[Today you are going to marry me] Chapter 08

Xiang Hanyu listened carefully, and realized that it didn't look like the sound of some small animal crawling.

It's a bit like the sound of water flowing fast. Suddenly, Xiang Hanyu had a bad premonition.

"Not good! It seems that a lot of water is coming from the passage over there, and now we must get out of here at once, or we will ...... when the water floods this place It's over, it's too late, Jingbao, take a big breath and hold your breath! Pull my hand tight. ”

Xiang Hanyu said suddenly and urgently, because he had already smelled a breath of water, which came quickly from not far away.

Although it was pitch black in front of him, the sound of "booming" water was getting clearer and clearer, and as the oncoming damp and cold air rushed on his face, Xiang Hanyu was finally sure that a large amount of water was pouring into the passage.

In a hurry, Xiang Hanyu hurriedly grabbed the hand of Jing Bao next to him, shouted loudly, and immediately took a deep breath of air after speaking, and held his breath.

Quiet Bao listened to Xiang Hanyu's words, and heard the sound of water not far away, and immediately reacted, and hurriedly followed what Xiang Hanyu said, and also took a deep breath, and held his breath.

As soon as they closed their mouths, an extremely strong current of water hit them, and they instinctively closed their eyes.

The two subconsciously hugged each other so as not to be swept away by the current.

Soon they were completely submerged. The powerful impact of the water washed them all the way to the stone wall of the cave.

Xiang Hanyu hugged the Quiet Treasure tightly in his arms, and although his back hit the stone wall hard, the Quiet Treasure in his arms was safe and sound.

Since the water was still swaying back and forth, their bodies were also swaying very strongly with the current.

During this time, Xiang Hanyu hugged Quiet Bao tightly, for fear that she would be swept away by the current.

After about a few dozen seconds, Xiang Hanyu felt that the water seemed to have stabilized, and when he opened his eyes, he was so surprised that he almost opened his mouth to shout.

Thankfully, he held back, otherwise he would have choked on the water.

Originally, he thought that it should be dark in the water, and when he opened his eyes, he couldn't see anything.

However, at this moment, the water is not only bright, but also very clear. Not only that, but it's also exceptionally beautiful.

I saw that there were many unknown fish swimming leisurely in the water, and the most amazing thing was that the whole body of these fish was glowing.

Although most of the body area of each fish is white, the head and tail are colorful, and due to the large number of fish, the whole water is dazzling and colorful, which is very pleasing to the eye.

However, Xiang Hanyu understands that now is not the time to appreciate this, because they can't hold their breath all the time.

The top priority is to get out of here as soon as possible and swim to a place where you can surface, otherwise you will not be able to hold back for a while, and once you choke on the water, you will definitely die.

Fortunately, there are a large number of glowing fish in the water, and Hanyu can use these lights to see his surroundings clearly.

He struggled to find his way, wrapped his arms around Quiet Treasure's waist, and swam towards the passage that led to the stone house that Quiet Treasure had mentioned earlier.

After swimming into the entrance of the passage and swimming some distance further, Xiang Hanyu realized the reason why the quiet treasure was able to roll from the stone house to the bottom before.

It turned out that this passage was very steep, and the surrounding area was still very smooth, and once you fell into it, you couldn't grasp anything, so you had to slide out of the passage all the way to stop.

Before, he had planned to climb back the same way as Quiet Treasure and Quiet Treasure.

Now it seems that this is simply impossible. If it weren't for the sudden gushing of water filling the cave, he and Quiet Treasure wouldn't have been able to enter the passage.

Xiang Hanyu glanced up and found that this passage was so long, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

Because he felt that he was about to lose his breath, and the quiet treasure in his arms also opened his eyes at this moment, and almost shouted in surprise when he saw the countless glowing small fish swimming in front of him.

After spitting out a few bubbles in his mouth, he quickly covered his mouth and nose tightly with his hands.

Now it is difficult to ride a tiger to Hanyu, and there is no way to retreat, so he can only continue to go upstream along the passage.

He had to gamble, he gambled that the water didn't flood the stone house, so that as long as he swam out of this passage with the quiet treasure, there would be air again when he arrived at the stone house.

As for how long the air in the stone house can keep them breathing, they can only be left to fate, as long as they find a secret passage out of the stone house before the air in the stone house is used up, they will be saved.

Just after Xiang Hansheng couldn't hold it back anymore and choked a few mouthfuls of water in his mouth, he finally surfaced with Jing Jing Bao in his arms.

In front of them, there was a stone house with an open door, and the stone house was also flooded. Fortunately, the water did not submerge the stone table, which was only about fifty centimeters high.

Although the two stone benches were submerged, they were still more than twenty centimeters away from the stone tabletop, so the ancient book on the stone table should not have been soaked in water.

Thinking that the ancient book should be safe and sound, Xiang Hanyu also breathed a sigh of relief.

The two of them spit a few mouthfuls of water and took a few breaths of fresh air, Xiang Hanyu quickly lifted Quiet Treasure out of the water, and after Quiet Treasure hurriedly climbed into the stone house, Xiang Hanyu also climbed up to the stone house exhausted.

The skeleton next to the stone table had completely fallen apart due to the impact of the previous current, and it floated on the surface of the water scatteredly, and some of the heavier ones sank to the bottom of the water.

Xiang Hanyu helped Quiet Bao bend over and vomit a lot of water, and then helped her to the edge of the stone table and sat down.

Xiang Hanyu gently patted Quiet Treasure on the back for a while, and Quiet Treasure came to his senses.

Seeing that Quiet Bao was fine, Xiang Hanyu was relieved. I picked up the ancient book on the stone table and read it.

The title of this ancient book is indeed "The Love of Life and Death", and it is indeed a method for cracking the mechanism in a tower.

After casually flipping through the ancient books and handing them to the quiet treasure who was resting on the stone table, Xiang Hanyu began to look carefully at the stone house, trying to find a way to leave.

It turned out that many ancient words were faintly written on the surrounding walls. The font is not neat, and it seems to be written in a hurry. It's a bit like biting your finger and it's written, and due to age, the blood stains have turned black and the weathering has become lighter.

Because it is an ancient text, many words are incomplete, and Xiang Hanyu studied it for a long time, and he only roughly understood the meaning.

According to the description inside, Xiang Hanyu concluded that it was written by this skeleton man. And it was written more than 300 years ago.

It turned out that this skeleton man was a young man surnamed Xiang, who was the son of a rich family before his death.

He and his twin brother stumbled upon a mutilated map to find the stone house and the ancient book.

originally thought that with this book, the two of them could enter the Fengwee Grottoes, get the method of immortality, and live forever in the world.

Who knows, once you enter this stone house, you must leave as soon as possible. Because the stone house will automatically close after an hour.

When the stone house is closed, it will be trapped inside forever unless someone outside activates the mechanism again.

However, the two brothers were exhausted when they found the stone house, and when they saw the ancient book "Love of Life and Death", they were so excited that they sat on the stone bench and rested while studying.

Completely oblivious to the warning on the mutilated map in their possession, which was to leave the stone house within an hour.

When the door of the stone house began to close automatically, they reacted and hurriedly rushed towards the stone gate.

At the moment when his younger brother rushed out first, he suddenly turned around, raised his foot with all his strength, and kicked him into the stone house again, who had just rushed to the door.

By the time he got up again and rushed to the gate of the stone house, it was too late. The gate was completely closed.

When he shouted to his younger brother outside to activate the switch again and let him out, he didn't expect his younger brother to ruthlessly tell him to let him live the rest of his life in the stone house with peace of mind.

Because his younger brother has long been thinking about monopolizing all the property in the family and his beautiful sister-in-law.

That's why I had a bad idea and decided to trap him in the stone house forever.

At that time, the map was kept in the hands of his younger brother, and he only had the ancient book left in his hand, so his younger brother thought that with the map in his hand and the memory of studying "Love of Life and Death" together, he was fully capable of entering the Fengwei Grottoes alone.

That's why he ruthlessly left his own brother and the ancient book in the stone house, and left alone to find the Fengqi Grottoes.

When he could no longer hear his brother's voice outside the stone house, he knew that his brother would not be able to let him out.

Then he tried all kinds of methods to open the door of the stone house from the inside, and soon the air in the stone house became thinner and thinner, and he was finally on the verge of death, and before he died, he bit ten fingers of his tragic experience and hastily wrote it on the stone walls around him, hoping that someone would see it in the future and seek justice for himself.

Unexpectedly, it was not until more than 300 years later that the quiet treasure who accidentally fell into this place inadvertently activated the mechanism, and the stone house was opened again, and his tragic experience was known to future generations.

After reading this crying text that was once written in blood, Xiang Hanyu can imagine how sad and helpless this skeleton man was before he died.

At the same time, he was also a little desperate, originally he and Quiet Bao came to the stone house not only to get the ancient books, but also to escape from here.

Now that the ancient book has been obtained, it is found that there is no secret passage to leave this stone house. If you want to leave, you can only go back the way you came.

The only passage outside the stone house is currently full of water, although it is theoretically possible to escape from swimming out of that passage, after all, those bats can fly out, and people should be able to get out.

However, they were not fish after all, and who knows how long it would take to swim out of that passage, and it is very likely that they drowned before they could swim out.

In other words, it is really in a desperate situation at the moment. Staying in the stone house will suffocate due to running out of air, and leaving the stone house and entering the passage will lead to drowning.
