The Ruins of the Immortal Mountain Chapter 39 The Giant Ao
As the saying goes, "I hate less when I use books", which is really the case, and now I am facing a difficult situation before I think of studying my grandfather's book, which is really late. How unjust would I have to be if I really died here...... I'm afraid that the grandfather under Jiuquan will find out and have to scold me for being an unscrupulous descendant. The life-saving methods have been left for you, and if you don't look at it, who can blame you for your death?
The oil in the oil pool flowed for a long time, a full hour. After an hour, the oil was bottoming out, and we could even see the hole the size of a sea bowl at the bottom of the oil pool.
"Let's go! Can't wait any longer! I shouted, beckoning my glasses and jar to get out of here.
But before we could rush down the coffin, we saw that the black holes at the bottom of the oil pool suddenly seemed to be torn open, and cracks were everywhere. One of the cracks went down the wall of the oil pool to the stone platform. Then there was a jolt under our feet, and the three of us were almost unsteady on our feet. Large and small pieces of stone fell from the top of the tomb and smashed into the oil pool, on the pavilion, and on the stone turtle crystal worship.
"This burial chamber is going to collapse!" I shouted so loudly.
One of the jars did not stand, but sat down on the ground, and then one rolled to dodge a falling stone: "Let's hide under the stone turtle!" ”
"Can't hide!" I hurriedly stopped, "If the ground collapses, the stone turtle will kill us all." ”
"What then?" Glasses shouted.
"We ......" But before I could finish speaking, I felt that my feet suddenly emptied, and my body sank, and I fell down with the whole tomb. At the same time as it fell, a stone smashed the shell of the stone turtle crystal shrine off the boss, revealing the black inside, and the other two baskets and purple stone lamps that fell at the same time as us were also extinguished......
I thought that there was an abyss under the tomb, but I didn't expect that there was water at my feet. Although the huge impact after falling into the water was very uncomfortable, I felt happy that I had escaped death, at least I survived.
"Jar! Spectacles! Where are you? Are you all right? "The first thing I did when I surfaced was to shout for the jar and glasses, because I knew that they could both be watered, but I didn't know if they would survive the collapse, and I was a little apprehensive.
"I'm here with my glasses!" A light shone through the darkness, and I could barely open my eyes. The jar and glasses soon swam to my side, and neither of us was injured can be said to be a blessing in misfortune, but the three of us originally had a flashlight each, but now only one of them has not entered the water, and can barely be used, but the light is dim and it seems that there is not much power.
With the help of this only flashlight, we looked around and saw that it was a huge deep pool hidden in the belly of the mountain. At this time, the three of us were in the middle of the pool, and a hundred meters away from us was the shore.
Looking at the rocks that still fell from time to time, we no longer had any hesitation and struggled to swim towards the shore. We just swam to the edge of the pool, but no one noticed that there were strange ripples in the water behind us, and a mysterious black shadow gradually emerged from the water...... But I, the jar, and the glasses didn't know it.
"The three of us are really fatal, so many stones can be smashed from the top of our heads and still be safe, I have to say that it is a miracle!" I said to the two of them as I swam. The flashlight was now in my hands, so I swam to the front to "open the way" for the two of them.
"Hmmm! After I go back this time, I will honestly stay at home and never wade through this troubled water with you again! Glasses said.
I asked curiously, "Didn't you aspire to be an archaeologist?" Why are you still scared? ”
Glasses said: "Although the archaeological work is hard, that job requires faith and perseverance, but what comes out with the two of you is life!" ”
"Hahaha, so that you can better understand the meaning of 'life is precious'!" I laughed, then turned back to greet the jar that had fallen behind: "Jar, why are you so slow?" Don't hurry up yet! ”
The jar sneered at each other and said, "It's strange that you can swim with such a big and heavy box and try it!" When he said this, he wanted to see how I reacted, but he didn't know what to do. If he had said this, I would have said a word a long time ago, but at this time I didn't move. Just when he was a little puzzled, he suddenly heard me shouting in front of him: "Altar, swim quickly!" The voice was like a desperate moment, like something big was about to happen.
The altar looked back and saw two yellow "big lanterns" floating in the air not far behind him. These two lights are not too high above the water, and although they are not particularly bright, they appear and disappear from time to time. It was only a moment when it disappeared, and then it was restored again. Twinkle and twinkle, like a pair of eyes.
The altar didn't know what it was, but he knew that I would never harm him, so he picked up his arms and swam desperately regardless of them. The two lanterns suddenly rose into the air, followed by the sound of rushing water, like the sound of a torrential rain falling from the sky.
I shone the flashlight on the two yellow lights, and I saw a giant turtle more than ten meters tall with a heavy shell on its back, and its head was swinging its head with its mouth wide open, and its appearance was almost exactly the same as that of the stone turtle. The fangs in its mouth seemed to be able to tear through all the food it swallowed.
I know that this giant turtle is the same stone turtle we saw in the burial chamber. I don't know how the owner of the tomb was able to seal it in the tomb for hundreds of years, but if it hadn't been for our intrusion that caused the entire tomb to collapse, I'm afraid it would have continued to guard the tomb for the tomb owner.
The giant turtle's gaze was fixed on us, and there was a murderous light in its eyes. It is also said that a giant fish that has been hungry for hundreds of years suddenly wakes up, and the first thing is naturally to forage for food to fill the hungry stomach. And at this moment, there are three prey in front of it, how can it let go of this good opportunity?
In the face of this hungry giant turtle, we were helpless. It is huge, not to mention that we only have shovels and machetes in our hands, even if we give us three pistols, I am afraid that it may not have any effect on its body. What's more, now that the three of us are in the water, this is its home turf, and it can be described as a fish in water, and our chances of escaping are even slimmer.
I looked back at the shore, which was not so far away, and now it was our only hope, and we had to be on the shore to have a chance to live. I glanced at Lao Bai's corpse floating beside us, and said to it apologetically: Lao Bai, I'm sorry, just think that we owe you another life after you die!
