Chapter 133: A Raccoon Dog
I really want to thank Li Zhuang for remembering and comforting me in such a dangerous situation.
It's just that this comfort doesn't make me feel comfortable, but makes me even more helpless.
I sighed and silently raised Shang Fang's sword, preparing to open the way ahead.
In any case, Cui Hao must be rescued first.
The two of us picked up speed and quickly rushed forward.
Every time I walked through these blades of grass, I could feel as if something was caressing my body with ease.
And something under the water seemed to be staring at me closely, as if it was thinking about when to do something to me.
But fortunately, those eyes disappeared quickly after a few minutes of falling on me, and it seemed that they should have taken into account the mark of the so-called king, and they didn't dare to do anything to me at all.
Of course, Li Zhuang, who stayed behind me, was also contaminated with my scent, so he always followed me safely.
"Li Zhuang, where should we go to find it?"
I'm almost confused.
I don't know where I should search next, so that I can find Cui Hao from below.
Li Zhuang pointed to the space in front of him and nodded lightly to me.
"Just go this way, if you look at the marks on the ground, you should know where we're going."
I was stunned and immediately looked to the ground.
Only then did I realize that some of the aquatic plants on the ground seemed to have been crushed in the places we passed.
It was as if something had been dragged through the place.
I reacted quickly.
"You mean, Cui Hao is likely to be dragged to the front by those aquatic plants, so there will be such traces on the ground."
Li Zhuang nodded lightly, but there was still a bit of helplessness and uncertainty in his eyes.
"Of course it could be something else, like the guy who was dragged down with me."
When I talked about this person, I couldn't help but gasp.
"Li Zhuang, what's going on with that figure? It stands to reason that only a few of us should have these protective clothing, how can there be a bruised figure wearing protective clothing? ”
I can't figure it out, could it be that the protective clothing on Cui Hao's body was snatched away by this guy?
But I didn't expect Li Zhuang to give me a completely different guess.
"I think that this protective suit is probably not the same as us, maybe it is the clothes worn by Zhao Yueming's subordinates who came down to investigate the situation before, and this person probably did not return to the shore, they died underground."
As he spoke, Li Zhuang couldn't help but look in the direction we came.
"This Zhao Yueming seems to be very friendly to us, but in fact, he looks at us with a bit of calculation in his eyes, maybe you haven't noticed, but I know that this guy's purpose is not simple."
After speaking, Li Zhuang gently patted me on the shoulder.
"You kid ten people are still a little bit of ability, look at some more people, maybe you can know what their nature is. This Zhao Yue's demeanor at that time was very wrong, especially when he saw these aquatic plants, as if he knew a lot about these things. Do you really think that Zhuge chalcedony knew the true nature of these aquatic plants by accident? ”
As soon as Li Zhuang said this, I reacted.
That is, they had been in the water before, and most likely more than once.
Even when they went into the water, they lost some members of their own side.
It's just that Zhao Yueming didn't tell us these real situations, I don't know what his purpose was, because he was afraid that he would not want to come down after we knew the danger, or because of some other reasons.
But at least he hid some of the truth from us, which led to the misunderstanding I just had.
"You mean to say that this is their early group of team members, and it is only because they were trapped and died by these aquatic plants that it became the current scene."
Li Zhuang nodded lightly.
"That's what I mean, but at the same time. Did you notice that their protective clothing was a little different from ours? First of all, the strange red dot that appeared was probably the original mark of the protective clothing on these people. As for the green dots this time, they are also used to distinguish them from the red logo. At the same time, this protective suit is a little different from us. ”
Li Zhuang raised his arm and pointed to the very end of his arm.
"I was just getting closer to the thing, so I could see a sign on the side of his suit with a round black background, but it wasn't on our clothes. I can be sure that after we came down, everyone was wearing clothes of the same size and scale, and there was no such so-called logo at all, so I had such speculations and speculations. ”
I nodded, so if I said that, Li Zhuang's statement was probably true.
That means that we should be cheated by Zhao Yueming instead.
This guy just took a fancy to our abilities, and he already knew about the stone door underground, and the purpose was to let me come here to pick the lock.
It's just a pity that we lost Cui Hao halfway.
And they also knew that Cui Hao should have been taken away by these aquatic plants, so the two of them were not willing to approach these aquatic plants at all.
In particular, it is preventing us from getting closer.
It's just that I'm too stubborn, and because I have Shang Fang's sword on my body, these aquatic plants even retreat, and they don't dare to attack me.
So they can't continue to stop me and let me come down and find someone.
After figuring out the cause and effect, I was relieved.
Now that we know their true colors, we will have a better way to deal with them in the future.
I immediately turned around and thanked Li Zhuang.
"Li Zhuang, thank you for your advice."
Li Zhuang turned his head and didn't look at me.
"No, it's just what I'm doing to keep you safe, and I'm just here to give the king an account. I'm not your friend, and you don't have to behave too intimately with me, I won't appreciate it. ”
It's just that when this guy speaks, his ears are slightly red.
It is obvious that Li Zhuang is lying.
Obviously, he is also getting along with me, and should consider me as one of his friends.
As for the so-called must protect my safety, it is for the sake of the king above their heads, it is just a rhetoric he came up with.
After all, one day in the future, the two of us will inevitably turn against each other.
After all, our positions are completely different, and he will definitely be in opposition to me in the future, because they are loyal to their king in their bones.
It's the best decision to get rid of the relationship with me now.
I sighed softly.
If it weren't for the fact that the two of us were in different positions, I really wanted to be good friends with him.
Li Zhuang has such a frank impression that he is willing to stick a knife in both sides for his brother.
Actually, I really want to continue to associate with him, but it's a pity that the two of us have different positions, and we must each fight for our own beliefs and fate.
I didn't think much about it, but quickly threw the thoughts out of my head.
No matter what the attitude of the two of us is at that time, at least the two of us are still friends now.
I glanced at Li Zhuang, and then pointed ahead.
"Then let's continue to go and find Cui Hao as soon as possible, that's the point."
Li Zhuang nodded, quickly followed behind me, and followed the traces of the blades of grass pressing him forward.
The two of us were not slow, and after passing through these blades of grass, we soon came to the depths.
But the moment we came here, I couldn't help but stop in shock.
I had no idea that I would see such a terrifying and terrifying scene here.
Directly in front of me, there were countless aquatic plants floating densely.
It's just that these aquatic plants are slightly different from the ones outside, they are still relatively slender, as if they have not grown.
It's just that underneath these blades of grass each fell a man.
And all the blades of these aquatic plants grow from the top of these people's heads, and slowly grow upwards in the direction of the current.
The people with aquatic plants looked calm, and all of them closed their eyes, as if they were asleep.
It's just that their faces have been suffocated and bruised, and at a glance they know that several of them have been drowned in the water, or have lost their oxygen for too long and have been suffocated to death.
There are also dozens of people wearing protective suits, and their protective suits are completely different in size, with slight differences in color and labeling.
I also quickly saw the guy I had sneaked up on us earlier in the water.
This guy's shoulders are close to the armpits, and there really is a sign with a round black background, which is completely different from the protective clothing on our bodies.
The moment I approached them, I turned on my positioning device.
Immediately, there were dense dots of various colors on my mask.
There are blue and yellow colors.
I simply counted that there were about six colors, and there were nearly ten people in each of the other colors, except for the green that we have now.
This means that before we come.
There are probably five other teams that have been in the water before, but unfortunately, most of these five teams have folded on the bodies of these aquatic plants.
And there is no chance to get out at all.
I really didn't expect that Zhao Yueming would hide such important information from us and not tell us the true situation.
I couldn't stop sighing in my heart.
I originally thought that Zhao Yueming was different from his younger brother, he should be a good person, at least on the bright side, he should be more frank than his younger brother.
It's just that I didn't expect that Zhao Yueming was a raccoon dog at all, and he was also calculating a few of us.
