56. Find the second fragment of the Snow Mountain Scroll
Seeing this, Gu Yuexi's face changed greatly, and she immediately grabbed the grappling hook gun and pulled the trigger above the vertical cave.
But her movements were still half a beat slower, so that before she could press the boost button, she was swallowed up by the rather muddy waves.
Coughing lightly, she spat out the bitter sand and salty river water from her mouth, and then held her breath and swam quickly in the direction of the water.
But what she didn't expect was that although she could see the glimmer of the water clearly, and swam desperately to that position with all her might, despite this, her position and its position were not reduced by half a point.
Perhaps there was an elusive undercurrent in the water, and she comforted herself as she took a short break and continued to swim forward as she regained her strength.
However, the distance remained the same, as if the river had an independent consciousness, that is, every meter she swam, it rose one meter; She stopped to rest, and it stood in place waiting for her.
Thinking of this, Gu Yuexi's heart slumped to her throat, right now she has been underwater for almost half a minute, if she still can't reach the surface of the water in the next twenty or thirty seconds, then what awaits her will only be death.
"Hmph......" Looking at the light with hope ten meters away, she was ready to give it a go, facing life and death with a fighting attitude, instead of waiting for death to come in a negative and pessimistic way.
Sure enough, the river played a big joke on her, because this time, she didn't face even the slightest resistance, but easily came to the water.
Taking a big gulp of the scented air, rubbing her slightly hazy eyes, she struggled to her feet and scanned the directions.
In front of her, there was an endless blue sea, and at this moment, the golden sun was hanging above her head, and around the sun, large snow-white clouds slowly drifted by, like the sweet marshmallows sold in the streets and alleys of childhood.
Looking at the magnificent blue ocean in front of her, listening to the sound of the waves crashing on the reef, and touching the warm and warm sun, her consciousness became blurred for a moment, after all, she was still making her last struggle in the dark river water in the last second, why did she come to such a place suitable for being in a daze in the next second?
Isn't that a monstrous wave, like the waters that suddenly appear in the depths of the rainforest, the murky puddles on the edge of a desert oasis, are all doors to an area inside a secret space?
But this assumption is still to be discussed, after all, she is far from the only one who was swept away by the huge waves, there are also Wang Wenyuan, Li Youer, Su Lemo, Cycad and others or exist, but now, they are all gone, only she stands on the lonely black reef in the depths of the sea.
After thinking for a while, Gu Yuexi didn't get the answer she wanted, so she stared at the sea level in a daze, and was a little bored.
But at this moment, above the sea at the end of his vision, a big rat-gray creature suddenly appeared.
At a cursory glance, she found that it was flat and smooth, no different from the fiberboard used for packaging and decoration, but on closer inspection, she could faintly see its streamlined body and broad, flat tail, so it was most likely an adult blue whale.
Sure enough, when it came to the surface of the sea only 50 meters away from her, its flattened head slowly surfaced, and then a cloud of white gas spewed out from the fumarole above its head, forming a column of water up to 10 meters above the sea.
Gu Yuexi was a little overwhelmed for a while, after all, this was the first time she had "communicated" face-to-face with a 30-meter-long, 150-ton "big guy".
The next moment, it wagged its tail slightly, and let out an ethereal and graceful "whine" sound, as if revealing something to her.
"Oh?" Seeing this, Gu Yuexi was slightly stunned, and then came to the edge of the reef with a little curiosity, carefully looking at the "behemoth" in front of her.
However, what puzzled her deeply was that just as her gaze swept over its slightly dull eyes, a strong sense of dizziness appeared in her head for some reason.
Then, her body leaned forward uncontrollably, and was swallowed up by the unfathomable depths of the sea.
In a trance, she caught a glimpse of the sea above her head accelerating backwards, and then she fell into a deep sleep.

When she woke up again, she found herself leaning against a slightly rudimentary room, about 15 square meters, and the furnishings were very simple, except for the old wooden table and chairs, and only an old painting on the wall.
Regrettably, the painting is incomplete, most of it is mutilated, except for a triangular fragment in the lower right corner.
Gu Yuexi then stood up with a little curiosity, did not stop, and walked quickly to the side of the hanging painting.
After careful examination, she came up with the following clues: first, the fragment was more than 3,000 years old; Second, the fragment is quite simple, with nothing but a crooked line of hieroglyphs and a few rough lines; Third, there were dozens of white granular objects on this dark yellow fragment.
"Could it be that this is the second fragment of the Snow Mountain Scroll?" Gu Yuexi whispered, and subconsciously looked around, and after making sure that there was no one nearby or existing, she carefully stood on tiptoe and took down the painting.
However, as soon as her fingertips touched the granular object above the fragment, a small vague and unfamiliar memory appeared in her brain without warning.
Seeing this, she immediately sat down at the wooden table, put her mind in a state of extreme calm, and then meticulously combed and replayed these memories.
Gradually, the scene before her eyes changed drastically, that is, from a slightly cramped room to a beautiful garden, where red roses, purple lavender, pink roses, and yellow moons bloomed as far as the eye could see, together with the surrounding lifelike sculptures, clear water, and white windmills, they formed a beautiful picture.
She tried to stand up and take a step, intending to take in the beautiful scenery, but her idea did not go her way, because once her attention was distracted, the garden in front of her would become illusory, and it seemed that this garden was not an area in a secret space, but a being similar to a "fantasy".
And this illusion is a lot more fragile than the illusion she encountered in the previous two encounters, after all, in the previous illusion, she can basically do anything she wants except for the fact that she can't communicate with the characters in real time.
That being the case, she had to stay where she was, waiting for the story to begin.
Sure enough, ten minutes later, on a wooden plank road at the end of his line of sight, two middle-aged men in a hurry walked in the distance, their figures and appearances were so familiar, as if they had seen them somewhere.
