.
"On the right, hope is right. Zhou Zhengqi prayed.
"If you're wrong, I'm not done with you. Li Xiabing said deliberately, "I just said that I had delayed a lot of time." β
This time the luck of the two was not bad, and it seemed that they had chosen the right path, but the road was particularly long, and the two had to walk for half a day.
"Looks like I made the right choice. Zhou Zhengqi said.
"Hey, who knows such a long way?" Li Xiabing said.
"Ahh Zhou Zhengqi said.
"What? It's a labyrinth, it's a labyrinth. Li Xiabing said.
"This time, you come and choose the road!" Zhou Zhengqi said.
"How can this pervert build such a big labyrinth. Li Xiabing was a little puzzled, "It's still on the right!"
"Yes!"
Soon the two of them came to a door, and through the crack of the door they could hear the sound of the sea.
"Do you feel like it's noisy here?" asked Li Xiabing.
"Actually, I feel the same way, but it's ......"
"What do you want to say?"
"Why is there a sound of water running outside?"
"Could it be sea water outside?" Li Xiabing guessed.
"If it was seawater, this door might be a mysterious door that we couldn't open the first few times, and I didn't think we could go around and get in. Zhou Zhengqi said.
"Let's go another way!" Li Xiabing said, returning to the original fork in the road. Then they took the road on the left, and in a few steps they came to a stream of water.
"Dark River, how can it be here?" Zhou Zhengqi was very surprised when he saw the flow of water.
"This is the Dark River?" Li Xiabing asked.
"Yes, I've seen similar rivers in caves before. Zhou Zhengqi said, "It's just that this kind of river will be very dangerous underneath." β
"I remember swimming this river before. Li Xiabing said, "It shouldn't have been a problem in the past. β
"Swimming through this kind of dark river, you're not kidding, are you?" Zhou Zhengqi said, "This kind of river not only has a turbulent current, but there are also some unknown creatures in the water, which can hurt people." β
"But they didn't hurt me. Li Xiabing said confidently.
"Shall we swim in?" Zhou Zhengqi asked.
"Why swim in, find a raft for rafting!" Li Xiabing said, and then saw a raft tethered to the dark river.
"Let's take a risk with this!" Li Xiabing said to Zhou Zhengqi, "This must be very exciting." β
"Actually, you remind me of a person. Zhou Zhengqi said
"Alone, I can't imagine that I am so attractive. Li Xiabing said.
"Remember the person who successfully killed Yang Xing!" Zhou Zhengqi reminded, and this person was Li Xiabing.
"How could I not remember what caused a sensation in the city. Li Xiabing said, "Why did you suddenly mention this matter now, I remember that it has been a long time, but a wicked person like Yang Xing is innocent." β
"I think you are more and more similar to the mysterious woman who assassinated Yang Xing, she really looked like a ghost that day. Zhou Zhengqi said, "We police officers usually don't dare to provoke Yang Xing, but she is so decisive, we have to admire her." β
"I'm not her, you think too much, maybe that guy is a soul who wants his life. Li Xiabing said, "The woman in white that day was like a female ghost. β
Judging from her clothes and movements, she does look like a female ghost, but she is not a female ghost. Zhou Zhengqi said.
"Alright, let's untie the raft and let's see where this darkness leads. Li Xiabing said.
The two got on the raft and untied the rope that held it to it. Sure enough, it was dark, the water was faster than the average river, and the raft was moving faster and faster.
"Aren't you afraid?" asked Zhou Zhengqi.
"Don't be afraid, it's still very exciting. Li Xiabing said.
"Look ahead!" Zhou Zhengqi reminded.
I saw that the river suddenly widened, and the water gradually became slow.
"Let's row!" Li Xiabing said.
"Still rowing?"
"The water is suddenly so slow, it's too slow without rowing. Li Xiabing said.
"It reminds me of rafting in the past. Zhou Zhengqi said, "The water is turbulent and there are so many stones, it's really exciting to think about." β
"Look ahead!" Li Xiabing said.
Suddenly, the river narrowed again, and the current became very turbulent again.
"It's not really like drifting here!" Zhou Zhengqi said.
"You're right. β
"This pervert actually lives in this kind of place. Zhou Zhengqi complained.
"Ready to go downhill!" Li Xiabing said.
The raft rushed down a slope that sloped nearly 45 degrees, and the water splashed both of them.
"It's fun!" Li Xiabing shouted.
"It's okay, my clothes are all wet. Zhou Zhengqi said, looking at the uniform on his body.
"I said, why don't you wear civilian clothes after work? Li Xiabing complained.
"Oh, I don't want to change at all. Zhou Zhengqi said, "There is only one week, and I can only race against time." β
"There's a waterfall!" Li Xiabing's intuition was very keen, and she heard the sound of a waterfall.
"What?" Zhou Zhengqi shouted.
"This dark gap is still very large, and it is still good to use it to generate electricity. Li Xiabing said.
"It's just that no one wants to fix this stuff in the dark. Zhou Zhengqi said.
"Sit down, and when you go down the waterfall, you have to pose well, otherwise you will get hurt. Li Xiabing said.
The two men took each side, grabbed the raft firmly with both hands, and quickly rushed down the waterfall.
The slope of the water is more than 60 degrees, and it is no different from a waterfall.
At this time, Zhou Zhengqi's mobile phone rang It was Nie Yan who was calling.
"Hey! Mom!" Zhou Zhengqi said hello.
"Zhengqi, why haven't you come back so late?" asked Nie Yan.
"I'm out there, so I probably won't be going back today. Zhou Zhengqi said that after staying in the secret passage for so long, he didn't feel that the sky was getting darker and darker at all.
"Then you take care of yourself. Nie Yan said, "Don't let me worry outside. β
"No, it won't!" Zhou Zhengqi quickly hung up the phone.
"Why didn't you tell her what we were doing?" Li Xiabing asked.
"When I say that, she only worries more. Zhou Zhengqi said, "The death of her father hit her very hard, and she couldn't suffer any more blows." β
The water was getting faster and faster, and Zhou Zhengqi felt a little nervous.
"I have a bad feeling. Li Xiabing said.
"Bad feelings?"
"I feel like the current is going down all the time, and we're going down to a depth close to the bottom of the sea. Li Xiabing said.
"According to you, that pervert lives at the bottom of the sea?" Zhou Zhengqi asked.
"It should be, or why is it so difficult to find him?" Li Xiabing said.
"This guy really tried everything he could to avoid being pursued. Zhou Zhengqi said.
"Since it is possible to build a train tunnel under the seabed, it is also possible to build a secret room under the seabed. Li Xiabing said.
"Look ahead!" I saw that there was ground in front of me, and it seemed that the dark river was coming to an end.
"Where is this water going?" Li Xiabing muttered.
At this time, the two noticed a drain not far from the river bank.
"There could be sea water outside. Zhou Zhengqi guessed.
"Hopefully we can find him. Li Xiabing muttered.
At this moment, the mysterious man was preparing to violate Lu Rou, and Shen Zifeng had already been beaten unconscious.
"Brother Zifeng, wake up!" Seeing that Shen Zifeng was knocked unconscious, Lu Rou was very distressed.
"This guy just can't help himself, he wants to go against me again and again, and in the end he can only end up like this. The mysterious man said.
"You are not allowed to say that about him!" Lu Rou shouted.
"It's hard to protect myself, and I'm still in the mood to care about him. The mysterious man said.
"I'll fight with you!" Lu Rou picked up a wooden board and hit the mysterious man.
"Just because you still want to do it with me!" The mysterious man said with a smile.
"Give me back my freedom!" Just as the plank was about to hit the mysterious man, the mysterious man grabbed the plank with one hand and instantly split the board in half. After that, he kicked Lu Rou to the ground.
How could Lu Rou, who had never fought before, withstand this kick? Soon fainted.
"It's good, both of us are unconscious, just let me enjoy it. The mysterious man said, and began to move his hands and feet on Lu Rou's clothes.
Before he could strip off his clothes, Shen Zifeng stood up and limped towards the mysterious man.
"It's so strong! You can still move like this. The mysterious man said, "It seems that the force used just now was not strong enough. β
"Even if I die, I will fight with you. After speaking, Shen Zifeng ignored the pain in his body and rushed towards the mysterious man.
"You're looking for death!" The mysterious man kicked Shen Zifeng directly in the head.
After taking this kick, Shen Zifeng fell directly to the ground.
"You're not going to get up now, are you?" said the mysterious man.
"Someone broke in, someone broke in!" The alarm sounded.
"Looks like they've found me!" muttered the mysterious man, opening the cage and stepping out, "Even if you find here, don't try to catch me!"
Soon, Li Xiabing and Zhou Zhengqi found this secret room and saw many young women imprisoned, Lu Rou and Shen Zifeng were also here.
"Shen Zifeng, Lu Rou!" After seeing the two, Li Xiabing was very excited.
"Don't come here!" Shen Zifeng shouted.
As for what happens next, let's break it down next time.
