When I woke up, I was already in the Laoye Temple.
"Brother Zhou, how are you feeling?" Lao Li asked with concern as soon as he saw me waking up.
"Lao Li?" As soon as I opened my eyes, I felt like the world was spinning, so I immediately closed them again.
"Brother Zhou," Lao Li called again.
"Lao Li, I'm fine, but I feel dizzy as soon as I open my eyes and want to vomit." I whispered, "How is the step-sheng? Has he found you? Is there anyone else with me?
Foreigner?" I asked as many people as I could remember in my memory, hoping that everyone would be safe and sound.
"Brother Zhou, don't worry. I have fished out Zhang Jisheng and the foreigner, and they have all woken up. The temple blessing in this temple contains a magical medicine passed down from previous generations of temple blessings. It is said that it can be used by all people who drown.
As long as you still have a breath when you fish it out, and you can swallow the medicine powder, you can ensure that everything is safe. This time, it was the medicine that saved the three of you." Lao Li said, then listened for a moment, maybe looking at me
His eyes were still closed, and he said again, "Brother Zhou, if you still feel uncomfortable, I will go and invite Miao Zhu over and let him take a look at you."
"Lao Li, no need. I should be suffering from low blood sugar. Give me a glass of glucose water and it will help me recover." I said, reluctantly opening my eyes and feeling that the degree of dizziness was still within my control, so I
Struggling to sit up.
"I guessed that the little brother from the Zhou family should have woken up by now, so I made a cup of ginger and jujube tea to help him get rid of the cold. He had been soaked in the water for too long, and his whole body was like ice cubes. The ginger
Jujube water can make people feel warmer." Lao Miaozhu suddenly appeared at the door of my room holding a bowl of something pitch-black and slowly walked towards me.
Lao Miao Zhu looked like he was in his early seventies. He bothered him to cook medicine and stew for me. I felt really sorry in my heart. After taking the ginger and jujube tea from him that night, I drank it down in one breath.
.
Not to mention, after drinking this bowl of slightly hot ginger-date tea, there was a slight layer of sweat on my back. It was this layer of sweat that made my back, which was originally as stiff as a steel plate, instantly soft and warm.
The whole person really felt like he was alive again.
"Old sir, thank you very much. After drinking this bowl of tea, I feel much better." I stood up and said respectfully towards the old temple.
Lao Miao Zhu nodded slightly towards me, "You have to have a good rest these days. Young man, please listen to Lao Miao's advice. You really can't go under the water of Lao Ye Temple. I dare not say anything else, but the waters of Lao Ye Temple
, I am too familiar with it. I can guarantee you that if it happens again, your life will definitely be taken away by the owner of the ancient city." After the old man finished speaking, he picked up the empty bowl I put on the table.
Then he slowly walked out of the wing.
Watching Lao Miao Zhu's back disappear at the door, I turned around and asked Lao Li, who seemed to be in a daze: "Lao Li, how did you discover us?"
"Actually, not long after you entered the water, I already noticed that something was wrong, because the guide rope kept vibrating, as if something was chewing on the bottom of the lake. So, I immediately activated the underwater information system and thought
I want to tell you to be careful, there may be potential dangers. However, something shocking happened to me. The underwater information system was destroyed at some point, so I can't contact you at all. What's more, what's even more dangerous is,
Once this system is destroyed, you will not be able to communicate with each other underwater. I realized the seriousness, so I put on a diving suit and prepared to go into the water to look for you. But at this time, Zhang Jisheng floated up along the guide rope.
, but his oxygen tank and breathing mask had been lost, and his diving suit was in tatters. It seemed that he had been attacked underwater. When I saw this, I hurriedly pulled him to the boat. "Old Li must have noticed that I had not responded,
So there was a pause.
I want to connect what Lao Li saw on the lake with what we encountered at the bottom of the lake. However, I have already discovered the unreasonable factors. The first one is time.
We probably went into the water for almost an hour before we discovered the mural. However, Lao Li said that there was a problem with the guide rope not long after we entered the water. Moreover, after discovering that there was a problem with the guide rope, it was only time for him to change into a diving suit.
, Zhang Jisheng had already surfaced. If Lao Li was not lying, the time under the water was different from the time on the surface.
Due to the difference in time, I suddenly thought of the long dream I had in the black sedan. It was obvious that I went through the entire process of the sacrificial ceremony in the sedan, but Andrew said that I only stayed in the sedan for less than ten seconds.
This time difference may be the same as the time difference between Lao Li on the lake surface and us at the bottom of the lake. The principle is the same.
If there really is such a time difference, then the Xiangyu that was sucked into the wolf tooth stone pillar will have been at the bottom of the lake for a long time, and the oxygen bottle has long been exhausted.
"Old Li, after you rescued Zhang Jisheng, how did you find me and the foreigner?" I thought for a moment, then looked at Old Li and asked.
"After picking up Zhang Jisheng, the wind and rain on the lake suddenly became stronger. The wind and waves were very strong. Our boat was blown away from its original route. However, you haven't come up yet, so I desperately tried to get the boat back to its original route.
But the wind was so strong that the boat blew further and further away." Lao Li listened again and looked at me with his big eyes open.
"What's wrong?" I felt nervous as he stared at me.
"Brother Zhou, you may not believe what I'm going to say next, but it really does exist." Lao Li's eyes were staring ahead, as if he was lost in thought.
"Lao Li, tell me." I was already a little anxious. I felt that Lao Li must have encountered something incredible. Otherwise, a person like him wouldn't have such a heavy expression if it was an ordinary incident.
.
"Brother Zhou, do you believe there are ghosts in this world?"
Lao Li did not stop to listen to my comments, but continued: "At that time, I was the only boat in the entire Laoye Temple waters, and the entire lake was covered with rolling waves, and among the turbulent waves, I actually saw
I got a sedan, a black sedan."
"What?"
What Lao Li said was beyond my expectation. I originally thought that after experiencing so much, I would be able to accept any supernatural phenomena. But I never knew that as soon as he said the word "black sedan", my whole body and mind became violent.
The ground trembled.
"Brother Zhou, don't be afraid. The black sedan just passed by without hurting us. So, if you don't offend it, it won't come to trouble you. After the black sedan disappears, I will
I found you and the foreigner floating on the water." Lao Li probably thought that I was frightened, so he pretended to be relaxed and said.
"Lao Li, how long did it take from the time we entered the water to the time you found me?" I wanted to make sure that there was really a gap between the time at the bottom of the lake and the time on the lake surface.
"Probably, less than an hour." Lao Li did not answer immediately. He pondered for a moment, probably making an estimate.
It was less than an hour, but the time we stayed underwater must have been more than two hours. What happened to the time difference of more than an hour?
Theoretically, the speed of time is related to gravity. However, the bottom of the lake and the surface of the lake are in the same atmosphere. It is a bit incredible to say that there is a difference in gravity between them.
"Lao Li, have you found Xiangyu on the lake?" I asked. Although I thought the chance was slim, I still felt unwilling to give up and wanted to confirm again.
Lao Li lowered his head and did not answer me.
At this time, Lao Miao Zhu suddenly ran over and shouted with excitement: "Good news, good news, you two, the girl who disappeared in the waters of Lao Ye Temple is back."
