Chapter Eighty-Four: The Deep Pool of Leeches

We were both afraid for a while, if we were still on the cliff at this time, even if there were no griffins, we would inevitably become kites.

The point is that we have always thought that even if there is a yin wind cave, the yin wind will blow after the moon and the sky, and no one expected that it would blow at this time.

"If this wind keeps blowing, we won't be able to get out, so why wait, when will we have to wait?"

Yang Shu's face was eager, and he naturally still thought about his little Dao aunt in his heart.

To be honest, it's not just him, I'm worried about it.

Of course, it's not like he is.

"After the blessing is raised, let's see if we can go down."

According to the records of the Xuanmen Demon Classic, it has become a pangolin python of the climate, and its nests are all up to the heavens and down to the nine secludeds.

This may be an exaggeration, but it is true that they are accustomed to burrowing down to get water, and to suck up the wind.

The abyss of the toad cellar is covered by clouds and mist all the year round, but the upper hole of the nest of the pangolin is just above the cloud layer, it should not be a coincidence, with the terrifying suction in the mouth of the pangolin just now, if there are birds passing near the entrance of the cave, most of them have entered its belly, but I don't know how the griffin did not suffer, it is really a disaster and a long life.

Based on this, there should also be an outlet to the water source under this snake's den.

I took advantage of the rest of the stall, the wound of the tiger's mouth on both hands was coated with hemostatic glue, and when the stroke in the hole was a little smaller, the two of us worked together, and it took a lot of effort to drill the head of the pangolin, and took out a python bead from the bottom of the frontal bone that exuded a pale cyan luster, and the diameter was the size of a sea bowl.

It's a lot of fun for both of us now, and it's worth it to get such a blessing even if you work hard!

Usually I always use the ghost king's heart as a unit to measure the value of Fulu, and this python bead is worth ten ghost king's hearts!

That's right, this thing has such a powerful effect, after all, it is the rumored demon who can turn into a dragon, and the consumption required by that huge body is also amazing, and they can go without eating for a year or even a few years, and its root is also on this python bead.

"With this thing, senior brother, you can prove immortality!"

"How can it be so easy, if the master is still here, it may be possible to act in his way."

When the master left, he was at the peak of the Holy Realm, and he was only one foot away from the door.

Speaking of which, we are both a little uneasy.

Poplar sealed the python beads in a plastic bag and stuffed them into his backpack, and I summoned back the Seven Worms, and then I cleaned up my mood and went down the cave.

To be honest, if it weren't for this kind of place, I wouldn't have given up the scale armor of the pangolin and used it as a vest, which is better than any body armor, but the point is that I don't have time to get it now, and it's too cumbersome to carry on my body, so I have to give up.

We groped deep along the snake cave that circled down with our flashlights, and after walking for three or four minutes, we finally didn't have to squeeze together with the corpse of the pangolina, which was dozens of meters long, and made me sigh again that I was lucky.

However, having been blessed and avoided by the griffin and the wind, the injuries on my hands were worth it.

Along the cave deep into the ground, because all the way guarded, walking is not fast, the road passes by the snake's nest, is a huge cave, the space is enough to be worthy of a large conference hall, I don't know whether it is tossed out, or the natural cave is occupied by it.

We followed the wind and came out of the other side of the snake's nest, and sure enough, we saw an underground pool.

The space in the waterhole is a bit like a cave, but there are no stalactites or anything like that, and if I don't open my senses, I can't see the other side of the shore with my eyes alone, but the water in the waterhole looks calm and waveless, but the water is dark, and I will be afraid to stand near the water.

But the key point is that the exit is just across the waterhole, and when you open your senses, you can see the hole in the rocky shore on the opposite bank, which is more than three meters high.

Armed swimming was a subject that I was often trained in when I was in the army, and the turbulent river was coming, and this waterhole was not a problem.

But my senses can't penetrate deep water, and I'm not sure if there are any turbulent undercurrents or lurking water monsters underneath.

Yang Shu was anxious and was about to go down after changing into a light diving suit, but I stopped him.

"Sit down and see later."

If there is something strange, you can always see a hint of it when you look closely, although you are in a desperate heart, but at the bottom of this toad cellar, in the face of the evil water that does not know the depth, no matter how cautious and cautious it is, it is not too much.

Poplar had no choice but to sit down on a stone on the shore at my command, and shine a flashlight on the water in annoyance.

"What's there? I think you are suspicious of the dark ghost, but the dignified knife man is afraid of a puddle of stinky water! ”

I ignored him and searched the surface of the water, and for some reason, the water just gave me a feeling of unease.

But half an hour passed, and the water was not happy.

My patience was also exhausted, and I changed into a diving suit: "I'll pass first, and I'll give you a signal when I get to the other side." ”

Poplar nodded repeatedly.

I waded into the water and walked into the pool, but just a few steps into the water, a cold feeling hit from the soles of my feet, the yang energy gushed out from my feet, and a white wave exploded in the water.

With a force under my feet, I leaped backwards and fell back to the shore.

Poplar, on the other hand, had thrown out two boning knives in quick succession, snorting twice and sinking into the corpse, shaking the corpse for a while.

But there was no movement from the corpse, and I frowned and said, "Take a hook and take a look." ”

Yang Lin threw out his hook and dragged it to the shore, but it still didn't react, and the two of us slowly approached.

It was a male corpse, slick, of medium stature, thin, who had been soaked in the water for an unknown amount of time, his skin puffy and pale, and the area where he had been injured by a claw hook and a boning knife was bubbling with water.

"How can there be drifters in this place?"

Drifter means floating corpse.

"It should be a member of the little devil exploration team, who knows if it was infighting or how he died, it was obviously stripped of his clothes and thrown into the water, not necessarily thrown here, there may be a dark river under the water, and it is normal for the corpse to float down the water from the ground."

"But there's something wrong, I wonder if you noticed it?"

The poplar tree was so troubled that he was going to die, how could he still be in the mood to think about this, and shook his head silently when he heard the words.

"Judging by the degree of soaking of the corpse, it shouldn't be too long to die, but the water gushing out of the wound, why didn't any blood come out?"

Even if the corpse has been buried in the corpse field for many years, there will be corpse blood, not to mention that this is relatively "fresh".

"Could it be that he died of excessive blood loss?"

Poplar frowned and guessed.

"Let's flip it over and take a look."

At this time, the corpse was lying face down, and the poplar pulled the hook and turned it over.

This turn, we both couldn't help but gasp, looking at it from the back it was normal, I didn't expect the front to be so miserable.

The predecessor of the corpse, from the face to the chest and abdomen, was densely covered with oval red scars the size of eggs, roughly counting dozens of them, and there was a hole the thickness of a small thumb in the middle of each scar, which was as deep as the lungs, and even the internal organs could be seen!

"What the hell, Hidden Weapon?"

I shook my head helplessly: "I haven't seen it, maybe it's some kind of means of the Onmyoji?" We'll have to be more careful. ”

I said that, but I always felt wrong in my heart, and combined with the attack in the water just now, the uneasiness was even stronger.

"In this way, let's use him to make a trip, although people die big, but the little devil is not a person."

As I spoke, I scribbled roughly on its back with my finger blood, drawing an entry-level talisman of the Daomen, the Red Sun Talisman.

This spell is painted on the body with the blood of the index finger with the most yang energy, and it has the effect of avoiding the evil spirits and ghosts, but from another point of view, this kind of charm will make people yang vigorous, and it is like a bright light in the dark.

Although the yang energy of this corpse has long been dissipated, drawing the talisman can make it look like an ordinary person with slightly weaker yang energy.

After drawing the spell, I had Poplar hook the claw hook into the corpse's ankle and push it back into the water.

With a push, the corpse slowly floated towards the middle of the pool.

Just when it floated out less than three or five meters, the corpse suddenly shook, and then, I saw that the surrounding water surface seemed to be boiling a pot, crackling, as if a group of piranhas were frantically tearing the corpse, and those things under the water were so powerful that it was almost out of the water.

"Quick, drag back!"

Poplar exerted force in his hand, and the corpse slid back quickly.

When he came to the shore, the poplar pulled his claw hook violently, and the corpse of more than 100 catties was pulled into the air by him and thrown ashore.

The corpse was covered with a group of disgusting-looking things, like a hundred-fold magnified leech, as thick as a child's arm, one or two feet long, and a shuttle-shaped body with an egg-sized suction cup at the front, which was sucking wildly on the corpse.

Although the corpses were long gone, they sucked out all the stagnant water, and their bodies soon bulged into balls, and a dark red liquid was faintly visible under the translucent brown skin, apparently they had sucked blood not long ago.

Yang Shu and I were relatively speechless, and our hearts were creepy.

If we swim in rashly, the end will probably not be much better than this corpse.

I snorted coldly and gave him a blank look: "How is it?" You're swimming there! ”

He looked embarrassed: "It's okay if I'm wrong, but you should hurry up and think of a way, is it possible to go back the same way?" ”

"There's a way, but you'll have to take some risks."

As I spoke, I raised my foot and stepped on a leech that had fallen off, and in the center of the suction cup, there was a finger-thick cone-shaped bone spur, which could be divided into three pieces, and there was a barb on the edge, this thing could obviously pierce the Yang Qi body and other defensive means, and once it pierced the body, it was difficult to pull it out unless it loosened its mouth.

Yang Shu saw that his heart palpitated, and after he shuddered, he gritted his teeth again: "Okay, take risks, take risks, what do you say!" ”

I laughed, "It's time to test your true skills, gather all your breath, and swim over with your breath." ”

"That's what you do? Brother, I think you're playing with me. ”

I shrugged my shoulders: "Otherwise, do you have to wait for your little Dao Gu to turn into a resentful spirit to find you?" ”

Actually, I can't help it, but if there is a little possibility, I don't want him to take risks.

But who made him have good physical strength and fast speed, crossing the nearly 300-meter black water pool, and he could really only let him take the lead.

Some people may suggest using corpse talismans to attract leeches, but not to mention that it is impossible for a corpse to last that long, even if it can, with the density of leeches just seen, how much can it attract?
