Section 036 Drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle
Outside the underground river channel is a sunken basin in the mountains, the spring water and streams gushing out from the surrounding mountains converge into the basin, forming a large swamp, in the center of the basin a towering ancient tree, like a tall building, under the tree is the base of the tree composed of countless animal skins and dry bones, there are small beasts like mice, and there are huge skeletons that can be compared to war rhinos, from a distance, the white vast is a big piece. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The vast root system of the Ancient Tree covered the entire swamp, and the lush canopy of the trees almost connected to the surrounding mountains. Countless tiny branches hung down from the thick branches that stretched on all sides, some swaying in mid-air, some burrowing deep into the earth, and countless tiny silk vines stretched out from each branch, sniffing and wriggling in the wind like life.
In the water on the ground, the thick roots are covered with hair-like fine velvet that floats and swings in the water!
The outlet of the underground river is located below a mountain, next to the swamp, and is the only outlet in the basin, and the roots and branches of the blood-filled ancient trees firmly seal the hole, preventing the creatures in the water from escaping.
The already enlightened Blood-Adding Ancient Tree has made this basin its captive garden. All creatures in the basin are food in captivity, and those that inadvertently enter will not escape the fate of being devoured.
The blood of the ancient wood devoured was very clean, not even a trace of fur remained, and the water that poured into the underground dark river was extremely clear, not even the unique rancid smell of the swamp, and the air was cool and refreshing.
Zhang Dongming and the four of them sat on the stones protruding from the water under the stone wall, and the low whimper of the ghost was heard from the deep river, as if they were paying tribute to their deceased kind.
"We're trapped to death!" Tian Xixi said with his arms and knees crossed, and the girl who killed Matt has matured a lot along the way.
"It would be nice to light a fire, the tentacles of the blood-filled ancient wood seem to be easy to ignite!" Beautiful girls sometimes speak without going through their brains, and they still look forward to the wonderful fairy tale world, far less realistic than the average looking girl.
Zhang Dongming pondered, territorial exploration could not bring him more information, the dark river was under a big mountain, and he wanted to open a passage to get out, unless the mountain was broken through.
The Lin Mu Zhan Rhino Clan behind didn't know if they had chased after it, if the Lin Mu Zhan Rhino Clan really regarded the Rocky Slope as a permanent station, they would definitely chase and kill them - they would not let go of a person who knew about the existence of the underground passage.
Perhaps this passage will be their last refuge in case of danger! The pursuit of the two ghosts is proof of this, and if the ghosts do not return for a long time, they will definitely rush over to patrol.
How to escape the pursuit of the forest herding war rhino clan, how to escape the interception of the bloody ancient tree?
Territory Exploration......
Territory Exploration......
After staying in the dark river for a long time, the exploration of skill territory has begun to play its function again, and it seems that there is a time limit for occupying a territory, and simply passing by the Celestial God attribute board is not recognized as a territory.
The water at the exit is level with the swamp, the roots of the blood-filled ancient trees are densely covered with the swamp, and the thick branches cover the sky, colluding with each other to envelop the world.
The springs gushing out of the mountains are abundant, and dozens of streams flow into the basin, spreading throughout the basin and flowing into the dark river.
There's always a way!
Zhang Dongming carried a rhino horn more than one meter long and got up and touched the way he came, with territory to explore, it was the same with or without lighting.
The ghost ray had retreated far past the narrow section of the dark river, hidden in an undetectable place, and it was safe in front of it.
The territorial exploration showed the situation at the bottom of the river, hitting the stone wall with rhino horns, the stone wall was harder than expected, and the rhino horns were easy to pierce into the stones on the rocky slope, and Zhang Dongming used all his strength in the dark river, but only smashed a small depression on the stone wall.
After exploring a circle, I chose the section of more than ten meters at the front end of the narrowest part of the underground river, there is no living creature in the river, indicating that this is not the original waterway of the basin river, it should be that after the blood ancient wood occupied here, the original waterway was blocked, and the water in the basin had nowhere to vent, so it rushed into the underground river, and the blood ancient wood closed the water outlet and began to captivate the creatures trapped in the swamp.
If the underground river is blocked, it is too much to know whether the water in the basin will return to its original outlet or continue to rise until the mountain cannot resist the water pressure and collapse.
Territory exploration knows very little about the basin and can only be guessed based on a limited number of scenarios.
Lin Muzhan Rhino's pursuers may arrive soon, and they haven't found the ghost hidden in the shadows for a long time, and the time is limited, so Zhang Dongming can't look forward or backward.
Together with Chen Lu and the three of them, they began to block the underground dark river!
There are countless broken stones at the front end of the narrow place, Zhang Dongming's god attribute power has reached 7 points, with the help of the buoyancy of the water flow, it can push 4 tons of stones, first retreat the stone to the narrow place, and lay out more than ten meters in the high masonry little by little.
The water level in the narrow section of the underground river is also turbulent, only a few tens of centimeters from the top of the cave, and the stones in the Saitian River are accumulating higher and higher, and the water level in the river is also getting higher. The four people separated, Zhang Dongming stayed on the inside to lay stones, and the other three retreated to the outside, the river was blocked by most of the way, the water level on the inside rose, and the flow on the outside was almost cut off!
The terrain of the basin surrounded by mountains is not high, and a section of the river channel chosen by Zhang Dongming is in a higher place, and after the river is raised by more than one meter, the basin begins to accumulate water, and the water level of the wide basin cannot keep up with the speed of the river blockage for a while, and the blocking of the river channel is simpler.
The water level could not come up for a while, so Zhang Dongming simply smashed countless fine gravel with rhino horn and stuffed it into the cracks of the stone, and the plug was added more tightly.
The last boulder is the most difficult to put, and it is not easy to plug the gaps, Zhang Dongming retreated and put the selected stone, retreated through the stone embankment more than ten meters long, and plugged the space above from the outside, although the stone plugged from the outside may not be able to play a role, but it is better than nothing.
The underground channel had been cut off, and only a small strip of water seeping out of the cracks in the stone pooled and flowed slowly.
Tian Xixi cheered, "It's done, after the water level rises, will the blood-adding ancient wood be drowned!"
Who cares about the result!
People are about to die, and they can't see the peace of a good person's life! Adding blood to Gumu blocked the four of them in an underground river, and if they didn't do something that people and gods were angry about, it would be a hell of a curse! Zhang Dongming didn't have Tian Xixi's brainless sentiment of willing to sacrifice his life and forget to betray the organization!
After the water level in the basin is raised, the embankment in the dark river will withstand strong water pressure, and it is likely that there is a danger of collapsing, the four people hid in a depression in the side wall of the dark river, Zhang Dongming's physique is the highest in the outermost, and the rhino horn is sealed in front of the depression, once the strong water pressure washes away the embankment, the turbulent torrent will instantly fill the river, violently scouring the stone wall, and a swirl will be formed in the side wall depression, and if you are not prepared, it will be sucked into the river by the whirlpool.
There was a piercing grinding sound from the stones blocking the river, the water level was rising, the water pressure was increasing, and the water seeping out of the cracks in the stones slowly flowed down the stones, and then slowly raised its head and arched, throwing a white line of water like a little boy peeing.
