145. Caused by water pressure
Originally, the space in this cave was small, but Sheng Shiyao was a little away from me before, so I thought he would come close and talk to me. When he raised his eyes, he was in front of his eyes, and saw that the red light in his eyes had disappeared, just now he must have used secret magic and urged the demonic nature again, but it seemed that he was under control.
felt very awkward to be looked at by him like this, and somehow gave birth to an impulse, pressed it close to his lips, and then said out of tune: "I didn't mean to." "After saying that, even I wanted to find a hole in the ground to drill, so I buried my head and didn't dare to look at him. Only to hear a low laugh spill out of his mouth: "That was on purpose?" The tone was soft, and it felt very ambiguous to my ears.
I just escaped death, and there was such a "small friction", although it was inappropriate and the place was not right, but I still felt a deer in my heart. I felt his big hand caress my waist suddenly, and I immediately woke up, and I won't ...... because I was impulsive Let's lead him to revive his demonic nature, right?
As it turned out, it was I who overthought it. Sheng Shiyao's palm supported my waist, lifted me up and began to crawl forward, in fact, I just rested for a while, and my strength has recovered a little, but I am close to him, surrounded by his breath, I don't want him to let go of his hand.
Because the distance is short, just over two meters, I soon arrived at the entrance of the whirlpool hole, and I poked my finger and was able to pass through. Still let me go first, he pushed behind me, and when my face broke out of the water, I immediately felt a sense of immense space that could no longer be obstructed, and at the same time I saw the ship, and the shore and everyone on board, all looking at me in amazement.
I didn't care about them, so I turned around and went back to pull Sheng Shiyao, and when he also got out of the whirlpool hole, someone had already run over, and when he looked at it, he found that it was the captain, and he asked urgently: "Why did you come out?" What about the islanders? ”
I don't know, I silently replied in my heart. At that time, the situation could only depend on the destiny of heaven, they were washed away by the water in the opposite direction, there was a whirlpool hole on this side, what awaited them on the other side was unpredictable, and at the speed of the water level, it was estimated that it was about to run out. Sheng Shiyao pulled me up, didn't look at the captain, and led me away in full view.
I thought he was pulling me out of the haven, but after he rounded the corner, he walked towards the hole where the dragon stone had broken before. I heard Zhou Tong's roar from afar: "Brother Yao, little sister!" When I raised my eyes, I saw the figures of Zhou Tong and Liuzi, because they were facing backs, I couldn't see their faces, but I could see that there was turbulent water gushing out at the entrance of the broken dragon stone, and my heart sank, and the water actually overflowed here!
And Zhou Tong and Liuzi stood by the entrance of the cave, screaming our names hoarsely, and they could almost imagine the faces of the two of them, they thought we were still inside.
When I got closer, I found that there were still four or five people lying on the ground, and when I looked at the costumes, I knew that it was our crew. But all of them had their eyes closed, some of their chests were slightly undulating, some of them seemed to be out of breath, and there were injuries on their heads and faces that could be seen, but the blood was washed away by the water and could not be seen, only hideous wounds remained. It should be that those people were washed out of the cave by the water, and they were likely to have fainted along the road, and when they went to the Broken Dragon Stone Gate, they hit it even harder, and several people were seriously injured and died, and then they rushed out of the hole, and even if Zhou Tong and Liuzi pulled them out, they naturally wouldn't care when they saw that it wasn't us.
I raised my voice to call out to them, but I don't know if I didn't notice it, or if the sound of water rushing out of the hole was too loud, and neither of them looked back. was about to raise his voice and shout again, but he saw Zhou Tong glance back, and then turned his head straight, but after two seconds, he turned back again, his eyes widened and widened, and the six sons next to him were still shouting at the top of his voice, and he took his shoulder and slowly turned his head.
At this time, Sheng Shiyao and I had already walked only twenty or thirty meters away from them, and we saw the two of them look at each other, and their expressions changed from shock and disbelief to surprise. Zhou Tong reacted quickly, he rushed to him, and asked in astonishment: "Why are you ......" pointed behind us, and looked back again, obviously not understanding how we came from the other side. It was difficult for me to explain for a while, and I was just about to ask about the situation of the water coming out of the cave here, when I felt that the strong wind around me was blowing, and Sheng Shiyao had already crossed over.
When I looked sideways, I found that another person had rolled out of the hole, and my face changed, and I didn't care about it, so I ran up. When I got to the front, I found that it was Jian Ningyi who rolled out. hurriedly stepped forward to support her, but did not faint, but lay on the ground and coughed violently, spit out a lot of water, searched her body, head and face, and found that there were no major wounds except for scratches on her hands.
Looking up at the front of the cave again, I saw Sheng Shiyao pulling Zhuang Yu and Yang Wenhao out of the cave respectively, both of them seemed to be slightly injured, especially Zhuang Yu, he was wound with a filament iron hook in one hand, and the back of the other hand was full of traces of being scratched by rocks, and then soaked in water, and the skin was turned over. It can be seen that when he was in the cave, he must have tried all kinds of methods to avoid body collisions at the corner of the cave like Sheng Shiyao.
Compared with us, the environment on their side is even worse, because the hole of the Broken Dragon Stone was dug below by me, so this position must be below the water level, it is estimated that they were washed to the opposite side of the Broken Dragon Stone by the water like those people, but because the hole is small, the water will gush out very quickly, and it takes a long time to hold their breath and toss in the water before they finally come out, so Jian Ning drank a lot of water, and vomited wildly as soon as he came out.
After asking, sure enough, the general situation is similar to what I thought, and the water level has completely reached the top at the same time as Jian Ning came out just now, but because the Broken Dragon Stone weighs thousands of catties and there is a hole at the bottom, the water pressure will not wash the stone away.
No matter how difficult it is, in the end, the five of us came out unscathed, which is a great luck in misfortune. The sheepskin sac that was originally going to be brought out doesn't know where it was washed away now, or not, after all, it's someone else's thing, Xiao can't think about it.
After Yang Wenhao probed the breath of several crew members, he shook his head at Zhuang Yu, obviously in this short period of time, even the person who was still breathing died due to his injuries. There are only four crew members here, except for us, and one of them should have been left in the cave forever. For a while, everyone was in a heavy mood, and Zhuang Yu asked Yang Wenhao with a calm face to notify the captain and others, and then call someone to come over to collect the bodies of these people.
While waiting, I asked why there was such a sudden gush of water, and not only so fierce, but so much so that the whole hole was submerged, where did the water come from?
Sheng Shiyao pondered for a while, and pointed to the sea, "From there." ”
I turned my head and looked, it was seawater, and I also knew that the smell of the sea came out as soon as I smelled it, mainly because how did it gush out from the top and bottom of the cave that was chiseled by him and Zhuang Yu? And the impact was so great that it seemed to have washed away all the holes that had been dug more than two meters deep, otherwise the two of them would not have been washed out of the hole directly.
"It's water pressure." Sheng Shiyao explained in a shallow voice, "Because it seems that the entrance of the cave is here, in fact, the entire cave is like a staircase winding down, and each floor down represents a crack, and the location of the heavenly altar is already below the surface." The dampness we see on the rock wall is not water vapor penetration, but a huge amount of water pressure squeezing the outer rock wall, and then partially drilling into the inner layer. We had to be glad that we had to dig a long way into the passage, and the geographical location at that time had already gone up a lot, otherwise the water washed out by the maximum pressure would have engulfed us in an instant, and we would not even have had a chance to struggle. ”
I was dumbfounded, it was a brush with death, but in retrospect, our situation was not far from it. At the time, I thought I had found a good way out of the hole, but I almost killed several people there. But the puzzle is that when we walked in the passage, we didn't feel any climb or descent, it was like walking on flat ground.
"It's because the magnetic field of space has changed, so people's sensory perception will also be biased."
It's the space magnetic field again! At this point, I had to be afraid of the word "magnetic field", which existed outside the laws of nature, but it was so strange and terrifying. That is to say, even if we destroy the Heavenly Altar, we have not destroyed this magnetic field, it is still dominating and controlling us. Sheng Shiyao shook his head and said: "It's not all, at least the barrier between the rifts has been broken, originally we couldn't enter other levels, and now the rifts in the entire cave are interconnected." ”
This is easier to understand, if we don't get through, we will be rushed to both sides, and we will only end up gathering at the place of the Heavenly Altar, and will not come out of the two holes. I thought about it, asked Sheng Shiyao if he was coming to the shadow moon, squatted on the ground and drew a horizontal "m", pointed to the point at the top: "Assuming that this is the entrance of the cave we see now, the first time Zhou Tong walked should be the top diagonal line, and when I entered the cave, I arrived at this fulcrum due to the staggered magnetic field." Raising his head and looking at Zhuang Yu and them, "From which point will you enter?" ”
"The third layer." Zhuang Yu replied expressionlessly.
I couldn't help but wonder why he was so sure, "How do you know?" Zhuang Yu ignored me, his face was gloomy.
Sheng Shiyao pointed to a certain location in the third layer, "Because the surface layer should be somewhere in the third layer, the air flow at the mouth of the whirlpool is caused by the water pressure under the surface layer, so it can block the water influx outside the whirlpool, and form a pressure barrier at the mouth of the rock formation." ”
I nodded, it made sense, that is, the Heavenly Altar was at the bottom of the fulcrum, so we inadvertently also walked to the third rift, and then the water pressure broke through the rock, and rushed to both sides. In the previous circle, it seems that the magnetic field affects people's judgment, thinking that they are walking in a straight line, but in fact they are walking back at a certain rock corner.
