237. Survival in a desperate situation

The old witch's original so-called identity seems to be all disguise, as for her true identity, it may have something to do with here, otherwise how could she know so many secrets, and it would be impossible for the witch clan to bring her in.

I looked at the stone jar in front of me, and I couldn't help but feel sad.

If I can, I am willing to replace Brother Neng, and become the so-called key.

Feng Lingzi patted me on the shoulder, and then lay on the stone jar to observe carefully, there was a row of small holes at the bottom of the stone jar, I knew that it was definitely not for drainage, the stone jar was connected to the bottom, and the platform did not have the slightest trace of moving, I think it was the lock that controlled the door. I don't dare to think about what will happen to Brother Neng.

I sat on the ground, away from the sacrificial stone jar, afraid to look at it, let alone think about it.

How many hardships and life and death we have experienced along the way, at this moment, in order to untie the shackles of fate on our bodies, Brother Neng actually chose to sacrifice himself without hesitation, my tears rolled in my eyes, but I knew that I couldn't shed tears, and now we must know the process of sacrifice, or how to open that damn door.

Before I knew it, I was asleep.

When I woke up again, it was already pitch black, and I don't know why we didn't have the kind of dark night strangulation vine that appeared the night before, and the place where we were should have been buried with medicine in advance, and those bugs didn't dare to come here.

They had already built a bonfire at night.

"Brother, are you better?" Mi Ye's eyes were red, I thought she should have cried behind our backs, her feelings for Brother Neng are special, although she doesn't say it, but it must be the most painful one among us.

I'm a little ashamed, Brother Neng asked me to take care of Mi Ye before, but I was immersed in my own sadness.

"Xiaoye, my brother will never let you lose him." I said as I looked at the firelight in the distance.

Mi Ye smiled with difficulty.

"Don't talk about that, come and get something to eat." Feng Lingzi greeted us.

I walked over and, indeed, this is not the time we should grieve now, I have to think of a solution.

The old witch looked like she was in a good mood, and at least we wouldn't sacrifice them casually, and we wouldn't die without help.

"Want to know how to save your friends?" The old witch took a sip of the hot soup and said.

I stood up with Mi Ye and said in unison: "Yes!" ”

"Young man, don't get so excited, sit down and think about it in the long run." She beckoned us to sit down and spoke slowly; "Actually, he'll be drained of blood, and that blood will flow down the altar to the mechanism."

"Then let my blood go." I said in unison with Mi Ye again.

"I'm not done yet, as the key to the establishment, do you think your blood will work? Save effort, I really don't know how you survived. The old witch looked disgusted.

"Look at this waterhole, the water is not overflowing, there is indeed a mechanism down here, and his blood is to make way for the water, so that it is possible to open the tomb door."

I looked at the old witch excitedly, "Is it possible that we can let the water go down without flowing in?" ”

The old witch smiled, "That's a good idea, but please feel the flow." ”

Obviously, this is not going to work, "So what should I do?" ”

"If you don't interrupt me, I would have been able to finish it a long time ago, alas~ Forget it, I can tell you that the tomb door can also be opened below, but compared to the above method, that method can be said to be nine deaths, after all, such a large flow of water can be absorbed, and people will be broken when they enter."

"Tell me how? I've gone down underwater, and I'll be fine. I took the old witch's hand and said excitedly.

We haven't known how many times we've been soaked in the water along the way, how can I, who grew up on the coast, be afraid, not to mention that I have survived the previous obedient lake, and I will definitely be able to do it for the sake of my brother.

Old Hei smiled, the old witch shook her head, and said seriously: "There is an undercurrent surging down here, and you have also seen the water of the waterfall, except for opening the mechanism, otherwise you will not be able to come up again." ”

"It's going to work." Said firmly as he looked at the waterhole.

This is the only way to protect Brother Neng, and I will seize this opportunity even if I say anything.

"Wait, how do you know so well? What are your intentions? Feng Lingzi grabbed me and said to the old witch.

"How do I know? I don't need to tell you this, but when the time comes, I will naturally say, what does it matter to you to have intentions or something? You ask him if he thinks I'm going to hurt him? The old witch was unceremonious.

"Boy, calm down. There must be another way, she said for a while that there is a divine pill that can bring the dead back to life, and for a while she says that the mechanism can be opened below, can there be such a good thing in the world? We don't even know who she is. Feng Lingzi said solemnly.

I looked at Feng Lingzi and then at the old witch, but I didn't know why I still didn't think the old witch would lie to me.

"Feng Lingzi, we don't have a choice, if the key is you, I will definitely do it."

Feng Lingzi looked at me, his mouth opening and closing, and finally he didn't know what to say.

We all know how dangerous it is to go down, but we don't even know if the so-called Divine Pill is really true, and I don't want Brother Neng's life to risk, so this method of going down and opening the mechanism is our last straw.

"Brother, let's go together." Mi Ye's tone was firm, and I really couldn't think of how to refuse her.

"You can't go, and if he doesn't succeed, is it just watching your lover die? Wouldn't his willingness become a joke? The old witch said.

I looked at the old witch with some gratitude, my own life is nothing, but such a dangerous place Miye must not follow.

"Then I'll go with you." Feng Lingzi said.

"You can't go either. You're going to stay and help me protect Saya. I said.

"But in such a dangerous place, you are alone, I don't feel at ease." Feng Lingzi said.

"I'll go with him." Old Black stepped forward.

I looked at him and didn't understand why he was going down with me.

"He knows where the agency is." The old witch's words stunned all three of us.

If Lao Hei knows the location of the mechanism, then are they the tomb guards?

"You are the tomb keepers who went out from here?" I asked, this question has been bothering me for a long time.

The old witch shook her head, "No, our clan is relatively proficient in mechanisms. ”

"You're lying, so why were we stuck there for so long when we were looking for our way before?" I don't accept the old witch's arguments at all.

"Hehehehe~ I'm too lazy to tell you, Lao Hei will take care of him below." The old witch commanded.

Old Black nodded.

He led us to the edge of the waterhole, on the altar by the waterhole, Lao Hei took off his shirt to reveal his strong upper body, every muscle of his was full of strength, sad that every time he encountered danger, he looked at ease, unhurried.

The water in the pool is very cold, but we must hurry, the Wu Clan will probably figure out a way tonight, and wait for the dawn to come and deal with Brother Neng.

"It's about three hours before dawn, so be careful when you go down." Feng Lingzi said.

"Brother, you must live." Mi Ye's voice was a little choked.

I hugged her, "Don't worry, we'll all be fine." ”

Plop ~

Old Black jumped into the pool first, and I took a deep breath and jumped in.

The cold and undercurrents of the water kept tearing at my body and nerves.

I followed the old black carefully towards the bottom of the water.
