As soon as I said this, Yang Xue couldn't help but feel sad, her mouth was flattened, and she couldn't help but sobbed quietly, and she didn't know if it was because of her dying fate, or because my words before I died moved her. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

We have made up our minds to die, seeing that the black smoke is about to rush in front of us and engulf us, judging from what we have seen and heard before, the toxicity of this black smoke is very intense, as long as we come into contact with it, we may die in a very short time, and we should not experience too much pain.

But at this time, I came back to my senses from the shadow of death, and suddenly found that the cave-dwelling girl had run to the bottom platform for some reason, with her back to us, and what she was doing with her head down, looking very strange.

I couldn't help but be curious, I just cared about saying goodbye to Yang Xue before she died, and I didn't pay attention to this girl at all, and when I saw her squatting there with her back to us, I walked over, but I was surprised to find that she didn't know when, picked up a stone, and was hitting the platform hard under the water, making a dull sound.

Yang Xue and I both felt very strange, what was this girl doing, she was about to be swallowed by black smoke, what was the point of her doing such an abnormal behavior?

But just when we were surprised and inexplicable, we suddenly saw the waves of the underground dark river, and in the blink of an eye, several huge white monsters floated from under the water. Does this girl ...... But what's the use of summoning them? Could it be that these monsters can restrain the black smoke that consumes everything?

To surprise us, the girl suddenly jumped into the water, jumped her body, and rode on the back of a giant giant salamander, at this time, she turned her head sharply, beckoned to me and Yang Xue, and motioned to follow her movements.

As soon as I saw that there was still life, I didn't dare to take the time to think about what was going on, so I grabbed Yang Xue and jumped onto the back of the white giant salamander, this monster was very slippery, so I had to stretch out my hand as much as possible and hug its body tightly. When the girl saw that we were riding on the monster, she whistled very harshly, and the salamander shook its body as if it had received an order, and plunged into the water.

I didn't expect it, and before I could take a deep breath, I was swept through the water by the giant salamander at the speed of an arrow from a string, and in the blink of an eye, I had already drilled into the cave of the underground river.

The black smoke could devour all living things, but it didn't seem to have the ability to penetrate the water, and we got lucky enough to get rid of it, riding this monster, not knowing where to go.

Unfortunately, we didn't have an oxygen cylinder, and soon after we entered the water, the intense feeling of suffocation hit us, the pressure in our lungs increased, and the oxygen ran out quickly. I tried my best to hold my breath, but my ability to hold my breath underwater was very limited, and I had no professional training, but in a few tens of seconds, I couldn't bear it.

I opened my mouth involuntarily, and a stream of cold river water immediately poured into my lungs, and my brain was violently dizzy from the lack of oxygen. I realized that although we had escaped the smoky water, it was too far from the lake outside to rise to the surface of the water, and with a breath of time, we could not escape.

Just a second before I was about to faint, the giant salamander suddenly rose violently, and in the blink of an eye, brought us into an air cell, and I felt like a fish back in the water, and as soon as my head came out of the water, I gasped for breath, and the violent dizziness continued for several minutes before it eased down a little.

This air chamber is very narrow, with an area of about ten square meters, and there is a platform of a few square meters at the edge, we support each other to climb up to the platform, and lie there for more than ten minutes, before gradually recovering.

When I came to my senses, I heard the girl crying, and the cry was very strange, as if she was singing, and it sounded very sad. I barely got up from the ground, and I watched the girl curl up in a ball, hugging her knees, leaning against the cave wall, burying her face in her hands, and sobbing incessantly.

Yang Xue saw that the wound on the girl's neck was still bleeding, so she took out the first-aid kit from the backpack she was carrying, wiped the wound with disinfectant solution, and pasted a layer of gauze and waterproof tape. She patted the girl on the back and said to me:

"The reason why she cried may be because of the cavemen who committed mass suicide ......"

Recall that although we broke into the underground basin by mistake, because we recklessly blew up the Crystal Palace, causing chaos to them, perhaps they felt that the palace on which they relied for safety was destroyed, and their fate was also destroyed, so they chose to commit suicide.

Thinking of this, a little self-blame came to my heart, this girl should be kind by nature, otherwise, she could have left us just now and escaped alone, why did she save us? However, now we are trapped in this air chamber, and we don't know how far away we are from the outside world, whether we can reach it with a breath, the air chamber is narrow, according to the calculation that each cubic meter of air can be used for 20 minutes for people to breathe, we may not be able to last 10 hours in this air chamber, and when the oxygen is exhausted, we are also a dead end.

The only hope can only be pinned on Captain Li and them, but according to my estimates, their chances of escaping with a tank of oxygen are very slim, not to mention, even if they get away with it, it will be too late to delay it any longer, and at most they can bring our corpses back.

I said to Yang Xue:

"I don't know if she can speak, you try to communicate with her and ask her if there are any other ways to escape from here."

Yang Xue nodded and whispered a few words to the girl, but the girl seemed to ignore our words, and looked at Yang Xue with a confused expression, the latter gave her a few more gestures, she understood a little, she shook her head slightly, buried her face again, and cried to herself.

Yang Xue shook her head at me and whispered:

"Don't be embarrassed for her, because the death of the clan has caused indelible damage to her young heart, even if she gets out alive, where can she go alone? Can the outside world, for a girl like her, who was born and raised in a cave, really be able to adapt? Who can give her the pampering and care of her family? Give it to the state? I'm afraid that in the end, it will become an experiment for scientists......"

I frowned and said:

"It's just that before I die, I want to figure out some of the questions trapped in my mind, about the origin of that black smoke, I really don't understand, if they created it, do they want to die with us? Why do they have to take such an extreme approach, if they can communicate with us, many problems will be solved? ”

Yang Xue replied:

"Maybe our presence has inadvertently upset some kind of balance so that they have to do that......"
