After listening to Sister Hong's question, Shopkeeper Wang smiled, with a mysterious expression on his face, and said lightly: "As for whether there is a dragon in this world, I can't say for sure, after all, I don't have this creation, and I haven't seen a real dragon with my own eyes." But ......"

As soon as I heard this "but", I knew that the treasurer must know something inside.

The surrounding rats also looked intently at the shopkeeper Wang, waiting for him to finish speaking.

"However, Master Gao once told me that I do have dragons in Huaxia!"

As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar!

Sister Hong said without doubt: "Since it is Master Gao's golden mouth, it seems that there is really a dragon in this world!" ”

It can be seen that Master Gao's status in the hearts of this group of native masters is even higher than that of the king's shopkeeper, and what Master Gao said is simply a golden rule for them, and there is no room for suspicion.

When I heard what Shopkeeper Wang said, I couldn't help but be curious, and hurriedly pricked up my ears, wanting to hear what Master Gao had said about the real dragon, so that I could also take advantage of the opportunity to gain a long insight.

But the shopkeeper likes to talk halfway, and as soon as we aroused our appetite, he pointed to the dragon remains coiled on the giant tree in front of us and said: "Since the tomb dragon has appeared, the coffin of the tomb owner must be near it, now is not the time to chat, hurry up and do the work first!" ”

The Tufu people responded and searched for a path to the giant tree.

But after going around the tree, they found that the tree was rooted in the middle of the underground river where the undercurrent was surging, and there was no dry road to the tree, and if they wanted to climb the tree, they had to cross the underground river.

But this underground river is rushing and turbulent, and I don't know how deep the water is, so I easily risk going down the river, but I am afraid that it will be nine deaths!

Just when this group of rats was blind, the eyes of the shopkeeper suddenly fell on me and Uncle Mei, and when I felt his ill-intentioned gaze, I knew that Uncle Mei and I were only afraid of becoming the vanguard officers of the river crossing.

Sure enough, I only heard him laugh aloud twice, and then walked towards me and Uncle Mei, put a big hand on my shoulder, and pretended to be enthusiastic and said:

"I'll just say that Xiaohong invites the two of you to come over, sooner or later it will come in handy, and sure enough, as I expected, now that the brothers are blocked by this underground river, it is a good time for the two of you to show their powers!"

Uncle Mei and I didn't rush to express our position, and laughed twice to respond.

The shopkeeper Wang is well versed in the way of employing people, and knows that if he wants us to work hard, he must give some sweetness, he smiled and said:

"I heard Xiaohong say that the two of you are very water-based, and this underground river must not be able to stop you. But my brothers are mediocre, and they rush down to the river for fear of dying. It is better to be in this way, the two were tired, first tied the hemp rope to swim to the opposite bank, and then tied the hemp rope to the tree, so that the other brothers dragged the hemp rope across the river. If this happens, I'll give you two a great credit! When I go out, not only will I give the two of you more money, but if I encounter this kind of big meat pot again in the future, I will definitely ask the two of you to go down with me, how about it? ”

Sister Hong on the side heard this, and hurriedly grabbed my hand and said, "Rongsheng, this is a rare opportunity!" Why don't you hurry up and behave in front of the pot? If you can really get the appreciation of the pot, it will be no problem to soar in the future! ”

Uncle Mei and I glanced at each other, only to see Uncle Mei nodding slightly.

It's not because of the appreciation of the two of us who are rare and the king's shopkeeper, to tell the truth, Jiang Yongguang and they are estimated to have laid a net outside at this time, and the king's shopkeeper has already crossed the river as a mud bodhisattva, and it is difficult to protect himself, so his appreciation is still useful?

I understand Uncle Mei's thoughts, the reason why he decided to venture across the river was because he wanted to find the whereabouts of the white-clothed fairy girl.

Since Uncle Mei nodded, I didn't have a word.

I turned to look at the shopkeeper Wang, and stretched out my hand heroically: "Pot supporter, bring me two hemp ropes, be strong, otherwise I am afraid that I will not be able to support the torrent of this underground river." ”

When the shopkeeper Wang saw that Uncle Mei and I agreed, he immediately smiled, gave a thumbs up and said, "What a guts!" Xiaohong really has some eyes when she looks at men, and the two of you didn't disappoint me! ”

Let's just pick out two hemp ropes for our grandfather, tie one end to the bank, and the other end to our waist, and wait until Uncle Mei and I successfully cross the river, and then tie the end of the waist to the ancient tree, which forms a simple rope bridge across the underground river.

Before going down the river, I stretched out my feet to test the speed of the water, and after a rough calculation in my mind, I took Uncle Mei upstream.

Because once we enter the river, we will definitely not swim straight in the direction of the ancient tree, and the turbulent underground river will definitely rush us downstream.

After calculating this amount in advance, Uncle Mei and I prepared to go into the water.

Before going into the water, Sister Hong came over and hugged me worriedly, and whispered: "Rong Sheng, but don't pay attention to safety, if you really can't do it, just return first, don't lose your life because of a good face!" ”

I nodded and said, "Got it." ”

With that, he jumped into the underground river first.

I thought that the water of this underground river should be cold, after all, there is no sunlight here, but after jumping in, I found that the water temperature is not very cold, but even warmer than the water of the duck river.

"It's weird, isn't there a hot spring nearby?" I couldn't help but muttered curiously.

Immediately afterwards, Uncle Mei also followed me down the river, and after he went down the river, he also subconsciously said: "Oh, this river is not frozen at all, it is very comfortable!" ”

I nodded, and took the lead to swim to the ancient trees on the opposite bank, and tried to explore the depth of the water while swimming, but I didn't expect that the underground river was bottomless, I probed several times, and once the whole person dived, but I couldn't see the bottom.

After swimming up again, I shook my head and said to Uncle Mei, "This river is very deep, I'm afraid it can drown people." ”

Uncle Mei hurriedly urged: "Then hurry up and go to the other side, don't waste your strength!" ”

However, as we spoke, I suddenly heard a "crackling" sound in the water, which was not the sound of an underground river, but the sound of a group of small fish swimming towards us.

I've heard this sound vaguely before, in the thief hole when I came in!

Piranha!

It's a piranha coming!

I looked in the direction from which the voice came from, and I was terrified!

Sure enough!

I saw that the underground river was full of those piranhas with big palms, dark red, sharp teeth! Because Uncle Mei and I were all covered with paint, and as soon as we entered the water, we smelled blood, and they were like flies that smelled carrion, and they quickly attacked us.

"! Uncle Mei run, there are piranhas! I shouted, and hurriedly took Uncle Mei to swim!

By this time, we were already halfway through the swim, so we didn't turn around and go back, but simply threw off our arms and swam to the other side, so that we could get ashore faster and get out of danger!

But the piranha swam too fast, and it didn't take long to catch up with me and Uncle Mei!
