Chapter 250: The River of Destiny

Placing Nika flat in the tomb, Zhou Yu rubbed the scorched earth and dry mud on his hands vigorously. Looking into the cave, he frowned.

The pit was dug wide, and Nika was lying in it alone, looking empty and lonely.

Or, I'll stay with her for a while. Zhou Yu didn't know if he had a brain disease, or if he ate too much salt and salted his pituitary gland, he jumped into the hole with a plop and lay side by side with Nika.

Not to mention, it's not cold at all, and there is a trace of heat surging up from the back, which makes people's backs quite comfortable, as if they have been treated with fire. However, you should be cautious about doing fire therapy, I heard that the boss of Tianjin fire therapy has been arrested, this year is really interesting, the fire therapy shop can be popular, and I also make up the resume of a domestic top university graduate, the most convincing thing is that there are also people who believe it, and they are eager to do it. What's wrong with the world? Am I supposed to go back to the moon? The moon is too close, Saturn, Saturn is a little better...

"Alas, alas, alas! Who, who! ”

Zhou Yu suddenly felt that there was a hand under him slashing, and he was sinking rapidly, and he was shocked and flapped with both hands but to no avail. I had to hold on to Nika, the last Samir on the prairie, please bless you!

With a bang, the ground sank, the earth and rocks flew, and the feeling of weightlessness quickly hit him, and the two fell down in an instant.

Plop, grunt, grunt, prun-

poured three saliva saliva in a row, washed the clay on his mouth and nose, and Zhou Yu instantly sobered up.

The water, the ground collapsed, and he fell into the underground water system, I don't know how deep it was, I don't know how big it was.

Fortunately, it was not pitch black all around, and the Metropolitan Governor, who was treading water under his feet and holding Nika in his arms, looked around nervously. This is a huge karst cave, an underground space in karst terrain, with rock walls and rock pillars embedded with fluorite, some of which are so large that they cover the entire root. This stone is very common in the Borderlands and has excellent luminescence. It's hard to imagine what the dark Dubancia would have been without the nourishment of fluorite.

Zhou Yu glanced at Nika in his arms, she was still sleeping peacefully, no breathing, no body temperature, smiling quietly. No matter how she looks at it, she doesn't look like a corpse, maybe because her beauty is fixed in his eyes, so even if she dies, she still bears the responsibility of interpreting beauty.

"Don't be afraid, Nika, I'm here. Let's go to the front and have a look! ”

There was a crackle on his head and from time to time there were clods of gravel and soil falling down, and Zhou Yu had to swim forward with Nika.

He had only slipped a few steps when he felt something under his feet. Stepped on, it was sturdy. Leaning down and touching it, it turned out to be a huge stone. After walking a few more steps, I actually stood on it.

The lake is isolated and boundless.

Zhou Yu put Nika on a large stone that was more than ten square meters exposed on the water surface, and looked at her with a smile, as if she was still alive, just asleep.

"You sleep for a while, I'll take a look around!"

After that, Zhou Yu plunged down one by one.

, Nima, forget that there are rocks around, and your head is full of bags. Rubbing his head, Zhou Yu continued to swim forward.

The underground space is very complex, with many forks and dead ends, like a labyrinth, with stalactites and fluorites on top and groundwater below. It's endless, there's no end in sight. Most of the governors did not dare to venture in, in case one of them could not enter and exit without paying attention, or because the surrounding recognition was not high, it would be a big trouble.

It is also more than ten meters high from the pothole where I fell just now, and the biggest problem now is how to find a way out. Even if she goes out, she can't leave Nika here alone, carrying her on her back, carrying her, even if she is tied around her waist, she has to be taken out.

Retreating to the boulder, Zhou Yu stripped himself naked, except for a pair of underwear. This underwear was sewn for him by the old pit himself, don't look at an old bachelor, the needlework is not bad, if he is castrated, maybe he can really play an Oriental undefeated or something. The water is not cold, it is warm and hot. It was warmer on the stones, and it is estimated that it also benefited from the underground hot springs, and it didn't take long for the clothes and pants to dry.

Inadvertently, his eyes linger on the map. The map is made of a special material, not afraid of fire or flooding, lying quietly on a corner of the stone at the moment, waiting for someone to pick it up, just like the beautiful Nika.

Map?

Slowly spread out, pouting his ass, Zhou Yu looked at it carefully and carefully. The location of Tianyin City, the back ridge of Tianyin City, here, oh we are here. Suddenly, as if struck by lightning, he sat down on a rock, his face full of incredulity.

It turned out that although there was no road on the map, there were vein patterns carved by himself with a dagger. This vein was marked by the puzzle he put together at that time, just like the human meridian diagram hanging on the wall in the Chinese medicine clinic, which is very complex and intertwined.

But the position at the moment is very clear, just above a meridian. Could it be that Cathy wants to warn the Five Clans and all the people of Dubancia that there is a vast underground hot spring system beneath this continent?

He had asked Cathy many times why he wanted to give the Five Clans a puzzle. She said that if the Fire King was provoked, he would most likely unleash the Heavenly Fire and burn every inch of Dubancia, just as he had destroyed Dixia. Until that day comes, hide in these locations on the map and you will be able to save your life.

Zhou Yu didn't care about it before, it seems that the escape path she was referring to was this huge underground space. Thousands of people can be hidden here, and the water can be cooled, and the people hiding here are like riding on Noah's ark, not only escaping, but also preserving hope for the survival of the Dubancia civilization.

I hit it by mistake and fell here. If what you expected is right, the river of fate that Sai Gao said is also here. But this river meanders and turns a thousand times, where to find the dragon's blood vial? Even if the vial of dragon's blood is found, Nika has no pulse, so what's the use?

Either way, give it a try. Tesla once said a sentence to himself, which made Zhou Yu remember it deeply, and he decided to take this sentence as his motto to guide him in the direction of progress, and worship reverently all day long.

There are no failures again and again, and success seems boring.

The sky is ruthless and sunny, and the sound is loud and precipitous. The city swallows the four seasons and sleeps the feathers, and the dismount does not know the peach blossom town. Zhou Yu lay on the stone, pillowed his arms, and repeated these four sentences over and over again, what is the meaning? Are there any tricks or hidden traps in there? In addition, since the priest said that the dragon's blood is at the end of the river of destiny, it should migrate in the opposite direction along the river, but with so many forks in the road, which one should be found upward? If you are aimless and reckless, you will not necessarily gain anything from exhausting yourself to death!

In any case, it's not the way to go out and lie here all the time. Zhou Yu made up his mind, tore his clothes into strips, tied them end to end, passed through Nika's slender arms, jade legs, and willow waist, tied a big zongzi, and then circled it twice, and tied it firmly on his back, like carrying a flower basket.

"Let's go, we've got to move on, you're pretty much rested, aren't you?"

Zhou Yu muttered to himself, he knew that it was impossible for Nika to hear it.

It is very difficult to carry a person on his back in the water, and even more difficult to exert force than to hold it, mainly because of the limited space and angle of the swing of the arms. But there was no way, in order to be ready for a long struggle, he had to free his hands. Every ten meters or so, Zhou Yu had to stop and rest for a while, but fortunately, the water temperature was high enough not to take away too much heat from him. If it was cold and biting well water, it wouldn't be long before he would die of hypothermia.

"Hold on, hold on, hey! Okay, I see the stones! ”

Every few hundred meters, there is a huge stone lying flat and smooth on top of the river, as if it were designed. A small piece of space protruding from the water was simply a life-saving straw, and Zhou Yu used his last strength to hold the corner of the stone, untie the rope and send Nika up. I flipped it over hard, and the dead fish lay on the rock, panting heavily, and I didn't want to get up again.

"I'm tired, I'm tired, Nika. Let's take a break here, shall we? ”

Zhou Yu closed his eyes, reached out, and gently held Nika's leaf. How he wished that girl could pull it out hard, or give himself a big mouth with his backhand. It's a pity that it's all extravagant hopes and wishful thinking. He laughed at his whimsy, aren't all teenagers dreaming?

Even though he ran away for half his life, he still came back as a teenager.

Persistently hurrying, Zhou Yu carried Nika on his back, like an old man who returned to his roots, and went all the way east with one breath. Finally, referring to the location of the map, he should have traveled to the bottom of Tianyin City.

Under the Celestial Sound Castle!

Everything in front of him suddenly opened up to him, this was the end of the cave, it seemed to be the end of the water, the stones under his feet were getting denser and denser, and in the tightest places there were only small streams of water happily escaping, ding dong into the river and rushing away.

He finally reached the end of the river.

"Good boy, Nika, we're finally here. You see! ”

Zhou Yu held the buttocks on both sides of Tonica, wrapped her legs around her crotch, and tightened it with a rope knot, for fear that she would fall.

The end of the karst heralds the beginning of darkness. Here, there is no more fluorite, and further down there is a need to light a torch for lighting. Zhou Yu took out the tinder and chestnut wrapped in oilskin paper from his arms, and made a torch with the sword of atonement in three strokes.

Everywhere the torch reaches is a long underground passage, which stretches as far as the eye can see, and I don't know where it ends. At this time, the question of whether to enter or not began to bother Zhou Yu. Wait, wait. He called himself off.

"Nika, why are there so many grooves in this wall? Can you tell me? ”

Zhou Yu walked to the end of the stone staircase and stood completely on the flat ground. The huge walls on the left and right are so high that you can't see the top when you raise the torches, and the width is about ten meters in the middle, and it is no problem to drive three liberation trucks side by side. These walls, smooth and finely polished, do not look natural, but must have been processed.

Who would process such a passage in an underground cavern, whether this is a tomb or a base left over from the Great War of Heaven and Earth, it seems that the answer can only be obtained by continuing to walk. Thinking about it, his feet slipped and he almost fell, and in order to maintain his balance, Zhou Yu had to throw away the torch and support Nika behind him with both hands. It doesn't matter if you fall, you can't let this girl lose her face.

The torch was thrown, a parabola went out, and it smashed against the wall impartially. The snort startled the Metropolitan Governor. The whole wall suddenly burst into flames, spreading from the outermost side to the front, and the fire was staggering in size. Zhou Yu fixed his eyes and saw that the torch happened to hit a groove on the wall, these grooves were carved parallel to the wall, every few tens of centimeters, in the shape of a neat track, and the burning thing inside was crackling, judging from the taste, it should be chestnut oil.

A track ignited, not only forward, but also quickly spread up and down, and in a few seconds, the entire wall seemed to be covered with a fire net, and under the shroud of fire, the black hole was brightly lit and unobstructed. Zhou Yu was secretly frightened, obediently, how did he feel that there was a sense of inviting you into the urn? Should I ignite this chestnut oil or not, and not rush out of Godzilla or Freddie to kill himself!

Despite being full of doubts and anxiety, he still concocted the same method and lit the rope oil on the wall on the right side, and the two nets of fire reflected a man with a woman on his back very clearly, and the two lonely figures but snuggled together tightly stretched for tens of meters, hundreds of meters, until they disappeared and hid in the earth.
