As her body fell rapidly, Gu Yuexi's heart was inexplicably immersed in an extremely "active" state, as if in the next second, it would break free from the constraints of her chest and "farewell" to her body.

Her brain was not much better, she was groggy and hazy, and her limbs were all out of control.

"Plop." Just when she was at a loss and fell into despair, a huge sound of falling water suddenly sounded in her ears. Then, the light disappeared and was replaced by the boundless darkness.

Of course, the darkness was not alone. It came with the salty river water. At this moment, they were like restless ants, rushing into her ears and nose crazily, prying open her mouth.

"Ahem..." Gu Yuexi was choked and couldn't breathe, and her eyes became extremely sore, but luckily, her brain returned to normal.

Realizing that she had fallen into the water, her uneasiness eased slightly. Although she was still not out of danger, there was still a glimmer of hope.

She calmed down and swam upwards desperately. Now her body was very weak. If she was deprived of oxygen for a long time, she would most likely faint.

Finally, a gleam of light appeared at the end of her sight. It was extremely weak and erratic, like reality and yet suddenly like a dream.

On the other side, I don't know how long it took before Wang Wenyuan gradually became conscious, but his body was still unable to move, so he couldn't open his eyes.

Fortunately, his sense of smell and hearing were very sensitive at the moment, which allowed him to quickly realize that he was surrounded by rapid water, and the air was filled with an extremely strong fishy smell.

Huh, it's this annoying smell again. He couldn't help but complain in a low voice, and his mood fell to the bottom, but it was quickly replaced by a kind of ecstasy from the heart, and his body could move freely.

Seeing this, Wang Wenyuan first stretched his slightly numb limbs, and then opened his eyes eagerly.

"Not good." Along with a tremor, his mood made another 360-degree turn.

Could it be that misfortune has struck again?

No, no one would be happy if they were imprisoned in a dirty iron cage with a group of vicious red giant crabs crawling around it!

But after trembling, Wang Wenyuan still forced himself to calm down. The giant crab did not take his life, but imprisoned him. In this case, why not calm down and find a way to escape?

Thinking of this, he simply grabbed the cage wall, squinted his eyes, and looked around.

The strange thing is that he clearly heard the sound of rough water, but the water in front of him was surprisingly calm, like a mirror; in addition, he seemed to be the only "prisoner" in this area, because he could not see other iron cages.

Wang Wenyuan's heart suddenly went cold, thinking how could he, a mere mortal, receive such "courteous treatment"? He was really "flattered".

However, the fun is yet to come.

About two minutes later, a giant crab suddenly crawled towards him, and then "gently" opened the iron door with its heavy crab claws, signaling him to come out quickly.

Wang Wenyuan was unmoved. The previous scene of the giant crab killing the sage still lingered in his mind, making him instinctively feel a sense of resistance to such a behemoth.

Seeing his hesitation, the giant crab put its claws into the iron cage and clamped it tightly.

Seeing this, Wang Wenyuan's body couldn't help but tremble slightly again, thinking that if the giant crab wanted to kill him, it would probably be the same as crushing an ant to death.

But he was wrong. Instead of killing him, the giant crab deliberately relaxed its claws a little, and then slowly crawled sideways.

Wang Wenyuan looked at this unusual scene in front of him with some confusion, and his mood was quite complicated. He didn't know what was waiting for him next.

"Don't talk, hold your breath." Just as he was lost in his chaotic thoughts, a majestic and deep voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

Wang Wenyuan quickly looked around, trying to figure out the source of the sound, but before he could look around, his vision turned pitch black, and at the same time, water with a fishy smell rushed into his throat.

He was coughing for a while, but he had no choice but to hold his breath and hope to surface soon.

However, to his disappointment, the giant crab seemed to be still diving, so that it disappeared without a trace from the surface of the water in just 15 seconds.

"Damn it." Wang Wenyuan's heart immediately sank to the bottom. After all, he chose to hold his breath in an unexpected situation, so the limit of what he could endure was about 40 seconds. If he couldn't breathe oxygen by then, he would definitely confess.

Go here.

Similar to Wang Wenyuan's situation, Gu Yuexi was also wandering between life and death at this time. Although she was only four or five meters away from the water, her body became limp due to the poisonous effects of being bitten by red ants, and she also appeared

Symptoms of fever all over the body and confusion.

"Alas." Seeing herself sinking slowly, she, who had always refused to admit defeat, actually sighed, thinking that the most desperate thing in the world was to be helpless in the face of impending death.

But sometimes, things that seem irreversible often give you a big reversal at the last moment.

For example, Gu Yuexi, who was about to pass out, inexplicably noticed a tentacle pressing against her back, but before she could react, her body was "pushed" out of the water by a powerful force.

The sudden change made her heart suddenly rise to her throat. On the one hand, she was glad that she had a chance to survive, but on the other hand, she couldn't help but wonder what was hidden under the water?

It was similar to the roar of a yellow-haired monster, with several tentacles and extraordinary power. She had never heard of such an existence since she was a child.

In a daze, she was hit hard on the river beach by this huge force, and immediately fell into a coma.

"Haha, I didn't expect that, Miss Gu, her life is quite tough." About two minutes later, Li You'er actually walked up to Gu Yuexi; she looked quite embarrassed, not only breathing heavily, but also her delicate red dress

The clothes also had several damages and even a few sharp thorns hanging on them.

She first leaned down and briefly checked Gu Yuexi's injuries, then took out two dark brown pills from the package she carried with her and put them into Gu Yuexi's mouth.

"This herb is very suitable for you, but it has some side effects." She said to herself and glanced around.

Suddenly, she seemed to have discovered something and walked straight to the water.

At this time, the underground river water became inexplicably turbid and cold, as if a glass of constant-temperature water had been filled with a large number of ice cubes in a short period of time.

"It turns out that it was Idamoti who saved her." Li You'er muttered, her words filled with affirmation but also a little bit of confusion.

After a moment of silence, her eyes were attracted by a flash of light not far away. It was sometimes bright and sometimes dim. At first glance, it looked like a candlelight swaying in the breeze.

Motivated by curiosity, Li You'er slowly walked towards the light. Gu Yuexi hadn't woken up yet anyway, so she had nothing to do, so it was time to stretch her muscles.

Strangely, the light was located in the middle of the cave, and she happened to pass by there just now, but she didn't see anything.

With questions in mind, she stepped on the rough cave wall and quickly reached the middle of the cave.

"Why...why did a cave appear?" Li Youer's eyes widened, wondering whether this cave could be invisible?

"How is that possible?" She couldn't help but laugh out loud, laughing at her own rich imagination.

After another rough look, she found that the cave was in the shape of a funnel, with a small and narrow entrance, but the farther inside, the larger the space became. In addition, there were several vague pictures painted on the walls on both sides of the cave.

The content of these pictures is very simple, that is, a group of black dwarfs are running desperately towards the south, followed by a group of white savages; the savages are of different types, some have one eye, some have horns, and they use

He slashed the dwarf with sharp swords, dismembered him alive, and finally ate him cruelly.

Li Youer stood still next to the picture, then recited a very difficult to pronounce spell, and then an incredible scene appeared, her eyes slowly turned from black to blue.

After that, she smiled slightly and looked at all the pictures to collect information.

About 5 minutes later, a lengthy text appeared in her mind. After brain analysis, integration, and refinement, she quickly understood the central idea expressed in the picture.

In short, in the mid-11th century BC, three Bodhi tribes from the eastern part of Brukba entered the hinterland of Assam along the Brahmaputra Valley. They plundered the Negritos there.

Anyone who dared to resist them would be demoted as a slave, and then handed over to the nobles and warriors to deal with them as they pleased.

Because the Negritos belong to the dwarf race and the Bodhisattva people come from the Himalayas with a harsh climate in the north, they are referred to as black dwarfs and white savages respectively.

As for "One Eye" and "Horn", they contain a large degree of artistic processing, and may refer to a certain leader of the Bodhia tribe who wears an eyepatch and the main livestock they raise, the yak.

Continuing walking inside, Li Youer made new discoveries, such as messy hieroglyphs, broken bones, burnt charcoal, exquisite bronzes... and even, a wooden box?

"It's really strange that a wooden box that was built more than 3,000 years ago can be preserved to this day." She whispered and walked quickly to the box.

The box is about 50 centimeters long and 30 centimeters wide. The box is dark red and made of sandalwood. Although the cave is humid and hot, there is no trace of decay on the surface of the wooden box except for some ash and dirt.

"Oh?" Li Youer guessed at the items that might be stored in the wooden box, and planned to pry open the wooden box to find out.

"Stop." Before he could reach the wooden box, a cold voice suddenly sounded behind him. Needless to say, it was Gu Yuexi's slightly cold voice.

"What's the matter?" Li Youer turned around with a smile, but she felt a little dissatisfied in her heart.

"Hand over the wooden box." Gu Yuexi said crisply, and suddenly, a long knife with a cold light appeared in her hand.
