In the underground river, the original turbulent whirlpool has disappeared, replaced by an undercurrent surging under the calm, mirror-like water surface, and the river water is rising quietly. However, Song Yijin and the other four people were unaware of all these changes.
They walked all the way, and after walking about seven or eight kilometers, a huge sky pillar suddenly appeared in front of them. This sky pillar towers into the clouds, with the upper part directly touching the top of the cave. The lower part not only completely occupies the entire cliff embankment, but also extends for more than a hundred meters into the underground river. If they want to continue moving forward, they must climb up and around the side of the Tianzhu. The four of them were already exhausted at this moment, but fortunately the bottom of the Tianzhu was relatively flat, so they decided to set up camp here and rest for a while. It didn't take long for the exhausted four people to fall asleep.
Just as they were sleeping, a sudden change came quietly. Due to the influence of the ground tide, the water level of the underground river began to rise simultaneously, and this time the tide was extremely fierce. Just an hour later, the river quickly overflowed the cliff embankment, submerging all four people who were sleeping soundly. The cold and biting river water woke them up instantly, only to find that they were in danger, and the water level was still rising. Having just escaped from the threat of the whirlpool, but now it is in such a desperate situation, it can be said that it is one wave after another.
Song Yijin first felt the biting chill. The cold water stung his body like needles, waking him up from his coma. Immediately afterwards, Zhao Xixi, Jiang Xiaobao and Chen Mingzhi also woke up one after another, looking at the rising river water in horror, completely frightened and overwhelmed. They knew in their hearts that if the floodwaters continued to rise, they might be in dire straits with nowhere to escape.
"Hurry up! Pack your things and get out of here!" Song Yijin shouted loudly, trying to get everyone to calm down and take action. However, they soon realized that there was no way out. Going back, it will take several hours to return to the Dark Stone Land; going forward, there is a huge sky pillar blocking the way. You can only continue to move forward by climbing hard along the wall of the sky pillar and bypassing it. But this is undoubtedly a very challenging task.
"Brother, the water has reached our ankles! What should we do? It will definitely be impossible to get through." Zhao Xixi said anxiously, with despair and helplessness in her voice. help.
"How about trying to climb the Tianzhu. We will climb as high as it rises. At least this way we can avoid being flooded." Jiang Xiaobao put forward a suggestion that seemed feasible.
"But what if the water keeps rising to the end? After all, this underground river is an egg-shaped space. Once it is filled with water, it means it has reached the top. By then, we Where can we escape? " Chen Mingzhi retorted worriedly, his words making everyone's fear even more intense.
Song Yijin was staring wide-eyed at the water that was still rising. He was panicking for a moment and had no idea at all.
Seeing that Song Yijin had not come up with a solution, Zhao Xixi became even more anxious. She shouted to Song Yijin at the top of her lungs: "Brother, what should I do? You should hurry up and get it." What an idea!"
"We can't wait any longer. Otherwise, let's go around the Tianzhu and go to the front. What do you think?" Chen Mingzhi also persuaded Song Yijin to make a quick decision. Decide.
"It seems that this is the only way it can be done at the moment. This Tianzhu is really too steep. Climbing up it will be no different from climbing on a cliff. Not only will it be very strenuous, but it will also be slightly You will fall if you are not careful." Song Yijin said as he was the first to climb up the Tianzhu. Upon seeing this, Zhao Xixi hurriedly climbed up and held Song Yijin's clothes tightly.
The two people grasped the pillar wall tightly with their hands and tried their best to move it to the side bit by bit. Since there were so few support points on the pillar wall that they could hold on to, every step forward was extremely difficult. At this moment, Zhao Xixi was not paying attention, and her body suddenly lost balance and fell straight down. Fortunately, Song Yijin reacted quickly and reached out to catch her in time, thus averting a tragedy.
Jiang Xiaobao and Chen Mingzhi looked at the smooth Tianzhu wall in front of them, their hearts filled with helplessness and anxiety. They tried to use their hands to grasp the protrusions or gaps on the wall as support points to climb up, but they tried several times to no avail. Every time they tried to push, their fingers couldn't get a firm grip on anything, causing them to keep slipping off.
Standing aside, Song Yijin was anxious. He knew that time was running out and if he could not find a way out as soon as possible, the consequences would be disastrous. At this moment, suddenly, Zhao Xixi's foot slipped, her body lost balance, and she fell straight into the water. This sudden change frightened Jiang Xiaobao and Chen Mingzhi, and they couldn't help but scream.
Upon seeing this, Song Yijin did not hesitate to let go of the rope he was holding tightly and quickly jumped into the water. He swam hard and tried his best to catch up and hold the sinking Zhao Xixi. After some hard work, he finally succeeded in pulling her back to the cliff. However, at this time, the water level on the cliff bank had risen to the calf level, and the situation became increasingly dangerous.
"It seems that this method does not work so far. There are too few support points for grabbing on the Tianzhu wall, and our hands cannot grasp them stably. " Song Yijin's tone revealed deep helplessness. There is no way to go forward, it is equally difficult to go back, and climbing up is an impossible task. Faced with such a desperate situation, everyone fell into despair.
Zhao Xixi was so anxious that her tears couldn't stop flowing down. As the water level continues to rise, if no action is taken, everyone will eventually be engulfed by the raging floods. "Never mind! I don't care about so much anymore!" Song Yijin muttered to himself.
"What? Big cousin!" "You are meOur leader, how can you ignore us? "
Jiang Xiaobao and Chen Mingzhi looked at Song Yijin in astonishment. They could not believe what their ears heard. At this critical moment, how could Song Yijin, the leader of the team, say something so disappointing? What about the words of responsibility? This made them feel extremely confused and disappointed.
"Brother, you must have a way, right? I believe you! " Zhao Xixi yelled in panic.
"No, you misunderstood what I meant. "Song Yijin quickly waved his hand and explained.
"Come, listen, I know a kind of martial arts. "
"What, cousin, do you know martial arts? " The three people's eyes widened, with expressions of disbelief written on their faces.
They never expected that their cousin, who usually looked ordinary, would actually hide such a secret. At this moment , their hearts are full of curiosity and expectation, eager to know what kind of martial arts their eldest cousin can do.
"It's too late to explain to you now. Listen to me, I am now using my belt as a reed. I will throw the belt on the water and cross the river with a reed. When I stand on the belt, the belt will float on the water like a stick. Then I will Carrying Zhao Xixi on my back, Zhao Xixi had to hug my neck tightly and never let go.
Then Jiang Xiaobao climbed up and stood behind me, holding Zhao Xixi with both hands, and Chen Mingzhi hugged Jiang Xiaobao. The two behind you must keep your bodies steady. You must not fall, because if one of the three of you falls, I will not be able to pull you back. "After Song Yijin finished speaking, he took off his belt, squatted down, and let Zhao Xixi climb on his back. Zhao Xixi was still embarrassed, but Song Yijin urged her to hurry up.
Then Song Yijin gently threw the belt to the water, only to see the belt Floating quickly and steadily in the water, Song Yijin took a deep breath and jumped up to stand firmly on the belt. The belt that was originally floating on the water was now as hard as steel and stood straight.
Seeing this, Jiang Xiaobao and Chen Mingzhi still had some doubts in their hearts, but they still had the courage to get on the belt. They saw Song Yijin stretching his arms, mumbling something, and trying his best to drive the belt forward quickly. The three of them felt the wind whistling past their ears, as if they were in a strong wind.
Zhao Xixi felt excited and nervous, and she stared. With her big eyes, she couldn't believe what was happening. She had been obsessed with martial arts novels since she was a child, and she never thought that she would one day experience such magical things. She once wondered whether she was in a dream. It felt so amazing.
However, Jiang Xiaobao and Chen Mingzhi who were following behind were completely confused, especially Jiang Xiaobao. He racked his brains and couldn't figure out why his eldest cousin knew. He couldn't help but begin to speculate about the unique skills of the martial arts expert, the Second Master.What kind of connection is there, and why the eldest cousin has been hiding the matter until now. Countless questions came to mind, making Jiang Xiaobao's brain almost explode.
The space of this underground river is simply beyond imagination. The cliff embankment has completely disappeared from sight at this moment, and it is impossible to judge how deep it is submerged in the water. However, what is worrying is that they still cannot find an exit and can only remain in a state of high tension, relying on the sound of dragon roars to guide the way forward, and hoping that they can find a way out.
This chapter is not finished yet, click on the next page to continue reading.
Their hearts were filled with endless uneasiness and doubts. They didn't know how long they would have to move forward in this dark and deep environment, and they had no way of knowing where the exit was. At this moment, the only thing that can be done is to closely follow the guidance of the dragon's roar and keep exploring forward. At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the water ahead. Three black figures quickly passed through the water, then raised their front body on Song Yijin's right side and continued to walk side by side with them.
The sudden change made Zhao Xixi and the two people behind him terrified, and their bodies trembled involuntarily. Song Yijin took a closer look and realized that it was actually a water dragon! He quickly comforted: "Don't be afraid, we have met these water dragons before in the crystal world." After hearing this, the three people's emotions became slightly more stable, but the doubts in their hearts became deeper.
Originally these water dragons should go to Longwokou, but why do they appear here? Is there any unknown secret hidden in this? All kinds of questions came to mind, causing everyone to fall into deep thought...
Song Yijin had no time to think too much and could only concentrate on driving the belt forward. The three water dragons swam more than a hundred meters ahead and opened up a path, appearing particularly flexible and spiritual. Until this moment, Song Yijin felt a little relieved, thinking in his heart: With the water dragon leading the way, he would definitely be able to find the exit.
It turned out that his idea was correct. After about another hour or so, the underground river finally reached the top. Ahead is a cliff embankment that slopes upward, leading directly to the top of the cave. Song Yijin quickly jumped off his belt, and Jiang Xiaobao and Chen Mingzhi also fell down immediately. However, due to their unstable footing, they fell into the water and looked very embarrassed. In comparison, Zhao Xixi looked more elegant and calm. She jumped down from Song Yijin's body and stood firmly on the cliff. Looking at the ugliness of Jiang Xiaobao and Chen Mingzhi, she couldn't help laughing.
At this time, the three water dragons in the water seemed to have completed their mission. They twisted their bodies and splashed a beautiful water, then dived into the water and swam away quickly.
"Why do water dragons want to help us?"
"Water dragons are spiritual. The underground is their world. They saw us in danger, so they swam over to rescue us. "Take them out of danger."
"Didn't they arrive at Longwokou in Taizhou? How did they know we were here?"
"Maybe it's back again. However, I thought before that the well in the Dragon Valley under the Immortal is connected to this underground river."
"So "Have they been following us?"
"Maybe. Let's climb up quickly. The river is still rising."
It's much easier to climb up this slope. There are many fulcrums that can be grasped, and the slope is not large. The four of them climbed up quickly. Zhao Xixi asked Song Yijin while climbing. < /p>
"It's amazing. The four of us weigh nearly 500 pounds, and a belt can carry us flying!"
"Brother, why is this belt so obedient? What's the scientific principle?
"Cousin, besides the belt, can anything else be used to cross the river with a reed? Any reed or stick can be used to float on the water, right? "
"That's for sure. Even if you give your cousin a live snake, he can control it and fly on the water. Big cousin, right?"
"Big cousin, why don't you answer our questions? "
Song Yijin was confused by their chirping questions and didn’t know how to answer. The Kung Fu he had just performed was a last resort, which made the Dao Wu Kung Fu appear in front of people. So he said, "Everything is an illusion, not real. of. Don't believe your eyes. Climb quickly, maybe you can see the golden treasure when you climb up. "
But Zhao Xixi was not willing to let Song Yijin go. He had to tell him the reason why he knew martial arts. But no matter how the three people pressed him, Song Yijin would not answer directly.
This cliff The embankment is relatively high. Judging from the light above, it is not connected to the dome. It should be similar to a cliff. Song Yijin changed the subject at this time and asked Chen Mingzhi, "Honestly, do you have enough in your backpack?" Less gold dust? ”
“No, no, I just picked a little bit on my finger and took a look.” ”
“Impossible, if you just pick it a little bit, your backpack won’t react so much?” That vortex has been sucking your backpack. If I hadn't untied your backpack in time, the three of you would have been sucked into the vortex. "Song Yijin said.
"Chen Mingzhi, you are really a dog that can't change and eat shit, and you won't change despite repeated admonitions! "
"You must have collected a lot of gold powder in your bag along the way, otherwise how could it have such strong suction power and cause Zhao Xixi and I to be dragged down." "Jiang Xiaobao was so angry that his face turned green.
"Okay, there's no point talking about me now, my backpack is gone. "
At this time, the light above became much brighter. After all the hardships, the four people finally succeeded in climbing to the top. However, when they looked forward with expectation, they were surprised. DiscoverThe scene in front of them was completely different from what they imagined.
In addition to the cliff embankment they stood on, what appeared in front of them turned out to be a completely transparent and pure world! The ground, sky pillars and dome all present an amazing transparency, as if nothing can block the penetration of light. Due to the distance, they could not see clearly what secrets were hidden in the transparent ground below, and they were not sure whether there were unknown creatures or dangers.
Faced with such a strange situation, the four people were full of doubts and vigilance. They dare not act rashly for fear of getting into unexpected difficulties. After some discussion, they decided to stay on the top of the cliff for a while and take a rest while carefully observing the surrounding environment and looking for more clues to formulate their next action plan.
At this time, the wriggling creatures under the cliff seemed to feel a strange aura with their special tentacles.
