As soon as Yan Ming's words came out, Dian Wei and Xu Sheng in several pits next to them immediately looked at each other, and then without a pause, they threw down their hoes and ran over almost at the same time. From afar, Dian Wei opened his voice and shouted, "Boss, did you really find it?" ”

"Hmm!" Wang Xu smiled and nodded.

Seeing this, several people suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief, digging the pit for so long, it was really enough to hold their breath. And Wang Xu didn't explain much, when he rushed to the edge of the cliff with a few people full of doubts, and after a little inspection, he pointed to the lake below: "If I guessed correctly, the gossip-shaped mechanism should be in the lower half of this cliff, but the lake has submerged it." ”

Hearing this, Song Qian immediately wiped his forehead with his wrist, and then shook off the sweat in his hand and said, "Lord, let me go down and take a look, I have the best water here!" ”

But as soon as the words came out, Jia Hua on the side was shocked and said hurriedly: "No! This is the place where the Fujiao Mountains protrude to Taihu Lake, like a dragon's head, we all call it Longtoutan. The surface of the lake here seems to be calm now, but in fact the water below the lake is turbulent, with undercurrents and rocky reefs. You have not seen the scene of a gale, when the undercurrent is raised, and the sound is so earth-shattering that you can hear the crashing of the waves for miles. If people go down, even the slightest carelessness, it will be completely gone! ”

"That's amazing!" Hearing Jia Hua say this, Xu Sheng, Dian Wei and they immediately exclaimed.

Yan Ming was already afraid of water, but when he heard him say this at this moment, he couldn't help but shiver, and he took a step back in fright. Although Wang Xu is not afraid, he also has some heart palpitations, after all, his water nature was practiced in the small river in Shanyang when he was a child, and it is no problem to encounter this kind of seemingly endless big lake! After thinking about it for a long time, there was no good way, but if I gave up in vain, I was a little unwilling.

Perhaps seeing his intentions, Xu Sheng pondered for a long time, and suddenly stood up and said, "Lord, if you tie my body with a rope, I'll go down and try!" ”

Hearing this, Jia Hua immediately nodded and agreed: "This is a good way, as long as you use a rope to tie your upper body, if you have something, you can pull the rope with your hands." Leave two more people on this shore to help, and it will be fine. ”

Wang Xu thought about it, and felt the same, but he was not in a hurry, and after observing for a while, he said cautiously: "Hmm! Yes, but you still have to be prepared. Today, everyone has dug a pit for half a day, and the body has been lost, so it is better to rest for the night, recuperate, and go into the water tomorrow morning. As he spoke, he couldn't help but turn his head and said, "Jia Hua, do you have fishing nets or boats in your village, borrow them as a precaution, and if there is an accident, we will take more measures." ”

"Yes, although our village is not next to the lake, there are still many people who often go to the lake to fish, so I will borrow it." After speaking, Jia Hua no longer hesitated, and turned around and rushed back to the village.

Wang Xu was not idle, he carefully surveyed the surrounding situation, and also tied a stone to the lake with his body to explore the way, in short, he felt that he had made enough preparations, so he took everyone back to the camp.

Sitting by the bonfire, eating the grilled fish made by Yan Ming, drinking the old wine cellared in Jia Hua's house, a group of people chatted, guessed the contents of the treasure, and unconsciously fell asleep one after another......

When Wang Xu was awakened by the eyes of the early morning, Xu Sheng, Song Qian, and Jia Hua were already busy making preparations. Check the rope, hold the fishing net, measure the approximate length, and extinguish the lime powder and plant ash that are used to repel insects......

Seeing Wang Xu rubbing his eyes and getting up from the mat, Song Qian immediately smiled and said, "Lord, you're awake!" We'll be ready in no time. ”

"Huh! You're really early. Smiling, Wang Xu turned his head to look at Yan Ming, who was still asleep, and couldn't help but grab a piece of grass and gently play with it on his pink face. Out of a stress reaction, Yan Ming suddenly scratched his face unconsciously, his rosy lips pursed, and he let out a lazy hum!

Seeing her so cute, Wang Xu suddenly became interested and kept playing with her face. Immediately, I saw that Yan Mingxiu's eyebrows were furrowing more and more tightly when he was asleep, but after a while, he straightened up violently, grabbed his face with both hands and let out a high-decibel scream. "Ah...... Snake......"

Wang Xu, who was startled, hurriedly covered his ears, but everyone in the distance heard this scream and rushed over. "Where is the snake?" "Are you hurt?"

Yan Ming screamed himself, and seemed to be completely awake, and suddenly gasped in shock: "Wrong, it should be a dream!" I dreamed that a snake had crawled on my face. ”

Everyone laughed, shook their heads, and went back to their own business. But Wang Xu didn't expect to make such a big move, and even quietly threw away the weeds in his hands.

It's a pity that this action was too abrupt, and it was immediately seen by Yan Ming. Seeing Wang Xu smiling slightly, looking casual, he couldn't help but touch his face suspiciously, but he caught a little residual grass clippings. In an instant, she understood everything, grabbed the Yue Nu sword next to her and got up and killed: "You dare to make fun of me, I was almost scared to death by you, I can't spare you today!" ”

"Again? Please, can you change it to something else, don't use that sword, it's scary! Wang Xu, who was already planning to slip away, was even more frightened and ran away.

"Humph! Who made you scare me. ”

"Where did I want to scare you, I just wanted to tease you, who knew that you were still dreaming in broad daylight......"

Seeing Yan Ming lifting his sword and chasing Wang Xu to slash, Song Qian suddenly hesitated and asked Xu Sheng beside him, "Wen Xiang, will she really hurt the lord?" ”

Hearing this, Xu Sheng suddenly smiled without looking back: "Don't worry, she can't bear it!" It's our expectant lady herself who is struggling, so she deliberately finds fault and vents! ”

"Tangled? What do you mean? Song Qian suddenly said in confusion.

"Huh! This is a new word invented by the lord, which probably means self-contradiction in the heart. Saying that, Xu Sheng smiled, and then turned back and said: "The lord's writing is very good, you will naturally understand it when you listen to the lord's words in the future, and you will naturally understand, otherwise the more you listen, the more confused you will be." ”

"Oh!" Song Qian nodded suddenly.

After tossing for a long time, Wang Xu finally calmed down Yan Ming's anger on the grounds that it was not too early and he should have acted. With everyone and the tools that had been prepared, he hurried to the side of the cliff and took a brief look. Then he said solemnly: "Dian Wei, Jia Hua, you and Yan Ming stay on this rock, looking at the rope. Song Qian, you get on the boat, prepare the fishing nets, and make an emergency at any time. I'll go down with Xu Sheng! ”

As soon as these words came out, Dian Wei suddenly said urgently: "Boss, I'll go down!" ”

"Don't fight, I'll go down, I'm the best among all people." Song Qian also immediately rushed to say.

As soon as Song Qian's words came out, Jia Hua nodded: "Hmm! I also think it's good for Song Qian to go down. As he spoke, he hesitated slightly, and then said: "And I'm more familiar with the waters in this area, I'll go down with Song Qian!" ”

Hearing this, Wang Xu shook his head without hesitation. "No, Dian Wei is born with divine powers, it is better to stay on the shore, and it will be easier to pull anyone when the time comes. And according to what you said, when you were still learning art in the mountains, your master taught it in the creek, and it is estimated that it is not much better! Although Song Qian has a good water nature, it is precisely because of this that you have to get on the boat, first, you are more skilled than anyone else with fishing nets, and second, you can save people at critical moments. As for Jia Hua, you know the situation in this area very well, so you have a sense of fear, it is not suitable to go down, stay on the shore and command everyone to find a way when something happens. So it is still me and Wen Xiang who are the most suitable, Wen Xiang's master is originally a southerner and knows water well, so he also taught Wen Xiang. As for me, it's not good, but it's not bad, and it might take a lot of trouble to open the mechanism below, so I'll have to go down. ”

The crowd opened their mouths when they said this, but they couldn't find the words to refute it. In fact, this was Wang Xu's decision after careful consideration, after all, he was also afraid that there would really be an accident, and if he couldn't steal the chicken, he wouldn't be able to draw the rice on credit.

The decision was made, and everyone stopped talking and got ready. The boat prepared by Jia Hua had already rowed to the side of the cliff and bolted up when he went back to prepare at noon yesterday, so he and Song Qian only needed to pick up the fishing nets. Dian Wei carefully tied the rope to the surrounding big rocks, and carefully checked the rope for a long time. And Wang Xu and Xu Sheng tied ropes to each other with the help of Yan Ming.

But seeing that Wang Xu was going down in person, Yan was obviously very worried, but he couldn't help but persuade him several times to forget it. But how can it be counted now? If it was possible two days ago, it was already ready to be fired, otherwise what would he, the lord? To Xu Shengdianwei, they said that they were suddenly scared? What's more, Wang Xu is also extremely unwilling, he has worked so hard, if he gets nothing, then he will be angry.

After grinding for a long time, after everyone was ready, Wang Xu stopped being verbose and immediately walked to the side of the cliff. After taking a deep breath, he said to Dian Wei behind him: "Let us go!" ”

"Good!" Dian Wei didn't talk nonsense, as Wang Xu and them gradually hung in the air, they immediately held a rope with Jia Hua and quickly lowered it.

The reason why it took so much trouble was because I was worried that the cliff was more than two meters high from the water, and if I jumped directly, I might hit the underwater reef or rock protrusion, so I could only put it slowly.

As the two of them got closer and closer to the water, Wang Xu and Xu Sheng couldn't help but glance at each other, nodded, and slowly mobilized their internal strength. "Poof!" "Poof!" With two sounds of entering the water, Xu Sheng and Wang Xu fell into the water one after another. After taking a deep breath, Wang Xu suddenly stopped hesitating, and even dived.

But not long after entering the water, I immediately felt the power of the current, and if it wasn't for the slight pull of the rope on my body, I am afraid it would be difficult to stabilize my body. However, the water here is clear, you can see when you open your eyes, and the sunlight here today is not blocked by obstacles, so you can still see up to three meters underwater.

In order not to waste time, Wang Xu pointed at Xu Huang in the water, meaning that the two of them were looking for it separately from the left and right sides of the cliff rock. And Xu Huang nodded clearly, and immediately swam to the right. Wang Xu didn't waste time, turned around at the same time, stared at his feet, and used breaststroke to get close to the left side of the cliff to find it.

Wang Xu, who was in the water, didn't have the heart to calculate the time, although with the help of internal force, it would greatly prolong the breath-holding time, but after all, he was still a human being, so there was always a time when he couldn't hold back. Anyway, every time I felt that I couldn't hold it anymore, I dived to the surface for air. And the ventilation time between him and Xu Sheng, Jia Hua on the rock was also very attentive, and slowly cooperated with Dian Wei to retract his rope, which greatly reduced the consumption of Wang Xu and Xu Sheng's body. After all, this water flow is too chaotic, and the consumption of the body is very large, and although the two of them are martial artists, they can't withstand the toss of nature.

As the time of soaking in the water became longer and longer, Wang Xu and Xu Sheng always found nothing, except for the bottom of the cliff where they did not dare to go down to the riverbed, the entire rock was turned over by Wang Xu and Xu Sheng.

After making sure that there was no left side of the cliff rock, Wang Xu finally surfaced on the water, and with the pull of the rope above, he stepped on the water lightly and rested a little. And soon Xu Sheng also came out of the water, and when he saw Wang Xu floating on it, he immediately smiled bitterly: "Lord, there is nothing!" ”

"Hey! Forget it, take a break and find it again! As he spoke, he turned his head to Song Qian in the distance and said, "Song Qian, you row the boat over, and Xu Sheng and I will rest on the boat." ”

But Song Qian immediately replied: "Lord! No, my net has already been spread around, and if you come over, you will be swept away by the underwater current, and you may be tripped up when you go down later! Or we'll look for it tomorrow! ”

Hearing this, Wang Xu suddenly felt an evil fire, and his heart was extremely aggrieved, looking for a treasure for a few days, but he was so wolf. After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth fiercely, turned his head to look at Xu Sheng and said, "Wen Xiang, let's go, let's go down again." This venture down to the place where the cliffs connect to the riverbed and look for it, and if there is no more, then not to look for it. Don't find the treasure, take your life, you can't get it! ”

"Okay!" Xu Sheng looked for it for a long time, and of course he knew how difficult it was, so he immediately nodded and agreed.
