Chapter 172: The Dead Underground
(Cat flutter Chinese) "Oh my God, we're still making promises, how deep is this hole!"
"Hold me tight, save your strength and don't talk!"
"Are we going to fall to the center of the earth?"
"I don't know, with me underneath, you don't have to be afraid!"
"Why did you sacrifice yourself to save me?"
"Because you also saved me, the grace of saving my life should be repaid by a spring!"
"With you by my side, I'm not so scared anymore, thank you. The latest free chapters of the book can be found here. ”
"No"
......
Zhang Tian and Princess Maya kept falling, and although the darkness was getting thicker and thicker around them, they could feel that the deep hole was getting bigger and bigger.
In order to resist the fear of falling into the unknown, they kept talking loudly in the fall.
"Poof!"
It took a full half an hour before the two finally fell into the water, and the water was very deep, and they finally unloaded the power of the fall.
Relying on the swimming skills he learned in Lijia Village, Zhang Tian floated to the surface with the unconscious Mayan princess in his arms, but the tomahawk and shield fell underwater.
He secretly screamed in his heart that it was a pity, but he felt that the armor on his body was getting heavier and heavier, and he was busy taking Princess Maya to choose a direction to swim.
Zhang Tian couldn't touch the land after swimming for a while, but he was so tired that he gasped for breath, and his swimming speed slowed down more and more.
He hugged Princess Maya tightly, although he couldn't drag her anymore, but deep down he had the idea that he couldn't leave his life-saving benefactor, so he still insisted.
After swimming for a while, Zhang Tian's mouth had sunk to the water several times, but he was forced to float, and he never felt that the armor on his body was so heavy.
After his mouth was flooded with water for the last time, he desperately struggled upstream, but he was already out of strength and convulsed, and he sank into the water in despair and helplessness.
Zhang Tian's consciousness gradually fell unconscious, and when he was half-asleep, his eyes gradually lit up, and there were familiar voices echoing in his ears.
"Zhang Tian, wake up, wake up, you can't sleep here, you have to go home, that home called Shenzhou"
Zhang Tian slowly opened his eyes, and his eyes widened suddenly, because Alice, who was as white as snow, appeared in front of him, smiling and encouraging himself.
He reached out to touch the white body in front of him, and Alice also stretched out her palm, and the hands of the two really touched together.
Alice grabbed Zhang Tian's hand and floated upward, and looked at Zhang Tian with an encouraging smile, like a goddess's gentle smile, which made people feel very warm.
Zhang Tian floated upward, and after leaving the water, all the light disappeared, but he also found that he was standing in the chestless water, and he had unconsciously swam to the shore.
He suddenly kicked down and sank into the water, and never saw Alice again, as if it had just been a hallucination.
Zhang Tian stood up again in frustration, lifted Princess Maya on his back, and then walked cautiously towards the shore, because he had seen the land in the distance.
As he walked ashore with Princess Maya on his back, he found that in front of him was the walls of a huge dead city, behind which countless ancient buildings were hidden.
Carefully carrying the Mayan princess to the land, only to find that the two of them were actually in the moat of this giant city, just a moat is so deep, and the scale of the city must be huge.
Zhang Tian put the Mayan princess on dry ground, and saw that there was no sound of living people in the whole city, and it was covered with thick dust, thinking that it should be an abandoned dead city.
He decided to stay here and wait for Princess Maya to wake up, silently watching the place where he had just stood up, and his heart couldn't help but feel sad when he thought of Alice.
After a while, Princess Maya opened her eyes, only to vaguely see a dark figure standing in front of her, and immediately cried in fear.
"Don't be afraid, I'm watching over you. Zhang Tian said to Princess Maya without looking back, his eyes still fixed on the water.
Princess Maya heard Zhang Tian's voice, and finally stopped crying, "Is it really you, have we died to the underworld, and I didn't expect to die with you, a black-haired man." ”
Zhang Tian said angrily, "You and I are not dead, and don't call me a black-haired person, just call me Zhang Tian, I don't want to be thrown here and stand up quickly." ”
Princess Maya cried again, "Why do you say that, am I so annoying, no one has ever been so cruel to me. Woo."
Zhang Tian was sentimental Alice, and he didn't pay attention to Princess Maya's sadness when he was in an irritated mood, but just quietly looked at the water.
"Are you really a ruthless person, don't you know how to help a helpless girl stand up?" Princess Maya saw that Zhang Tian had no intention of making her happy, so she had to stop crying and complain.
Zhang Tian saw that Princess Maya was no longer crying and coquettish, so he turned around and walked over, holding her arm and standing up.
Seeing that Princess Maya was very frightened and nervous, his heart softened and comforted, "We have fallen to the edge of a large underground dead city, and there is no movement in the city, and there is no light to illuminate it, so you can help me walk slowly." ”
Princess Maya saw that Zhang Tian's tone became gentle, and there was no strange transfer, so she immediately relaxed.
She looked horrified at the darkness and asked, "Is this really a city, why is there no one?"
Zhang Tian glanced around and said, "There is no exit here, and the moat is also stagnant, let's go into the city and have a look." ”
Princess Maya couldn't see anything, so she had to pull her tension, "Okay, everything is up to you, but can you really see what is here?"
Zhang Tian said impatiently, "Just follow it, I won't take you to hit the wall." ”
"Hmm. Princess Maya answered obediently and followed Zhang Tian carefully.
Although she felt that Zhang Tian pretended to be able to see things in the dark, it was for the sake of comforting herself, otherwise it would be too terrible for the two of them to walk in a world without light.
Princess Maya blushed when she thought about it, and even her body was slightly hot, and she quietly leaned on Zhang Tian's back.
Although Zhang Tian felt that Princess Maya was a little strange, he only let her get closer because she was afraid, and continued to walk towards the end of the city wall unexpectedly.
After walking for a long time, I finally saw the tall gate, which seemed to be made of high-grade metal, and there was a drawbridge over the moat.
Zhang Tian took the Mayan princess across the long suspension bridge and was shocked again when he came to the gate, which was so huge and so small in front of it.
He walked to the metal door with trepidation, tried to push it, and found that he could push it slightly, and the inside did not seem to be locked.
Zhang Tian took another deep breath, put his hands on the gate on the left, and shouted, "I pushed the city gate, don't be afraid." ”
Princess Mara smartly touched Zhang Tian's arm, put her hand on the door and said, "Well, you push it, and I will also contribute." ”
Zhang Tian smiled, mobilized all his strength to push forward, and Princess Maya also pushed hard, and the metal gate was slowly pushed.
"Giggle...... Whew......"
I don't know how many years have not opened the city gate opened again, making a piercing friction sound, and now it can still push in addition to Zhang Tian's strange power, there is also the reason why the construction of this gate is of excellent workmanship and quality.
Princess Maya nervously asked, "What's inside, do you see people?"
Zhang Tian saw that the city was full of thick dust, and the ground was full of knee-deep ash, without any appearance of any living thing.
He sighed and said, "There are no living people here, only dust, let's go into the city and see." ”
"Okay. Princess Maya nodded in agreement.
The two walked into the city gate for a few minutes, and suddenly a huge male voice sounded, and his tone was full of vicissitudes and exhaustion.
"You have broken into the capital of the Divine Demon Race, disturbed our sleep for 10,000 years, and left Xing's life as hard labor!" Cat flutter Chinese
