XXXVIII. Water Monsters
"Shuya, smart. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info You give me the lamp. I'll go down and meet this thing. "The old man's words made us all startled. This is a courage worthy of praise for knowing that there are tigers in the mountains and biasing towards the tigers, but it is a bit stupid to go down and die.
The old man kept dissuading us, shouting at us, "Be smart, count how many flares you have." ā
Brother Qiang naturally disagreed with the old man going into the water, this is not a joke. Looking at the size of the monster, I am afraid that if I stuff the old man into my mouth, I will only be able to stuff my teeth. He doesn't deserve to be a toothpick.
But the old man is very persistent, and we can also see that he is not capable. Brother Qiang only had two flares in his bag, and there were some glow sticks, but the old man said that these things were useless.
The old man fell into the water one by one, and soon swam to the center of the pool, and several bubbles bulged out, revealing half of his head in front of the old man.
The old man did not retreat, but advanced, and swam towards the monster without any weapons. I sweated in my heart, this monster opened its mouth, and the old man probably had to fall asleep and the water was swept into the monster's mouth.
The old man swam closer and closer, and my hands began to tremble.
"This monster is blind and has no eyes, what is the use of the old man asking for flares?" Brother Qiang muttered on the side, and I realized that the exposed part of the monster was like an irregular ball, and it did not have eyes.
Just when the old man's hand almost touched the monster, the monster's head jerked upward, setting off a stack of water waves, pushing the old man back a few meters, and opening his mouth wide.
Since the monster had its back to us, we couldn't see the situation in its mouth, but Cong Shuya, who was opposite us, covered her mouth, obviously seeing something extremely frightened.
The old man came out of the water, and a flare went straight into the monster's mouth. The monster tore with its mouth wide open, and half of the cave was illuminated by a red light.
The monster writhed and turned its head at us, and I gasped. The monster's mouth is covered with sarcomas like human heads, layered on top of each other, and these sarcomas really have the same lines as their facial features. It was like a bunch of people looking at me with hideous heads.
The old man yelled, "Be smart, swim over, get your flares ready." There is a chance to do it again. ā
I snatched the flare from Brother Qiang's hand and swam towards the opposite side. The first flare made the monster suffer, probably hearing the sound of water from me, and biting it with its mouth wide open. The sarcomas in my mouth squirmed, and I made the thing vomit in disgust, and the hairs on my body stood on end.
With a flick of his hand, two flares were thrown in again, and the monster writhed and sank a few times. Two flares and two flames must have burned the monster to the point where I felt a pang of discomfort in my own mouth.
The old man suddenly turned around and swam backwards, shouting, "Hurry up, or he'll be three beef jerky when he recovers." ā
But when we swam past and looked back, the sparkling waves were very calm.
I breathed a sigh of relief, "What is this, how did it grow into such a virtuous thing?" Before he finished speaking, Shui Ming suddenly puffed up a bag from the boss. The old man was in a hurry, and his face even called out to me, hurry forward.
We ran forward with our hunches on our backs, and suddenly a cloud of water poured in behind us, drowning me throughout. The water was rising so fast that I didn't have time to react. But in an instant the water began to sink again, and if it hadn't been for my quick grasp of the sharp stone on one side, I would have been back in the pool. The water was flowing too fast, and I was still holding a flashlight in one hand, but before I could react, the flashlight rolled with the water and disappeared.
I was too nervous and very rushed. I drank two sips of water in a row, and the smell made me uncomfortable. But in an instant, water came up from below, and I was like a little worm in a straw, so I could only desperately hold on to the sharp stone, and unconsciously a bloody hole was strangled out of my palm.
"Brother Qiang, you have to get some clothes back when you go back to set up a mound for me, don't you care about me?" I had no choice but to shout at the flashlight in front of me.
The water receded, and my whole arm was sore, and if there was another wave, I was afraid that I would not be able to suck it in. Brother Qiang was also anxious in front, "Smart, see that the rope is not, grab me, and we will pull you up." ā
I was already in complete darkness, and I could only see with the light that had been passed down from above, and I couldn't find the rope after a desperate fumbling effort. "Did you throw down the belt of your trousers, how long is this rope, why isn't it? ā
The water came up again, and as soon as I let go, I rolled forward and walked out for a long time. My ass hit the sharp rock, the angle was very tricky, and the chrysanthemum hurt, and I almost cried. The body that had been bowed immediately became straight. But after all, life and death were at stake, and my mind was still quite clear, and I groped wildly, trying to find a sharp stone to hold in case it was sucked back by the current.
I grabbed a soft thing while groping, and as soon as I touched it, I knew it was a piece of rope, and shouted at Brother Qiang, "I caught it, pull it quickly." ā
Brother Qiang will definitely pull me up desperately at the first time, but when the water starts to flow backwards, the rope is still soft. I secretly said that it was bad, I must have caught some kind of dead ghost thing. Sure enough, the current quickly retreated, but the rope kept going down along the current. Brother Qiang didn't know what he was shouting, and I couldn't hear it when I was buried in the water.
I had to throw the rope and look for the sharp stone again. The water receded, and I felt the light coming from me fainter, and it was clear that I was closer to the pool than before.
Some of the water was pouring into the pool, and I didn't bother to wait, so I bent down and rushed forward. The light was too dim, and from time to time he hit one or two times on the sharp stone, and Brother Qiang's voice came from the front, and the distance was very close.
The water behind me rushed again, and I followed the water forward, and saw that not far away, Brother Qiang was shining a flashlight at me, "Smart, hold me." ā
I didn't go to hug Brother Qiang, the current rushed me in front of him, I slammed my hands in the water, and finally grabbed a rope, grabbed it tightly in my hands, and shouted at the end of the stone path, "Pull it quickly, or you will wait to be a little widow." ā
When I got to a safe place, I retched, and I felt my mouth stink after a few sips of stinky water just now.
"Old man, this road leads to the main burial chamber?"
"Not exactly, this is the closest to the main burial chamber. ā
When I heard this, my head widened, "Isn't this main burial chamber hidden in a pool of monsters?" The old man shook his head, and I was relieved. If that's the case, it's better for us to go home, and save our lives here.
The old man took out the compass and looked at it a few times, "I said, this is a naturally formed gossip map. The place where we came across the coffin before was the door of death, and the monster here was the door of shock. I analyze that the entrance should be near the Hugh Gate, at least there will be a passage to the main tomb, otherwise this Dragon Tower Treasure Hall will not be able to become a form. ā
