Chapter 127: Underwater Copper Coffin
"Since the three masters have decided to go in, then I will accompany them to the end!" Wu Shaohong said firmly.
Qu Qian patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Old Wu, you are the greatest hero of our Qu family. Don't worry, after this matter is successful, I will definitely not treat you badly. ”
"Three masters, you have won the award, what I have done is just a matter of internal affairs, over the years, you have been very good to me." Wu Shaohong said.
Qu Qian nodded slightly, looked at Fan Shiqiang and Li Baoqiang, and said, "Baoqiang, you and Xudong go back first, let people treat his injuries, it's enough for the three of us here." ”
In fact, Qu Qian had already seen that the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and Lingshi-level characters in Heishui Town were going in, and it was estimated that it would be difficult to even protect themselves.
Li Baoqiang was a little unwilling to leave like this.
But he didn't dare to go against Qu Gan's wishes, so he had to help Wang Xudong walk towards the car and go back to the hotel first.
Qu Qian discussed with Fan Shiqiang, "I and Shaohong will go in in a while, Shiqiang, you will meet us outside." ”
Fan Shiqiang's expression was also nervous.
To them, the Sun family is extremely mysterious, and no one knows what else is weird in the town.
The three of them walked towards the river and jumped into the water together.
I saw three waves swimming towards the wall.
Cao Xi asked me, "What should we do?" ”
I frowned and looked at the Blackwater River, what was hidden in the river was definitely not just a floating corpse.
I have a spirit whip to protect my body, so it's not a big problem, but I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of Cao Xi.
I said to her, "Xi'er, if you stay here, I'll follow them in and see what is going on." Whether it works out or not, I'll be back as soon as possible. ”
Looking at me, Cao Xi said resolutely, "I don't worry about you going in alone." Don't underestimate me, I'm not what I used to be, and I'll be able to protect myself. ”
Cao Xi is very stubborn, and what she says is generally difficult to change.
I pondered for a moment before saying, "Alright then, you can come in with me." ”
Cao Xi showed a smile on his face and gently squeezed my palm.
At this time, Qu Qian and the others had already swam to the other side of the river.
They quietly walked to the wall, and Qu Qian glanced at Fan Shiqiang and told him to stay where he was.
He and Wu Shaohong jumped up, and the speed of the two of them was about the same, almost like two big birds, jumping lightly on the wall.
After looking inside for a while, they jumped in together, and then they didn't move again.
Fan Shiqiang vigilantly observed the movements around him.
If you go in from nearby, he'll definitely find out.
Cao Xi and I quietly got up from our hiding place, and then walked along the Heishui River in the other direction.
The Blackwater River circled around the town, and the water was rushing everywhere.
We walked around to the other side of the fence and saw that there was no one around, so the two of us jumped into the water.
Because we have seen those floating corpses, we are all more careful, each of us holds a strong flashlight in their hands, and we can see things clearly within a few feet of distance.
The Blackwater River was much deeper than we thought, with a rushing current flowing past us.
The two of us are inseparable, and we are extremely careful.
If there is any problem, you must protect Cao Xi first.
We had just swam to the center of the river, and Cao Xi suddenly pointed down, as if he had seen something.
After practicing animal control, her eyes are much sharper than mine.
I don't know what she found, so I slowed down.
Cao Xi turned around and dived underwater, and I followed closely behind her.
The Heishui River was more than ten zhang deep, and suddenly a huge bronze coffin appeared in the field of vision.
The coffin was nearly several times larger than an ordinary coffin, and in the water around the coffin, there were many figures erected.
They were so dense that I couldn't count how many there were.
Seeing them, I felt a little tingling in my scalp.
Around the coffin, there were countless floating corpses. It turns out this is their home base!
I glanced at Cao Xi, and her face was full of horror.
She didn't expect that we would actually break into the base camp of floating corpses.
The floating corpses stood motionless at the bottom of the water, looking down from above, more like screws, surrounding the bronze coffin tightly.
Cao Xi was very bold, and seeing that the floating corpse did not move, she continued to dive down.
This is the bottom of the Heishui River, which is full of large ashlar stones, as if it were artificially made.
The coffin was laid flat at the bottom of the river, and there were many strange-looking facial patterns carved on the coffin.
At the same time, a thigh-thick chain protruded through a hole in the coffin wall.
On the ashlar floor, a large copper ring is fastened, and the chain is wrapped around it.
At the other end of the chain, something seemed to be tethered.
As we get closer, the contents seem to feel our breath.
The chains moved slightly, making a rattling sound.
At the same time, I felt an incomparably powerful aura diffuse from the inside of the bronze coffin.
That breath alone made me feel a deep sense of fear from the bottom of my heart.
At the same time, the floating corpse that had been closed suddenly opened its eyes together.
Stared at by hundreds of pairs of scarlet eyes, I got goosebumps on my body.
I pointed to the water.
I have a spirit whip body, but I don't want to mess with these things just yet.
Cao Xi understood what I meant.
Although she was curious about what was inside the coffin, she also knew that there must be something terrible tied to the other end of the chain.
We tread the water hard and floated towards the surface.
It was only a short time since I swam out that I heard a rumbling sound from the bottom of the water, and the coffin was opened through a gap, and a red-haired paw came out of it.
The nails of the claw were more than a foot long, twisted like a short sword.
With the appearance of the claw, even the floating corpses stopped moving, still closing their eyes and standing around the coffin.
We didn't dare to look any more and hurriedly floated to the surface.
We stuck our heads out of the water one after another, and Cao Xi's face was bloodless.
The scene just now scared her enough.
I looked around, and it was unusually quiet, and there was no movement at all.
We weren't far from shore, and I said to her, "Let's go ashore." ”
Cao Xi nodded, and we arrived on the shore.
It was north of the town, and I looked up at the wall.
The wall is more than two feet high, and this kind of wall is not difficult for me at all.
I asked Cao Xi, "Can you go up?" ”
Cao Xi said with a smile, "I'm a spirit warrior level now, such a high wall is just a piece of cake!" ”
Cao Xi took a few steps back, then flew up and jumped.
Her body was very light, and she stepped on the wall, and jumped up more than a foot high again.
Two ups and downs, already at the top of the wall, she reached out and grabbed the top of the wall, and then climbed up, she turned her head to look at me.
I didn't need to exert so much effort, as soon as I stepped on the ground on my toes, I jumped up more than two feet high and landed gently beside Cao Xi.
Cao Xi's face was full of envy, and he said, "It seems that I am still worse than you." ”
In fact, there is a big gap between us.
We leaned over the fence and looked out into the town.
The size of the town is much bigger than I thought.
The most conspicuous thing is that there is a circular waterhole in each of the four directions of the town, southeast, northwest.
The pools were almost the same size, three or four hundred meters in diameter.
In the middle of the town, there is a larger waterhole.
The waterhole is six or seven hundred meters in diameter, and the five waterholes form a huge circle.
All the houses were built around these waterholes.
Cao Xi said softly, "This is really a very strange place. ”
I nodded, the Sun family originally gave people a very mysterious feeling.
Although the town is large, it is pitch black all around.
There were no lights in the town, it looked like a dead city.
If we hadn't seen people coming and going during the day, we would have thought that this was a town that had been abandoned for a long time.
We saw the figures of Qu Qian and Wu Shaohong flashing by a waterhole.
When they jumped off the wall, they didn't know where to start.
In the middle of the town, there is a small two-story building, which is obviously much better than the other houses.
The one who can live in the spacious courtyard must be the most powerful person in Blackwater Town.
If I'm not mistaken, it should be Sun Daoxian's home. Qu Qian also seemed to realize this, and he and Wu Shaohong were approaching the courtyard.
I whispered to Cao Xi, "Let's go check it out too." ”
The two of us jumped off the fence and ran towards the compound.
But before I could get to the courtyard, I saw the lights in the courtyard turn on.
Cao Xi and I quickly stopped and hid behind a gatehouse.
