The huge dark hole under the pool should be where this octopus monster usually lives. The surrounding rock walls have been rubbed very smooth over time. After I jumped out of the hole, I did not fall on the octopus monster's elastic body. Instead, it keeps falling. How deep is this hole?
After free falling for more than ten seconds, I heard a splash into the water below, and then, I also fell into the cold water.
The water here is different from the water in the swamp when we went into the water. At least the water in the swamp still has a temperature. The water here does not see the sun all year round, and it is freezing cold deep underground!
Can the injured Qinghe endure such bone-chilling water... But if she can survive in that kind of environment for thousands of years, she must not be a mortal, so I don't need to worry so much... I'd better think about myself. !
Why? I can't swim!
The third second after falling into the water, I remembered this incident.
There is no Chi You grass mud, no oxygen tank, what am I doing? ! Seeking death, seeking death...
The moment I fell into the water, I was carried by the gravity of the blue crane. I fell at least two or three meters in the water and was completely unable to struggle out of the water. I adjusted my sight distance and saw that in the middle of the octopus monster's body, where its mouth should be, there was a The inconspicuous little mouth is bubbling...
I secretly cursed myself for not thinking carefully about what I did. I followed the octopus monster into the water just like a showman. At this moment, it was spitting bubbles at the bottom of the water, and I was drinking the bubbles in the water...
After spitting out a series of bubbles from the octopus monster's small mouth, it slowly spit out a giant bubble. This bubble floated towards the direction where I was sinking, and enveloped me in it with just one flick!
This bubble separated me from the cold water, and my chest was filled with air again. I wonder how long the oxygen in this bubble can last. Is it enough for me to leave the bottom of the water?
The octopus swam to the bubble and held the bubble with his head. I saw that its eyes on the top of its head were about the same size as the bubble we were staying in. How big does it have to be for a small octopus to grow to such a big size? Easy...
It gently carried the bubbles and walked through the water. I saw many swimming shadows behind it. Is it Chi You? No, there are so many shadows, they are definitely not Chi You!
They were those fish-men who had disappeared into the pond before... They were extremely flexible in the water at this time. The huge hard fins on their backs allowed them to dive very deep under the water. The webs on their palms and soles were flicked. If you move, you can swim a long distance...The opening under the ear fin then becomes a gill for breathing, opening and closing.
Their ability to hear sounds underwater is even better. Around my bubble, a circle of murlocs surrounded me. They seemed to be able to see underwater! They all stared at me with round eyes and bared their terrifying, layered teeth at me! They are threatening me!
You have already passed the level of octopus monsters, do you still have to face these difficult fish-men? I think of Chi You saying that these fish-men are extremely vindictive. If you offend them, they will haunt you for generations... Now I am under the water. Although I am protected by the bubbles spit out by the octopus monster, I cannot They can swim...and underwater is their main battlefield...
Impulse is the devil! Why bother with these difficult guys... Now I am the fish and they are the swordsmen. As long as I destroy the bubble, they don't even need to do anything, I will just do it myself.
The octopus monster has been using its tentacles to separate the distance between the fish and the bubble, intentionally or unintentionally. It seems that he wants to protect me. At this moment, I can only pray that these fish people regard the octopus monster as a god and completely believe in the octopus monster. Choose, don't attack me!
After swimming in the water for a long time, light gradually appeared above my head, and I knew I was about to get out of the water! Those fishmen no longer pursued me, but their eyes still showed resentment. It was better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies... I just hope that next time I see fishmen, I won't be in the water.
With a light body, the bubbles floated out of the water and continued to rise in the night sky. The outlet where the octopus monster led us was a lake.
The night is so gentle, and the moonlight reflected on the sparkling lake is so quiet and romantic. Just seeing the moonlight makes me miss Little White Mao...
Moto and Yosuke also floated out of the water and floated to my side. They looked at the bubbles surrounding me in puzzlement. They formed a small arrow on their fingertips. They poked the bubble lightly and I Even with the blue crane, he fell into the lake again.
There was something soft under me that pushed me out of the water. It turned out that the octopus monster hadn't left yet. It wrapped its tentacles around Qinghe and me and sent us to the shore. Qinghe coughed a few times and stroked us gently. The big head of the octopus monster, "Go ahead..."
Then the octopus monster disappeared into the lake...
"Do you want..." I saw Qinghe woke up and wanted to ask her if she wanted to eat something, but such a fairy should not eat the fireworks of the world...
"Go ahead, I want to watch the moon here for a while..."
The blue crane sat hugging its knees and spread its wings in the moonlight, as if it was drying its feathers...
I had been hungry for a long time. Seeing how intoxicated she was at night, I stopped disturbing her. I took Moto and Yusuke to find Chi You who was out of the water at the other end of the lake, wanting to see if there was anything to satisfy my hunger.
"Where is that woman?" Chi You asked.
"Look at the moon~"
"By the way, do you have any connection with her? What happened to you in that cave? She has been acting strangely since the moment I saw her..." Qinghe was not around at the moment, so I quickly collected all my All doubts were thrown out.
"It doesn't have anything to do with it. It's just that in my future plans, I don't want anyone who will affect our future career."
"How do you know she will have an impact? Hey, hey, hey? How can it be our great cause? That is your own business. Let me declare that I will not participate!"
"Have you seen Qiongqi?"
"I may have seen it. But that place is too evil. I really don't know how to release him from behind the energy wave..." Then I entered the rock wall that Chi You couldn't enter and looked inside. I recounted everything I had experienced, including the night-blooming night-blooming tree, those whispers like mantras, and Qiongqi’s roars and paw prints...
After hearing this, Chi You looked thoughtful...
"Then you can always tell me why you go to such trouble to find out Qiongqi's whereabouts?"
"I want to know, what was Qiongqi said in the world you were in before?" Chi You asked me instead of answering my question.
"Qiongqi?" I searched for what I had heard about Qiongqi, but there was very little...
"In our world, there are four legendary beasts, namely the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, and Suzaku Xuanwu, and corresponding to them are the four great ferocious beasts... This Qiongqi seems to be one of the four great ferocious beasts... "
"A ferocious beast? Does that mean it's very ferocious?"
I shook my head, "No, it seems to mean that it does not distinguish between good and evil, it can eat people, and when it meets a loyal person, it will eat his nose! When it meets a bad person, it will reward..."
I saw that Chi You's face became uglier as he listened, and his voice gradually became quieter.
"I don't know, it's all myths and legends, I'm just talking nonsense..."
"Did you know that Qiongqi was transformed by the Water God Gonggong... Why is he so unbearable..."
"Gonggong?! Is he the Gonggong who is angry at Buzhoushan?"
I was shocked, but Chi You's eyes gleamed as if he had remembered something!
"Remember, be careful with that woman!"
After Chi You said his last words, he ran to the lake again...
"Don't come over, I will find you before dawn!"
I picked some wild berries from the trees to temporarily relieve my hunger. Moto and Yosuke were like crazy after they got out of the water, running around me, up and down, Only the white exhaust gas can be seen, and there is no trace of them...
I strolled to the lake, and Chi You had already disappeared without a trace. He told me not to look for him, so it was too late for me to be happy! There was nothing good he asked me to do... They were all just making fun of my life...
On the other side, I saw Qinghe standing up in the moonlight, spreading her scarred wings, and also her arms. She clasped her hands together and stretched them above her head, making a gesture of worship. Come on.
The moonlight seemed to have established a certain connection with her at this time. The wisps of light and shadow connected Qinghe with the bright moon thousands of miles above the sky. Qinghe began to sing a song. This tune always made me feel like I heard it somewhere. Pass...
I couldn't understand the lyrics at all, but I couldn't forget the tune... I saw dots of light floating around the crane, some growing from the grass, and some from the sparkling lake. Peeled out, some are from the light spots reflected by the moonlight on the leaves. These light spots, some are large, some are small, all shrouded around Qinghe...
Especially her injured wing, this light spot wrapped the injured area, going back and forth like a needle thread, they were repairing Qinghe's injured wing!
As Qinghe's melody ended, these light spots seemed to have completed their respective tasks, and a crane was heard in the air. Qinghe had spread his wings and soared into the sky carrying a string of light spots behind him.
What? Did Qinghe leave too? !
Have they all left me behind?
"It's amazing to have wings..." I angrily stuffed a handful of berries into my mouth, which made me choke and cough.
The wings of the crane looked very huge on her body, and the shape was very smooth. She was like a perfect curve in flight. She swooped in the air, swept low over the lake, and created a ripple on the calm lake... .
This is the first time I see her smile.
When Moto and Yusuke heard my cough, they thought something was wrong with me, so they came back to me and circled me, as if asking me what happened.
"It's okay...I just choked..." I comforted them.
"Look, they all have wings... If only I had wings too..."
Moto and Yusuke obviously didn't know what I was talking about, and they were floating in the air blankly.
"Wings!" I flapped my hands and imitated the posture of a rooster spreading its wings.
Moto and Yosuke surrounded me again, and actually formed two wings-like things, which were placed under my armpits. However, these wings were relatively small compared to my body...
They were flapping their wings vigorously, but the coordination was not coordinated. I was hung in the air funny...
"Okay, okay...put me down..."
The blue crane noticed what was going on here and flew next to me. I was like a long, twisting maggot with two small wings on both sides, twisting and turning in the air...
There are often embarrassing scenes in life, but I seem to have more of them?
Moto and Yosuke put me down, and I straightened my hair, pretending that nothing happened.
"Hey? What are these spots of light?" I pointed at the large and small spots of light behind Qinghe and tried to change the subject.
"Them? They are the souls of all things in the world, the souls of things in the lake, and the souls of vegetation. They are all different... I just asked for their power, so in return, I will take them to places they can't usually go. Wherever they arrive...after a while, they will each return to their foreign affairs."
This grass and trees, from the day they take root, cannot leave this small place. Even the fish and shrimps that are free in the water should go out to the world outside the water...
The light spot behind Qinghe slowly returned to the place where they originally appeared...
