Chapter 231: Meeting
Xiao Cai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "There is a time limit for villagers to transform into water ghosts, and these water monkeys are now too busy to take care of themselves, and they don't have the strength to attack us at all. Let's dive down and take a look, I always feel that this cave is not simple. ”
"Look at me!" Ouyang Momo came down to his senses and steered the boat to dive underwater.
It wasn't long before they saw four ape-like water monkeys standing at the bottom of the cave, pushing the rudder-shaped turntable from north to south.
Ouyang Momo was surprised: "Organ! There's a giant trap underneath the water! ”
The water monkey may not be a young man's opponent on the shore, but it is infinitely powerful in the water, and it is no longer a problem to tear the buffalo alive.
However, the four giant ape-like water monkeys seemed to be struggling forward with exhaustion, and the high bulging muscles of their legs seemed to be able to break through the epidermis at any time, bursting out with the residual strength of their strength.
Among them, the water monkey with only one arm left had already seen Xiao Cai, a bad guest, but he only bared his white teeth and issued two warnings, without the slightest intention of letting go of the mechanism and attacking.
"Do you want me to shoot an arrow at it?" Ouyang Momo stretched out his hand and pressed the mechanism.
"It's good!" Xiao Cai also wanted to see what those water monkeys were doing: "You don't need to shoot them, you can shoot them in the calf." ”
"Look at me!" Ouyang Momo pushed the mechanism, and a powerful crossbow shot out from the port side of the boat dragged a bubble like white smoke into the water and sank into the monkey's calf half a foot. Between the blood splashes, the water monkey knelt on one knee, his hands still holding on to the turntable to prevent the mechanism from reversing.
The other monkey waved his free hand again and again to prevent Xiao Cai from continuing to release the crossbow arrow, although it could not make a sound in the water, but its face was full of pleading expressions.
Xiao Cai saw that the injured monkey knelt a few feet on the ground with both knees, and suddenly there was a muffled "click" sound from the bottom of the roulette wheel.
"The trap is activated!" Ouyang Momo's voice fell, and the water in the cave suddenly leaked out towards the entrance of the cave, and the strong suction almost caused the boat to hit the rock wall.
After Ouyang Momo pushed the mechanism violently, the boat stopped after moving against the current for less than half a foot, although there was no way to continue to move forward, fortunately, it stopped in place and did not rush out of the cave with the current.
At this time, the two of them clearly felt that the water level in the cave was falling, and it seemed that it would not be long before the water level would drop below the entrance of the cave, and they would be out of danger at that time.
Just when the mechanism controlled by Ouyang Momo was desperately resisting the current, the water monkey that was shot and injured by her was like a crazy bull, fitting and crashing into the boat.
Ouyang Momo was hit by the other party in a timely dodge, the frenzied impact of the water monkey and the help of the water flow were superimposed, and the impact of the boat was no less than being hit head-on by the artillery, and it rushed towards the entrance of the cave in a circle.
Seeing that the boat was about to hit the rock, Ouyang Momo pulled the mechanism violently, forcibly pulled the bow of the boat a few feet, and rushed into the cave as fast as a sharp arrow. Although Ouyang Momo resolved the crisis of being almost knocked to pieces, the cracks like spider webs exploded around the boat, and the water began to pour into the cabin from the cracks.
"Steady, try your best to delay!" Xiao Cai pressed Ouyang Momo's shoulder and comforted: "As long as we wait until the water level drops, we will be saved." ”
"I'll try my best!" At this time, Ouyang Momo also had to break the cauldron and fight to the death. Maneuvering the boat hard against the water, struggling to swim upstream.
However, under the repeated injuries of the boat, the power of the mechanism also reached the end of the crossbow, and it had no choice but to retreat in the current. Fortunately, the water level in the cave was also constantly decreasing, and gradually receded to the sides of the ship. At this time, the overwhelmed boat was on the verge of collapse.
"Let it go!" Xiao Cai drank angrily, and Ouyang Momo, who was so anxious that the corners of his forehead were sweating, subconsciously let go of his hands. The boat, which lost control, immediately shot arrows towards the entrance of the cave, and at the same time flew and disintegrated. The wooden armor that wrapped around the hull of the ship was torn off by the current, and the four oars also flew off one after another, and the four cracks that exploded on the bow of the ship continued to extend to the stern......
Xiao Cai, who was staring at the window, suddenly saw the boat rushing out of the hole, and suddenly with the strength of his feet, he stepped on the hull of the boat in half along the cracks on the hull, and at the same time, he reached out and grabbed Ouyang Momo and flew into the air.
Below Wujia Village, where the county ordered Yang Xin to see the black hole, it really turned into a black whirlpool, rolling the surrounding rivers and pouring them into the ground. The center of the whirlpool is not only bottomless, but also leads to the nine shades. And it formed an extremely terrifying suction force above the water surface, sucking the birds that passed in the air into the ground.
Fortunately, Xiao Cai and Ouyang Momo were close to the cliff of Wujia Village, so they were not affected by the whirlpool.
This whirlpool that appeared out of thin air had already shocked them both beyond measure, and soon, the river water was flowing again with a scene that was difficult for them to understand.
Somehow, a spherical object sphered up from the river. The size of the ball is not small, and from the appearance it is enough to hold five or six people to move freely in it. And there are people inside the sphere who are precisely manipulating, otherwise it would not be like a fish swimming in the water, constantly avoiding and even splitting the obstacles that stand in the way.
Xiao Cai even had some doubts about whether what she saw was real, she couldn't figure out how the seemingly airtight sphere could release a cold moon-type aurora one after another, continuously splitting the obstacles in front of her, and clearing the way for the body: "What is that?" ”
"It's supposed to be a puppet." Ouyang Momo also frowned and said, "Why is it not from the Southern Ghost Axe, the Northern Divine Craft, could it be the witch Gu mechanism that Xie Bangui said." ”
Xiao Cai pointed to the back of the ball and said, "It should be, didn't you see that the secret capture of the Immortal Mansion is chasing the ball?" ”
Ouyang Momo looked in the direction of her finger, and sure enough, she saw four clippers chasing after the ball, although she couldn't see the faces of the boaters, but she could judge from the clothes that they were all people from the Immortal Mansion.
Although the Mengchong boat of Xianfu is fast, it is always pulled out of a distance by the ball, and when it can get close by chance, it has to slow down under the cold light.
The secret capture of the Immortal Mansion was like a raindrop-like crossbow and arrow hidden weapon, and even the palm wind and qi, but it was thrown around by the flying sphere, and it failed to hurt the opponent's body in the slightest.
Just as the two sides chased and fled, the sphere was already close to the edge of the whirlpool, and the secret capture of the Immortal Mansion was still hesitating to continue the pursuit, but the ball suddenly sank into the water and slowly rolled down towards the center of the whirlpool.
The secret capture of the Xianfu Secret Hunt, who had lost his target, did not dare to approach the whirlpool again, and hurriedly turned the rudder and retreated to the shore.
Xiao Cai, who was hanging high in the air and looking down at the water, saw that the ball broke through the barrier of the whirlpool from the bottom of the water, and then rolled into the bottom of the water under the impetus of the current, the bottomless black hole.
When she wanted to take a closer look, she was blocked by the river, and Xiao Cai's heart turned sharply and said, "I'll take a look in the cave." ”
"You want to go back?" Ouyang Momo was taken aback: "We managed to escape, besides, we don't even have a boat now." What else do you want to fight with the water monkeys underwater? ”
"The water has receded, and the water monkeys don't pose much of a threat to us." Xiao Cai couldn't help but grab Ouyang Momo and took her back to the cave.
The water level in the cave has fallen below the entrance of the cave, but the water monkeys in the cave have disappeared, leaving only a few dead bodies that have not floated out are still floating on the water, among which the nearest dead body at the entrance of the cave, the skull has completely collapsed from the forehead, and the whole head has been twisted into shape. It seems that it is very likely to be the giant water monkey that hit Ouyang Momo's wooden boat.
"I didn't even have time to take the corpses away, it seems that they left in a hurry...... Xiao Cai glanced at the cave and said, "There is an exit there, let's go over and take a look." ”
The exit she said was on the opposite stone wall, although it was separated by a puddle, but with Xiao Cai's skills, it was not difficult to fly over. It's just that what she didn't expect was that the winding and artificially dug tunnel behind the exit not only did not house the mechanism, but also paved with neat stone steps, and the two of them walked out without much effort.
Even Xiao Cai himself felt that he was too careful, and he wasted a lot of time by making a tunnel without danger to make a noise.
After Xiao Cai walked out of the tunnel, the first thing he saw was Li Zheng sitting calmly at the exit. The other party didn't get up when he saw Xiao Cai, but said in a hoarse voice: "I know you have a lot to ask me, I can answer all your questions, but please let the people in the village go." ”
"She doesn't have that qualification, she doesn't have that power." Before Xiao Cai could speak, a voice full of provocation sounded behind her. Xiao Cai didn't have to look back to know that it was Ren Chongyun who came.
More than a dozen Xianfu secret arresters who came with him quietly surrounded Xiao Cai and the three of them in the middle, for Liu Zhenhao did not open his mouth, but his henchman Hyacinth spoke first: "Xiao Cai, this case also has a share of our Xianfu, it seems that it is not in accordance with the rules for you to ask the case alone!" ”
Xiao Cai looked at Xianfu with a smile, neither angry nor answering, but there was endless contempt and mockery in his eyes.
Liu Zhenhao knew that things were going to be worse just by looking at her expression. Sure enough, the tall fat man's voice full of gunpowder sounded behind the secret capture of the Immortal Mansion: "Fuck your mother's rules." Lao Tzu's words are now the rules. Which one is not convinced, stand up and talk. ”
Xie Bangui and Gao Fatzi had already rushed to the vicinity of Wujia Village, but they were blocked at the foot of the mountain by the flood. As soon as the flood waters receded, the two immediately rushed up and happened to collide with them.
Xie Bangui and the tall fat man walked towards Xiao Cai as if no one was around.
An immortal secret capture was about to reach out to stop it, but was slapped to the ground by the tall fat man, and before he could get up, he was pierced through the shoulder by the fat man's Fang Tianhua halberd and nailed to the ground.
The tall fat man hugged his shoulders, squinted at Liu Zhenhao and said contemptuously: "The surname is Liu, your fat man originally thought you were a character, but I didn't expect that the people in Xianfu really couldn't look down on you." first came out with Ren Chongyun, who ate inside and out, and then came up with something like you who only knew how to bully a little girl. It's really to give the fairy mansion a long face. ”
"What did you say?" All the immortal mansion catchers were furious, and they showed their weapons one after another, and surrounded the fat man.
The fat man glared and said, "Why do you want to fight, grandpa accompanies you!" As he spoke, he reached out and pulled out Fang Tian's halberd. As long as he moved the palm of his hand, the crescent blade at the front of the halberd was enough to remove the secret capture arm along with the arm.
It's just that before his palm touched the halberd, Liu Zhenhao had already spoken: "Be merciful!" ”
"Forget it!" Xie Bangui said lightly: "Lord Liu is a fair and upright man, and bullying women must not be his intention." ”
"Hehe......" Liu Zhenhao laughed dryly twice and did not answer.
Wujia Village is besieged by water, and the sudden appearance of the ball is not an accidental coincidence. The superposition of the two things brought the case to a critical moment. Both of them want to get to the bottom of the matter first, but in the absence of explicit cooperation, there is always a come-first-come-first-come.
