He followed the underground river all the way down, but did not find the exit. Because the rapid water got into the whirlpool, the underground river also disappeared. This made Liu Wusheng somewhat complain and complained, saying: "I just said it should be Listen to me, swimming against the current is the right answer.”
In this dark underground, hunger and lack of oxygen are obviously the biggest enemies that need to be faced. Yu Huo knows that if he doesn't find an exit as soon as possible, he will most likely end up here.
But the upper reaches of the underground river have collapsed, and it is obviously unrealistic to go back.
The only way to survive now is to find a way out from here.
Yu Huo is a wanderer with no fixed abode. He lives a life of food and shelter. He is used to carrying some dry food to fill his stomach, just in case. It seems that these biscuits can come in handy at critical moments.
Yu Huo took out some biscuits from his backpack and threw them to Liu Wu Sheng. Liu Wu Sheng blanched as if Yu Huo was angry, but took the biscuits and ate them by himself.
In fact, Liu Wusheng was angry not because Yu Huo didn't listen to him, but because of those beads just now. If Yu Huo hadn't stopped him, maybe he could have taken out a few more and watched helplessly as these treasures fell into the underground river and disappeared. There was no trace of him, which made Liu Wusheng feel a sharp pain in his heart.
After filling his stomach and complaining well, Liu Wusheng stood up, patted the soil on his body, and checked the ten beads in his pocket. However, he was thinking about the four beads on Yu Huo's body, and said with a longing expression on his face: "I see this For a while, we can't get out, and we can only watch these people's pupae being washed away by the water. They are all treasures. No matter what, you have to compensate me?"
Liu Wusheng regarded wealth as his life, and took his shamelessness to the extreme. Yu Huo said with a speechless face: "How can I compensate you? Besides, if you hadn't run so fast just now, you would have been buried here."
Yu Huo's tough attitude made Liu Wusheng helpless. Seeing that Yu Huo didn't accept his trick, he immediately softened and said with a playful smile: "Otherwise, you have four beads in your hand now, keep one for yourself." , I will keep the remaining three for you first, and when I make money, I will share half with you, how about that?"
Liu Wusheng's eyes widened when he saw Qian, how could Yu Huo be so good with him? He didn't want to pay attention to him, and said lukewarmly: "I believe you, if this thing can really make money, you will be so kind, and give up your own share." Half of me? Besides, I still don’t know what this thing is, maybe it’s just an ordinary bead, worthless.”
Seeing that Yu Huo refused to take the initiative, Liu Wusheng immediately changed his face and said in a straight line: "The road is your choice. You have to find the exit as soon as possible and take me out."
People like Liu Wusheng are all about profit and cannot be trusted at all.
If it is true as Lai Changqing said, for the sake of profit, it is not impossible to seek refuge in the "Five Immortal Guards".
"Have you heard about the Five Immortal Guards?"
Yu Huo suddenly said such a sentence, which made Liu Wusheng's body unnaturally startled, but in order to cover up his guilty conscience, he pretended to be calm, pretending to be ignorant, and said: "What... what, Five Immortals What?"
Judging from Liu Wusheng's behavior just now, it is very likely that he has taken refuge in the 'Five Immortal Guards', and he intends to get close to him this time, perhaps to perform a certain task arranged by the 'Five Immortal Guards'.
Without saying a word, Yu Huo did not reveal Liu Wusheng's mask on the spot, but instead said: "This underground river has disappeared into this whirlpool. If you want to get out, you can only give it a bold try."
After Yu Huo finished speaking, he pointed at the turbulent water in front of him that was constantly being sucked into the whirlpool. Liu Wusheng was so frightened that he trembled for a while and stammered: "You...you mean, jump into this whirlpool?"
Yu Huo nodded and said with a relaxed expression: "You come first, or should I come first?"
Liu Wusheng knew very well that the underground river behind him had collapsed, and the rate of collapse was approaching them. If they did not want to be buried alive, there might be a glimmer of hope in this whirlpool.
Liu Wusheng also knew that whether he jumped first or Yu Huo jumped first, the probability of life or death was the same.
If you jump first, you don't know what's going on under the whirlpool. If Yu Huo jumps first, you don't know the way forward either.
"Let's count one, two, three and dance together!"
Liu Wusheng has always been a businessman. In his eyes, he will not let anyone take advantage of him. This is his true face.
It doesn't matter to Yu Huo. This underground river is spacious and the current is fast. If we enter the water together, there will be no loss. The only question is whether Yu Huo's sewn skin can withstand the test of the whirlpool.
The top priority was urgent, and there was no other option. Yu Huo gave Liu Wusheng a wink, and then jumped deep into the water. Then he heard a splash, and Liu Wusheng also jumped into the water.
The two of them followed the rapid current and were instantly sucked into the whirlpool.
Just as Yu Huo and Liu Wusheng were submerged under the whirlpool, the sky above the originally peaceful underground river suddenly collapsed with falling rocks and mud, and the underground river completely disappeared into the darkness.
The reason why Yu Huo was so bold and dared to jump into this whirlpool was because the half-dead body he was currently in was due to his confidence in his body, and even more confidence in his corpse-stitching techniques.
Obviously, Yu Huo's self-confidence did not disappoint Yu Huo. In the whirlpool, Yu Huo tried his best to prevent his body from being harmed by the pressure of the water flow, and kept letting his body follow the flow of the whirlpool. Changes with changes in air pressure.
After more than thirty seconds, Yu Huo's entire body fell from a high altitude and fell heavily into the reservoir.
The moment he fell into the water, a warm current ran through his body, releasing him like a trapped animal breaking out of its cage.
Yu Huo desperately fluttered toward the water. The moment he emerged from the water, the fresh air made Yu Huo feel the care of nature.
Looking up, I looked back at the height where I had just fallen from more than ten meters. It turned out to be a waterfall flying down three thousand feet. The sky and the world were connected by a thin line, just like rice dropped into a pot. It was magnificent.
Yu Huo did not miss the beautiful scenery of the mountains and rivers, and moved his body to the shore as soon as possible, because this temporary skin was not suitable for soaking in the water for too long.
When Yu Huo was escaping, Liu Wusheng's loud gasping for breath could be heard not far away. Unexpectedly, this guy was able to survive the fight with his own flesh and blood. It was also a miracle that should not be underestimated.
Liu Wusheng risked his life and climbed to the shore. Although he was exhausted, he lay down on the grass with a smile on his face. He raised his right hand with difficulty and gave a thumbs up to Yu Huo. This was Praising Yu Huo for daring to take the risk also made him feel lucky that he was able to save his own life.
After escaping from death and returning to Jianghai, Yu Huo immediately found Wu Dieyi. Under her investigation, she discovered that the beads hidden in the belly of the mummy were not ordinary beads, but the rumored bloodthirsty beads. .
It is this kind of beads that absorbs the blood and moisture of corpses, turning these corpses into mummies that are not rotten.
But the effect of blood-thirsty beads is far beyond that. Apparently, these mummies were force-fed with this thing before they were made into adult pupae. This thing is not only bloodthirsty, but can also make people temporarily comatose, even for a long time. Can't wake up.
It is said to have psychedelic effects, and it is even mentioned that it has the ability to calm souls. It is said to be a miraculous skill.
Because of this, it has long been banned among the people, but in the hands of some criminals, for the sake of profit, they do not hesitate to risk crime and circulate this substance privately.
Bloodthirsty beads are prohibited goods. Because of this, their price on the black market is very high. Some unscrupulous merchants have speculated them to tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands. This made Liu Wusheng hear the news. , I will probably faint in the toilet from crying.
"Miss Adie, are these beads just for making mummy pupae as an appetizer?"
Yu Huo has witnessed so many mummified human pupae with his own eyes. What he still doesn't understand is why these people put so much effort into making so many human pupae?
From the perspective of criminological psychology, there is no interest in this, which means that no reasonable motive for the crime has been found.
Wu Dieyi shook his head and said seriously: "These mummy pupae are used to awaken evil spirits."
"Evil spirit?"
"These evil spirits are actually dissatisfied with Lord Ghost Head's rule in the Lost Nest, so they were expelled from the Lost Nest by Lord Ghost Head and fell outside the Lost Nest territory, where they will never be reincarnated."
Wu Dieyi is the messenger of the Ghost Sect. He has followed Lord Ghost Shou for many years, and he knows a little bit about the history of the Lost Nest and the outside of the Lost Nest territory.
There are many different opinions about the grievances between the Lost Nest and the outside of the Lost Nest. There are too many versions, but the most credible one is that these evil spirits who were expelled are increasingly dissatisfied and have the intention of uniting to resist.
At this time, a 'Five Immortal Guard' suddenly appeared, making these evil spirits seem to have found the light of day. They cheered for the 'Five Immortal Guard' and followed them to the death.
In order to prevent the abandoned nest from being wary, the 'Five Immortal Guards' used the guise of guarding the abandoned nest, ostensibly to maintain the safety of the abandoned nest, but privately they recruited troops and continued to strengthen themselves, forming a force that cannot be underestimated. .
The ambition of the "Five Immortal Guards" is not only to return to the nest, but also to return to the human world.
And these mummy pupae are the preparations made by the 'Five Immortal Guards' to return to the human world.
With these mummy pupae, evil spirits can be summoned. Once the evil spirits wake up and use the corpses to resurrect their souls, they can naturally return to the human world, causing harm to the world and even dominating the world.
Although Wu Dieyi's words are just speculations about the 'Five Immortal Guards', if you think about it carefully, it's scary to think that if this mysterious organization succeeds in its conspiracy, a catastrophe in the world will be inevitable.
"Does Lord Ghost Head know the existence of this organization?"
Yu Huo was afraid just thinking about it, but he knew very well that the abandoned nest was the abandoned nest of Lord Ghost Chief. He commanded hundreds of ghosts and maintained the order of the abandoned nest. How could he allow the forces outside the abandoned nest to break the existing situation.
"Of course I know, and I have been investigating secretly. I think Lai Changqing has already looked for you."
Wu Dieyi is worthy of being the messenger of the Ghost Sect. Although he betrayed Yichao at the time, he never gave up his identity as a "ghost" and knew the news about Yichao very well.
It seemed that a civil war was unavoidable between the tumultuous Lost Nest and the outside of the Lost Nest, and this war might break out at some point in time.
"However, in order to awaken the evil spirit, three things are needed."
Of course Yu Huo knew what the three things Wu Dieyi mentioned were. One of them was the guiding lantern that he buried under his tombstone.
"What are the other two?"
"The blood-drinking underworld ring in your hand, and the mysterious underworld mirror whose whereabouts are still unknown."
Unexpectedly, the three sacrificial vessels of the corpse-stitching lineage became the key to awakening the evil spirits, and all three were indispensable.
At present, both the Forgotten Nest and those outside the Forbidden Nest are trying their best to find the whereabouts of these three things.
This made Yu Huo's pressure suddenly surge into his heart.
"Also, there have been a series of murders in Jianghai recently. The murderer deliberately targeted the corpse-stitching lineage, just to lure you out."
