Chapter 27: Parting Ways

What the?

Hearing this, we were all very surprised, and Ma Yiao hurriedly asked, "What do you mean, this waterhole is another passage to the secret realm of Baxia?" ”

Hu Che nodded, and said yes - Baxia Secret Realm, that's what you say, my father called it the Turtle Tomb, and he also took me to the inside, but I didn't dare to go too deep, we also took some things at the Yongdao crossing of the Turtle Tomb, and my father took out the mountain to sell it for money, changed some clothes and a lot of salt back.

I looked at the unturned baggage, which contained freshly changed clothes and pants, full of piles, but nothing but clothes.

Ma Yiao asked, "The gang that killed your parents went into the water?" ”

Hu Che took a deep breath and said yes, it was in the water, and it was a little long, almost more than half an hour.

Ma Yiao frowned, and said You just said that in this world, except for your parents, only you know where the other entrance to the secret realm of Baxia is, but why can these people find it directly, and it seems that they have been prepared for a long time? Did your parents tell them?

Hu Che shook his head and said no, when my father and mother were killed, I heard it clearly in the cabinet in the back room, they just sneak attacked, and they killed people when they came in, without saying a word.

Ma Yiao rubbed his temples with his hand and said that this is impossible, why is it so strange? Could it be that there are other people who are looking for the secret realm of hegemony?

Judging from the performance of those people, killing people is not the main purpose, whether it is abducting innocent villagers outside the mountain, or sneaking up on Hu Che's parents in this Mazi Village, it is just a means, and the real purpose is likely to be directly aimed at the secret realm.

The reason for the sneak attack on Hu Che's parents was because they were sure that the couple knew the secrets of the secret realm under the tyranny, so they wanted to kill people and kill them.

As for the abduction of the villagers, what is the purpose of the abduction?

How could it be so coincidental? When we came to find the secret realm of the tyrant, did we meet these people?

Ma Yiao was confused, and I was also puzzled, but Hu Che was obviously unwilling to wait, and said to us: "Don't think about it, whatever you want to do, you have to go in first-if you find anything for these guys, you won't be able to find anything by then." ”

Hearing this, Ma Yiao sighed and said that if he had known this, he should have called Hainie over.

Indeed, as an aquatic nightcrawler, Haini, who soaks in the vat every day, is the most suitable to come here, but unfortunately it is a fat flower that follows us.

Ma Yiao is not a hesitant person, and after sighing, he said to me: "How are you watery?" ”

I grew up by the river since I was a child, and the water nature is okay, and after the nightcrawler bloodline of the "Lingming Stone Monkey" awakened, the kung fu of holding my breath is also first-class, and I don't flinch at the moment, saying it's okay, I have no problem.

Ma Yiao looked at Hu Che again, and the young man showed a cold smile, saying I have been to the secret realm from here, what do you say?

Ma Yiao didn't ask any more, but ordered: "Feihua, you can't be watery, stay here, one is to wait for Martin, meet him, explain the situation to him, and the other one is to answer us - of course, if it comes out for a while, it's someone else, you just keep a little heart, just remember the appearance and characteristics of those people, don't act rashly, you know?" ”

With that, he handed a gold silk embroidered edge bag to Feihua and asked her to hold it.

There is a talisman to converge with Martin.

Then he said to the leper boy Hu Che: "Go, you lead the way—by the way, how far do you need to dive?" ”

Hu Che said that on weekdays, it takes more than 30 meters, and he can't get up halfway, but now that the water is rising, it is not necessarily.

Ma Yiao asked me, "Is there a problem?" ”

I took a deep breath, nodded and said "OK", several people no longer hesitated, and began to prepare before entering the water, I took off the thick raincoat on my body, and handed the backpack to Fat Hua, took off the long clothes and trousers, and left the close-fitting clothes, at this time Ma Yiao handed over a short blade and said to me: "There may be various situations inside, you take it for self-defense." ”

I took the short blade, which was shorter than the usual dagger, handmade, with a locust wood handle, with red cotton thread entwined, and a blade about two inches long, with a one-sided edge, and a snow shining in the light of the torch.

The knife is fast.

Ma Yiao also took off his clothes, and even beat his shirtless, revealing the strong upper body of his eight-pack abs, he stretched his whole body, and under the light of the torch, every muscle was glowing, and it seemed to be full of explosive power.

Unlike me, he also prepared a tarp, wrapped his back and tied it around his body.

As for Hu Che next to him, he quickly took off his clothes, revealing his rickety and deformed figure - his feet were high and low, and there were many strip-shaped tumors on his body, and there was yellowish mucus oozing from them.

The sight was a little sick to my stomach, and I even felt a little scared.

If I go into the pool with him, will I be infected?

Before I could figure it out, the young man tightened the red belt around his waist, pinned the firewood knife, and jumped directly into the turbid and unclear pool of water.

The waterway was long, and when he got it, Ma Yiao was afraid of losing it, so he also went into the water.

I was the last to go into the water, as soon as I jumped into the pool, I felt the current rushing over, trying to push me downstream, I bit the short blade that Ma Yiao gave me in my mouth, and then stretched out my hands and began to swim to the bottom of the pool, because the water was too muddy, and it was dark again, I tried to open my eyes, but found that it was dark, and I could only judge the direction of Ma Yiao and Hu Che by the general feeling and the current in front of me, and then followed closely.

I swam to the bottom of the pool, to the left, and after a while, I reached out and touched the rock, and as I continued to touch, I probably felt a hidden passage hidden deep at the bottom of the pool near the mountain wall.

Hu Che and Ma Yiao had already swam into the waterway, I was hit by the current, and basically had no sight, and the distance between the two of them, so I was a little anxious, and hurriedly followed, but the water in the waterway was a little turbulent, constantly rushing outside, making me a little difficult to walk, and even kept sliding out.

If it had been a normal day, I would have given up and quickly surfaced to catch my breath, but at this time, I was able to hold on with my will.

I swam as hard as I could, and if the current was too strong, I tried to reach for the rock wall next to me, stabilize my body a little, and then move on.

This part of the dive trip was extremely challenging for me, especially after a day of mountain travel and physical and mental exhaustion.

However, just when I felt that I couldn't hold on, with the operation of the "Nine Xuanlu", my heart beat steadily, and one after another force filled my whole body, warm, not only that, but also moistened and stretched my almost dry lungs all at once.

It's like you've reached your limit during a long-distance run, and you think you're going to lie down, but after trying to persevere and gritting your teeth, it's as if you've surpassed that limit.

At that time, you can develop more energy and continue to rush forward.

I'm wrestling with myself.

With my will, and the strength in my veins, I walked forward little by little, facing the turbulent undercurrent, but the process of diving was so long that I even felt a little desperate.

Ma Yiao and the leper boy Hu Che have long since disappeared.

I thought that there was a long way to go, and at this time, even if I gave up moving forward and swam back, I am afraid that this breath may not be able to hold on to the outside.

Just when I thought I really couldn't do it, the top of my head in front of me suddenly emptied, and I suddenly paddled my hands and feet, and kicked my feet, but it surfaced.

Because of the darkness, I wasn't sure what was going on here, but I heard a slight sound of wind coming from not far away, as if a ghost was crying in a cave, which made my heart contract suddenly, and fear arose, and after taking a few deep breaths, I put the short blade in my right hand, and couldn't help shouting, "Brother Ma? Brother Ma ......"

I shouted, but nothing came back but reverberation.

I was a little scared, because when I was sneaking just now, I had already lost touch with Ma Yiao and Hu Che, and finally found the exit at this moment, but I didn't see anyone, and there was no movement, in such a claustrophobic and silent environment, everything was unknown, and there seemed to be a terrifying monster lurking in the dark, and the loneliness suddenly arose.

I shouted my companion's name as I swam to the side.

Fortunately, the exit was not wide, and soon I felt the rocks at the edge, and hurriedly climbed up, and as I left the water, I rolled over, lay down on the rocks, and let out a long breath of turbidity.

Call......

Sure enough, this time, it was really thrilling, and I almost didn't die.

If I hadn't had a little foundation that I had learned in the small courtyard of Yangcheng in those days, I am afraid that I would really drown in this long underground undercurrent.

I lay down for more than ten seconds, or half a minute, before I got up again, feeling sore, shaking both feet, and it was a little difficult to stand up.

Even so, I held on, looking left and right, trying to find a moving figure in the dark field of vision—even if it was dark, the retina could still catch moving objects if someone moved.

However, no matter how I looked, I didn't see anyone.

What's going on?

I was a little confused, and after thinking about it for a while, I realized that I was probably going the wrong way.

Because Hu Che had said before, almost more than 30 meters of diving and swimming dark road, but recalling the distance I just swam, I went, not to mention 30 meters, 60 meters are possible, think about it carefully, even if this waterhole rises again, the waterway below will not change, so speaking, I may really swim too much.

"Brother Ma, Brother Ma; Huche ......"

I shouted twice, but still didn't respond, and went back to the water, staring at the shaky, dark water, wondering if I should go back again.

After all, in this dark underground cave, it is really dangerous to really get lost with someone.

It's just that I've just escaped from the suffocating waterway, and if I want to go back at the moment, I'm still a little resistant and afraid.

And at this moment, a beam of light hit me from a distance and fell on me.

In this dark environment, I was suddenly illuminated by a strong light, and my vision suddenly fell into a white expanse, but even so, I still tried to open my eyes, trying to see who was coming, but I heard a woman's voice over there say, "Huh? Hou Mo, why are you here? ”
