Chapter 795: Underwater Cave Theft
After that scream, the water surface of the entire Yao Pond returned to calm, and if it weren't for the blood-red water, no one would have noticed that a big battle had just taken place here.
"I'll go, what the hell just happened?" The fat man didn't know when, he had already returned to everyone's side, and asked in a male duck's voice.
Although he couldn't hear what the fat man was saying, Zhang Meng could guess what the fat man probably meant, but Zhang Meng didn't pay attention to the fat man, but turned his head to look for Ye Jiu's figure.
In the battle just now, Ye Jiu was accidentally caught in the water by a monster in order to save himself, although Lai Zi guessed that Ye Jiu would be fine, but Zhang Meng was still a little worried.
Lai Zi also knew what Zhang Meng was looking for, so he hurriedly patted the fat man's oxygen cylinder and motioned for everyone to follow Zhang Meng and go to Ye Jiu together.
The battle had just stopped, and although the water surface was calm, there was still a trace of blood under the water, and the vision was not very clear.
The three of them could only look for Ye Jiu indiscriminately, but fortunately, after a while, Ye Jiu paddled the water and drilled over by himself.
Seeing Zhang Meng and the others, Ye Jiu just nodded slightly.
Zhang Meng didn't ask anything, after all, it was still not very convenient to go underwater. Seeing that the four of them had returned to the team intact, Laizi gestured to the four of them, signaling them to continue diving and looking for the entrance to the cave underwater.
Because they were underwater, it was inconvenient to speak, so the four of them did not discuss the big battle that had just happened.
However, the four of them searched separately for a long time, but they did not find the entrance to the tomb they were looking for underwater.
At last the fat man's oxygen tank seemed to be insufficient, and he stopped his body and tried to swim up and return to the surface.
Seeing that the fat man was leaving, Zhang Meng and Lai Zi looked at each other.
In the end, Ye Jiu gestured to the three of them, signaling to look for the place where the sound suddenly came out just now, maybe he could find some clues.
Seeing that Ye Jiu was looking for the mysterious voice just now, everyone was a little worried. However, seeing that Ye Jiu had already taken the lead in swimming, Zhang Meng and the others did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly got up and chased after him.
Among the four people, no one is particularly good at diving, and Ye Jiu must never be allowed to go on an adventure alone!
Fortunately, after the monster left, the entire pool was clear again, and the vision in front of him was not as blurry as it was just now. After swimming forward with Ye Jiu for almost five minutes, everyone finally saw a boulder.
Ye Jiu slightly turned his body sideways and leaned on the boulder.
Seeing Zhang Meng, Fat Man and Lai Zi who were following up, he beckoned and motioned for the four of them to work together to move the boulder away.
Because the underwater resistance was too great, Ye Jiu couldn't push the boulder away as usual, and he could only move the boulder in front of him with the joint efforts of the four people.
Seeing this scene, the fat man took a few steps back, wanting to be lazy, but was kicked hard by Zhang Meng.
In desperation, the fat man had no choice but to follow the three of them to move the boulder in front of him. Fortunately, after some hard work, the four of them finally moved the boulder away, and as soon as the boulder was opened, an underwater thief hole suddenly came into view.
Zhang Meng's heart chuckled, thumping wildly, but he didn't expect that the entrance in the parchment roll was really hidden under the Yao Pond.
The four of them did not hesitate, Ye Jiu was in front, Zhang Meng and Fat Man were in the middle, and Lai Zi was in the back, swimming forward.
The underwater thief hole was obviously dug by later generations, and there was no inscription or mural on it, and after swimming for a while, the four of them swam out of the underwater thief hole.
The fat man was the first to come out of the water, threw the empty oxygen cylinder aside, and scolded and said: "What a broken thing, I almost didn't suffocate the fat man, I ......"
"Hehe, you dead fat man, can't you inhale one small puff at a time?" Laizi laughed.
Zhang Meng next to him also sarcastically said: "You really think that the oxygen in this oxygen cylinder will never be able to suck it up!" ”
"Damn, it's not that people with liquid oxygen are too stingy." The fat man muttered dissatisfiedly: "I know that I am fatter than the three of you, and I don't give the fat man a big size." ”
"It's not that there is not enough oxygen in the oxygen cylinder, it's that you are too greedy, oxygen is for life, not for eating." Zhang Meng shook his head, he was speechless for the fat man.
Turning his head and looking around, Zhang Meng was not in a hurry to get on the road, but discussed with Lai Zi and Ye Jiu: "I think we should rest first and eat some food to replenish our body." Wait a while and then continue on your way. ”
"Hmm." The three nodded.
After listening to Zhang Meng's words, the fat man was about to open his backpack immediately, but he touched it and felt empty, and then he remembered that his backpack was dragged away by a monster, and he rubbed his hands with a hippie smile and walked towards Zhang Meng.
Seeing the fat man's evil smile, Zhang Meng knew what the fat man's idea was, he shook his head, distributed the food in his backpack to the fat man, and advised: "Save some food, I don't know what to encounter on the road!" ”
"Yes, yes." The fat man's eyes lit up, and what he took was a gobble meal. While eating, he kept scolding his mother: "Grandma's, I am unlucky to be fat, and I don't know what's going on, the monsters I met along the way, I don't look for other people's troubles, I prefer to find the fat man!" When I meet that strange fish again, I have to make it look good. ”
Hearing the fat man mention the monster, Zhang Meng immediately lost his appetite, turned his head to look at Laizi and asked, "By the way, Brother Laizi, how do you know that the mucus and smell of that thing are poisonous?" Do you know where that thing came from? ”
Hearing Zhang Meng's words, the fat man and Ye Jiu also focused their eyes on Lai Zi.
To be honest, although they fought hard underwater for so long, everyone didn't know what they were dealing with, what it was called.
Seeing everyone's puzzled expressions, Lai Zi put down the compressed biscuit in his hand, took out half a cigarette in his backpack and put it in his mouth, and said thoughtfully while taking a puff of cigarette: "Actually, I'm not sure!" ”
"With your character, even if you can't be sure, you can guess eight or nine......" said the fat man, pouting.
Among the people, the one who knows Laizi the most is, of course, the fat man.
"Huh." Seeing the fat man poking himself, Laizi was also happy, and he said, "This thing should be the legendary water source." ”
"Shui Yuan?" Hearing Lai Zi's words, Zhang Meng raised his head in confusion: "Is this another monster in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas"?" I've never heard of it. ”
"Cut, you know, can you call it a monster?" The fat man smirked and smiled.
Zhang Meng's face darkened, and he was about to grab the food in the fat man's hand, he said angrily: "Give me back the food!" ”
"If you don't give, you won't give." The fat man played tricks.
"Alright, alright." Stopping Zhang Meng and the fat man, Lai Zi frowned, and then explained: "The so-called water source is not something in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", but a record in an underwater tomb that I stole back then. ”
"Oh? So, there hasn't been a single book that has recorded this thing since ancient times? Zhang Meng sighed.
"Hmm." Laizi nodded and said, "If I hadn't seen the record of this thing in a certain water tomb back then, I didn't know that the smell and mucus of this thing would be so strongly toxic. Speaking of which, I haven't seen the real body of the water source clan either. ”
"That's amazing! Brother Laizi, so you can guess it too. Zhang Meng gave Lai Zi a thumbs up: "However, after I smelled the smell of that thing, my head did react a little slowly, if you hadn't pulled me, I'm afraid it would be ......."
"It's just that the smell of this thing is too strong, too different, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to get an idea." Laizi extinguished the cigarette in his hand and said.
"Then you have to turn your head fast, if you change to a fat man, I think ......" Speaking of this, Zhang Meng glanced at the fat man next to him who was still stuffing things into his mouth, and said, "Enough!" ”
"Zhang Quede, you're idle, aren't you? Find the difference. Hearing Zhang Meng slandering himself, the fat man said angrily.
"Be quiet, listen to him." Ye Jiu glared at the fat man coldly and looked at Lai Zi again.
Ignoring the boredom of Zhang Meng and the fat man, Lai Zi continued: "This water source is a holy relic in the water, and it has been there in ancient times. Its deterrent power is far greater than that of whales and sharks, and it can be said to be the overlord of the water, and few aquatic creatures can get close to it. ”
"I see." Zhang Meng sighed: "No wonder even piranhas are afraid of it......"
"Laizi, tell me again, why is this thing here? It's a snow-capped mountain. The fat man said as he munched on it.
"Hehe, you really think I'm a jack of all trades." Lai Zi shook his head helplessly: "That's all I know, as for the rest, I really don't know." ”
"I don't understand." Just when everyone was quiet, Ye Jiu next to him was lightly picked, and asked with a strange expression: "Does this water source clan have natural enemies?" ”
"This ......," Raiko hesitated.
"That's right, when Brother Jiu'er said this, I remembered it, didn't the previous water source suddenly disappear after hearing something?" Zhang Meng turned his head and asked.
The fat man on the side also nodded and said, "But it's not, if it weren't for that strange cry, the four of us would probably be the food in the stomach of the water source." ”
Hearing this, Ye Jiu also added lightly: "That strange cry should be from this tomb......"
Seeing the eyes of the three of them, Lai Zi said to himself: "I really don't know about the natural enemy, but the sudden disappearance of the water source clan is indeed a bit strange. ”
"In other words, you don't know what scared away the sea overlord Shuiyuan?" Zhang Meng's face changed: "What can scare away the water source clan must not be a simple thing, maybe even more terrifying than the water source clan." ”
"I said Zhang Quede, we just escaped from the tiger's mouth, don't be surprised, okay?" Hearing Zhang Meng's words, the fat man hurriedly prayed tremblingly: "Bad spirits, not good spirits!" Bad spirits do not work well! ”
Ye Jiu stood up, put the fast snow knife back into the scabbard, and looked at the road ahead with a cold gaze, without saying a word.
Although Ye Jiu didn't say anything, this expression was firmer than any words.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Meng also hurriedly got up and said: "No matter what weirdness is hidden here, for Ah Chen and Sanbo, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, I will not give up!" ”
