With the faint light in Fatty Aning's hand, Wuxie discovered that they were now in a huge reservoir. There was a huge flow of water rushing down from the well entrance on the surrounding walls. He and Fatty were standing on a stone platform. The distance from the stone platform to the top is about seven or eight meters. The bottom of the stone platform is full of high spurs. If you are washed down from the water channel above, you will definitely hit these spurs directly.
"If it weren't for the tacit cooperation between Fatty and Jin Zi just now, you would have thrown these rocks up."
Jin Zi lay on the fat man's shoulder and shook his little head at Wu Xie.
Wu Xie raised his hands to Jin Zi and said, "Thank you Jin Zi for saving your life."
Gold waved his little paw, you're welcome.
Lu Yao's voice came from above, "Wuxie, what did you encounter above?"
Wu Xie raised his head and saw that Lu Yao and An Ning were checking something on the wall. There were stone carvings of animal heads at the exit of the waterway. Lu Yao and An Ning were stepping on these stone carvings.
"Forget it, it has a mutated pheasant neck, lizard webbed feet, crayfish claws, and several densely packed mouthparts in its mouth."
When Wu Xie mentioned it, he seemed to feel the frightening and fierce light of that thing again.
Lu Yao relied on his qinggong skills to move around the walls, and finally found several dry water channels above.
"That's no wonder. As soon as we went down, Jin Zi said there was something in the quagmire, but it was hiding and it was hard for us to find it. We just didn't expect you to come down so slowly. We were all swept away. You can't come down yet. There's nothing you can do. I can only let the gold go to you."
Wu Xie touched Jin Zi's turtle shell gratefully and said, "Thank you Jin Zi. If Jin Zi hadn't pulled it quickly, I would have been bitten by that damn thing."
Aning jumped down from the top, "This should be a diversion flood storage tank, and the water will continue to flow along that side to the pool below."
The place Aning mentioned could be seen by Wuxie standing here. It was too obvious. It was a mountain of dead branches and leaves. It should be a blockage washed down from outside over the years.
"I'm just confused. We saw the quagmire gathering up. With just that little water, Fatty almost drowned in the puddle. We couldn't see any of the passage below."
Wu Xie didn't speak, his eyes were fixed on the water outlet. The fat man saw that his expression was wrong and pushed him, "What's wrong?"
Lu Yao came down from above and followed his innocent gaze. He could see a dazzling red under the dead branches.
The fat man said softly: "This should be just a dead one, right?"
"It's hard to say," Lu Yao pointed to the top of the water flow, "There is a dry water channel over there, and the exit may be there. Aning, I will send you up first."
An Ning nodded on the side. They all saw the water channel that Lu Yao mentioned. It was four or five meters above. The surrounding walls were very smooth. It was difficult to climb up by rock climbing alone.
Why do you want to send Aning up first? Of course it's because she is light and has enough strength.
Lu Yao carried Aning and flew upwards. The moment Lu Yao flew up, a pheasant neck with a thick wrist rushed out of the water channel and bit Lu Yao.
Pheasant necks, both thick and thin, were also flying out of the waterway below. Under the light of Lu Yao's mining lamp, the surrounding areas of the stone platform were filled, and snakes were crawling out of the water one after another.
"Fuck!" The fat man held the engineer shovel in his hand, "This is a fucking snake's nest!"
Wuxie and Fatty leaned against each other and looked around warily, "What are these pheasant necks waiting for? Why don't they attack?"
Many of the pheasants here have necks as thick as a fat man's thighs. They don't attack, they just swim around. It's really scary to look at them.
"You can't just wait for Lu Yao to come down, right? Are you going to catch us all in one go?"
Wu Xie angrily told Fatty to shut his crow's mouth.
Lu Yao easily dodged the pheasant's neck. Even though the ladder was famous for its lightness and changeability, it was easy to avoid a snake. He sent Aning to the dry waterway, turned around and jumped off.
The snake on the water was nothing to worry about. There was a huge creature where Wuxie looked just now.
Seeing Lu Yao coming down, Wuxie asked worriedly: "Is there an exit up there?"
"I don't know. The water channel is so long, and I don't have clairvoyant eyes. I have to rely on Aning to explore it. There are several water channels up there that don't have water. If this doesn't work, I'll go to another one."
At this time, the snake in the water couldn't hold it anymore and made a "gurgling" sound in its mouth. After dealing with these snakes for so long, several people also figured out some patterns. If this snake made a "hissing" sound, At this time, it is when the mood is stable. At this time, whether it will bite is random, just like the weather in June.
Once they make a "clucking" sound, it means they will not stop fighting.
Lu Yao holds the sword in his hand, and his internal energy is working to adjust his condition to the best.
"If Aning hangs down the rope in a while, you should leave quickly."
The two nodded silently.
A pheasant's neck attacked first and flew towards Wuxie, who was knocked away by Wuxie. The surrounding snakes began to swarm towards the three of them.
The three people form a circle with their backs together. This is the best formation to fully respond to the attacking pheasant neck.
"Damn it! Your fucking conscience is so broken, where are you going to bite it?"
The fat man slapped away the neck of a pheasant whose target was his crotch, and couldn't help but curse.
Wu Xie laughed loudly at the side, "Fat Master, Pheasant Neck is trying to make you die off your descendants. Can you bear this?"
After smashing a snake head, the fat man took a sip and said, "I can't bear it anymore. Come on, let's watch the fat man kill everyone."
Wuxie suddenly heard a faint voice coming from the other side of the exit, "No time."
The voice sounded like a woman urging someone anxiously, and the accent seemed to be that of a snake from Changsha, with a slight Hunan accent in her speaking voice.
The fat man was a little confused, "Damn it, how could I hear an accent from a snake?"
"What's all the fuss about? Didn't you know that snakes can talk?"
The fat man said loudly: "Damn, is this comparable to the ones I met before? You can only speak, but you can't even speak with an accent. Is this snake learning human language over there in Changsha?"
"F*ck!" Suddenly Wuxie yelled, "If you go to Hunan to further your studies, I'm afraid half of the people there will die."
Lu Yao quickly turned his head to take a look. Among the dead branches on the other side of the blocked water outlet, a snake head as big as a double-scaled python suddenly stuck out. It had a waist as thick as a bucket and a ferocious red comb. He looked at the three of them with sinister eyes. At that time, the three of them felt a chill all over their bodies.
