Chapter 229: He's Not She
"You take this dagger with you, it's the only dagger that won't freeze, I tried it the last time I came, you might be able to use it underwater with you.
And this, this rope too, you tie one end to yourself, and Kate and I hold the other side, this water is so clear, if you have anything, we can pull you up. ”
Ling untied the dagger set that was usually tied to his leg, and tied it to Zhen's arm along with the dagger inside. This dagger saved herself from the mouth of the nautilus when she was in the sea in the fourth area, which was very important to Ling, so Ling gave this to Ling, hoping to be safe.
"It's still thoughtful Xiaoling, although I don't know if it will be useful, but you wear this." Kate takes off her necklace and puts it on for Tin. The pendant of the necklace contained the core of the meteorite that the Red Moon had given to the three people.
"Can you turn around first?" Ling said.
"Huh?"
Ling and Kate looked at Ling suspiciously.
"That...... I'm afraid of getting wet, and I'll have to get dressed when I come up......" said embarrassedly.
"Oh! Then you change it yourself. Ling pulled Kate and turned her back to her.
Seeing that the two of them turned around, they took off their clothes one by one, folded them and put them on top of Kate's backpack, and then re-tied the dagger and rope that Ling had given him. He tried the water with his feet, then turned into a silver wolf and jumped into the lake.
Ling and Kate heard the sound of water before turning to see Ling who had entered the lake and was diving.
"He's really not wearing anything......" Kate looked at all the clothes she had on top of her bag.
Ling looked at the rope tied to her waist and fixed on the shore. This rope is always carried on the body when I am still on the ZERO mission, the total length is 1000 meters, and there is a logo every 100 meters.
The rope is constantly being pulled out.
"Now the position of the Xuan is 300 meters underwater." Ling said.
"300 meters? But he's still diving? Is the lake so deep? Kate asked.
Indeed, as far as the human eye can see, the surface of the lake is only 50 meters at most, but I didn't expect it to be so deep......
"What's wrong with him?" Kate noticed that the underwater Xuan seemed to be struggling in pain.
Ling also saw it, so she pulled the rope.
The underwater Ling had already turned into a human at this time, and one hand waved a dagger at his side, as if he was fighting something! But the two people on the shore couldn't see anything else except Zhen, could it be that Zhen had frozen underwater for too long and had hallucinations.
"Pull him up!" Kate said to Ling, but when she looked at Ling, she saw that he was loading his gun. "What are you going to do?"
"There should be something around us that we can't see." Ling said and aimed at the underwater Ling.
"You, see?" Kate asked.
"Nope!"
"Hey! Xiaoling, don't hurt my little sweetheart. Kate grabbed Ling's gun and didn't let him shoot.
Ling looked at Kate without saying a word......
At this time, the underwater Yu waved his hand to the two people on the shore.
"He's waving at us." Kate saw first.
Ling put away her gun and looked at Ling underwater.
She had already put the dagger away, and then pointed at herself, indicating that she was fine.
The two people on the shore also breathed a sigh of relief and waved their hands to say hello.
Seeing the two of them waving to him, she suddenly turned around and continued to dive.
"Why did he turn around all of a sudden?" Kate turned her head to ask Ling when she saw her unnatural movements.
He ...... Could it be harmful...... Shame. Ling can't tell what kind of feelings she has for Ling, Kate may think of him as her mother Rosa, but she is still very uncomfortable.
"Shy? Why? ”
"How do I know!"
The two didn't say anything anymore and watched as the underwater Ling continued to dive.
At this time, the rope showed that Ling had dived to a position of 500 meters.
"He's not Rosa. I don't think of him as Rosa, although I had a little bit at first, but now I'm completely sure that he's not like her. Kate said suddenly, for no reason.
Ling turned her head to look at Kate.
"Although I don't know why he looks the same as Rosa, he is not her, their personalities are different, and I have confirmed it in the days when I was in the four circles with Xiaoxi."
"Why are you telling me this?" Ling was puzzled.
"Stupid Xiaoling, of course it's Dad, I know you're very awkward now."
"I'm not awkward because he looks the same as her...... this is a fact, Ling is really not because of this, to be honest, my impression of my mother comes from the words of others.
"What is the reason for Xiaoling? Xiaoling is my precious child, the one underwater, and the person I want to live with and protect in the future, I don't want anything between you. ”
"What kind of conversation is this, I don't mind what kind of life you have." Ling was a little angry, but she didn't know what to be angry about.
"Xiaoling is really still a child." Kate shook her head.
"Huh?" Ling doesn't know what Kate is thinking, in his eyes of more than 400 years old, he may be a child, but in the eyes of normal people, he is already in his thirties, not a child!
"He's really skinny...... Kate said to herself, ignoring the look of her desire to beat her up.
Ling knew that now was not the time to get angry, and she also turned her head to look at Ling underwater.
The sign on the rope shows that he is still about 500 meters, and although it looks like he is still diving through the water, the rope is not as fast as it was at the beginning. At this time, it had been 50 minutes since she was launched.
"He's going to be fine, right?" Ling asked Kate worriedly.
"If something happens, he'll let us know."
At this time, the underwater Xiao turned around, raised his head and waved to the two people on the water, indicating that he was at the end, and beside him was the largest icicle.
"He's waving at us, is he?" Kate looks at Ling.
"It took about 600 meters of rope." Ling checks the length of the rope.
"Ling, what do you see Ling doing?" Kate said, pointing to the underwater Tsuna.
I saw that Ling first circled around the big icicle for half a circle, because it was inconvenient to have a rope on his body, so after turning half a circle, he turned around and turned back to the place where he started, and then touched the icicle as if he was looking for a place to start.
Fortunately, the lake water is clear, and Ling and Kate can clearly see Ling's movements on the shore.
He ...... It's really a man...... Why does he look so much like my lovely Rosa when he is a male? Kate simply crouched by the lake.
"You know his gender."
"How can Xiao Ling speak. I'm not old yet! Isn't it just 400 years, I'll wait! ”
Ling heard Kate say this, and she didn't know how to answer.
I saw that the underwater Yi held a dagger and stabbed the icicle in the same place a few times, and then the whole person lay on the bottom of the lake.
The two men on the shore also didn't understand what was wrong with him.
"I just thought, if Ling really got the Ice Heart, how are we going to get it back?" Kate asked.
"Open the door directly to Zhuge Xun's location."
"Look I'm stupid."
"When Kaoru is safe, you can treat yourself too." Ling refers to Kate's less arm.
"Well, there's no hurry." Kate digressed. "What do you think Xiao Ling is lying there? Is it not physically exhausted? It's been an hour. ”
"An hour and thirteen minutes, you look at him here, I'll look for something." Ling pointed to her backpack.
"Go ahead. By the way, bring me something to eat. ”
"You're still underwater."
"He's underwater, it doesn't mean I can't eat, I have to conserve my strength, in case something happens to him, I can save him."
Ling felt that what Kate said also made some sense.
"And then." Ling walked over to her backpack and pulled out a bag of jerky and threw it to Kate.
Kate took it.
"Don't let Xiao Ling see that he's working hard, but I'm eating well."
Kate turned her back and put a piece of jerky in her mouth and chewed it.
"Where's Xuan?" Kate turned around to see what was going on underwater, but found that the other end of the rope was missing!
