Three hundred and ninety-three, pond water
Just when everyone was completely helpless against the mountain gate, the monkeys, which were originally so quiet that they were weird, suddenly cried collectively! The shrill voices came one after another, almost piercing people's eardrums!
Everyone desperately covered their ears and looked at the monkeys around them in horror! Tan Zhaoyu immediately went to find the traces of the Monkey King, it was impossible to kill so many monkeys, only to catch the Monkey King to deter the group of monkeys.
Just when everyone thought that the monkeys were about to attack, the monkeys' cries stopped abruptly.
Everyone slowly let go of the hand covering their ears, and heard an abrupt "poof-" coming from nowhere.
Qin Zhongzhi looked at it for a long time and couldn't find where the sound came from, and asked suspiciously, "Zhu Rong, did you fart?" ”
Zhu Rong shook his head desperately!
Invite Yu noticed the strangeness in the water for the first time, "The sound came from the water. As she spoke, she fused the nine-section dragon whip into one, holding it in her hand and staring at the water vigilantly.
With a few other "poof-" deflating sounds, several large blisters rose on the otherwise calm and waveless water. As soon as the blisters pop up, the surface of the pool lowers at a visible rate, revealing the aquatic weeds and mosses that had grown underneath around the pool.
Mo Yao was surprised: "What's going on?" Why did this pool of water suddenly drop so much?! ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Zhu Yuanyuan scream, "There's something there!" ”
Before her words fell, Invite Yu had already risen into the air, and the nine-section dragon whip in her hand stabbed straight at the living creature underwater!
But the thing was extremely alert, and almost as soon as the dragon whip entered the water, it dived straight into the depths of the water like a swimming dragon.
Invite the rain to whip the air, the body can't borrow strength, and it looks like it's about to fall into the water. Mo Yao was so frightened that he screamed, and was about to rush over to save people, but was stopped by Tang Xi first. Mo Yao saw that a rope was tied to Ling Yu's waist at some point, and the other end was being pulled by Zimo.
Zimo jumped on a tree beside him, hung the rope on the branch, and used the weight of his body to jump down and pull it again, the rope instantly straightened, and pulled back the rain who had fallen into the water with one foot.
As soon as Invite Yu landed, Mo Yao and Tang Xi immediately stepped forward to help her replace her wet shoes and socks.
Zimo held one end of the rope and walked over and asked, "Can you see what it is?" ”
Invite Yu shook his head with a calm face, "It's very big, with a tail and fins, but the head is not as sharp as a fish, but a round head like a human head......"
Zhu Yuanyuan and Mo Yao shivered in unison when they heard this, and a chill crept up their vertebrae.
Qin Zhongzhi twisted his goatee and muttered, "The human head is a fish body...... It sounds like a strange beast in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas". It's just that most of what is recorded in that book is false, and I didn't expect that we could really meet here. ”
While the group was still discussing what was underwater, there was another crash and friction sound in the pool. Immediately after, a canoe actually emerged from the bottom of the water! The canoe rocked a few times on the water and gradually stopped.
There was silence all around.
All eyes fell on the canoe that somehow emerged from the bottom of the water.
After a while, He Lu Caiqi said, "Why didn't this ship sink?" He craned his neck curiously to look ahead, "I can't even float the leaves in this pool of water, how can I float a wooden boat now?" Could it be that there is some mystery on this ship? ”
Invite Yu to gaze at the mountain wall, as the pool falls. At first, the cliff was covered with aquatic plants and shells, and slowly, a swarthy cave revealed its very top part.
Qin Zhongzhi guessed: "It seems that this ship came out of a cave. ”
Invite Yu untied the rope tied to himself and handed it to Zimo, who leaned over and picked up a small stone and tied it with a rope, and then threw the stone towards the boat.
The stone hit the bow of the ship, and the rope swirled a few times, tightly wrapping around the tip of the bow. Zimo carefully pulled the canoe over. Invite Yu and the others immediately walked up to check.
The canoe showed no signs of breakage. Although there is water in the cabin, the wood of the hull is very hard, not like a wreck that has been immersed in water.
Tan invited Yu to look at the canoe, and then raised his eyes to see the cave that only exposed a small part of it. She turned her head and confirmed with Zhu Yuanyuan: "Zhu Da did say that after calling the mountain gate, there will be a gatekeeper to pick up people?" ”
Zhu Yuanyuan nodded stunned, this series of changes made her curiosity disappear, and only frightened people remained.
Qin Zhongzhi frowned when he saw Invite Yu, so he asked, "What did the girl see?" ”
Ying Yu stared at the dark cave for a while, then leaned down and reached out to touch an inconspicuous crescent mark on the ship's bon, she said with a worried face: "I'm afraid that something has happened to the master." ”
Everyone was startled, and then they noticed that it was obviously a newly carved crescent mark. Soon he reacted to what Yu Yu was referring to.
Zimo said in a deep voice: "No wonder I haven't seen half a figure of Zoroastrianism all the way, it turned out that they came in front of us." ”
Invite Yu looked at the empty canoe thoughtfully, "Zhu Da won't lie to us." When he came before, someone must have come out of the hole to meet him. And now that the mountain keeper is missing, it is very likely that he was harmed by Zoroastrians. ”
After Invite Yu finished speaking, he immediately turned his head and instructed Mo Yao: "Go and prepare some dry food for me, I will take a boat into the cave." ”
Zimo immediately objected: "No! The cave has just come out, how do you get in? We don't know what's going on in the cave, and if you're attacked in the cave, there's no room to do it. Besides, this pool of water is very strange, and there are strange beasts in the water, if you accidentally fall into the water, you are still alive! ”
Invite Yu rarely didn't refute Zimo, nor did she play coquettishly, she said seriously: "I know what you said." But if the teacher is really in trouble, I have no reason to sit idly by. Take 10,000 steps back, if the Zoroastrian people occupy the Xingshilou, how can I change my life against the sky, wouldn't I have to sit back and wait for death? ”
Zimo choked, he glanced at the canoe, thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go with you." ”
Ying Yu quickly visually inspected the size of the cabin, barely enough to accommodate the two of them lying on the bottom of the boat. Invite Yu nodded, "Okay, let's go in first, and the others will be outside." ”
Qin Zhongzhi stepped forward and persuaded him: "The girl might as well wait a little longer." Maybe after a while, the pool will fall even more. It's also safer for you to go into the hole with Brother Zimo. ”
Invite Yu shook his head decisively, "If the Zoroastrian Sect has already invaded it, maybe if you enter the cave a moment earlier, you may be able to save one more fellow disciple." ”
