In the deep sea, everything returns to silence.
Yun Xiao kept staring at the figure in front of him, and when he realized what was happening, he was already in darkness.
This depressing environment made Yun Xiao panic for a moment. Although there were occasionally schools of fish passing by in front of her, other than that, she could only hear her own heavy breathing and aggravated heartbeat.
Yun Xiao swallowed his saliva, forced down his ups and downs of emotions, and then raised his hand to light the lamp on his forehead. As soon as the light came on, the figure in front seemed to be frightened, slowed down for a moment, and then suddenly accelerated.
Yun Xiao was stunned, then immediately swung his legs and followed.
I saw the man twisting and turning in one direction, and stopped in front of a certain underwater cave.
Upon seeing this, Yun Xiao also stopped 10 meters away from him. Yun Xiao looked at the man and did not dare to approach easily. Instead, he watched his next move vigilantly.
In fact, Yun Xiao discovered the clues from the beginning.
Even with her maxed-out attributes, she had to wear a shark suit, carry an oxygen tank and a respirator.
The man in front of me could still swim at high speed on the freezing cold seabed without wearing any diving equipment. If he were an ordinary person, he would probably freeze to death in the sea before he even got halfway through the swim. He doesn't look like a drowning person in need of rescue. I'm afraid people are simply leading her forward.
Where does he want to take himself?
Yun Xiao was floating on the spot and saw the figure staying in front of the cave entrance for a while. He seemed to look back at Yun Xiao consciously, and then dived into the cave without a trace.
Yun Xiao knew that he was checking whether she was following or not, but just when she was about to leave, someone suddenly grabbed her from behind. Yun Xiao looked back and saw that Lu Beixi had caught up.
Yun Xiao pointed at the hole to Lu Beixi and made a gesture to get in.
Lu Beixi looked in the direction she pointed and saw the cave not far away. He nodded, but still didn't let go.
Yun Xiao looked at him with confusion. At this time, Lu Beixi was wearing a shark suit, a respirator, and an oxygen tank on his back. His black hair was floating in the sea, and his face was white from the sea water. He looked scary. Yun Xiao was stunned, and subconsciously clicked on the opponent's attribute panel to check. Seeing that Lu Beixi's physical strength was currently at 70%, and there was no big danger, he was relieved.
Since he couldn't communicate in the water, Lu Beixi simply pointed behind him, stretched out two fingers to make a sign of two, and then pointed into the hole, bending his two fingers side by side.
Yun Xiao instantly understood that he meant to go find Yu Fei and Zhu Yingying first, and then go in together when the four of them were together.
Since it was an NPC that lured them here, this cave must be related to the rematch mission. Yun Xiao thought for a moment, nodded, and swam back with Lu Beixi to pick up Yu Fei and the others.
With the diving equipment provided by Yunxiao, Zhu Yingying could successfully reach the area below 100 meters. Even so, she tried her best. She felt that her heart and lungs were about to be squeezed. The area further down was basically being dragged forward by Yu Fei. Zhu Yingying was dizzy at this moment, gasping for breath weakly, and no longer had the momentum she had just on the shore.
She forced herself to raise her eyes and suddenly saw lights flashing in the distance. After a while, she saw Lu Beixi and Yun Xiao swimming in front of them.
Zhu Yingying's eyes were filled with excitement when she saw the two of them appearing.
At this moment, even Yun Xiao being held by Lu Beixi didn't look so annoying.
When the four of them gathered together, Lu Beixi immediately formed a team of four, and then pointed in front of him and gestured. Yu Fei and Zhu Yingying immediately understood that they had discovered something ahead. Yun Xiao took a look at the team panel and found that Zhu Yingying was in a bad situation. Her mental value had dropped below 20%! Looking at Yu Fei and Lu Beixi, their mental values have also dropped below 50%.
You can't drink recovery items underwater. Yun Xiao relied on his high attribute values. At this time, his mental value did not even drop 10%, but the three of them swam here with all their strength. Yun Xiao immediately took out three [Advanced Hemostatic Needles] from his bag and pricked their necks one by one.
Although the main function of the advanced hemostatic needle is to stop bleeding and restore physical strength, it can also restore 100% of mental strength. Unlike other oral items, this thing can be completed directly through injection.
The three of them suddenly received a shot, and their spirits improved immediately. Even Zhu Yingying regained consciousness from her depressed look.
After Zhu Yingying regained her energy, she glanced at Yun Xiao with a complicated expression. Yun Xiao rarely negotiated the price with Lu Beixi this time. She raised her hand and pointed behind her, signaling for everyone to follow.
Upon seeing this, the three of them no longer hesitated and immediately followed Yun Xiao and swam towards the cave.
Several people came to the entrance of the cave. Yun Xiao looked inside and found that the person before was long gone. Yun Xiao looked inside with a headlight and found that the cave was very small. Looking at the situation, only one person could pass through at a time.
Yun Xiao turned to look at a few people, pointed at himself and made a sign of 1, and then made a sign of 234 to each of them. This means that he will take the lead, Zhu Yingying will enter second, Yu Fei will enter third, and Lu Beixi will follow.
Several people had no objections and followed Yun Xiao as they filed in from the entrance of the cave.
The four people followed the twists and turns of the cave and shuttled through the winding paths of the cave. Some of the places were so narrow that they would even bump into oxygen bottles. For safety reasons, Yun Xiao had to slow down. After all, this was a deep sea area, and a few people were fighting in this narrow path.
If the oxygen tank leaks in a place like this, it's no joke. Just a lack of oxygen can directly kill someone, making it impossible to escape.
A few people struggled to swim in the narrow cave tunnel for half an hour, and gradually the front opened up. The surroundings were so crowded that they couldn't turn around, and the space behind them became wider and wider, until they could walk side by side.
As the space opened up, several people swam out of the narrow cave in a short while.
Yun Xiao wore a headlamp and looked around in the water, and found that the water outside the cave was turquoise.
Yun Xiao swam forward, and suddenly a thick and skewed stone pillar appeared in front of her. She walked around the stone pillar and took a closer look, and found that the pillar was covered with green plankton, and it looked like it had been standing here for several years.
She turned around and looked again, and found that there were many more pillars like this. Among the intertwined thick stone pillars, some pillars were intact, and some were broken and their original appearance could not be seen clearly. But without exception, the pillars are covered with complex carvings, like ancient ruins that have been silent for thousands of years.
Seeing this scene, Yun Xiao frowned. Why did this scene look like entering a certain themed dungeon?
Yun Xiao raised her eyes and looked upward. There was a faint light floating above her head. She immediately turned off the headlight and motioned for several people to swim upward.
After a while, several heads finally emerged from the sea.
Everyone was floating on the water, breathing heavily. Yun Xiao took off his mask, looked up and looked around, and found that the surrounding area was an extremely wide cave, with a starry sky as big as a bowl exposed above the cave.
Yufei clicked on the system panel and wondered, "What the hell is this place? I don't see it on the map. Our location is still in Clare Town."
His voice was not loud, but it produced a loud echo in the cave.
Lu Beixi looked to one side, "That's where we can go ashore. Let's get there first."
Several people struggled to climb ashore and immediately changed out of their bulky outfits.
As soon as Yun Xiao turned around, he saw Lu Beixi standing in front of him. His wet hair was still dripping, but he raised his gun towards the darkness of the cave.
"Who is it, come out!"
Several people were stunned when they heard this, and immediately looked at the dark place with vigilance.
Wet footsteps sounded in the empty cave.
From the darkness, a man with blond hair walked out with heavy steps.
Yun Xiao looked at the blond hair that was still dripping with water and narrowed his eyes, "You brought us here."
The man smiled reluctantly when he heard this, "Hello, I'm Sachi, we met these two on the shore."
Zhu Yingying saw the man's face and immediately said, "Yes, it's him!"
Yu Fei walked up in two or two steps, grabbed the man's collar, stared and said, "Where is Blanc! Why did you lead us here?"
The blond man named Sa Qi was dragged off his feet from the ground. He slowly raised his hands and said with a pale face, "I'm sorry, can you let me go first? I will tell you all."
Lu Beixi stepped forward and patted Yu Fei on the shoulder, and then Yu Fei let go of him.
Saatchi sat down on the ground and said slowly, "To tell you the truth, my wife Mia and I are a pair of wandering food documentaries. We travel all year round to search for unknown ingredients on various maps..."
Lu Beixi put his gun against Saqi's head, "Let's get to the point."
Sachi trembled and said, "This is the point. Just listen to me."
Yun Xiao raised his hand and interrupted, "Can I ask first, how did you dive into such a deep seabed without relying on equipment? Also, what are those things you inserted at the beach for?"
Sa Qi smiled bitterly when he heard this and said, "I was about to say that the bamboo pole is actually used to observe the rising tide of the sea. Mia and I found an ancient book on food ingredients half a year ago. We found that the ancient book recorded a mysterious desert island that no one cares about. , which records countless mysterious ingredients that exist on the desert island.
Mia and I were very excited about this, so we searched everywhere. Finally, we compared ancient books and maps and found that the entrance to the island may be on the seabed of Clare Town. Ancient books say that the entrance will only be opened when the difference between the rise and fall of the seawater reaches three meters. So Mia and I use poles to check the rise and fall of the sea water every day. "
Yun Xiao looked around, "Is this the mysterious desert island recorded in ancient books?"
"Yes... Mia and I came here once later. That time we found countless rare ingredients and brought them back to the shore. We also found this - shark grass. If you eat it, you can breathe freely in the deep sea and travel as fast as Like a shark.”
Yun Xiao stretched out his hand ruthlessly, and Sa Qi had no choice but to take one out of his bag and hand it to her.
Yun Xiao clicked on the green plant in her hand, [Shark grass, after eating it, you can breathe in the water, change the surface of the skin and not be affected by sea water, and increase the speed in the water by 100%], her eyes lit up, what a good thing!
There was only one in his hand, so Yun Xiao stretched out his hand again.
Sa Qi said, "These things are everywhere here, you can just pick them yourself..."
Lu Beixi raised the muzzle of his gun. The sound of Sachi's muzzle being struck by the gun became weaker, and then he took out another one from the bag, "Here you go, at worst I'll just pick it again..."
Yun Xiao then raised the corners of his mouth with satisfaction, turned around and gave two to each of the people one by one, and stuffed the rest generously into his backpack. Seeing Yun Xiao's action, everyone was speechless.
Yun Xiao grinned and looked at Sa Qi, "You continue."
Sage held his forehead and continued, "That day, Blanc happened to come to the coast of Clare Town for a walk. Mia and I saw him taking out the snacks he made and eating them while looking at the sea. At first, we thought it was... The tourists who came to relax did not pay much attention until he brought out the snacks, which attracted us. It was a flower-like snack, made lifelike and looked delicious! And Blanc was a very nice person. When he saw the two of us staring at his snacks, he kindly gave them to us to taste. Ah, the taste was so..."
Yu Fei snorted coldly, "They are really two foodies..."
Saatchi glanced at him and said, "People like you who make chili sauce with golden earthworm king have no right to criticize us."
Yu Fei glared, "You!"
Lu Beixi stopped Yu Fei and said, "Continue."
Sachi looked at the dark muzzle of the gun, shrank his neck and said, "...Later, Mia and I couldn't help but chat with him, and then we found out that he was a chef, and he made the snacks himself. , not only can he make these, but he also has many beautiful and delicious foods that he has shared with us. Mia and I immediately became very interested in him. You know, good ingredients should be paired with good cooks. !
Later we learned that the coast of Claire Town was where Blanc and his lover Lillian met for the first time. It was Lillian’s birthday soon, and he wanted to come to the coast to get some inspiration and make a delicious dish for Lillian.
And took this opportunity to propose to his Lillian.
Mia and I immediately decided to give him some of the ingredients we got on the desert island to help him out.
Unexpectedly, the ingredients looked great, but no matter how they were made, the taste would become mediocre. Although Mia and I both felt that he had done a good job, he fell into deeper distress, waiting for him to try. On the third time, the ingredients were used up.
Mia and I saw that he was driving himself crazy, which told him the opening time of this desert island. After Blanc found out, he waited at the beach every day, but Lillian's birthday was less than a week away at that time, and it was not certain whether the entrance to the desert island could be opened. "
After listening for a long time, the confused Zhu Yingying finally understood, "Oh, so Blanc didn't disappear, but came here to look for ingredients?"
Sage lowered his head, "I think so..."
Yun Xiao raised his eyebrows when he heard this. If you don't say these words on the shore, why do you have to bring them here to talk? The situation of these people was so bad just now. If he hadn't been here, there would probably be just a few corpses here now.
She sneered, "If my guess is correct, you brought us here not to help us find Blanc, right? After all, this desert island is so difficult to find. It's not a good thing if there are too many people who know about it."
Lu Beixi never put down the gun in his hand. He stared at Saqi's head and asked coldly, "Where is your wife? She was with you at the coast just now. Why are you the only one?"
Sa Qi covered his face when he heard this and said in a hoarse voice, "Yes...Actually, my wife also..."
Lu Beixi narrowed his eyes when he heard this, "What do you mean?"
Saatchi slowly raised his head, with sad tears hanging from the corners of his eyes and his eyebrows furrowed, looking very sad. But after a while, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and his head tilted back, making a weird gurgling sound.
Lu Beixi frowned and was about to ask again, but Yun Xiao's eyelids twitched when she saw this scene. She pulled Lu Beixi back and said, "Be careful! There's something wrong with him!"
