Chapter 0212: The Aftermath of the Tribulation
"Xiaoshuai, are you okay? Now we have no choice but to take the risk once. You'll follow me in a moment, and I'll try to protect you. ”
I said with concern.
Zhao Xiaoshuai barely squeezed out a smile and nodded slightly, indicating that he could still persevere.
So, we waited a little longer, and after making sure that neither of the corpse demons had time to care about us, we hurriedly ran to the edge of the waterhole, and then jumped in.
In an instant, the cold water swallowed me up completely, and the biting chill almost made me unconscious.
But fortunately, my body was strong and I had True Qi in my body, so I quickly adapted to the temperature in the water.
But others were not so lucky.
Especially Xu Huan, who doesn't know how to be watery, held a big breath in his mouth, which made his mouth bulge, but it was even more cumbersome.
In fact, Zhao Xiaoshuai is not much better.
The cold temperature of the water made him pale as paper, without a trace of blood.
Seeing this, I hurriedly stretched out my left and right hands, grabbed Xu Huan and Zhao Xiaoshuai respectively, and then activated the true qi in my body, constantly transmitting the true qi through the palm of my hand to the bodies of the two of them.
With the nourishment of true qi in their bodies, the two of them finally felt a lot better.
At the same time, I secretly opened my yin and yang eyes and began to look for the entrance to the underground waterway.
Fortunately, there is no endless road, and after some searching, I quickly locked on to a crack in the bottom of the Tan.
Bubbles can be seen gushing out from time to time, presumably the entrance to the underground waters.
Let's hope it's not far away, or we'll all be finished.
At this moment, suddenly two zombie soldiers were swept into the water by the giant salamander.
They are corpses and don't need to breathe at all, so they can still attack and injure people in the water.
After seeing a few of our prey, the zombie soldiers began to paddle awkwardly towards us.
Seeing this, I hurriedly gestured and asked Ma Jiaqian to take Xu Huan and Zhao Xiaoshuai to the stone crack first.
I pulled out the sword I had acquired in the zombie cave and stabbed them hard.
Unfortunately, there was so much resistance in the water that I couldn't exert much strength at all.
Even if he has a sharp blade in his hand, he can't successfully hack these Iron Kings to death.
Fortunately, they are wearing bulky armor and fall into the water, which is actually very clumsy to move.
I thought about it for a moment, and suddenly I thought of a good idea.
Without hesitation, I quickly took off my shoes, took out the laces from my shoes, and then swam to the feet of the two zombie soldiers, tying their legs firmly with the laces, making them unable to move.
The legs were restrained, and the two zombie soldiers suddenly fell to the bottom of the pool, unable to move.
But there is no such thing as a blessing, and there is no single line of misfortune.
At that moment, I saw zombie soldiers falling into the water.
I was so shocked that I didn't have time to waste any more time, so I quickly turned around and swam towards the stone crevice.
Swimming to the crack of the stone, I saw that Ma Jiaqian and the others had been waiting for a long time, and they kept spitting out bubbles in their mouths, obviously unable to hold on.
I made a gesture and followed the group into the crevice, and then together I blocked the crevice with a boulder.
To make sure nothing went wrong, I pinned the sword in my hand between the cracks in the rocks to act as a crossbar to prevent the boulder from being washed away.
Anyway, if we can't find a way out, we will definitely die, and there is no point in keeping this sword.
After doing everything, I injected some True Qi into each person in turn, so that they could continue to maintain the oxygen level in their bodies.
Then I led the way, along the underground river, and kept going.
I swam for about ten minutes, during which time I replenished each person's True Qi several times.
And with the continuous consumption of true qi, I have reached the limit of what I can bear.
The underground channel in my eyes finally began to stretch upward, and a faint light appeared on the water above me.
It seems that there is no end to the road, and hope is just around the corner!
In the end, we were exhausted to the extreme, and finally managed to poke out of the water.
For a moment, the long-lost air and the warm sunshine enveloped us, and we couldn't help but be ecstatic.
However, surprises are yet to come.
Quickly adapting, I looked around and vaguely felt that the environment in front of me was somewhat familiar.
In the end, it was Xu Huan who took the lead in identifying what this place was.
She tugged at my arm and exclaimed in surprise:
"This ...... Isn't this the same waterhole where we barbecued? ”
Not to mention, fate is really good at playing tricks on people.
It turned out that we had gone around for a long time and returned to square one!
It's just that who would have thought that the waterhole where we are now and the waterhole of the cave are unobstructed with each other.
It's just that there is a rolling mountain on it, and in the depths of the mountain there are not only ghost brides, but also zombie caves and giant salamanders that have cultivated to perfection.
Swimming to the shore, exhausted, we didn't care about whether it was clean or not, and lay on the ground to enjoy the pleasure of the rest of our lives.
At this time, a familiar figure not far away was carrying a bucket to the waterhole to fetch water.
As soon as I saw the four of us looking like chickens in soup, I couldn't help but be so frightened that I didn't even notice that the bucket had fallen to the ground.
"Horse team, night Shaohui...... You guys...... How did you get to this point? What the hell is going on! ”
The person who came was Ma Jiaqian's subordinate He Shuyao, she stared at her big round eyes and a shocked expression, as if she had seen a ghost.
Ma Jiaqian waved her hand weakly, but she couldn't say anything for a while.
Soon, Xiao Wei, Bai Xue and others also rushed over when they heard the news.
Seeing us all wet and wounded all over the place, my expression was shocked.
However, they reacted in time and hurriedly returned to the camp to get towels and a change of dry clothes.
It was then that I realized that there seemed to be one person missing.
It turned out that Zhao Xiaoshuai, who had been silent, had fainted inexplicably since he went ashore to rest, and there has been no movement so far.
"Xiao Shuai, Xiao Shuai!"
Everyone hurriedly took Zhao Xiaoshuai to the car, and then sent him to the hospital.
About three hours later, Zhao Xiaoshuai was successfully sent to the largest Ping An Hospital in Yindu.
Soon, my mother and Uncle Ma also rushed over when they heard the news.
After learning about the strange and bizarre cave horror of our group, even the well-informed Uncle Ma became not calm.
"The ghost bride of the Yin Marriage has become a giant salamander, a zombie army of more than 100 people, and a mysterious ancient attic...... Obediently, what kind of bad luck did you go, why did you meet all night? ”
Uncle Ma said incredulously.
I also smiled helplessly.
After all, that's just the way it is.
However, this time it was already a high incense to escape alive.
"I really hope that this child Xiaoshuai can be safe, if there is something accident, how should we explain it to the senior brother!"
Mother said with a worried look on her face.
I comforted my mother on the side:
"Don't worry, Xiaoshuai just suffered a little skin injury, plus he was too frightened, he must wake up soon."
But unexpectedly, as soon as I finished speaking, a doctor in a white coat came out of the emergency room.
He came to us with a sad face, as if he wanted to say to us:
Sorry, we tried our best......
