Chapter 331: Underground Escape

Why did he come to Sunrise Castle, Ziyang didn't know where to start.

The past half a month or so has been a dream for him, and now looking back on it, it feels like a dream.

As soon as he entered the ancient strange pond of Qinhan Village, Ziyang seemed to have arrived in a magical different world, from overlord salamanders to gargoyles and eyeless dragons, these creatures were unheard of and unseen. There is also the mysterious mural, revealing a history that has been hidden for thousands of years, the descendants of the Qin army who disappeared mysteriously met Kublai Khan's cowardly Xue army in the wild land of Baiyue, and jointly built a magnificent palace in a huge sinkhole...... Any one of these discoveries alone can shock the scientific community.

The ruins of the sinkhole, the nine tripods of King Yu, and the legend of the Palace of Eternal Life...... Many historians have not been able to get a glimpse of these strange and magnificent scenes in their lifetimes, but they have encountered them all in just a few days.

Of course, there is also the last grave keeper - Qin Xianghe.

In order to seal the deflated underground palace, Qin Xianghe, with the determination to die together, detonated the explosives in the secret passage, and buried Ziyang, Lao Wang, and Su Rui hundreds of meters underground......

When the explosion stopped, the three looked at each other. Fortunately, the underground structure of Qinhan Village is quite solid, and the explosives did not collapse the entire underground palace.

The frightened Zi Yang suggested that everyone immediately return from the original path and join Jin Guoqiang above.

The old king next door squatted on the ground and refused to go, gargoyles, overlord salamanders, and eyeless dragons...... Any level can easily kill them, on land Lao Wang is still sure to jump twice, in the water he has a brute force but no land.

"Just stay here, waiting for Jin Guoqiang to save us." At the thought of the huge and ugly body of the Overlord Salamander, Lao Wang couldn't help but tremble.

Zi Yang was also angry when he saw his cowardice: "All the diving equipment has been brought down by us, how can Jin Guoqiang come to save us?" Do you expect him to dive 70 meters with his bare hands? ”

"The explosion was so loud, Jin Guoqiang and they must have heard it, he would definitely find the hole and dig the tunnel."

"My brother, are you running out of oxygen in your brain? The entrance of the cave is at least a few hundred meters underground, what did Jin Guoqiang rely on to dig us out? Gnawing with your teeth? ”

"I don't care, I'm not going to go into the water again anyway - don't you see that worm in the water? Lao Tzu didn't work so hard to grow so big to stuff it between his teeth. The old king sat down on the ground and began to play tricks.

Zi Yang looked at Su Rui helplessly, he knew in his heart that Lao Wang was reasonable, and if he returned the same way, it would basically be nine deaths.

But staying here is dead and dead.

What to do?

"Go on!" Su Rui said with a resolute expression:

"The waterhole here is living water, right? That is to say, there must be an undercurrent underground, and the fact that there was no water in the waterhole of such a large rainfall in the valley in the past two days indicates that the underground waterway is wide enough. The Overlord Salamander and the Eyeless Dracous have been trapped here for hundreds of years, indicating that the waterway is not wide enough for them to escape. So, as long as we can find the right waterway, we can dive out along the undercurrent. ”

"This is a way out, but there is a problem," Wang patted his cheek and stood up, "what if there is not enough oxygen?" ”

Su Rui looked at Lao Wang's barometer and said, "Your rebreather should be able to support more than twelve hours, and my and Ziyang's nanoclothes can last for twenty hours, if we move fast, it should be fine." ”

Lao Wang nodded, "I'm much more relieved when you say that." ”

"Oh, Lao Li!" Lao Wang looked at Zi Yang affectionately and said, "In case I don't have enough oxygen, can you help me breathe mouth-to-mouth?" ”

Ziyang rolled his eyes and turned his head to ignore him.

"Xiao Su, Lao Li can't count on this guy, you will save me, right? Don't worry, I will never stick my tongue out! ”

Su Rui smiled bitterly and shook his head, Lao Wang's nerves are not ordinary, it has come to the time of life and death, this guy is still in the mood to joke.

Still, maybe he's not kidding. I don't know how long the underground water channel is, and even if they can find a suitable one, will they have enough time to dive out?

Time is life, the three of them cheered up, and began to continue walking along the gap, Su Rui took out a few energy bars from the sealed bag, and each person divided one, Lao Wang ate it up in three or two clicks, and almost swallowed the plastic paper.

After walking around in the gap for more than ten minutes, the three of them suddenly smelled a smell of gunsmoke—not far from the site of the explosion.

Sure enough, after continuing to walk for a while, a hole of dozens of square meters appeared in front of me, and a piece of rubble was paved on the ground, it seemed that this was the place where the explosives were detonated, and the hole under the rubble should be the entrance to the exit.

"Hey, you said that if we remove all the stones, will the hole be exposed?" Lao Wang jumped over in three steps and two steps, picked up a fist-sized stone and weighed it, "Give full play to the spirit of Yugong moving mountains, and besides, we don't have to move the whole mountain, just dig out the tunnel." ”

"Well, good! You move."

Ziyang squatted down and observed a stream on the ground, the water was slowly flowing forward, indicating that it was an undercurrent. If you follow the current, there may be a way.

Lao Wang pouted and moved a few stones, panting and raising his head to call for help, but found that Zi Yang and Su Rui had already gone away, hurriedly put down the work in hand, and chased after him scolding.

"Bastard Lao Li, I'm entertaining Lao Tzu again!"

"You are stupid, you don't have to think about it, with an explosion of this magnitude, the tunnel would have collapsed a long time ago, and with just two claws, you would have to pick a pangolin for several months."

"Then you can tell Lao Tzu that Lao Tzu is a waste of physical strength."

"Are you the kind of person who can be reasonable?"

"When did Lao Tzu not listen to you?"

……

The two of you chattered back and forth, and the quarrel did not delay walking, the deeper the water under the feet became, and seeing that it was no longer up to everyone's knees, Su Rui suddenly shouted softly: "Shut up!" ”

Zi Yang and Lao Wang had a tacit understanding to keep their mouths shut together, and looked at her in a daze.

"Listen, there's a voice!" Su Rui said in one ear.

Zi Yang and Lao Wang stretched their necks, and they couldn't see anything in front of them, Zi Yang stretched out his hand to turn on the diving lamp to shine in front of him, and suddenly, a white object flew from the air and quickly rushed towards the three of them.

"Be careful!" Lao Wang kicked Zi Yang down, and the dog-legged scimitar in his hand struck upward, and the white thing happened to be stabbed by him.

"Wo Cao! You communiqué for personal vendettas! Ziyang covered his stomach and got up from the water, this kick caught him off guard, and Ziyang choked on several mouthfuls of water face down.

Lao Wang ignored him, and picked up the white object and watched it with interest: "What is this?" Like the white rabbit, I don't know if I can eat it......"

The dogleg scimitar pierced its chest, and black-brown blood dripped down the handle of the knife. Su Rui shone the light on the head of the white object, and it suddenly raised its head and hissed with its fangs full of fangs, and the old king shook his hand in fright and threw it into the water.

"Oh my god, what the hell, why did you have a mouthful of dog teeth!"

The monster struggled twice in the water, and slowly surfaced, belly up, and died.

Zi Yang looked at the monster floating in the water with a numb scalp, he had never seen such a creature, a thin tail, hairless, gray and wrinkled skin, sharp beak and fangs and claws. It's like a little ghost out of hell.

Zi Yang shuddered involuntarily, fortunately, Lao Wang kicked himself out just now, if he was pounced on by this thing, it would be absolutely no problem to tear off a piece of meat.

Su Rui frowned and observed for a while and said, "It seems that this should be a water rat." ”

"Don't make trouble, big sister, I've seen water rats, is there such a big one?" Lao Wang splashed the water a few times, and the white corpse swirled in the water a few times, and slowly floated forward along the current.

Looking at the swarthy waterway in front of him, Ziyang hesitated, it was obvious that the water was going down from here, but suddenly rushed out such a thing - can this still go inside?

When he was still hesitating, Su Rui had already raised his feet and walked in, Zi Yang had no choice but to follow, when he passed by the water rat, Zi Yang turned his head and didn't dare to look, Lao Wang stroked a handful of water on his neck from behind, and pretended to be a ghost screaming in that "babbling", Zi Yang almost turned around and slapped him in anger.

The further you went, the more turbulent the water became, and the river gradually narrowed, and the water reached the chest of everyone. Su Rui turned around and said to the two: "Now it is certain that this is a main road, and the water flow below is relatively fast, and there may be undercurrents, everyone be careful." ”

Su Rui put on the mask of the nanosuit and motioned for Lao Wang to also put on the diving mask. The further they went, the steeper the terrain became, and the water rushed so that people could not stand steadily, and the three of them held hands and held on to the raised stones on both sides to barely stabilize their figures.

After moving forward for a few dozen meters, Lao Wang suddenly panicked and motioned to Ziyang to look ahead. Zi Yang followed Lao Wang's gaze, and couldn't help but complain, there was a wave in front of him, and it seemed that the water was very strong.

Zi Yang stretched out his hand and pressed down on his chest to signal Lao Wang not to panic, the more calm he had to be at this time...... Lao Wang was in a hurry, grabbing the stone wall next to him with one hand, and dancing in the air with the other hand.

Zi Yang had to soothe him with his eyes: It's okay, can't the water flow go slowly......

Lao Wang pulled off the mask and opened his mouth to yell: "Water rats!" Water rats! ”

Zi Yang looked back and couldn't help but scatter, where is this wave, it is obviously a large group of water rats floating on the water, looking like waves from a distance.

What to do? Zi Yang looked at Su Rui in despair, it was impossible to swim back, they could barely stabilize themselves by holding on to the wall now, and as soon as they let go, they would immediately be washed into the rat pile by the current - what's more, the group of water rats seemed to be swimming towards them at an accelerated pace, and it seemed that they would be drowned by the water rat group army in a dozen seconds.

Su Rui glanced back at Zi Yang, and a fierce man stabbed down.

"That's it, Lao Tzu is going to die here today!" As soon as Zi Yang's hand was released, he drilled his head to the bottom of the water, and the turbulent undercurrent under the water carried him down rapidly, and Zi Yang only felt a large black thing floating above his head.

Strangely, the water rats didn't attack them, but frantically ran upstream, as if they were also hiding from something!
