I don't know how long it took, Li Xun continued to swim forward frantically, but the more he swam, the more desperate he became, he didn't know how long this road was.

The breath he had held before was quickly gone, and now he only felt that his lungs were hot, as if they were about to crack, and at the same time, a sense of powerlessness began to emerge throughout his body.

Gritting the root of his teeth, the muscles in Li Xun's whole body began to tremble, this is not too much force, nor is it tired, this is a precursor to hypoxic coma.

He knew that if he couldn't breathe any more air, he would be finished.

However, it was dark in the underground river, and he had thrown away the flashlight, so he didn't know how far this underground river was.

Gradually, Li Xun became more and more weak, his legs began to kick the water unconsciously, and his two hands could no longer be raised, only feeling that his head was numb and buzzing, and he couldn't see anything clearly in front of him.

At this moment, Li Xun's mind was chaotic and blank.

"Are you really going to die? instead of being killed by a snake, you were drowned?" After a while, Li Xun didn't even have the strength to move his fingers, but the last thing that flashed in his mind was this thought.

Just when he was about to faint completely, he didn't know if he was hallucinating, and in a daze, Li Xun seemed to see a flickering light, but in an instant, his whole world became dark and he completely fainted.

…………

When Li Xun became conscious again, he found that he was by the river at the gate of Longcheng, and Xu Qianyun was hugging him, looking at him with some disgust, extremely aggrieved.

"What's the matter?" Li Xun subconsciously got up with a grunt, looked around, and found that Lin Qingshan and Lao Xu were standing next to him looking at him with a playful look.

"You saved me? I thought I was dead. Li Xun came to his senses, took a deep breath, and his voice was a little hoarse.

"You almost died, but luckily, at the last moment, Xiao Xu found out, don't you know, since you left, Xiao Xu has been staring at the river, and he didn't even give up when he ran for his life. Lao Xu replied, with words in his words.

"Oh?" Li Xun turned his head to look at Xu Qianyun, and found that the other party was inexplicably blushing, strange in his heart, but said, "Thank you." ”

"No, no thanks. Xu Qianyun didn't dare to look at Li Xun's eyes, but she couldn't help but think about the scene of saving Li Xun just now.

It turned out that when she found Li Xun before, Li Xun was already in a coma, so after rescuing Li Xun ashore, she did not hesitate to perform artificial respiration on Li Xun.

As a result, he didn't know if Li Xun was hungry and thirsty for too long or what's going on, he found that Li Xun's lungs were simply a vacuum aspirator.

As soon as his mouths were matched, Li Xun's lungs began to inhale instinctively frantically, and Xu Qianyun was suffocated in an instant, and he couldn't pick it off even if he wanted to.

Even now, my mouth still hurts a little, but Lin Qingshan, Lao Xu and Lao Niu, who were watching the excitement next to me, laughed to death.

Of course, Li Xun didn't know the twists and turns during this period, he just woke up and felt some sweet fragrance in his mouth, but he didn't think much about it, seeing that Xu Qianyun was a little strange, he couldn't help but look at it twice.

At this glance, Li Xun found that Xu Qianyun's waist was still tied with a jade box wrapped in a plastic bag.

Li Xun's eyes froze instantly, how could the relics be on her?

Xu Qianyun saw Li Xun's gaze, and hurriedly said, "It was Bao Ye who asked me to pretend." ”

Li Xunhu frowned suspiciously: "What's the matter......?" They were all in the water just now?"

At this time, Li Xun noticed that Lao Xu and the others were all wet, carrying a big bag on their backs, as if they were dragging their families with their mouths.

Captain Zhang pretended not to see the jade box on Xu Qianyun's waist, and also pretended not to hear the previous conversation, so he snorted a little unhappily and said, "If we weren't in the water, we would have died a long time ago, you can take a look at the neighborhood and look at Dragon City for yourself." ”

Li Xun turned his head and looked at Long Cheng according to his words, and was immediately shocked.

I saw that at this time, the Dragon City was full of smoke and ruins everywhere, the entire Dragon City was in ruins, and the complete buildings were almost gone.

The previous fight between him and the big snake also caused the Dragon City to be in ruins, but it was only the destruction of the fighting area, but it was not the entire Dragon City.

And look at the cave when I came, how can there be any cave, the entrance of the cave is sealed by rocks, and the cave has collapsed.

'Woo-'

Just looking at it, in a sharp sound of breaking the air, a boulder of more than three meters in length suddenly fell from the top of the cave above, and smashed it on the gate of Dragon City.

"Bang".

The vast city gate, the ancient city gate of the "First City in the World" composed of several Chinese dialects, collapsed in an instant.

Lin Qingshan said with a sad face: "I don't know what's going on, the entire Dragon City suddenly shook. Then the roof of Dragon City began to fall downwards and collapse.

We tried to run into the cave to evacuate, but luckily we didn't have time, because in an instant, the entire ****** collapsed.

This makes us feel a little strange, the Dragon City collapsed because the roof of the cave was already brittle, and it would have collapsed, but the ****** was also collapsing, which was wrong. ”

"Fortunately, the people of Xujiashan Village did a good job in advance, and they spent many years maintaining and reinforcing the roof of the cave.

Otherwise, the scale of the earthquake just now, the top of the entire Dragon City, it is estimated that it will collapse at the same time like a ******, but it seems that it will not last long.

Therefore, in order to avoid being hit by rocks, everyone simply jumped into the underground river, and the three of them shared an oxygen cylinder to dive to escape. ”

Lin Qingshan explained, after finishing speaking, Li Xun suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and for no reason recalled that when he took the relics, he heard a soft 'click' as if he had an illusion.

Is there any relationship between the two?

Captain Zhang seemed to see through Li Xun's thoughts, and snorted coldly in an extremely unhappy tone: "You're not stupid." Hehe, can you take this treasure for nothing? You are blessed alone, let all of us be your burial companions! This master of the dragon city wants to keep all of us here and serve as the gatekeeper of the city. ”

Li Xun frowned, his heart became anxious, he finally understood what the 'click' meant.

This should be the number of tricks in ancient times, and under the box of the relics, there should be a very slight trigger mechanism.

That mechanism should be the self-destruct device of Dragon City, and it is also the true meaning of the phrase "the thief is dead" in front of the relic.

Not a curse, but a warning.

Maybe many people don't understand why it took so long to trigger the mechanism before this dragon city began to self-destruct.

In fact, this is not the so-called glimmer of life left by the person who arranged the organ because of good thoughts, but just an inevitability.

Because, the mechanism also has a time of action.

Generally speaking, the simpler the mechanism, the shorter the duration, and the more complex, large, and linked, the longer the duration.

This mechanism below Dragon City is definitely huge and complex, and the self-destructing mechanism is too slight, as if it were the first minimal initial traction of dominoes.

Then it is passed layer by layer, and the smallest trigger force is constantly increased until the final explosion.

"No, we can't stay here, there aren't enough oxygen cylinders, diving into the water is not the way to do!" )
