Before the rain stopped, the little brother rowed the boat to the middle of the lake.
The original buoy mark was swept away by the rolling lake water during the thunderstorm last night.
The little brother put on his equipment, leaned back into the water, and quickly swam deeper into the lake.
He did not go to the crack in the shaft at the bottom of the lake that the two men discovered yesterday, but directly entered the Yao Village under the water.
The little brother felt strangely familiar with this place. He walked through countless tall wooden buildings and came to a tower in the center of the village.
The Chinese-style tower has three floors. I got in through the broken window on the top floor and swam to the back hall on the lower floor. Under the light of the diving flashlight, there were many shadows shaking behind the screen.
The little brother walked around the screen and saw a dozen iron figurines fixed behind it. The right hands of these iron figurines were all artificially damaged.
The little brother stopped and stared at these iron figurines, a little lost.
At this moment, a door behind the iron figurines suddenly opened. As if he suddenly remembered something, he quickly walked around the iron figurines and entered the door.
Behind the door is a not-so-long stairway that leads to an underground stone chamber, which contains many of the same iron figurines fixed on shelves as those seen above.
However, what is strange is that the right hands of these iron figurines were also damaged.
The little brother frowned, as if he had remembered something, and his expression looked a little painful.
Suddenly there was a rush of footsteps behind him. The boy subconsciously turned around and saw a black shadow flashing past the stairs.
Not caring much, the little brother raised his feet and chased after her.
The black shadow was very fast. After shaking a few times among the iron figurines, the person disappeared.
There seemed to be something strange about the water flow around him. The boy realized something was wrong and hurriedly ran out of the tower.
Unfortunately, it was already too late. A strong suction force came from behind, and the water flow rolled like a tornado, directly sucking the little brother in.
The little brother wanted to grab the iron figurines to use force to fix his body. The surface of the clinker iron figurines was coated with a special material and was very smooth.
The man slipped, and the whirlpool directly carried the little brother and the floating objects in the surrounding water through the staircase passage and fell into the patio behind the iron figurines.
﹉﹉﹉
In the tent, as soon as Zhang Zhuxun opened his eyes, he was faced with a rough face full of wrinkles. The pupils were shrunken. His body reacted before his brain and he kicked him out.
Agui was originally squatting well, but he was kicked unexpectedly and fell to the ground, his face full of confusion.
Only then did Zhang Zhuxun realize what he was doing. He got out of his sleeping bag and helped Agui up, apologizing again and again.
"It's okay, it's okay." Agui waved his hand, "Boss Yu, are you feeling better? I boiled some medicine to dispel cold and dampness, drink a bowl of it after it's warmed up, and then I slept with a blanket to sweat out. The cold will be cured naturally."
Zhang Zhuxun was a little confused, "Cold?"
Who catches a cold? He doesn't have a cold, but his head hurts for some reason.
Agui groaned, "That's what the cold-faced boss said. When I came here this morning, I saw that your face was burning and bleeding. I kept wiping your face with a cold towel until the redness faded away."
"What did the little brother say?" Zhang Zhuoxun frowned and saw the ancient black gold knife placed next to the sleeping bag. He walked over and picked it up, "What about the others?"
Agui pointed to the outside of the tent and said, "He went into the water. He went down before the rain stopped this morning."
When Zhang Zhu heard this, he became anxious and rushed out.
Agui quickly grabbed him and said, "This can't be done. You're just sick. If you go out and get caught in the rain, you'll have a fever again."
Zhang Zhuxun was extremely anxious and asked Agui, "What time is it now?"
Agui didn't have the habit of wearing a watch, so he made an estimate and said, "In another hour, we can almost have lunch."
Zhang Zhuoxun cursed secretly, put aside Agui's hand, turned around, rushed into another tent, picked up his equipment, and headed straight to the lake.
At this moment, a huge rumbling sound of water came. Zhang Zhuoxun looked forward and was shocked.
A whirlpool had formed on the lake, and the rubber boat floating on the water was knocked upside down by the current, and was quickly swallowed by the whirlpool.
The whirlpool grew larger and larger, and soon spread to most of the lake.
The siphon tide came and went quickly. He had no time to put on his equipment. Zhang Zhuxun hurriedly put all his things into the space, took two hurried steps into the water, jumped forward and got into the water, and quickly swam towards the whirlpool in the center. past.
A huge wave swept over and hit Zhang Zhuxun's face, beating him to pieces.
Before he could react, Zhang Zhuoxun lost control as the waves rolled up, and he could only hear the rumbling sound of water in his ears.
Within a few breaths, his body began to fall uncontrollably, stumbling against the wall of the well and sliding down the steep slope.
Suddenly, his back hit something, and the huge impact caused Zhang Zhu to lose his breath. The turbid water rushed into his mouth and nose, and his lungs only felt a burning pain.
He subconsciously reached out and grabbed something like an iron railing, slowing down the force of his fall, and his consciousness barely returned.
The water flow continued to hit him. Zhang Zhuxun stabilized his body, took out an oxygen bottle from the space, turned his back to the water flow, and bit the air nozzle. He finally breathed smoothly.
The water was so turbid that Zhang Zhuxun couldn't open his eyes, so he had to reach out and touch slowly and tentatively.
This shaft is not very wide, and people can barely turn around, but there is no special feeling around it, and the iron railings are also welded and cannot move at all.
It's weird, how did Slump Shoulder get so many people into Milotuo's cave?
The impact of the water flow gradually became smaller, and Zhang Zhuxun knew that this time the siphon tide had passed.
After the fluctuations in the water flow calmed down, Zhang Zhuxun stood up, carried the oxygen bottle on his back, and went upstream against the water flow along the shaft.
In the original plot, the little brother and the fat man said that when they were almost suffocating and unconscious, they were stabbed from behind and lost consciousness.
However, Zhang Zhuxun did not see the younger brother in front of the iron fence that blocked debris in the shaft just now, so the younger brother must have been stolen by Tongqiao.
Going all the way up until he drilled out the entrance of the patio, Zhang Zhuxun didn't find anything unusual in the shaft.
Just as he was wondering, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart, turned his head quickly, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
It turned out that at some point, a gray figure wearing a diving mask was standing behind him.
The man in gray was holding a bamboo pipe in his hand. He was planning to make a sneak attack, but when Zhang Zhuoxun noticed him, he quickly stretched the bamboo pipe forward.
A very short silver needle quickly cut through the water flow and headed straight for Zhang Zhuxun's neck.
Zhang Shuxun reacted quickly, took a step back, raised his left hand to grab the silver needle, conjured a Type 06 underwater bayonet out of thin air in his right hand, raised his hand and attacked the man in gray.
The two of them fought for more than ten moves. The opponent was unable to move with one leg. Zhang Zhu found the flaw and stabbed his chest with a knife. Suddenly, a trace of blood mist dispersed in the water.
Zhang Shuxun wanted to catch him in pursuit, but the man in black was very familiar with the environment here. He took advantage of the force of Zhang Shuxun's attack and escaped directly into the darkness behind him.
When Zhang Zhu pursued him, he found that the other party had disappeared.
Zhang Zhuoxun spit out a string of bubbles, changed his oxygen bottle, and followed the direction where the man in gray clothes last disappeared.
Logically speaking, a Chinese-style tower of this size should be symmetrical.
Zhang Zhuxun quickly walked through the staircase passage and arrived at the third floor of the tower. He looked up at the thickest support column in the center of the tower, and then quickly walked to the carved wooden wall opposite.
He stretched out his left hand and touched it lightly, then stopped at one place and reached out to press it. A disc about the size of the palm of his hand sunk in about three centimeters. In the middle of the disc was a cryptographic device like a Bagua disc.
Zhang Zhuxun used his fingers to twist the Tai Chi fish in the center to restore the Kun and Gan positions.
With a click, the wooden wall shook, and a finger-width gap opened in the middle.
Zhang Zhuoxun was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, what a guy, this damn girl actually did it
It's a sliding door.
Perhaps the wood had been soaked in water for too long, and the wood had deformed. Zhang Zhuxun only pushed open the one-hand-wide gap and reluctantly squeezed in sideways.
The wooden board under my feet has been covered with furry and unknown algae for many years, leaving a series of footprints, one shallow and one deep.
Zhang Zhuoxun followed the footprints around the screen and unexpectedly saw many iron figurines with missing right hands. The outer layer of these iron figurines seemed to be wrapped in pitch-black armor, which revealed a sense of eeriness.
There is also a door behind the iron figurines, which is ajar. It seems that the guy has already entered.
Zhang Zhuoxun slowed down his pace as much as possible and entered the passage along the stairs. At the end was a stone chamber, but unlike the opposite, there was no patio that could produce siphon tides.
The wall of the stone chamber is directly connected to the uneven mountain. There is a gap two people wide in the middle of the mountain, but it has been filled by dark green jade veins.
This is where the footprints end.
But now Zhang Shuxun is in some trouble, because the alkali stored in his space is in powder form, and it will react chemically with the surrounding water as soon as it is taken out. Not to mention killing Milotuo, even Zhang Shuxun himself can be affected by the reaction. The heat produced burns.
Depend on! Zhang Zhuoxun cursed in his heart, how did he get in with his slumped shoulders?
No, wait a moment.
Looking at the shadows on the dark green jade veins, Zhang Zhuoxun suddenly thought of a way.
Then he took a step forward and flatly pressed his body against the jade veins. Although his body temperature had dropped a lot after being soaked in cold water for a long time, compared to the cold jade veins, Zhang Zhuxun was the only source of heat at this moment.
As soon as he put it on, Zhang Zhuxun was so cold that he shivered and wanted to jump away immediately.
Gritting his teeth and enduring the biting coldness, he waited quietly. Sure enough, the gray shadow in the jade veins became clearer than before.
Click, click, click, and you can even faintly feel the movement of creatures walking in the jade veins against your chest.
Finally, a broken voice was close to his ears, and a green hand stretched and retracted in front of Zhang Shuxun's eyes. Soon, a green face also appeared.
Staring at those two empty eyes, Zhang Zhuxun felt creepy and chilled in his heart.
Finally, a hole was dug out of the jade vein, and Zhang Zhuxun was separated from the ghost inside by a layer thinner than glass.
Miluotuo's roar was also heard. Zhang Zhuoxun took a step back, took out the ancient black gold sword from the space, raised his hands high, and was ready to go. When Miluotuo got out half of his body, he slashed in the air.
With a click, the jade vein in front of him, along with the Milotuo inside, was split into two halves by the ancient black gold sword.
The black-haired snake inside was also split into two, fell out from Milotuo's heart, twitched a few times, and then stopped moving.
After the first experience, Zhang Zhuxun followed the same method. Although it was slow, after half an hour, the space he was in was completely isolated from the water.
He put the oxygen bottle, which was a bit in the way, into the space, then took out protective clothing and put it on, took out the alkali powder and pickaxe and shovel, and started spraying and digging. The speed sped up a lot.
After an unknown amount of time, the jade veins in front of him were suddenly interrupted. Zhang Zhuxun breathed a sigh of relief and finally came out.
This is a flat excavated cave, only about twenty square meters in size. When you stand upright, you can put your head on top of the cave.
The rock material here is very rough, water is seeping down from everywhere, the ground is wet, and there is a dark green jade vein on the cave wall, and the Milotuo inside has no sign of coming out.
Zhang Zhuoxun looked around and found no trace of his brother.
I don’t know where that shit with the slumped shoulders got me.
Zhang Shuxun put away the used tools, put on protective clothing, and walked out from the other side of the cave with a knife.
Various stones can be seen everywhere here. Zhang Zhu was mainly looking for the cave where the God of Thunder was placed in the original plot.
Not far out, Zhang Zhuxun discovered that the caves here were very complicated, extending in all directions, like a maze.
Helpless, he had to carve marks on the mountain wall to avoid getting lost.
After passing through six caves in a row, Zhang Shuxun finally entered the seventh cave and saw many iron figurines, all placed on large iron shelves.
There are also some old-fashioned mining picks placed next to the shelf.
This cave is obviously much wider than the previous ones. The ceiling and walls of the cave are covered with dark green stripes, emitting a deep dark light.
In the middle of the cave, there is an upside-down jar, and on it is a dark statue of a god with a majestic and ferocious face. It is the God of Thunder that Zhang Zhu is looking for.
Zhang Shuxun's eyes suddenly lit up and he found the evil god statue, which meant that the little brother was nearby.
I don’t know what’s going on in my head with my slumped shoulders. Could it be that I think a dead creature evil god can still affect me?
Zhang Zhuxun took out the alkali powder and manuscript again, randomly picked a jade vein hole opposite the Evil God, and started spraying.
The jade veins that Milotuo just passed through are softer than the old jade veins, so they are easy to clean.
After spraying on the third one, I finally found the right place.
The little brother was lying quietly beside a pile of rubble.
Looking around, I saw that the mountain wall was densely covered with dark green jade veins.
Damn it, Zhang Zhuxun cursed secretly, he finally knew why that bastard-shouldered bitch put him here.
Once the little brother wakes up and tries to make a fire, it's like sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth.
Zhang Zhuxun hurried over to check on his little brother, and sure enough, he found a small pinprick on the back of his neck, which was slightly purple.
It is not advisable to stay here for a long time.
Zhang Zhuxun quickly took off his protective clothing stained with alkali powder and moved his brother to the cave he had dug earlier with fewer jade veins.
Then he started to deal with the wounds on the little brother's body.
