Chapter 40: The Boiling Lake
As soon as he finished saying this, a column of water rose into the sky, and the shrimp on the water surface became more and more agitated, and in the distance, a large hole suddenly appeared in the shrimp group, and a large amount of water mixed with the shrimp school fell into the black hole, and the surrounding shrimp scattered in a hurry, as if they saw a monster.

The mist was filled, some of them floated over, and landed on the back of my hand, so hot that it was unbelievable, I quickly took a few steps back and shrunk my hand, the water temperature was even hotter than ordinary boiling water.
When I looked closely, I realized that there were two rows of fine teeth in the black hole, which turned out to be a mouth, and I don't know what the mouth is so big! It was about the size of an ordinary round table, and if the whole body came out, it must not be bigger than a few houses.
As soon as Leper Li saw it appear, he grinned, it seems, this is his own son, I thought maliciously, "Follow me" Leper Li said and ran to the shore closest to the stone forest, "Get ready, rush over as fast as possible in a while"
"Rush over? I froze for a moment, "Could it be that you want to use it as a bridge, you're crazy" I almost cried and yelled at him.
Seeing him nodded, I instantly had an urge to put him into the water and scald him, if you want to pit me, you don't have to pit me like this, you think there is cotton underneath, maybe it can bounce it up for you if it falls.
"It's okay, I've passed it a few times, and I've missed it once, it's very stable" Leper Li comforted me seriously, and without waiting for me to answer, he played the flute again, this time, the flute sound was obviously more passionate than last time.
The shrimp group heard the sound and moved, and continued to gather here, and soon, the water surface in front of us was like a 10,000-watt bulb, extremely dazzling, after the shrimp group gathered here, the other water surface suddenly became clean, only a little light swam there, I was observing the water surface, suddenly, a huge black shadow swam towards here, it should be the one just now.
It was much bigger than I had guessed, and looking at the shadows, it looked like a giant whale, and it was hard to believe that there was such a huge amount of life in such a small underground lake, and it seemed that this underground hot lake was not the size it seemed.
The surface of the water began to roll, one after another, rising higher and higher, the black shadow rose up, its mouth opened much wider than before, and its body suddenly thrust into the water between the circle and the opposite bank, its back was dark, and there were some stripes of flower color on it, and the part that exposed the water connected this place with the opposite side, obviously, there was more space under the water, and it was still moving slowly.
"Let's go, what are you observing" Leper Li grabbed my arm, pulled me and rushed forward, I came back to my senses, didn't dare to think about it, used my strength to eat, and stepped out of my legs.
Jumping into it, Leper Lee and I jumped to its back, the back of this thing was harder than I thought, and the reaction force shook my feet, and the mutated creature was different.
As if I felt someone jump on my back, its speed suddenly increased a little, I was unstable, and almost fell, but fortunately, the leper Li was quick and pulled me back.
"Hurry up, it's too late, or we'll really get acquainted" Leper Lee pulled me at a faster speed.
This place is the closest to the shore, only about 20 meters away, but now it seems that it is really a little far, and the things under our feet are constantly accelerating, and I and Leper Li are moving in a straight line, but the distance is clearly oblique, and the distance will be stretched by a few meters.
But Leper Lee is always Leper Lee, and in a little more than a second, he has already taken me half the distance.
Suddenly, the outcrops in front of me began to decrease, and it started to dive, ", run away after the" Leper Lee cursed, I was silent, trying not to spit out the breath I had just inhaled in my chest, I knew that once I exhaled this breath, I was finished, and I didn't want to drag Leper Lee's hind legs.
When there were still about five meters from the shore, there was no road ahead, and then the leper Li suddenly braked his body, pulled me forward, and then threw me hard, and my feet were empty, and he threw me out.
Before I could react, I had already hit the ground with a bang, the hard ground smashed me to a burning pain, and my arm hit a few small stones, and blood flowed. But I didn't care about this, so I immediately turned around and went to see the situation of Leper Lee.
I was so delayed that he was farther away from the shore, and I shouted at him desperately, "Jump over."
But Leper Li shook his head, my eyes were sour, thinking that Leper Li was about to be strong, but I didn't expect him to laugh, and then turned to the right, his legs bent slightly, kicked hard, and suddenly jumped to the right.
The next moment, a huge tail cocked up from the water, and the hot water droplets splashed wildly, and the leper Li took this opportunity to step on it, and with a little bit of strength, he jumped up again, and landed beside me in an extremely chic posture.
After standing still, we looked at each other, there was silence, and after a while, he and I both laughed, "The posture is so handsome" I said, after speaking, I silently began to clean up the wound, and the leper Li shouted: "Oops, burn me" Some parts of his body were already soaked.
As I cleaned the wound, I asked, "I didn't have time to ask you just now, what is that thing?" It's so big, why is it so much like a cetacean?"
"Humpback whale" leper Li took off his shirt and trembled.
"What, how could the whale appear here, it's still such hot water, and the mutation won't mutate so much!" I stopped my movements and stared at Leper Lee, a little unclear.
"Who said the water was hot?" Leper Lee said.
"Dog, you just said that if you fall into it, you will be cooked, and when you came over, the water droplets splashed on you didn't burn you and scream, the water droplets splashed on me made my hands red," I said, and I took out the back of my red hand as evidence.
"Oh, it's scaring to say that it will be cooked, so that you can run faster, and the water that splashes out is also very hot, and the temperature of the water in it is not high, about the same as usual," explained the leper Lee.
"What's going on?" I asked curiously.
Leper Li pointed to the water, and then pointed to the air, and said: "I call this underground lake the lake of boiling, representing the side of the extreme yang, the temperature under the water is no different from ordinary water, many creatures can survive in it, but as soon as the water comes into contact with the measured air, the temperature will rise sharply, this is the magic of this mountain and sea yin and yang array, otherwise, how do you think it traps the mutated creatures."
The shrimp are able to surface because of a protective shell on their body.
It's all evolved, migrating to the ground at high temperatures to avoid the predation of humpback whales, and humpback whales have evolved a layer of protection to avoid starvation."
I then came to understand that no matter whether the water was at room temperature or not, Leper Li and I would never be able to go into the water, because we always had to go ashore.
