Chapter Seventy-One: Regret Returns

"It's out!"

On the edge of the waterhole, with a low cry from Zhou Chun's mouth, Zhou Jiahe's spirit pet blue-scaled crocodile broke out of the water first, opened his mouth wide and breathed.

Then Zhou Jiahui's spirit pet whirling turtle also appeared on the water with a splash and slowly climbed ashore.

Seeing this, Zhou Jiahe and Zhou Jiahui, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately stepped forward to communicate with the spirit pets and asked them about the results of their underwater reconnaissance.

After a while like this, when the exchange between the two and the spirit pet ended, Zhou Chun looked at the two of them in a hurry and asked, "How is it?" Can you tell us more about that? ”

"It's a bit hard to say."

"According to the crocodile, after going deep into the cave, it did enter an underground channel with a large flow of water, and it did find a lot of strange fish that you said."

"And there are not only that kind of strange fish in the underground river, but also many ordinary fish, shrimp and other demon beasts, among which there are even powerful demon beasts that even the scaly crocodile feels dangerous."

Zhou Jiahe looked at Zhou Chun, and first said the information that his spirit pet had obtained.

Then his eyes looked at Zhou Jiahui.

Seeing this, Zhou Jiahui also opened his mouth and said: "The investigation situation of my whirling turtle is not much different from what Sister He said, and the difference is probably that it said that the water quality in the underground river is very good, which makes it like it very much." ”

After listening to what the two of them said, Zhou Chun couldn't help but bow his head and think about it.

After thinking like this for a while, he looked up at the two of them and said, "The strength of the blue scale crocodile is not weak, and the demon beast that can make it feel dangerous, even if it is not a second-order demon beast, it must be some special kind of powerful first-order high-grade demon beast, so the risk in it is indeed not small." ”

"But whether it's a scaly crocodile or a whirling turtle, it's just a demon beast after all, and the information they have detected is still too vague, the little nephew's suggestion is that the three of us go down and take a look in person, what do the two aunts think?"

Go down and see for yourself?

Hearing Zhou Chun's words, Zhou Jiahe and the others couldn't help but look at each other, and they both hesitated.

Unlike Zhou Chun, because the two of them have lived long enough, they have cultivated the spell of "water avoidance".

But it is precisely because they have lived for a long time and seen a lot that they know better how dangerous this kind of underwater with a large number of water demons is.

At this time, let them go to this kind of place to adventure, how can they not hesitate and worry in their hearts.

"Nephew Zhengchunxian, are you sure you really want to go down and have a look? If we do encounter any danger down there, we will probably be too busy to take care of ourselves, and you will ...... then."

After Zhou Jiahe hesitated for a while, he still looked at Zhou Chun and whispered about his worries.

When Zhou Chun heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Thirteen aunts, don't worry, although the little nephew does not have an underwater spirit pet like you, he also has a way to keep himself safe." ”

"Okay, since you have no problem with yourself and nephew Zhengchunxian, then I have no opinion on my aunt."

Zhou Jiahe nodded and agreed.

Seeing this, Zhou Jiahui on the side didn't want the two of them to think that they were timid, so they immediately responded: "I have no opinion." ”

So after the three of them blessed the "water avoidance technique", they sat on the back of the whirling turtle, and dive to the cave in the depths of the waterhole, and the blue scale crocodile was driven by Zhou Jiahe to open the way in front of them to drive away those strange fish.

When the whirling turtle carried the three of them headlong into the huge cave in the depths of the waterhole, a wonderful underwater world came into the sight of Zhou Chun and the three of them.

I saw that the water in the depths of the cave was not pitch black, and there were many small fish and shrimp that could glow in it.

With the help of the faint light emitted by these small fish and shrimp, Zhou Chun and the others could barely see some of the scenes clearly with their naked eyes.

However, it is still up to the Divine Sense to truly perceive the situation.

Under the detection of the divine sense, all kinds of strange aquatic animals in this underground water world were swept away.

A strange fish like an ordinary small lizard, with no scales on its body, a mouth full of sharp teeth, and a blue glimmer at the end of its tail.

A large prawn with two very long claws, its eyes are as bright as sapphire, and they glow blue.

There is also a strange fish that looks like a yellow eel, with a narrow dorsal fin on its back, and it swims very quickly in the water.

However, these aquatic animals just look strange, not monsters.

The aura emitted by the whirling turtle made them dare not approach, and they all fled far away.

After walking along the cave for nearly half an hour, the whirling turtle carried Zhou Chun and them into the underground river.

Compared to the calm water in the cave, the water in this underground river is much more turbulent.

Behemoths like whirling turtles have to paddle hard to avoid being swept away by the current.

"Shall we go up or down?"

Zhou Jiahe, who drove the blue-scaled crocodile to open the way in front, gestured to Zhou Chun and asked.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun groaned for a while, and then pointed upstream.

Then he left a marker token at the place where the cave and the underground river meet, so as not to forget the route when he returns.

After about two quarters of an hour of going upstream, the crocodile that had opened the way in front met a stingy opponent.

I saw that in the underground river that was more than ten zhang wide, a strange monster beast that looked like a scavenger and was wearing bone armor was fighting fiercely with the blue-scaled crocodile.

Both monsters have a tough fighting style, unleashing spells to attack each other, and opening their mouths to bite each other.

But the crocodile has an owner.

At this time, the whirling turtle carried Zhou Chun and the three of them to the battlefield, and Zhou Jiahe on the back of the turtle immediately waved his hand and sacrificed a golden hairpin magic weapon and shot towards the strange monster.

Zhou Chun and Zhou Jiahui also didn't look at it, and each of them sacrificed magic weapons to besiege the strange monster.

In this way, the three of them joined forces, and the strange monster beast couldn't escape if it wanted to, so it was killed by Zhou Chun's [Moon Blade Meteor Wheel] in the water.

Because the three of them didn't know about this strange monster, Zhou Chun thought that its corpse might have use value, so he cut it into several pieces and put them into the storage bags of the three of them.

Then continue upstream to explore the area.

After going upriver for three quarters of an hour, Zhou Jiahe's expression suddenly moved, as if he had discovered something.

She pointed somewhere, motioning for the turtle to head that way.

In this way, Zhou Chun and Zhou Jiahui soon understood what she had discovered.

I saw another cave intersection similar to the one they had entered.

Seeing this situation, Zhou Chun immediately made a decision to enter the cave to find out.

As a result, not long after they entered the cave, they encountered a large school of that catfish-like strange fish.

More than a dozen strange fish besieged the crocodile in front of them at the same time, preventing it from penetrating into the cave.

This made the three people behind them even more curious, and immediately joined the battlefield to kill and disperse this group of strange fish, and then continued to go deeper into it.

But it didn't take long for the strange fish that had escaped before to quickly kill dozens of their kind, and among them, there were three or four strange fish that exuded the aura of first-order high-grade demon beasts.

"Retreat!"

Zhou Chun did not hesitate and immediately gave the order to retreat.

I saw that the three of them quickly switched to the faster and more agile swimming crocodile, and then let the whirling turtle break off with its huge size, and quickly retreated towards the underground river.

After escaping all the way in such a mess, the three of them finally escaped back to the underground river.

It's just that the poor whirling turtle was beaten and seriously injured, and Zhou Jiahui had to temporarily take it back to the spirit beast bag.

And without the stable mount of the whirling turtle, and the three of them have consumed a lot of mana, they can only regret ending this trip to the underground river at this time.

Goo Boom Goo

Suddenly a large number of bubbles bubbled up in the calm water, and then the crocodile's mouth full of sharp teeth came out first.

On the back of the crocodile, Zhou Chun and the three of them stayed in the dark underground world for an hour, and at this moment they saw the light of day again, and they also opened their mouths wide to breathe in the fresh air.

After taking a few breaths of fresh air like this, Zhou Jiahe looked at Zhou Chun and said, "Nephew Zhengchun, this trip is almost over like this, with the complicated situation in the underground river, if there is no foundation building period monk to accompany us, it is impossible for us to wait for the Qi refining period monk to stay in it for a long time!" ”

This time, the three of them joined forces and were all killed by that group of strange fish, which shows the danger in the underground river.

Moreover, there is no place to meditate and rest within two hundred miles of this vicinity, and they are not even able to use attrition tactics.

Therefore, in Zhou Jiahe's opinion, this matter could not be done without the monks of the foundation building period.

Zhou Chun could use the Purification Stone Jar to solve the problem of meditation and rest, but he didn't have a water battle spirit pet, and his own cultivation was only at the ninth level of Qi refining, so he couldn't go to the underground river to explore alone.

Therefore, although he was still a little unwilling and regretful in his heart, he still rationally agreed with Zhou Jiahe's suggestion and promised to go back to the family first to report the results obtained.

"According to what the Thirteenth Aunt said, let's go back and report to the patriarch first."
