Chapter 33: Underground Rivers

PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!

After making up his mind, Liu Xiaoge felt much more relaxed, took out the liquor on his waist and poured it violently, feeling the spicy wine in his throat, there was an indescribable comfort. Li Xinwen and the little monkey were surprised by Liu Xiaoge's sudden move, and both of them stared at Liu Xiaoge, not knowing what kind of medicine Liu Xiaoge Hululan bought.

Liu Xiaoge put the wine bottle on the ground and said loudly: "I'm not leaving, don't the old-timers say so." If you touch the gold, you will live, and if you divide it, you will die. Although the little monkey is the captain of the touching gold, I am the mountain movers, and Li Xuemei is the general of the Faqiu Zhonglang, strictly speaking, it cannot be regarded as the same door.

But it doesn't matter, the four doors of officials and thieves have been inherited for thousands of years, and they have long had an inexplicable relationship with each other. Next, whether it is the Longtan Tiger's Den, or the Sword Mountain and the Sea of Fire, I, Liu Xiaoge, will never retreat, and I will break through the tomb of the King of Minyue. Speaking of which, Liu Xiaoge felt that the blood in his chest was burning.

The little monkey suddenly burst out laughing, and even Li Xinwen burst out laughing. Three bottles of two pots, three young people, on the edge of the dark thief hole, raised a glass and drank together. Before choosing to cooperate with each other, there may have been a little helplessness and inexplicable Xiao Jiujiu, but this sip of wine has officially formed a team.

In order to show his determination, Liu Xiaoge changed the appearance of coercion in the past and took the initiative to ask to take the lead. With a low head, he drilled down, and climbed several hundred meters along the thief hole, and the direction of the whole thief hole became more and more wrong, and it was straight down at first. After going down for more than ten meters or so, he began to dig in a straight line towards the south.

Looking at this endless thief hole, Liu Xiaoge began to be a little impatient and said: "Where do I go by this thief hole, if I go out again, it is estimated that I will dig to the center of the earth." Liu Xiaoge didn't finish speaking, and suddenly the thief hole in front of him made a sharp turn again, Liu Xiaoge was distracted, and he didn't pay attention, and his feet slipped and slid down.

After Liu Xiaoge slid down three or five meters, he came back to his senses, and tried to grab the edge of the thief hole to stop himself. However, the soil in this section is completely different from the soil quality of the previous robbery hole, it is very wet and slippery, and moss-like plants have grown in many places, and there is no point of borrowing at all, Liu Xiaoge naturally has no way to stop, so he can only slide to the end like a slide.

Then his feet were empty, and the whole person was thrown out of the thief's hole, and fell towards the pitch-black front. Liu Xiaoge is in the mood to vomit blood, how can he fall from the grave. Fortunately, after falling a lot, he also gained experience, and just after Liu Xiaoge was ready, his body was cold, and then the sound of a heavy object falling into the water sounded.

Liu Xiaoge knew that he had fallen into the water this time, Liu Xiaoge's water quality was not very good, and he suddenly became nervous when he fell into the water. Fortunately, it didn't take long for two pillars of light to sweep towards him. The current was quite turbulent, although it didn't take long for Li Xinwen and the little monkey to come out of the thief hole, but at this time, Liu Xiaoge had already been carried down by the current for five or six meters.

Under the urgency of the situation, Li Xinwen didn't care to observe the surrounding situation, and chased along the river, Liu Xiaoge kept struggling in the water. Originally, Liu Xiaoge's water quality was not so bad, but at this moment, Liu Xiaoge was still carrying heavy tomb robbery equipment, and the water was turbulent, and it was already very good that he could stabilize his body and not sink to the bottom.

The little monkey roared as he ran: "Little brother, don't be afraid, this should be an underground river, it doesn't seem to be within the scope of the underground palace, there should be no danger." Li Xinwen was not so optimistic, because she faintly heard a series of strange noises in the sound of rushing water.

The murmur is so rhythmic that it doesn't sound like a normal underground river. As Liu Xiaoge was washed out for dozens of meters, the entire river suddenly turned. The huge undercurrent whirlpool formed dragged Liu Xiaoge into the underground river, and Liu Xiaoge was caught off guard, and sank to the bottom after drinking a few sips of water.

Fortunately, the underground river is not deep, Liu Xiaoge sank down about two meters and his feet touched the bottom of the river, and the steps of the river were densely covered with a large number of smooth pebbles, which were very smooth, and Liu Xiaoge couldn't find a foothold at all. can only continue to be powerlessly swept by the river.

The little monkey on the shore saw that Liu Xiaoge was sinking to the bottom, and shouted nervously: "Little brother, hold on, we will come to save you soon." Li Xinwen made a silent gesture to the little monkey, listened carefully for a moment and said, "It's not good, there seems to be a lot of water flowing ahead, there may be a waterfall." ”

This kind of underground river waterfall is not the same as a mountain waterfall, but it is as dangerous as the waterfall, and if you are washed down the waterfall, you may be knocked out by the huge current. Hearing that there was a waterfall, the little monkey was even more nervous and said, "Big sister, you have to think of a way, if you go on like this, the little brother will die." ”

Li Xinwen took a flashlight and shone it in front of this underground river, and her eyes suddenly cooled and said: "There is a stone over there, if you can run over there, fix it with a rope, and then let Liu Xiaoge grab the rope." Before she finished her words, the little monkey directly unloaded the equipment on her body, grabbed the climbing rope, looked at a large stalactite pillar hanging down from the cave in front of her, and rushed over without saying a word.

Liu Xiaoge was still sinking under the river at the moment, loyal to being stepped on by him this time to a place that was not too slippery, and immediately stepped on the bottom of the water with both legs, and the whole person finally poked his head out of the water. As he put his head out of the water again and looked ahead, his legs went limp. Because less than ten meters in front of him, a waterfall suddenly appeared, and Liu Xiaoge is not only the first time in the movie to see the protagonist after jumping off the waterfall bravely.

But the waterfall in reality is not as safe as in the movie novel, if you fall down and jump off a building, you will either die or be injured. Suddenly nervous, desperately struggling, wanting to delay a little longer, to give the little monkey more time to buy them more rescue time. At the moment of life and death, people can still burst out of their potential, Liu Xiaoge's lame dog planing style actually successfully withstood the erosion of the current.

Seeing Liu Xiaoge desperately in the water, the little monkey's heart tightened, and his feet became faster, he ran in three steps and two steps, turned over and jumped, grabbed the stone pillar with both hands, and deftly took out the metal buckle to fix the rope, and at the same time tied the rope around his waist. The whole process is smooth, but even so, Liu Xiaoge still can't stand it, but the water carries the power of nature, which can be resisted by simple manpower.

I could only watch myself being led to the edge of the waterfall step by step by the water, and when Liu Xiaoge was less than two meters away from the edge of the waterfall, Liu Xiaoge was no longer able to resist the flowing water, and his body leaned back and fell towards the waterfall. At the same time, the little monkey kicked the stone pillar with both legs, and the whole person rushed towards Liu Xiaoge, and it almost took only a second for the little monkey to rush to Liu Xiaoge's side, stretching out his hand and shouting: "Little brother grabbed my hand!" ”

Liu Xiaoge was greatly moved when he saw the little monkey rushing towards him so desperately, and at the same time stretched out his hand. Holding his two hands tightly, Liu Xiaoge felt his body stunned, and the whole person was hung in the air. The little monkey is much more uncomfortable, the rope around his waist is temporarily tied by him, there is no science at all, and now he is pulled by Liu Xiaoge like this, the mountaineering rope is almost buckled into the flesh, and he grins in pain.

Li Xinwen was also a little shocked when she saw the friendship between the two of them who were so desperate and selfless. But now she knew that they couldn't last long in such a posture, and at the same time threw out a rope to tie Liu Xiaoge's legs, and it took a lot of effort to pull the two back to the river bank again.

Stepping on the river bank again, Liu Xiaoge almost collapsed, twisting his head and coughing up water. When I turned my head to look at the end of the waterfall, I heard that in addition to the huge roar of the waterfall, there was another sound, which was not too unfamiliar, as long as you could hear the sound of heavy wheels running in a workshop with large machinery.

Following the sound, he raised his flashlight and looked at a huge black figure like a roulette wheel, a huge bronze water windmill, which, although it had been a thousand years, showed that it had been seriously decayed. But it was still operating tenaciously, and Liu Xiaoge was stunned when he saw this scene, and he was almost choked to death by the water he spit out.

At the same time, Li Xinwen and the little monkey also saw the same amazing picture, Li Xinwen grabbed the cold fireworks on her body, lit them, and threw them towards the top of the bronze water windmill. Under the orange light of the cold fireworks, a huge bronze water windmill with a diameter of more than thirty meters appeared in front of them.

The water windmill rotated tenaciously, making a bronze grinding sound, and there were many grooves on the surface, which may have been carved when the water windmill was built before, but it was seriously corroded at the moment and could not be identified at all. Behind the water windmill, rows of bronze chains and bronze gears of different sizes were rotating.

Liu Xiaoge was surprised: "Damn, is this the power core of all the organs in the entire Minyue King Tomb." I'll just say, these mechanisms can still operate after thousands of years, and it really uses the power of flowing water, which is the principle of perpetual motion machines. Li Xinwen pointed to a dark shadow in the distance and said: "This thing is definitely not so simple, such a complex mechanical engineering operation, it is too overkill to drive the mechanism in a small underground palace, and the function of this device is definitely not so simple." ”

The little monkey's eyes were sharp, and he also saw the black shadow that Li Xinwen was referring to, and said, "Don't care what the effect is, let's find a way to go down and find out later." It turned out that at this moment they were trapped on the edge of the river above the waterfall, Liu Xiaoge came back to his senses and began to probe at the end of the riverbank.

The end of the river is not very large, and soon it is found that there are some wooden staircase shelves at the end that extend vertically downward, and when you look down along the shelf, you will find that there is no foothold below at all, and it is all water. The original wooden staircase has long been corroded and crumbling, and this staircase has long since become a hanging ladder, which can only be seen but not walked.

There is really no way out now, Li Xinwen pondered for a moment, pointed to a huge bronze chain not far from them, and said, "Since there is no way down there, we can only consider crawling along the bronze chain." ”

Liu Xiaoge saw that the bronze chain's face was green, although the distance was not far, but the bronze chain was deeply embedded in the cliff, and with this stoutness, he really didn't worry that it couldn't bear the weight of the three people. But crawling five or six meters on the cliff is not a joke, at least for Liu Xiaoge, who has no experience in mountaineering and rock climbing, it is almost a thing that can be imagined but cannot be done.
