Chapter 17: The Corpse Array

In front of us, it seems that there are not too many choices, just now the old man has gone into the water to investigate, and thinks that the water here must lead to Heize, and as long as you reach Heize, you can find the mysterious altar of the ancient Shu Kingdom, such a thing is simply in front of us, and we don't need any hesitation, because now we can't go back to the place where we came, that would be too much of a waste of time.

Zhang Hefang asked Lao Yu to explain the underwater situation in detail. The old man said: "Boss, I haven't been doing underwater business for a year or two, you have to believe me, as long as you pass those water corpses, you will definitely be able to reach the lake, and the water in it cannot be stagnant." ”

"I believe in you," Zhang Hefang said, "The crux of the problem is that we don't have professional diving equipment, so we must fight for enough time, although the people in this are in good health, but after all, they are not professionally trained like you, and we people can last three or five minutes at most in one breath." ”

The old man said: "Boss, although there are a lot of water corpses, they don't seem to take the initiative to roam and attack us, we just need to open a passage among them." ”

"The question is, who's after rushing through that crowd? How long does it take to swim to the surface of the lake? Zhang Hefang asked.

"This ......" the old man was speechless when he was asked by Zhang Hefang's words.

Everyone couldn't help frowning, and it was clear to me that everyone here was not afraid of some water corpse. They are all the top masters in the Nanwu Group, and I believe that they must have experienced many more dangerous things than water corpses. However, no matter how good their skills are, they are still human after all, and they can't grow gills to breathe, and if the distance from here to the surface of the lake is too long, then we are likely to drown in the water, and maybe we will become water corpses in the water like those guys.

It's a gamble, and the stake is your own life. Actually, Bu Jin and I are quite relaxed, because if the legend is true, then Bu Jin is immortal in spirit, and I am incorruptible in the flesh, even if we can't get out, we won't die, but Zhang Hefang and they have too much to worry about. What's more, although I know who I am, I still have an instinctive fear of death. Zhang Hefang said just now, I guess with my own physique, it is good to be able to hold it for two minutes.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Bu Jin squatted aside and said, "Don't think about it, let's go down." ”

Bu Jin has always been like this, if there is no need, she will never say a word, although she is very beautiful, but we often easily ignore its existence. As soon as she spoke, everyone's eyes looked at her in unison, only to see that she was squatting on the edge of the waterhole and holding her spirit demon jade tightly in her hand at some point. And at this moment, the light of the Spirit Demon Jade was already very dazzling, even if Bu Jin held it with his fist, there was still a trace of light shooting out along her fingers.

As soon as everyone, especially Zhang Hefang, saw the reaction of the Spirit Demon Jade, they immediately strengthened their beliefs and said to everyone: "All of you listen well, we are all members of Nanwu, and my existence is to help the Wuzong resurrect, this is our life's task, you haven't forgotten it." ”

Everyone said no, Zhang He said conveniently, "Since this is the case, then, this time, we will take a big gamble, and everyone has also seen that the reaction of the Spirit Demon Jade is very strong, so this underwater must have a great relationship with the Wu Sect, not to mention, this is Heize, we can reach the mysterious altar of the ancient Shu Kingdom through Heize." ”

Zhang Hefang was making a speech on pre-war mobilization with great interest, but at this time, Bao Ye said without saving face: "Oh, boss, there are a group of smart people here, you don't need to mobilize in front of the station here, we are all very clear about our mission, you just need to give an order, we will go down." ”

Bao Ye's words seem to be a little unkind to Zhang He, but when I listen to it, I feel a little moved in my heart, with such a subordinate, Zhang Hefang can be regarded as a successful leader.

I can't help but say, three minutes later, we each put on our goggles, took out flashlights, and each took out our guns, Bin Zi and Brother Liao even had two light submachine guns in their hands, and we entered the black and muddy water one after another. The water temperature is not very cool, but it is too turbid for people to see things in front of them, so it still feels eerie. Also, the windproof goggles are not professional diving goggles after all, and I can even feel that water is seeping into the goggles little by little, and I wish it could last a little longer.

I know a little bit about freestyle, but this is the first time I've ever dived, and I'm a little unaccustomed to it, plus I'm holding my breath and always on the lookout for any danger around me, so I'm very nervous underwater.

After about fifteen seconds of submersion, the old man at the front of the swim suddenly waved his hand and slowed us down, but we couldn't control our bodies freely under the water, so we swam forward some distance according to our inertia.

As soon as we stopped, we started looking forward with our flashlights, and by this time, the space around us was very large. When we shone the light of the flashlight in front of me and showed me what was in front of me, I twitched and almost choked on a mouthful of water.

I saw that this little passage of ours had already ended here, and in front of us, the water space had become unusually large, and it seemed like a huge football field. And at the exit of our passage, there is a group of gray-skinned "people" standing densely packed at this moment. These people don't look like normal people lying flat and floating in the water, they just float upright in the water. Their hands in the water were as weak as water snakes, but fools know that this was just a false appearance. They all had long hair, but they didn't seem to be women, they looked like they were people of ancient times, their hair was like aquatic plants and thick ink, fluttering and smudging in the water, and a pair of hollow eye holes under the frantic hair seemed to be still flashing with a faint green light. It is such a group of water corpses, and their number is staggering, and at first glance, there are not a thousand but eight hundred.

At this time, we were surprised to find that we no longer needed to use flashlights to illuminate, because at this moment, the Spirit Absorbing Demon Jade in Bu Jin's hand had already emitted an incomparably dazzling brilliance, and the penetrating power of this light was far stronger than the wolf's eye flashlight, and for a while, the group of water corpses appeared alive in front of us.

But the water corpses didn't attack us. The old man gestured at us twice at the front, which seemed to mean that we should watch his actions. I saw that the old man took out his lighter from his pocket and threw it fiercely in the water to the location of the water corpse. I could tell that the old man had used a lot of strength, but in the water, the lighter still floated very slowly in front of the water corpse.

Just when the lighter was less than half a meter away from the water corpse, suddenly, a water corpse suddenly moved, he grabbed the lighter, and there was no other movement after that.

The old man nodded at us, I think he meant that these water corpses would not take the initiative to attack us. Bin Zi and Brother Liao naturally loaded the submachine guns, and waited for Zhang Hefang's order.

At this time, I habitually glanced at Bu Jin and found that she was staring at the group of water corpses in front of her with bated breath, and there was no superfluous expression on her face. I'm a little strange, I've seen the Spirit Demon Jade several times before, but this time, although the Spirit Demon Jade had an obvious reaction, Bu Jin didn't seem to want to use the Spirit Demon Jade to deal with those water corpses.

Zhang Hefang waved his hand to let the old man return to our side and stand on the same parallel line as us. Then, as soon as he waved his hand, among the people, except for Bu Jin, all the people began to shoot wildly at those water corpses, and for a while, the limbs of the water corpses in front of us flew sideways, we didn't dare to stop, according to the previous design, we charged while shooting, hoping to kill a bloody way in the middle of this group of water corpses.

However, the problem arose, as soon as we opened fire, we found that the water corpses that were not attacked by us also reacted. At that moment, our scalps were numb, and we thought that a large wave of water corpses was about to chase after us, but we were surprised to find that those water corpses were just struggling, and had no intention of attacking us. For a while, all the water corpses flew up and down like dumplings in boiling water, and they were in chaos.

Within ten seconds of everyone shooting, Zhang Hefang noticed this and hurriedly asked everyone to stop firing.

Wrong! I also noticed something was wrong! Zhang Hefang pointed at the ankles of those water corpses at us, and we looked along, and a strange atmosphere instantly spread, only to see that the ankles of those groups of water corpses were actually cuffed with heavy iron chains, and all the iron chains hung down into the deepest part of Kurosawa Lake to the place where we could not see.

In an instant, we understood! These water corpses are not guards guarding this place at all, they are trapped here.
