Chapter 64: Undercurrents

"Look, there's a hole in front of there, and I don't know where it leads." Zhao Meng pointed to a hole in front of him and said.

"Well, this hole is the entrance to the tomb, but it's an underground river all around." Bing Yan said as he looked at the treasure map.

"So, let's make a raft and row over." As I spoke, I picked up an axe and chopped down a few bamboos.

"Well, that's the only way to do it." Zhao Meng said that he also came to help, after cutting a few bamboos, I connected the bamboos with thick hemp rope, Zhao Meng was not at ease, and also hit nails, I cut off a bamboo, stood at the front of the bamboo raft, hung a torch, and regarded it as a way to explore.

Zhao Meng and I pushed the bamboo raft into the water, and the ice geese measured the depth of the water, although the water of the underground river is not deep, only about seven or eight meters deep, but it is enough to drown people, and no one knows if there are any monsters in this water.

The raft began to move, and I held on to the hull with one hand and rowed with the oars with the other. It's okay to move forward for a while, and I can't help but feel relieved. I looked around, and then the firelight, I saw that there were many stalactites scattered in this cave, and although I had seen them in museums, I had never seen such a large number of stalactites with such strange shapes.

I was surprised, suddenly Zhao Meng threw something, I couldn't dodge, just hit him, I was about to scold him, but when I picked up the object, I couldn't speak. Oh my God, in front of me is a fine piece of ancient jade, I have had the privilege of going to the world's largest antique market, this kind of ancient jade is almost a sought-after item in the market, and the older it is, the more valuable it is, the largest piece I have ever seen is only the size of a finger, and this piece is the size of a palm.

"Zhao Meng, where did you get this thing?" I said, Zhao Meng scratched his head embarrassedly, and said, "I took it off that corpse." ”

Suddenly, I couldn't bear it, and the jade in my hand fell on the bamboo raft with a "bang", but fortunately it was not broken. I thought there must be something better in this tomb. Taking advantage of the torches, I looked forward, and there was a strange color in front of me, the water was floating, and several corpses were floating towards us.

These corpses were already very badly decomposed, and their faces were very hideous, and they must have been very painful before they died. Seeing their deaths, I couldn't help but feel a sense of nausea, I felt that the jade in my hand was emitting a foul smell, and I suddenly felt like I wanted to throw it out. But I overcame it with my own will. Wrap the jade in a cloth and stuff it into your arms.

Suddenly, I felt a little uneasy underwater, could it be a water ghost, I overcame the fear in my heart, looked at the bottom of the water, I don't know when there were many black shadows under the water, and these black shadows are more and more, I secretly said that it was not good, and quickly said: "Zhao Meng, Bing Yan, look at the bottom of the water." The two of them looked under the water and cried out in dismay.

I heard that something was wrong behind me, and I hurriedly turned my head to look, only to find that the floating corpses just now were gone, as if they had been dragged away by these black shadows. "It's hard to be that, it's hard to be that!" I screamed.

"What the hell is it?" Zhao Meng asked.

"No, no, how could there be piranhas in this place!" I covered my head, unable to believe that there could be such a ferocious animal as a piranha in the water, which was only seven meters deep.

While I was still struggling, I heard the sound of piranha teeth rubbing in my ears, although I couldn't be sure that they were piranhas, but there was no doubt that they must be close relatives. The sound was getting closer and closer, and suddenly, with the splash of water, several piranhas had jumped up, and Zhao Meng hurriedly knocked them out with a shovel.

I didn't dare to be in a daze anymore, I looked around the bamboo raft, and found that there were piranhas all around, and they were all desperately biting the bamboo raft, and I knew deep down that if the bamboo raft capsized, we would all die. Immediately, I picked up the gun and stabbed it into the water, splashing and splashing my face with the blood of the piranha, but I didn't care so much, I was just busy stopping the piranha from destroying the bamboo raft.

"Oh no, you see, these fish are getting more and more crazy when they see blood, even if it's the blood of their own kind. The bamboo raft was running out of support. Ice Goose shouted.

I gritted my teeth and said, "Zhao Meng, Bing Yan, take your luggage, we're going over." As I spoke, I took out the Flying Tiger Hook, and one hook hit a rock on the opposite side, and after I pulled a few times to make sure it was strong enough, I pulled the rope with all my strength and pulled the raft in the direction of the rock. The bamboo raft immediately flew out like an arrow off the string. The piranha in front of him couldn't dodge, and was knocked out at once, and the crisis that the bamboo raft was about to be bitten apart was finally solved.
