Ferdinand looked at the stupid Rory and said, "I can't guarantee that you will find the lost leg of lamb when you go down, but I will reward you for your courage now." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Everyone laughed happily.

Andy looked at the rushing river and said, "What if we are swept away?" Ferdinand replied, "I have a solution, but everyone must strip naked." ”

Andy and Eric took off all their clothes when they heard Ferdinand's words, except for Rory, who looked at his bumpy chest shyly and did nothing.

Ferdinand took off all his clothes and began to tear them into strips, quickly twisting them into thick ropes. He looked at Rory, who was reluctant to take off his clothes, and said, "Aren't you looking for your leg of mutton? ”

Rory blushed and said, "I'm not used to being naked, especially in front of everyone. Eric said angrily, "I didn't see anything wrong with you when you took a shower last night. And you seem very satisfied when you deliberately show your roast leg of lamb in front of us naked, why don't you get used to it now?"

Ferdinand looked at Rory while tying the knots and said, "It's fine if you don't take off your clothes, but we don't care if a rock scrapes your clothes when everyone is in the water." With that, he stopped what he was doing and looked at Rory, who was flushed.

Rory lowered his head and reluctantly unbuttoned his shirt, and everyone present was surprised to see that this little fat man had two large pieces of bacon hanging on his chest, which was completely a homemade flesh-colored underwear.

Eric yelled, "You stinking shameless, you have hidden so much food in your clothes. He angrily went over and pulled Rory's pants down, and he saw a few thin hams hanging from the waist of the little fat man except Bacon.

Ferdinand looked at Rory, who was speechless, and laughed and said, "It seems that you have learned my spells, and you are even more powerful than me, and you can conjure so many delicacies without drawing runes." ”

Rory's face flushed, and he said with a slurp, "I just thought I could take it out when everyone was hungry." Andy walked over and smiled at Rory, who was embarrassed.

It was the first time Ferdinand had seen this little boy so happy since he had met Andy, and there was no trace of dark magic in his big innocent eyes.

Rory took out all the food and shared it with everyone, and Ferdinand grinned as he chewed on the thin ham, "I didn't expect this ham of mine to smell like urine." Rory bared his teeth and everyone laughed.

After the meal, Ferdinand tore all the clothes into strips and quickly tied the knots. He fastened the end of the knot to his right ankle and tied Andy, Eric, and Rory together.

He looked at the three children in front of him and said, "I am really happy to meet you on that murderous night and make it to the edge of this underground river alive." I don't know what's going to happen next, but I'm not afraid of death because I have the best friend I've ever met in my life. If I am in danger for a while, you must remember that you must be strong to live. I am old, you are still very young, and I hope that you will have the courage to be with you at this moment, just as I did in my brilliant knighthood. ”

The children present listened to Ferdinand's rousing speech, and they were all eager to try. After speaking, Ferdinand sprinkled himself with the cold water and told everyone to try to get used to the temperature of the river before entering the water. Then the four of them shivered and sprinkled the icy river water on themselves.

Ferdinand looked at Andy, who was trembling under him, and said, "I'll go down first, and you follow, restraining each other to avoid falling and hurting yourself." Everyone nodded in agreement. Ferdinand tried the icy water with his feet, looked at Rory on the shore and said, "I miss the hot bath last night very much. Everyone looked at each other and smiled. The old magician was the first to enter the rushing river, followed by Andy, and Eric leading Rory at the back of the group.

Ferdinand felt the rocks and walked slowly, and Rory couldn't help but cry as he was washed away by the icy water. As soon as Ferdinand turned around, his feet slipped and he fell into the water. The three children slid into the deep water with Ferdinand, and the rushing river carried them into the distance.

Ferdinand struggled desperately upward, but the current seemed to be sucked by an external force, enveloping him and flowing forward. As the speed of the water increased, he felt his consciousness blur a little, and he could see a bright door opening in front of him.

The four of them slid into a deep pool with the rapids, and before Ferdinand could recover his senses, he was struck violently by the current from above. He paddled forward desperately, and finally his left foot touched the rock at the bottom of the water, and he tried to stand up, the real drag of his foot convinced him that it was not a hallucination. He immediately tightened the rope, and the three children were dragged up one after the other like small fish hanging on a net.

With a violent cough, Andy squirted out water and snot, he bent over his knees with his hands and gasped, he felt that his nasal cavity was still slippery, but he couldn't cough it out, it was very uncomfortable. His head was as drowsy as if it had been hit, and his vision was blurred.

Eric and Rory shuddered and collapsed onto the rocks at the water's edge, and the surroundings began to slowly fall silent, except for the sound of the water running behind them.

Ferdinand untied the rope from his ankle and looked around, and he noticed that a faint white light appeared on the originally black rock, like autumn frost on the tiles on a cold night, and then countless white lights joined together to illuminate the surroundings. With the help of the white light, Ferdinand gradually saw that it was a large pool, and that there was a gap above the rock behind him, near the top of the cave, from which the water of the underground river continued to flow into the deep pool beneath his feet.
