In the evening, Luo Kai continued to dig hard, but the rock foundation was unexpectedly deep, and the tunnel was not ventilated. If it was dug very deeply, the already turbid oxygen would be completely gone. But if it was diverted, it would mean that it would be digging in vain a few days ago.

After thinking about it, he continued to dig down with the idea of ​​giving it a try. He already felt that the soil was a little different, and it became compact, with a lot of fine sand. This situation was buried when laying the foundation and it should be dug through quickly. But he didn't know where the exit would be after the foundation was dug. If he was still in prison, the hope of living would be very slim. This was a gamble to lose his life, and he had to gamble.

About two hours later, a sense of nothingness came from the iron cone in his hand, and a narrow crack appeared on the rock foundation. It was not difficult to pass through with his current body shape. What is strange is that there was nothing on the other side of the foundation. Luo Kai carefully crawled over. This was not the ground, but a quiet underground space, which was pitch black and blank, as if there was no end.

Luo Kai carefully groped against the wall slowly. At this time, a sensation suddenly came from the dark and quiet underground space, as if someone had arrived here. Luo Kai was sweating all over and turned around and looked at it tremblingly.

The shaking candlelight illuminates the dark space. It seems to be a vaulted underground building similar to an air-raid shelter. Rows of huge bookshelves piled up the entire space. A thin old man with loose hair was walking towards this side with a candle.

Luo Kai hurriedly hid in a sunken beside him and carefully took out the sharply polished iron cone from his armpit. The other party did not look like a guard, but a prisoner.

The skinny old man walked directly towards Luo Kai's hiding place, and before he got close, he smiled and said, "Young man, don't be so nervous, I've been waiting for you for a long time." A big mouse came out of his chicken coop-like hair and squeaked twice.

Luo Kai suppressed the fear in his heart and slowly revealed his body. He asked with a trembling voice: "Who are you...?" He instinctively spoke the same language.

The old man stared at Luo Kai for a while and said, "It doesn't matter who I am, but it's difficult for you to escape from the Nanya Island Prison. Nanya Island is surrounded by the sea and is dozens of nautical miles away from the nearest land. Even if you can escape from this ghost place, you can't swim to the land."

"You... do you want to help me? Or are you leaving here too?"

"No, this place may be unbearable for you, but it is the safest place in the world for me."

The old man stroked his beard that had grown to his chest and continued, "Since Xiao Hui is willing to give you food, it proves that you are not bad by nature. I can help you leave here, but you should also do me a favor after you go out."

Luo Kai suppressed the tension in his heart and said carefully: "What's the busy thing?"

The old man pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you know the sea clan?"

Luo Kai thought for a while and shook his head in a daze.

The old man frowned slightly, as if he was a little dissatisfied with Luo Kai's ignorance. After a while, he sighed and said, "Forget it, the more you know, the more trouble you will be."

Then he pointed to his head and said, "The prison also stocks many hounds on the island. Even if you can leave the prison, you will be noticed by the hounds. If you don't have any skills, they will tear you apart."

Luo Kai's face changed and he gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you, my uncle, even if I die, I will die outside!"

The old man laughed: "It's not that easy to die if you have an old man to help you, huh... I can pass on you a way to swim in the water, and you can have the opportunity to float to the land with the east wind. Of course, if you are eaten by some big fish in the sea, there is no way. Come here and let me take a good look at you."

Luo Kai was stunned for a moment, and saw that the old man's expression was very serious, so hesitantly walked over.

The old man's dead tree-like arm stretched forward and pulled Luo Kai in front of him. Luo Kai only felt that the old man's arm was pinching his bones like an iron hoop, making his bones hurt. It seemed that he was an old Chinese doctor who could pinch his bones.

The old man first looked at the healed wound on Luo Kai’s chest. While groping around him, he murmured to himself: “You have good physical fitness. You should have been injected with advanced genetic medicine since childhood. The bones and muscles are very strong and the cell division is very fast. However, genetic medicine has both advantages and disadvantages and will greatly extract vitality. Moreover, your body has not grown up yet. After being closed here for so long, your physical development has been affected. Alas, what a pity!”

Luo Kai couldn't help asking, "What is genetic medicine?"

The old man did not answer, looked at Luo Kai's eyebrows with a look of confusion, and he pondered for a while and said, "If you want to solve the disadvantages of genetic medicine, you can only practice physical skills to strengthen your body. You have never practiced it."

Then he took out a piece of worn-out animal sack paper from his pocket and handed it over: "I have a set of physical skills here. If you practice diligently in the future, you will gradually make up for your physical shortcomings. This set of physical skills is called "Soft Soft Body Technique". It may be more painful in the early stage of practice, but suffering is the best way to stimulate your physical potential. "

Luo Kai took it in a daze, and could see that there were many humanoid patterns on the animal sculpting paper, and he said in confusion: "What is physical skills?"

This time the old man patiently explained: "Physical skills are a way to strengthen the body. Humans are born with weak physical constitution. If you have the will, practice well and you will find its benefits in the future."

After saying that, he suddenly pressed the back of his head gently. Luo Kai's head was stunned and lost consciousness. He didn't know how long it took, but he felt a tingling pain in his armpits. He opened his eyes in a daze. He was still in the underground space. His upper clothes had been untied, his armpits were covered with blood, and something seemed to be portrayed on his skin.

The old man was bandaging his wrist with a piece of rag, and he could see that his wrist was also covered with blood: "Don't be nervous, I engraved a set of water-removing totem on you. After entering the water, you will naturally find its magical use. If there is no condition in this place, you can only use blood to portray it."

Luo Kai wiped the blood on his body with his clothes, and was full of questions. He thought for a while and said, "What is the water-breathing totem? Big... uncle, I don't know your name yet, why do you... want to help me?"

The old man took away the big gray squirrel on his head and said with a smile: "My name is Shuisou. People outside like to call me the Shuispeaker. The water-removing totem is simply a way to quickly adapt to the water environment. Life comes from the ocean, and its adaptability to the underwater environment has been firmly engraved in the depths of the genes. The water-removing totem just induced it.

As for why I help you, I just want to ask you for a little help. From now on, you will come to me every night and I will teach you physical skills."

Luo Kai stood up shakingly, remained silent for a while, pointed to the big mouse on his head and asked, "Did you raise the big dust?"

The old man teased the mouse in his hand and said, "Well, I think this little thing is quite spiritual and I just kept it when I was bored."

"Is that the food you asked Dasha to give me?"

The old man shook his head: "Young man, don't underestimate the wisdom of animals. If you let it go, it will thank you and give you food. Okay, it's almost dawn, so go back quickly."
