Chapter 13 Separate Actions
Liu Xingye plunged into the water and swam to the central position, shouting loudly: "Wang Yuan, can you hear me? β
"Yes, I can hear you." Wang Yuan and others responded that although there was the sound of flowing water, Wang Yuan and others could still hear Liu Xingye's shouting in the water.
"Listen, those four piles of stones outside must have been moved or collapsed, and there's a good chance that the entrance we came in won't open again. Now you can calm down and think about it, when we come in and go down, is there a hole in the top of the stone staircase? You guys figure it out to get in. Liu Xingye shouted.
"What do we do when we get in?" Wang Yuan shouted.
"I don't know where the hole leads, no matter how you go when you go in, you must make some marks at the fork in the road, and we also have a hole below us that doesn't know where the passage is, if we go out, we will find a way to come in and come to you according to your mark." Liu Xingye was a little out of breath in the water.
"Uncle Liu, we might as well wait for you in the same place, that cave doesn't know where it leads, and it would be tantamount to asking for trouble if we went in." Qi Zhuang from above shouted below.
"If the people below us can't get out, aren't you waiting for death? Listen, if you cannot go out after you have entered, then you will have to find a city, and only by finding that city can you find a way out. Liu Xingye shouted.
βchengοΌ What is it? Wang Yuan asked.
"It's an ancient city, I won't explain the rest to you, if you find that city, its main entrance is facing the exit, that place is very dangerous, you must be careful." Liu Xingye shouted. "By the way, save some food for you, and don't forget to make a mark." Liu Xingye added.
"Okay, Uncle Liu, you also make some marks, we will definitely go out!" Wang Yuan shouted.
"Children, I'm sorry for you for this kind of thing, you must come on! Go for it. After Liu Xingye finished speaking, he swam to the cave. Wang Yuan and the others also began to walk towards the location of the cave they saw when they came and went.
Just when Liu Shiye began to swim to the location where Li Fangzheng and Zhou An were, Li Fangzheng looked at the blue light of the lake, and suddenly he noticed that there was an extra blue light behind Liu Shiye relative to the surrounding water, the light was a kind of flashing light, and gradually the light became brighter and brighter, and Zhou An on the side also noticed it.
"Liu Shiye, pay attention to the !! behind you" Li Fangzheng shouted,
"Well, what's wrong?" Liu Xingye looked back and found that there was nothing.
"Below!"
"Oh my god, what kind of bird thing is this!!" Liu Xingye looked down and suddenly found that there was a snake-like creature more than one meter long and fluorescent swimming towards him below him, and seeing that the light was only three or four meters away from him, he hurriedly swam towards the entrance of the cave with all his strength.
"Hurry up!!" Li Fangzheng shouted.
Liu Xingye swam to the shore like crazy, and the thing was almost about to catch Liu Xingye at one point, but it seemed to be frightened by Liu Xingye's dog planing like he was struggling in the water, and swam towards the deep water. Liu Xingye lay on the stone ladder breathlessly, and said, "It's ...... It bit me......"
Li Fangzheng and Zhou An were stunned by the scene just now, and Li Fangzheng said to Zhou An: "Do you see what it is?" β
Zhou An nodded, then shook his head and said, "I don't know if I'm wrong, it seems to be a snake with legs...... No, more like a dragon. β
"It doesn't seem that I read it wrong......" Li Fangzheng said with wide eyes and staring at the water tightly.
Liu Xingye saw that these two people were still looking into the water, and he didn't hear what he just said, so he lay on the ground and wailed: "I was bitten by a snake......"
At this time, Li Fangzheng and Zhou An reacted and hurriedly went to see Liu Xingye lying on the ground.
"Mr. Liu, where did you bite?" Zhou An asked.
"Little ...... On the calf, I just kicked it, and it bit me, and something so bright is probably poisonous. After Liu Xingye finished speaking, he covered his calf with his hand.
"I'll take a look." Zhou An took Liu Shiye's hand away, pulled Liu Shiye's trouser leg, and when he saw his wound, he said to Li Fangzheng in a puzzled tone: "It's a scratch...... It's not a bite......" Liu Xingye also saw that the wound was actually four marks, and it was a scratch. This made the three of them wonder even more, looking at what it was like a snake in shape, but it had claws, and it glowed.
Li Fangzheng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Fortunately, at least the injury is not a big deal." β
"That's good, it scares the hell out of me, what the hell is that thing?" Liu Xingye rubbed the wound and stood up, as if the wound was only a slight scratch.
"From afar, it looks like a dragon......," Mr. Li said.
"If there is a bird flying here, you still say that the phoenix, what kind of knowledge do you have as a mountain villager, let me ask Professor Zhou." Liu Xingye said to Li Fangzheng, his words were mainly a complaint about himself lying on the ground for a long time and no one cared about it.
After hearing this, Zhou An immediately felt embarrassed, and said hesitantly: "Actually, judging from the shape, I also feel like a dragon ...... in mythology" and then said: "But we didn't see it clearly, maybe it's a lizard we haven't seen." β
"Forget it, don't talk nonsense, let's find the exit first, stay away from the water, it's quite evil here." Liu Industrial said.
"Wait a minute, Mr. Liu, what is the ancient city you just said?" Zhou An stopped Liu Shiye and asked.
"This ...... I've heard Wang Chengqiu talk about it......" Liu Xingye paused and replied.
"Nonsense, I think you've been here before, right, the path you took is the exit you're directing them to find now." Li Fangzheng said.
"Shall we go out and talk about it? What we are now concerned about is not only our old lives, but also the four children above, and Yingzi is still on it. Liu Xingye said. Also, Zhou An, what you want to know if we can find the exit smoothly, you can see it. β
Li Fangzheng was originally a little annoyed when he was trapped here, and wanted to catch Liu Xingye and ask what was going on, but after thinking about it carefully, Xiaoying and Wang Yuan were also trapped here, maybe Liu Xingzheng was right, no matter what he had done before, at least he wouldn't harm those four children, now finding the exit as soon as possible is the most important thing, and it's not too late to go out and ask about some things.
"If Yingzi Wang Yuan and they have a case, even if I die, I will beat you to death first." Li Fangzheng said.
"Alas...... I didn't want to talk about it anymore, I won't let you die here. Liu Xingye said helplessly. Looking at the passage in front of them, no one was sure that it would lead to the so-called exit, and what made the three of them even more worried was what the path of the four children above would be, in short, they were now on the verge of despair, and all they had in their hands were the two life-saving straws in front of them.
"What's the light on these stone walls?" Zhou An touched a handful of damp mud on the stone wall, and put it in his hand and found that the mud glowed with an extremely faint blue light.
"I don't know, but this kind of light should be everywhere, and there is no need for flashlights or anything like that, it seems to be designed to allow future generations to enter again." After Liu Xingye finished speaking, he walked along the stone ladder to the depths of the cave, and Li Fangzheng and Zhou An had to follow Liu Xingye closely behind.
At this time, Wang Yuan and the others above had already come to the bottom of the hole they noticed when they came in, and because they were too far away from Liu Xingye, the voice of Liu Xingye when he was scratched did not let them hear it. They stood on the stone staircase at a height of more than a dozen steps and looked into the "hall" just now, and after their eyes were completely adapted to the dark environment, the whole "hall" glowed with a blue faint light, which made people feel a little creepy when they looked at it, as if they were in a nightmare.
"Zhao Bin, you know a lot, do you know what is shining?" Wang Yuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked.
"I don't know, if it's really as you said, this place was built by the people of the Underworld for more than 2,000 years, then these things have been lit up for more than 2,000 years, and it shouldn't be possible with any technology at present." Zhao Bin replied. "But one thing is for sure, they're coated with a glowing substance, and you can see that the place where the water flows is dark."
"Is it the wisdom of the ancients?" Wang Yuan nodded and said.
"It can't be their invention, if there is this technology, what kind of light bulb will be invented." Qi Zhuang on the side said.
"No matter, let's go." Wang Yuan looked at the hole hanging in the air and said.
"Wang Yuan, we'll go out, and my dad and Uncle Liu will be fine, right." Xiaoying grabbed Wang Yuan and said.
"Well, I'm the one who got you trapped here, I'll take you out, let's go find the city." Wang Yuan said.
"Hopefully it's not a dead end." Qi Zhuang on the side muttered.
"Shut your crow's mouth!" Xiaoying said.
"I'm sorry......" Qi Zhuang finished and covered his mouth with his hand.
"Don't make trouble, I'll go to the front to explore the way, Xiaoying, you are the second, followed by Zhao Bin, Qi Zhuang is the last one." Wang Yuan said.
"Okay, no problem, you have to be careful." Qi Zhuang said.
"I'll go up and have a look first, and you stay here and don't move." Wang Yuandao.
After Wang Yuan finished speaking, he began to walk up along some fragmented steps below the cave, the entrance of the cave was about three meters high from where they were standing, but those steps were unusually steep, about 45 degrees angle to the horizon, and about a meter wide on the left and right, Wang Yuan climbed up cautiously, and soon he entered the cave, the width and height of the cave were about two and a half meters, as for how long, Wang Yuan could not see clearly in the dim blue light. Wang Yuan turned around and said hello to Xiaoying and the others below and asked them to come up.
