Book 2 - Chapter 5 Dead End
"Tick, tick."
As she walked further and lower, the narrow stone wall was close to her eyes, and she didn't know if it was an illusion, Liu Baibai felt as if the air was a little thinner, and a feeling of suffocation hit her, which made her want to take a deep breath vigorously, and then a damp and lime astringent smell rushed into the tip of her nose and filled the entire nasal cavity.
The unpleasant smell made Liu Baibai frown and asked unconsciously, "Ah Zhao, how is it?" Is there a road down there? ”
"It's so dark, I can't see clearly, there seems to be the sound of water below."
Zheng Jingzhao said while leaning sideways and moving forward with his head slightly bowed, the boy's voice that had not yet changed his voice echoed in the entire corridor, and now the narrowness of the aisle was even difficult to turn around, and several people were holding a small piece of fluorescent stone fragment in their hands to illuminate the road in front of them, and the blue light was reflected on their faces with a faint paleness.
After walking for a while, suddenly the vine in front of Liu Baibai stopped his figure.
"Wait." Zheng Jingzhao, who led the way at the forefront, said.
"What's wrong?" Liu Baibai asked, now the narrow aisle has made her unable to see Zheng Jingzhao further ahead, only to see Manyu walking in front, a protruding stone behind her lightly touching her neck brings a cold and slippery feeling, crowded and damp and suffocating uncomfortable.
Zheng Jingzhao's voice came from the front: "There is no road ahead."
Hearing this, Liu Baibai immediately understood that the feeling of suffocation that had existed since just now was not an illusion, it seemed that several people were locked up in this aisle, but when there was no way behind him, he could only see what happened to Ah Zhao.
"Ah Zhao, have you tried the stone wall in front of you?" Liu Baibai asked, unconsciously raising the fluorite in her hand to see the road ahead, but the narrow aisle made her unable to see anything, and she could only see what she found through Zheng Jingzhao.
In the distance, Zheng Jingzhao's voice sounded, with an echo.
"I'll take a look, there seems to be a water source here at the end, and there is constantly water seeping out from the bottom, and I will use my internal force on the wall to try to see how he transmits."
Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, and Li Lu, who was standing behind him, couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter?" Tell me, can this stone wall be broken? Thick no? Can it work? You know, I'm the fattest of all of them. I can't stand it anymore since I walked with my stomach shrinking just now, can you imagine the feeling of squeezing my flesh all the time on the front and back stone walls!? I feel that I am the roast meat in the baked cake, and the extreme in the roast meat is tightly sandwiched. ”
Hearing Li Lu's words, several people couldn't help but laugh, Liu Baibai could fully imagine Li Lu's current situation of being squeezed in the middle. Even if you can't see it, just listening to him make it funny.
"Poof."
Zheng Jingzhao stood sideways and punched Li Lu with a smile with one hand, and a crisp echo sounded in the corridor. "Don't make a fuss about big fat, seriously. I just got distracted and didn't catch the news that came back from the past. ”
As soon as he heard that he had done something bad, Li Lu immediately said: "Ou, okay, okay, I don't speak, I don't speak." "If it weren't for the fact that Li Luyi was stuck there by the stone wall now, he couldn't move. Otherwise, Liu Baibai knew that he would definitely raise his hand to cover his mouth just by listening to the voice.
The entire hallway fell silent again, except for the constant "ticking" of water droplets in front of it.
Zheng Jingzhao opened his mouth and said: "Well, I found that my internal force has not always felt like a stone wall, as if the speed slowed down after being transmitted to a place almost three feet thick, as if entering another surface. If I'm not mistaken, I remember that there were a lot of dark rivers or lakes under the cave, and maybe we are at the bottom of the lake or river now. “
This is really good news, at least the front is not all a dead end, Liu Baibai thought about it and replied with a little excitement in his voice: "If Ah Zhao is not wrong with you, then we will be saved." At least not to be trapped here. “
Li Lu continued: "Ah, Ah! Do you mean it's about three feet thick? According to my experience with blasting just now, three feet thick is almost three blasting talismans. "The voice had a tone that sounded to me." Are you sure? Zheng Jingzhao's voice was full of suspicion and said, "Won't it collapse again?" “
Li Lu, who was embarrassed by the coconut elm, said weakly: "Hey, you have to believe me!" That was an accident just now! Now I'm an experienced person! “
Zheng Jingzhao's voice was full of reluctance: "Okay then! Trust you. “
Liu Baibai, who could hear it behind, smiled at each other with pleasure. "I'll put Luo!" Zheng Jingzhao reminded him, and he could hear that Liu Baibai's eyes were fully prepared. "When you wait for me to say three, remember to take a deep breath first!"
Li Lu urged: "Okay, okay!" I know, but hurry. "Ready, one-two-three."
As Zheng Jingzhao's words fell, while several people took a deep breath, there was a loud bang, and a huge column of water instantly erupted and hit the body vigorously, and the water level at the bottom of the feet rose rapidly.
Several people looked at each other back and forth, and immediately walked in the opposite direction towards the place where the water jet was sprayed. The resistance of the water hit the body and made it difficult to move forward, Liu Bai supported the stone wall with his white hand and walked forward with difficulty, and finally saw the hole that Zheng Jingzhao exploded, and the water continued to shoot out and finally got into the water. In an instant, all resistance was invisible.
Liu Baibai closed his breath and raised his head to look at the underwater world in front of him, the huge deer and fox aquatic plants in the dark underwater world swayed at the bottom of the water, exuding a little light like fireflies, all kinds of aquatic plants were beautiful like forests, and some harmless small floating fish shuttled between them, looking up and looking up, the lake seemed to be covered with a layer of blue-purple fluorescent marshes connected together, and it was impossible to see what was above the lake, the entire bottom of the lake was very deep and large.
There was a sound in my head. At the same time, she also swam to Liu Baibai's side, her hair flowing in the water, and said excitedly: "Liu Liu, there is a thousand-year-old fennel grass in front of you!" "It's really fake!" When he heard this, Liu Baibai's whole eyes lit up.
That's a good thing, it's full of treasures! His rhizomes can be used as pills, the gel in his stems and leaves can be drawn, his leaves can be eaten, and he can be made into all kinds of dishes, boiled, stir-fried, or anything.
The most important thing is that fennel grass is the main material of the elixir, which has the effect of replenishing the aura or increasing the power of the talisman, which can be said to be a life-saving pill for monks when fighting, and sometimes because of this small elixir, the battle situation can be directly reversed.
Generally speaking, it is very good that fennel grass can grow up to 100 years, because it is very harsh on the growth environment and cannot be artificially cultivated, and fennel grass will grow next to a kind of associated baby stone grass, which will absorb the nutrients of fennel grass at the moment of maturity and make it die instantly, and baby stone grass itself has no effect.
Now I hear that there is a millennium-old fennel grass! This is a huge wealth for them, the little radish heads who have just entered the fairy road!!
Liu Baibai immediately swam to the front with the vine to meet Zheng Jingzhao and them, the huge underwater world is soft and smooth aquatic plants brushing the cheeks with an itchy feeling, through the aquatic plants into the eye is a patch of pearl fennel in the distance, a small plant like a clover grass into a patch, pale pink one by one condensed with small flower buds, really a thousand years of pearl fennel!
Zheng Jingzhao and Li Lu also swam here, and the icy lake water brought up the Taoist robe and fluttered in the water, Zheng Jingzhao said. "In vain, I guess this piece of pearl fennel should be guarded by some demon beast to grow so well, and now that demon beast seems to have gone out to hunt, let's take the opportunity to pick some and go!"
Hearing Zheng Jingzhao's words, Liu Baibai was a little hesitant, this piece of pearl fennel can't be a trap, right? I remember that in the novels I used to read, there seemed to be something wrong with this situation, but I was too sorry for myself to see that the millennium fennel grass was not picked, after all, if the immortal cultivator still cared about plundering and being plundered, it would be too delicate, and things had to be fought for by themselves! "Let's go! Smaller than you and Big Fat are responsible for picking, and I and Ah Zhao are more high-level, and the two of us are responsible for vigilance. "Good!"
A few people quickly approached the pearl fennel, and unexpectedly, there was no obstacle, Manyu and Li Lu quickly fell to the ground, took out the medicine hoe and began to collect a few, Liu Baibai saw that there was really no problem, so he turned his head and said to Zheng Jingzhao: "Ah Zhao, I don't think there is any problem, otherwise I will also pick some, we can also be faster." “
Zheng Jingzhao nodded: "Well, you go, it's good to have me here." ”
Liu Bai took out the medicine hoe and aimed at the pearl fennel grass that was optimistic, and quickly picked it down, just holding the moment when he was about to put it away.
As soon as his heart shrank, he sensed the abnormality of the water flow, and Liu Baibai immediately jumped up to the floor, and a water arrow struck several people like a rain curtain, landing on the periphery of fennel grass, and several potholes appeared on the floor in an instant.
As soon as a few people turned their heads, they saw a giant fish that couldn't see through the level and looked at a few people angrily, a huge fish eye like a copper bell, cracked a giant mouth full of sharp teeth, and the whole fish body was actually transparent, and the blood vessels and fish bones were clearly seen, and it was very strange to look at it, and a creepy feeling went straight to the heart, and then several flesh-colored tentacles were strung out behind the giant fish, and the speed was amazing and attacked several people.
"Let's go! Get on it! ”
Liu Baibai shouted while following Zheng Jingzhao, and the two immediately worked together to release a concentrated giant fireball at the giant fish, and the fireball quickly melted into high-temperature hot water in the water.
However, a sharp pain hit his foot less than a foot after he swam up, and Liu Baibai looked down at one of his feet.
At some point, a flesh-colored slick thing wrapped tightly around his ankle. (To be continued.) )
