Chapter 048: Earthfire Molten City (16)

Under the illumination of the flares, everyone found an iron lock bridge composed of black chains under the slope of the bluestone platform, and its bridge body was composed of 6 thick bowls, black matte iron chains, including 4 bottom chains and 2 handrails.

Due to its age, the wooden planks laid on the iron chains of the bridge have long been weathered, and only six dangling subway lock chains are left suspended above the endless abyss, and I don't know where they connect.

Lin Pengyi and the others looked at this chain bridge that seemed to lead to hell, couldn't help swallowing their saliva, and asked timidly: "Comrade Wei, are you sure that we must take this passage?" It also looks too dangerous......"

Wei Zede, who walked at the front of the team, explained: "Our rescue team has no way to retreat, but there is only one way forward. ”

When it comes to critical times, it still depends on the military!

I heard Lieutenant Du Xuyao say loudly: "Let's go up first to see if it's safe!" ”

As he spoke, he made a gesture, and the two sturdy soldiers immediately climbed up.

In the frightened eyes of everyone, the figures of the two soldiers gradually melted into the darkness......

After more than ten minutes, a reply came from the walkie-talkie, saying that the chain bridge is actually not very long, as long as you do a good job of safety protection, anyone can pass smoothly!

This news made everyone's hearts feel a little reassured.

So, one by one, the rest of the rescue team climbed up the blackened iron bridge. This time, Huang Bin, who has a fear of heights, is personally responsible for Captain Zheng Hongzhi.

Half an hour later, the group was slumped on a black stone platform at the other end of the chain bridge. In this short period of time, every rescue team member is under tremendous psychological pressure, after all, no one can face the bottomless abyss without changing their faces.

Wiping the sweat on his forehead, Wei Zede took a big sip of water.

"Mr. Wei, did you say that Captain Liu and they also came down like this?" Lin Pengyi, who was pale, asked in a low voice.

"That's how it should be!"

Weizel nodded and replied, "Unless there is some other 'secret passage' recorded in the parchment scroll that will allow them to travel safely......"

"It's a pity that we don't have this map in our hands! It's all about taking risks! ”

At this moment, from the bottomless abyss below the black stone platform where the rescue team was located, a sharp "woo" sound was heard again.

Wei Zede's face changed greatly, and he shouted urgently: "Quickly fix yourself!" Rise...... Wind ......"

Before he could finish speaking, the fierce wind that he had encountered on the bluestone plank road appeared in this underground space again.

However, on this smooth and flat black stone platform, where can there be any place to fix one's body?

Everyone could only lie on the ground and pray secretly.

When the wind reached his body, Wei Zede realized that the wind was not blowing outward from the abyss! Instead, it goes inward...... The wind is blowing in the opposite direction from what we have encountered before!

The wind turned into a huge suction, pulling everything into the abyss!

"Ahh

With a few screams, the rescue team suffered losses again!

Wei Zede, who was lying on his stomach and his face was close to the cold stone platform, could not observe, and could only judge by his voice.

"This voice is Lin Pengyi's ......"

But the tragedy did not stop, and there were several shouts one after another!

Zheng Hongzhi...... Huang Bin...... There should still be a few more soldiers......"

Just as Wei Zede was coldly calculating the loss of personnel, a man was blown by the wind at his side.

Without thinking too much, Wei Zede grabbed him with one hand! But this tremendous power also brought him off the ground!

"Xiao Ning...... Let go! ”

"This ...... Is this Professor Liu? ”

After hearing the sound, Wei Zede did not let go, but grabbed him even more desperately.

"You can't let go, if Professor Liu dies, the mission will fail...... If you want to die, die together! ”

An even more violent wind struck, and Wei Zede and Professor Liu pulled each other and fell from the black stone platform into the abyss......

"Everything...... Is it coming to an end? ”

In the process of falling, time seems to stop.

All kinds of memories come flooding in! Things that I thought had been forgotten for a long time flashed in Wei Zede's mind one after another......

"I'm going to die...... Is this what it feels like to die? Doesn't seem bad......"

Suddenly, the flow of time suddenly accelerated.

Before Wei Zede could react, he heard a "poof"! An icy, piercing sensation enveloped his entire body......

"Water? It's water! ”

The feeling of the rest of his life after the catastrophe simply drove Wei Zede crazy, and he pulled Professor Liu to fight upward! In a matter of seconds, the two of them rushed out of the water one after the other......

At this time, Professor Liu had fallen into a semi-comatose state.

Wei Zede hurriedly took out a glow stick for emergency lighting from his waterproof backpack, then looked at the simple compass on his wrist to determine the direction, and then he dragged Professor Liu to swim in the southwest direction.

"Ahem! Am I not dead yet? Who are you? ”

In the icy water, Professor Liu sobered up a little, and he asked, "What are we...... Where is this going? ”

"Old Liu, I'm Wei Xiaoning!"

Wei Zede said loudly, "Remember what I said at the 'Soul Ladder'? 'Lose first, then gain, Lord's benefit. Southwest Depeng, Northeast Funeral Friend, An, Zhen, Ji '...... Now we're swimming southwest! ”

"Oh......"

Responding in a low voice, Professor Liu Kai'an fainted again.

Beneath the abyss, there is no light.

I don't know how long I swam, but just when the lake was about to freeze Wei Zede and Professor Liu Kai'an, a piece of land with wrong shadows finally appeared in front of me.

"Saved!!"

Wei Zede was overjoyed when he saw this, and he used all his strength to drag Professor Liu to swim towards the shore.

"Hah!"

After going ashore, Weizede was blown by the cool breeze from the ground and sneezed loudly.

Seeing that Professor Liu was frozen and shrunk into a ball, Wei Zede searched around for something to make fire......

After a while, Wei Zede, who had not gained anything, had to take out a can of gasoline from his backpack and set it on fire with a fire sickle and flint.

While warming himself by the fire, Wei Zede took out a set of dry clothes from his waterproof backpack and gave it to Professor Liu to change into, while he himself was wearing wet clothes, shivering and baking the fire.

"Anyone? Who's there? Can you take a hand......"

"Who is it?" Wei Zede asked loudly.

“…… Wizards? That's great! I'm a Taoist priest......"

Without hesitation, Wei Zede, who had just recovered his strength, jumped into the icy water again and swam towards the place where the sound came from.

"Huh? Who is she? ”

When Wei Zede saw Li Daoyi, he found that he was still dragging a young woman.

"I don't know yet! But I guess she should be Liu Ru......"

When Wei Zede and Li Daoyi dragged this woman ashore, they were surprised to find that she was the object of our rescue, the captain of the archaeological expedition, Liu Ru.

It's just that Liu Ru has passed out at this time.

"Why is she here? What about the rest of the archaeological expedition? What happened to them? ”

A big question mark appeared in Wei Zede and Li Daoyi's hearts.
