Chapter 15: Water Trick
Lu Qingyun didn't answer, but turned around the entrance of the cave, then stopped on the right side of the hole, looked down at the ground, there were a few unclear footprints printed on the somewhat wet ground, and if you didn't look closely, you would really be ignored.
"Looks like someone has arrived first, the footprints were left not long ago, let's go inside."
After speaking, he walked in without looking back, Yue Hongyan and Wang Zhiyong glanced at each other and quickly followed. The cave is wide on both sides, and the walls of the cave cannot be reached by standing in the middle of the road with open arms. After walking inward for some distance, a fork in the road appeared in front of you.
"Which of these two entrances are we going to enter?"
Wang Zhiyong scratched his head and asked, Lu Qingyun stopped and looked at the fork in the road in front of him, looked at the left and right entrances respectively, and then stopped at the left entrance, looked at the wall and smiled slightly.
"It doesn't seem like we need to make any effort, go to the left, we have to speed up."
Yue Hongyan was a little puzzled, came to Lu Qingyun's side and took a closer look at the wall, only to see that someone had carved a mark on the edge of the hole on the left, combined with Lu Qingyun's words before, it seemed that some people had already explored the way for the three of them, which saved a lot of trouble.
Relying on the light from the flashlight, the three of them walked while looking at the wall to see if there were any other markers, the more they walked in, the more they walked the cave was gradually narrowing, after turning a few corners, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared in front of them, and then a large karst cave came into view, and the road to the inside was blocked by a pool of water in the middle, and torches were inserted on the walls on both sides. Lu Qingyun pointed to the front.
"It doesn't look like the pool is very deep, you look at the other side."
Looking at the direction of Lu Qingyun's finger, the two also understood what Lu Qingyun meant, and there were also torches on the opposite side of the pool, which meant that someone had arrived on the other side.
"You stay on the shore, I'll swim over to see what the situation is, and then you can go when it's safe."
Saying that, Lu Qingyun took all the things on his body in his hands, raised it above his head and swam towards the opposite bank, in fact, it was better to swim over, but it was better to say that it was appropriate to walk over, because Lu Qingyun went all the way down, and the deepest place was only to his waist, and the pool was not wide, it was less than twenty or thirty meters, and when Lu Qingyun went up to the opposite bank, he shouted to the two.
"No problem, follow the route I just took."
Although Yue Hongyan had an inexplicable fear of the water itself, he had to send it when the arrow was on the string, so he had to go into the water hard, Wang Zhiyong followed not far behind him, and Yue Hongyan was trembling all the way down.
Seeing that he was only less than ten meters away from the opposite shore, and the water surface was slowly lowering to his waist, Yue Hongyan struggled to swim towards the shore...... Well, I should say I was walking, but at this moment an accident happened.
As he walked, he suddenly felt something grab his big feet, and fell into the water in a panic, and in an instant a mouthful of water poured into his mouth, Yue Hongyan struggled desperately in the water, and the thing he was dragging below was very powerful, and he dragged Yue Hongyan deep to the left.
"Not good!"
Lu Qingyun's heart tightened, and he hurriedly took out the rune paper from his pocket, pinched the rune paper in his hand and emitted a firelight in his hand, raised the rune paper in his hand, suspended in the air, and rushed directly in the direction of Yue Hongyan after a slight pause, when the rune paper touched the water, Yue Hongyan suddenly felt that his feet were loose, and at this time, Wang Zhiyong also came to Yue Hongyan's side, and reached out to pull Yue Hongyan up from the water.
"Are you alright?"
Yue Hongyan choked on the water and retched, and the pain in his stomach made him feel quite uncomfortable.
"Ahem, ahem...... What do you say, Lao Tzu almost died, but fortunately it is not deep, it seems that he must learn to swim when he goes back. ”
"Come on, it's not safe in the water!"
I only heard Lu Qingyun shouting on the shore, and at this moment, there were bursts of ghost screams in the surrounding water, and ripples appeared on the water surface approaching the two, and Lu Qingyun's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Look for death!"
As he spoke, he took out another piece of rune paper, pinched the recipe in his hand, and recited the spell in his mouth, it was still a similar scene, and the rune paper burst into flames, but this time it did not rush directly into the water, but stopped above the heads of the two people.
After a while, it exploded in the air, and the flames from the explosion were not directly extinguished, but all turned into independent small flames, flying around at the moment of explosion, and every time it hit the water surface, there would be a scream in the water, and when the last scream passed, the water surface returned to calm.
Lu Qingyun took out the compass, and after reciting a few incantations, he saw a few mist floating out of the water and flying into the compass. The two of them didn't say a word and swam quickly to the shore, and Yue Hongyan even used the ancestral dog planer.
After going ashore, the two of them sat on the ground and gasped for breath, Yue Hongyan was a landlubber, he had never been in the water, he didn't expect to almost lose his life when he went into the water for the first time, and he thought that he must sign up for a swimming training class after he went back.
When the faces of the two eased, Lu Qingyun said.
"Let's go, there's not much time left for us."
After finishing speaking, he ignored the two and walked forward, Yue Hongyan heard this, and hurriedly got up from the ground and pulled Wang Zhiyong to run towards Lu Qingyun.
"Master Lu, wait for me, what was that just now? That's a lot of strength. ”
Lu Qingyun said without replying.
"What do you say is in the water? They are all flooded ghosts, that is, people often call water ghosts, this kind of dead Tan is different from living water, even if the unjust souls in it harm you, they can't be reincarnated, but out of instinct, when they see the living, they will be jealous and want to pull you down to be their companions. ”
Yue Hongyan couldn't help but be a little scared after hearing this, on the other hand, Wang Zhiyong was in a good state, and said with a big grin.
"Fortunately, Lao Tzu's life is hard, I found someone on the side of the road to calculate, saying that I can live past the age of ninety, and there will be countless wives and concubines in my life."
Yue Hongyan pursed his lips.
"Stop, I'm embarrassed to make up your hexagram if you don't have a few thousand yuan of hexagrams, and when you are ninety years old, the grass on your grave is one meter high, and I believe that there are groups of wives and concubines, but the prison will also send you a prison package, a big silver chain, a silver bracelet or something."
"You're just jealous, you're a typical example of not being able to eat grapes, not saying that grapes are not easy to peel."
"That's called not being able to eat grapes, saying that grapes are sour."
"Hey! You said it yourself. ”
Both of them eased up from this interruption and stopped mentioning what had just happened.
As they spoke, the three of them walked through the tunnel and came to a cave that was more than twice as large as the outside, and the empty space seemed to echo even the heartbeat.
Faintly, there was a fragrance wafting over, the center of the cave was a very high pillar, this aroma seemed to be coming from the pillar, and you could see a cave entrance on the wall behind the pillar, but vaguely it seemed to be three cave entrances.
His mind was in a trance, that is, in an instant, Yue Hongyan's eyes glanced at the right front, and suddenly seemed to see a figure flashing, and he hurriedly turned his head to look at Lu Qingyun.
"Master Lu, there seems to be someone on the right."
