After waiting for another hour or two, the moon was already high in the night sky, and the temperature of the hot spring water had dropped to a level that was suitable for people to enter.
Liu Baye and I have gone down once before, and we are quite familiar with the water, so this time Liu Baye and I went down first, leading the way for the people behind us.
A few seconds later, we fell to the bottom of the water again and saw the stone door with frost gradually beginning to condense on its surface. Bai Laosan gestured to everyone twice, signaling everyone to step back a little, and then he hit the stone door with a heavy hammer.
Although it was in the water, the heavy sound caused by the heavy hammer hitting the stone door could still be heard clearly.
Bai Laosan tried his best, but after several hammer blows, the stone door didn't move at all, which made Bai Laosan so tired that he couldn't help spitting out a string of long bubbles.
Among the ten people in this group, apart from Bai Laosan, who is bigger, the only one left is Bai Chi. After seeing Bai Laosan hit him a few times, he stopped doing it. This guy may also want to show off to the balding old man, so he can do it smoothly. He took the heavy hammer from Bai Laosan's hand, swung it round, and then smashed it towards the stone door.
The result may be that Bai Chi used too much force, and the heavy hammer broke even with its head. He almost hit his own foot, but the stone door remained the same.
I was standing aside watching the show, but I don’t know when everyone started to turn their attention to me. The bright lights were so bright that I couldn’t open my eyes.
Because I was underwater at this time, even if someone spoke, I couldn't hear it at all. But as all eyes were focused on me, I naturally understood their intentions. They were counting on me to use It's the Dragon Exploration Claw.
I did not express my position directly, but looked at Mr. Liu Ba who was aside. It was not until Mr. Liu nodded slightly to me that I slowly walked towards the stone gate with the Dragon Detection Claw in hand.
The stone door may be indestructible in the face of the heavy steel hammer, but in the eyes of Dragon Claw, it is not worth mentioning at all. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is made of paper.
Under the gaze of eighteen eyes, I grabbed the dragon-detecting claw towards the stone door in front of me, but I just grabbed it casually twice, and the seemingly rock-solid stone door was caught by me. Smashed.
As the stone door shattered, there was a strong suction force that forced my body to press against the broken stone door.
Bang...!
There was a muffled sound, and the entire stone door collapsed in an instant. It seemed that there was a vacuum behind the stone door. Now that I scratched it, a large amount of water poured in, creating a strong suction force.
This powerful suction force is irresistible to human beings, so I became the first person to enter the hole and was sucked in alive.
At that moment, I felt like riding a roller coaster. I couldn't control my body at all and could only keep rolling forward with the current.
I don’t know how long it took, but the dizzy feeling made me want to vomit. My body was still spinning, but it didn’t seem as strong as before.
I stretched out my dragon-detecting claws and grabbed the wall beside me, and then managed to stabilize my body.
The body is stable, but the brain still seems to be shaking back and forth in the skull. The uncomfortable feeling is simply indescribable.
Under the illumination of the headlight, the vision was turbid. It seemed that all the dust inside the stone door over the years had been caught in it.
As time went by, the water flow gradually became calmer, and the eyes were not as turbid as before, and became clearer.
In a daze, I seemed to see a figure appearing in front of me. I guessed who it was that was also swept here by the current, so I swam forward quickly to see who that person was.
But when I got closer, I realized that it was a real person, but it was not a real person at all, but a human-shaped stone sculpture.
The workmanship of the stone carving is extremely rough, and it can only be seen that it is a human figure. The details on the surface and the outline of the face are extremely blurry.
There is nothing special about the stone sculpture itself. The only special thing is that there is a thin layer of ice condensed on the surface of the stone sculpture.
After seeing the thin layer of ice attached to the surface of the stone sculpture, I came back to my senses and felt the temperature of the surrounding water. It would be an exaggeration to say that it was bone-chilling cold.
At this time, there were several lights flashing behind me. I roughly counted, there were nine lights in total, which meant that everyone was fine.
Soon everyone gathered together, and after a while of dancing and communicating, the group of people continued to move forward along the cave in front of them.
The interior of this cave is not very spacious. It is suitable for one person, but if two people are side by side, it will be a bit crowded.
It is precisely because of this that I was at the head of the queue, pushed forward by the nine people behind me.
On the way forward, I saw several more stone statues. Some were still standing, while others were lying on the ground and broken into two pieces. Judging from the sharpness of the fractures, it must have been caused by the crazy inflow of water before.
After walking along the cave for another seventy or eighty meters, a stone door appeared in front of me again. This stone door seemed not as intact as the previous one. There were bloody cracks on the stone door. I stretched out my hand. Sticking to the stone door, you can feel the slight tremors. I don't know what the other side of the stone door will be like.
I calmed myself down, holding one hand on the wall on one side, then turned around and waved the Dragon Detection Claw on my hand at the people behind me, and pointed at the stone door in front of me to tell them that they were all ready. It's time to break through the second stone door.
Having learned from the past, I am no longer so reckless this time, because until now my mind is still in a state of confusion, and it hurts terribly.
I tentatively dug a small hole on the side of the stone door with the tip of my claws to avoid something like what happened just now.
Maybe I was overthinking it. When I dug through the stone door completely, I didn't feel any suction at all. This shows that the other side of the stone door is under the water and is not a vacuum like the cave.
I tentatively dug a small hole, and when I saw nothing unusual happened, I felt relieved. I completely destroyed the stone door in front of me with three strokes, five divisions, and two strokes.
The stone gate collapsed, and in front of you was a piece of water. The water was extremely clear, and you couldn't even feel the slightest impurity. However, the water was really bitingly cold, and the diving suit on your body couldn't resist such a cold.
We are also at the bottom of the water now, but it is much wider than before.
Just like what I saw in the cave before, there are a lot of human-shaped stone sculptures lying on the bottom of the water. The surface of these stone sculptures has been attached to a sink of minerals, and it seems that they have been soaked in the water. I don’t know how long it’s been.
I only took a cursory glance at those stone sculptures, because I had to leave the water as soon as possible, otherwise I would have died of hypothermia before the oxygen was exhausted.
Looking up, under the light of the headlight, I seemed to see the water, just five meters away from my head.
I waved to the people behind me who were shivering with cold, and then quickly floated upwards.
Soon I climbed onto the shore. I thought that my body would be relieved after leaving the cold and biting water. But what I never expected was that this water was condensed everywhere on the water bank. There is a thin layer of ice, and the coldness in the air is no less than the temperature in the water.
The hot springs were all boiling hot. Who would have thought that we would encounter such a cold place, so no one had any warm clothes, and everyone was shivering from the cold.
Originally, I had to take off this heavy diving suit after getting out of the water, but now it seems that all I can get rid of is just an oxygen bottle. If I take off the diving suit as well, I'm afraid it will be even harder to hold on. How long.
Especially the two young masters, Bai Fei and Bai Cai, looked as if they had never suffered this crime before. The two of them huddled together tightly, as cold as two dogs.
