"But the Gaoshan people are also different, other ethnic groups are respectful of the fierce beasts in the water like gods, they are good, they directly built a statue and locked it in the water prison, does this show that their Gaoshan people are stronger than the fierce beasts in the water?"

"There's nothing unusual about that." Yan Xiaoying said lightly: "The Gaoshan people live in the deep mountains, and they are in the company of wild beasts all year round, and even enslave wild beasts for their own use, so they naturally have nothing to admire for these fierce beasts in the water. ”

"It seems that there are many secrets in this place that we don't know." I sighed.

Then, I told Yan Xiaoying about the red-haired monster lying on the outer wall of the copper pillar that I had just surfaced.

"The way out is above the deep pool, and we have chosen the wrong one." I said.

"When I jumped, I thought about it."

Yan Xiaoying was not surprised by this, nodded and said, "The horizontal position we are in now should be at the same level as the water level around the island, and the water below here may be connected to the surrounding lake." ”

"Anyway, let's get out of here first, I don't know how Ganlan is doing now?"

Yan Xiaoying's face showed a worried look, she had a good impression of Gan Lan, and she didn't want her to have an accident.

I took the flashlight from Yan Xiaoying's hand and scanned the entire underground underground dungeon again, looking for a way out.

The entire water dungeon was sealed, except for the water hole underground, and there was also a hole two meters above the head of the stone python.

It's not so much a hole as a crack, and the crack is not big enough for one person to drill into sideways. But it's deep, bottomless, and doesn't know where it leads.

Yan Xiaoying and I glanced at each other, and needless to say, the two of them swam towards the stone python.

When you come to the stone python, you can really see the finely carved scales on its body, except for the color of the stone, there is no difference from the real one.

The whole stone sculpture of the giant python was cold, locked by thick, large iron chains, and motionless.

It naturally can't move.

Yan Xiaoying pointed to the crack above the python's head and motioned for us to climb up the stone python's body.

Although it is a stone carving, because of the immersion in the water, the surface climbed with a layer of moss, wet and slippery, fortunately it is wrapped around the iron chain, otherwise it is really difficult to climb up.

Yan Xiaoying was agile and carried a heavy backpack, but she was faster than me in climbing.

I saw that her whole person was like a monkey, and with the help of the iron chain hanging in the air, she climbed up in three times and stood on top of the snake's head.

I wasn't as fast as hers, so I could only climb up slowly, and for some reason, touching the body of the stone python, I always felt like it was alive, which was terrifying.

Finally climbed to the head and position of the snake, and at this time, Yan Xiaoying had already drilled into the crack, untied the backpack, and beckoned to me: "There is a sound of water inside, hurry up." ”

I nodded, and when I looked up, I suddenly saw the stone python's eyes roll.

Rubbing my eyes, I thought I was dazzled.

When I looked closely, I saw a stone skin cracked in the python's nose, and the stone skin fell off, revealing the golden scales inside.

Immediately after that, I heard the sound of countless iron chains trembling around me, and the stone skin of the giant python in front of me cracked and fell off like a spider's web, revealing the golden scales inside.

"Not good! This python is the real thing, and all that covers its surface is a layer of stone skin! ”

I watched the stone python in front of me fall off one by one, and I was stupid.

"What's the fuss, it's coming back to life, hurry up and climb up!" Yan Xiaoying saw me in a daze, and shouted anxiously.

Hearing Yan Xiaoying's voice, I came back to my senses, seeing that the giant python in front of me was about to wake up, where did I dare to delay? In a hurry, he grabbed the chain and climbed up.

When I stepped on the head of the snake and was about to grab Yan Xiaoying's outstretched hand, the whole person was suddenly swept away.

The stone python was completely revived, and opened its mouth as thick as a water tank to bite me.

It's so terrible, even when facing the snake, I didn't think it was so scary, the person was in the air, and in a panic, he grabbed the iron chain hanging aside.

Bang dang! Bang dang!

In front of me, a huge python covered in golden scales appeared in front of me, and the smell of fish filled the air, which was the breath that came out of the mouth of the golden python.

Because it was chained all over its body, it didn't bite me just now, but when it came back to life, its body writhed, stretching the chains on its body straight, far from my ulnar side, and the long scarlet tongue that stretched out could even lick my face.

Hiss! Hiss......

Seeing that the golden python was locked in iron chains, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, if it didn't have these iron chains, I would definitely have been swallowed by it just now.

I grabbed the chain and hung my body backwards, distancing myself from the golden python.

"Watch out under the water!"

However, at this moment, Yan Xiaoying stood in the crack and exclaimed in surprise with a flashlight to remind me.

When I heard this, I hurriedly looked down at the water, and when I saw it, my face immediately changed in fright.

I saw a thick human body, a huge snake body churning under the water, golden scales appearing and disappearing in the water.

What's even more terrifying is that its tail is not chained, and at this moment it lifted out of the water and whipped at me.

I was clutching the suspended chains at this time, and there was nowhere to escape, and if I was hit by the tail of the golden python, I estimated that my muscles and bones would be broken, and I would explode to death.

"Let go!"

At this time, Yan Xiaoying, who was standing in the crack, suddenly spoke.

Before I could understand what was going on, I felt a tightness around my waist and a rope wrapped around me.

When the python was drawn, I couldn't care so much anymore and let go of the hand that grabbed the chain.

As soon as the body fell, I immediately felt the tail of the giant python that was whistling approaching.

The next moment, my body suddenly moved sideways and flew towards the crack where Yan Xiaoying was.

It turned out that she had just thrown out the rope and wrapped it around my waist, and was pulling me in her direction.

But...... The python was right under her.

Sure enough, when the python saw me suddenly flying towards it, it naturally opened its mouth to greet it.

At this point, I was like a sheep in the mouth of a tiger, and there was no difference.

I was so frightened that I closed my eyes, but quickly broke away again, because the moment I closed my eyes, I saw Yan Xiaoying jump out of the crack and step on the golden python's palate.

The big mouth of the golden python was suddenly stepped on by her, and the whole huge head fell half a meter.

Yan Xiaoying reached out and took me, and then pushed me hard against the crack.

I grabbed the edge of the crack and got in, and Yan Xiaoying turned over and got in with the help of the corpse rope wrapped around my waist.

Finally escaping from the snake's mouth, I turned sideways into the crevice, panting and screaming, frightened.

Because Yan Xiaoying was blocked outside the crack mouth, she couldn't see the situation outside the water prison, only the sound of iron chains and the sound of water waves rolling.

Apparently, the golden python was going berserk.

"It's not good to stay here for a long time, hurry up!"

Yan Xiaoying urged me to leave quickly.

I thanked me and turned sideways to go deeper into the crack, which was too narrow for Yan Xiaoying to pass through with her backpack, so she had to drag it behind her.

The two walked for about thirty meters and finally came out of the crack.

What appeared in front of us was a huge underground cave with a wide inlet next to it.

The current was slow, and we were now treading on the sand on the shore of the inlet.

Scanning the surroundings, I didn't see any danger, I sat on the ground with a fart, a little heart beating non-stop.

It was really dangerous just now, and it took a long time to talk about it, but from the recovery of the golden python to Yan Xiaoying's rescue with a corpse rope, it was only a matter of a few minutes.

Yan Xiaoying used a rope again to pull me back from the Ghost Gate.

"Are you hurt? You okay? Yan Xiaoying was quite calm, looked at me with her body, and asked with concern.

"Fortunately, I was suddenly sucked into the water hole and hit the rock wall at the bottom of the water, and it was all skin trauma, so it didn't get in the way." I waved my hand.

"Although it is a skin injury, the wound is soaked in water and can easily become infected, so it needs to be treated." She said as she pulled the medicine box from her backpack.

Seeing her take out the disinfectant to clean my wound and be meticulous, I couldn't help but sigh and said a little lonely: "I'm really useless, you've saved me several times." I think I'm a dignified seven-foot man, I'm so, if it weren't for you and Jingmei, I don't know how many times I would have died! ”

Yan Xiaoying looked at me, blinked her eyes wide, and said softly: "You don't have to be discouraged, you have only been a mountain guard for less than a month, and it is understandable that you are unable to do some things. You must know that I have been in a coffin with my grandmother since I was a child, and it has been more than 20 years now, if I hadn't robbed you of the spirit baby fruit before, I am afraid that I will be the same as you now. ”

"Are you making fun of me or hitting me? There is no such comforting thing. I smiled wryly and said speechlessly.

"Then you'll be able to hit you with me."

Yan Xiaoying chuckled: "Sometimes blows are also a kind of motivation to move forward. ”

After she treated my wounds, she packed her backpack, put it on her back and said, "Let's go!" ”

I nodded, struggled to my feet, and then removed the whip from my back.

This mountain whip has been carried behind me since coming down from the copper pillar, and I have no chance to take it off and use it when I encounter the golden python.

"Xiao Ying, did you say that the golden python just now was really caught by the Gaoshan clan?"

"Shouldn't it? It was chained in a water dungeon, and it was supposed to have been trapped for quite some time. The reason why we saw it covered with stone skin before is probably that after it was locked, in order to reduce the passage of life and resist the erosion of time, it chose to sleep, and over time it turned into a stone carving. ”

"It's really hard to imagine how they managed to catch that golden python, I think it's even more terrifying than the one we encountered at the beginning."

"The cultivation path chosen by the golden python and the snake is different, the snake first cultivated the physical body, it evolved into a snake and then turned into a dragon, and only after the dragon was successful did it practice the spell. And the golden python just now is different, it started with internal cultivation, although it lost the opportunity to turn into a dragon, but it is very likely to become a legendary demon.

Yan Xiaoying paused, and then said: "Like the golden python just now, it is so huge, I am afraid that it has condensed the demon pill, and the reason why it can't perform the demon spell is probably because it is locked by iron chains. Did you notice that the chains were engraved with intricately incantations? ”
