Chapter 129: Stinky Water
At the gate of the Xinjiang sub-camp, the carriage was quietly parked on the edge of the outer wall, and the soldiers on the side stood still with the reins of the horses in their hands. At the gate of the barracks on the other side, the soldiers' spears were stuck in the middle of the barracks gate, blocking Taidong's way.
Tai Dong paced back and forth restlessly at the door, poking into the sub-camp from time to time. He had been waiting here for nearly half an hour, but he had not been able to convince the soldiers at the door to let him in.
The brazier on the wall burned in the wind and made a crackling sound, and the soldiers next to the carriage muttered a little unhappily: "Isn't it just a sub-camp?
Although the voice was small, Taidong was next to the soldier at this time, and he heard all the words clearly. Tai Dong didn't speak, but first looked at the few immovable frontier guards at the door, and then squinted at his subordinates, thinking that the difference between them made him inexplicably lost and slightly embarrassed.
"Did you see anyone? Even I, the thousand-year-old, were stopped outside. Taidong stopped and stood beside the carriage, as silent as a stake, and muttered in a low voice.
The soldier beside him didn't say a word, maybe because of the fire, maybe because the soldier was really ashamed. At this time, his face was flushed, and he didn't dare to look at Taidong who was standing aside. The hand holding the reins of the horse grew tighter and tighter, and after a long time, the soldier did not know where to get the courage. Suddenly, he raised his head and looked at Taidong and said, "Lord Tai, in fact, we can just break in, this afternoon, aren't they also free to come and go in our city camp? ”
"Hey, you kid has a bit of backbone!" Taedong looked at the soldier for the first time, and a smile appeared on his face. This made the soldier a little unaccustomed, and between his eyes, the soldier suddenly froze, and lowered his head again.
Taidong didn't look at the soldiers around him anymore, but turned around and walked to the door, changed his usual inferior appearance, stood in front of the soldiers of the Frontier Protection Battalion with his head held high, and raised his voice: "I've been waiting outside for half an hour, could it be that you Lord Liu are deliberately avoiding me?" Let me go in and have a look." ”
In the face of Taidong's attitude becoming resolute, the soldiers guarding the gate were a little panicked. Now Liu Zhen is not in the barracks, most of them are swordsmen realm, at most there are only one or two centurions of the pseudo-sword venerable, if Taidong breaks in, it will be helpless.
"Don't embarrass us, Lord Tai, the commander really hasn't come back, you better wait outside, or you can go back first." You can't take half a step into the camp until the commander returns. The soldier's face was gloomy, and there were a few more people behind him, and there was a kind of desperate posture.
Tai Dong snorted coldly and separated the spear in front of him with both hands, and was about to walk inside, when seven or eight soldiers guarding the frontier surrounded him at once.
At this moment, there were leisurely footsteps behind Tai Dong, and after a pause, Liu Zhen's voice suddenly came: "What is Brother Tai going to do?
Liu Zhen stood a few meters behind him, and then looked at the scene in front of him with a smile. The corners of Taidong's eyes twitched slightly, and a smile squeezed out of the corners of his mouth: "It's really time for Lord Liu to come." ”
"If you don't come again, my nest will be demolished by my brother, right?" Liu Zhen's attitude suddenly changed, revealing a smile, and the soldiers took their spears back when they saw this. Liu Zhen walked to the side of Taidong and grinned again: "Brother is here to see Mu Xiao, I'll take you there." ”
Liu Zhen didn't stop but walked in front of Taidong, and looked back at the few guards who were eyeing the frontier
Battalion soldiers, Taydong leaves a look that remembers you. Along the way, Taidong didn't speak, followed Liu Zhen and looked at his back, and didn't know what to think in his heart.
When Liu Zhen pressed the mechanism at the door of the stone cave, the stone door slowly opened, and a foul smell suddenly came from inside. As the two of them walked inside, the sound of gurgling water in the depths of the stone cave was getting closer and closer, and there seemed to be a sullen breath blowing towards the two of them.
"Brother Liu, are you sure you want to lock Mu Xiao here?" At this time, there was no Mu Xiao who walked forward with the fire fold, and the more he went in, the more he had a bad premonition.
Liu Zhen was also a little surprised, Mu Xiao was not here, did he go inside? This stone cave has never gone deep, is there an exit inside? Don't leave at this time, otherwise that Mo Qian will have to trouble himself.
"Brother Tai, why don't we go in, it is estimated that Mu Xiao went inside because he was curious, and we just guarded outside." Liu Zhen looked at Taidong and said.
At this time, Taidong looked back suddenly, Yu Feng almost extinguished the fire in his hand, and when he heard Liu Zhen say this, he was a little unhappy in his heart, and changed his name to Lord Liu again: "Lord Liu, you haven't entered this stone cave since you came here, have you? Do you know that there was a name here called Ghost Gate a long time ago? Do you know why this stone cave is only for death row prisoners?"
"Ghost Gate? Is there a name? I have come here to take over the barracks, and I have not heard anyone say anything, even this stone cave has not been deepened, is there any mystery in it?" Liu Zhen is telling the truth, since he transferred from the main camp to this sub-camp, he has studied other places, but this stone cave, in his eyes, this stone cave is just a prison cell, and Li Ren has a rule that has been handed down, that is, non-death row prisoners cannot be locked up here, and the soldiers in the battalion are not allowed to go deep into the stone cave.
The sub-battalion is only responsible for accommodating new soldiers, and most of the soldiers who stayed behind came later than Liu Zhen, and they didn't know the secrets inside the cave.
"Do you really not know or do you not know? The condemned prisoners who were held here in previous years have all disappeared inexplicably. Taedong obviously didn't believe what Yoo Jin said.
Liu Zhen was a little helpless, at this time, he saw that there were no chisels on the surrounding stone walls, and when he first came in, it was a hole that was manually chiseled, and when he arrived here, it turned out to be a natural stone cave. Could it be that there are still unspeakable secrets in it, and the ban on the barracks has been handed down for decades, and no one has sneaked into it?
The two of them walked forward a few meters, and the sound of flowing water got closer, and when they looked at the ground a few meters in front of them, there was water flowing out. Taidong's footsteps stopped, and when he was suspicious, there was a sound of rushing water from the depths, obviously what he saw now was only the smallest stream of water, and if he listened carefully to the sound from the depths of the stone cave, it was more like waves.
"Let's go!" Tyedong shouted in panic, and the fire was blown out as he turned around.
The darkness around made the two of them start to panic a little, the sound of running water in the darkness was getting closer and closer, and the cold feeling instantly did not pass the instep of the two of them.
"What's going on?" Liu Zhen struggled to blow the fire fold in his hand while fumbling around in the dark.
Boom, boom
A thrust rushed towards the two of them, and the cold and fishy waves of water flooded the two of them at once, and in the darkness the two of them were violently washed by the current of water, and Taedong and Yoo Zhen, who lost control, panicked, and as the water kept moving, the stench made them fall into despair.
When the water gushed out of the hole, the two of them slid several meters away, and the water in the stone cave gushed out, destroying the camp tent a few feet away in an instant. Liu Zhen, who hurriedly got up from the ground, swept to the side and was about to press the mechanism. Tai Dong stepped forward and swept forward, dragged Liu Zhen aside and said angrily: "What do you want to do? Mu Xiao is still inside!"
"Lord Tai, it's too late, look at it, if it goes on like this, the camp will be over. Liu Zhen looked at the barracks, many places were already full of water, and the water in the stone cave seemed to show no signs of decreasing, but was getting bigger and bigger. The soldiers in the battalion were in a panic, holding bedding and other daily necessities to take refuge on high ground, and at this time, only by closing the stone gate could the losses of the barracks be reduced. In the blink of an eye, the flood destroyed more than ten camp tents, and it would be terrible if it continued like this.
Taidong looked at the barracks at this time, and then looked back at the entrance of the cave, but still didn't see Mu Xiao being rushed out, he was so anxious that he still dragged Liu Zhen to death, and didn't let him close the stone door, just because he was afraid that Mu Xiao would be blocked inside.
However, he didn't know that Mu Xiao was preparing to enter the water in a dark corner at this time.
At the end of the stone cave, the two of them leaned against the recess of the stone wall, only against the cold stone behind them. A bead in Qi Nian's hand was emitting a faint fluorescence. Through the fluorescence, it can be seen that there is stinky water two or three meters in front of them, and the stone cave they walked in just now has been completely submerged at this time. Although the two of them were two or three meters above the ground, the stinky water had already flooded their waists at this time.
"Mu Xiao, listen to me, the exit is in this place where the water is sprayed, here is a place of sedimentary sand, if there is no water coming in, we can't get out at all, and we will have to pass through the sedimentary sand along the bubbling place. If a crocodile is near, you just have to cast an enchantment around us, don't hurt them, or we won't have any bones left. ”
Qi Nian's face was extremely solemn, and she could see that she showed a trace of fear at the moment, but there was a resolute look.
"How long can you use this bead?" Mu Xiao asked suspiciously, the bead in Qi Nian's hand is called the True Qi Bead, I heard that it was given to her by her grandfather, and she needs to pour True Qi into it to shine, Mu Xiao was a little worried about whether this bead would still be useful after it was put into the water.
"We can't get out of any more verbosity, we have to drown here. Qi Nian handed the belt to Mu Xiao and said again: "Tie it up, you will get closer to me later, but you can't touch me, you dare to mess around, and I will destroy you when you get out."
Mu Xiao took the purple belt and didn't speak, tying it to his belt. I muttered to myself in my heart: I have never seen such a bundle in the water, if one person suffers, I am afraid that a pair will die.
Although she was beating a drum in her heart, Mu Xiao didn't say anything, she could only listen to her once at this time, since she knew that she could go out here, there must be a way to deal with it.
The two of them took a deep breath, nodded slightly, and dived into the water at the same time. True Qi beads shone colorful underwater, and below the two of them was a huge hole, and at this time, a large amount of stinky water and sand bubbled out. The huge force pushed the two of them up, and Qi Nian's body swam to one side, piercing the hole at once. Mu Xiao, who was tied with a belt, was pulled over all of a sudden, and a sharp pain came from his waist, and he almost opened his mouth to scold. It's just that the stinky water around him makes him extremely reluctant to even ventilate.
When I didn't enter the hole, there was a buzzing sound in my ears, and I was surrounded by dense sand, and I felt ** on my face. At this time, looking at Qi Nian, he saw a trace of blood flowing from her face in a blur, and Mu Xiao suddenly panicked.
