Chapter 22: Quicksand Saves People

The second uncle pointed in a direction in the dark space, and then frowned, and I smiled bitterly: "Second uncle, confused? ”

The second uncle glared at me: "Well, this fall, I lost my direction, it's pitch black, how can I find ......"

I looked around and shouted Seventh Master and Liang Ruoyi twice in the headset, but there was no response, it seems that I have lost contact. I sighed softly, walked to the stone wall less than ten meters away from me, and reached out to touch it: it looked like it was made of sea sand, and it was a little damp and cold to the touch, and a little soft in some places.

"Second uncle!" I turned to my second uncle and said, "Aren't we going to the middle of the basin?" Just walk down here, and you might find some clues. ”

The second uncle came over to take a look, but he could only nod, and the uncle and nephew walked along the wall and walked towards the depths.

After walking for about a few minutes, it was still dark and there was nothing suspicious. By the time it was almost eleven o'clock, there was some water under our feet, and by the time we reacted, the water had reached the ankles.

"Rising tide......" The second uncle dragged me to a halt, groaned, and reached out to fasten the hook lock on the two of our waists again: "Be careful, there may be an exit ahead." ”

Outlet? I was a little puzzled, but I didn't ask much, as the second uncle continued to walk forward, and after a while, we unknowingly returned to the sea!

"Holy!" I didn't even come back to my senses: "Did we go from top to bottom before?" ”

The second uncle said while observing the surrounding environment: "That's right, it's just that in the deep sea, it's dark and directionless, you don't feel anything." We're back in the basin now. ”

"Huh? Coming back?! I looked around in amazement, and sure enough, I could faintly see the dark hill in the distance, where we had come in from the outside.

"Let's go, now I have a sense of direction." The second uncle recognized the direction and said to me.

I answered, followed the second uncle and slowly swam forward, and a few minutes later, the second uncle pointed not far away and smiled: "Look, that should be the corpse of a Taiwanese." ”

I was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly fixed my eyes, and sure enough, under the light of the searchlight, a man in black was lying on the ground, his body had been torn into several pieces, but the internal organs seemed to have been hollowed out, and he had been dead for a long time, and there was no thick blood in the sea.

"Second uncle......" I smiled bitterly: "What are you laughing at when you see the corpse of a Taiwanese?!" ”

"What are we here for?" The second uncle asked rhetorically.

"Looking for the Yin and Yang coffin!"

"What about the Taiwanese?"

"I'm also here to find the Yin Yang Coffin!"

"Now that we see their bodies, does it mean that we are almost in the right place?"

I shrugged: "That's a reason...... too"

Saying that, we swam past the body of the Taiwanese, and the second uncle observed his wound a little: "It was torn with a sharp weapon, if you guessed correctly, it should have been torn open by those drifters directly with their mouths." Is there news that people are often dead or missing in this area? ”

"I haven't heard of it." I shook my head and said, "However, this is a tourist attraction, and even if a few people go missing, it is estimated that no one will report it." ”

The second uncle nodded thoughtfully and didn't say anything more.

At twelve o'clock in the afternoon, the second uncle stopped and nodded at me: "It's almost time to arrive." ”

"Arrived?" I also stopped: "Got to the middle?" ”

"Well, just look around."

I looked up and could see the gentle slope, and where we were, the lowest elevation.

"What about Liang Ruoyi and the Seventh Master, will there be any danger......" I said as I moved the earphones in my ear: "I still can't contact ......"

"Don't worry about it for now, drink some water to replenish your strength." The second uncle said with a wry smile.

The straw for drinking water was inside the helmet, and I took a few sips and saw that the second uncle had already begun to observe the surrounding landscape and environment.

"Xiao Rui, look at the dirt here." The second uncle slowly stood on the bottom of the sea, stretched out his feet and rubbed the soil on the bottom of the sea, as before, he rubbed a lot of dust in an instant, and it could be seen that the bottom of the sea here was also very soft.

"Hey, what about those Taiwanese?" I suddenly remembered.

"I don't know, it's missing." The second uncle shook his head: "From the time we came in until now, we have only seen the corpse of a Taiwanese, either they have found a place, or they have all been killed." ”

"That corresponding to the sound worm couple, although they don't know how to dig gold and pour holes and feng shui, but their kung fu is not bad." I wondered, "Will it be so easy to be killed?" Besides, they still have weapons on them! ”

"Forget it, I don't want to think about them yet." The second uncle looked at the mud and sand under his feet: "Let's think about us now, where do we go?" ”

This is a problem, the Taiwanese don't understand feng shui and digging gold, and my second uncle and I don't understand either! Now we have arrived at the destination we calculated before, but when we look at it, there is nothing, and there is no seventh master at this time, how can it be good?!

"Second uncle, I suddenly remembered that more than a year ago, when we were in the Cliff Beach of Forgetfulness, we came and went in and out of that tomb with the ebb and flow of the tide, here, will it be the same?" I thought about it for a moment, and whispered a little bottomlessly.

"Then who knows......" The second uncle's participation in the action of digging gold and pouring holes does not seem to be as much as mine, and he has no confidence in what he said.

"If you want to wait for the tide to go down, won't you have to wait until three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and it's only twelve o'clock now!" I patted the oxygen cylinder behind me: "Can this oxygen cylinder last until that time......"

As soon as my words fell, there was a sound of "brushing" in my ears, because I was wearing a helmet, the sound was not clear, I looked at the second uncle vigilantly, and saw that the second uncle had loosened the hook lock on my waist at some point, and before I could speak, the second uncle's body shook and turned over in the seawater, and then threw out the hook lock in his hand!

With a muffled sound of "poof", the hook lock in the second uncle's hand hit the mud and sand on the bottom of the sea, and then lifted it hard, I heard a "Kala" sound, as if I had hooked something!

The second uncle was stunned, as if he didn't expect the weight of this thing, took a deep breath, and pulled it up suddenly, "whoosh", and suddenly the mud and sand flew, I subconsciously took two steps back, and waited for the mud and sand in the sea water to slowly disperse, and when I looked at it, I saw two humanoid outlines!

"Who, who?!"

"Help!" The second uncle was the first to recognize the person and called out in my ear.

I hurriedly swam over, and when I saw the second uncle slapping the two of them a few times, removing the mud and sand on their bodies, my eyes widened suddenly: "Liang Ruoyi!" Seventh Master?! ”

The two of them were now pale, but they didn't see any wounds on their bodies, and they looked like they had been dead for a long time......

The second uncle saw that I was in a hurry and was a little at a loss, and shouted: "Pull out the water bottles of the two of them, don't let them choke!" ”

"Oh, oh......" I nodded, hurriedly reached out and touched the water bottle behind their backs, and carefully pulled it out, the second uncle shook the heads of the two gently, and after a few seconds, I heard a few rapid dry coughs, and the two of them woke up like this!

"Hoo-hoo-" The headset in my ear also returned to normal, and it seemed that it was indeed due to the collision that their helmet had overflowed with water from the water bottle, which caused the headset to malfunction.

"Seventh master, beauty, are you okay?" I asked eagerly.

"Ahem-" The seventh master sat up slowly, coughed dryly twice, and waved his hand slightly: "Ahem-ahem-no, it's okay, it's a big disaster...... Ahem! ”

Liang Ruoyi's side was the first to slow down: "Thanks to our luck, if we rush to another place and can't meet the two of you, we will die here......"

Waiting for the two of them to come to their senses, my second uncle and I learned that when we were at the edge of the basin, the hook and lock between the four of us were broken by the water drifter, and the second uncle and I fell into the hole, and these two people tried their best to escape from the water drifter's hands, and hid in the mud and sand at the bottom of the sea while they were unprepared, which can be regarded as escaping.

But the sad thing is that when these two people were hiding in the mud and sand, they were dizzy because they had been tossed by the water drifter for a while, and because of the collision at this time, the water bottle in the helmet was cracked, and the two were in a state of semi-suffocation and semi-coma.

If it weren't for the quicksand on the bottom of the sea that washed it down the gentle slope and hit me and my second uncle, these two would have really fed the fish......

"Oh my God, it's really reborn after the catastrophe...... Seventh Master sighed: "By the way, what did you two find along the way?" ”

"Nothing but the two of you." The second uncle said with a wry smile.

"What about the Taiwanese?" The Seventh Master then asked.

I stretched out my hand and pointed in the direction where I and my second uncle had come: "Over there, I saw a torn and torn body of a Taiwanese who had been torn apart, and other than that, I didn't see anyone else." ”

"Well, either they had an accident, or they've already found it." The Seventh Master said and slowly swam to the side, observing the environment at the bottom of the sea.

"Seventh Master, are we going to wait for the tide to fall?" I asked tentatively.

"That's right." The seventh master turned his head to look at me: "According to the terrain here, and the quicksand on the gentle slope, if I guess correctly, whenever the tide rises or falls, there should be an entrance to this place. ”

I glanced at the time, it was already more than one o'clock in the afternoon, and there should be more than two hours before the next low tide.

Liang Ruoyi had been fiddling with the detection locator on the side, and suddenly said lightly: "Why do you feel that something is wrong with this place the more you look at it?!" ”
