Without saying anything else, I came to the pavilion in the center of the lake, holding the soul lock with my left hand. After taking a deep breath, I jumped into the cold lake water.
I dived along the columns of the pavilion that went deep into the water. After a while, I reached the bottom of the lake and stepped on the mud at the bottom of the water.
Looking around, I could see nothing in the pitch black water. I could only slowly explore along the marble pillar.
When I turned to the back of the column, I suddenly felt that there was a bulge on the column, and there were constant knocking sounds from inside.
I pulled the soul lock hard and signaled to Zhao Lina above.
Suddenly, countless clumps of hair came from all around, but this time, those hairs did not trap me. Instead, they formed a barrier around the column, completely isolating the lake.
Taking this opportunity, I grabbed the bulge and pushed hard. The column split from the middle, revealing a narrow entrance.
I quickly got in, and then blocked the entrance. After confirming that the lake water would not flow in, I took a deep breath and began to observe the surrounding situation.
There is a two-square-meter space under the feet, which is muddy. Although there is no light shining on it, it is very bright inside. I don't know where the light source comes from.
A male student was tied up and tied to a bulge in the corner. He was already emaciated and exhausted.
When the male student saw me, his face was filled with panic and he screamed in fear.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you."
While comforting me, I stepped forward and untied his restraints.
"Wow, thank you, thank you for saving me!"
The male student probably thought he was dead, but when he was suddenly saved, he burst into tears with excitement and collapsed on the ground.
"By the way, how did you hold on for such a long time?"
According to Principal Xue, this boy has been missing for nearly a month. How can an ordinary person survive being trapped underwater for so long without food or water?
"There are some small bugs such as mosquitoes and spiders on the walls here, and sometimes there are some toads, small fish and shrimps sneaking into the bottom of the water. I rely on these things to survive..."
The student said weakly.
Listening to the male student's story, I couldn't help but feel a little admiration for him.
For a student who is inexperienced in the world, trapped at the bottom of a lake where the sun never shines, without a strong mind and an extreme will to survive, it is impossible to persevere until now.
"Come on, I'll take you out now."
After helping the student take two steps, I suddenly noticed that under his feet, there were lines of light shining from the soil. It seemed that the light source of this underground space came from this gap in the soil.
I wanted to squat down and dig away the soil, but the male student could no longer hold on and passed out.
I could only temporarily give up on finding the secret of the light source, carry the male student on my back, and get out of the hole. Then, protected by those hairs, I floated all the way up and swam out of the water.
"Ni, please help send him to the hospital, and then take the time to liberate Zhao Lina."
After bringing the male student to the shore, I said to Lonnie.
Lonnie was stunned for a moment: "Xiao Chengzi, what do you want to do?"
I told her about the light source I had just discovered at the bottom of the lake: "There is something wrong with that light source. I have to go down and investigate."
"No, this is too dangerous!"
When Lonnie heard this, she immediately shook her head to express her disagreement.
Zhao Lina has already said that there is a terrible monster deep in the lake. Just now I dived into the bottom of the lake alone to save people, and Lonnie was already worried.
"Ni, I feel that this matter is not that simple. There may be some conspiracy behind the scenes. If I don't investigate clearly, I won't feel at ease."
I said to Lonnie: "Don't worry, I have been very good at water since I was a child. If I encounter that monster and I can't defeat it, we can still escape without any problem."
Seeing that she couldn't persuade me, Lonnie could only tell me to be careful, and then left with Zhao Lina and the male student.
I rested at the Huxin Pavilion for two minutes. After regaining my strength, I dived into the bottom of the lake again.
Without Zhao Lina's assistance this time, as soon as I entered the confined space, a large amount of lake water poured in from all around, and soon it was submerged up to my waist.
I didn't care, I just lowered my head and dug hard in the mud with my hands.
Soon, my hands touched a blue brick. After opening the green brick, an iron box appeared in my sight.
Channels of golden light were emitting from the iron box, shining through the knee-deep lake water onto my face.
I quickly put the box away and was about to leave the confined space when the entire confined space suddenly began to vibrate violently.
"Roar!"
A terrifying roar came from deep underground, shaking my eardrums!
I didn't dare to stay any longer, so I quickly got out of the hole, put the iron box in the Qiankun bag, and swam quickly towards the water.
Along the way, I didn't even take a breath, I just shook my limbs desperately, but I heard the roar getting louder and louder, and the entire artificial lake began to shake.
Finally, I was about to break out of the water. At this time, I took some time and looked back towards the water.
I saw a huge figure squatting deep in the bottom of the lake. A pair of giant copper bell eyes were emitting a long green light, staring at me!
I was so scared that I trembled. How could I dare to look at that monster?
With all my strength, I jumped onto the shore and ran away without looking back until I reached the teaching building. I felt relieved when I saw that the monster did not come out of the lake and chased after me.
After confirming the safety, I took out the iron box, opened the lid, and found a yellow talisman inside.
The texture of the yellow talisman is simple, but there is not a word on it. Just touch it with your hand, and you can feel a trace of deep Tao Yun flowing continuously.
No characters, what does this mean?
I was puzzled, but now I couldn't think of an answer, so I put the no characters away and planned to discuss it with Fourth Sister when I went back.
I called Lonnie, who told me that someone from the school had sent the male student to the hospital and he was fine now. As for Zhao Lina, she was following my request to send him to death.
I nodded and found Lonnie, who happened to have completed her salvation for Zhao Lina, and then we returned to the Xiangluo Street Incense and Candle Shop together.
It was already midnight and everyone was asleep, so I didn't disturb anyone. I just lay on the bed and took a nap, preparing to take Wu Zi to the Yin Yang Association headquarters the next morning and hand it over to Fourth Sister.
Early the next morning, while I was still sleeping, a sudden ringtone rang. I picked up the phone and heard Principal Xue's urgent voice from the other side.
