Chapter 916: The Bottom of the Lake

The Yanqing coalition army choked the gate of the country, and after entering the customs, the first to start the disaster of swords and soldiers was Suiding County of Wei State.

The Wei army was defeated and the Tingshui Pass was captured by the coalition forces, and Suiding County was immediately cloudy and could fight at any time, so many local tyrants and squires in Suiding County immediately dragged their families and mouths to flee in the direction of Kyoto.

A large number of local tyrants and squires went to Kyoto with a convoy loaded with gold and silver treasures, which naturally made some people who were really difficult to survive pay attention, and when Suiding County fell into a panic, many oppressed people had gathered in groups of three or five to plunder the property of those local tyrants and squires, and for a time the entire Suiding County was a miasma of smoke and chaos.

Zhu Xiaoyan is very familiar with the road of Suiding County, and in the past three days, he has followed those remote roads and penetrated into the hinterland of Suiding County, but he also encountered several groups of bandits on the way, all of whom were killed without exception.

In the early morning of the fourth day, the group finally passed through a mountain forest, and a lake appeared in front of it, and on the opposite side of the lake, it was a high mountain, with lush shade, looking up at the top of the mountain, but you could clearly see that there was a pagoda standing in the dense forest on the mountain, revealing most of it, like a sharp sword on the earth, piercing the sky.

Although it is spring, the morning breeze is still a little cool.

Han Mo stared at the pagoda, frowned, and finally turned his head to look at Zhu Xiaoyan: "The antidote you said is in there?" ”

"The world thinks that the Yamen, the head of the Black Flag, is located in Kyoto, but that is a big mistake." Zhu Xiaoyan said lightly: "This is the Yamen of the General Department of the Black Flag, and that pagoda is the Black Pagoda where the Black Flag is located." ”

"The Black Tower?" Han Mo's eyes showed a cold light: "Du Wufeng is in the Black Tower?" ”

Zhu Xiaoyan's face was also very cold, and he said calmly: "You can only hope that he is in the Black Tower now, or ...... Those antidotes can be found in the Black Tower! ”

Han Mo turned over and dismounted, looking at the lake in front of him through the cracks in the forest, this lake was extremely wide, extending to both sides, the lake was calm, like a big mirror, under the morning light, the sky was clearly reflected in it.

"I'll ask you one last time, are you sure you really want to enter the Black Tower?" Zhu Xiaoyan looked at Han Mo and asked with a very serious expression.

Han Mo just took off the black cloak on his body, took off the hat, and then checked the equipment on his body to make sure that there was no problem, and then said, "I didn't ask you to go with me!" ”

Zhu Xiaoyan didn't hesitate any longer, he also turned over and dismounted, and pointed to the mountain on the other side of the lake: "Don't look at that mountain, it's very quiet, but so far, no one has been able to get close to the Black Tower without consent. ”

A dark official of the West Flower Hall behind him immediately said: "My lord, my subordinates know some tricks, and they have also cracked a lot of traps, so you can give it a try!" ”

Zhu Xiaoyan shook his head and said, "Even if you want to crack all the traps on the mountain and enter the Black Tower, it will take at least half a month to ......!" He glanced at Han Mo and said, "You don't have that long. Ten days, it will take six or seven days to go back and forth on the way, and by the time the mechanism has not been cracked, Miss Xiao has already died. ”

Han Mo clenched his fists, stared at the black tower, and asked in a deep voice, "Then what do you say you should do?" ”

Zhu Xiaoyan's gaze fell on the surface of the lake, pondered for a moment, and finally asked, "Do you all know how to dive?" ”

"Diving?" Several dark officials behind him looked at each other, and they didn't understand why Zhu Xiaoyan asked like this for a while.

Han Mo thought about it, seemed to understand something, and said to the five dark officials: "Those who are good at diving stand up. ”

At that moment, three dark officials stepped forward, but the other two did not.

Han Mo nodded and said, "The three of you will go with you." Then he said to the other two: "You two are not good at diving, just wait here to answer, be careful yourself!" ”

Although the two of them were a little disappointed, they also knew that the stakes were high, and they both said softly: "The subordinates obey the order." ”

Han Mo was born in the East China Sea, he grew up in the water since he was a child, and the water nature is naturally not ordinarily good.

Zhu Xiaoyan's expression became serious, and he said softly: "If you want to storm the Black Tower, with the strength of the seven of us, it is undoubtedly an egg against a stone." If we want to get the antidote, we can only attack suddenly, and enter the Black Tower unknowingly, if Du Wufeng is inside, we have to shoot with all our strength and knock him down as quickly as possible, otherwise...... We can only be knocked out by him. ”

"You mean there's a passage under the lake?" Han Mo also asked seriously.

Zhu Xiaoyan nodded and said: "There is a passage under the water, which leads directly to the underground underground dungeon of the Black Tower, we steal into the water, and we must lurk in the underground underground dungeon ......!" He pointed to the lake and said: "On the opposite mountain, there must be the eyes of the black flag, if we are exposed to the water because of the lack of breath, it is very likely to be detected by the black flag, if the black tower is on guard, this operation will never be successful." He looked back at a few people, and said with an extremely serious expression: "So you must remember that you must not show your ...... before you reach the water prison!" ”

Several of them nodded firmly.

Zhu Xiaoyan looked at Han Mo and said calmly: "I know that you are very strange in your heart, why am I so familiar with this place. Now, I don't have time to explain to you, I just want to say to you, if you succeed this time, it will be good for you and me, and if you fail, then I will die here with you. If we make it out alive, I think you'll understand a lot of things. ”

Zhu Xiaoyan's expression was sincere, Han Mo stared for a moment, and finally smiled: "Okay, no matter who you are, if you succeed, if you fail, let's go to Huangquan together!" ”

Except for the two who stayed, the other five people were all ready, Zhu Xiaoyan was the first to crawl out of the woods and quietly leaned towards the lake, and the other people also followed, one by one.

When they arrived at the lake, Zhu Xiaoyan's body slowly slid into the water, his voice was extremely soft, Han Mo and the others took a deep breath, and also dived into the lake one by one.

The lake is so wide that it must take a long time to reach the other end, near the underground entrance to the water dungeon.

Zhu Xiaoyan led the way, Han Mo followed, and the other three dark officials also stared at one by one, swimming forward.

Among the five people, Han Mo's water nature is naturally the best, but Zhu Xiaoyan's awakening is not weak, like an underwater swordfish, extremely flexible.

Being underwater, it was difficult for several other people to discern the direction, but Zhu Xiaoyan was extremely familiar, and after swimming for a while, the chests of several people began to suffocate, especially one of the dark officials, whose strength was obviously weakened.

Zhu Xiaoyan also seemed to feel that someone behind him was not supported, suddenly stopped, turned around and swam back, I don't know when there was an iron pipe in his hand, the tube was hollow, he swam to the side of the dark official, and made a few gestures, the dark official immediately understood, took the iron pipe, one end revealed a trace of water, and the other end was pointed with his mouth, barely took a few breaths, but also swallowed a lot of lake water, but the feeling of suffocation disappeared immediately.

Zhu Xiaoyan helped the other people each take a few breaths, and then continued to swim to the front and go forward.

The five of them were like swimming fish in a long line in the water, and after a long time, everyone felt that the light under the water suddenly dimmed.

Originally, when I was underwater, the light was extremely dim, but I could still see the shadow in front of me, but at this moment, it was dim, and I couldn't even see the shadow in front of me.

Han Mo knew in his heart that the light suddenly dimmed, it must be because he was about to reach the water prison.

Although you can't see the figure in front of you, when everyone swims, the legs move, and there will inevitably be a wave of water, and several people can follow closely with the movement of the water waves.

Vaguely, when Han Mo swam forward, he only felt a sudden feeling of squeezing around him, he stretched out his arms, but found that there were already stone walls on both sides, and after groping around again, it was finally clear, unconsciously, he had swam into a narrow underwater passage.

The water is already suffocating, and when he enters this narrow underwater passage, Rao is Han Mo has excellent water quality, but he also has a strong feeling of suffocation, and his head is even a little dizzy.

This passage is obviously opened in the rock formation at the bottom of the mountain, leading water into the water prison, at this time, even if there is an iron pipe, it cannot be breathed, because the entire passage is crowded with lake water, there is no room for breathe, everyone can only follow one by one to move forward, Han Mo dizziness is good, several dark officials behind him have swallowed a lot of lake water, extremely uncomfortable, if you can't breathe anymore, I'm afraid that you will suffocate under the water.

Just when Han Mo couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of lake water, he suddenly felt that his surroundings were spacious, but he finally swam through the tunnel, his body immediately floated up, poked his head out, and just came out of the water to his neck, and the top of his head was blocked by a layer of rocks.

Although out of the passage, the small space at the exit is still full of lake water, and the water surface is only a two-finger-long gap from the rock at the top, but fortunately, this gap is enough for people to breathe, and the surrounding area is pitch black, and it is impossible to see the situation on all sides.

Han Mo took a deep breath of air, but he already heard a burst of vomiting in his ears, knowing that it was the three dark officials behind him who came out and were vomiting the lake water he had just swallowed.

Zhu Xiaoyan also vomited for a while, and when the vomiting sound calmed down, he said softly: "Have they all come out?" ”

Han Mo also said softly: "Did the three of you come out, just give the code!" ”

"Black Scorpion!"

"Red Mouse!"

"Poison bats!"

All three Dark Officers whispered their code names.

Han Mo breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's all here." ”

Zhu Xiaoyan said: "We have reached the bottom of the Black Tower, there will be no one here, first rest here for half an hour, recover our strength, and after half an hour, we will act again!" ”
