When I got close to the water hole, I found that the hole was surrounded by dense water plants. The water plants had existed before, but they were too dense, so I didn't find that there was a water hole hidden in it.
I was staring at the dark water hole in a daze, when I saw Erbao raising his hand and patting my shoulder, gesturing for me to follow him, and then he dived into the dark water hole.
At this moment, I realized that everyone else did not return to the shore, but all got into this water hole.
I didn't follow him directly, but wanted to take a look at the remaining oxygen tank to make sure that there was still more than half of it. Then I took a deep breath and got into the water hole.
Erbao was waiting for me, so I quickly caught up with him and swam forward behind him.
At first, the surrounding area was still very narrow, but as we went forward, the water hole became wider and wider. Finally, Erbao and I didn't feel crowded as we walked side by side.
On the way again, I saw no less than three floating corpses. There were no obvious injuries on their bodies, which negated the possibility that they were attacked by water monkeys. When I looked at their oxygen levels, I understood that they were He was suffocated to death here because he ran out of oxygen.
After swimming forward for several dozen meters, the surrounding space became wider and larger, and the water became clearer.
Erbao raised his finger and pointed upward, and then swam straight up. I hurriedly followed him because I already felt that the water surface was just a few meters above my head.
Phew…puff…! Erbao and I emerged from the water one after another, and we couldn't wait to climb ashore. When we got on the shore, we found that there was a standardized corridor in front of us, with bluestone as bricks and white glue as joints. This looked like the tomb style of the Later Han Dynasty.
The entire corridor was extremely bright, with many torches embedded on the walls on both sides. The firelight reflected the mystery of the unknown end of the corridor.
"Oh, you are really lucky, brother Erbao, I almost gave up on you." Erbao said to me happily.
"Brother Erbao, where are the godfather and the others, are they okay?" I asked worriedly about Liu Baye's safety when I opened my mouth.
Erbao raised his hand and patted my shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Master Ba is fine. He followed the large army into the tomb passage. Let's follow them quickly."
"Okay." I nodded in agreement. Because of my fault, I don't know how long the delay was. I need to meet Liu Baye as soon as possible, because the people around Liu Baye are all people with ulterior motives. .
When I got to the shore, I felt more and more that the diving equipment was really heavy. After discarding it, my body felt lighter.
There was a lot of discarded diving equipment on both sides of the corridor, even piled up into a hill, but compared with the initial number, it was still reduced a lot.
When I was in the water, my body might have been numb, so I didn't feel the cold. It wasn't until I calmed down a bit that I felt the biting cold.
Erbao also turned blue and was trembling all over. Seeing this, I hurriedly took down two torches from the wall on the side of the corridor and handed one to Erbao. The blazing flames on the torches also made my body feel so intense. A hint of warmth.
Because we wanted to meet Liu Baye as soon as possible, Erbao and I were in a hurry. At first, the journey was smooth and there was no abnormality at all. However, after walking a few hundred meters, Erbao and I were forced to stop.
In front of him was an arrow trap. The dense arrows embedded about seven or eight corpses on the ground or on the walls on both sides. Most of them were subordinates of the Cao Gang, the Bai family and the Lou family. The family only lost one or two people.
The ground was dripping with blood, arrows were all over the ground, and the bloody footprints on the ground in front stretched into the distance. It looked like these people had forced their way through.
Several green bricks on the ground showed obvious signs of sinking, which must have been the mechanism that was accidentally triggered.
Erbao and I have experienced arrow traps like this many times, and we have found the rules. Just follow the triggered blue bricks, so with human life as a foreshadowing trap, it is very important to me. It's pretty simple for Erbao.
I opened the way in front, and Erbao followed behind me, moving forward step by step according to the position of the mechanism.
As I walked, I suddenly heard a clicking sound in my ears. The sound was like the sound of water drops falling on the ground, but it was also more like the sound of wet soles landing on the ground.
I was very surprised at that time. You must know that Erbao and I had almost squeezed out the water from our bodies, and because we were holding torches, our bodies were almost dried.
Naturally, this kind of sound was not made by the two of us, so who was it? When I suddenly stopped, Erbao also stopped immediately. When I turned around, Erbao also slowly turned his head away.
When he saw the source of the sound clearly, he couldn't help but gasped in shock. He saw four or five water monkeys crouching five meters behind Erbao.
Drops of water kept dripping on the ground. A pair of glowing eyes stared directly at Erbao and me. The purple and slender tongue kept licking at the side of the mouth. , this is a sign of hunger. Erbao and I have become food within their reach.
Looking at the several-meter-long mechanism in front of me, I swallowed hard, gritted my teeth and said, "Now the only thing left is to fight, Brother Erbao, run!" I shouted as I As soon as we ran, Erbao and I started to rush forward. During this period, I didn't know how many traps I touched. In short, the rain-like arrows were shooting straight at us from all directions.
At the last two meters, a dense cluster of arrows like a honeycomb came towards me. Just when I was about to be shot into honeycomb, Erbao shouted loudly behind me,
"Dongzi, get down!" Then Erbao threw me to the ground with a flying swoop. I got up from the ground again. I had left the place where the arrows were arranged. I raised my hand and touched my head. The pain was so painful that I took a breath. Fortunately, Erbao pounced in time, which caused the pain. It was just a few scalp injuries, otherwise he would definitely have died.
Ouch...ouch...! The miserable screams could be heard endlessly, and the water monkeys who wanted to use us as food were shot mercilessly. Only one water monkey with a lame leg screamed and escaped, and the remaining ones had already been shot. It looked like a hedgehog, with black and sticky blood splashing everywhere.
call……! I exhaled a long breath and said with lingering fear: "It was such a close call. I was almost shot into a hornet's nest. Brother Erbao, thank you." Erbao stood up and brushed off the dust and wrinkles on his body and smiled. Then he said to me: "We are all a family. Why are you grateful? Brother Erbao, I have always treated you as my own brother. How could I just watch you lose your life?"
"Brother Erbao, I have always regarded you as my real brother." I replied with some emotion as my nose felt sore.
Seeing that I was a little touched, Erbao came up to me at this time and said with a wicked smile: "You owe Brother Erbao my life now, you know, I don't want you to pay me back, as long as you help me get Xiao How about I catch you sir? If you are a master in love, this shouldn’t be a difficult thing!"
"..." I was so full of emotion just now that tears were brewing in my eyes, but I didn't expect Erbao to actually make such a request to me, which really left me speechless.
I am a master in love, I am very dedicated, okay, I will become a master in love when I am. But having said that, I didn't expect Brother Erbao to be so serious, so I also planned to do my best to help him. As for whether it succeeds or not, it's up to God.
Looking at those big hedgehogs, my heart was still beating hard. On the one hand, I was sighing for the rest of my life, and on the other hand, I was rejoicing. I never thought that these water monkeys would actually eat them. Everyone caught up and came ashore.
But fortunately there is this arrow mechanism, otherwise Erbao and I might have become the food of those water monkeys.
