Chapter 495: Going Against the Water
When the two stone dragon eye beads were pushed forward by Leng Yue, I immediately heard a "boom" sound from far and near, and then the entire dragon hall began to tremble violently.
My mood at this time is not whether I am happy or annoyed, it is very complicated.
Change will either bring a glimmer of life in a desperate situation, or accelerate the arrival of a desperate situation.
Until that last moment comes, no one knows what the outcome will be.
The roar came very quickly, enveloping the entire Dragon Hall in an instant, and everything around it trembled with the trembling of the Dragon Palace.
The already broken dragon porcelain slammed into each other and became more shattered, and the gold objects on the ground were slightly deformed in the violent collision with each other, and the countless gems were also knocked out of the cracks in the process......
It was as if all of us were standing on a ship battered by a fierce wind, swaying and falling to the ground if we weren't paying attention.
The shaking of the Dragon Hall was still intensifying, and we saw in a panic that the huge stone pillar in the center began to sink, slowly, but as far as the eye could see.
As the stone pillar sank, a turbulent stream of water poured out from the empty pitch-black interior, frantically crashing into the top of the stone pillar and bursting down in all directions.
I looked at this scene, my mind was blank, I had lost the ability to think, and I could only shake back and forth with the Dragon Palace.
What should come will come after all.
Looks like we're all going to be drowning in this. I want to laugh now, I want to laugh because I'm so uncomfortable, and I'm finally feeling hopeless.
The second floor of the Dragon Hall is flooding at this time, and from the spiral staircase, we can clearly see that there is already water pouring in on the first floor.
No matter how big this dragon hall is, I'm afraid it won't last long.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of water running from behind me, and then I felt someone running out of me.
When I looked closely, I realized that it was Cold Moon, and it was running up the spiral staircase to the first floor at great speed.
"Why are you going?" I hurried over and asked loudly at his back.
Leng Yue didn't answer me, and quickly disappeared into the darkness, but from the sound I could tell that he didn't run out of the hall, but ran to the depths of the first floor of the Dragon Hall.
Is he going to look for something?
After thinking about it for a while, I immediately guessed what Leng Yue was going to do, because the depths of the Dragon Hall were the place where the dragon was placed in my memory.
Sure enough, I suddenly heard a "click" clatter coming from that direction.
Not long after, Leng Yue actually dragged a large section of cylindrical dragon metamorphosis back, conservatively estimated to be three to four meters long.
After running up the spiral staircase with difficulty, he threw the snake in front of me, pale and breathless, as if he wanted to say something, but he could not spit out a word because he could not lift it in one breath.
Liu Fatzi hurriedly said beside him: "What do you say is the matter with you, if you are not so greedy, we are all going to die here, what are you doing with this thing?" Take it to the time and the Lord of Yama bragged about x, saying that you have seen a dragon? ”
Leng Yueli also ignored Liu Fatzi, and after trying to adjust his breathing, he said to me very solemnly: "Make it into a bucket." ”
When I heard him say this, my eyes lit up, but then I frowned.
It's a big stretch that all of us can barely squeeze into, but with the tools we have at hand, what are we going to do to make this thing into a bucket?
I stared at the dragon for a while, thinking that in this case, I am afraid that I can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, fight!
With this in mind, I quickly called everyone else over, and everyone brainstormed ways to seal one end of this dragon metamorphosis.
We can't think about sealing this thing on both sides, after we go in, the weight of the hundreds of catties will inevitably make us unable to float, and then the water pressure will suffocate us to death inside.
After a long discussion, we finally decided to take out all the spare self-inflating life jackets, plug the side of the dragon molt first, and then let them inflate, so that we could barely seal the side.
By the time we were done, the water was already coming up, and the water line was rapidly climbing upwards, and soon it was reaching our thighs.
Time was running out, and in order to improve our chances of survival, I asked everyone to throw away all their backpacks and fill up their self-inflating life jackets.
By the time we were done with all this, the water was already up to our waists.
Next, we just stand in the water and eat and drink as much as possible to ensure physical strength and calories. If we are lucky enough to rise to the surface and be able to breathe air before we suffocate, the biggest challenge we will face then will be how to fight the icy water.
As the water line gradually rose, our bodies slowly floated, and the top of our heads got closer and closer to the top of the temple.
Leng Yue raised her hand and gestured in the direction of the huge water inlet at the top of the temple, and then all of us pulled the dragon that floated on the surface of the water and swam towards the scattered splashing water.
By the time we reached the entrance to the water, the water line was close to the top of the temple, barely enough to accommodate the giant dragon.
Leng Yue took the dragon molt from our hands, and joined forces with Shen Dali to plug it out of the mouth with the fierce falling water, and buckled it upside down on the top of the huge pillar.
"Quick, get in!"
I hurriedly shouted at everyone, and then we pushed Yang Qing and Zhao Zitong in first, and the others followed one after another.
When only Leng Yue and I were left, the snake was already full of people, and at most I was afraid that it could only be squeezed in by one person.
My heart sank, and I said solemnly to Leng Yue, "You go in." ”
Leng Yue nodded, then came to me, forcibly pushed me into the dragon metamorphosis, and said to Shen Dali, "Hold it." ”
Shen Dali was stunned for a moment, then reacted to what was going on, and hurriedly stretched out his arms to hold me tightly, so that I couldn't break free.
"What are you doing? You're going to die, you know, don't know...... Force, let go of me! I shouted anxiously, but in vain.
"I'm not going to die." Leng Yue gave us one last look, then let go of the hand that was holding the dragon.
Immediately afterward, I felt the dragon metamorphose vibrate violently, and then I distinctly felt that the dragon metamorphosis had risen some distance and continued upward.
After a short time, the dragon finally couldn't withstand the water pressure, and fine cracks appeared on the surface.
Seeing that the situation was not good, I hurriedly reminded everyone to cover their mouths and noses, and then I heard the sound of shattering into my ears one after another, and then the dragon molted into countless small pieces, so that we who were originally hugged together were instantly scattered.
In the cold water, my body was uncontrollably flipped and moved quickly, but fortunately I had an inflated life jacket on my body, which made my body quickly stabilize and then quickly float upward.
I didn't last long, and finally I didn't hold my breath, choked on a large mouthful of water, and then there was cold water pouring into my mouth and nose, and I couldn't stop it.
As I floated upwards rapidly, I could already perceive the area getting brighter, but the water was so muddy that I couldn't see anything.
My consciousness was blurring, and before I fell unconscious, I vaguely seemed to see a hand suddenly reaching out to my side.
