My heart was beating wildly.
I immediately grabbed a few people beside me and dragged them back a few steps.
"Don't go there, the person in front is not Cui Hao."
The pale face looked straight at us, and the figure began to shake, floating along with the water waves.
Then, like a puddle of soft water, the figure paddled straight towards us with the surrounding current.
"No, that thing is coming, let's leave quickly."
Wang Wangyang grabbed my arm and immediately swung his arm, pushing the rest of us towards the stone gate.
But the figure's speed was extremely fast. He quickly closed the distance between us with lightning speed.
But in just a few seconds, this guy had already swam behind us, and was only about one meter away from my ankle.
My eyes were filled with tears and I slid my arms hard.
But the next second, my body sank, as if something was lying on my body, grabbing my hands and feet heavily.
I tried to move my arms and swim forward, but I couldn't get it right.
An icy chill instantly enveloped my entire body. In fact, I was wearing a protective diving suit, but I could feel the coldness pouring into my body along the clothes.
I struggled hard, but my hands and feet refused to obey me. They were pressed tightly by the force and I couldn't swim at all.
My body gradually sank.
I vaguely heard Wang Wangyang’s frightened voice next to my ears.
"Little prince, hold on. I'll be here to save you right away."
I vaguely saw a beam of light in front of me, shooting in my direction.
At the end of the beam was Wang Wangyang's frightened face.
I don't know what he saw, but I know that if I don't break away from the force pressing on me as soon as possible, sooner or later I will be pushed down into the deep tunnel by this force.
What will happen in the next second is simply immeasurable.
I gritted my teeth and pushed my body forward, quickly resisting the force in my body and swimming upward.
At the same time, I clenched my fists, moved my joints, and hit the thing on me hard with my elbows.
Through the wetsuit, I could feel my elbow hitting a very soft place, and the touch seemed like flesh.
But I'm not sure either.
After I hit hard, the strength in my body seemed to relax a bit. I barely supported my body and swam up a certain distance before I was pressed down.
I lowered my head and looked at the bottom of the tunnel with the help of the searchlight above my head.
The moment I saw the ground, my whole body trembled, and I almost couldn't help being dragged down by this force again.
Because the water below is densely covered with aquatic plants. The aquatic plants are about one meter long and are constantly floating left and right with the current here.
But in the middle of the water plants, I saw an extremely dark and strange skull.
The skulls had deep eyes, and they were huddled among the water plants, staring at me with strange expressions.
I have no doubt that if I were really pressed into these water plants, maybe I would become one of them.
I don't know what the purpose of this thing is, but he definitely has bad intentions.
Just when I was dazed, the weight on my body suddenly began to increase, and another strong force fell on me, pressing me down heavily.
As my body shook, I was forced to press down nearly half a meter.
The distance between me and those skull faces is getting closer and closer, and I can even feel the rotten smell from their mouths spraying onto my face.
Just the moment I saw these skull faces, I seemed to see a silvery thing flashing past among the water plants.
But before I could see it clearly, the thing had already disappeared among the water plants and disappeared.
The situation was urgent, and I couldn't focus on these unimportant things.
I continued to struggle with my arms, trying to break free from this guy's grasp.
At this time, I suddenly heard a heavy hitting and collision sound coming from my ears.
The next second, all the weight on my body disappeared.
Something fell from my body and fell directly into the center of the water plant.
I immediately struggled to swim upwards, looking around in horror.
Only then did I realize that Wang Wangyang had swam in front of me, and he was holding something like an iron rod in his hand.
He immediately swam to my side, and Wang Wangyang's concerned greetings sounded in my ears.
"How are you? Are you injured anywhere?"
I shook my head and stared nervously at the water plants below.
"You saved me?"
Wang Wangyang nodded, with a hint of lingering fear on his face.
"Yes, just when that monster was holding you down, I hit him on the head with this iron rod, and that thing fell down."
With that said, Wang Wangyang quickly grabbed my arm and dragged me up.
"Let's swim up quickly. It's too weird down here. I don't think I killed the guy just now. Maybe he will attack us again. We have to leave this place as soon as possible."
I nodded, but my eyes always fell on these water plants and I couldn't move away.
"Wang Wangyang, have you seen those skeletons?"
Wang Wangyang glanced at me in surprise, then lowered his head and stared at the things among the water plants in confusion.
"Skeleton, what skeleton?"
I pointed at the water plants, and when I looked there intently, I realized that the place where I saw the skeletons was now empty.
And those tiny skeletons completely disappeared before my eyes at some point.
"How is that possible? Why are these things missing?"
I approached the water plants doubtfully and tried to push them away to prove to Wang Wangyang that I was not deceiving him.
And the moment I took action, I once again noticed that I seemed to see a silvery white thing, flashing past my peripheral vision.
And this time it was quite obvious that the silver-white thing seemed to be a human figure.
But before I had time to see it clearly, the thing disappeared in front of my eyes again, disappearing among the water plants.
I stood frozen in shock.
At this time, Wang Wangyang’s frightened voice rang in my ears.
"What was that just now? Why do I look like Cui Hao?"
I was stunned and quickly looked towards Wang Wangyang.
"What did you say? Did you see Cui Hao?"
Wang Wangyang frowned and nodded in confusion.
"It seems so, but I'm not sure. I just saw a silver figure swimming past among the pile of water plants. It seemed to be the protective clothing we were wearing."
I was stunned and immediately looked down at the diving suit I was wearing.
The outside of this spring water suit is silver-white, which should be some kind of special protective paint. The silver-white appearance is painted with some blue thin lines, which looks extremely eye-catching.
When I looked up at Wang Wangyang again, I found that our lights were shining on his body, and the silver-white protective clothing seemed to reflect extremely bright light.
The silver reflection under the water is quite eye-catching.
Only then did I realize that the two silver-white figures I had just seen in the light were probably the shadows left behind when our protective clothing lurked below.
It's just that at that time, I was already used to seeing the protective clothing we wore, so I didn't notice such anomalies at all.
On the contrary, Wang Wangyang was more attentive, so he noticed the difference right away.
I immediately swam under the water plants.
Wang Wangyang saw this and grabbed my arm, forcefully pulling me back.
"Don't be impulsive. The water plants down here are so dense that I can't see clearly what's inside. What if there's something dangerous hidden inside?"
After saying that, Wang Wangyang took something out of the backpack on his back, and then took out a folded stick and handed it into my hand.
"Don't worry about anything else. You have to take this stick first. Let's go down together. You can help me keep a lookout while I search the aquatic plants below to see if there is anyone inside."
I hurriedly shook my head at Wang Wangyang.
"No, I'll do it. In any case, my reaction ability is much faster than yours, and I also believe that the things under the ground, even if they really want to do something to me, they can't get any advantage from my hands."
I returned the folded stick to Wang Wangyang, but turned over and took out the Shang Fang sword I brought before from my backpack.
This thing is much easier to use than other sharp weapons. Shang Fang's sword is beyond the reach of ghosts and gods.
The moment he saw Shang Fang's sword, Wang Wangyang was stunned for a moment, but then he silently took two steps back.
Obviously he agreed with my opinion and asked me to start the beginning, while he came to support me from behind.
I carefully and slowly approached the water plants. At the same time, I raised Shang Fang's sword and cut off all the unsightly grass blades around me.
I aimed the blade of the sword above at the roots of the grass blades as much as possible, so that most of the water plants could be cut off, leaving us with a clear enough field of view to observe.
In this way, I can see the situation under the water plants more clearly.
After the water plants were cut, I threw the discarded blades of grass aside.
But the moment I threw up the blade of grass, I suddenly heard Wang Wangyang's exclamation.
I immediately turned back and looked towards his side.
Wang Wangyang was holding a handful of water plants in his hand and pointed to me at the roots of the water plants with great horror.
"My young prince, I finally know where the skulls you mentioned are. Look at this place. Is this the same skull you saw before?"
