This is a desperate situation with no hope of improvement in sight.
Niu Jingang looked ruthless and determined, but he also regretted it.
He realized that without Xu Yan's decision-making, he would have been too reckless after all.
He knew that there might be big guys in the swampy waters, but he rashly led the team deep into the swamp without knowing it. This was simply a way to die!
But what can he do? He just wants to move forward quickly, meet the group of people who may exist, and then ask for help...
After all, as Ergou said before, Xu Yan would be in more danger if they delayed longer.
But now, it's all over.
Several people were nervous as if facing a powerful enemy, staring at the huge head.
But just when they thought that the snake eel king had torn apart the inflatable raft and would rush over at any time, the strange thing was that the snake eel king actually started to swim around the tree and did not get close.
"Brother, it seems that it doesn't dare to get close to this tree?" The third child and the second dog were both a little confused, but not sure.
Niu Jingang frowned and stared closely, wondering: "It seems that there is something wrong with this tree?"
Several people quickly checked the whole tree, only to notice that the trees growing in the swamp were not dry, but the leaves themselves were very strange, and they were very thin and clinging to the trunk, like a layer of down.
Moreover, there is a layer of oil between these small leaves, and there seems to be this kind of smelly oil on the trunk, seeping into the water, and floating around the trunk to form an oil layer of several meters.
"It smells really bad!" Ergou wiped his sniffing hand, his face immediately full of disgust, "It's greasy, no wonder it slipped when I climbed just now."
"It's a bit like poison repellent." Honglian was finally willing to talk to them.
Several people nodded wildly, and the third child blurted out: "It's more like Dr. Xu's improved anti-toxic ointment, ouch!"
Before he could finish his words, he was almost kicked into the water by Hong Lian.
"..." Niu Jinjiang's eyelids twitched, but he did not dare to scold Honglian and quickly changed the subject: "It seems that this big guy should be afraid of and hate this kind of grease. We should be safe for the time being!"
Hong Lian raised her hand and stretched out a branch, hitting the snake eel king on the big head.
The Snake Eel King roared angrily and tried to rush over to attack, but after being stained by the grease, he immediately retreated in disgust.
Everyone's eyes were completely brightened. Obviously, the guess was correct, this big guy was really afraid of these greases!
In other words, they were saved!
Several people were overjoyed, and Fu Dongliu almost cried with joy!
However, after the rejoicing, they rested for a long time, but their expressions became strange again.
"What's going on? Why doesn't this evil spirit leave?" Fu Dongliu looked at the cold pupils of the Snake Eel King, his voice trembling a little as he spoke.
"Isn't this called waiting for the rabbit?" Ergou bared his teeth and said, "We are the rabbits!"
"Shit, that's not the point of waiting for something to happen..." Lao San complained, and frowned a little, "Brother, you want to surround us without attacking, and you will continue to waste us, what should we do?"
Niu Jingang was silent.
He was also a little confused. He thought that the evil spirit would not dare to approach the big tree and would just walk around a few times before walking away, but it actually stayed!
It is definitely not possible to go down. If you leave the range of this big tree oil, you will die!
Just the few of them together wouldn't be enough to feed this snake eel king!
But if you continue to waste time on this tree, how can you ask for help? How can you help Xu Yan?
Seeing the snake eel king leisurely catching the living creatures in the water and continuing to consume them while eating, Niu Jingang was very anxious!
After just a few hours, Niu Jingang's eyes turned red and he gritted his teeth and said, "We can't waste it any longer!"
"Even if we meet those who are chasing Jin Yuanying later, they may not be able to catch up."
"Lao San, can you break through this swamp by yourself? If you can, then go find those people for help!"
The third child stood on the branch of a tree and looked forward. He shook his head and said, "No way, brother, the places where I can stay are too far apart. Without Hongmei to give me something to stand on, I won't be able to go very far without being trapped."
live."
Niu Jingang scratched his hair and was going crazy. He thought that the snake eel king was not daring to come close to him, so he was saved from a desperate situation, but it turned out that he was still in a desperate situation!
The original plan was to wait for the Snake Eel King to leave. They still had an inflatable raft available, so they took the opportunity to leave quickly.
Who would have thought that this guy wouldn't give them a chance and just wouldn't leave.
The third child can’t leave alone, what should I do?
If this snake eel king refuses to leave and continues to consume it like this, they may be consumed alive!
And what should Xu Yan do? Even if he can fool Jin Yuanying, if he is taken away, there will be no way to save him!
After thinking about it, Niu Jingang showed determination again.
"Inflate the other inflatable raft and get ready to leave!" Niu Jingang said coldly.
Honglian and others were startled, and asked anxiously: "What about you, brother?"
"Me?" Niu Jinjiang suddenly laughed, "I'm not important!"
"Xu Yan has saved us too many times, it's time we return the favor!"
"What's more, he is more important than me in resolving our bloodline curse!"
"He is a very particular person. If I die trying to save him, he will definitely help me fulfill my last wish and lead you to find a solution to the curse. He will definitely!"
"Brother!" Hong Lian and the others suddenly became anxious, their eyes turning red.
Obviously, Niu Jingang wanted to risk his life to give them a chance to leave and seek help.
Of course they couldn't accept it. Even if they really had no choice, they would rather die together than watch Niu Jingang die alone.
"I'll stay too!" Ergou suddenly said: "Big brother can't stop it alone, but we can still stop it if we try our best!"
"Let Hong Lian cooperate with Lao San and leave on the inflatable raft. As for Lao Fu, I'm giving you an advantage. It's useless to stay. Just follow the boat!"
Fu Dongliu looked at several people with extremely complicated expressions.
"No, we have to die together!" Neither Honglian nor Laosan were willing.
But Niu Jinjiang shook his head and said: "You all go away, I am enough."
"One more person can make the boat go faster, and no matter what happens later, more people will make the boat more powerful."
"I have a way. Combined with the flower and fruit wine, I should be able to stop it for a while."
"That's it. Anyway, if it wasn't for Xu Yan, we might have fallen into a trap and died."
Seeing that they wanted to fight again, Niu Jinjiang smiled and shook his head: "I am not discussing with you, but ordering you! I am ordering you in the name of Niujiadong!"
"Just do it and inflate the raft quickly!"
He said it in an understatement, but what he wanted to do was clearly to die!
Honglian and others could no longer hold back their tears and were unwilling to move.
"Follow it!" Niu Jingang suddenly became more stern, "For Doctor Xu and for the sake of our entire Niujiadong family, you have no time to spare and execute the order!"
"I'll give you three seconds. If you don't do it, I'll jump down immediately and fight for my life with it. Then we'll die together, a worthless death!"
As he spoke, he stood up directly, without any tragic or generous gesture, just as usual, but with incomparable determination.
"Brother..." Honglian had already burst into tears.
"Hongmei, I'll leave the rest to you!" Niu Jingang said with a smile: "Believe in my judgment, believe in Xu Yan, he will definitely be able to help our entire clan get rid of the curse!"
"I have foreseen that scene more than once, it can't be wrong!"
"Inflate the raft immediately!"
In the last sentence, Niu Jingang picked up the knife and made a gesture to jump into the water.
Lao San and the others knew there was no way out and had no choice. They could only wipe away their tears while taking out the inflatable raft to inflate it.
Several people on the tree were silent, and in the gloomy secret realm of the swamp, the atmosphere was extremely depressing.
Fu Dongliu's expression changed, and he took out a jade talisman with an arrowhead engraved on it from his arms.
He was silent and didn't say much. He tried his best to mobilize his Qi and cooperate with his hand skills to crush the jade talisman.
The next moment, a small stream of light exploded from the jade talisman, shooting straight into the sky!
In the astonishment of the Niu brothers and sisters, the stream of light quickly became larger as it rose, and finally penetrated directly through the clouds above the swamp secret realm and exploded with a bang!
The colorful stream of light was like fireworks, illuminating most of the secret swamp.
And those streams of light, with extremely strong penetrating power, went in all directions, causing the swamp to tremble!
Niu Jingang and others turned their heads in surprise, and then exclaimed, "Lao Fu!"
Fu Dongliu vomited blood, smiled bitterly and waved his hands. His whole appearance was rapidly aging, and he had aged back to the same state as when they first met.
"I'm fine..." Fu Dongliu said weakly and found a comfortable position to lean on the branch of a tree. "I came here to fulfill my dream of practicing in the secret realm of the Hundred Thousand Mountains. It's quite insightful!"
"I've been dragging you down so much that I can't help you. I can only do so much..."
"This is the Taoist Feiyun Arrow Talisman. Just wait a little longer, Brother Niu. Wait a little longer, maybe it will work..."
