Chapter 44, the white tiger in the pool

After speaking, Cui Hao's voice slowly sank.

Gradually, his steps became extremely heavy.

I realized something, but I didn't look back.

Cui Hao followed behind me silently, and walked for nearly four or five minutes, and he finally couldn't help but shout.

"Little Manye, don't you know that it hurts?"

I glanced back, and in an instant I saw the blade stuck in my back.

A piercing pain came, and I couldn't help but cry out.

I immediately pulled out the dagger, quickly grabbed a bandage from my backpack and bandaged it on my back.

Cui Hao was completely stunned at this time.

He stared at my back incredulously and helped me with the bandage.

"Little Manye, why haven't I figured it out, what's going on now? Why didn't you make a sound when I stabbed you just now? ”

After speaking, Cui Hao stared at the dagger in fear.

"When I told you to be careful, I just stabbed you in the back. But at that time, you didn't react at all, and I felt that something was wrong. Later, I followed you for another three or four minutes, but you didn't even cry out in pain, and your face was still so calm, as if you didn't feel it at all. ”

At this time, Cui Hao couldn't help but lower his head and looked at the wound on his arm that was pierced by me.

He muttered to me in disbelief.

"In other words, I was in the same state just now, right? That's why I didn't even notice that you had stuck something on me. In other words, this knife did not suddenly grow on me, but your hand on me? ”

I nodded, confirming his speculation.

"Fatty, you've finally reacted."

I walked up to Cui Hao's side and stretched out my finger and pointed to the knife on his arm.

"I didn't feel right just now, because I felt cold all the time after we went underground. But all of a sudden, as soon as you say it's hot, my feelings change. The heat is rising, and I don't think it's hot here. ”

As I spoke, I took out the dagger and played with it in my hand.

"I thought about it when I was on the ground, and I felt shiver when you said it was cold. So I feel like it's going to change as our consciousness changes. ”

I looked back and saw Cui Hao with a little coldness in my eyes.

"I don't know if you can understand what I mean, it's not so much that we're stuck in a ghost wall, but that the two of us seem to be indulging in a kind of hallucination. This illusion can only be realized if we see it in person. If something happens unintentionally, even if a knife is stuck in our body, the two of us will not be aware of it. ”

Cui Hao looked at the blade in my hand, and finally nodded and believed my words.

He stared at his hands in disbelief.

"So what's going on with the two of us now?"

I looked around, already having a guess in my mind.

"I think that the two of us are probably in a state of soul separation now, and there is a high probability that the soul is not in our body, so we will become what we are now."

As I spoke, I glanced back and looked back at the other side of the chain bridge.

"So, maybe we didn't come up from below at all, I'm still in the dim space underground, we need to get back as soon as possible."

Now we are in a state of soul detachment, and it is likely that something in this underground area has forced the souls of the two of us out.

However, this thing is extremely strange and doesn't give the two of us any time to react, and we don't even realize that our souls are out of our bodies.

The two of us crawled out from below in a trance, thinking that we could leave this place, but we didn't expect to be trapped in this place.

Cui Hao looked at me in disbelief.

"Shall we go back then?"

I nodded, grabbed the cold iron cable, and climbed back up.

"Of course, we have to climb back again, the two of us seem to be out, but our bodies are still inside, we have to go back the way we came, and find everything along the way."

I'm worried that something has happened to our bodies inside, so we have to go back as soon as possible to prevent it from getting worse.

Cui Hao nodded, chased after me and climbed back again.

The two of us searched all the way and returned to the hot spring once again.

As expected.

I could clearly see the bodies of the two of us floating above the surface of the hot spring pool.

It was as if our bodies had been dragged to the surface of the water by something, and we were constantly swaying up and down with the waves.

"Our bodies are actually here."

Cui Hao stared at the water in disbelief, and quickly got up and planned to rush up his body.

However, at the moment of his impact, his body was jerked back again, and he fell to my feet with a thud.

"Don't go, there's something wrong with this place."

The two of us killed all the weird spider-infested shells here.

However, since we have been here for so long, we may still be inhaled by the smell that spreads in the air here.

Brought the two of us down here.

And it can unconsciously force our souls out, so that we can crawl out without noticing.

There is something wrong with the things here, maybe there is some kind of formation set up by someone.

I immediately turned my head and quickly looked around carefully.

Soon, my eyes fell on the middle of the pool.

I vaguely saw a layer of gray-white light rising up there, and vaguely something seemed to be shaking underneath.

I stretched out my finger and pointed to the gray mass and shouted to Cui Hao beside me.

"That's where the problem should be."

He glanced back in the direction of my finger and immediately realized what the problem was.

"Cui Hao, I'll find a way to see what's under this pool, you look at the bodies of the two of us, if anything strange happens, prepare for the impact as soon as possible, and see if you can return to the body."

There is clearly something wrong under the bottom of the pool.

The two of us can't act together to avoid all being planted in it.

I can only ask Cui Hao to wait for me on the ground for a while, and I will rush over to see the situation myself.

Cui Hao nodded at me, and after telling me a few times to pay attention to safety, he walked not far from our bodies, always alerting to the movements around us.

I took a deep breath, walked over to the pool, and held my breath and plunged headlong.

Instantly, a mass of warmth enveloped my body.

I could feel the heat rushing up my soul, if it weren't for the cold and gloomy surroundings.

I decided to find a chance to take a bath here, and it was so comfortable that it even went straight into my soul.

I opened my eyes and looked closely at where I had just seen the light.

Vaguely, I seemed to see a shadow swimming underneath the ground.

The shadow was about three meters tall and seven or eight meters wide, and it was huge, constantly moving underground with the waves of the water.

Since there is still some distance between us, it is not clear what this thing is.

But I could see in the faint light around me that it seemed to have white-gray hairs on its body, constantly drifting with the waves.

"What the hell is it?"

I suppressed the fear in my heart, clenched the dagger in my hand, and swam towards the thing.

This time, I wasn't bounced back like Cui Hao just now.

As it approached the shadow, it was clearly visible.

Suddenly there was a roar in front of me, and it was clearly the same tiger roar we had heard on the shore earlier.

I finally saw it clearly.

The gray-white thing in front of me was clearly a big tiger with black and white markings.

"White Tiger?"

In an instant, the word came to my mind.

I suddenly remembered the green dragon, the green dragon and the white tiger, and the Xuanwu Vermilion Bird that I saw inside the wounded gate before.

Suddenly, a thought crossed my mind, but before I could think about it, the white tiger had already spotted me.

He jerked his head back, roared at the sky, paddled wildly with his hooves, opened his bloody jaw, and threw himself down at me.

I realized something was wrong and immediately turned around and swam back.

At this time, I vaguely saw that in the middle of the lake, there seemed to be a ball of light floating there.

This thing emits a faint glow under the water, clearly illuminating a space.

And I could clearly see that a cloud of gray-white smoke spread from the tiger's tail, which clearly submerged into the ball of light.

"This white tiger seems to be one with this ball of light."

As soon as I realized this, I knew that if I wanted to deal with the White Tiger, I had to figure out what this ball of light was.

Maybe by smashing this ball of light, we will be able to break free from the illusion we just had and return to the two of us.

Thinking of this, I immediately turned around and quickly turned to look at the white tiger rushing towards me.

Originally, the white tiger chased after me, watching me run away like a prey.

Now I suddenly turned around and pounced on the white tiger head-on.

He was obviously stunned by me, and he couldn't help but move a little slower.

And I also took the opportunity to pounce in front of the white tiger, quickly shook off the Shang Fang sword in my hand, and slashed at the white tiger's body.

There was a bang.

Shang Fang's sword broke through the water, and as the mist rose, Shang Fang's sword split the hot spring water, forming a layer of moat underground.

Immediately after the surrounding water layer retreated, Shang Fang's sword was also pinched in my hand, and he slashed directly at the white tiger.
