The old man in gray robe turned to look at the disciples behind him, pondered for a moment, and said, "Do as I say. Go get a strong rope and hand it to me."
Immediately, a black-robed disciple took out a thick and strong nylon rope from his backpack.
The old man in gray robe grabbed the rope tightly and turned to look at the disciple next to him: "You grab the other end of the rope and don't let go. After I get to that end and grab the rope, the rest of you will slowly grab the rope." In the past, the last person tied the rope to the zombies. These zombies... don't need to be carried over."
After the old man in gray robe said that, he jumped directly into the water.
The turbulent underground river violently impacted his lower body, but the old man in gray robe supported his body with a cane and remained motionless, walking towards the other side of the underground river in the water.
The disciples on the side widened their eyes.
They knew about the underground river here and had been there before, so they knew how powerful the river water was. However, I never thought that I could still go forward.
The old man in gray robe slowly dived into the water, without deliberately taking deep breaths or holding his breath. He looked extraordinarily calm, taking one step at a time, even in the water, and walking calmly.
The old man in gray robe quickly walked out of the water. He took out the flashlight and looked up, and his heart suddenly sank.
He decisively tugged on the rope on his hand, because it had been agreed in advance, and the disciples who were still on the other side quickly understood what he meant. This was a signal to reach the other side, and asked them to hurry over.
These disciples quickly grabbed the nylon rope in their hands, fearful in their hearts, and quickly walked towards the other end of the rope.
Fortunately, the old man's grip on the rope was still stable and he didn't let go. These people reached the other side one by one without even a single casualty.
The old man threw the rope away at this time, and then began to trot quickly towards the depths of the cave.
And here we are...
Because the mechanism of the stone gate was too strong, or it might have been blocked for too long, in the end, Chen Yulin alone could not make the stone mechanism move any more.
I had no choice but to ask the two disciples of the Honglian Dharma Sect to exert their strength, and then the mechanism made a "click-click" sound and began to move slightly.
"Hurry up, everyone, work hard!" At this time, the fortune teller suddenly looked panicked, urging the two disciples of the Red Lotus Dharma Sect, and even started to press the mechanism with his own hands.
Looking at his anxious look, none of us quite understood.
But I saw him keep muttering: "The tiger is chasing after me again, and things may change."
We all seemed to understand what he meant, and we were all worried that the Dongyang thieves were going to catch up and stop us, so we all used our strength to press down three mechanisms in succession.
But...the undesirable thing still happened.
I glanced at it and suddenly saw a burst of flickering light coming straight from the tunnel in the distance.
Immediately, I broke out in cold sweat.
"Master, there is someone behind here."
Everyone turned their heads together, shocked and frightened after seeing this scene.
"There's still one left to go. Quick, just press the mechanism here!" Chen Yulin shouted anxiously.
After untying it, all of us put our hands on the circular mechanism.
I even used the Golden Body Technique. For a moment, heat surged through my meridians, and my whole body was filled with endless energy.
The stone also sank quickly with the efforts of all of us, until it sank to the lowest point, and then there was a "click-click" sound from behind the entire wall.
Then, the door at the end of the steps in front of us opened quickly.
Chen Yulin's eyes widened: "Quick, let's go, this is your chance to escape!"
At the same time, the large well in front of us and the stone slab embedded in it quickly fell apart, and then a white water column spewed out directly, rushing directly to our heads!
Xuanwu Cave!
This is a self-destruction device built in the Chen Family Cave hundreds of years ago.
As we walked up, the terrain got higher and higher. This cave entrance was also the highest place in the entire underground cave. When the mechanism was opened, the iron cables in the depths connected with each other, driving the mechanism to close all the few drains in the basement, without any leakage. The whole cave in the ancestral land was filled with water and he vowed not to stop.
The white water column rose into the sky, hit the ceiling and then fell quickly. The water seemed to be carrying a huge force, and it hurt even when it hit my body, as if I was under a waterfall.
"Hurry up!" Liu Ruxiang grabbed my wrist and led me quickly towards the door of the cave.
I followed Liu Ruxiang's footsteps and ran away. Everyone reached the door of the cave and immediately felt the cool breeze, but we still can't get out!
Because when the exit door in front of us opens, it is actually a cave, but no one has been here for hundreds of years. It is already occupied by a lot of vines and shrubs. We still need to split these things. Get out.
Chen Guangge took the lead and took out his long knife and practiced chopping.
Liu Ruxiang pulled out the hatchet, pointed it at a thorn tree that was as tall as a person, and started to chop down the old roots.
"Quick! Cut quickly!"
Fortunately, the terrain of Xuanwu Cave is high, and the water has to fill the entire ancestral land first, so the time left for us is quite sufficient.
However, an inappropriate shout suddenly appeared behind him.
"idiot!"
When we heard this sound, we knew that it was the bandits from the corpse extermination line of the Oriental Kingdom. We immediately turned around and saw an old man with pale hair and a set of gray Oriental clothes trotting towards us on crutches. .
Behind that man were four young men in black robes, all of whom were wearing masks and whose faces could not be seen clearly.
The person who shouted just now was a man in black robe wearing a mask.
When everyone saw this thief from the Eastern Kingdom, their minds immediately became excited and they gnashed their teeth and cursed.
"Dog thieves, how come these dog thieves are catching up!"
The fourth uncle chopped down repeatedly and cut down a large bush. The woods outside could already be seen.
A disciple of the Red Lotus Dharma Cult shouted indignantly: "We can't let these people out, these Japanese thieves will all die!"
Everyone agreed, and then ran away with the weapons in their hands.
Liu Ruxiang immediately pinched out a few steel needles and threw them at the Japanese thieves.
A few flashes of silver light flashed, and just when I thought the master was about to reach out, I saw the old man in gray robe suddenly stretched out his hand and actually grabbed the hidden steel stick weapon thrown by Liu Ruxiang from the air.
I remember very clearly that Liu Ruxiang's move was extremely powerful and extremely fast. If an ordinary person was hit, it could penetrate more than an inch into the flesh.
But the old man grabbed it with his hands, and when he let go, the steel stick had been bent.
I was stunned and felt bad.
At this time, the Xuanwu Cave continued to gush, and a cave entrance that had not been opened for hundreds of years suddenly came into view. The water from the underground river suddenly spewed out, rapidly gushing towards the entire cave ancestral land.
These strong currents also had an impact on the Japanese dog thieves. They rushed under their feet and their walking speed was greatly slowed down.
The eyes of the gray-robed old man were like a falcon patrolling the mountains, exuding a sinister aura!
Hearing only a burst of confusing Japanese language, one hand was leaning on a cane, and the other hand suddenly pulled out a bayonet behind him.
At this time, the old man spoke in this awkward Mandarin: "Any of you who dare to block the grand cause of my Zishan family will die!"
He sneered and waved his bayonet at us.
"A hundred years ago, all the heroes of our country from the East came out and swept across your Central Plains. My father fought in the Lingnan area."
"You have a magical man named Qin Jiuye. He is hiding in the mountains and has attacked our Japanese army many times."
"You know, my father later caught him, exposed him in the sun, made him very hot, and then immersed him in ice-cold water. Then he poured hot oil on his body."
"He didn't even bite and chewed his teeth alive. My father was very angry and stabbed his stomach with the sword passed down by my family, and then cut off his hands and feet section by section. My father watched him struggling in the quagmire, hahahaha..."
The old man's laughter became more and more abnormal, and a ferocious look appeared on his old face.
Looking at this appearance, I immediately gritted my teeth.
"These beasts are worse than pigs and dogs!" I cursed in my heart, clenching my fists so tightly that my nails were about to scratch my palms.
"Do you know who he is?" At this time, the old man in gray robe suddenly grabbed a man in black robe next to him.
The old man asked the man in black robe next to him to take off the mask on his face.
The man in black robe did as he was told.
"Hahaha, have you seen it? Look what he looks like, he is the grandson named Qin Jiuye!" The old man in gray robe smiled ferociously, while gently kicking the old man in gray robe beside him. , pointing his bayonet at us.
I stared at the man in black robe with my eyes widened.
His face is that of a living Lingnan man. I am very familiar with this look. It is definitely not the look of an Oriental man who needs to travel across the ocean to reach it.
"You!" The fourth uncle gritted his teeth, and his iron-like fists clenched loudly.
There is no one in our group who is not angry.
"Beast, beast!" Chen Guangge couldn't help but curse.
At this time, I heard the traitorous grandson of Master Qin Jiu say: "My grandfather made a mistake a hundred years ago and dared to resist the great and glorious Eastern Kingdom. I will take the responsibility for his crimes..."
But before he finished speaking, Liu Ruxiang beside me couldn't bear it anymore, grabbed a handful of silver steel picks and threw them out.
