Chapter 495: Out of reach
Gao Chao gritted his teeth and dragged the girl out of the water again from the bottom of the water, for fear that she would choke on the water in a coma, he held his breath and swam to the side of the water indiscriminately, although the speed was not fast, but he had left behind those things that had fallen from the height.
There was no doubt that the golden-armored warriors who fell from the height were one after another, some of their bodies still burning, and they jumped into the water, really chasing after the intruders who were superior to them.
Fortunately, those golden-armored warriors who fell from a height did not hit them, but after those warriors fell into the water, there was almost no movement, all of them sank directly to the bottom because their bodies were too heavy, as for how deep the water was, it was simply unimaginable, anyway, when the fat man and Xia Qing shone down with a flashlight, although the pool water was clear, it was bottomless.
The fat man and Xia Qing also struggled to swim to the side, afraid of being hit by those warriors, and then they used their flashlights to search the water, only to find the girl floating not far away.
Seeing that the water around him had flattened, Gao Chao re-exposed his head and grabbed the girl from behind, continuing to swim to the side.
The hole of the circular platform above is not big, but the area of the pool below is not small, and several of them groped their way to the side in the dark, and they swam more than 20 meters before they saw a stone wall in front of them.
After all, they were still in the tower, and the higher they went up the black tower, the more spacious the area became, and when they finally swam to the stone wall, they were almost exhausted.
Xia Qing's big bag has been lost, and now only the fat man and the superb backpack are still there, and they are all on the fat man alone. Fortunately, there is a fat man. Otherwise, the superb backpack would have been thrown away long ago. Because he still had to carry the girl on his back, the fat man took the initiative to bear the weight of two large bags.
In this way, the fat man must be more tired swimming in the water, and he couldn't help grinning: "I said comrades, although we escaped those mummies, but what should we do now, it seems that this place is full of water, and there is no way to swim like this." I just can't hold it anymore. ”
Gao Chao hurriedly held the girl with one hand, grabbed a backpack on the fat man's body with the other, helped him bear some of the weight, and gasped: "Since this place is an exit, it is impossible not to have an upward road, otherwise, let's swim along the stone wall all the way to the side, I think we will definitely find the exit." ”
Although he has no bottom in his heart, he has a great confidence when he speaks, which is a unique temperament in Gao Chao. Only this temperament can make them face a desperate situation every time. There is still a chance to survive.
A few of them turned on their flashlights and swam along the stone wall to one side, the water here was too cold, they didn't feel it at first, but after swimming for a while, although their bodies were still moving, their hands and feet were numb from the cold, and even in the end, they were unconscious.
It's just that Gao Chao is not worried about himself, but the girl he has been holding in his arms, he found that her body is not as hot as before, her body temperature is close to normal, and then look at her face, it seems to be a little ruddy, which makes her look more beautiful than before.
Gao Chao felt that maybe it was the cold pool water that helped the girl lower her body temperature, and maybe it also played a beneficial role for her, but if she couldn't find the exit in the future, then her situation might get worse, after all, she was the only one who was not active and was still in a coma.
I don't know how long it took, but finally the fat man's eyes played a decisive role again.
The fat man, who had already wilted like a frosted eggplant, suddenly shouted excitedly, and he directly stretched out his hand and pointed at the oblique top and said, "Look, my grass, there seems to be a hole over there!" ”
The three of them all looked up to see, and sure enough, in the darkness, there was indeed a hole at the top of the stone wall, and about two meters below the cave entrance, there was a section of stone steps, but the stone steps and the hole were too high, and they were now swimming in the water, and they were probably more than four meters high from the top.
The fat man then only shook his head and sighed, and scolded: "Which grandson designed this outlet, isn't this taking us as mutton rolls, such a high step, can we reach it?" I'm going to die here. ”
Gao Chao ignored the fat man, not discouraged, he quickly approached the stone wall below the stone steps, stretched out a hand to check the situation on the stone wall, if there are some places on the stone wall that can be climbed, more than four meters high is actually considered high for them.
But what made him very helpless was that this stone wall was not only very steep, but also covered with green moss, which was as smooth as ice, and even the best rock climbers estimated that there was no way to take these four meters.
For a while, the three of them really couldn't think of any good ideas, and the fat man kept scolding in his mouth, hanging the designer here out again, and scolding them again with the eighteenth generation of their ancestors, but they couldn't relieve their anger.
Originally, Xia Qing didn't talk much along the way, and finally was scolded by the fat man so upset that he suddenly shouted to the fat man: "Don't scold, okay, this has nothing to do with the designer, it's all because of the water level, according to the previous design, the water level here must be about four meters higher than now, so as long as someone falls from the platform, they will never be choked by the water, and then as long as they swim to this position, they can climb directly to the exit." It's just that it's been more than 5,000 years now, and the water level has only dropped by four meters, which is already rare, just imagine if this place is empty, and there is no water, then all of us would have fallen to death long ago, do you understand? ”
Xia Qing's voice was very loud, obviously angry, it was the first time she shouted like this, and she couldn't help but scare both the fat man and Gao Chao.
The fat man looked at Gao Chao even more, then lowered his head and muttered, "I don't scold, I can't be so angry." ”
Xia Qing turned her head angrily and stopped looking at anyone, her behavior like this was really a bit strange.
Seeing her like this, although Gao Chao didn't understand what was wrong with her, he just thought that she was tired and irritable, and just wanted to say a few words to comfort her, but it was the girl in his arms, and suddenly her body trembled, and then she seemed to wake up.
Gao Chao hurriedly whispered in her ear, "Are you okay?" How do you feel? ”
When the fat man saw that the girl was awake, he swam over to look at the girl, but Xia Qing still swam on the water with his face behind his back as if he hadn't heard the superb voice at all. (To be continued.) )
