Volume 2 Eyes of the Deep Chapter 74 Escape from Death

I gritted my teeth and persevered, but after all, we were floating in the water, and there were no support points around, so we couldn't borrow strength, and soon I felt my body involuntarily start to move in the direction of Shimen.

I panicked, and I reached out to grab something, but all I could do was the invisible water and the slippery tomb wall. I could only watch as I wanted to drift away from the fast-flowing stone gate.

Realizing that what was going to be most likely a dizzy, bumpy rafting experience was going to be, I hurriedly poked my head out, took a deep breath, and prepared myself to be swept into the current.

I reached for the flashlights and stuffed them into my pocket, they were all waterproof and shouldn't be a big problem. As soon as my flashlight was turned off, it was immediately dark, but I could still see the light of one or two flashlights still flickering, which made me know that I wasn't alone.

I wanted to ask them about it, but as soon as I opened my mouth, I was poured a few mouthfuls of water. I quickly shut my mouth.

The darkness around me made it impossible for me to see what was going on, and suddenly my hand touched a hard place, and I reached out and grabbed it, and immediately felt that it was the tomb wall, and it seemed to be the corner of the tomb wall to the doorway, and I hurriedly grabbed it with my hand, trying to prevent myself from being swept into the door by the water.

I don't know how long I can last, but I can feel that the water level is dropping, and I think if I keep going, I should be able to find a respite. At this moment, by the light of a flashlight that I don't know who was shaking, I seemed to see a surge out of the water, and I was stunned, but before I could react, suddenly I felt that one of my legs was being pulled by something.

I was taken aback by the suddenness of the situation, and a spirit almost escaped. All of a sudden, I felt the hairs on my body stand on end, and my legs immediately froze. What the hell is catching me, Zongzi? Kelpie? Or the Earth Dragon? Cold sweat has oozed from my forehead, I don't dare to continue thinking about it, my hands can't move, and my lower body is completely defenseless, in case this thing bites into the vital place, uncle, Lao Tzu is not married yet!

I thought about it as I shook my leg carefully, and since my grip was not very firm, I didn't dare to do it too widely, otherwise I would probably have rocked myself down.

But the thing that grabbed my leg was so hard and so tight that I couldn't shake it off for a while. I wanted to look back, but the straight-out posture of my arms was already straining me and I couldn't turn my head at all.

And at this moment, the thing that grabbed me actually grabbed my legs, and climbed up little by little. Now that I was about to grab the root of my thigh, I opened my mouth and shouted, "Uncle!" There's a water ghost grabbing my leg! Help me! ”

There was a lot of noise around me, the sound of the water crashing against the stone door, and the sound of the water flowing into the tomb on the right, which echoed in the tomb again, and my shouts were caught in it, and I didn't know if it had attracted the attention of the others, so I opened my mouth and shouted again: "Help! There are water ghosts ......"

Before I could finish shouting, I suddenly heard a voice behind me: "Don't ......" and then there was a gurgling bubble, and then the voice sounded again, "Don't shout......" The voice sank into the water again, and soon I heard the sound of water splashing behind me, "It's me ......"

All of a sudden, I could hear whose voice it was, uncle, it was the Lantern Festival! I yelled, "What are you doing! What are you doing grabbing my thighs! Your uncle's hurry up and let go! ”

In response to me, Lantern Xiao not only didn't let go, but also rushed forward, grabbed the backpack on my shoulder, coughed a few mouthfuls of water, and said, "Damn! Kill me! You have no righteousness, are you embarrassed to see death and not save you! I was almost swept down by the current just now, and I grabbed a leg with a grab, but I didn't expect it to be yours. You're letting me go now, isn't that putting me in danger! ”

I gritted my teeth and insisted, "You, if you don't let go now, you're putting both of us in danger!" When Lantern Xiao saw me like this, she knew that I wasn't joking, so she hurriedly said: "Don't let go, hold on, I'll figure out a way now!" ”

I didn't really want to let Lantern Xiao go, I went to look at the two shaking flashlights I saw just now, I don't know which two people are Wenmo, Second Uncle and Zhou Chengzhong. But any of them are much more capable than me, and I hope that if possible, they will come and help me.

I took a deep breath and just wanted to shout for help, but unexpectedly, the two flashlights flashed and all sank into the water. My heart also sank, and I quickly shouted: "Hey! Second uncle! Wenmo! Brother Cheng! Which of you is there! Help us! "And it was the sound of rushing water that answered me.

Lantern Xiao patted me, "Don't shout, they may have been swept up." ”

I suddenly felt a sense of loneliness, and I also felt that I had reached the limit, the fingers of my two hands were already wooden, and I said to Lantern Xiao with all my might: "Then you hurry up and find a way, otherwise ......" Before I finished speaking, I felt that the fingers of my hands were loose, and I yelled with Lantern Xiao, and I was swept into the turbulent water.

I was tossed and turned by the current, and then hit something hard, I didn't care about the pain, I tried my best to float upward, and after I rushed to the surface, I gasped for a few breaths, and then I yelled the names of the others, but there was no response.

It was pitch black, and I wanted to reach for the flashlight in my pocket, but I felt myself hit the wall all of a sudden, and for a moment I felt a sharp pain in my forehead, and then I lost consciousness......

When I woke up again, I found that I was still in the water, and I could faintly hear someone talking, my brain was buzzing, and it hurt like it was about to crack, and I couldn't help but let out a muffled grunt in my mouth.

Suddenly, I heard someone behind me speak: "Zhuoran, are you awake?" ”

I could hear the sound of Lantern Festival, and I was about to turn around to take a look, but when I found that I couldn't move, I reached out and touched it, and it turned out that I was tied to Lantern Xiao's back.

I reached out and touched my forehead, which was still in severe pain, turned my head sideways and asked, "Where are we now?" What's going on now? What about the others? ”

Lantern Xiao said in a deep voice: "You have a lot of questions! You fainted, I saved you, and someone else saved me, it's as simple as that. As for where it is, you'll find out for yourself. ”

Strangely, I turned on my flashlight and looked around. Immediately, I was scared into a cold sweat, and it turned out that the position we were in was a corridor, and a large amount of seawater rushed from it. Two or three meters in front of me was the end of the road, and on the ground at the end was a black hole about four meters in diameter. The entrance of the cave was filled with water vapor, and the flashlight could not penetrate at all, just like a huge beast's mouth, devouring everything.

A large amount of seawater flowed into the black hole along the channel, we couldn't hear any sound of seawater landing, this black hole was already very deep, maybe even bottomless, I don't know where it leads, looking at this bottomless black hole, I feel dizzy.

Thinking of the experience just now, my back was cold, and I was very afraid, if it wasn't for the Lantern Festival that saved me before I fell into this black hole along the sea, I didn't know how I died!

I patted Lantern Xiao's shoulder with my hand, "Thank you, buddy!" ”

Lantern Xiao waved his hand, "It's okay!" How are you? ”

"I'm fine," I said, "Lantern Festival, you let me go, I can do it myself." ”

"Really? Are you sure? Lantern Festival confirmed again.

"Yes! Rest assured! I nodded. So Lantern Xiao tied the mountaineering rope in his hand to his waist first, then loosened the rope tied to the two of us, tied it to my waist alone, and then handed the rope into my hand.

I held the rope tightly, and it took a lot of strength to keep myself balanced in the current, I turned my head and asked Lantern Xiao, "What should we do next?" What about the others? ”

Lantern Xiao pointed to it with a flashlight, and I looked up along the climbing rope, and I saw that about six or seven meters further up, there was a square hole, about half a person high.

The second uncle was leaning out from inside and looking down, while Wenmo was climbing on the wall with a rope, smashing gaps with a pickaxe, as if he was opening the way for us.

As soon as the second uncle lowered his head, he happened to see me, "Big nephew, are you okay?" You almost confessed to the suspense just now, and after a while, you used your pickaxe to climb up along the route smashed out by Wenmo. Can you do it? ”

I made an OK gesture to my second uncle. I raised my flashlight and looked up, only to realize that this corridor was built very high, at least twice the height of an ordinary tomb, why was it built so high in the first place? At the same time, I also found another problem, the corridor that passed through the tomb just now was not connected to any tomb, and at the end of this corridor was the black hole, which was really strange, could it be that the tomb was under this black hole?

I looked back at the black hole again, and I thought it was unlikely, after all, this was originally the imperial tomb of the Qin Dynasty, and it was too much fun to build a tomb like this, if Qin Shi Huang knew, 100% of the craftsmen who built the mausoleum would be torn apart! So what is the purpose of such construction?

But I didn't have time to think about it at the moment, the sea was still rushing, and the cold water kept hitting our bodies, and I couldn't help but shiver.

I no longer hesitated, picked up the climbing pickaxe, pulled in the climbing rope, and climbed up little by little along the route of Wenmo just now.

With the help of the second uncle and their tugging, I barely climbed up the square hole. When it was the Lantern Festival's turn, it was a little more difficult, but with the combined efforts of the three of us, the Lantern Festival was finally pulled up. At this time, I found a question, where did Zhou Cheng go?!
