Chapter 161: The Golden Mask
My gaze was instantly fixed there, and I was deeply attracted by the huge floating platform.
After passing through the bronze gate, I found myself in a circumferential canyon cavern, surrounded by a sinking dark river, and the huge floating platform, which stood there as if it were suspended in the air, with no supporting structure visible underneath, but it was quietly suspended and unmoved.
The searchlight emitted a cold pillar of light, hitting the edge of the pontoon, which was a rock structure, and the whole pontoon platform was like an awl erected under the water, with a mottled surface, with a simple and desolate atmosphere, and the direction in which the floating corpses swam was rushing towards the pontoon.
Could it be that there is something on the floating platform that can attract floating corpses?
The doubts in my heart deepened, and I hesitated for a long time, kicked my calves on the ground, and followed the floating corpse to the floating platform.
The pontoon was suspended at a height of five or six meters from the bottom of the water, and I paddled slowly, getting closer to the pontoon little by little, and just halfway through the swim, my waist tightened, and I felt a force, as if dragging backwards.
Who's dragging me from behind?
I was so frightened that I was in the water, and as soon as the cold sweat came out, I was taken away by the dark river water, and my whole body was stunned, and I felt a cold chill surging from the back of my head, afraid that the sound just now was a hallucination deliberately created by the ghost in order to lure me into the bronze door.
Maybe I made a mistake when I walked through the bronze door, and the goblin was ready to attack me!
A trace of ruthlessness flashed in my heart, how could I not see the appearance of the enemy, I was afraid to pee my pants first, even if it was a ghost, Lao Tzu would first peel off the skin to see what this ghost looked like.
I pulled out the * on my waist, and without looking back, I slashed backwards by feeling, and the blade of the knife broke through the water, which was hindered by the current, giving me a very jerky feeling.
I looked back, only to see that the safety rope tied to my waist had straightened and bounced. It turned out that the rope was in the end.
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, damn it, scare myself!
Even though it was underwater, I also subconsciously made a cold sweat action, unfastened the lock on the safety rope, and looked back at the floating platform, under the strong light, the water surface suddenly emptied, and the floating corpse that was originally swimming in front of me disappeared.
I can't help but wonder, where did all the floating corpses go? The doubts in my heart made me involuntarily raise my head, and once again fixed my gaze on the floating platform, from my angle, I couldn't see anything on the floating platform, only a blue and misty cold light, as if emanating from the floating corpse.
It seems that by the time I turned around to untie the safety rope, the floating corpses were all concentrated on the platform, no wonder I couldn't see it.
I already feel a stuffiness in my chest, and my years of underwater work and rest have taught me that I can still hold on underwater for about half a minute at most.
This is my limit, I quickly paddled to the edge of the pontoon, touched my arms to the surface of the light rock formation, and jumped up with the help of force, my body had not yet stepped on the pontoon, but I was shocked by the scene in front of me, I opened my mouth to happen, but choked on a bubble.
I actually saw the corpse brother!
He was on all fours, prostrate on the ground, carrying me on his back, as if he was prostrating on something, and less than two meters above his head, there was a stone platform, all square, and on the stone platform, very calmly lay a corpse, wrapped in a green robe, as if sleeping.
His long hair floated with the swaying of the current, as if the aquatic plants were swimming quietly and slowly, and his face was covered with a mask carved in gold, and his face was covered with a gold carved mask, and his hands were on his chest, which looked quite peaceful.
Looking at the face covered under the golden mask, my heart suddenly shook strongly, and my heart tightened, and I felt a strong feeling of dizziness.
I've seen this corpse, just in that weird dream before, he was dressed almost exactly like the mountain god in the mountain temple!
When I fell into a look of horror, the corpse brother who was prostrate and prostrate also noticed me, and suddenly stood upright, turned his stiff neck to my side, and his aqua blue eyes showed a trace of astonishment.
He didn't seem to expect to meet me here, and I didn't expect to meet him, and on all sides, he stood up and tried to approach me, but here, the corpse, which had been lying very peacefully on the stone platform, opened its eyes in vain, and its gaze was directed at me.
That pair of eyes, like two stingers, instantly pierced my heart.
I felt a strong feeling of suffocation, the feeling of panic and shortness of breath in my chest made me very uncomfortable, and I couldn't hold on any longer, at this time, the corpse brother rushed in front of me, there was no expression on his numb face, but his stomach twitched twice, and he made a hoarse voice, "You...... Why...... Here? ”
I really wanted to tell Brother Corpse why I came back here, but I couldn't make any sound when I opened my mouth wide underwater, coupled with the strong feeling of suffocation in my chest, I was tortured to the point of almost losing consciousness, and when my mind was hazy, I heard Brother Corpse's voice again, "Run......
He stretched out his dry hand and pressed it to his chest, and I felt a very heavy force pushing me through the water, and I actually fell off the platform again.
My body fell frantically, much faster than I could float up on my own, and in a few seconds I hit the ground, my mind was in a mess, and I barely looked up, and saw the corpse brother standing on the edge of the floating platform, looking at me quietly with his hands behind his back, and beside him, but standing the corpse with a golden mask on his face, still fixed on my face.
"Brother corpse, be careful of the zongzi......" This is the voice in my heart, holding my breath to the critical point, my brain has begun to dizzy, I opened my mouth, I can't jump out of a word, the lack of oxygen for a long time has made my consciousness fall into slack, subconsciously picked up the rope around me, and pulled it twice.
This is the code that I agreed with Chen Yun and them, pulling the rope twice, the people on the water pulled the rope tightly, and my body was swung up with the lifeline, quickly passed through the bronze gate, and was dragged to the surface of the water by a huge force.
The fainting feeling in my mind made me unable to make any other movements, so I could only subconsciously look at the bronze door that was getting farther and farther away from sight, and suddenly saw that in the bronze gate, a dazzling strong fire burst out in vain, and then, the stones were chaotic, and the water flow of the entire underground dark river was trembling, and layers of thumb-sized bubbles appeared, like boiling water.
Syllable!
The sound of breaking water resounded above my head, I felt the fresh air again, my chest stretched violently, the salty air broke into the dry lobes of my lungs, I coughed violently, my body went limp, I burrowed into the water and choked, at this time a hand reached out above my head, slammed me along, and pulled me onto the airbag cushion, and my blackened vision was focused again.
"Little pumpkin, why have you been in the water for so long, what is the shock just now......" Ge Zhuang slapped me in the face and shouted.
I coughed up a mouthful of cold dark river water and said weakly, "Brother Corpse...... Zongzi ......"
Rushing!
Before I finished my intermittent words, countless bubbles the size of bowls had been lifted in the water, and rows of air waves had opened up in the boiling dark river water, rolling in the water, forming countless turbulent currents that pushed flat.
