CHAPTER XIV
The scene in front of him caught Quercus off guard, but he didn't expect that just a moment later, the river would soar to this point.
I don't know if the builder here did it on purpose, it is expected that the river here will rise to this point, and the entire hall has indeed increased the treatment of the height, at this time the river water just flooded the steps when the tree forest came, and it did not continue to rise.
Seeing that the way to come was cut off, Quercus had no idea for a while, and sat cross-legged by the water, thinking about the next retreat.
At the moment, there is a lack of weapons and food, and the short knife before has long been unknown where to throw it, although it seems that the environment is safe now, but if you encounter any danger, the forest must be more auspicious.
Food can be caught from the river for the time being, but there are no plants here, there is no fire at all, with raw fish meat can not last long, more importantly, the crystal light source energy at hand is completely exhausted, there is no way to replenish in this situation, if you leave this crystal cave, you can only move forward in the dark, this is obviously not a good choice,
Invisibly, the oak forest was trapped in this underground space,
The road in front of him was basically blocked, the road ahead was dark, and there was a trace of wavering in Quercus's heart, and he even felt that it was not as happy as being bitten to death by a sandworm just now.
Shaking his head to give up this terrible thought, what he needs most at this time is a firm mind, and he can't tolerate the slightest relaxation.
The river water that swelled to the feet in front of me was surprisingly calm, basically no fluctuations, although it was in the desert, but the underground water system was extremely developed, it actually filled such a huge space in such a short time, the river water was clear and transparent, the visibility was extremely high, and the crystal submerged in the bottom of the water The texture became transparent, if it wasn't for all the way, at this time, the oak forest on the shore could not see what sharp and abnormal danger existed under the water,
At this moment, it is June, it is the driest time of the year, and it will take at least two months before the flood season, even if it is a developed underground water system, it will not skyrocket to this extent, I don't know what the specific reason for the river surge at this time is caused, and I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse.
Zhulin thought about these haves and haves, and suddenly his mind was attracted by a ripple coming from the calm water in front of him,
The river with high visibility made the tree forest immediately realize that it was a fish, and the river water was soaring, and it was spreading joy at this time.
Although it is a precious food, but at this time the oak forest is not interested in this fish, one is that he is now in a worrying situation, no mood, and the other is that the water is now basically sharp and extremely sharp and integrated with the river crystal clusters, there is no fishing tools at this time the water is really dead, and can only be temporarily let go,
How do you know that the oak forest doesn't care about it, but it struggles to swim in the direction of the oak forest, and swims a little closer to the oak forest to see it more really,
This is a grass carp endemic to the desert, and although there are not many of them, there is a great chance to catch this delicious fish in some desert oases around Alma, and it is not difficult to find in general,
Quercus forest does not eat much fish on weekdays, only occasionally seen a few times in the stall of the butcher shop, and is impressed because this fish is yellowish all around, but the fins are dark green or pure black, as if the creator who created them is the wrong color, the contrast is obvious, except for the conspicuous basically has no protective effect,
Wait a minute!
Quercus suddenly realized that it was impossible to see this kind of fish that only grew in the shallow waters of the desert oasis in the environment he was in, and the eyes of the black fish he caught before had been degraded, indicating that a unique underground biome had been formed here.
This underground river is connected to a desert oasis somewhere!
When I came, I found that the river was rushing and flowing, which means that this underground space is not a place of confluence, and the reason why the water level will skyrocket is only because the total amount of river water poured into the upstream temporarily exceeds the amount of downstream, but this is basically temporary, and it will not take long for the water to reced.
As I said earlier, it is the dry season at this time, and even the water level of the desert oasis is not too high, and there is even a possibility that some places will dry up, and the water in the upper reaches will soon be depleted because it cannot be replenished.
So as long as the water level reaches a low enough point, it is possible for him to return to the surface from the waterway!
After thinking about all this, the flame of hope in the oak forest burned anew, and the whole person recovered from the gloomy state, looking at the dull sand fish in front of him as cute as an angel,
For now, just be patient,
I don't know how long it took, but as the water in front of him began to recede rapidly, and soon returned to the level when the tree forest first came, and it didn't stop there.
The water-stained crystal ground was extremely smooth, and there were crystals as sharp as knives all around, and growing up in the desert, he experienced for the first time what it means to walk on thin ice.
It took about twice as long as the time it had come, and the oak forest had returned to the side of the river, and the water level had dropped to the thigh, revealing the deep holes on both sides of the river.
The crystal light source in his hand has been thrown away by the Quercus, at this time it is completely unrealistic to move forward in the dark, the Quercus broke a crystal, took it in his hand, returned to the cave when he came, and scraped off some unknown substances that emitted blue light from the wall, but fortunately, these substances still emit a soft blue light after leaving the wall,
Quercus took off his clothes and wrapped these blue light substances, which can be regarded as a faint light source.
Back to the river bank, at this time the water level has receded to the calf, Quercus recognized the direction, held the simple light source, and walked in the upstream direction, hoping to find the place where the underground dark river and the desert oasis water system are connected before the next rising water.
The river water is cold, and the oak forest can't take care of so much, holding the cloth bag that emits a faint blue light and moving forward carefully step by step,
The river is washed by water all the year round and is quite smooth, at this time it does not create any obstacles to the oak forest, after walking for a while, the surrounding space has become wider, and the surrounding area has also changed from dense spars to the ordinary scene in cognition, a large number of pebbles began to appear on the riverbed, and craggy stalactite pillars also appeared overhead,
After walking some distance, the tree forest stopped, and the road in front of him split into two and divided into two directions.

The man leaned against the chimney and coughed for a moment
"Let's find a place to hide first, the clue of the millennium pointer can't be broken here, now it's okay, fight the grass and scare the snake, you have to go in another way"
"What is wrong? It was all carried out according to the established procedure, why was the result different this time?" The man seemed to be talking to himself, took out a golden disc from his arms, touched the uneven lines on it with his hand, and then carefully put it away close to his body,
"Forget it, it's messy, it's messy, maybe it's a good thing, let's get out of here first"
The little girl stood quietly next to the man, and when she heard the man's command, she turned around and stood up against the man
"Hey, I can walk on my own" The man struggled as if to break free from the little girl's grasp,
The girl ignored the man, turned around and carried the man and disappeared into the night. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
