524.Underwater Qiankun [Five Watches]
"Squeak!" At this moment, I suddenly heard an incomparably crisp sound as if a tree branch was cracking, and I suddenly saw that it was the branch where Elizabeth was gradually cracking because it could not bear the toss just now, and it was about to break!
And directly below Elizabeth, who was on the edge of that branch, was the terrible grass!
The branches split very quickly, and Elizabeth was clearly aware of what was coming, pulled on her mask, and jumped upwards with her waist bent. Before I could jump, I just heard "Choke!" With a crack, the branch where Elizabeth was was finally completely broken! Almost subconsciously, I dropped my head and made a completely upside-down gesture to grab Elizabeth who was about to fall!
"Don't panic, I'll pull you up!"
I said with difficulty because of the struggle, my whole face was extremely hideous.
"Don't speak!" I yelled, my feet were about to reach their limit!
At this moment, I suddenly heard a plop sound directly below us, and a female corpse happened to fall impartially in the terrible grass, and within a few seconds, I saw a row of sharp fangs suddenly appear in the grass, and swallowed the female corpse that accidentally fell into the grass at once!
The horrible scene that suddenly happened in my eyes made me see the horror of the grass beneath us. No wonder the Yin soldiers all took a detour, it turned out that there was a very terrible thing hidden in the grass. Because it happened so suddenly, I didn't even see what was full of fangs, could it be a ghost?
But my current situation does not allow me to think too much, because by this time my hands and feet are completely numb and unconscious, and I will not be able to support them. When the time comes, the two of them will definitely die if they fall into that bush!
Elizabeth may have been a little frightened at this time, and cried a little inarticulately: "Boss, let it go...... If we continue like this, we will both die...... I feel like there's something terrible in the grass, and I'm afraid we've been tricked. ”
"Elizabeth, don't think about it, hold on!" I said with difficulty. But I noticed that Elizabeth's body was somehow getting heavier and heavier, and her body was slipping more and more.
"Elizabeth, don't do anything stupid! If there's anything you miss, let me go back and face the others......" I was so anxious that my voice changed, but I couldn't stop Elizabeth, who kept falling.
Elizabeth shook her head, and at this time, I was still stepping on the fairy step, along the route along the way, jumped to another big tree, and Elizabeth at this time, also impartially gave me a princess hug, hugged in her arms, she blushed, and hurriedly said: "You ......"
"I was in such a hurry just now that I forgot that I knew how to spell." I said.
Elizabeth's face was ruddy, and she whispered, "Now, can you let me go?" ”
"Oh yes, yes, yes!" I embarrassedly placed Elizabeth on top of the branch, and we both looked down as we both stood still.
The female corpses that kept falling from the trees didn't seem to see the three of us, lined up one by one, neatly bypassed the terrible grass in front of them, and then jumped into the lake in an orderly manner like the skeleton warriors before them.
It looks like a sacrificial ritual is taking place, and it feels so eerie and terrifying.
The diving ceremony of the corpse of the ancient palace maid continues, and Elizabeth seems to have thought of something: "Those palace maids were all buried with Lord Dracula a long time ago, and they seem to be people related to Dracula......"
At this time, the diving ceremony of the palace maids was about to end, and I had a faint feeling in my heart that it was possible to enter the blood tomb only if the living people were mixed into the corpses of those palace maids. I wish I could believe that this is just my instinct, who wants to be in the middle of a horrible looking horrible-looking horde.
After we discussed it, it was decided that I would jump first, and Elizabeth would come second. After checking their things, seeing that there were only a few female corpses left on the shore, I no longer hesitated, and rushed forward fiercely, and came to a jump.
I almost bumped into a female corpse head-on when I jumped from a tree, and I didn't have time to think about it, so I immediately turned around and hugged Elizabeth, who was swooping down. After passing the terrible grass, I breathed a sigh of relief and dragged Elizabeth into the last of the female corpses.
The diving ceremony had been carried out to the end, and we followed closely behind a female corpse in front of us, hesitated for a moment, and still jumped into the lake.
The water is so cool that the turquoise water is clearly visible in the cool light. Since we didn't have diving equipment with us, I didn't go fast or slow so that I didn't waste too much energy, while Elizabeth didn't talk about diving at all, maybe she didn't have to breathe at all.
I also wanted to test if I had night vision in the water, staring at a female corpse in front of me and following closely behind.
The female corpse seemed to come to life in the water, burrowing into the water like a fish. In the water, the female corpses are still lined up regularly, and I feel like a group of mermaids.
Soon I followed the group of female corpses to a depth of less than one meter. The turquoise glow in the water was getting thinner and thinner, but I could see everything in the water. I was suddenly relieved, and it seemed that my heart was still very rebellious.
I don't know how deep the water is, and the more I dive, the more cold my body feels, and it becomes more and more difficult to breathe. I tried my best to hold back, if I lost the palace maid in front of me, it would be difficult to find the blood tomb hidden in the lake. Thinking of this, I can only endure it.
Just when I could barely bear it, I suddenly saw the female corpse in front of me turn a corner and stop.
My heart skipped a beat, knowing that the Blood Tomb was about to appear, but I also miscalculated, I didn't expect the road in this underground river to be so deep and closed.
After confirming the location of the female corpses, I only felt that my breathing was a little unbearable, after all, we have been underwater for three or four minutes now, and I have limits, but at this time, Elizabeth hugged me and kissed me on the lips indiscriminately, and she spat a breath of fresh air into my mouth, which relieved me.
At the same time, Elizabeth was smiling at me, looking very beautiful, she pointed ahead, signaling me to continue swimming, my lips seemed to still have Elizabeth's softness, at this time my heart moved, and inexplicably gained strength, and the speed also increased a little.
I saw that the place where the woman's body was staying was not even at the bottom of the lake, but at the base of the lake. I vaguely saw a recessed place under the water, and it was very dark inside, so I ventured into it and found that the space inside was too large to touch with my hands. I thought that this should be the place where the female corpse passed, not to mention whether it was the entrance to the blood tomb, I had to sneak in to find out.
First of all, I didn't go into the recess, and found that there was a passage hidden inside that was only big enough for one person to enter. There are aquatic plants growing next to this recess, and if I hadn't had my mind, I wouldn't have been able to find this passage with the water lighting alone.
Seeing the passage, I didn't care if there was danger ahead, and pulled Elizabeth to swim in. The sullen breath in my heart was getting bigger and bigger, almost like an explosion, and it was already six and a half minutes, and if I didn't find the entrance to the Blood Tomb quickly, it would be very dangerous for me to turn back immediately.
I had no choice but to hold Elizabeth's struggling hand tightly and rush into the passage. The passage is not very long, but it feels like I have walked for two centuries. Just when we could barely hold on, I suddenly saw a layer of blue brick stairs in front of me that had been corroded by the lake, and I immediately knew that we were not far from the Blood Tomb.
Seeing the hope of survival, I was so excited that I climbed the blue brick staircase with my hands and feet, but the staircase was very long, and we walked dozens of steps in the water before we could find the end.
At this moment, I suddenly felt the faint traces of ripples on my head, and my heart suddenly jumped violently, and I desperately accelerated my speed.
"Poof!"
I jumped out of the water like a blue whale spitting water, gulping in on the life-saving air on the water, and Elizabeth was even more depressed, choking constantly. I think if we had slowed down for another two or three seconds, I would have drowned in the water.
It took me a long time to come to my senses, and it was a place full of darkness. I didn't continue to pay attention, after all, it was a drain, so I didn't hesitate anymore, took out the waterproof package behind me, and turned on the bright light. With the glow from the bright lights, I could see that where we were now was a large pool, surrounded by two blue brick walls, as if it was a corridor leading to the underground palace.
Elizabeth and I climbed up the road. I obviously didn't expect such a building to be hidden in the lake, and the water in the lake couldn't be submerged here at all, so I took advantage of this time to put the bright light above my head, and my left hand had already changed into the shape of a long knife, and I slowly and cautiously made my way towards the dark corridor.
