There was silence around us in the darkness, and this muffled sound made us all stunned, but when we looked down, we saw a huge splash on the surface of the lake a foot away, and then a black thing was thrown out, and fell back into the water with a "pop", like a stone.

"Ahh

Then there was a loud scream, and a man emerged from the splash, but it was a toad that had disappeared for a long time!

"Aha...... Yes! ”

The toad screamed one after another, and we swam forward, and saw that the toad's clothes were all covered with blood at this time, and there were lines everywhere, which should have been whipped by the thorns of those white-dressed female corpses.

"Huh?! Who?! When the toad saw a figure coming, he shouted, and his body retreated, and when he saw that it was us, he breathed a sigh of relief: "You guys! Damn, I almost died outside! ”

"Toad, where did you come from?" The Seventh Master frowned, looked at the man with a red and swollen face and asked.

"Below!" When the toad spoke below, there was a look of horror on his face, which he had never seen before: "It's down there!" I had been riding this dragon boat and I had fallen into a cliff with stone walls on all sides, and there was no way to climb up, so I went underwater, and I was lucky enough to find an underground undercurrent! But that way, that way, there were all mutated toothfish, and there were several female corpses! ”

Looking at the toad's expression like this, this undercurrent trip should have an endless aftertaste.

"Retribution." I said softly.

The toad glared at me with fierce eyes, and the old clam hurriedly stepped forward to grab him: "Okay, you take care of the wound first, and we are ready to go up." ”

The toad responded, swam with us to the bottom of the waterfall, and was stunned when he saw the waterfall going upstream: "This? Countercurrent?! ”

The pain of the wound made the toad give up his curiosity for a while and sit on a reef to deal with his wound. I squinted my eyes and saw the wounds on the toad's body, and the pores all over my body instantly opened.

At this moment, there are countless wounds on the toad's body, large and small, and there are long strips, which should be left by the stabbing whip of the white-dressed female corpse; There are round pits, which should be left by those mutated teeth! Looking at it, almost the entire upper body of the toad was covered with blood, and the toad also looked pale and his lips trembled slightly after the strong desire to survive receded, looking extremely weak.

No wonder, no wonder it has always been unstoppable, even in front of the corpse turtle king, there was only a trace of astonishment of the toad, just now when he told about the situation of escaping from the undercurrent, his face was full of horror, and his heart palpitated. If that undercurrent is longer, the toad will never survive......

"Ahh

While taking off his shirt, the toad looked at the wounds on his body, large and small, and screamed, took out a bottle of hemostatic and anti-inflammatory potion from the emergency first aid kit, and sprinkled it on his body like crazy, and then he gritted his teeth, panted and quickly wrapped the bandage around his body, and soon became a mummy......

All of us were fascinated by his movements, and the Budai monk was twisting the beads on the side, not knowing what scriptures he was chanting silently. I was stunned by the toad's performance, before he was afraid of death and threw me down as bait, and now, facing his scarred and painful body, he just screamed, and then gritted his teeth and wrapped himself up.

Not to mention anything else, just the anti-inflammatory and hemostatic potion, even if it was sprinkled on a small wound of mine, I felt a pain in my heart, and he actually ......

"Whew...... Whew......" The bandaged toad panted and looked at us: "Hey! Hey...... It's okay, hurry up and get up, I'm going to get out of here, leave! ”

It is estimated that there are several great shadows in the toad's heart now, at least in this place, he will feel insecure.

"I'll try it first!" The old clam made a ten-meter-long hook lock, stood with his feet one after the other, and threw the hook lock upwards violently.

A few seconds later, there was a "snap" and the hook lock was smoothly placed on it. The old clam was overjoyed, and pulled hard: "It's about the same, if you look at the height, it should be about six meters!" Tie the ropes, y'all! ”

It's not high, but because of the current, it's better to be cautious.

We each tied one rope around our waist, and the other end to the rope on the old clam's waist, and the rope on the old clam was the hook lock on it.

With the preparation done, we began to climb up with our bare hands.

Unexpectedly, the process went smoothly, and after about ten minutes, we all stood on it and let out a sigh of relief.

"Huh? How is there nothing?! Liang Ruoyi looked around, and found that it was dark everywhere, and there was nothing, so he hurriedly took out a flashlight, pressed it, and it turned on.

Looking through the light, we saw a pool the size of half a football field, and it didn't look deep, and where we were standing, the water was just below our ankles.

Except for a few inconspicuous stones, there was nothing everywhere.

It's just that there are stone walls on three sides, which means that if there are no accidents, we have come to the end and there is no road ahead.

If Wu Jiangxian's tomb is not here, either our news is wrong, or we missed it before.

The Seventh Master stood aside with a frown, observing the surrounding environment, and there were words in his mouth, as if he was calculating something.

"Boom—"

There was a loud bang, and the ground under our feet shook violently, and I stumbled and fell directly to the ground, almost falling. And the other people were also unsteady and staggering, as if this place was about to collapse for a while!

"Don't worry, it'll be fine!" The Seventh Master shouted, half-squatting, his arms propped up on the ground.

It took about two minutes for the shaking to stop.

I sat on the ground and let out a sigh, and before I could speak, I heard the old clam shouting, "Look! Over here! ”

Everyone hurriedly followed the flashlight in the old clam's hand and found that in the center of the pool, a huge dragon boat about five zhang long and two zhang high appeared! This dragon boat is black, the whole hull is a soaring dragon shape, four feet for the oar, the dragon tail for the stern, the dragon head for the bow, the eyes are round, the face is solemn, it looks majestic, full of style!

It seems that this is based on the dragon boat of Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, and it is very likely that it is the tomb of Wu Jiangxian.

"I see, that's ......" Qi Ye, who had not spoken, said with a smile: "The Goguryeo people spent all their manpower and material resources to build such a scale of underground fortifications, but they made a wedding dress for Emperor Yang Guang of Sui. ”

Everyone looked at each other and didn't understand for a while.

"There is one biggest mechanism in the entire underground fortification, which is the sinking road we took when we came." The Seventh Master explained: "If the city of Jilin is broken, the Goguryeo soldiers will hide in the underground fortifications to counterattack; But what if the enemy invades the underground fortifications in large numbers and can't parry them at all? There is only one way, and that is to sink all the land into the underground lake, and all of them will be destroyed! ”

"Leverage?" The old clam asked with a grin.

"That's right!" The smile on the seventh master's face was like a flower: "It's leverage." After Yang Guang knew the structure of the entire underground fortifications, he had an idea, which could not only hide from the Goguryeo people, but also build a tomb that he was satisfied with, that is, he skillfully used the mechanism built by the Goguryeo people in the underground fortifications, if the land sank, it would definitely squeeze out a large amount of lake water, as long as the lever and the change of water pressure were used, the dragon boat tomb could be exposed to the water after the land completely sank into the lake. ”

"However, why did Yang Guang let Wu Jiangxian's tomb appear on the surface?" I asked.

"Naturally, so that future generations can find it." The seventh master guessed: "I think he should have left a message for future generations, that is, after Yang Guang's death, his henchman, the Goguryeo township official, went to Daling Mountain to find Wu Jiangxian and Yang Guang's daughter, and informed her of this information." Of course, not for her to dig the grave, but for her to know where her mother is buried. It's just that it may be as you said, at that time, Wu Jiangxian's daughter had already become a girl in the Falling Flower Cave, and she looked at everything in the world as lightly as clear water, and she wouldn't care about these things......"
