Chapter 96: Secret Crossing
The water in the ditch finally came ashore, and Sanjiu plunged headlong into the water, continuing to cut the iron fence.
When the water on the shore rose to the ankle level, the golden three fat monster screamed and jumped up, shouting in his mouth: "There is something in the water, bite!" ”
The balls on the stone wall fell into the water, and under the light of the flashlight, their bodies that were originally rolled into a ball immediately stretched out after falling into the water, turning into strange fish with the length of their palms.
There were countless of them, falling from the stone wall layer after layer, and I jumped down the river and swam to Sanjiu, the resistance of the river was not ordinarily strong, and it took a lot of effort to swim to him.
Everyone jumped into the canal, Zhao Wuye swam to the iron fence with the help of his buddies, and Jin Sanpang also swam over with Zhao Ning, if he was attacked by a school of strange fish in the water, it would be useless to use any weapons.
But we forgot that there was also a black demon that also jumped into the river with us, and if it accidentally caught its foot, one of the guys drowned like this.
The iron fence was finally cut open to accommodate Sanpang to pass through, and Sanjiu pushed me in the water, meaning that he wanted me to go out first, but Zhao Wuye's men squeezed me aside and pushed Zhao Wuye out first.
At this time, I didn't have the heart to worry about them, so I let Zhao Wuye, the second was Zhao Ning, and I was third.
I went to pull Sanjiu to get him to follow me, but he pushed me, and we came to the surface, and he pointed to the spot where the iron egg had sunk to the bottom.
I gasped a few times, shook my head, and said, "Leave that thing alone, it's important to save your life!" ”
He whispered in my ear, 'Wait for me,' and forcibly pushed me out of the bar.
I knew he was going to pick up the iron egg. But the iron egg is so heavy, can he get it out alone?
Just as I was hesitating to sneak back to help him, a scimitar flew past me in the face and slashed at the shoulder of one of Zhao Wuye's fellows, who screamed miserably, and the river was suddenly dyed red.
I grabbed the iron fence and refused to leave, turned my head to look, more than a dozen Blazing Female Clansmen swam down from the upstream, Lin Min also wanted to be among them, how did they fall into the dark passage through the fire house?
There is no place to go ashore on either side. When she saw me, she swam towards me. The dagger was shoved back into me just before Sanjiu left, and I had already thought that if she dared to come closer, I would not hesitate to give her a sword.
It's just that I don't think a short sword alone is enough to deal with Lin Min. And he searched all around with his mind. Hopefully there's something nearby that works. Even if it's ...... Is it a python?
Handsome python is nearby?!
My psychic power reached out and made contact with the handsome python nearby, which was coming from upstream. Zhao Wuye's subordinates screamed in the water again and again, the strange fish in the water attacked, we watched a guy being besieged by a school of fish, struggling for a while and becoming a bloody man, this fish seems to only drink blood and not eat meat, and a large group will surround the place where there is blood.
Jin Sanpang was cut by the fish, and the fish were surrounding him, Zhao Ning shook him off and swam desperately into the distance, as if he didn't dare to stay by his side for a second.
Lin Min was getting closer and closer to me at this time, Zhao Wuye's men had already shot to stop them from advancing, and their companions were cut by scimitars, so they were attacked and killed by the fish, and these Blazing Female Clansmen were naturally their enemies.
But the Blazing Female people have excellent water nature, plunged into the river, did not float up for a long time, there were strange fish around them, they could not delay the time, they could only swim desperately upstream while fighting.
The goal of staying on the surface of the river is too obvious, and Sanjiu has not come out for so long, which makes me even more anxious, I really don't worry about him, so I hold my breath and plunge into the water and dive back into the dark hole.
The water level in the cave was already one person high, and I swam past the spot where I remembered the iron egg falling into the water, when suddenly a hand grabbed me in the icy water.
At the same time, that short period of abnormal information reading state started damn at this point......
It was a bloody war, both sides dressed in strange ethnic costumes, the battle was to wipe out the other, the village was burned, and a group of people fled with iron eggs for a long, long time, and finally stopped in a forest with no end in sight.
They built round squares and stone statues, labyrinths and traps underground, and hid iron eggs in the deepest depths, and the war was fought by women on both sides, and very few men did not seem to be from their own people, they were more like slaves.
I used the perspective of a slave, one of whom ended up being brutally turned into a monster by a cruel spell, who forgot his name and everything he had in life, and only knew that he had to guard the secrets of the underworld.
The slaves who were made into monsters were black and white, I didn't expect their backgrounds to be so pitiful, and the methods of the Blazing Girls were cruel enough, they were driven into the primeval forests of Laos by people of another tribe, and built here to store their holy relics underground, but the holy relics were useless and did not see any usefulness.
I woke up in the water, the hand that grabbed me had been released, I surfaced, and the fish swam around me, they didn't seem to be interested in me, and they rushed around me towards Zhao Wuye.
There was a conflict between the Blazing Girl Clan and Zhao Wuye's team, Lin Min's purpose was to come to the Holy Relic of the Blazing Girl Clan, and Zhao Wuye also wanted to get it, they would not share it with each other, so naturally it was inevitable that there would be a vicious fight.
Sanjiu dived up from under the water to breathe, and when he saw me, he leaned towards me, and I hurriedly asked, "Are you injured?" ”
He said, "No, I can't take it." ”
If it weren't for the wrong timing, I really wanted to laugh for a while, he said with a serious face that he couldn't take the iron egg, it was really happy, neither of us was attacked by the strange fish, this is what I was more curious about, it just so happened that we stayed in the dark hole, and we went out when the people outside were defeated.
I secretly informed the handsome python to take advantage of the chaos to swim in, the strange fish here have a deep fear of it, and dare not approach it, I use my mind to communicate with it to see if it can get the iron egg out.
The mouth of the handsome python can even be swallowed by a person, not to mention an iron egg, it finds an iron egg under the water and holds it in its mouth, the upper and lower palate of the python is strong, and it is also large, not to mention two adult men, even four or five adult men It also has the strength.
The two waves of people outside are indistinguishable, and it is said that Zhao Wuye's team is all gentlemen and has weapons. The Blazing Girl Clan will suffer a big loss against them, but the Blazing Girl Clan comes and goes freely in the water, and acts like a fish, so that Zhao Wuye and them can't take the slightest advantage.
"We need to get out of here, too." Sanjiu pulled me into the water.
The water level in the dark hole is constantly rising, if the hole is filled, it will be difficult for us to dive to the water inlet, fighting against the current is definitely a difficult action, and we have to avoid the strange fish in the water, two waves of people fight while going upstream.
We took the opportunity to swim out of the inlet and dive upstream among the strange fish. The handsome python swims in front of us with an iron egg in its mouth. It can come in, which means that there is an exit in the direction of the river.
But when we were able to move on, Sanjiu and I chose to pause. Let the handsome python go out first with the iron egg. We can't leave Jin San Fat behind.
Jin Sanfat is also a tough guy. Chased and bitten by strange fish, he did not participate in the battle, and swam desperately upstream despite the pain. Although Zhao Ning threw him off when he was in danger and fled alone, he still guarded her behind and swam to a safe place, keeping a safe distance from her.
Sanjiu and I surfaced, grabbed his arm left and right, and set him up, the strange fish quickly retreated as we approached it, and Jin Sanpang saw that it was us, panting and laughing.
I spent a lot of physical strength in the water, and he was so tired that he couldn't swim, and my physical strength rose more than one level after changing to a new body.
Zhao Ning was the first to go ashore, followed by Zhao Wuye, this old man is old and his body is quite tough, there are guys to escort him to swim ashore first, and Sanjiu and I dragged Jin Sanfat to follow.
Followed by Lin Min, her water nature is not as good as the Blazing Girl Clan, the war in the water consumed most of her physical strength, it is estimated that she did not expect to have a fight with Zhao Wuye, after going ashore, she gasped badly, and her legs were trembling slightly.
Further behind were Zhao Wuye's buddies and the Blazing Girl clansmen, the momentum of the two sides was still there, but they obviously lacked physical strength, snorting and glaring at each other angrily, but they didn't really make a move.
"No one can take out that thing, so it's better for us to make a truce for the time being." Lin Min spoke first.
"This is their territory, how can I trust you?" Zhao Wuye said.
"If they had a better way, we wouldn't be so embarrassed."
"Okay, truce for now."
Zhao Wuye was happy this time, I always felt that he still had a move, but Lin Min suddenly turned his gaze to me and sneered: "Those traitors have already contacted you, you pretend to be like enough." ”
I looked at her like a neuropathy and said, "If the brain hole is too big, it's a disease, and it needs to be cured!" ”
She smiled nervously and said, "Don't act, the Fire Eye is only available to the Holy Relic Guardians, if they didn't give you the Fire Eye, how did you get out of the Fire House?" ”
I also asked her, "How did you get out?" ”
She didn't bother to bother with me, and said, "It took them hundreds of years to dig a secret tunnel." ”
As she spoke, her eyes glanced at the Blazing Girl behind her, it turned out that she forced me and Sanjiu into the fire house just to kill us, and the secret passage should be the secret compartment where they hid at the top of the passage.
After hundreds of years of digging into the dark road, the guardians have become thieves, so my guess is correct, the Blazing Girl Clan is indeed divided into two factions with different opinions.
I shrugged my shoulders and said, "I didn't reach anyone or agree with me anyway." ”
She suddenly burst out laughing, as if she had heard some joke, and said: "They already know that the traitor sent a black letter to Li Miaoxue, and the black letter is a distress letter from the Blazing Girl Clan, and they are counting on Li Miaoxue to save them, but unfortunately Li Miaoxue is dead, don't you say that you don't know what a black letter is!" ”
There is such a coincidence in the world, the black letter was sent from within the Blazing Girl Clan!
They are asking Li Miaoxue for help, or rather, they are asking for help from my twin sister who has merged with Li Miaoxue, but does she know that the soul in my sister's body is me?
If the spark that is related to their lives and my lives is the sacred relic of the Blazing Girl Clan, the Iron Egg, I don't understand how an iron egg can affect the lives of so many of us!
But there is no doubt that when they wrote the letter, they already knew about the crisis of internal division, and it is likely that they knew that some clansmen colluded with Lin Min to seize the holy relics, so they wrote to me for help.
It's a pity that I came late, and I only saw their corpses, and maybe even before we came, those who refused to cooperate with Lin Min were almost killed, leaving a few powerful ones who escaped with the key fire eye.
However, they still haven't escaped the fate of being killed, and they don't know that the fire eye they protected with their lives has lost its importance because of a dark passage.
While I feel sorry for their lives, I am also furious at what Lin Min has done, and the Blazing Girl who killed the ancient tree, they are the traitors of their own clan!
Today, none of them want to leave here alive, and I secretly made up my mind in my heart, because just now, I found a good helper!
"I think otherwise, if you all refuse to give up that iron egg, you will send two people at a time, and don't say who will get it out for the time being, it matters if you get it out first." I proposed.
Zhao Wuye looked at Lin Min, Lin Min looked at me and said, "You are not allowed to go!" ”
She meant to agree to my proposal, but I couldn't go into the water with anyone else, what was she afraid of? Are you afraid that I will get the iron egg? I fished it out, how is it different from others?
I nodded: "Okay, I won't touch!" ”
I got my assurance, after they rested, they arranged for people to take turns to go into the water, the reason why I proposed this is to clear my suspicion, because there is no iron egg in the dark hole, and it has already been run away by the handsome python!
I just said this to make them think that I really wanted to get that thing, and after the originally selected four people went into the water, Lin Min's eyes were fixed on me.
Zhao Ning saw Lin Min's hostility towards me, her eyes rolled, she didn't know what the hell idea came to mind, in fact, it was not difficult to guess, she wanted to deal with me, and joining forces with my enemy could be done once and for all, Lin Min was probably the best knife in her eyes, so that she could kill me.
It's just that there was no Sanjiu in the first wave of four people, and he was still sitting next to me, so Zhao Ning didn't move, I guess after Sanjiu went into the water, she would find a way to provoke the conflict between me and Lin Min.
But does she have that chance?
Half an hour after the first wave of four-person salvage teams were launched, the four of them entered the sea like mud cows and never returned!
After waiting for another quarter of an hour, people who can't catch things always have to come back to report the news, but none of the four people came back, and the faces of Zhao Wuye and Lin Min are not very good.
I whispered to Sanjiu: "You go down in a while, enter the cave and come out, don't come out in the potential water, don't care about the others." ”
Sanjiu nodded slightly, and sure enough, he was in the second wave, and he left the word 'careful', and went down to the river with the other three.
Of course it was the same this time, the four of them went and the four of them didn't come back, and the faces of Zhao Wuye and Lin Min couldn't be described as ugly.
Lin Min suddenly said to me, "What the hell are you doing? ”
I stared innocently and said, "What the hell am I doing?" Sanjiu may have an accident, I'm going to find him! (To be continued.) )
